The Fed Disappointed... The Great Collapse is Here
Submitted by Phoenix Capital Research on 09/22/2011 05:55 -0400
I've been warning for weeks now that the Fed would disappoint with its September meeting. And boy did it.
As I forecast, the Fed didn't announce QE 3. In fact, it didn't announce any new policy of note. Instead it is simply reshuffling its holdings to focus more on the long end of the bond markets.
On top of this, the Fed announced it will only be moving roughly $400 billion of its portfolio around. This is the smallest major intervention the Fed has announced since it began implementing QE in 2009 (QE 1 was $1.25 trillion while QE 2 was $600 billion). Indeed, this move is on par with the Fed's implementation of QE lite which to date has been about $300 billion give or take in scope.
Even more striking, while announcing this disappointing move, the Fed downgraded its view of the economy stating, "there are significant downside risks to the economic outlook."
Previously, any admission of economic deterioration from the Fed resulted in the US Dollar selling off sharply as traders expected additional easing/ printing. This time around, the market senses that the Fed has disappointed and that the Fed's move is largely symbolic more than anything else.
The end result of this: the market is Crashing just as I warned. The S&P 500 has gone from 1,200+ to 1,136, a 6% drop, in the overnight session.
We're just getting started here. Today we got a confirmed SELL on my proprietary Crash indicator. This is the SAME indicator that registered before the 1987 Crash, the Tech Crash, and the 2008 collapse.
It's just triggered again... which means that today's sell off is JUST the beginning of what's coming. Indeed, I fully believe that the Great Collapse, the time when the Fed completely loses control of the markets, has arrived. We're going to be seeing Market Crashes, Bank holidays, riots, food shortages, and more in the coming months.
If you have yet to prepare yourself for what's coming, my Surviving a Crisis Four Times Worse Than 2008 report can show you how to turn the unfolding disaster into a time of gains and profits for any investor.
Within its nine pages I explain precisely how the Second Round of the Crisis will unfold, where it will hit hardest, and the best means of profiting from it (the very investments my clients used to make triple digit returns in 2008).
