Federal Reserve Statistical Release is now omitting data! February 7, 2008 data does not include the prior week???????

Hmmm.

They seem to post data for new dates every 2 releases, which is weird why do they bother to make another release when it's just the same dates? Maybe it's a revision?

for more info.

Boooooooya!

This definitely looks like it updates WEEKLY, and that last week's data IS omitted.

Great catch, Mister Greenspan.

Oh yeah, and I almost forgot to add AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

Here is a great read: This is some seriously deep shit that should have everyone screaming and kicking. The Central Bank is BROKE!

Another hint about this pending crisis is when you do a 'Google News' search on 'federal reserve non borrowed reserves' there is not a single result. There is literally a complete MSM 'blackout' about this. Not only is the fact that last week they were in the negative, now you have nothing about the omitted data.

I took a mozilla photo of the link you put up showing the red ink...

Looks like the Jew Boys gonna be joinin' us in da' PO House!!!!!

It's obviously every 2 weeks

I can only think of one word.... AMERO. The dollar is going .50 baby! BUY GOLD NOW! THE FEDS HAVE NO GOLD AND NO RESERVES. THEY WILL PRINT FUNNY MONEY AND ITS HYPERINFLATION!

What does the "Term Auction credit, NSA" column mean ?
Is that where they pumped the economy to keep her afloat ?

the banks have -3 billion dollars in NEGATIVE fractional assets.

Meaning they are IN DEBT and have no more MONEY to trade, lend or give to old Mrs Applebee, who wanted to take out "just $11.28" (IAWL)from the Bedford Falls Savings and Loan- can the FED stop the collapse of the banks being sucked down the black hole?

Will Mr Potter finally own all of Bedford Falls in the end?
stay tuned

LOL Thanks! NOW I get it!

What _I think_ they are doing is auctioning Treasury notes.
They offer $50 billion of notes at a very low interest rate and then bid (auction) up the interest rate on the note to see when some bank will bite and lend them money by purchasing a note.

At some point the banks decide the interest rate Fed is offering is high enough that they want to invest in it and they buy the note.

Think of Fed as a homebuyer in an auction house full of mortgage brokers offering to sign a home loan for first 2.0%, then when that fails, 2.1%, and so on. Eventually one of the brokers puts up his hand. Currently the banks have no money to lend because of the securitisation disaster, so interest rates on the notes have to be high and Fed must print lots of money each month to make payments. So yes, pumping the economy by pouring money into banks, off into the future. Banks are getting a nice ROI for investing in .. nothing.

They post an anouncement( Hit the link) that states that this does not affect the reserves available to the banking funds. And that is an arithmatic fact that we SIMPLY have more money borrowed than in reserve. Hum...

"...But the fact that total reserves also dropped during this period also lends credence to the idea that this dramatic drop in non-borrowed reserves is decidely Not a Good Thing."

Yeah, how is Andrea Mitchell?

Fed does not make money



Banks are still offering / pushing loans




Booyah !

The Federal Reserve Banks do make money. As our central bank they charge banks for currency delivery, transfer, as well as interest on certain loans to banks. They just don't work with the public, banks only.

As for the Fed being out of reserves, by definition they can never be out of reserves. As the central bank of the United States the Fed is the institution which tells the BEP and Mint to make them money, the only setback is if they have them make more money than is being taken out of the system (via shredding, lost bills, and people saving their money at home instead of in a bank) then you get inflation. The Fed try to manage how much money it puts into the system and offset its negative affects by simultaneously lowering the interest rate when they put large sums of cash into the economy.

you have to give out loans to get any money, the whole system is designed to fail

banks loan from the fed, and now the feds broke..no more bail outs...here is the tipping point

BS. Its updated weekly but the data is based on 2 week increments (for recent data). The recent data is always listed as preliminary. This doesn't change the fact that the data is scary as hell. However, there is no lack of publishing.

-at

This is EXACTLY WHAT THIS MEANS. I saw the negative reserves last week... first time ever that I remember. Now they're not publishing this negative balance?

WTF???

We are imploding here and MSM is in la-la land about it.

WTF???

Buy GOLD NOW people or you will soon not be able to buy gold at all because it will be thousands of dollars per ounce.
