Charting The Ponzi Generation

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As only the deranged imagination of the Banzai7 Institute can conceive. Lemmings will be happy to know we are only at 6 out of 10 on the ponzinomics scale. BTFD.

I know!   It's all too exciting!    At this rate the NYSE will be over 10,600 by the end of January!   And still way undervalued, may I add

Everyone is piled into the Hopium Zone! Breathe deep, the gathering gloom.

When the last of the baby boomers dies is when America will cease to exist, as we will have sucked every asset, civil liberty and modicum of "America" dry.  And then POOF!  Dust particles rearranging in a dust devil.

Can we add a "Suessian-Hooplah" zone to the chart?  I have to give credit to Leo Donofrio for that one...cheers!

Embrace the moment. S&P 2000. Why the hell not? It really hasn't moved out of it's current range in over 10 years. And we have fiscal stimulus like we've never seen.

Oh man I was hoping to meet you. What you got for sale. I'm looking for maybe a New Jersey Toll Road with postive income. Got anything like that or do you need lead time to print the fancy bond. I mean deed.

Charles, not even you could concoct this sovereign bail-out bubble, this calls for the work of Ben Shalom.

Yeah, I imagine the next leg of that curve is straight down - to at least BELOW "Reaganomics", when the currency resets somewhere into negative territory.

Got gold? (or silver, platinum, uranium, crude oil, soybeans, trade goods....)

Gold down 4% this year.  Goldbugs start the year with a sore bunghole.

No. Gold down in dollars it's up in euro's. If it stays under 1380 it means less inflation and you've lost nothing. If it goes over 1450 it means more inflation and you've lost nothing.

How exactly did you end up becoming so meaningless, and pointless that all it take is to simply dive to the very bottom of the situation and explain it at it's roots to make you a waste of breath?

Ummm, not exactly. Don't let the pretty colors fool you. If you move along to the right and find the next mark over from 2010 (that's right, it's now 2011) then move straight up, you will see we are now a little past 8 out of 10.

The end is nearer than you think.

where's robo - we need some technical analysis to support the theory.

The real con game is not in the sp or dow, it's in the rut. Need a few more contango'n, decaying etf's to trade...diks.
