ELOX trying ...
Man thanks for all of that. I suspected with banks filling the gap we would have status quo for a period however I too think we will have a pull back here somewhere. Not saying crash just healthy pullback.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:
LOL!
I don't know if it can be charted. I'm thinking that all this extra cash that banks are receiving from the FED/Treasury, they are parking it at the Fed Repo Facility to avoid the Gov't restrictions have on banks...and the banks are getting paid interest on the parked money (taxpayer dollars at work). Hell, even the bankers were commenting and surprised they were getting some interest payment as they initially thought it would be ZERO. Anyway,...I'm thinking after the FED announces they will begin tapering the mortgaged backed size of asset purchases - that to me translates as the FED is telling the banks, "Time for you banks to start getting back into the mortgage size of this equation because we/FED are exiting".
Should this be the case, it's just more of the same. I believe the FED mortgage side purchases are $120 billion a month. If there's over $1 Trillion parked by the banks, that's at least another 8 months of the banks stepping in and taking the place of the FED. So, to me, that's a no change and that's bullish stocks.
Seeking an expert (austinAG90) opinion.
Moving on,...
I still think a pullback is coming. If Posobieac is correct (I have little faith in that guy) and Biden decides to shut the economy down due to COVID 2.0, well I think that's the pullback signal for a buying opp.
Eventually, there will be a seismic crash in stocks, because the FED in all it's infinite wisdom of being the largest buyer of U.S. debt they sponsor and monetary policy of ZIRP - you know and I know that having your cake and eating too and then continually repeating the process in questionable, but what happens when you run out of cake? To continue the process only 2 things are left to occur that allow it to continue....and both are not pretty..
And here we go,...
Foreign ownership of Treasuries to May 2021 is near a record high.
Foreign holders of U.S. debt equals $7.14 Trillion.
Japan with the most at $1.27 T
China in second place with $1.08 T
The largest buyer of U.S. Treasuries this past year is the FED and they increased their holdings by $981 billion over last year so far.
Trade what's in front of you, right? Stocks never go down.(hysterically laughing, nervously thinking)
Way early on in this COVID stuff I remember reading an article quoting a fellow stating this pandemic would last 3 years, easily. Just one of those things that sticks in the back of your mind after you read/hear/see itRanger222 said:
Nice email just now from Ohio State president -- masks are mandated again on campus for everyone, regardless of vaccine status, even outside. They also are now requiring you to report vaccine status by Friday or else.

Its like they want to create crisis and sustain tension. I guess not enough of them bought the dip.Farmer @ Johnsongrass, TX said:
Yep.
PULLBACK. (Biden shutting down the U.S. would do it)
No crash.
Crash comes much later.
Crash could be another financial crisis by then.

I'm glad Abbot is worried about his primary challengers or he'd probably do the masks again.Ranger222 said:

Just my 2 cents but technically broken. Think this is an earnings play for you now if calls. If long shares then this is about the base/support. Could see a double (maybe triple) bottom here potentially.agdaddy04 said:
