Trees don't grow to the sky, but the way credit derivatives are growing, it certainly appears that way. A 20 Trillion dollar casino. Yeah, that's REAL value, not notional (the value they control), and it grew from less than a trillion a few years ago. Whoosh, that's half the World economy, if not more. Ben can't print billions and use futures to manipulate that market, like he does with SP500. He has to buy trillions. If he tries to print trillions of losses when the debt crumbles (close now, with yields on the rise and mortgages in default), he will hyperinflate. I don't think he'll agree to print trillions, though. So, my bet that market can and will overpower the Fed.
