I understand there may be flaws in my logic, but what flaws were there? You basically said I was wrong and the market believes otherwise, but you didn't explain how my beliefs on the varying velocity of money wouldn't or couldn't create inflation in the next year or so.
That chart kind of proves my point though. People are moving from stocks to bonds as risk in stocks increases, yet the long-term outlook of the economy(10+ years) is largely unchanged. Despite this, the government is injecting tons of money during a time of a global quarantine that will eventually be lifted. When that lifts, people will buy a surge of supplies that they are depleting during this time, leading to a spike in demand in most things. Am I seeing this wrong?
That spike in demand will pass, and we will (we hope) settle down to a steady state. That steady state is (in the market's opinion) not much different from the steady state that we would have had without the pandemic. That's why the market is still predicting the 10-years-out state as being the same as it predicted before this crisis.
