[Luno]

Got some aair time today;

Talked about the urgency for congres to think up a plan and that interest won't be raised unless there signs of hyperinflation.

He used the H-word.

Anyone got a take on this? Is This the doom N gloom message in code?

H-yper inflation, okay two words.

Hmmm... Maybe I need to watch this one.

"..interest won't be raised unless there [are] signs of hyperinflation'... as in they want/have inflation already and will make a move once it gets out of control...

by which time it will be out of control...

you f*cking idiot, Ben Bernanke.


Thanks for the laugh!

Ben Bernanke has absolutely no control over the US markets never mind the rest of the world, the only thing he can do is print money and buy up debt, he's the one causing the hyper-inflation but of course he'll never admit it.

My thoughts exactly, all forceful economic practices and every single measuring tool is retroactive in nature. Every measurement we have is on a huge delay (much like technical tools during analysis, which is why a lot of technical analysis doesn't work if that is all you take into consideration).

By the time they acknowledge that it is time to cut the barnyard bullshit, it will be too late and they will have to enact some counter-measures a couple of months down the line.

We're locked in the cycle, so it seems. Except this time around, it's a very very artificial cycle, instead of just a kinda artificial cycle.
