Did you see the big drop in bond yields today.

Money is going to get even easier except for subprime.

But that may no longer be enough to keep stocks levitated.


That was a move to quality. As they sold stocks, they had to put the money someplace while they decide what to do next.

'Money is going to get even easier except for subprime'

That might be true..investments especially in real estate look a whole lot better when asset values drop 15-25% along with a 100 basis point drop in long term interest rates

But only time will tell how much is flight to quality and whether a nasty recession is on the horizon..

After today its a given rates will drop and so gold is the place to be imo. Isn't it funny how some US politicians have been demanding China raise rates? I don't even know if they did raise them today but one thing is clear that the talk of it has to be one of the factors in todays sell off on the Chinese exchange. I always believed that if the Chinese let the Yuan float it would drop the US economy like a stone from runaway price inflation due to higher cost of imports from China. The US should be careful what they wish for when it comes to protectionism.
