It Really Is As Simple As That

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Six years after we first explained the only thing that matters for this "market", JPMorgan finally figured it out, and in doing so proudly joined the ranks of the "tinfoil hat, conspiracy theorists" unable to grasp the finer nuances of the Magic Money Tree theory.

Now, who else can't wait for the Fed's first rate hike in nearly a decade?

Bullshit. Jamie Dimon knew years ago too but he was  too busy  becoming a billionaire to mention it.

I find it hard to believe this graph is from JP Morgan. You'd think they'd be smart enough to put Operation Twist on that graph as well.

"And its all asset classes, too."  A humorously not-understood point by the mainstream.  QE artificially pumped the price of stocks AND bonds.

Enjoy . . . 

"Unfortunately, overall it seems that QE had a much larger impact on bond and stock prices than on real economic activity. Government bond yields widened when the Fed was expanding its balance sheet while corporate spreads over bond yields narrowed. Stock prices were positively impacted by QE as well and have lost a lot of momentum since QE ended. Manufacturing surveys, in the US and globally, have been affected by QE but real economic indicators such as employment, small business intentions, and GDP have shown little relationship to changes in the Fed’s balance sheet level."

Except gold, of course.

(Yes, early QEs helped that too, but what has QE done for AU lately? Fund naked short sellers, that's what.)

Are the banks who's interest The Federal Reserve represents at risk in the event that the markets crash?  I'd really like to know the answer to that question, because if they are not at risk and can weather and/or benefit from a market crash, I would anticipate a rate hike and no QE.  If they are at risk, then sure, a tiny rate hike for optics followed by QE4.

Until printing money stops working, money printing is what will be done.  There is no turning this around now.  We've long since crossed the Rubicon of unpayable debt, so money printing is the only salve that will temporarily ease the pain.  Stop printing, pain quickly returns.

If you're gonna hit the wall someday, it doesn't matter if you default while owing $1 or $100,000,000,000,000, your goose is just as cooked either way.

So let the equities tumble.

What will then happen is that the Bonds will follow, then the RE. Fire in FIRE.

And then commodity complex all built on leverage will become WC7.

What can the US do to avoid that spiral?

The FED needs to raise the rates. That will be an indication that those who had to take higher grounds have already done so. Probably one of the reasons why all the banks are demonstrating enlightenment.

Ya know, trying to determine the birth of Christ is a fool's errand looking at all available cosmology (charts), discounting Rev. 12 ..

https://youtu.be/O44nNzRa81Q

t-minus 3 days and counting ..

In the same manner, trying to determine global economic health via chart porn alone, sans all available geo-political intelligence ..

https://app.box.com/s/hfgvcqg7gqh7i27at6sv53ywu87lwarp (Start with 11 minute teaser. If you are not teased at that point, forget it. Your blue pill has been well digested.)

They cannot raise rates. (Rates are being effectively raised for them via market forces alone.) They cannot do QE4. No bonds to sell. Not enough buyers to buy literally hundreds of trillions. (mathematical impossibility) They have painted themselves into a corner. There is no way out. Only monetary reset. The FED is now irrelevant. They know that, but they lie to themselves.

The only solution here is the Wanta Plan. It has been presented time immemorial to the G20. At some point, they have no choice but to accept it. They will. Perhaps the real reason for the papal visit on the 23rd, is a personal and secret meeting at the FED to simply give them notice. A new paradigm is afoot. Let the ensuing theological debates and discussions begin ..

It is kind of shitty to go onto someone else's web site to promote yours. Like going into the local restaurant to hand out flyers for your restaurant. Bad manners!
