Thirteenth Eve

By -

Well, folks, I pretty much said all I needed to say in my video (see prior post), so I’ll leave you with the latest charts from the weekly “Fed Spread” data. This is particularly appropriate since I just sent a cargo ship full of cash to Washington D.C. and Sacramento for taxes (in exchange for……….let’s see……….ah, here it is, the right not to be in prison; thanks, fellers!)

Yellen’s free cash to her banking friends is at another record high (BTFP program)

Quantitative tightening keeps tightening

Reverse repo continues to plunge in popularity

Yellen’s checkbook is plenty fat, thanks to $34 trillion in debt she’s taken on

All of which leads us to an S&P 500 that is, appropriately, 500 points too high!
