HiHat Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 "They are yesterday?s heroes. Central banks ruled the world during some 22 years of disinflation. But like most champions, they have overstayed their welcome. The world?s major central banks ? the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan, and the European Central Bank ? have squandered the capital they built up in the long and arduous war against inflation. And now, with their policy arsenals dangerously depleted, they are woefully ill-equipped to cope with the ever-daunting complexities of a post-inflation era. Bondholders beware: Your once-proud defenders have met their match. I fear modern-day central banking is on the brink of systemic failure. " roach

A. Blood screams the pain as they chop off her fingers Blood will be born in the birth of a nation Blood is the rose of mysterious union There's blood in the streets, it's up to my ankles Blood in the streets, it's up to my knee Blood in the streets in the town of Chicago Blood on the rise, it's following me

HiHat Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Their middle class is being destroyed by the constant devaluation and price inflation. Most have to work multiple jobs to pay for basic necessities; unless you are underprivileged, which in that case you get free food, electricity, and shelter. Many of the middle class save in dollars for inflation protection (when they can get them), they do not trust their stock market, and are not allowed to purchase US stocks from Venezuelans accounts. So they take their dollars, and schedule a trip to the US. Open a bank account. Some of the more savvy open up brokerage accounts. Others, who can only get access to Bs, buy real-estate as their only way hedge devaluation. So as the dollar continues its devaluation, what will the US people do? Save in other paper currencies like the Venezuelans? Will the US in act currency controls once the bond market is in turmoil and the stock market has tanked? Will the US government force 401ks and IRAs into Government bonds (for retirement safety, the stock market is too risky.) Will they prohibit the buying and "hording" of bullion? Will it be cheaper to use a George Washington as a sheet of toilet paper? Could this happen to the dollar?
brian4 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 You know Hi-Hat like you I read Roach all the time-first because he is a Stoolie at heart second because he is very SMART-how in Hell he keeps his job at that den of thieves I don't know but I'm damn glad he does. By the way the Bill Gross article he speaks of is a very good read from another SMART guy and Stoolie at heart.
scottcardiff Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Gawd, I hate to say this, but it may take Soup actually turning bullish before this POS market is a short. And who knows how much higher that could take us.
brian4 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 As a Canadian I am baffled why-Americans do not buyCanadian Government zero coupon Bonds with Yankee dollars which gives you a further 28% discount and then you sit back and enjoy a very high rate of return with no risk for say 5 to 7 years and by then the Looney will be par or close to it as you convert back to the Greenback. Think about it.
DrStool Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 End- The trend is so tight on ezpw, it's tough to get a wave. 1 year cycle cmap looks like 12.75-13.25. 6 wk cmap looks like 12. due in 2-3 weeks
DrStool Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 The loonie may be finished for awhile. 4 year cycle cmap was 78.
depends Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 This chart has once again reached nirvana ... but I think it is trying to give a preliminary sell signal. 6 dongs / 4 shorts / 3 metals
brian4 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Doc-I don't disagree the Loonie may consolidate in here but the long term trend is up, The zero coupons are a great buy with an even greater yield for both Canadians and Americans. The grey market is interesting when my wife and i shop across the line the looney premium in the store is only 10 to 15 cents to the greenback.
brian4 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 The other nite I Mentioned I bought some SSRI-wowza good day!
