What's gonna happen now?

[foolsgold]

Is someone like Volker going to be appointed to the Fed and jamb on the breaks and tank the economy?
Is the dollar going to be driven off a cliff and revalued at 10 cents?

I would prefer the Volker route because it's familiar, I know what to expect.

The other senario is unfamiliar. Will a WW3 break out. What do the great thinkers on here think?

 

[Casey Jones]

Nope.

A Financialist will be appointed - someone who brings back ZIRP. That, to keep the stawk prices rising (through QE bank buy-ins and corporate buybacks) and real-estate prices up.

You'll see more Debt-Is-Good policies like 50-year mortgages. This is one thing that Trump and the Left are on the same page with - grow the debt, hand out moar, run the printing presses, and look at selected metrics to tell the fools, "Everything is FINE!!"

Nobody has the stomach to tell the public the hard choices ahead. Nor has the Jabbed, befuddled sheeple the ability to understand it.

In ten years, we get Kaiser Klaus' version of "Technocracy" - Surveillance Marxism from a global power-center.

We are going to rip higher through end of month.

I think Kevin Warsh will replace Powell.

Will a WW3 break out.

I hope not.

Life will go on, much as it has for the last eight or ten thousand years.

No (Trump wants rate cuts)

and No. Volker rate shock would bankrupt the country as USA would not be able to roll over existing debt at substantially higher rates.

Is the dollar going to be driven off a cliff ...

Pretty much. Best check the integrity of your seat belts now while you still can.

... The other senario is unfamiliar. Will a WW3 break out. What do the great thinkers on here think?

This is my biggest fear. Seems like lots of nations are pushing the envelope these days. Eventually someone is going to draw the last straw and start the dominos rolling.

 

[Casey Jones]

Life will go on, much as it has for the last eight or ten thousand years.

...with life that is "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short" - to quote Thomas Hobbes.

Invoking the fabled Chinese curse...I think we will indeed find the years ahead, "interesting."

The Swedish kid with no qualifications get angrier.

WW3 happens and we all get nuked.
Harry and Meghan write another "Tell All". So does that runt kid of that soccer player.
All the whales die from some mysterious whale aliment.
Silver goes to $500.
NYC finds out maybe Islamic socialism really wasn't a good idea.

May we live in interesting times.

[Bottom Feeder]

There was an intraday opportunity on AGQ & HYMC. PLG is movong now.

Trump wants lower rates, brings on inflation, which nearly collapses the dollar. We get a Volker anyway later on or face ruin.

D'Onald knows that if rates take off, the default is inevitable. He won't want that to happen on his watch.

 

[Fatrat]

He should let the fed do it's job, but he won't.
