Global demand for dollars INCREASES during the end of a currency regime, because the whole system delevers and all these foreign countries need to pay off their debt. Remember most foreign countries have their debt denominated in dollars.
So they will sell treasuries and US equities in order to get dollars. And most of all their own currencies.
The dollar will scream higher on foreign exchange, while everything else falls. It is a strange world.
Basically, the Fed will have to eventually decide if they want to save the Eurodollar system and by extension, foreign countries from seeing their currencies collapse vs the dollar.
They will have to re-run Plaza Accords (G7 agreement from 1985) to devalue the dollar.
All roads lead to more money printing which = inflation.
Then.... The Fed Stopped Buying MBS 7 days ago. The purpose of MBS purchases was to repress mortgage rates and inflate home prices. That process has already started to reverse over a week ago. TA:DR **October **20th the last MBS trade will settle with The Fed. What happens between now and then? We shall see.
In a dollar endgame, the collapse begins at the periphery and moves to the core.
The first dominoes begin to fall...
Then the stock market is also showing signs of BIG trouble..... the VIX has officially hit 30 again. We’re officially in “large volatility resulting from increased uncertainty, risk, and investor fear”. Looks like it will be a RED OCTOBER in the markets.
At the same time... from the FTX president AMA: They want to "set up a regulated exchange in the US that is able to offer security tokens..."
Tokenized securities are coming. A new stock market with stocks as NFTs. This ends most fraud / loopholes being used in the current system and with virtually no need for gov oversite / regulation besides just the rules / regulations they want programed in. This takes a HUGE amount of power from corrupt institutions.
FTX is working with GameStop and LoopRing (LRC)
Rumor is OCTOBER launch on that.
All this seems to be coming together at the same time.... almost like there was a plan to blow up the old system and replace it with something better.
For those that don't understand NFTs or what tokenized securities / assets means check out this post I made a while back:
The revolution will be tokenized. (Why the MSM trashes NFTs so hard) Game Stop = Game Over!
Lifted from your research (persian_bull):
"The correlation coefficient between central bank quantitative easing and the price of stock indexes is nearly 1...."
That's the most important data point perhaps this century. I mean, fuck. Anyone who knows this and understands what it means understands that it's already too late. We (the global financial system) ARE FUCKED and have no way back. That's it. Without wholesale structural reform of the ENTIRE system, this ends in financial meltdown and Armageddon the likes of which will make 2008 feel like a comfy fart.
The pain we didn't allow our system to take in 2008 has been waiting for us all this time, and growing stronger all along. Because the Corpos and Elites were unwilling to endure the systemic shocks of the past and let capitalism do its ugly work, the meltdown that's coming has ballooned into something SO LARGE that it will wipe away entire continental economies. No nations or sectors can survive it.
Even 2008 wouldn't have been the bloodbath that this is going to be. For sure it would have been one and it WAS ONE for plenty of us. But instead of allowing that same pain to register on the business side, the Washington fuckbags made a lot of noise with their whoopy cushion-like mouths and explained to John Q. Public that this pain is only for you, you see, because it would be TOO PAINFUL FOR US TO ENDURE and that could mean the entire collapse of our banking system, Too Big To Fail.
So John, will you take some more of this pain, a part of the slice meant for us, so we can keep our yachts and summer mansions? We REALLY JUST CAN'T go back to having only two homes, because, well, we're bankers and as bankers we give loans to every kind of business and our whole economy could be affected and we um, we just like our bank and we don't think you want to go through all that trouble to get a new bank. See John, if we fail, then smaller banks will buy our assets at fire sale prices, and when that happens, your assets will go down, and your 401K looks pretty good so.... WILL YOU BUY ALL OUR WORTHLESS SHIT SO WE DON'T HAVE TO EVER TAKE THE LOSS?
And so we did that, allowed our public to take the debt so just ONE sector of the economy would not topple over. The magnitude was inflated back then: they spoke about it the way they SHOULD be speaking about what is coming up today. That's how you know they are scared so shitless as to NOT mention it at all. If you listened closely then, the banking industry and regulator's language mirrored that of a drug addict and a drug dealer.
QE was the heroin they needed to avoid the pain of withdrawal, and the Fed was only too happy to supply it as it had in all previous crises. But they got the order of magnitude wrong, as they so often do. They are greedy, selfish drug addicts you see, who want all of it for themselves. They allowed the general population of our country to SUFFER MIGHTILY THRU WITHDRAWAL while they didn't, due to a belief that TOO MUCH SUPPLY of $ added to the system would hyper inflate it.
What they really did was allow the real economy to lay down and die while the banking sector and markets were revived (by optics alone) in nominal fashion. Normalized yields and volatility measures returned and using their stethoscope in just the right way they could convince investors and companies we'd "returned" to a "new normal."
What actually happened is they let our real growth and expected potential continue to die off, at the price of a one-time MAJOR INJECTION of capital that shocked the system into a kind of zombie life and we've been there ever since.
Nominal income and nominal prices are only optics. The real economy beneath it has been essentially lifeless since 2008. They had 2 correct solutions potentially, and they did neither.
There's only one solution left to help that institution, from the purview of the Fed. Can you guess what it is??
That's right: Quantitative EASING!
I hope I could help to explain some of this to you guys if you're not savvy on economics. I went to college for it for some reason but most of it is common sense. There's a reason that President Trump during the pandemic placed stimulus checks in our hands, employed lawfare and other techniques I mentioned above to keep Americans afloat and spending $. There's a reason we shot out of the pandemic like there was a rocket up our ass right up until Biden took the wheel. Not saying they did ed everything right, the lockdowns destroyed businesses 10x and collapsed market share, propelling an untold amount of public $ into the hands of a few robber barons and created record numbers of new billionaires in a shockingly small amount of time. A lot of it was really fucked for sure, and it was all manufactured. To keep "them" from taking their medicine.
It's like a guy at work who starts cleaning some machine or component on your shift. Then he comes and says Hey man I've got to go to this meeting right now but I'm coming back to finish this! Parts laying around everywhere. You take a bathroom break 2.5 hours later, avoiding the clutter he's left all throughout the hallway, to find him standing in a group of managers and talking. He winks at you and smiles, indicating I'll be back for it! Now it's almost closing time for the day and theres still shit everywhere. He has to start his other responsibilities and can't get back to his project, so it's on you to do both your job AND his. Effectively, he did nothing except create a big fucking mess and then coax you into doing almost the whole job for him, because you want to leave your job with everything done and where things are supposed to be. He will later take credit for cleaning the equipment and get more consideration for his next promotion because of it. And all he had to do was be a fucking idiot and make a mess with good intentions, and not enough time or resources to actually deliver on it.
This is what our financial system governance does to us. They half ass it. You are SUPPOSED TO either do something all the way yourself or just don't do it at all. The government messes around in the market, creating the inefficiency. THEN they burden you the taxpayer with an expensive and time consuming solution that is required to fix it, so you bear the entire load of it and are due the suffering that's originally meant for them! The corporation passes on the problem to you! Either let the market run and leave it alone, OR come in big enough to COMPLETELY solve the problem. They never do either which allows them to take credit for our hard work, so ingeniously solving problem after problem of their own creation.
Growth and destruction are a part of the system. We've delayed the second part so long that the whole thing is going to go under now. Innocents will NOT be spared.
These fucking idiots think they can just switch our system out with another one overnight and that isn't going to work. Someone always has to pay.
I wonder now if QE and assets will hit a -1 delta soon. 🤣
Killer comment! Thank you!
You got it, any time!

Thanks again fren for putting me on to =some good digs!
I personally believe the payers, for what they've done, will be the wealthiest, who are corrupt. That's why PDJT wrote that EO to take their assets. I don't know how it will work but I believe the average American taxpayers will be the ones who are spared. I don't believe PDJT would participate in a plan that removes all wealth the average small business or everyday American has built over their lifetime. That may be naive of me but that's my faith in God who is running this plan.🙏🇺🇸
