This will certainly happen in an inflationary environment (typically in the late expansionary phase of the economy). As you correctly pointed out, since companies can partially pass inflation on to its customers, equity is somewhat hurt by inflation. But bonds are clearly certainly harmed by...

Ah yes... a sharpe ratio of "5,963.84".... Timothy is what every what every fund of fund manager dreams about (sarcasm, if you didn't catch it. This sort of sharpe ratio is usually an indication of a fund that takes on some insane amount of embedded leverage; a blow up is guaranteed).

There is a matter of likelihood here. You can conjecture that Bush is behind this as well, but it sure as hell isn't very likely. The problem is, your conjecture is a poor one because it's highly unlikely. It makes zero sense. For it to work, you need a bunch of conspirators who are smart...

First, I'm glad to see that you've changed your tune from insisting that these are real, to, the "bonds have to be fake." But unfortunately, your ability to reason still falls short. To plan a story to influence the t-bonds market? You do realize that not a single t-bond trader or...

Properly nothing. News that "a bunch of fake looking papers turned out to be fake" isn't exactly front line news. Only a small handful of news sources actually tried to make a big deal out of it - and I doubt very much they are in a hurry go back and tell everyone they were wrong

racial slurs.... welcome to the new ET... where blue collar construction workers come to hang out

Blogger stupidity never stops. Central banks DO NOT issue bearer bonds to each other. What would be the point, other than creating a huge security problem? Central banks go through their clearing networks. If anything, they are the least likely candidate for using bearer bonds. There is zero...

Hey Daal, I think this guy thinks we are the same person. You think you and I can combine into a bigger robot like the transformers?

Why are our views the same? You seem to be saying that I'm defending the fed, when I have done no such thing. You are watching me? okay. that's a little creepy.

How is calling out a shitty piece of misinformation defending the fed? But then again, from your other posts I know you are fed-runs-everything conspiracy theorist. So, I really have little to say to you

Oh great - a generic youtube rant. I guess the discussion is over. The bonds must be real.

Both? Really. Can you point out exactly which GAAP requirement the banks have violated? Again, I point out the rules for impairing assets is very complicated, so a general statement about "worthless assets" won't do. Give me an actual FASB number. Of course you can't. And no, the...

Again - are you claiming that they are violating GAAP or simply that you don't agree with how GAAP treats various assets? GAAP standards are fairly rigid about what and when assets can/must be written down. There are also guidance as to when an asset is impaired and as such. So are you...

Is their treatment of these "assets" contrary to GAAP? I have drawn my own conclusion: that it's difficult to fully appreciate the true nature of business from a set of financial statements prepared according to a set of general accounting rules. Phony signifies that they have broken...

Nah. The only assumption I make about you is that you lack basic education and reasoning facilities. In other words - I think you are stupid. But you wouldn't have to be poor. Having fun with in C. R. I'm a sailing man myself. I'll keep a look out for a raving luntic who's got a major problem...

Oh no! You got me! I *am* a member of a secret banking conspiracy that's out to steal your money. We are also watching you reading this from our secret brain implant that we put in the same night our colleagues, the grey aliens, did their anal probe. Anyway, it's been a fun way to waste a...

Is that what you think I said? Your reading comprehension is pretty poor, no? What I (and everyone else) have been saying is that your account was overdrafted and the rules were proper. The phone company, if they did what you said they did, was the problem here and that you should go talk to...

Which is funny, because this whole thread is about how you refuse to understand what "overdraft" means and want to stubbornly stay in your little bubby where "overdraft" means something completely different what everyone else knows.

You wish misery and poverty upon people who disagree with you. I see. You are really nice guy.

I actually feel quite sorry for you. You live in your own personal hell.
