Congressman Confirms Foreign Central Banks Buying US Stock Futures Is Good For Liquidity
Before we first exposed proof of the conspiracy fact that global Central Banks are indeed trading US equity futures, it was dismissed as tin-foil-hat-wearing, pajama-wearing, basement-living conspiracy theory. So it is, perhaps, quite notable that Congress itself has now admitted that Central Banks are trading futures and that it is good for liquidity (and thus, we pre-suppose, it's for your own good, average citizen).
Thanks to one enterprising member of the public who explained to his local Congressman that:
"trading the futures market against Central Banks is like playing no limit poker against a billionaire. You will always be run out of the market and the market will be controlled by those that can print money for margin (or the next ante),"
the Congressman, a member of the House Financial Services Committee and the Subcommittee on Capital Markets, replied...
And so there it is...

Since this is the place where scams are revealed....
Very well done, tplink!
Ahh, so the role of government is to help WS. Gottit
Step aside. We are with the government. We are here to help you.
Bend over. We are with the government. We are here to help you.
There, fixed it for ya.
Bend over? Next stop.....CLEVELAND!!!!
Dear Serf
We only buy the market when GS gets in a losing position...which is like everyday
Fuck you and mind your own business
I'm smiling next to you, with secret liquidity...
Metallica?
Queensryche?
It's lucidity dumbass. LOL.
Well, I'll be; I had no idea. Both my S&P short and my Dec.'15 long Silver are in the money, today; but probably not for long. Now, what; foreign central banks are buying S&P futures ? why don't i just shoot myself and get it over with ?
No - for heaven's sake. Don't shoot yourself just yet!!!!! We have so much more fun to go!!!!!!
First we will have some type of crash - say....stocks or bonds. Then the FED will step in - because that is what they do - and after that we will possibly have a hyperinflationary depression. That will be the start of a real low point. You could reconsider offing yourself then.
Should we all BTFD?
If there ever is one again, yes.
There was one today. Go for it. I dare you.
If that doesn't make you indecisive nothing will.
You can't buy the dip,congress critters can only be rented. Oh, you must mean the market....
So, there it is in all it's glory.
Confirmation it's all make believe.
Now we know why the need for DHS inside of Treasury.
Default coming.
Yep. We should have every reason to believe that DHS is being invited to invade entire Cabinet departments to root out any whistlelblowers, squealers, and tellers of truth. We live behind a Digital Curtain run by Bookburners.
Congress talking about liquidity is hilarious considering their budgeting process...
I hear Ex-Lax is great for liquidity. The Congressman should try it.
The congressman did it backwards. The pill went up his ass and the liquidity is coming out of his mouth
Pretty awesome little juicy bits in that letter, actually.
So what else do all the congress critters know? Are they continuing their rampant insider trading on said information as well? If this isn't fascism, then what is?
"It's not fascism when we do it." —standard government disclaimer
And in other news...
Same congressman confirms he's an idiot.
Mitch Mc. Onnell ( Mc Onnnel) lookng for foreign handouts?
The Dispatcher {minority leader} of the house, can't wait until January?
All I see is purple! Bitchez
That letter was a polite BIG FUCK YOU SHEEP
...It is ebb and flow, tidal gravity! It is ecological balance! You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples. There are no nations. There are no peoples. There are no Russians. There are no Arabs. There are no third worlds. There is no West. There is only one holistic system of systems, one vast and immane, interwoven, interacting, multivariate, multinational dominion of dollars. Petro-dollars, electro-dollars, multi-dollars, reichmarks, rins, rubles, pounds, and shekels. It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic and subatomic and galactic structure of things today! And YOU have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and YOU... WILL... ATONE! ... [/Arthur Jensen]
Thanks Buzz, I needed that.
Here's a gift

Short the usd you knucKLE HEAD. Any currency trader understands the reason why usd (vs) anything weakened during the (DXY) reallignment in 2002-2004.
The DXY peak in 2006'7 wasn't about demand. If it was , then why did bond yields rise?
In the late nineties, before the euro was born, banks started rebalancing, (swaps agreements)
Banks needed clearing houses (exchanges) to close their "borrowing"
Here we sit, so broken hearted, come to shit and only FARTED!
Bitchez
Short the usd? Are you insane??
Pogue Colonel: Whose side are you on, son?
Private Joker: Our side, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Don't you love your country?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Then how about getting with the program? Why don't you jump on the team and come on in for the big win?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Yen,
When you say go short USD, what does the other side of that look like?
Danke
Each little 'new thing' is incorporated into the system as though it is no big deal. At the end of 6 years we are now in a completely different world yet the most of the population sees no change. When they realize it is their pension plans and IRAs on the line it will be too late. When they realize it is raising prices above what reasonable people would pay in normal times it will be even laterer. When they finally have that 'holy shit' moment the DOW will finally be at 36,000 and the dollar will be half way to toast.
I guess Zimbabwe did not make much of an impression.
The dollar is more than half way to toast now
Is there really a helicopter though?
I heard the FED or someone had a helicopter they just dropped money out of to spread wealth around.
No helicopter. Helicopters can be shot down. They just mainline the stuff straight to TBTJs and let them worry about taking fire.
Always liquidity, liquidity, liquidity. Get rid of GLass Stegal- liquididy. Ditch GAAP accting-liquidity, The uptick rule-liquidity. Central bank buying- liquidity. So how much are you willing to risk in the name of liquidity? Whats it worth to you?
Looks pretty runny, watery, liquidy like liquid 5$#@ if you ask me, How bout something solid.
slosh, slosh
Wait till his constituents lose their shirts in a market crash, then let's see him explain liquidity to them.
It will be blamed on lack of liquidity and they will demand more liquidity form the Fed
Significant oversight by the CFTC?
Yahooooooooooooooooo......
Geee. I wonder what happens when they decide to start selling?
What a delightful thought; i can't wait to find out.
Why would they ever sell? Japan's CB buys the March futures up to 2200, and the ECB buys the June futures to keep it even higher. The suckers that sell when March comes around and S and P settles at 2300 lose a ton to Japan, since it settle in cash, they then use surplus funds to have even more buying power to buy September futures up to help ECB CB, this could go on for a long time till the whole system collapses.
The mere fact that they have to keep doing this in ever greater amounts means it is collapsing now and has been for some time. We are in the midst of the greatest economic upheaval in history and almost everyone thinks it has yet to happen. This is not a big thing. This is a huge thing. Huge things take even more time than big things.
Whatever. It is happening all around us.
well, it IS good for liquidity
Traitor.
consider, though, that if you consider this congressman of being a traitor, then you should consider a traitor too every and each one that voted for an unbalanced/deficit budget since WWII - that's a lot of betrayal
Mr. and Mrs. Pessimistic invited me and the wife over for New Year's, and I am really getting a kick out of these pathetic replies!!!

I suppose there is some benefit to the peons. Gona be a lot of people not too happy when 401k's and pensions get wiped out. We're all in this together, like it or not. Of course we'll be taking the brunt of it and could quit literally end up with NKorea living conditions. I'm a step ahead as I have 10 cats I could eat.
Something tells me this guy won't be eating his though....

I've heard that cats have sometimes fed on their owners after their suicide. Using a shotgun to do it is way more difficult than a handgun but it'd make a lot more catfood.
i think i detect a certain degree of numbness creepin' into the ZH realm. hope it's not a '15 harbinger.
i guess in 2008 when a few trillion of americas tax-dollars dollars went to forgien cb's. and there wasn't much stink, and non-exesitent reporting of this, the mold was set.
the globalist have put us into a global economy, for better, or worse, and it was easy for them.
See...Need a list of conspiracies that have been proven fact on ZH.
BTFD its software stupid.
Think what might be possible with controlling derivative interests in every S&P 500 company . . .It's genius. Print the fiat, buy the futures, own the executives, own their employees, own the government, create the New Order.
You point about no limit poker with a billionaire.
Why don't we pass a law allowing foreigner to buy up American household debt?
- They they can put US Debtors in Work Prisons for their debts instead of allowing bankruptcy.
So what are Foreigners buying:
- Businesses
- Buildings
- Real Estate
- Farmland
- Equities & Bonds
- Commodity Futures
- US Long Term Treasuries
$28 Trillion Foreign ownership.

WTH... we want more rich monopolies even if they are foreigners who demand delivery of our food, oil, gas, precious metals,...
The Royals & Lords in Congress & Fed don't care what health care bankruptcies do to the Middle Class or that Debt leads to slavery... ship more jobs overseas... bring in more low wage workers. S/
Print fake Money, Compete with Citizens real Money, Gotcha..
have to simplify this stuff if you want, to spread it around....
Please enlighten me as to where exactly there are legal limits on types of assets the Federal Reserve can hold on balance sheet. Sure, it's TRADITION for CBs to hold currency, sovereign debt, and gold, but why can't they invest in things like paintings or fine wine which are both tangible assets that can be seen and touched ... because derivatives like ES, NQ, CL, ZS, etc. are not physical things. You could say that SPY and QQQ represent baskets of corporate equites but not so for ES and NQ.
As one of the keystones of the "Abenomics" of competitive devaluation it's been more than 12 months since the Bank of Japan announced that they're inflating their domestic stock market (buying NIKKEI 225) as well as their real estate market (buying REITs). Several other central banks, notably Israel, where one of their chiefs is a dual-citizen with a position in the US Fed and it's like the old monarchies that married off their children to another country to cement alliances.
Meyer Rothschild said something like if you give me the power to issue money it doesn't matter who makes the laws. Jewish bankers rule the world and nobody cares.
Well, here we are, folks. Jewish bankers control the money and make each other richer and richer while the most successful opposition at the moment seems to be ISIS which doesn't want my support because I'm a Jew but still wish them godspeed.
I risked a 5-year prison sentence for draft evasion to Viet Nam and am proud to say I never registered with Selective Service but if I were that age now I'd be thinking about enlisting to get training and experience in armed struggle. Fuck em.
this is just another way to redistribute the middle-class worker out of existence.
the fed., boe., boj, and the ecb will get the dow up to 25,000, the s&p up to 3,000, and nasdaq up to 7,000, then the executive pen will come out.
401k's, from this date forward, will be non-transferable, retroactive back to inception.
at redemption, you'll be taxed on gross amount, and your check will be mailed to you by the irs, after your principal donations, and their accrued earnings, are separated from tax deferred earnings, (you didn't build that).
