The inflation vs deflation debate rages on. To help FT Alphaville readers, we’ve compiled a handy-list of what we’re calling inflationistas — those who are publicly betting on high or even hyper-inflation, and deflationistas — those predicting a downward spiral in prices.
-ista 这个词尾的意思是「a person who is very enthusiastic about something非常热衷于…的人」
fashionista 是服装设计师；对服装时尚很感兴趣的人
Clintonista 是A supporter or adherent of Bill Clinton or his policies.
按理说，inflationist 的意思就是a person who favors inflation, especially of currency，不需要再利用-ista 词尾造一个新的出来才是。不过财经领域毕竟是有钱说了算，牛气冲天，造一个「inflationista」表达「预计会发生通膨的人」，跟词尾本身的意思不是那么贴，那有什么办法呢，有钱就是爹娘
(initial capital letter) an artificial language developed between 1924 and 1951, based primarily upon the Romance languages, and intended mainly as a common international language for scientists.
Inflationistas – this is the crowd that believes someday the trillions of dollars pumped into the markets by the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan, European Central Bank, et al will eventually result in massive, runaway inflation.
