Great, then surely you can cite me the source you used to predict that general inflation (not, ahem, some cherry picked real estate numbers) would be higher than 7% over the life of this bond, producing the negative interest you were teasing?
Not for five years they aren't! That chart ends in a few months. It's just reflecting CURRENT inflation rates. Again I ask, because everyone insists on cherry picking their way around this: Where is the source predicting a >7.12% inflation rate over the next five years? There is none. That's looney-tunes conspiracy nonsense.
Right, calling this some kind of talk radio conspiracy theory is completely ignorant. Go to the analysts at any major bank and see what they've got in their models. Or better yet, as you mentioned, go to the fed itself. And you KNOW, the fed is understating, not overstating those numbers.
