Mike:

Basically, I agree. I suspect that a Volker would have acted and just run right through any opposition, or stuffed a cigar butt in the eye of anyone who got in the way, but A.G. is not Volker. Also, I don't know how the other forms of "money-printing" would have responded.

Anyway, it doesn't matter, as we are all funnelling towards the meat grinder and we don't want to be holding hands with those who are long. I suspect that as frustrating as this extended bull market has been, bears, and/or members of this thread will endure the slings and arrows of the follow-on depression in better shape than the lambs.

Best, Earlie

>>. Ludwig von Mises said " there is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom expansion brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as the result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved" from " Human action' p. 576<<

Is the date on that writing BC? -g-
