Episode 602: Inflation Then and Now, or: The 'Where Were You' Accusation

Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/40qjm3u

I enjoyed a wonderful dinner with my long-time friend, John Mauldin, last week, and something we discussed is going to be the subject of today’s Dividend Cafe.

John is one of the most well-known newsletter writers in our industry, and I have been reading him every single week – no exceptions – for 23 years. Around ten years ago, after a shared CNBC appearance, he and I became friends and quickly connected the dots that John actually knew my late father and even published some of his writings back in the early 1980s. A small world, indeed. Well, since then, John and I developed a friendship of our own, I am a regular speaker and panelist at his annual Strategic Investment Conference, and we are known to do dinners together that can last for four hours, with all aspects of the economy, the market, the Fed, and the American political system on the table for discussion.

At this dinner event last week, John brought something up that inspired me for this week’s Dividend Cafe. You will not be surprised to hear that it is going to involve the Fed, inflation, and all the adjacent topics that so energetically fill the pages of Dividend Cafe quite often.

So jump on into the Dividend Cafe …
