Peter, it does make sense...because that's exactly what they have been doing this year: tighten to keep their 'inflation-fighting' credentials intact and supply massive liquidity through the back door. what happens if they continue to do this? that's simple: more of the same, until the natural limit of new credit creation is reached. then the mother of all systemic breakdowns will strike.

Peter, of course that question makes sense. The answer is simply - more of the same because that is EXACTLY what the Fed has been doing the last 4-5 months. Continued blowoff in the NDX, tanking bond market and creeping commodities inflation.

And Heinz is correct that until the dollar collapses the Fed will suffer no consequences of its actions. But the real question Heinz is - the dollar collapses against WHAT? The yen? They are printing as fast as we are. The Euro? Gold? Seems to me that oil is maybe the inflationary proxy today, serving the role that gold has in the past but no longer does in light of central bank manipulation. So long as they keep print excess dollars the oil exporting countries will keep raising the price.

Regards, Ken.

<<What happens if the Fed tightens, but continues strong liquidity injections? Does this question even make sense?>>

Peter, gold-eagle.com read what Alan Greenspan had to say about the Fed's role in creating the bubble of the 20's back in the days when he was a believer in austrian economics before he became a tool of the bankers and politicians. mike
