Now if you want to talk about gullible and naive, that is what I call those who thought the US should emulate Europe with their massive welfare system.
Euro zone inflation continued to fall in August, with consumer prices rising just 0.3% Y/Y, well below the ECB's target of just below 2%. The new figures released by Eurostat boost expectations that the central bank will announce further stimulus measures, and will likely result in lively discussion at the ECB's Sept. 4 policy meeting next week.
I shared "bond timer of the Year" at Timer Digest last year for being bearish on bonds.... but this year I sure missed the bullish move for bonds as money seems to be pouring out of Europe into US bonds seeking better yield here as those economies try to not collapse.

Notice how German BMW built a huge plant in NC after it became very company friendly... The US could suck a ton of high paying jobs out of crashing Europe and Bubble China if we would eliminate or greatly reduce the corporate tax while eliminating most all deductions for the very wealthy CEOs so they pay the same taxes on income over $1M be it be from carried interest, stock options, stock gains in companies they own, or straight salary.
