the Fed should also extend the maturity of their toxic junks, by 200000 years or so.

You do know it is AAPL earnings day today?  The cannibal feast of capitalism for 161 hedge funds and 58 global banks.

I'm not afraid of AAPL. One of the things about feasts is eventually everybody gorges themselves then somebody is the first to take a shit.

Raise rates? The only thing Bernank has going for him is 3 years of 0% rates, thats it.

Thats why the market is so ... bizzarre - of course gold and silver stocks tanking the most while SPX melts up on POMOs. When is this charade going to end ??? I thought july and august had broken the back of the people running this stupid trade but looks like i was wrong.

No one has any liquidity and they need to dump their bonds.

The problem is bids are are too low and keeping the interest rates from skyrocketing is a modest problem.

Hard to inject liquidity when what you are buying is worthless, and there is a lot of it.

These fucking assclowns have 2 mandates and they've fucked them both up like some idiot groom who fucks the stripper.

Mandate 1: Maximum employment.  The only way they can get it to 9.2% unemployment is to Enron the numbers.

Mandate two: Stable prices.

Bernanke's only tool is to print so he prints.

 

The problem now is not monetary but fiscal. That means idiots in Congress and Whitehouse needs to actually do something.

But lobbyst have neither of Fed's mandates. Their only mandate is make rich richer.

Jews know where the money is....in China. Already making claims of relevance to take over banking there. Unlike europe, they have one problem: they don't look Asian.

Chinese will never let Jewish Bankers get a foothold in their country, they are absolutely paranoid about Jews.  Chinese are smart.
