Since the last FOMC meeting, the short-term interest-rate (STIR) market has adjusted dramatically more hawkish in its outlook for the rest of the year – now pricing-in 11 more rate-hikes (that includes the expectation of 2x 25bps hikes today).

A monetary system that allows the creation of money out of thin air is vulnerable to the fits of credit expansion and credit contraction.

Glenn Youngkin either amended or vetoed, a Senate panel by a 12-3 vote killed a proposal that would have suspended Virginia’s gas tax for three months, dealing a major blow to a significant component in Youngkin’s plan to provide short term tax relief to Virginians struggling with climbing fuel prices…

Under just three of the emergency bailout programs offered by the Fed to Wall Street, units of the megabank JPMorgan Chase tapped over $6 trillion in cumulative (term-adjusted) loans from September 17, 2019 through the first quarter of 2020.

If you’ve been wondering why stocks suddenly exploded higher last month… wonder no more! We were told the Fed ended its Quantitative Easing (QE) on March 9th 2022. That’s a strange claim given that the Fed’s balance sheet has expanded by $55 BILLION since that time. Heck, the Fed just bought ~$25 billion worth of Mortgage Backed-Securities (MBS) last week…
