 Just incredible how clear things are if you don’t listen to MSM and just look at the money. Just do the math on the debt and “predicting the future” isn’t even hard.

How many people were calling that this would continue for a span (basically a tiny debt cycle) as things didn’t have to get price adjusted, then contracts would run out, quarters would have to be reported, and something would break, and they’d have to aggressively cut interest rates again and start printing? And that it would very likely be before the election.

Who called it? I had this conversation with my contractor after the *first* major interest rate raise a few years ago and said we would go through another mini-cycle and real estate and construction projects would get hurt real bad. And today we literally have our contractor nearly on call because the other work has dried up.

It’s nuts how simple it all is if you just look at the money itself. Everything above it is just noise. nostr:note124d94k6zq2906809h50j57yt5lg3e546vtpuvfp7uphrdl6xmaqq9vq3za 
 So they just needed an excuse to turn back on the money printers… :). Long term I’m confident, short term makes me crazy

 Stack the dip 
 Word 
 I keep pointing out to people that the printing drives the entire market now and they keep not believing. 

Why does everyone gather round for every FOMC meeting then? Why are FOMC meeting days always high volatility days?

The stock market is no longer a predictor of productivity gains, only a window into how much printing is happening.
