Brantley - Cut it out, your unhealthy fixation with relevant facts is beginning to interfere with my delusions.
Your heading seems to suggest that, when there is little actual international trade going on and so good-hearted speculators and hedge funds try to generously support the price of everything, this pressages stagflation?
Won't those selfless acts, combined with governments throwing de-valued trillions onto the problem, (lighting the blue touch paper and standing well back) somehow just keep things going until real things start happening again?
Kindly restrict yourself to ill-informed, or fact-free comment, you are upsetting the other patrons.
