Kondratieff lives. The FED is aways in the act after the fact and can
only make things a little better or worse at the margin. They haven't
the power to repeal the long term effects of demand and supply. Nor
does any other single group.
Deflation was done by 2003 and won't be back for 2 1/2 decades. We're
just seeing a little contra-trend correction now. Use it to get rid
of any remaining investments geared to deflation.
