A rise in the price of financial assets is a fall in the price of money,
so is a rise in the price of assets inflation or deflation?  Or is it that
the rate of interest is not a price (as Schumpeter pointed out),
and therefore the price of assets cannot be an element in either
inflation or deflation of the general level of prices?
