Well a massive blizzard that has done a serious number to the Texan grid have quite recently, this is something that shouldn't have ever happened, especially not to Texas. As of now, I cannot help but feel increasingly more scared as to what is in store for the world.
We are looking at potentially the beginning of the end for the dollar.
A dollar index going down indicates inflation. This is evidenced by recent rise in commodity prices.
A bond yield/interest rate increase indicates fear of inflation.
Bond yield usually runs counter to the dollar index, but not recently.
What this means is that increasing yield might be the only thing holding the dollar together.
If the Fed buys up bonds to lower the yield to save the markets, the dollar index will tank.
Fed is trapped.
Premium mediocre American Democracy is like premier "good-enough" democracy.
Sound about right.
China is so going to overtake and leave the dust behind america in the Democracy race.
Already people in China are more positive and more satisfied about their future and their lives.
well, it certainly gets interesting. the yields keep going up, the markets start to tank. pundits blame the "red hot economy". inflation starts to show its teeth, fed maybe forced to taper, and the market may throw another "taper tantrum" to force fed to let the QE continue.......
WHen the dollar no longer increases in value when yields increase, it means QE/drop in yield will tank the dollar.
the weaponized dollar has violated many nations' sovereignty.
