Excuse me, but M & T explicitly based their measures on production rates of selected industries, NOT on price.  The fact that they use the same term as a measure based on consumer price/interest rate cycles (which you acknowledge has broken down) is regrettable but not relevant to THEIR predictions.  You have this irritating habit of conflating your pet composite theories with the ones put forth by people like M & T and S & H, then when YOUR predictions prove false claim that this invalidates the people you are borrowing from.  Their predictions may prove true or not, but they can only be invalidated on their own terms.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices that.  On the other hand, at least he's actually willing to discuss the theories.

To be fair, I don't think it's a reaction to the election, as he was the same way before the election when everyone was assuming a Clinton win.
