Just 5 Fun-Durr-Mental Charts

Tyler Durden's picture




 

With Treasury yields plunging today and oil prices heading back towards cycle lows, is it any wonder stocks are testing record highs once again... these 5 charts should help explain it all...

 

The Santa Claus Rally (in bonds and stocks?)

 

Oil no longer matters...

 

Nor do bonds...

 

No do US Macro fundamentals...

 

What matters is this...

 

 

Charts: Bloomberg

I have had the "pleasure" of going to some football games with my family.  I can tolerate it for sometime.  One fun thing I like to do at these games is to mix up the crowds war chants.  For instance, the Cleveland Browns crowds have a chant of "Here we go Brownies, here we go!  Woof! Woof!"  I substitute the name of the team with the sport being played. 

"Here we go football here we go"

Instead of "Let's go Cavs!" I scream "BAS KET BALL! BAS KET BALL!"  

If you do this late enough in the game when everyone is annebriated enough, you can get many to play along.

Anyone who appears on CNBC or any of the other MSM propaganda channels and blathers about the stock market being in the early stages of a bull market is either blatantly lying or is just an ignorant motherf*cker. http://investmentwatchblog.com/anyone-who-appears-on-cnbc-or-any-of-the-other-msm-propaganda-channels-and-blathers-about-the-stock-market-being-in-the-early-stages-of-a-bull-market-is-either-blatantly-lying-or-is-just-an-ignorant-m/

So what these clowns are playing is this: some yield-desperate Japanese idiot financial entity lends them Japanese yen at near-zero, they turn around and buy US dollars then buy BTFD US stocks at the highest prices in history, expecting to be able to pay back their yen cheaper AND make stock gains?

Works as long as Abenomics does.  And if the yen collapses they'll make a killing...

And at some point they'll have to pay back the yen and sell some stawks...wonder who will be buying then?  Anyone?

in one's dim and very distant past one remembers a charity fund raising for a Noel Coward play. I forget the play, maybe it was "Privates on Parade" but the fund raiser was called "Fund a mental frolic" - little off with the metaphors, but still, throwbacks to the late 70's/early 80's abound.
