Cash is King again.
HAARP nigga
Not this time. It's our friend the sunspot.
Deflation is Here. Was Prechter actually RIGHT? greenback cash? look at those futures baby... YEE HAW tomorrow gonna be FUUN!
Prechter is i believe going to be proved right on deflation... but his Elliott Wave stock service (clown show) is so fuking wrong like you wouldn't believe, the biggest sham i've ever come across
Here's Prechters 2010 prediction, 100% wrong for the entire year (12 months out of 12 =100% failure rate). Timing is everything, Elliott Waves are bloody useless, Prechter is bloody clueless
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTZigLYsiMM&feature=related
Yep, Prechters Elliott Waves predicts 2010 will be "at least as large a decline as 2008"....not even close, in fact the exact opposite of what happened in 2010. His service is the BIGGEST mis-direction of where the markets go week in week out, month in month out. This village idiot is peddling a cure worse than the disease and he's too arrogant to face up to the statistical reality of the failure rate of his predictions
Log your failure rate for your predictions Prechter (try your shambolic 2010 record on stocks, commodities, Gold, Silver, US Dollars etc) it's close to 100% wrong right across the board. Elliott Wave predictions are mathematically proven absolute garbage
@bob_dabolina
Almighty Dollar, holla!

Cursive, are you there? Is your Youtube working?
it is Offical; central bankers are the frontline of radiation fire fighters.
Gosh, so brave of them to be exposed to such toxic assets. Oh wait...
LOL...buy our debt bonds right now dammit!
Thank Heavens for Benny the Bean eh? ....doing Gods work too no doubt!
By cash, do you mean goldmoney, or filthy lucre?
@strannick
Dirty linens.
I saw this movie in 2008. It sucked then (if you were long) it will suck even more today.
Now who was begging us to get to cash since last week?
Yep, this is all your fault.
Other than the fact you would have been wrong for two years..
Check
Benicopter Bernanke will come to the rescue with US dollar swaps in the amount of 500 billion plus
That sounds about right
I have nothing to base this on except the past, but this is bigger than TARP. At least a Tril bay-bee.
How dare you slander Benocide like that. He would NEVER dilute with such a small number. You need to repent, now.
Who could possibly be selling bonds?
no one.....yields are plunging...which means someone is buying, big time.
Yeah, my bad. World's turning upside down.
Misean, + 100
Flight to safety... Until it isn't.
Fly to safety in GOLD before long... Does not have to be today...
Won't be this week either. But most of the price move is paper. This is a FD to buy for delivery.
And, yes, I feel bad for saying it.
Gold AND Silver...but with Silver inventory near zero, up-up-n-away!
Price isn't important, only delivery.
Price most definitely is important. Do you hear that beeping sound? That's me and my truck in reverse waiting for $10 silver.
That is going to be long long wait.
and they are buying them from someone ...... who is selling them no?
Bill Gross
I was thinking the same thing. I guess that PIMCO didn't have "insider information" regarding the earthquake, etc? That's why I personally ALWAYS believe in diversity. But what do I know, I'm NOT a billionaire!
I used to believe in diversity, until I hired one too many albino negroid dwarf hermaphrodites to change my light bulbs on the 12 foot ceiling.
NEW HQ FOLKS! (And of course we all feel bad for saying it...but this is the true home for those who live the Razor's Edge.)
I may be about to make a complete fool of myself... but I am selling bonds.
Most Government debt cannot be repaid as it is. Add this disaster... I cannot believe the CBs will do anything other than monetise like there's no tomorrow.
How can that be good for yields? And how long before the market agrees with me?
At the open, bond funds will surpass US equity markets in YTD performance.
Well, so far, the June futures for the 10 and 30 year don't agree with you.
So much for the first calendar year in over twenty when the prior year levels were not touched.
fck yields, just buy gold, food, wine, and pentagrams for when chairsatan visits your dinner party
Well I for one can guarantee I won't be paying on those US junk bonds.
@BigJim
Forget bonds and cash, if I were in this camp, I'd be long on "stuff."
Isn't this what Chairsatan wants?
QE4SQUARE bitches
Quick, Congress, borrow something....
That's what WAR is for.
Shit. I am dumb because I didn't think that was the primary goal of the whole disaster.
Ask and you shall recieve..Thanks Tyler, thats what I was looking for..
This bond thing is beyond me. Please help by expanding.
muni bonds not looking so bad now
Word!
General Obligation bonds from US States that employ fiscal discipline.
Can the DXY catch a mother fuckin' bid, one time?
Christ.
I believe it just did.
QE3.....QE4.....
I guess this means low interest rates for a while, too.
Tyler, with the Treasury low on cash because of the debt ceiling, will this limit the Fed?
That's an excellent question.
And could this be one of the few things that would motivate republicans to vote for an expansion of the debt ceiling?
Congress will use the 'crisis' to raise the debt ceiling, that is unless the 'conservatives' hold the line. My guess is that it'll be raised because of the 'situation.'
or the "conservative variant of never let a crisis go to waste"? Money is no object now....
and the mob really cares how many sandwiches it sells in the front of the front
this cant be good for silver
On the contrary, it might be excellent. Precious Metals are an historical safe haven.
Not tonight
Your seeing an algo reaction, not a people reaction.
they already bounced.
But soon.
A great opportunity is coming for buyers of gold, silver and platinum. Especially gold. Eyes open!
Get prepared! Diversify and be agile!
Forex gold is down silver too. I wonder if Bondo Bill want back in the T-bill game?
If the market opens tomorrow. They may have to shut them down. The volatility is insane. With the amount of leverage they kept in the system even after 2008 it is unclear whether the system can withstand the realignment. There would not be enough money to cover the margins if it keeps going like this.
Interesting...
Time for Timmah to get on the refi train like the rest of his millions of subservient debt slaves
Who was it that wrote the article saying the USD and Treasuries were no longer a flight to safety asset and the proof was in the pudding when some Lybian skirmish coincided with gold being up and equities down, what was it less than 1%?
Prayers with the Japanese people on this one though. Just an unbelievable catastrophe that keeps getting worse.
I am with you, Slim. We should all pray for them and give what we can in these terrible times.
They have given. They are called "sailors of the United States Navy." If and when the US get's "the event" they will be called upon to pay our price.
I spoke with a 90-year old Marine pilot today who served in the Pacific in WWII. Fascinating gentleman.
He flew recon-photography over the Japanese-held islands. Taking pictures of the Japanese, he said. Kidding, I asked him if they were Geisha girls and he said, no, it was all palm trees, sand and Jap helmets.
I hope they're still making them like him!
;)
Pretty F-up when terrible news for the Japanese means short term good news for America.
Disaster=Good
Fraud=Good
Theft=Good
Greed=Good=Gordon Gecko was the mother f-ing truth.
Trillions in fiat sloshing about have to go somewhere. It's a snap back to the origination. Really, not a good thing.
on wires now:
- BOJ offers another Y3 trillion in same-day funds to the money market -- This follows an injection of Y5 trillion in the morning, for which it received Y3.6608 trillion demand from financial firms -- The move comes after firms took up Y8.926 trillion of Y15 trillion offered Monday -- Highlights BOJ's efforts to calm markets rattled by the earthquake, nuclear crisis
Oil is bid.
What does "oil is bid" mean?
Excellent question.
The short answer. Sell order was the bid price.
then there is the more complex aspect of the oil/metals divergence.
add in margin calls which must be covered with metals if that is all you have, then
add to that the age old theory of DFTF & something strange maybe brewing..
http://wp.me/pwkw8-ux
or people could simply double down & say STF. I say, I am going to bet on America, every time
because they can do stuff like this whenever they want...

as in sieze your hard assets, if your a sorry sack of crap and give them to the masses who seek freedom and democracy.
As in God Bless America.
If I had my way we would already be in there helping them as of two weeks ago, but as I understand it they needed to get everyone on board including Russia & China. I say they both can do as they like.
When you stand for freedom and democracy, you stand with the People. Power to the People. We the People of the United States of America, Will Stand with the People.

Yeah! Where the Hell are they?
I posted last night that that had better be good..., or else the conspiracy theorists (those anyway) would have ZeroCredibilty.
A false alarm, just when we NEED good info...
Knee jerk reaction pissing of the pants. Flight into the USD. Won't last with the
treasury almost out of cash. I don't want to hold US dollars for long.
American homeowners--this is your last chance to refi. The near term low in UST yields will be the final bottom in yields.
With the Japanese now effectively out of the world bond markets as buyers, who will buy the $1.5-$1.6 trillion of new government paper we will need to sell in the next year (let alone make up for the Japanese UST holdings which won't be rolled over since they will need to repatriate their money).
With one of the world's largest net savers now out of the market who is going to pick up this slack?
QE3 and QE4 are now certainties.
But given the market's poor reaction to QE2 and the realization by most investors you can't print money forever, the two minute warning for the US Treasury market just rang and we are still down by multiple touchdowns.
Game over shortly.

Maybe... on the off chance, I'll definitely be trying to sell my house during the "warm" upcoming months... hoping someone nibbles at the rates. But, I will in no way shape or form own again until price discovery occurs here... I'll be renting...
the Crash is here folks...
This is it? System failure imminent?
a sign there is no viable investment, and bet the only one they think is long? Long what? Pig?
Since TS is HTF I'd be long on toilet paper.
Gold and Silver were both up today!
You on the crackpipe I am, when?
When the foundation of our markets are built on nothing, then it doesn't take much to get the dominos falling & have the whole thing come crashing down despite what Bernake does or doesn't do. The *mighty* deflation collapse might be upon us. Even though the USD & UST's are strengthening right now it could all be very temporary & a currency collapse could be near.
Matthews: Good analysis.. QE 3 is definately a certainty. but what will they
call it, how will they spin it. Definately gonna be inflationary globally.
But I read on here 14trillion times the US is no longer a safe haven. That the metals are where it is at if not them then the Yuan was the new standard bearer.
Just like DEC 2008 yields will be lower than transactional costs.
UST's will evetually be toast as Japan and Asia flow back is on the cards.
Eventually we'll all be dead.
Nothing more comical on this site the last 18months than the perpetual cries of new world order all the while as recently as two years ago old world order of shit hits fan buy US bonds was still true.
Same doomsday crappolla from the early 70's, the early 80's and now the early 2010's.
Really how many of you are direct descendants of Joe Granville?
There is no replacement, sorry.
and everything that went up in price with QE will most likely come down in price when QE ends. Which equals deflation, given no one will have any money to buy anything and Chinese state of the art overcapacity in manufacturing cheap ass crap isn't stopping, it makes perfect sense and rates go nowhere anytime soon as all the money fleeing those wonderful metals et al falling in price goes where it always goes when shit hits the fan-into US bonds.
Think it has something to do with deleveraging and the money not actually circulating or something on top of it but I would have to be a neo marxist ZH self loathing wannabee intellectual to comprehend it completely.
But I am enough of an idiotic imbecile to recognize a mania and panic and not react like the herd. Can someone archive those nice little upward geometric charts the tangible assets were creating with QE? So when the mirror appears the neo marxist self loathing ZH folks can see what panic looks like too.
Moo.
Can I go long in-
"But I got out at the top posts"?
So you're saying Bill Gross knows shit.
There was no POMO in DEC 2008 and yields fell under transaction costs. The world in essence paid the US to hold their money.
The day Gross made his announcement there were more buyers than sellers and yields fell. 'nuff said?
Is there prosperity in Europe? How about in the US?
How do end up with inflation with no buyers and perpetual oversupply from China of many goods?
Why shouldn't everything that went up in price which is mostly everything -with QE come down in price when QE finally ends which it will eventually?
There is a nice graph here somewhere of QE and worldwide tangible assets, they are extremely correlated,
why would that correlation suddenly stop?
But my question is whether or not there are any ways for the power elite to function without perpetual QE? Do they really want to shoot themselves in the foot? I understand this whole fucking derivative fiasco is big deflationary in nature. They will have to fight it to their death. No?
Coorelation stops when the sheeple realize there is a difference between price and value. You can deflate the whole phucking world, but there will still be items/objects that folks value.
For some reason it seems to be a difficult concept. With some relatives, I literally had to sit down with somea world globe in one hand and some bits of paper with numbers on them before they got the difference between stuff and money.
it's not demand inflation, it's cost input inflation and money printing that boast of its frigidity. We can cunnilingus the deflation argument all day long and pretend that the popping of its CRE/Res cherry is deflation, but its just us practicing yoga and sucking what's closest... that is, the refusal to admit that inflation in an economy is not accompanied by all sectors going up.
Sucking what is closest is ignoring the mania created by QE and pretending when QE ends it won't.
Snappy comeback mein froind, but it seems you just paraphrased what you already said. Nothing is forever...agreed, Xk. However, that assumes we're talking about now, and the near future (as defined/postulated by Austrian theory [which you may not agree on the definition, or be resistant to it's semantic cage if your a Keynesian] def which is money supply increase).
The real question remains; if you can reach it with your mouth, does it mean one must be shelving their heterosexuality?
If you give an already drunk person his 16th shot can you tell the difference between the effects of that and his 15th?
How about if only give him water and actually take the real shot and put it into a closet somewhere?
Besides all else leaving a period of dramatic expansion,
how many buildings by you would not exist absent near free money? Isn't modern cost accounting dictated by current and future rates and with the current near zero for years how many things were shelved for the future?
Massive over capacity not only with Chinese manufacturing but other stuff as well. Imbalances like the disconnect between the value of a home and the cost of the underlying raw materials will come back into parity at some point,
just don't see it coming from inflation of the value of the home and not deflation of the underlying costs of the raw mats.
The only problem I see with this idea is what the other guy posted, fighting the fed to the nth degree that seems hellbent on inflating out come hell or high water.
Yes I agree it seems at some point have to pay the piper for all the money but I think it will be protracted and not for a while,
how about 2017 minimum until the period of near free money actually catches up with the demand for what it created. It being a given that even if they haven't raised rates they raised standards which has had a minor tightening effect. Then maybe look the f out for higher than avg inflation?
Xb., you make a legitimate argument: if QE drives prices up, then the end of QE will result in prices falling. This may happen. You could right. But you are not making a distinction that should be made between inflation and hyperinflation. The two are not the same. It is not the case that if you keep going down the road of inflation, after a while you reach a place called “hyperinflation.” Now, to be sure, you can reach hyperinflation via inflation, but it is important to think about what is really happening. Inflation is ever more money coming into the system. Hyperinflation, on the other hand, is something different. It is a loss of confidence in money. The two are not the same. Once confidence is lost, people want to get rid of bad money AND people also want to get rid of assets denominated in bad money.
Since everybody is throwing around analogies, here is mine. It is raining. The water is rising. Then finally it stops raining. “We’re safe. We’re safe. The water is going to stop rising.” [A roaring sound off stage.] “Oops, the dam upstream -- it just broke.”
When it comes to FRNs, there is a lot of water upstream held behind dams that are as shaky as heck.

Bernanke won't do shit, yields are falling on the flight to safty. most he will do is a major dollar swaps to Japan to try and bring their YEN down. Because he is braindead, just means that the Japanese fuel prices will go ballistic
if anything central bankers should be alarmed at oil going upward ontop of massive position selling

Time to intiate "keiretsu" part II, we just need to start a conflict with someone...hmmm....
North Korea looks vulnerable and we wouldn't have to travel so far. Plus, we could put it on the Chinese and demonstrate to the world once and for all what a paper dragon it really is.
Problem is, we'd have to do it with nukes and the Japanese aren't very keen on irony, especially as it relates to radiation.
Let's go get Cuba, instead. What say?
Now the crucial question: who would want to buy Japan?
Japanese government to buy stocks directly
http://dawnwires.com/investment-news/japanese-government-to-buy-stocks-t...
There will be no devaluation of USD for at least 2 years. Hence, Stock market will crash. However, oil prices will move higher- and that is one of the reasons why stock market will eventually crash as second recession will be evident in coming in H2 2011 and in numbers in Q1 2012.
The DJIA graph I made on February 6th has accurately predicted not even market top at February 18th but even todays ( 11800?) DJIA value. That is about 1,5 month correct trend prediction in time and price, not bad. Also Oil graph is corrrect at predicting Oil prices peak in the end of February, drop in middle March before going up again towards April.

May be even silver graph is correct- the up to 50% correction comes in end of March-Early April. May be because all plants using silver in production will be closed, or Japan will start selling gold reserves to pay for nuclear disaster.

markets always have 1000 point swing days. until they don't. something about ides of march and ides of august. check 1999 or 2000ish years.
nothing changes since "the market hasn't destroyed itself" and "therefore it's not about the market." just a "down" or "up"..."day"--just in case however, alight the candles and say some prayers for that ancestor who "did that thing" 5000 years ago. Uncle "something or so" i think is his name.

Posted on blog Nov 2010 and Jan 2011:
The major correction in 2007/2008 was predicted by some market analysts including myself.
It was not a ‘Black Swan’ event that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The charts made it very clear back then what was ahead and they are doing so again.
My long term charts warn of another black swan market crash that 'nobody could have predicted‘
http://stockmarket618.wordpress.com
You aren't even right as often as a broken clock.
Wait a few days and see what comes of your "prediction".
