Markets Party Like the 1920's with an Economy of the 1930's

MARKETS PARTY LIKE THE 1920’s WITH THE ECONOMY OF THE 1930’s. Be aware of the potential for an incoming volatility shock. Printing money (stimulus) provides no lasting economy, rather deepens the incoming financial crisis and need for financial reset. ProMarket Wire, Calgary

Another big dive in gold tonite . . . .

Bulls call this a freak-of-nature. Economic reality suggest broad-based risk of incoming deflationary pressures on global commodity prices (IMO). Credit markets are strained, not to mention derivatives.

A broad-based break in commodities could break-the-grip on central bank equity manipulation. Current market strain suggests potential pick-up in price volatility straight ahead . . . .

Lots of talk about big inflationary pressures coming ahead but some pretty smart minds are saying it going be deflationary. They make some very good points when it comes to labour force participation rates and demographics being deflationary.

Markets are always right.

Can you tell us what wheat , canola, flax is going to do with certainty. ?

Money supply is growing completely exponential, faster than any period in modern history. The chickens always come home to roost. However exponential growth in money supply is only part of the price inflation. The catalysts are the lockdowns, covid fear, poor productivity, loss of faith in governments and supply chain problems. When a mountain of fiat tries to secure an ever dwindling supply of commodities, history has taught us that things can spiral out of control very quickly. Infact massive monetary stimulus isn't even a requirement, it's just fuel on the fire. The rapid rise in commodity prices like grains for example are a canary in the coal mine imo.

However don't expect asset inflation in housing and the general equities market to occur with rapid price inflation in commodities. They tend to be negatively correlated. Lots of confusion stems from the large disconnect btw equity markets, faulty cpi calculations and of course Japanification. Markets like nature are not linear but cyclical and after a 10 year bear market in commodities the bull is raging.

A black swan event could throw normal metrics and time lines out the window. For example there is talk of mandatory vaccinations for the trucking industry in the US when only 50% are said to be willing to take it. Could you imagine the inflationary shock to the system if 50% of the truckers quit tomorrow? After all the demand for the necessities of life are inelastic and remain relatively constant. Lots of black swans flying around. Let's pray they don't roost, the supply side is already strained.

Apparently stock market trading volumes have exploded as investors appear 'going-for-broke' with cheap money and the U.S. Federal Reserve having-their-back with the printing presses.

But now, more and more analyst warnings of a possible incoming equity 'bubble-pop' event soon (in 2021).

Economics and market fundamentals no longer have anything to do with price direction. Equities continue to be a mix of irresponsible gov't debt, central bank desperation and investor greed (IMO). Believe we are witnessing history right now . . . .

It was rather rich listening to the talking heads demeaning the WSB/robinhood crowd treating the current stock market like a video game...

fine... It's not a video game, its a (V)ideo (L)ottery (T)erminal.

Beyond fundamentals.
Beyond broken.
Beyond rationality.

Much like WSB's mantra, but slightly twisted, "the Market can remain retarded, far longer than a rational individual can remain solvent."

I missed out on one of the greatest booms of modern stock market history... (not that I had piss all to throw at it.) But I have to wonder how many other individuals have finally thrown in the towel and said F U C K it! If you cant wait em out, you might as well join em.

Yes a mountain of paper derivatives on a finite planet. If you think the purchasing power of paper is going to go up I think you may be in for serious disappointment.
