On Wednesday, November 3, 2010, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced that it will print $600 BILLION to stimulate the U.S. economy. That announcement was a bald-faced lie.
The Fed would probably have to print up far MORE than that amount to keep the U.S. economy from imploding .. so prepare for double-digit inflation NOW>
The confidence that the market has placed in Mr. Bernanke is entirely misguided. I think anyone who really believes that he will print ONLY $600 BILLION in this second round of "quantitative easing" should have his head examined.
Some estimate that he would have to print FIVE TIMES that much; closer to $3 TRILLION to make any discernable difference.
Look: It's clear that Obama & Company want to be re-elected despite the public's great displeasure. It's also clear that they must re-invigorate the Democratic party despite the public's unfavorable opinion of Congress's actions these last 2 years. But if they want to accomplish those goals, they must first stimulate the economy.
Obama's big problem: The midterm elections have now GUARANTEED that Congress will NOT approve further stimulus spending. To the contrary: The leadership of the new Congress is committed to CUTTING the federal budget in every way they can.
That leaves the White House with just one, single, solitary tool for stimulating the economy and its a DANGEROUS one: The ONLY way left is to demand that the Federal Reserve take up the slack for the U.S. Congress; kick the printing presses into overdrive and flood the world with trillions of newly created U.S. dollars.
If any other Fed Chairman were at the helm they'd tell Obama to go get fucked. There's no way that Bill Martin (Fed Chairman under Eisenhower and Kennedy), Paul Volcker (under Carter and Reagan) or even Alan Greenspan would have caved into this bullshit idea from Nazi Germany that printing our way out works
I said this back on DDLR this would happen and some here said "shuttup racist" well get ready - here he comes now. He's turning into a Chocolate Jimmy Carter before your very eyes, so fuck you! I TOLD you fucking so didn't I!
But Bernanke? Oh he'll hold the hard line on the presses right..? Heck no! He's the man who virtually INVENTED money printing in modern America.
This is precisely why I now see massive new EXTREME volatility; and off-the-charts profit opportunities in every investment market you can name: Stocks. Bonds. Currencies. Precious metals. Oil and select commodities. And more, some will make money and you'll hear about fantastic new wealth and gains, but most will lose.
Why? Because to take gains from some point, causes losses upon other points and behind these "points" on paper are real people with real money at stake. You just don't create something from nothing, that's the law of physics: nature does not tolerate a vaccuum and alot of people will be hurt in the process.
So that's why I believe that this extreme volatility will present us with many of the greatest losses in generations despite some - very very few - of these "wonderful profit opportunities in generations" you're about to be seeing these next 2 years.
