TH "They must have deflation chills to the bone and be sleeping while the madman prints 24/7." I'm sorta in that camp also. I think over the past 10 years we've seen the inflation everyones talking about. IOW, we had financial inflation in regards to mergers, PE, Hedge funds, WS and etc. Now outside of BB's printing press working OT, we get selected inflation and some selected deflation, but who decides what. GS, thats who. "To be clear, I just don't get it." DITTO!

TH----From my point of view, the banks (friendly to the FED), are buying and waiting a small amount of time and then selling to the FED for a small profit. Its a shell game and a fairly large ponzi scheme---Peace
