Just the machines in action. You can't fight the oiled 600 Trillion dollar market. It rules, everything else is meaningless, but one day it must crash, just as it did last Fall. The other outcome is for the Fed to print 600 Trillion, which is what has been happening on somewhat smaller scale (12 Trillion notional PRIVATE counterparty obligations were assumed by the Fed) so far. I'm sure the boyz will lever 'em up to 600 Quadrillion then, and we'll be all bubbly happy, especially us bugs. While it all goes on, we will be left to wonder - will it crash now or will the bubble go on forever into hyperinflation. My bet is forever, unless the Fed body is cancelled or some other scenario with a similar restriction on the printing press unfolds. Buy a big Mac. Even as it rots, it could be worth trillions later on. You can buy anything, but not everything will soar equally. The preference is to catch the next big bubble. -g-
