In recent economic news, headlines are being dominated by concerns over\u00a0rising bond yields<\/a>. Increased bond yields are a sign of a possible spike in inflation and, logically, they call for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in order to prevent that inflation.<\/p>\n

Higher bond yields also mean there is a competitive alternative to stocks for investors \u2013 both factors that could trigger a plunge in the stock market.<\/p>\n

If one studies the\u00a0real<\/em>\u00a0history behind the stock market crash during the Great Depression, they will find that it was the\u00a0Federal Reserve\u2019s interest rate hikes<\/a>\u00a0that caused and prolonged the disaster after they had created an environment of cheap and easy money throughout the 1920s. Former Chairman Ben Bernanke openly admitted the Fed was responsible back in 2002 in a\u00a0speech honoring Milton Friedman<\/a>. He stated:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn short, according to Friedman and Schwartz, because of institutional changes and misguided doctrines, the banking panics of the Great Contraction were much more severe and widespread than would have normally occurred during a downturn. Let me end my talk by abusing slightly my status as an official representative of the Federal Reserve. I would like to say to Milton and Anna: Regarding the Great Depression. You\u2019re right, we did it. We\u2019re very sorry. But thanks to you, we won\u2019t do it again.\u201d<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This then raises the question \u2013 inflation or deflation? Will the Fed \u201cdo it again?\u201d<\/p>\n

Probably not in exactly the same way, but we will see elements of both inflation and deflation soon in the form of\u00a0stagflation<\/a>.<\/p>\n
