My Exchange With “Tyler Durden”
Tyler Durden is a “person” (or persons), who doesn’t want to reveal his true identity in public, instead cloaking himself behind a mythical cinema persona. That persona is who “Tyler” wishes he was, not who he is. You all know “Tyler.” He’s the guy who started and runs Zerohedge, which is a truly great...

So Let’s Talk Major League Baseball Attendance
So I’ve been riding the Miami Marilyns’ fans about their lack of a sellout in their new glass palace in the middle of an inaccessible city neighborhood location with no subway access and no interstates nearby, and a parking situation from hell (Can you say garage parking for 5600 cars, and scattered offsite 6...

European Panic Sweeps 700 Pound Gorilla Under The Rug

Market Not Twisting Fed’s Direction
Liquidity measures were mixed last week. Fed pumping continues at a minimal pace and Operation Twist won’t change that. Foreign central bank buying of Treasuries and Agencies remains exceptionally weak. However, the massive deposit flows from Europe into the US system continued. In spite of that, banks continued to dump Treasuries, adding to the...
