So now US banks are inflation hedged across their entire bond portfolios on their balance sheet….for free….whether they were managing that risk or not….

I wonder what “interesting” incentives will pop out of this…🤔🤔😳😳😳😳

I was thinking that too. Every bank will swap the bonds paying lower interest for bills paying higher interest. A wonderful arbitrage. A 25 billion facility will quickly turn into trillions. I almost wish I was a banker with all that free fiat to turn into bitcoin. 😂😜

Banks now shilling to raise rates to infinity. Doesn’t effect them anymore.

So the Fed has your back on deposits to infinity….. just park as much cash as possible with the highest yield possible. 🤡 world continues.

Centrally planned solutions to problems their central planning caused. Why do we need bitcoin again?

Preston always putting things in perspective! This seems like “the thing before the thing” kinda moment… they’ll find the new trick like CDOs and the market will rally and then we get the big crash.

And it’s funded by the Exchange Stabilization Fund which was originally funded with FDR’s ill gotten $20>$35 gold profits. You couldn’t make this shit up if you tried.

shareholders and debt in the capital stack got wiped out. deposits made whole. seems like the right policy

And deflation-hedged. At this point they can’t lose and money isn’t real. Not that it was real before, but it’s less real now. Really not real.

The patient is dead, no amount of epinephrine can bring him back to life, they are just financing alternatives like Bitcoin.

I've been wondering how "you will own nothing and you will be happy" may play out. Perhaps this is part of the attack on the index funds. It does seem like a way to extract value from them.
