QE Infinity Will Crash The U.S. Dollar

Americans wanting intervention to weaken the U.S. dollar should be careful what they wish for. The overvalued U.S. dollar is making things worse abroad, but it's actually lessening the pain here. Quantitative Easing (QE) infinity will crash the U.S. dollar on its own once the global dollar liquidity squeeze ends.

Gold Will Skyrocket

Gold is falling because investors are clueless as to what is coming. Their mindset is similar to that of central bankers. They have no idea how bad the consequences of the current monetary and fiscal policy mistakes will be. When they figure it out en masse, gold will skyrocket.

Inflation Is Coming

All the discussion of the current economic decline and whether the stock market has bottomed is missing the point. The damage being done now by Federal Government spending and Federal Reserve money printing to cushion the immediate impact has adverse consequences worse than the Coronavirus. 

The money the Federal Reserve is printing isn't going to have value. It isn't going to buy anything. Prices are going to skyrocket. And in fact, this coronavirus is accelerating that process because it's reducing the supply of goods available to buy.

This Crisis Is Economic, Not Merely Financial

The financial crisis of 2008 was a cake walk compared to this. All that happened in 2008 was real estate prices fell, borrowers defaulted, and lenders lost money. Today global commerce is grading to a halt. Production is shutting down. This crisis is economic, not merely financial.

Game Over!

In 2008 we bailed out the banks and GSE's, as they owned the mortgages. Today it's not just mortgage debtors who can't pay, it's all debtors. It's not just banks that need to be bailed out, but every leveraged business in every industry. Who is left to do the bailing? Game over!

The Russell 2000 Index Is Down 33% From Its High

The Russell 2000 Index, the purest stock play on the U.S. economy, is down 33 percent from its record high set in August of 2018, wiping out all the gains from June of 2016, 3 months before real Donald Trump was elected President. A Presidency that lives by the stock market dies by it as well!
