The constant, driving, inflation as constantly pushed on u by the federal reserve people, is constantly reducing the quantity of what my dollar will buy. And I am certain that it reduces the amount that other fol dollars will buy as well. And the unfortunate part of the problem is tha I do not have a magic button to press thatraises my income to compensate for that. And the terrible news is that for some reason my investments do not suddenly become more valuable because the dollars to buy a share have increased.So I am caught beneath a rock sitting on top of a hard place. And the fact i that each time previously that there has been a sudden increase of available money there has been inflation as a result.
It looks to me as though preparations are in place for an incredible fuel price gouging attack as soon as a recovery gets going. Greed running rampant and all else be dammed, going for the max profit, no matter who dies!
I suppose that for those who see no other purpose in life except gaining the most possible profit, another chance to do so is a welcome event. Oh Well.
A very interesting concept. And not following the crowd is usually god advice, no matter what. Unless that crowd is exiting a place on fire. Then following is wise.
Between low mortgage interest and generally low interest the builders can run not much risk building houses of the much more expensive flavor. That is a continuation of a trend that has been getting stronger every week for the past 2 years in my area. But it is not the first time. 15 years ago it was building commercial buildings without anybody ready to move in. That was just before the crunch when suddenly many closed down.
Is it a "for real" boom or not? Investing now and watch carefully o as to sell while there are still buyers eager to buy. Things do change.
That last paragraph is the most disturbing, as it points clearly at the damage done by inflation. Taking our dollar off the gold standard was the start of the fed being able to do far more serious damage to the USA economy, and also damage other economies around the world. Sort of like an atomic bomb, except slower and more subtle.
And clearly the demand for gold is based quite a bit on how much folks are hedging against the anticipated inflation. We all know that it is coming, but we don't know exactly when, nor how bad it will be this time.
Quite interesting and certainly informative. And it seem that somehow it will have an effect on my own wealth, no matter how far I am from any exposure in the area. So it will be interesting to watch and learn.
"Based on interest rates remaining low" is quite a gamble, given that the time for a change is approaching. When that happens there will certainly be a bit of discomfort and anguish, along with many denials that it was obvious that it was approaching. The problem is that some errors are fatal but the fatality is not immediate.
