Mike Shedlock on Mark-to-Model and SOPA's War on the Financial Blogosphere

The Federal Reserve has more than tripled the size of its balance sheet since the financial crisis, printing money in order to do it. Whose decision was that? Not yours, unless you're one of the handful of member soy the federal open market committee (FOMC). Next week they meet — some are predicting more quantitative easing (QE) may be on the menu. But what has all this money printing really amounted to? After all, the extent to which base money created by the Federal Reserve is actually seeping into the broader monetary aggregates is rather disappointing. Much of this money has ended right back at the federal reserve in the form of excess reserves, earning a pathetically small amount of interest in return for the safety of bid daddy's deposit account. We have seen the same thing in europe with LTRO funded money going right back to the ECB and swelling those deposits above 500 billion euros. So, is this what happenes when banks refuse to lend? Is this what a private sector, balance sheet recession looks like? Well, we speak to Mike "Mish" Shedlock for answers to this. He is an advisor to Sitka Pacific Capital and author of the very popular blog, globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com. And speaking of bailouts, the mainstream media is looking to cash in on one with SOPA and PIPA.

    @007HubbaBubba haha funny. Unfortunately, we don’t have anyone that can fill in for lauren, so I will just have to hold the fort until she is gone, but hopefully she won’t leave us for some Davos oligarch!

  2. RTProducer says:

    @MsTamsinator that’s because we had to go to break. I noticed that when watching the show. It did look very suspicious! I promise it wasn’t. We talk about the bubble in China. It’s a function of the global monetary system, we just don’t feel like we need to cover it in and of itself.

    @RTProducer Awesome, great to hear, Demetri. If you’re not having fun, you’re not doing it right. Keep up the great work.

    I carve out 28 minutes every day to watch. Capital Account and the Keiser Report are the best financial news shows out there.

  4. RTProducer says:

    @1998awest thanks! I love Max’s show as well. I’ve been following him on TaM since before the Oracle on BBC. He’s a really nice guy too, and exceptionally creative and bright. Glad that we share some of the same audience.

    Jew & Obama’s assasination :

    1. Andrew Adler is the owner of Atlanta Jewish Times.

    2. He proposed that the Israel’s government should consider killing President Obama for not protecting Israel. The proposal was made in the Atlanta Jewish Times newspaper.

    3. This is treason but he had apologized

    4. He’s a Jew

    Refer :

    Huffington Post dated January 21, 2012.

    Titled : ” Andrew Adler, ‘Atlanta Jewish Times’ Publisher, Apologizes For Obama Assassination Comments”.

    To Europeans,

    Once the Euro break up, the Jewish bankers will be on the run. Hunt them & don’t let them run away. Arrest the Jews around you.

  7. takwira says:

    Lauren is awesome smart.

  8. 007HubbaBubba says:

    @RTProducer …Hopefully! She is a strong willed woman and I believe she likes her Job here on RT to much just to go run amuk with some Davos. Maybe a few days on his Yacht, and then she would be bored and be ready to come back. You mean you don’t have any hot sisters or girlfriends that can do arithmetic in their head? Like Lauren does? and speak at the same time?

  9. Stevie68000 says:

    Jewish bankers are commiting economic Holocaust against Europeans.

  10. Stevie68000 says:

    Jew & MF Global :

    1. MF Global’s 1.2 billions customer’s money are with George Soros, a Jew

    2. MF Global’s brancruptcy is under sub-chapter 3 of chapter 7 of Bankruptcy Act.

    3. Trail of money : MF Global -> Goldman Sachs -> George Soros

  11. ltmikepowell says:

    @Steve2323ZX And it’s currently devaluing.

  12. ltmikepowell says:

    @waldentree When the time that USD come just PART of the oil currency, be prepare for USD to be devaluation. And in worse case scenario, when bond investors lose their trust on USD’s future and dump USD in the process, expect inflation or even hyperinflation to come.

    Normalcy bias kills, beware.

  13. Stevie68000 says:

    Jew & Newt Gingrich :

    1. Newt’s campaign financed by Sheldon Adelson, Jew.

    2. Adelson said ” The uniform that I wore in the military, unfortunately, was not an Israeli uniform. It was an American uniform “.

    Reference :

    3. MSNBC reporting by Michael Ishikoff.

    4. Google – MSNBC Ishikoff Adelson.
