New PPI numbers are out from October. They are up .3% whatever that means. It was less than expected. Are we continuing deflation or is inflation now in the pipeline.

I don't want a deflation/inflation argument here. I just want someone to break down the new numbers and tell me if there is EVIDENCE of more deflation or coming inflation.

definitely evidence of slowing inflation(and coming deflation), by traditional definitions. Austrians would say that you can have inflation even with FALLING prices, as long as the money supply is increasing. M-3 has actually been DECREASING recently, although estimates of M-3 are not official. M-2 is still increasing.
