Hutch,

What is the difference between what AG is doing with M2 and lowering rates and what Japan did for the last several years ... unsuccessfully I might add?

Seems to be this controlled creation of liquidity will only work for so long ... sooner or later real economic growth must ensue .. i.e., meaning a demand for goods/services etc. This process of taking money from the bond market so that it can flow to the stock market is IMHO a flight to higher risk returns - that may or may not be based on sound economic principals. With Q3 not looking so good and the presently high PE's - I would suggest this economic transfer is a postponement of the inevitable .... that is a falling stock market.

Sooner or later even the "safe" paper instruments are going to be called into question as this process unfolds. Thoughts?
