We were talking a few days ago while playing some pick-up hockey. He said the Q.E. "program" in the U.S. is coming to an end, and it could cause a big down in the U.S., which would in turn, cause a world wide down turn. The way he explained it was something like this: If you take large wet logs and try to start a fire with no paper, twigs, etc... just using a book of matches, the only fire you'll ever have is from the matches themselves. Once they are gone, so is your fire. He said Q.E. is the match book. I (being a closet DOOM guy outside of GLP) thought this was quite interesting, but never thought much more about it until this morning when I heard about the futures markets. Food for thought. Maybe, I doubt it.. BUT if the Fed decides it will stop it's money printing it's game over The market is shit today but the price on silver and gold is dropping free fall, What are they trying to hide?

Lady Jane Smith Forum Administrator User ID: 9017502 Germany 02/21/2013 07:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Release of the January Fed minutes indicates the Fed is considering the cessation of QE3 $85B monthly purchase of mortgage backed securities. This has folks pulling out for fear of the actual policy change and is causing a drift up in mortgage rates. All this does is confirm that the whole recovery thing is a manipulated sham. With that said, there will be some backtracking in the markets until Oblabla & company order the creation of more worthless fiat to prop it up a while longer to preserve his "legacy". View this as an opportunity to short the market & add to metal stashes. Fate whispers to the warrior "You cannot withstand the storm" the warrior whispers back "I am the storm" INTJ-A |

That will happen, but not until the lib tards have milked the country for all it is worth. Then when the collapse does happen, they will blame it on the conservatives; who like total dumbasses, will never see it coming.
