Stock Buying-Panic Ensues As Fed's Bullard Says "Oil Has To Bottom Sometime"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Thanks to the following deep thought:

  • BULLARD: HAVE TO HIT A BOTTOM ON OIL PRICES 'SOMETIME'
  • BULLARD: WATER IS WET, SKY IS BLUE (just kidding)

... Oil prices are surging and that means buying panics unleashed in stocks...

 

This oil move has ripped The Dow 300 points higher:

Even as the Fed is folding, and exposing a lack of credibility and crushing the growth hope meme:

  • BULLARD: QUITE BIT OF CORRELATION IN OTHER COMMOD, OIL PRICES
  • BULLARD: MKTS TAKEN BY SURPRISE BY SPEED OF OIL PRICE DECLINES
  • BULLARD: WOULDN'T EXPECT A LOT OF APPRECIATION IN US$ THIS YR
  • BULLARD: ECB'S QE CAUSED LARGE MOVEMENTS IN '14 EXCH RATES
  • BULLARD: US$ 'VERY SENSITIVE' TO MON POLICY IN OTHER ECONOMIES

And stocks love it because it means that credibility aside, more easing may be coming.

 

Here's the real reason we ramped... (and why it's likely to stall)

I only have a couple of bottom dollars left.

“What is happening is really very much an emotional response,” Cohen told Elliot Gotkine on Bloomberg Television. “We need to put things into perspective. Stocks are probably the best place to be.”

I was just thinking "Oil is going to go down indefinetly." But then I heard this Bullard guy say that there will in fact be a bottom. So I bought STAWKS.

It's true, it has to bottom sometime, because the dollar cannot appreciate to infinity.

The market obviously thought that oil would keep going down infinitely and break below zero, but Bullard set them straight.

How do you think the Deep State funds its black ops? They know virtually every merger, rate change and quarterly report before the announcement. It's almost as good as getting tomorrow's newspaper (remember those things?) today. I don't know of any evidence that they are doing it but they could easily make billions and never be noticed. More porn for the SEC if they are noticed.

Why do you think Renaissance Tech is so succesful? its a prop fund that funds CIA/NSA black ops stuff

Why would they bother with selling drugs to fund black ops then? Seems like super insider trading would be a much more efficient way to rake in the dough.

It's divvied up with Sweden, Switzerland, Japan and others. Probably nothing but currency swaps actually reside on the Fed's books.

Snap. One wonders if the Fed sent out a secret memo to their cronies to get ready to sell into a Bulltard rally. We shall see!

Wouldn't it be nice if they did actually say that?  We know they're going to do it anyway when the wheels fall off this latest version of the never-ending shit show, so why not just say it?  You wanna see the market rip 800 points higher in a day?  That's all it would take.  Just one little sentence.

C'mon Janet!  Don't play all coy with us like that.  Just say it!

Actually, those are fundamental indicators. But, what difference does it make when both indicators are so antiquated in the new normal?

Not the way they report the numbers nowadays.  

When I research a company (which I don't do any more because it's a stupid activity) I evaluate on a cash basis.  Harder to fake that.

They are being prudent while showing us that we are absolutely under their thumb. They could do even worse even faster with all the fiat money that we provide to them if they wanted to.
