The Winship is Palpable

This is a great way to close out the week, with the annihilation of overzealous bears. It made no sense to be short stocks, into what appeared to be a very obvious end to western civilization.

NOTE TO SELF: Western civilization never ends, especially when it seems to be ending.

Markets are higher by 300 and the hallowed halls of Exodus called the rally, yet again. The free trials end tonight, so sign up now to get a 5-day pass to the best market intelligence platform the world has ever known.

Exodus

    The unintentional comedy of the propaganda machine never ceases to amuse:

    Banks could cease to be viable businesses, eliminating a key way that money is channeled from savers to productive investments. [Massive bank failures coming.] Money market mutual funds, widely used in the United States, could well cease to exist. [But first, a 20% haircut would not be unreasonable.] Insurance companies and pension funds could face their own major strains. [For structural reasons, they would be totally fucked.]

    Ms. Yellen noted that the rates on Treasury bills could go negative even in the absence of a policy shift by the Fed, as has happened a few times in the past. [See, she isn’t as dumb as you think.]

    Might new businesses sprout up that allow people to securely store thousands of dollars in bundles of $100 bills, or could people buy physical objects as stores of value that the banks can’t charge a negative interest rate on? [The former are known as treasuries and the latter is called gold.]

    Ironbird, most people are not particularly interested in reading your insults toward me or toward anyone else.

    How about making some constructive comments? Since you complain that I know nothing about markets, apparently you must think you do know something. So, by all means, please share your insights so that everyone on the site may profit from them.
