"unless the Fed assumes yield curve control"

I see evidence enough today that algos are controlling every trade... non-random chart patterns are what you are used to seeing now... but, there used to be a reality that most of the inputs were noise... making the patterns there were actually meaningful... and the rest of it just noise.

Easy enough today to see it when some clever former physicist/software engineer... comes up with a new strategy that alters the chart patterns... or someone takes control of the market with a strategy intended to paint a particular pattern to tell investors what they're supposed to do next... Some are patterns you're supposed to see... every "chart school" makes sure you know them. Others you're not supposed to see, much less recognize... even when things are working as intended. Only the worse when someone drops the lug nuts... and man behind the screen makes a brief appearance...

That's all about the stock market... that has a lot less $ in it than the bond market ? So, yeah, I'm sure there's nothing at all like that happening in the bond markets as a matter of routine ? /s

Since the banks have been taken over by traders... every problem nail has the same solution hammer... and that involves trading... not aloof policy guildance... which mis-spelling I have decided should remain.
