Fed's Mission Accomplished
Looks like the herd has turned... (most hated rally?)

The question is - now that the public has bought back into the casino... which way do the big boys want the market to go? Remember this...

<< Buy gold / silver.
<< Buy guns / ammunition.
All of the above
The Trickle-DOWN SYNDROME ;-)
Looney
Soon to be Tricked-&-Drowned Syndrome. Faith in the USD and its rigged markets is total insanity and a financial death wish, as other nations see the bullshit and are preparing the next economic system without the arrogant, entitled, privileged reserve.
...That's a pretty ignorant statement. Faith in the USD and markets is exactly what makes the USD and markets work. So to not have faith in them while still relying on them is far more insane. Now if you are completely self sufficient, feel free to burn or give me all your USD.
What exactly should I have faith in sir? One of an assortment of metals with little intrinsic value? And an intrinsic value the varies enormously with technilogical developments at that.
One is scarce and finite and the other can be produced at the whim of a few powerful elite. What's faith got to do with it, other than perpetuating the illusion?
With the Obozo Admin it's not trickle-down anything...
It's trickle-up poverty.
10 k into hookers and blow.
Most would put an extra $10k into the stawk market you say? Well... that's probably why they don't have an extra $10k to begin with.
If you invest the 10k in blow the hookers are free. Until you run out.
MAX > why not..."fire all your guns at once and explode into space", "better to burn out than fade away", "champagne supernova in the sky"
Hey baby boomers, Ya think DOW can beat INFLATION in the road race to HELL !
Bunz, check back in with us in a couple of years (at most).
Meantime, buckle-up, it could get bumpy during the fleecing...
No, sir. Have faith in the PINKO COMMIE FASCISTS that you blindly follow.....
QE = viagra, WALL STREET = flacid dick, PHARMACY = DC, FORMULA = FASCISM
I would buy silver. That would explain why I am poor
No one suggested night vision? Not even that horseman guy? I guess his FN has Aimbot.
I've kinda had my heart set on either a small tractor with a backhoe or a mini-excavator. Either would be a good investment of $10K if one had a use for them. Pre-owned, of course.
Always good. They do hold their value, so you are better off with something rather than nothing. I have a 2wd Kubota almost as old as me and I promise you it will do a lot of work. It has no front end loader, but I can pull tree stumps, mow, move dirt, use a carry-all, and tow a trailer. I have a tail bucket that I used to make my Hugelkultur mounds this year. All that and I use about 6 gallons a season.
I actually have a little Kubota, too. Has a front end loader, but it's a bit small for a backhoe. Night vision, or even better, thermal imaging could also prove useful someday, but equipment has more practical and immediate uses.
Say......where do I get this extra $10K anyway?
1976 Ford 3600 that I got for $300. The owner (grandson of the owner who passed away, actually) thought that the block was cracked. It was just a freeze plug that popped out in the cylinder head under the valve cover. It is an awesome machine. With the right attachments, and there are a lot of them, it can do almost anything.
Ford used to build some seriously good tractors and backhoes.
Pink > only till the fad of paper money and stock cert's fade. There are a lot of folks with a monster mortgage, leased mercedes and stock that think they are rich. Things can change overnight.
Buy bitcoin.
can I get that bitcoin with battery backup ?
I find it ironic that gold is one of the best conductors of electricity and bitcoin one of the the biggest users of electricity
<< Buy both
And now ready for slaughter.
They clearly set out to break the public's taste for gold, in favor of their dollars and their stocks.
This is akin to how they work on the public's mind to discourage, say, cannabis in favor of synthetic prescription drugs ... and then additional prescription drugs to counter the side effects of the first set of prescription drugs. Or natural foods in favor of their synthetics. I could go on and on but I know I am preaching to the choir.
The public is viewed as a tax farm and individuals merely as units of taxable energy. Could not be clearer.
Could any more efficient Hell be manufactured ? Well, I guess we shall see.
The former United States is a now a majority of broken animals. Only firearms are saving the holdouts from total loss.
If I may say so, Hongcha, the term "side effects" which you yourself use is another example of "how they work on the public's mind".
It's a clever term, the purpose of which is to encourage you to ignore something important.
If you take a drug to alleviate Condition A, successfully, but if that drug helps bring about harmful Conditions B and C, those are called "side effects". They are not side effects. They are effects.
Buy two acres of active farm land.
whom here in this day and age is smart enough to farm
I am. Totally into permaculture. Start with hugelkultur technique. Need way less than an acre to feed a family of four with veggies for a year. Oh yeah, heirloom seeds and g&a are a good idea.
Is it like Farmville?
A similar question was asked to investment bankers:
Q: A new client comes to you with $10,000 to invest. What do you do?
A: 100% Sell them $2,000 worth of MBS crap for $10,000 and spend the proceeds on hookers and blow.
Always Buy High -
And Hope for Sky High !!

Retailing to the muppets is all they have left. They're jittery out there.
September's almost here you rat bastards. If September doesn't bring it, October will.
And if not October, November gorsh darn it.
Looks a little like a map of the US.
Maybe future map, with no Texas.
DowBuck over 17k, and rising. Buy allot of gas with a DowBuck.
$7,000 metal
$3,000 non perishables and useful tools.
Must have both to survive
Might be better reversed, who knows, but, yes, one or the other is good, but both will likely work out better.
I'm just wondering where the down arrow came from. Don't care, just find it odd.
Best to have all tools, food, ammo, land, survival stuff taken care of first, before any metals speculation.
41% is not high enough yet. When it reaches 91% we will be in real mania territory. That is when the sheep get sheared.
Senator: Chairwoman Yellen, isn't it time to raise rates?
Yellen: Oh, Senator, we're all friends here. You can call me Bubbles.
1stepcloser: "whom here in this day and age is smart enough to farm"
Never thought I'd see the day when two medium sized green bell peppers sold for $1.89.
Amazing.
Iflation is tamed though (rayt?)
Bread was a nickel a loaf in 1925.
Sure, but think of how much better each loaf of bread is now-a-days. That's tough to factor in when discussing inflation.
Apples $5.97 for a 3 pound bag in the No Frills supermarket here in apple growing country. I shit you not.
My dad's cousin was a farmer. Spent a lot of time there.
I've lived, for a while, in a farming community.
First years would be touch and go, but I learn fast.
Might have to augment with a bit of hunting, but I'm decent with a bow.
Whatever happens, I'll be dead one day.
Today was OK, Yesterday was a great day, close to perfect.
Tomorrow??
Who knows.
A somewhat distorted survey, I would have said (if anyone had asked me).
There ought to be a fifth option: "Buy even more fast food, sugary drinks and other consumer crap that I don't need".
If you are going to commit suicide, that's a really slow way to do it!
5 grams of high quality heroin would be more efficient, and a lot less painful.
How can you deny the market when all it does is go up. It even has me convinced that it will go up forever
US debt held by the Federal Reserve at the end of 2013: A new record high!
Banksters “print” more money than ever!

Sheeple deserve to get slaughtered. Stupid dumbed down assholes.....
Seems that everybody understands the Fed’s playbook. Everybody that is, except ZH perma-bears. Pushing equity markets higher has been their number one goal since the collapse first began. Their models show that by increasing the wealth effect, millions will go out and buy things. They will feel good about their 401K’s and their future. Those receiving the greatest benefit from Fed actions, i.e the wealthiest, will go out and buy big new toys with their profits creating demand that the workers will have to fulfill. Those receiving less or even minimal benefit, will go out and borrow money at low Fed rates and also buy more toys. The next most important goal is to re-inflate the housing bubble. This gets millions of people out from being upside-down and gets the masses using their homes “equity” to buy more toys. This has been held back by $1.1T in student loans, and may require loan forgiveness to break that trillion free.
Now the Fed begins the next phase. They announce “plans” for a meager 25bp hike in mid-2015, and maybe a second one in late 2015. Stocks explode higher on the jawboning. Everyone knows huge economic improvement is driving Fed rate hikes. Rates remain at historic lows for decades, stocks march higher. Fed sees some weakness, announces may have to cut again, stocks roar higher.
Janet is offering all of you some of those trillions of $$. She only insists you buy stocks. Her bank will backstop the markets and remove all risk. So far, $3 TRILLION has been pumped into just one of the largest funds. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE but the Fed-driven equity markets. It will not be allowed to fail. No, not gold, or commodities.
So do us all a favor, stop the damn whining and Fed-bashing tirades, and go all in. You cannot lose.
You forgot the /sarc
I was about to say 'you got anything tangible to back that up'?
Hookers, cocain and nail gunnnnzzzzz!
They cant raise rates unless economy turns around.
10 more years?
So the low-volume melt-up is caused not by institutions buying and selling to each other in small amounts, but by retail buying every day through 401k contributions?
Well, this is a 100 to one Ponzi.
What do stock markets around the world have in common with "girls gone wild" the video of college girls on spring break? The answer is both are crazy out of control. We have grown very complacent as money around the world has continued to flow into intangibles and promises.
Currently the market is all a twitter and locked in a "greed and stupidity loop." The loop can be explained as follows, stocks are rising so why get out, not getting out is causing the stocks to rise. When stocks do pullback it is a buying opportunity. Yes, we are indeed experiencing a double down and let it ride mentality. I don't have to explain the greed part. More about this subject in the article below.
