MisterNs magic formula explained
Questions to be asking (or answering if you know!):
- Will China comply and devalue the dollar?
- How much new money will the Fed create with this latest $800B commitment? Is the Treasury going to unwind the supplemental account that's been offsetting the new money created so far? If there will be new money, how inflationary will that be?
- Who's so credit worthy they can sell US Treasury CDS?
