Coflation
Coflation is the construct explored by fiduciaries and planners, Tom Sedoric and Casey Snyder, and beneficial for financial planners and their clients.
Traditional measures of inflation (rising prices) or deflation and disinflation (falling or stagnating prices) often assume a linear trajectory in one direction over time. Both the CPI (Consumer Price Index) and PPI (Producer Price Index) and other measures of inflation typically suggest prices rise or fall in one direction. In practicality, individuals can experience periods of high inflation (i.e., rising health care costs, medication, or educational expenses) and falling or stagnating income or earnings (disinflation or deflationary pressures) simultaneously. Inflation and deflation may be more situational than traditional financial planning tools suggest, and planners and their clients should consider life stages and multiple situational variables in constructing a prudent financial plan.
