Liquidity Cliff Came Early this Year, Unlike Easter. Will Markets Be Risen?

The cliff came early. I had projected August under the assumption of politics as usual. That assumption was wrong. Politics no longer works the way it used to, i.e., under a system of checks and balances. The one-party state lifted the debt ceiling by $5 trillion in the context of the rump BBB bill through Congress and the President signed it into law, without the usual down-to-the-wire Kabuki theater. Instead, we now have strongman theater.

We need to get used to that. Although that does not mean that future policy enactment will be any more predictable.

So now we have to ask. Will markets rise?

Can pigs fly?

Here’s the answer.
