On the bright side - The Fed enters its blackout period tomorrow - so no more Williams/Bullard jawboning (for a week)

Fuck you, Janet.
Gotta love the cacophony of fed speak... if they only knew what they were talking about...
To quote the Lego Movie (if you have kids you know about this movie):
"OK, I think I got it...... but just in case, tell me everything again. I wasn't listening."
Or a shorter one:
"$35 for a coffee?? AWESOME!"
We're all going to end up a lot poorer before this is over and these bastards at the Fed are going to be the ones doing to us.
"I've got good news and I've got bad news. The good news is that we'll all become trillionaires. The bad news is that we'll all become trillionaires."
Everything is Awesome!!
my neighbor's half-sister makes $63 /hour on the internet . She has been out of work for 10 months but last month her pay was $16551 just working on the internet for a few hours. More Info... www.job-reports.com
Rates are never going up.
LOL
Officially, rates won't go up. But REAL rates, those you actually have to pay, will. It'll just be a few extra 'points' because of this or that, before you know it, you'll be paying true market rates despite the "official rate".
My health insurance premium rate just went up............another 22% this month! Hooray, the economy is booming.
Never=long time, what happens when the whole world loses confidence in fiat?

Bunch of retards.
You'd all be babbling the same shit if you'd fucked things up this badly.
Markets are headed lower this week, with or without Fed talking heads.

Cool charts, thanks.

buy buy buy
If you smooth out the curve, it looks like a damped system.
IMO the FED neither has the rates or anything else under control, at least when looking at it in the longer run.
"The rates" will shoot to the moon once nobody trusts the US government anymore. And that day will come, whatever those people at the FED do or want!
I thought the FED'S comfort zone was bullshittery...or maybe unicornshittery.
Where's the E*Trade baby? Haven't seen him in a while.
He's Janet's bitch now.
They need this for their toothbrush in the morning :see

What happens with QE is it creates blackholes in the economy, that money is lost forever and is not being used to stimulate growth, only prop up a failing system, the elite will still walk away with the money, like last time, but now no one will ever believe their lies again :)
What is fartmans latest call? We need him to go bull again... He called a bear market on Thursday afternoon and look what happened... Maybe tomorrow he will call for a resumption of the bull market..
Why does nobody get it. The Fed's 300 Ph.Ds. in economics have been censored by the Obama administration
The economy needs to be rebuilt from the ground up. Sovereign money creation is required, by an independent agency under the Treasury in the fashion that John F. Kennedy set up. The Federal Reserve should retain the power to set interest rates on deposits, but should become a fully state-owned but independent bank organized along the lines of the United States Postal Service and should be restricted to holding the accounts of the federal government and its enterprises, state banks, and private credit unions. Private banks should be replaced with credit unions, controlled not by shareholders but by depositors, with day-to-day operation in the hands of a works council elected by employees.
The biggest ten banks in the country, even in credit-union form, should be broken up into the banks that merged to create them, or about thirty or so, in order to prevent concentration in the financial industry. The financial markets, such as stock, bond, commodity, and futures exchanges (although not the companies on them, of course) should be nationalized, and trading of financial assets outside those channels on dark pools and other opaque means should be forbidden. Shares of stock should last a maximum of twenty years, or until dividends cover the original amount of investment plus twenty percent, whichever is longer.
Large companies, and major divisions of the largest enterprises, should be managed by employee-elected works councils rather than by shareholder-chosen boards. Such an arrangement would put a stop to the financial engineering of unprecedented buybacks that is currently underpinning the capital markets, and would allow for companies to pass on more their savings to consumers, employees, and productive investment, rather than to shareholders who don't work.
