Is there a bubble on federal reserve conspiracy theorists?

  1. It has been 940 trading days since we have had a 2% down day at the close on SPX This is 6.13 standard deviations from the norm, and the second longest streak since 1942. The odds of this happening without the Fed's intervention is one in 86,579,799.




    Nope... no conspiracy here...:eek:

  4. It's interesting... Watching this board... seeing the realization and opinion swing over the last year or so...

    The understanding that the Fed, the IMF, and fiat is a scam has transformed from obscure conspiracy theory into nearly mainstream (at least among traders).

    You can see the building of markets. The next crop of gold buyers was seeded, then watered, and is about to sprout. This next leg up is going to be BIG.

    And the public is still in the seeding stage.

  5. I wonder how much this becomes a feedback mechanism and how the knowledge of the interaction affects the outcome.

    Perhaps it's all emotional and emotions have a specific rhythm that isn't affected by logic...
