Fed REPO Pumping Cash Absolute Panic To Save Markets! 401k’s and Pensions At Risk

Insane levels of intervention. It’s as if the Fed and other central banks have no desire to leave any value in currency whatsoever. Truthfully, there’s no point in time in which a fiat currency survives. It must go to its intrinsic value. I would argue that the ink-filled paper is quite worthless for the most part. At least I could draw on a blank sheet. What will you do with all of your fiat currency? Heat your home? Have a bonfire? Use as bathroom tissue?

The Federal Reserve has kept its cool while things have been melting down. The coverage of the Fed Repo madness has been largely suppressed to keep investors calm. We’ve seen this so many times before though. Just take the many examples all throughout the Financial Crisis. Don’t worry, there’s ample liquidity, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers are fine. Don’t worry about AIG’s exposure either. All good for subprime mortgages too! Hey, no need to dwell on the past, right? I mean, everything is totally fine now, isn’t it?
