Accordingly to Hugh Moore, partner with Guerite Advisors in Greenville, South Carolina, Stagflation is  the worst of all worlds. You can’t lower rates without stimulating inflation pressures and you can’t raise rates because the economy is stalled.

I am a very visual person and don’t have much time on my hands, so I thought I should come up with a tool that could give me at a glance information on which stocks or sectors are on an uptrend/downtrend and any changes from up to down or down to up that have occurred between today and the day before - this last information I can also use as a trigger for adding the stock to my watch list. I am calling this my ‘Trend Mapping’ , here’s what it looks like:
