The battle between inflation and deflation is the most important thing for investors to watch right now, says Adam Lass. Fears of falling prices are rife in Washington today. But the inflation cycle will come around again soon, especially with all the new money being pumped into the economy by the Fed. Adam says that’s why investors should buy the PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bearish ETF (NYSE:UDN).

Governments and central banks around the world are engaged in a fierce battle with asset price deflation. As Byon King says, “It’s like Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow. There’s no relief from the suffering.”
Eric Roseman says the Fed will eventually triumph over deflation with by a massive expansion of credit.
In the meantime, he recommends a defensive portfolio weighting: 50% cash, 10% gold, and 20% in reverse ETFs, such as Short Dow30 ProShares (AMEX:DOG) or Short S&P500 ProShares (AMEX:SH).

Yesterday, traders sent the Dow down a record 777 points. Today, the mood is more upbeat. The Dow is up 363 points. Traders clearly still want to believe the government can still help sort out Wall Street’s problems.
Justice Litle isn’t fully sold on the bailout. But he says it isn’t an option to let Mr. Market sort himself out this time: the US is too leveraged to follow Andrew Mellon’s “liquidationist” approach during the Great Depression.
That’s why the feds will do whatever it takes to prop up the system… and run the dollar into the ground. And that’s why you should buy gold now.

Banks still aren’t lending, says Eric Roseman in The Sovereign Society.
The LIBOR lending rate between banks is 81 basis points above the Federal Fund’s target rate of 2%.
This means even prime borrowers are struggling to raise capital, and it signals that the credit crisis has a ways to run yet.
Further tightening of credit also spells trouble for stocks. Eric advises investors to stay parked in cash, alternative investments and reverse ETFs…
