Sounds a lot like what Ozawa did pre/post 3-11-11 Fukushima

"If he wins, one question will be how he handles Tokyo’s crucial security relationship with Washington, its longtime protector. He has called for Japan to become a “normal nation” that can speak its mind to the United States and also take a more assertive role overseas. However, those who know Mr. Ozawa say his real goal is to challenge not Washington but the powerful bureaucrats at the central ministries. This has led to bitter clashes with Japan’s permanent government, including the public prosecutors, who have pursued seemingly unending investigations into Mr. Ozawa’s political finances in recent years." NYT Sept 11, 2010

Next up? A major knife attack in Xinxiang or Tiananmen

BOJ at least , in line...

Meanwhile in Hong Kong:

"Beijing has often accused “foreign forces” of trying to destabilise Hong Kong during the current pro-democracy protests, with a garrulous expat American emerging as a key target of attack. He's also a proud Catholic - something that links him to Lai and many other prominent figures in the Hong Kong democracy struggle. Of his portrayal in pro-Beijing media as an "international man of mystery", Simon links the allegations against him back to his four years as a young civilian in the U.S. Navy as an intelligence analyst scrutinizing submarine developments."

Remember that BOJ is official Bad News Bears of CBs, and that BOJ Monetary Policy has Mothra-esque half life.

I think you're right.

Quite a dilemma.  Every day you have to lean through the jaws of the guillotine to pick up your free money.  You know one day, that blade will drop.  All you have to do is stop reaching through for the free money and yuo'll be just fine.  But you won't stop.  Nope, the temptation is just too great.  Everyone will keep reaching for it until they're beheaded.

Another big reverse repo this week as many TBTF banks took that cash and invested in Japan, just hours ahead of the announcement that BofJ and pension funds were increasing their stock holdings.

All just a coincidence I am sure.

Only $511,829,000,000 in the last four days. If they hit the limit today will bring it up to $811,829,000,000 in four days.

 

They changed the rate for 10/30 & 10/31 to 5 bp.

My fucking God...

"$811,829,000,000 in four days."  ....  if this isn't the red flag of the week...  just four days and we need damn near a trillion dollar pump. 

That is a pretty expensive habit motherfuckers, time to seek some real help.

repost ...

Anyone responsible for explaining the financial markets to the general public should be embarrassed by this, there is no good explanation that coheres with a functional financial system,
... but there won't be any embarrassment to speak of. Should have happened long ago. There is no shame, no contrition. All souls were sold long ago. Their ghosts roam the land pillaging on All Hallows' eve.

How to pop popcorn:

Heat a kettle with about an eighth of an inch of oil in the kettle, six quart, add just enough popcorn to cover the bottom of the kettle, pop popcorn until all of the popcorn has popped, you can hear when it is done.

Add butter and enjoy.

forgeddaboud the stupid market and all of the paper involved.

Just another shitshow anywho.
