If this continues you can plan on seeing Obama back and I'm not sure interest rates will remain low as long as they had initially planned either. I don't have any big things to buy anytime soon so I say bring on the inflation. That's probably inevitable anyway with all this QE we've been doing to keep the ship afloat.

Here's the report if you want to read it:
