Thus, the BIG question for US stocks is whether the market has already digested all the QE hype to the point that threats of additional liquidity does nothing, OR if the Bernanke “Put” is still in play.
Thus, the BIG question for US stocks is whether the market has already digested all the QE hype to the point that threats of additional liquidity does nothing, OR if the Bernanke “Put” is still in play.
While this might not seem like a big deal, I can assure it is THE most significant issue the financial markets face right now. The reason for this is that IF the Bernanke “Put” is no longer relevant, that is additional liquidity and bailouts, doesn’t actually induce a rally anymore… then the entire financial system will collapse in one form or another.
Remember, the only thing that pulled us from the brink in 2008 was Bernanke printing like a lunatic. It’s the ONLY thing that has held the market together. And while it may have kicked off a major rally in stocks… it FAILED to address the underlying issues that caused the Crisis in the first place: namely excessive debt and leverage.
In fact, Bernanke has made the financial system even MORE leveraged than it was in 2008. So if the Fed’s moves no longer have an effect on the markets, then it’s time for the REAL Crisis… the Crisis to which 2008 was a warm up.
Why?
Because when the stuff hits the fan this time around, the Fed will be powerless to do anything. Bernanke’s already shot every bullet he’s got. So when he loses control this time around, not only will the market crater, but the belief that has kept the financial system afloat through every Crisis of the last 30 years (namely that the Fed can always save the day) will shatter.
And when that happens it will be the US financial system, NOT just stocks that goes down.

American Revolution 2.0 is coming.
ReplyDeleteLibya has now been declared as open for imperialist Empire contention.
ReplyDeleteThe only difference between Gaddafi and the other middle eastern dictators is that the US could not rely on Gaddafi as ‘our” puppet.
Gaddafi’s principle customer and partner for years was Italy,who care little for Gaddafis politics ,or corruption as long as the oil and gas keep flowing .
By cultivating a populist anti- imperialist , radical nationalist image , Gaddafi was able to run Libya as his own personal kingdom with a little personal ego cult muslim /socialist ideology as populist justification .
With his own ‘princely” sons and tribal relatives as managers and troubleshooters carving out personal fiefs in the control of the military and finance sectors or in the arrangement of corrupt government deals. Gaddafi likes to talk about the importance of tribal blood and inheritance in Libya as one of the pillars for building national independence. Portraying himself as a man of the people, a family story was spread that he was actually born into a Libyan Tribal clan tent. But it appears he was actually adopted into that tribal clan as a child ,on the marriage of his mother to his stepfather sheik and was raised in the fathers, Muslim family ,religion.
In recent years Gaddafi has increasingly been forced to shed his radical skin in order to expand the oil marketing business .to do so he had to come out of isolation by economic blockades and sanctions .
Even the Americans cultivate Gaddafi family business. But Gaddafi has mainly fallen into the British financial sphere . But not yet under complete, full, puppet control.
Son Saif now hobnobs intimately with the international financial elite particularly the British Rotthschild Clusterf..ck elite, the Zionist supporting UK Banksters sector , the Blairs and the like . This is all very understandable given his family history and Saifs marriage to an Israeli actress.
B.P has made some nice new oil access deals. America not so much.
The US wants to get in on the act now too, particularly because of its need to hook oil producing countries back into the pricing of oil in dollars to reinforce the failing dollar hegemony system. And has been kissing up to Gaddafi removing it from its declared status as a “Terrorist” state in order to cut in on the British oil interests.
It was all buddy buddy,much kissy kissy stuff ,for a while .Libyan human rights did not matter one little shit when there is a US buck to be made.
Qaddafi was welcomed with open arms in Washington on April 21, 2009 by Hillary Clinton and the Obama Administration. Upon their meeting, Secretary Clinton publicly said:
“I am very pleased to welcome Minister Gaddafi to the State Department. We deeply value the relationship between the United States and Libya. We have many opportunities to deepen and broaden our cooperation and I am very much looking forward to building on this relationship. So Mr.Minister welcome so much here. “
The urgency of the US to prop up the dollar hegemony system has led to the dropping of the kissy kissy diplomacy stage and now the US demand that Gaddafi must go so a more suitable puppet can be installed.
Gaddafi has suddenly become a "little Hitler" again!
There is no more room now for a semi independent oil country dictator.
Libya has now been declared open for imperialist contention.
And the urgency of the economic crisis in both the UK and US may lead to a US led NATO military intervention on “humanitarian” grounds To divide and rule the country and contol the oil along tribal lines .
The road has been paved by the withdrawal of US and British Citizens.
