2015 is coming fast . http://hedge.ly/1j1v7n8
I still remember when all the bad guys were part of a "syndicate."
p.s. No one will look at your web site. Just stop trying
I remember this old nursury rhyme from way back in the day when fundamentals mattered!
Need a rap version of it
With none of the bull shit
So all you dawgs can see
It's a sick tragedy
For young and old
Who must be told
Get with it
Just fuck it
Yeah, so much for my rap career
You did not use the N word ...and not enough Fuck words.....more swearing...and some cowbell too
MOAR COWBELL!
Now the government is the only syndicate in town.
That moment has passed.
but..but...but... the vix is soooo low?
Such a shame that no one uses poetry anymore.
Wait, where's the Limerick King?
How old is the Limerick King?
Edit: Beat me to it..^^
No Rockabye Baby rhyme here ...this reads like some kind of back to the future voodoo shit .
Traders will trade no matter the price of an asset. Sounds more like it is the investor who will come down.
Funny. And margins are even bigger now.

(Propellor Heads with Shirley Bassey - "History Repeating")
Money must go somewhere (Bonds, Stocks, cash, RE, or commodities)...
Gov 10 yr yields...negative real returns accross the board???
Less than 1%
Japan, Switzerland
Less than 2%
Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, France, Netherlands
Less than 3%
Canada, Ireland, Italy, Spain, UK, US
Others
Portugal (3.5%), Australia (3.75%), New Zealand (4.25%), and bad boy Greece (6%)
So collapsing global YIELDS (10yr Gov. bonds) are and will send yield starved money elsewhere...and there's not many options...so relatively, stocks are looking good???
There will always be a buyer for negative yields which will continue to push out real money searching for yield...

Love that 50 yr French bond yielding 2.88%...oooo lala.
But that Japanese 40yr @ 1.77% might be the big winner???
I'm taking my $1 million retirement plan and invest and I'll get 40 checks, $17k /yr to live high on the hog...of course that's pre-tax, it'a a little more modest after. Retirement lifestyles of the rich and famous...ZIRP style.
@ Ham-bone > Thanks for taking the time to "ed-u-ma-cate" we bond novices.
I appreciate the due diligence you do to make myself & Z/H readers more informed.
Unless the money actually represents toxic debt, in which case the crash will happen and wealth will evaporate.
Then we won't have QE, it will be rebranded to the "Push for Prosperity" market operations, or some other nonsense.
But what about the "flight to safety"....
Rates go up, stocks go down. Wow. AMAZING.
Easy to see why your moniker is "bloody muppet"...
You love irony too, eh? It's hard to tell, when I look at your moniker.
It's good, but where is the limerick king? this is his stompin territory.
Hickory Dickory Dock. Some chick's been sucking my cock. Clock struck two, dropped my goo...Dumped the bitch down the next block!
Odds are you are on the wrong side of nature on this one.
Rocks knows how boring it can be in the bank line
There once was a banker called Ben,
Who printed much dollah and then,
He handed to Janet,
Who printed the planet,
Now were all spending Yuen ;o)
I'm saying the top is in and it's all downhill from here. The dollar is under serious attack from the BRICS and Belgium won't be able to keep up the pace. The ponzi is coming apart and the leverage % we see will be the kiss of death. Once the FED loses control of interest rates it's game over... The timing is perfect, while all you cunts in the Hamptons plan your summer remember this, 2014...Summer from hell! The party is over, I see it, smell it, and can even lick the air and taste it BITCHEZ...
The fed will just buy bonds through Kenya.
Yes, but now we know that the only way rates will rise is if the Fed raises the rates. There is no illusion of a fre market. And, while the Fed is not subject to the laws of this world, there most likely will be some kind of reconning.
Ha- Just like 2007-2008, I wish It would be nicew but the guvment has too many irons in the fire.
HOw I wish our market would follow actual supply and demand...... It is a whole new world and probably none of us can figure it out....................
Some will say buy gold...... that don't seem to work....
So what is a trader to do????
ZeroHedge said the end was nigh
We gathered our assets with a sigh
We remortgaged the house
With a click of the mouse
To buy the fucking all time high
