Broken Record Stupid Dog Tricks
In a rerun of last spring’s litany of takeover rumors comes one involving Bear Stearns and Warren Buffet. I guess the way this one works is Warren puts in a call, talks a little biz, and sources close to the scene float a rumor and then the stock (and market) ramps? The same game...

Meanwhile the Real Economy
After working the paper tiger monetary theme to death, it seems fitting to focus some on the swooning real economy. The bulls of course think that this can be cured simply by taking down rates without corresponding serious blowback (except in the inflation and collapsing US Dollar plays they hold), and I guess...

Will Toto Pull Back the Curtain
It took awhile but at last a big time money manager (John Hussman) tackled the myth about the Fed. We (Lee Adler and myself) were beginning to feel like Alice in Wonderland on this one. The liquidity myth is repeated over and over in my comment section and elsewhere. Therefore I am just going...

Pump Up The Volume, Ben- WSE Pro
The Fed pumped up the volume today pushing in $10 billion in overnight repos while only $3 billion were expiring. That brought the 5 day net add to a whopping $1.25 billion. Woo. I’m underwhelmed.

Beavis and Butthead Learn One of Life’s Lessons
Readers will recall the Bank of England’s Meryvn King proclaiming that financial bail outs would not be forthcoming as they simply encouraged moral hazard behavior. However, with a bank run on Northern Rock well underway, the BoE was forced to both eat their words and lose their credibility with a rescue package. Now comes...

Is The Fed Flushing Out The “Excess Credit” Demons?
My summary answer to this question is “no”. The debate spurring my remarks here, which is presently raging in the Fed-skeptic/hard money camp, has splintered into the “austere Fed” vs. “profligate Fed” sub-camps. There are assumed to be important practical ramifications of the answer to this question regarding investing, trading, and...

Turning a BB Gun Into a Machine Gun?
After the fireworks of the last week a number of readers have asked me a general question about “grading” the Fed and other central banks, and also about the effects of the latest move.
I would divide the impact of central banks like the Fed into two categories. One are their actual operational actions, and...

Shocking, Simply Shocking – WSE Pro
The market backed up toward Wednesday’s high with little conviction Friday, but there’s not yet any sign of an important top developing, and price projections continue to point higher. The question is whether the market is preparing itself for a massive breakout through the July highs. Click here to download complete report in pdf...

So Much For the Fictitious Fed Surge- WSE Pro
The fantasy Fed liquidity surge continues to not happen. While the media and the pundits continue to bray about the gazillions the Fed has pumped into the market over the past month, once again today, they stood pat, doing the exactly the same amount of weekend repos as were expiring. The net add on...

Ron Paul Reams Bernanke a New One
Lee Adler has made the September 12 podcast available in its entire as a freebie. It’s still timely.
This extraordinary rant from Ron Paul stands on it’s own as he reams Bernanke a new one about his inflationary, bail out, moral hazard policy of favoring Wall Street while destroying the money of anybody who dares...

A nasty asset rises to new highs?
The HUI FCS signal remains on a BUY for precious metals with our GDX long position now up 21% in less than three weeks! It is encouraging to still see bearishness and outright denigration of gold as it finally surges to a new high once again. An uptrend in all time frames is the type of nasty behavior I happen to like most...

Breadth Thrust or Systemic Shock – WSE Pro
The market grunted on Thursday. Was it just a healthy pullback, or the beginning of something more sinister? A couple of the sectors that had the biggest breakouts on the heels of Tuesday’s Fed action reversed their breakouts to fall back below the top line of the base patterns. Unless they recover immediately that’s...

Fed Faces Godzilla – WSE Pro
The Fed came face to face with a $27.75 billion repo rollover and didn’t flinch, replacing it all and adding another $1.25 billion to bring the 5 day net to a $6 billion add. That and the $18 billion in Treasury debt paydowns settling today didn’t help the stock market but short term T-bill...

Blowback

A few news snippets of note. China decides to deal with their inflationary spiral with price controls on services and goods the government controls. This type of strategy is often employed in corrupt, crony capitalist systems to steal for the benefit of hacks and parasites....

Bullish Evidence Piles Up – WSE Pro
The market put a little more ammo in the bull quiver, not only holding on to Tuesday’s spectacular gain, but extending it. However, while there’s nary a sell signal to be seen anywhere (except for very long term indicators which can lead by many months), the market really hasn’t done anything. It’s still in...

The Mythical Easy Fed – WSE Pro
Fed funds traded at the new target of 4.75% and the Fed didn’t need to add reserves to keep it there. In open market operations today, the Fed added $9.75 billion in overnight repos against the same in expirations, leaving the 5 day net at a drain of $12.25 billion. So much for the...

Like Showing Slasher Movies to Four Year Olds
Although I should be no more shocked by the Fed’s move yesterday than I would be with an Uncle Ernie child molestation, the actions and moves beforehand set me up to be fooled. I was extremely cautious for sure, but they’ve been acting so responsibly, no monetizations, adds being quickly removed, speeches about...

Market Takes off on Return of Helicopter Ben – WSE Pro
Ben fired the starter’s pistol and the dogs took off after the rabbit. It was a wild race. Will the dogs collapse in exhaustion tomorrow? The charts say that they have room to run toward new projections on the 13 week cycle. The problem is that they might get there by 11:00 AM. Then...

Zimbabwe Ben Says Inflate Again- WSE Pro
The Fed’s statement to the effect that “Today’s action is intended to help forestall some of the adverse effects on the broader economy that might otherwise arise from the disruptions in financial markets,” implies that perhaps the worst may be yet to come. But the markets weren’t reading it that way after the announcement...
