Inflation is basically the exact definition of the change in USD's value relative to goods & services.

Unless you are arguing we currently don't have any inflation, which would be a tough sell :)

Also this last CPI report oil & gas pulled inflation down whereas just about everything else pulled it up. Food is hot, but a lot of other things are as well including non-commodity service based industries.

This is what I'm arguing. Do you deny it?

In a bear market, you don't have to outrun the bear to get ahead. You only have to outrun your friends.
