Bullard Observes The Market Rebounded On His "QE4" Comment

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Isn't it amazing what 2000 Dow points will do to a Federal Reserve member's perspective of 'the economy' and 'inflation expectations'. Bullard is back again today:

  • *BULLARD: INFLATION EXPECTATIONS REBOUNDED SINCE MID-OCTOBER
  • *BULLARD: FED TO RAISE RATES IN 2015, TIMING DETERMINED BY DATA

So basically calling off QE4 until the next 9.9% correction... Dow-Data-Dependent indeed

And of course, by 'inflation expectations' Bullard means the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

 

... Because it appears inflation expectations didn't "rise" too much.

 

 

Meanwhile, here are St Louis Fed "research" officials hard at work in "maintaining the narrative":

Theres more than one measure of inflation?  But there's only one way to effect it..... by Issuing Statements.  LOL.

Raise rates already you cocky idiots.  Stupid-ass financial whores talk and talk and talk but do nothing.  What a useless life.  Tie a gay Twitter pic to it and you've got yourself a professional.

lmao

So Bullard is now a Fed "hawk" and going to raise rates? LOL...what a waste of skin that guy is.

"Hey, look over here" is all they have left now.

I think we're headed towards a scenario that mirrors the early to mid 90's.  Real Estate is going to crash hard which will help offset the inflation everywhere else, meanwhile the stock market levitates on a complete lack of fundamentals.  The FED needs a rise in consumer spending but hasn't been able to produce any wage inflation.   The only option left to increase consumption is to lower fixed costs and RE is in anm obious bubble anyway.  As the Belgium episode showed us they can juice the market behind the scenes so the "real" FED rate is window dressing for market confidence.  We'll probably see another 90's relic as well, a President Clinton versus a GOP congress.  Considering the last 14 years the 90's is looking like a golden era of affordable RE and jobs.  I'll take it again if we can get it.

I just bought one Dec.'15 CMX Silver Contract for $15.48; much cheaper than the near in  months; for whatever reason. The margin is 5500$; but I'm leaving 10,000$ unallocated to make this contract comfortable; I hope. I already took my $8754 loss on my S&P500 shorts a few days ago. I think I'll do what i do 90% of the time and just ignore it; except as an object of fascination.

it's clear that the banks don't give a fuck about the economy, just the stock markets

 

bankers get to continue to watch their investments rise

 

and the MSM is complicit in this process

 

everyday is uglier than the previous and this is how these banksters want it

Well, would you care about the economy as long as your investments are secure? Probably not. Preservation of self-interest before anything else is human nature.

That was so baffling.  It was QE Bullard that reversed the correction.  And now where do we sit?

In the world of the machines, Bullard is part of the feedback loop that signals buying or selling. So, yes, he is god in their world and unfortunately the algos now run Wall Street. Legislate SkyNet!

Oh yes.  I remember 10/15/14 clearly.  Just when the stock "market" was in the process of doing the highly needed healthy "cleansing", Bullard get on Bloomberg and hysterically made things Ok again (for the .01% - 1%) with his QE extending statements.

Delaying the proper return to a sensibly price stock market - and even exascerbating it by inflating the bubble much further - is gonna make the correction or crash a whole lot worse.

Bullard and Andolfotto know the debt bubble is about to burst. That they can pretend to believe their narratives is admirable but it doesn't chnage anything...
