An alert Turdite sent me an email last evening where he connected some dots about additional quantitative easing. I've been thinking about it off and on today and I've concluded that it deserves a discussion here.
Before we get started and, as background, please take a few minutes to watch this video:
Sounds kinda like a money printing scheme doesn't it?
-NO 'Dollar of Capital' rule as Our Host would say...
Sounds a tad inflationary doesn't it?
THIS is exactly how the U.S. Banks Counterfeited FRN and ramped up inflation during the housing bubble.
-It is going to be done again with the help of the Chinese.
The Chinese ARE NOT going to 'dump' their Treasuries: the Chinese are going to print Trillions of digital FRN and go on an unprecedented .GOV/FED sponsored Leveraged Domestic Buying Binge!"
This rather interesting idea seems to have been generated by this little-noticed story from last week.

The banks in question are: (from the article)
- China Investment Corp., or CIC, and other Chinese entities were permitted to acquire an 80% stake in New York's Bank of East Asia (U.S.A.) NA. CIC manages a portion of China's huge foreign exchange reserves.
- Separately Wednesday, the Fed also allowed the Agricultural Bank of China Ltd. to establish a branch in New York and the Bank of China Ltd. to have a branch in Chicago.
Now, for those of you unfamiliar with fractional reserve banking, I suggest you watch this:
Whether it's overt or covert QE, growth of the money supply equals growth of debt and vice versa. And, as you can plainly see on this chart, rising debt causes equally rising gold prices.
Put it all together and what do ya do? BTFD and keep stacking.
