Small business shows disinflation in first quarter 1982
NFIB survey indicates price decreases rose five points from January to March and the index of price decreases climbed over 33 percent. Economists estimate about 5.3 percent annual deflation across small firms with wholesalers, manufacturers, and retailers cutting prices due to weak sales and financing costs. Commentators warn no clear recovery yet while debtors face tighter real repayments as prices stay flat or fall. Washington’s deficit actions and confidence are pivotal for turning the outlook. The piece includes quotes from Purdue economist William Dunkelberg and NFIB president John W. Johnson.
