    The Perma-Bull Market

    By Ben Garrison



    Anyone who has seen my cartoons knows I support Trump and his re-election. Biden and Kamala would be a disaster for our country. However, I don’t always agree with the president and before we at GrrrGraphics begin producing a Republican Convention cartoon extravaganza, I thought I would temper it with a bit of criticism.

    When Trump brags about the stock market going up and making new highs, I cringe. This is not a healthy stock market based on logic, earnings, or a healthy economy. The market has disconnected itself from capitalism and a true value discovery.

    What’s really going is a Federal Reserve takeover of our economy. What we’re seeing is a monumental transfer of wealth from the have nots to the haves. It widens the gap between a few money lords and the vast majority of We, The Serfs. Before you say I sound like Bernie Sanders, this isn’t about class warfare, but it is about destroying what’s left of the middle class. It makes it easier for the illuminati and their point man, George Soros, to usher in their tyrannical socialism.

    Leaving no good crisis unused, they’re leveraging the ‘plannedemic’ to help globalist corporations get fabulously wealthier and more powerful while the smaller businesses—the Mom and Pop middle class–are crushed. The Fed has poured in nearly $7 trillion into the stock market this year alone–and while it does help out those with 401ks as Trump says, it mostly helps those at the very top of the pyramid the most. Amazon’s Bezos has raked in countless billions of dollars has his company makes new highs. Apple has a two trillion dollar market cap. Tesla has the largest market cap of any auto company, even if their sales don’t justify it. Elon Musk is favored by the “Green New Deal” illuminati, so he gets propped up while competition gets stamped out.

    The Federal Reserve, in a fascistic manner, gets to funnel money toward favored companies while revenue for small businesses is down 30 percent. The Fed creates money from thin air and keep ‘their’ stock market bull moving up, thus making the fabulously wealthy central bankers and the handful of powerful families at the top who own the Fed gets fabulously wealthier and more powerful. The top 1 percent already owns nearly 40 percent of the stock market. The rest of us get to pay for the bubble through inflation. Have you noticed how expensive food has become? Yet we don’t get to share in the money-glutted stock market. Has the Fed sent you a share of Amazon or Apple? Of course not. Yet we pay for their robbery through the massive creation of debt. It’s always the same—the powerful screw over the powerless.

    We’ve already passed the point of no return with the national debt (now nearing $27 trillion) and every few seconds another $100,000 is added to it.

    Many Americans can’t afford to participate in the stock market bubble. They’re too busy worrying about how to pay their rent while the rich are getting incredibly richer by ill-gotten means. This is something Trump should consider before he brags about new stock market highs.
    Another mark of a tyrant is that he likes foreigners better than citizens, and lives with them and invites them to his table; for the one are enemies, but the Others enter into no rivalry with him. - Aristotle's Politics Book 5 Part 11

    If stocks are in a bubble, that implies that it will pop. Bubbles don't last forever and those "ill gotten" gains will evaporate. The Nasdaq lost 80% of its value when the tech bubble burst.

    There certainly won't be a bull market under Biden.

    The difference between NOW and all previous bubbles is that NOW it takes deliberate change of monetary policy by the Fed,
    or a natural disaster, or pandemic, etc, in order to affect "markets". While previously the so-called "natural" trading pressures
    would force action and reaction, this is not true anymore. It is not true because it's all programmed and run by the algorithms.

    Nothing that you just said is correct.

    The same forces of supply and demand that governed markets in the 1800s are the same ones that affect markets now. Nothing is new and nothing has changed.

    Wrong. When in the past has the Federal Reserve been purchasing government debt, corporate debt, and stocks?

    The Fed Helicopter is dropping money onto Wall Street as fast as it can, and destroying true market discovery of rates and prices. They are creating fake demand.

    The Fed has done QE since the the 1930s. There have been inflations and deflations since before there was a Fed. Stocks can down. I promise you. No super secret algorithms can control market forces. No amount of money printing short of hyperinflation can make stocks always go up.

    Nothing is new. Nothing. Same market that it has always been and always will be. There will be painful multi-year bear market at some point that reminds everyone that valuations matter.

    Wrong again. Grasping at straws and changing the subject.

    Quantitative Easing (QE) - Japan 2001

    Japan has literally been the birthplace of Quantitative Easing (QE). It is here in 2001 that this economic policy was first implemented. The intent of this policy implementation was to ensure that the Japanese crisis which included deflation and continuously falling growth rates was effectively managed and remedied.

    For over a period of 5 years, the Japanese Central Bank i.e. Bank of Japan (BOJ) persistently pumped money into the market. Estimates state that Japan had pumped more money into the market as compared to the United States. This figure is mind numbing given the fact that the US economy is at least three times larger than the Japanese economy.

    However, in retrospect, most experts consider the Japanese experiments with Quantitative Easing (QE) to be a failure. Almost a decade after the fierce implementation of the policy, the Japanese economic situation remains almost the same. However, the Bank of Japan is still persistent and continues to use the policy of Quantitative Easing (QE). Many critics believe that continued use of this policy will ultimately lead to the collapse of the Japanese monetary system.

    Quantitative Easing (QE) 1

    The Federal Reserve i.e. the Central Bank of United States took a leaf out of the book of Bank of Japan and implemented the Quantitative Easing (QE) policy for the first time in the United States in the aftermath of the subprime mortgage crisis i.e. in 2008.

    That was written by an idiot on the internet. Apology accepted.

    The Fed first did QE in 1932.
    https://www.nber.org/papers/w22581#:...month%20period.

    "We examine the first QE program through the lens of an open-market operation under taken by the Federal Reserve in 1932, at the height of the Great Depression. This program entailed large purchases of medium- and long-term securities over a four-month period."


    And the subject is if the market is fundamentally different. Lot of talk like that in 1999 with books like Dow 36000. I promise you this time isn't different. I'll laugh if tomorrow the market starts a selloff on tomorrow's Fed speech which will be ultra dovish.

    And nowhere have I said there won't be a pull-back in the markets. I expect one.
