The top chart showing Fed debt certainly illustrates the power of defaulting through inflation. Between 1945 to 1975, the overall Fed debt went up, yet as a percent of current GNP, it collapsed from 120% to under 30%.

In another year or so, we'll be back to 120% of current GNP.

Geeeeee, Wally, then what??

Bart,

Truly terrifying. But, the market ignores the elephant.

Little Bennie is going to crash this market. Sure wish POG would show it has a pair, but this is expected. Still, thinking about putting on miners for a trade. Watching, but just more or less out of the way.

It is pathetic that the market is so programmed to knee-jerk to this clowns games. Nothing has changed, but the dollar is making em nervous.

Long term trend is down, and this will pass.
