    I recently looked up the “PPI: crude materials for further processing” for the recession/depression in the 70’s and early 80’s expecting to see a large drop in prices once interest rates spiked and the economy restructured. Why do you think this did not happen?

    There was dis-inflation, but not deflation. Here are more data:
