Inventories point to slower growth ahead


The point is very simple. Business needs to cut inventories because sales are growing too slowly relative to inventories (see above chart; click on the chart to enlarge). The only way to do it is to cut production.

This is one of the reasons I believe business is going to slowdown for some time until the growth of inventories is in line with sales growth.

This environment should be attractive for bonds.
