Do you think that we will see more risk taking by corporations now that the Fed is bailing them all out?
The Fed has printed $1.6 trillion in a matter of 4 weeks for just one of their many, many programs. That has never happened before. Not even close. Many big money managers have now gone all in, calling the bottom. Meanwhile, we are clearly about to face the most shocking economic collapse as millions of Americans have found themselves without a job, and no way to pay their bills. This cannot be turned around by a $1200 check in the mail. Brace for impact.
