Liquidity = credit right now, so lots of money is an illusion. Like that big limit credit card, get it and go spending, just don't look into that mailbox when the bill comes due. Bernanke said 100 bln. will evaporate in subprime mess. Did he print $100 bln. in the past 3 years? No. I think money evaporation rate is now greater than printing rate, so while the gold bugs are talking about record printing, it is simply not there. We can assume it will appear, but so far it is nowhere to be seen. If foreigners pull our credit line, the game ends. Well, that game sure found a way to extend itself over time, but the housing ATM is off now. What next? Stock ATM? J6P is not in stocks, and has no money cause his house just foreclosed, running away from the Repo Man. Who's gonna drive the consumption? The money ain't leaving an asset to go to another one, it has started to evaporate.
