More incessant jawboning about mythical pending rate hikes. The Keynesian fraudsters at the central banks know that if they tighten for real, it’s Game Over for their speculative asset bubbles & Ponzi markets. They won’t tighten unless/until their oligarch handlers take out massive short bets against the markets, then order their creatures at the ECB, Fed, etc. to hike sharply enough to tank the markets & initiate the next Great Muppet Reaping, a la 2008.
