Re: The Feds are going to do a bond burnoff. That's essentially what they did in 1994-1995 to rebound the economy. The sharp reversal in interest rates shifted over $1 trillion from savers to borrowers.

This time they'll do a burnoff in mortgages, running an inflation rate that exceeds the lowest mortgage rates. I'm thinking we need a shift of $4 to $5 trillion to regain short-term balance.

There's a chunk of pensioners who are going to get shafted.


I tend to agree, except, wouldn't that crash the dollar and cause inflation to jump?
