Federal Reserve: Walking On A Fine Line

This bubble is too big to pop because if the Federal Reserve does pop it, the result will be a financial crisis much worse than 2008. So the Fed must maintain the pretense that is going to raise rates without actually ever doing it. That is the fine line that they are trying to walk.

The Fed Will Only Raise Rates When They Are Forced To

They are never going to raise interest rates at least not until they are forced to. That is what I can`t understand, people have not figured this out yet, that Yellen has no intention of raising interest rates. She did mention that it was possible that they could raise rates but anything is possible. I mean an alien invasion is possible, right?... but its not going to happen. And it is not because of inflation, it is because we have a bubble, there is no legitimate recovery, if there was, they would have raised rates years ago. It is a gigantic bubble and the Federal Reserve is afraid to prick it.

Commodities: When Will They Start Surging Again

When the dollar turns, that is what is going to unleash commodity prices. oil prices will come back up. Other commodity prices that were falling based on the anticipation of rate hikes, when they realize that we are going to get QE4...

If you thought QE1 or 2 did a number on the commodities market, wait till you see QE4. And when those commodities start to surge, they are not just going to surge in dollars, they will surge in all these currencies.
