Wait a minute. Let me understand. When this nimrod BUYS, shouldn't my put options go UP?

And when this nimrod SELLS, shouldn't my put options go DOWN? SO, if he is BUYING, why are

my put options going DOWN?????!!!!

Cannibal's are coming to Wall St. and the markets are getting 'frothy'. The question is who gets eaten first.....

Oh wait, he eats dogs, doesn't he?

Japan is the model for our financial system.

Yields on bonds sub 1% as buzzsaw said.

Crony manipulation of individual stocks if they are in any way systemic they will headfake going down the tubes, insiders will buy at maximum bloodshed then miracle save happens and new bagillionaires are minted.

That's the Japan way and now the defacto American way.

Just think maximum manipulation.

Firstly, the so-called 'Debt-Limit' is fictiious because it does not reflect spending, but the cost of creating enough currency to roll-over the pre-existing debt which serves as collateral for the currency...the spending being only the decision on who to give the money. This is the legacy of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

Truly.

And truly a mad system if ever there was one.

Secondly, there are two courses of action that are likely, depending on Congress' activities...

A) If Congress approves the debt limit increase...the monetary supply will expand by the amount of the increase...and that new money will go to the same old characters on Wall Street. Clearly, they think they'll get the money.

B) If Congress DOESN'T approve the debt limit increase, then the Federal Reserve isn't just going to throw in the towel. They already have 'permission' to buy commercial paper through open market operations...such as distressed CDO's and Mortgages. It can then use THOSE purchases to back the creation of more currency...which would go first to the same old characters on Wall Street. The main difference is that the Fed itself is looking increasingly unsavory with regards to its credit quality, which impacts directly on the Dollar as reserve currency...or as a currency at all.

So there you have an explanation of the actions of the Chart.

Heads...Wall Street wins.

Tails... same for Wall Street.

And if it lands on edge ... Right! Wall Street. Again.
