If I was a Bond Holder would sell it and Buy Gold which is also a reserve assets for other CB. They have been buying bonds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dollar milkshake theory floating around Fintweet, is another example of, "it is different this time". The eventual meltup will be in hard assets since all paper currencies are competitively devaluing against each other. The Central Banks or Wall Street have done a masterful job of extending this game. I Don't buy that Milkshake Theories. They are fully loaded on that trade There will be so Much Butt wipes with Deficit spending that it's going to be Flushed down the Toilet like 2001. 2001 was the Best time to be in Gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply put, all these dollar denominated debts can just as easily default like all other debt if everything melts down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrStool Posted July 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 All I know is that the dollar has been declining slowly but relentlessly against the euro. It's not enough to hurt yet, but I'm concerned if there's a breakout, this could devolve quickly into a massive move. Above 1.20 eur/usd I'll start to feel it.

James Aitken is very good with system Plumbing https://ttmygh.podbean.com/e/teg_0002/ agree. That podcast series has been excellent. Really like the approach from these experienced individuals providing their 2 cents while listening to their thought process in real time. The one with Mike Green was just outstanding. Being in the business for almost 30 years, I only have respect for these professionals. If there is one thing this business teaches, it is humbleness. I have to say, one reason I have stuck with this board is the absolute respect for Lee. I appreciate his opinions and outlook on the markets. Always like listening to industry veterans and their stories, as well. This industry has turned into a speculative game for the most part. One reason, I realized long ago, the need for hard assets.

Fun Managers makes their money landing out stocks. which is driving the market higher. If ever passive try to sell there won't be any bid and will go to Zero.

jp6 Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Professor Richard Werner joins Hugh Hendry, founder and former CIO of Eclectica Asset Management, for a deep-dive into the world of central banking. They explore the process of credit creation and examine the fundamental role it plays in inflating asset bubbles, the popping of which can wreck whole economies but can be very good for central bankers. They analyze the Bank of Japan's (BOJ) remarkable record of credit expansion, including its use of lending quotas, through the lens of Werner’' renowned book, "Princes of the Yen," which was a number one bestseller in Japan. They also look at the ongoing efforts of the Fed and the European Central Bank (ECB) to provide liquidity during this unprecedented global crisis at all costs, particularly debt monetization and quantitative easing (a term Werner himself coined), which Werner suggests could lead to a widespread bank nationalization – or a "Sovietization" of the banking sector, as he says. Werner argues that the ECB is undemocratic and that it bears a closer similarity to the Reichsbank (1876 – 1945) than it does to the Bundesbank (1957-present). Hendry and Werner conclude their lengthy discussion by looking forward: they scrutinize the current and future monarchs of the global monetary order, deep-dive into the world of central banking. click here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrStool Posted July 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 THe funny thing is that sometime the banking system creates credit and money, and sometimes money only grows dollar for dollar with the amount the central bank prints. Or even less if the banks are in the mood to delever. Which is exactly what's happening now. Fed balance sheet is growing slightly faster than M2. Money is disappearing.

DrStool Posted July 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Ultimately, this will precipitate another crash. What will the Fed do then, if the propensity of the banks is to use the central bank money to pay down its debts. We don't know because it have never happened before, but my guess is systemic collapse, everybody goes broke, and somehow we start over from scratch, with the likelihood of an intervening dark age.
