Fed Extends Closing Time Of First POMO By 15 Minutes

Tyler Durden's picture




 

First, delayed Bill auctions due to "technical glitches"... Now the first POMO of the day delayed by 15 minutes. Is Central Planning proving to be a touch problematic, or is this merely a slight disturbance in the farce?

The good news is that if the Fed screws it up with POMO #1, there is always POMO #2 at 1 pm.

When one player has all the chips, it takes some time to figure out how everyone’s going to ante up.

This is exactly what I was wondering.  These banks don't live in a complete vaccuum.  They know that as the US population begins to awaken, there will be demands for pounds of flesh from the banksters.  At some point, they'll have to show that they had plausable deniability to spare their hides.  I expect more instances of these banksters protesting (in the Shakesperean sense) the force feeding from the Treasury/Fed.  Don't show any sympathy.  Demand their heads on a platter.

Where will we find a big enough Platter to hold all the heads ? :)

The former gold vault at Ft. Knox might be a suitable "platter".

In OblameoWorld, only 15 minutes late is exceptionally good.

They want to make sure they get the early evening speeches released first:

St. Louis Fed President James Bullard will speak on monetary policy in St. Louis at 6:05 p.m. Eastern, while Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher will speak on the economic outlook in Chicago at 7:15 p.m.

Anyone watching Nanex right now. The activity will tell you when they've decided on the actual POMO as opposed to the official word.

Mrs Debtfire, QEen Yellen,  broke the program. She trying to have the turbo-QE button added.

Some bank HFTs couldn't wait to get their hands on it; they hacked in an accelerant that initially made it go faster than the speed of light for front running purposes. It went through a worm hole and at the other end highly intelligent beings do not understand its value.

QEen Yellen isn't putting out...so no one is putting up.

When will they announce a round of free drinks on the house ?

Little interest.

Serious question: Are POMOs always scheduled for the same hour? Are those times EST?

Mon, 12/09/2013 - 15:02 | 4229909 Nobody For President

Normally, yeah.

Note 1to Operation Date:"Operations tentatively scheduled to begin around 10:15 AM and close at 11:00 AM unless noted otherwise."

Note 2 to the second operation on double POMO days (as today): "This operation is tentatively scheduled to begin around 1:15 PM and clos at 2:00 PM."

Google 'Tenative Outright Treasury Operation Schedule' for the list - I always have it on the wall, and circle the double POMO days.

Tyler taught me that...

And it is the New York Fed that executes the Bernake put, so yes, it is EST.

This is probably the Fed's idea of showing those front runners what for.

Psych. Oooh, Kevin’s gett’n sassy.
