PragCap makes an even bolder argument: that QE is DOA already, even before it has been launched. The 10-yr Treasury has only moved 34 bp since the QE2 was first rumored back in early August. Since Bernanke's Jackson Hole speech at the end of August, rates haven't moved! The implication is really nasty: QE2 would inflate commodities, meaning the inputs to production, but not cause inflation in prices, the output. Instead of restarting production, it will force it into margin compression. We also saw this in the Great Depression. Rather than helping get us out of the mess, it will push us in even deeper. yelnick.typepad.com We shall know soon, you really have to wonder if they do another QE what their ultimate goal is? Perhaps they do want to destroy the US...and the dollar. NWO kind of stuff. My inflation/deflation indicator is still sitting on highs showing rampent inflation, you have to wonder why they want more at this point... Unless of course all the banks are insolvent and they have little other choice! West

So much fiat is being pumped into banks and the Dow by the Treasury and the Federal Reserve it is difficult to tell what is truly going on in the stock market. There are, though, certain signs we can look for to gage when a stock bubble implosion could take place. One method is to track the cash holdings of mutual funds. When mutual funds have a lot of cash on hand, it often means they ready to funnel new capital into markets when the time is right. When mutual funds are very low on cash, this might signal that the market is ready to begin an extensive sell off. Currently, mutual fund cash levels have hit an all-time record low: zerohedge.com --- Do not miss this article; best of class for really what is ongoing, and downright scary in the least. West
