This chart is borderline unbelievable ...Anonymous,<br /><br /><i>This chart is borderline unbelievable (the data pattern I mean, not the chart).

Nearly every one is unique.<br /><br />For the most part, I don't even attempt to update charts any longer. I just make new ones. There are 240,000 series in FRED, and many of my charts use more than one series at a time. The permutations seem nearly endless.<br /><br /><i>What work did your parents do in that town?</i><br /><br />My dad was the bank manager. My mom worked in Spokane (much larger city 30 miles north) as a bank teller. My family seems to have a numbers gene.Stagflationary Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568993350246477976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-69212957717598930942014-12-17T18:03:44.486-08:002014-12-17T18:03:44.486-08:00Mr Slippery,

My brain wants to reject it.<br /><br />These hundred year + charts always creep-me-out when a pattern lasts that long. I think it's because even tho I know "it's NEVER different this time" our brain is always telling us how "exceptional" now is (and, of course, the future). And this one, showing a limit (in America, there are NO limits!!!)<br /><br /><br />You should keep topic-indexes for your charts. Would be interesting so see other "hundred year charts". Hopefully there's no 100 year parabolas lurking about somewhere!<br /><br /><br />(Interesting about the rail-line through your old home town. That line is a bike trail over many parts of it now. If it's ever completely linked-up it would probably be the longest bike trail on the planet. What work did your parents do in that town?)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515247115132134144.post-13586446159105182602014-12-17T16:17:32.169-08:002014-12-17T16:17:32.169-08:00They aren't making any more land to set dog ca...They aren't making any more land to set dog carriers on, so I think you on to something.<br /><br />Mr Slipperynoreply@blogger.com
