Inflation vs. Deflation: What Are Investors Facing? [View article]
Unfortunately, world history demonstrates that the future can neither be predicted reliably nor, even less, can it be controlled by private or public elites.
Human beings can't even define the terms of their conversations honestly. Instead, they speak with the vocabulary of various dogmas, from Catholicism and Islam to Marxism, Keynsianism and Austrian School economics.
Also, if we can't even predict the weather reliably, how can we predict the fluctuations of things that are far more complicated, such as the health and prosperity of companies and countries?
I agree that we have to try but we don't have to pretend that our predictions are more educated guesses forced on us by our financial needs.
Yelling and insulting each other is also inevitable but it usually makes everything worse.
