Fifty Shades of Nay; Rate Hike Reluctance

Part 4 to the Preface; The Fate of the Wait While the Cost is Lost

Is America’s mindset becoming more apt and inclined to be ok with producing weaklings …weaklings who may become still more fearful of making sacrifices than this generation is in all of its hope for change?
Fine kettle of fish!

Part 1 to The Preface; The Fate of the Wait is in The Rate While The Cost is Lost

The reason why I am prefacing and planning to re-post my September 16th, 2011’s original post is because, I believe today …it has become more pertinent today than ever before.

After the French Presidential Election, I am more convinced than ever Americans are being strung along …day after day …more than merely paying the costs to just tote the note …those service costs associated with America’s Public Debt.

Last year, I attempted to characterize this in other terms by referring to this cost in a way which explains the service costs called the “Debt Load” as …and in terms of “The Fate of the Rate …” as being actually “…the Cost of the Lost.”

The Fate comprises the lost factors of time and money in various unforeseen or unnoticed dimensions with respect to the added dynamics of various depths of rates whose limits are limited by finite time constructs.

Enough said for the time being; the Treasury Department holds a periodic recurring series of Treasury sales whose calendar period repeats over and over nearly every two months …just like clock work …come rain or shine …regardless of supply and whoever shows up to participate in these garage-sale-like auctions.

Aside from organic market dynamics, as deemed necessary, QE1 and QE-2 has filled the vacuum in the event and at the ever increasing times of waning participation …I.E.; a lack of demand …as if to beg the question; what if they gave an auction and no one showed?

Geithner, Tripping Out in Disney Land

In my humble opinion, Merkel and Germany should show Timothy Geithner the SOFA and offer him an early flight home.
After all, he has his hands full without needing to escape reality.
Isn’t Disney Land enough of a Fantasy?
Let’s get real …as in agreeing to equally embrace the necessary disciplinary measures of austerity.

After all, on this trip …there are no more short cuts to tune in …drop out …and turn on to any more.

Is Doing Nothing the New Vogue?

What if they gave a garage sale and no one showed?

Recently, one of my friends complained of the lack of progress black plaguing the economy, rocking the equity markets with volatility and shaking consumer confidence going into the holiday seasons.

Lisa Shalett, a member of Merrill Lynch’s Investment Officer Team wrote in the November 29th, 2011 issue of CIO Reports VIEW; ” …Markets are inherently impatient and abhor a lack of clarity and certainty.”

My reply to my friend was to ask; “Do you mean all the uncertainty that has come out of Washington since the Tea Party came to town to rescue Free Market Capitalism from the liberal socialist’s agenda which seemingly has been more than bent on tearing apart just about every one of this country’s institutions …one and all?”
