Could you put that into less technical terms for the AAPL stock buyers?
Sure.... It looks like a steep hill. Want to slide?
That graph is based on math, what the Fed does is not.
I get it. Assets are debts and debts are assets! Hooray :)
I believe I've finally grasped what the Fed's methodology is. The other day I had just opened a two liter Dr. Pepper, and was in the process of fixing a glass,
when the bottle slipped out of my hand. It landed on the counter and spilled some of the contents before I could grab it up. Well, I stared at the
less than full, newly open bottle with disgust. But then I had an epiphany!! I picked up the cap and screwed it on the bottle, and shook it vigorously,
AND BEHOLD, once again I had a full bottle of Dr.Pepper. Those Fed. folks are geniuses I tells ya.
(for the record I was not paid by Dr. Pepper for product placement)
"(for the record I was not paid by Dr. Pepper for product placement)"
Sounds like a like I should buy Dr Pepper stock!!
Stoffel, is that you?

you mean that tech stock that is still up 25% compared with a return of 11 percent for the S&P technology sector.
you mean the stock that **already** regained, unlike china, most of what it lost?
http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/aapl/stock-comparison
Yeah...**you're** right....
Leaving aside the fact most of you don't understand that apple stuff is still consistently the best or near-best in software and hardware terms {and I like samsung and htc a lot too} - you're not even right on the fucking market metrics.
well, some men...you just can't reach.
True believer.
What could go wrong?
What is wrong with today's economic system?
People becoming incredibly rich through gambling?
Wealth redistribution the old fashioned way.
Fair enough, AAPL makes nice stuff. But I believe they were saying the same thing about BlackBerry/RIM 10 years ago.
"Fuckupedness" is not part of Common Core, so I am afraid you will have to repeat a grade.
Ebonics, my brutha
Fedonics also known as Moronics to insiders.
The chart is not enough steep. Just saying.
So simple, yet so accurate.
Finally, a chart with axis labels I can understand.
It does not get any better than that lol...
yes
Hmmm. Is it just me or is "fuckupedness" misspelled? Fuckedupness???
Just curious.
does it matter?
What DIFFERENCE does it make?
-Cankles the clown
even the word fucked up, is fucked up ?
Make like a tree and get the hell out of here.
it is a new way of using the word fuck. congrats to the inventor.
instead of a level of fucked-up
it insinuates a dynamic level of the state of being a fuckup....
If one say to himself that "I am really fucked up", then you really are in so many ways.
Like *Extra Big Ass Fries*
Merriam/Websters had : fuckedupness
Cambridge had : fuckeduppedness
tomato/potato let's call the whole thing off
The "fuck" is not in the past only; that would be incomplete, fucked, it is not just the verb form (the activity of fucking) happening in the past. It has nouniness to it.
The "fuckup" being charted is in the past tense, and has both verbiness and nouniness to it; now we are getting closer to the meaning and nature of things: fuckuped.
Meanwhile fuckuped, too, is incomplete. The designer of the chart is trying to express a state of being for markets, an essence, and indeed for perhaps the entire planet, thus the chart is tracking the ordinal value, the state of fuckupedness.
Everything is normal, not F'ed Up one bit. Central bankers do know what they're doing - the WSJ says so.
123 Owners per ounce? No biggie. Take all the gold you, we'll print more...and here's an $8 squash to go with it.
I Am COMEX gold.
I've got options on derivative squash, but they're not very tasty.
Paper squash. Yuck.
Onions, butter, salt, pepper, and garlic can sure fix a whole lot.
Won't fix paper gold though.
this is even without the audit.
What a fing joke of a close!!!
I'm so fing tired of this fing BS!!!
Not nearly enough money in the downside. When there is, we will see it. Still way too much wealth on the sidelines.
They must have it all.
The Federal Reserve Cartel: The Eight Families
http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-federal-reserve-cartel-the-eight-famili...
The Fed is privately owned. Its shareholders are private banks
http://www.globalresearch.ca/who-owns-the-federal-reserve/10489
the scheme is so simple few can understand it. paper money + interest = transfer of wealth from productive labor to the issuing power {banks}.
With a periodic "depression" in which real assets are bought for pennies on the dollar, and banks outside the FRS are crushed.
so, human nature remains the same as it ever was then?
Fine.
Fuck em, as that which cannot be sustained, won't be.

I think you may be the ghost of a poster of old, but thank you for the links. Very good reads.
Have a goo night.
should be more of a flat then a "weeeeeee" ramp (technical chart term) around 2008
Well, the chart goes up. Didn't cnbcxxx show it?
There is no spoon or x axis.
The vertical portion of the graph is when they're dropping instantly depreciating money from helecopters, capturing video via satellite of people scooping it up in the streets. Every dollar scooped is a dollar of debt owed by the scooper to the Fed. All cash will transform from debt instruments ("I Owe You") to bonds ("I Own You") and the Fed's balance sheet will reflect the mark-to-fantasy value of those new assets, aka people. Hence the theoretic limit in the chart on Fed asset value in the exponential phase, as each dollar dropped adds essentially zero value, but unlimited Fuckedupedness.
simplicity is soooo'oh ingenious?
That which cannot be sustained, won't be.
No matter how much stupid fucks ("rich" or "poor") cry and whine about it.
fuck em all.
Every parabolic ascent ends in a crash

Maybe not this time. Maybe this time it goes on up forever.
It's gonna form---a perfect circle

Never underestimate the power of delusion.
Prior to the Wright brothers, all flight had been parabolic...a slow start resulting in an even shorter and seemingly quick rise, only to fall to earth even quicker, usually in a disastrous heap. What they discovered was that it had less to do with aerodynamics than horsepower. A cannon could have taught them that even a steel ball can fly if enough juice is put behind it. The only juice our economy needs is confidence. When we allow reality to interfere with our NEED to consume, the economy suffers, which is why our government invests so much into delusion. People don't need good jobs, they need to be told they have good jobs...that everyone has good jobs, so we should go and spend spend spend.
This belief that they can artificially stimulate the economic brain through delusion has worked impressively well, yet those of us trapped in a rational mind still deny it. WE will be proved correct in the end (and likely blamed for the result), but it will be of little consolation.
Once we have leapt off of a tall building in the belief that we can fly, they only thing left to do is flap our arms ever more wildly as the ground approaches in hopes that we really can fly.
....a fine example of simple chart porn.
The South was right!
It is going exponential, and as we know, the only thing that can go exponential forever, is the stupidity of US officials and not so official officials. Because stupidity of US officials is infinite.
Anything that is finite, cannot go exponential forever.
one has to say it....
SNAFU
situation normal. all fucked up.

btw where is my dip to buy?
We are getting a hockey stick up the wazoo.
Winner winner chicken dinner.
- Let's turn and burn.
- He's going vertical. So am I.
- We're going ballistic. Go get him!
- He's going for the hard-deck.
- Let's nail him.
In official Fuckedupedness vernacular, our current situation is best characterized by SNAFU.
When Apple has market cap of Eurozone GDP, we will know TARFU is upon us.
FUBAR is when the Guillotines & heads finally roll.
Wow...a chart that finally explains fractional banking in terms most can understand.
I really appreciate the high level of craftsmanship put into that drawing.
