The market loves Ben - Fed considering securities purchase

Quote from denner:

Deflation = asset prices re-adjusting to new realities. Meanwhile, the public sector continues to spend and increase salaries while the private sector sucks wind.

So, Kassz, should we destroy our currency, emburden all future generations with untold trillions in debt, so that we can "prevent" asset prices from finding a true equilibrium or that bogeyman "deflation" that it seems a particular group of individuals fear more than death itself.

Ah here we go again. Another person in the "deflation is good for everybody" crowd. Since this is only your second post, I'll assume you haven't read the countless threads and debates about deflation/inflation and their effects on the economy.

If deflation hits the USA hard enough, it will be bankruptcy. You cannot pay back trillions of dollars in debt with deflation present.

Deflation is not a "bogeyman". Deflation is very real, and very dangerous. Read up on the effects of deflation on an economy. You will realize that there is more at work than simply "prices re-adjusting to new realities."

There will be a moment when our entire financial system or farce which it really is blows up in a complete disaster. I dont think any idiots fed idiots think the entire ship can go down, but it can

Have been reading the exact same thing on these boards for years now. When is it coming? Timing is important.

You are the ultimate fade. Bonds down almost 2.5 handles on the day. The rally in shares had nothing to do with QE talk.

Where in my OP did I make a comment that would warrant a fade? I don't have an opinion on market direction - it's a loser's game.

I also never said the Friday rally had anything to do with QE talk.

So please, just because you were short on Friday and got your ass handed to you, doesn't mean you should start with the insults.

Guys like Kassz are too simple minded to fully understand the ramifications. But they are a captive audience as they will cheerlead their own demise. At some point, their generation will be gone and with them the broken ideology that has led us into this abyss.

What am I cheerleading again? I don't predict. I could care less if market goes up or down.

My generation? My ideology? You have no clue what you're talking about. Your third post on these boards was just as terrible as your second.

But what does that have to do with the Fed?

I was long ES from 46 to 72... it's in the ES Journal.

we're recovering... high end consumers are spending, eventually the job situation will get better and we'll be booming... pessimism is greatest at the bottom and economists and all those useful idiots never, ever, ever, get much of anything right... the chronically unemployed ranks will grow, what the heck else can happen? People in the US are getting older and machines have been replacing workers for 4 decades now, every recovery since 1973 has had increasingly more joblessness associated with it...

Bubble ben bernanke knows how to keep an economy propped up, way to go bubble ben, keep bailing out the system because thats the answer to this credit crisis. Keep rates at 0% and keep spending trillions and creating programs for those who cannot afford to stay in their houses. This is fucking pathetic, this is not the answer to fix this crisis and nearly everyone will find this out in years to come when the economy is still completely upside down.

Anyone who thinks keeping rates at 0% and bailing out the system if a complete fool.
