Meanwhile, the Fed remains egregiously behind the market in rubber stamping market interest rates. I don’t know why they even bother. Rates are and always have been completely irrelevant until they become punitive in real terms. And even that is a byproduct of the central bank creating a money shortage.
The Fed is in the process of creating a money shortage now, but traders and their dealers have created their own money temporarily via the cycle of margin borrowing. That has a limited shelf life when the Fed isn’t there supplying an ever increasing backstop. Only the timing of the end is unknown. For that, we rely on the TA.
