>The dollar valued against itself a year earlier, and a year in the future. That is the interest rate or yield of the asset if held. It should go up, but right now it goes down. You’re saying there should be deflation?

Are you saying that you think Apple Maps is directing him to drive along a fractal instead of a road?

You would have to take an implausible number of wrong turns to have a chance of making it anywhere near that long a drive. For an example of a shorter but still entirely unreasonable path: Head straight north all the way to the pole, contin
