The bond bubble will pop. It will be epic.

There is a lot of truth in that.

The only thing that could avoid it, maybe avoid it, is an economic collapse.

Hard to know which poison to hope for. Of course a dictatorship could come with either.

At this point, the best we can hope for probably is a bloody nightmare.

Sample of opinion:

The illusion of choice began the moment Kennedy's brains landed in Jackie's lap.

Will you have an allocated seat in the Helicopter when the exit plan is initiated.... useful idiots.

You are only asked for verified papers if you are a bona fide nationale of any country.
All the bankster chosen slaves can flood in, reduce national wages, and commit any crime with impunity because they are politically “useful”

So ratifying the Masstricht Treaty in the first place wasn't a mistake? Governments promised cradle to the grave welfare, injected its euphoria intravenously, and now the smack is too expensive thereby causing withdrawal, and we are ever more surprised that they might vote for anti-austerity politicians?
The Euro doesn't work. If all this bullshit for the last 5 years doesn't prove that, if 50%+ youth unemployment doesn't prove it, if fucking eating horsemeat labeled as beef because beef is too damn expensive doesn't prove it, then, Jesus, let them turn into Somalia. At least then, maybe the U.S. could supply the different factions with arms (made in China, of course) to reduce our own deficit.

And you thought I was jagged?

In fifty years, maybe more who knows, it will be warranted the view when we lost Jack as the first bookend and when the towers went down was the second bookend to the oral argument tommorow mired in self. We have noted the effects of gradualism and in the due course they understand the majority cannot fathom or even keep up with the current dialog just as the fabians envisioned and others have pointed out very clearly. One thing I do know in this life boat that is coming you will be next and the rub is they think everyone else will prevent this.

More evidence of a sudden shortage of safe paper was today's $5.199 billion POMO in the 2017-2018 space, which was covered at a record low 2.54 times (with the previous record QE3-low of 2.67 occurring on February 13 in the 2036-2042 space), showing Primary Dealers are suddenly very leery of handing over their bonds to the Fed.

Adding further mystery to what appears a sudden 10 Year collateral shortage, is that repo rates in the Tuesday-Thursday period have averaged between -2.543% and -2.838%, which have been abnormally low even accounting for the Wednesday UN8 reopening. While "it is not uncommon for the new issue to trade super rich in repo ahead of settlement," specialness has not exceeded -1.00% for current 10Y notes recently, Barclays strategist Joseph Abate said.

As Bloomberg adds, repo specialness is effectively capped at -3.00%, equal to the 3% penalty that since 2009 has been assessed on cash lenders that fail to deliver borrowed securities. Feb-23 10Y, reopened for $13b, did trade at rates below 3.00% this week, presumably “because some desks did not want to be seen failing" though it would have been cheaper to do so, TD strategist Richard Gilhooly said. H/T T

Just as noted before also on what can be marked and they promise now its fixed on the balance sheet. We had the rhetoric that final marks are already
so. I only noted in the press a few had to adjust and report back to benny and the Inkjets. The market did not care today at all. No thanks, I will sit on my other assets who poke holes in ground and actually do things.

12/19/11 low = 1202.37
4/02/12 high = 1422.38
Range = 220.01

11/16/12 low = 1343.35
3/15/13 high = 1563.62
Range = 220.27


3/06/09 low = 666.79
4/26/10 high = 1219.80
Range = 553.01

7/01/10 low = 1010.91
3/15/13 high = 1563.62
Range = 552.71


3/06/09 low to 4/26/10 high = 416 calendar days
7/01/10 low to 3/15/13 high = 988 calendar days

988/416 = 2.375
Close to a fibonacci 2.382.

416 x 2.382 = 991 = Monday, March 18, 2013.

While the periphery breaks down rather slowly at first, the capital cities of the hegemon should collapse suddenly and violently.

Yes 1/3 (a) sold and collected bank warrants so now in cash. We are not seeking many dollar assets for now.
We are still watching cbi for roll over only as a guage and shifting balance sheets since we discussed why
already. We are in a severly active defense mode only view to protect capital.

I will condense it to Justinian to Basil of Rome. Just another generational dynamic encylical nature of human stupidity
in shorter time reference. The Democrats very short thought of Hadrianism who organized the Empire over five years
was missed by a few. These people today appear watered down to the noted effect of polarization as he discussed.
Others take adavantage as we enter another turn calculation. Point being we chart retards within a orbit of
Statist who think they are exempt from the natural economy. IMO
I will be polite and break it down so you can consider your own axis.
(48 (6 X 8 ) intervals X 87.4545 = 4197.818) And for humor we are double digit decade over decade and very humble
to fund education and internalized family banking. Peace

Complexity has probably peaked and the empire will lose its grip by trying to maintain it.

Yes they have went from a lion to a bear to a snake as Amos warned it would and did.
