Fed-nado Crushes Stocks And Crude; Long Yields Hit Record Low
How Treasury Shorts felt this afternoon...
What hungry stock market cheerleaders heard from The Fed...
Two words - Thanks Janet...
all dumping after a quick kneejerk hjigher post-FOMC
Dow dropped 400 points off the overnight highs!!
And S&P crushed 55 points from post-AAPL highs...
The S&P finished "not" off the lows...
S&P and Dow break below their 100DMA - we're gfonna need a Fed Speaker stat!
On the week, stocks are ugly.. withg Nasdaq leading the selloff
Which leaves everthing red year-to-date...
and Dow and S&P down since the end of QE3
Financials slowly but surely catching down the ugly reality in credit...
And energy stocks just can't stop trying...
The USDollar gained post FOMC but remains lower on the week...

Commodities had been weaker into the FOMC statement but gold outperformed post..
A lot of turmoiling today...
Crude was smashed to new cycle lows (after record supply, big build, and Fed)
Kiwi was monkey-hammered... (and has been since SNB as carry trades are unwound)
Treasury Yields collapsed
to new record 30Y yield lows...
And finally, because a day like that would not be complete without it...

Sounds like tomorrow is a good day to buy shares of Tesla
Cramer and Liesman are pulling each others hair out right now.
They know nothing.
(Paraphrasing Cramer from 2007).
I’m no quant, but the duration and the vector of those charts looks a tad more than disconcerting.
Bonus video. ...nice
MOAR COWBELL
Time to attack someone, anyone.
I thought they started in Greece, no?
FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO, FED-NADO
FEDO-OCALYPSE.
BOOM...DONE...IT'S OVER, BITCHEZ...
Hey...crazy fucking idear, here.....TOTALLAY FUCKING CRAZY, I know...
But hey, just think about it. Think about it. Just think...
What IF!!!!????
What the fuck if you or someone you know did something totally fucking CRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAZY!!!?????
What IF!!! those people were taught how to trade in their worthless shit paper for REAL gold and silver?????
ah, fuckit,,,,,nobody cares anyhowe's....
But what if????
Not if you have been long volatility and have been losing your ass.....It looks fantastic! It is only a matter of time as the corrupt bankers cannot keep this rigged market going forever.
“The conclusion to be drawn is that an out-of-control financial sector is eating out the modern market economy from inside, just as the larva of the spider wasp eats out the host in which it has been laid.” — Martin Wolf
X the NY Fed desk take the day off?
They must be working each other's pubes to find any hair
Does anal hair count? I have a mental image of Liesman diggin his nose in Cramer's ass.
I highly suggest you consult a therapist about that mental image..
I pity you.
Liesman was on TV today, again saying that housing was about to accelerate due to houshold formation. I nearly fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard.
They aren't pulling hair out. Those two monkeys are just searching for ticks.
i for one am so glad that the shadow of crisis has passed! (thank you president obama)
I think the shadow was for the next crisis, it just depends on where the light is positioned.
It should be coming soon.
What's that joke about the drunk man who lost his car keys looking under the lamppost?

BTFD. Fed's gonna' do NIRP now so corporations can further indebt themselves by borrowing at -1% interest and buy even more of their shares back.
Free, efficient MARK-IT.
The Truth!!
Interestingly, the Dow 30 have bought back the fewest number of shares since 2010.
So even they are not buying their own bullshit any longer, even if the money they are using is free.
Fed-nado whips patiently through Wall Street as police watch on the sidelines.
That's it sheep, run to the "safe" paper...
Baaaaaaa!
yup, selling the stocks they purchased at all time highs for a loss to purchase bonds that are now at all time highs so as to protect their capital during these uncertain times is a rock solid plan with which nothing can go wrong...
Ha! 1st intelligent thing you've said here since you registered on ZH!

iPhoneconomy.
If you thought the "lost decade" of Japan was bad, just wait for the "lost quarter century" that the U.S. is headed into.
applenomics. slave labor for 40 percent margins. plutomics defined.
ALL electronics are made in China by FOXCONN for slave wages-including your favorite phone, tablet and PC
Wait - Japan is no longer lost? Shit, I think a decade would be like 2005. Japan may have been lost prior to that . . .
The US is simply going to be lost.
If Yellen follows through, real interest rates will remain negative all through 2015.
That means currency quality will dominate investment decisions, and long rates may continue to tank. The least awful currencies: Iceland, Singapore, Swissy, and US will see massive inflows, because..., there's a lot of horse apples out there.
So then, what you're saying is a strong dollar is good right? It's good for Ahhmerika then? I like the sound of a strong dollar!(repeated all the clueless sheep after seeing a blurb on yahoo finance about a strong dollar)
Good for imports, price discovery, stability, bad for exporters of generic or highly competitive stuff.
Germany did very well with a strong currency in the seventies, as did US in the fifties/sixties and Japan in the 80s.
Tell me more about these "horse apples" ?
I simply can't believe there are that many retards out there who would be shorting treasuries.
An expensive carry, and at best way early. It's all about quality now, or the lack thereof;)
"retards"? Watch it pal, stop describing me.
aye, ... gambling is a tax on ignorance
Wait. What?
Where's the copper, silver, gold, crude chart?
I do like all the dead kitties in the crude chart though.
The Fed can always talk down the rate risk later in the year when it finally catches up to the fact that the US is sliding into a recession. Between now and then it can at least reduce the speculative fervor that seems to have gotten away from its 'buy risk' exhortations. something like 'talking down the bubble.'
I can already hear Janet saying "just a flesh wound"

LOL Red year to date. Wake we when we're "red decade to date."
So called russian world ZH and it's troll support:
http://youtu.be/PTxi7o2eXzg
Notice that those terrorists torture, beaten up and LifeNews is with those terrorists. So now you know how "objective" lifenews is. Actually criminal organization
You know what's really criminal? Your Ukie friends deliberately bombed and killed civilians.
Putin regime terrorist leader admit attack on Mariupol:
http://youtu.be/yxThzJ9gVE8
Osce confirms that:
http://www.osce.org/ukraine-smm/136061
There now confirmed 31 civilian dead (includin 2 children) and 100 injured after this attack on civilians:
http://youtu.be/qF46B6xOKw4
That is a war crime.
Today people of Mariupol had to bury whole family - husband, wife and a child all killed by these Putin regime terrorists:
http://youtu.be/29DhYERU3G0
They will never forgive that to Putin and it's goons:

all this science Fiction is produced in Kiev via moviemaker, Photoshop and paid shills
Kiev's greatest export: lies and total idiots like you, Femdom123
From Wikipedia:
Mussolini's corpse
"On 29 April 1945, the bodies of Mussolini, Petacci, and the other executed Fascists were loaded into a moving van and trucked south to Milan. There, at 3:00 am, they were dumped on the ground in the old Piazzale Loreto. The piazza had been renamed "Piazza Quindici Martiri" in honor of 15 anti-Fascists recently executed there.
After being shot, kicked, and spat upon, the bodies were hung upside down on meat hooks from the roof of an Esso gas station. The bodies were then stoned by civilians from below. This was done both to discourage any Fascists from continuing the fight and as an act of revenge for the hanging of many partisans in the same place by Axis authorities. The corpse of the deposed leader became subject to ridicule and abuse. Fascist loyalist Achille Starace was captured and sentenced to death and then taken to the Piazzale Loreto and shown the body of Mussolini. Starace, who once said of Mussolini "He is a god," saluted what was left of his leader just before he was shot. The body of Starace was subsequently hung up next to the body of Mussolini."
Putin-Goon, Obozo-Goon, Netanyaho-Goon., what's the difference?
.
...and yet somehow Ukrainian nationalists were not welcome at a memorial service for those killed in the Mariupol attack. Why is that?
http://fortruss.blogspot.com/2015/01/ukrainian-nationalists-not-welcome-...
Maybe it has something to do with Mariupol residents reporting that the shelling came from the direction of Ukrainian military positions.

imagine that- a pussy calling ZH trolls! go back to putting on your girlfriends bras and panties and leave the real work to the real men and women here-and you are late to your Propaganda 101 classes-you make an excellent 'useful idiot' for Porky Pig and Kiev! lolz!
My wife said you people here at the Hedge are brainwashing me.
Stop it.
You know, for years I rather hoped the collapse would happen. A complete financial meltdown, revolution, thinning the herd, the works. A chance for retribution. A chance to build a new, better world out of the ashes of the old one. A chance to finally wipe the slate clean and give everyone a fresh start.
Now that the collapse has actually begun and things are now in motion, I want no part of it. I've been preparing for five years for this thing, and you know what? It terrifies me.
Why can't the future be shiny and rosy and everything turns out OK?
Sorry Bro...time for society to pay the piper for being so ignorant. The hubris will not go unpunished
"if you're scared, take your punk ass to church."
Or, take your punk ass to Temple & hitch a ride...
The future can be shiny if you own PMs!
Wendigo...ditto...
and the answer is because we are humans and we use our politicians the enhance our lives. We (collectively, not me damnitall) asked them to make more promises and print more money to pretend our future could be better. We have done this for centuries. Politicians have tried every way they know to please us but they always fail because we ask the impossible. This round of failure will be spectacular. Not only will another currency collapse into nothingness but the entire world that calls the dollar money will go with it. Next time we will likely get it right. I really believe this. It has taken wars and depressions and numerous currency failures to see the right way but I think the next system will be better if not actually good.
Novus Ordo Seculorum?
Because we are finally running out of the Koolaid?
This:
for five years for this thing, and you know what? It terrifies me.
Why can't the future be shiny and rosy and everything turns out OK?

I came to terms with my own death while drunk, coming off a cocaine high, and having a loaded .357 at my temple. Hit me then that I had a finite amount of days and that I shouldn't waste any of them. It was the most liberating experience of my life.
The future is peaceful and pastoral for those who survive;

read them 'backwards', from the most recent ones on the right side of the page.
Time for QE4.
fuck that! im wainting for QE7!!
Should be fun to watch the welfare safety net collapse
Up arrow for ya, but I beg to differ if it will be "fun", if what you refer to is when all the freebies from uncle stooge run dry. I will be happy to watch from the sidelines if so fortunate, while the last cup cake or twinkie leaves the shelf.
That is what really scares me.
It will be shear panic when some people realize getting something to eat doesn't involve running an EBT card through a scanner at WalMart. It will be interesting from a distance but I would never use the word fun here.
Oh I'll be at a distance all right
100 yards is sporting.
No, 1000 yards with a .26 Nosler is sporting, 100 yards is too fucking close!

nice guys. honest, patriots, out for the good of mankind.
damn shame what happened to them. the rest of us should be paying them back forever. longer than the pyramids (oh damn, they built those on slavery, need to pay them back for that too).
i can't help but laugh.
sucker - all of us.
What is the longest period of time that NIRP has persisited? We are about to find out.
What happens when NIRP ends....ditto....

Just to let you guys know, if you need to get stuff now is the time. Went to Academy Sports to pick up some stuff. Guy behind the counter said, if you need to get anything the time grows short. Sales are so bad here we may have to turn into a resturant and bar. Retail apocalypse is upon us.
Why wouldn't we wait for the BK sale?
Because the "good" stuff won't be available...ammo, guns....things you actually need...that's why
Oh, yea.

Couple months ago I was at World Market and checking out I said something about this being Christmas shopping this year. The guy tuned into it, asking me if I was "prepared for the revoluiton"?
Hmmmm

That reminds me I need to find my water purifier.
Just got a great one with an extra filter at GaNDER mountain...about 4000 gallons of water and you can pump any water source
I suggest a British Berkey. Plus an extra set of candles. Use it every day. Make prepping a part of your everyday life. Distance yourself from the system every day.
Strongly recommend Gravidyn by Katadyn. Gravity fed, no pumping.
Multiple water filtering methods here, Berkey, Sawyer, pool shock.
I like this prep site I came across: http://codegreenprep.com/
Get a library of shit you don't know but might need to know is a good idea. I download pdfs, free kindle books, and cut and paste of web pages I find educational - useful. 12 volt solar to laptop recharge is a decent backup. So is a mesh wifi program if the net goes down. Scrounging batteries on freecycle for the hell of it.
I already have some good ones, but backup is good.
Did you know you can bring batteries back to life with this gadget?

i disagree. she knows exactly what she is doing. she is a little childless female imp. there was a term once. starts with 'w'.
she is going to start the party and there is going to be a lot of pain.
jamie and lloyed already felt some pain - there fixed income trading was down in 2014 +/- 20%. they know at the same rate 2015 will not be better.
how do they make money? put the shorts on and crash equities.
jamie and lloyd fell no more pain. they won't be down 20% in 2015.
do you feel it? you have a 401k?
