Brainstorming Wednesday

1. This is rally weird even at the March lows we never went that low in the Rydex?? Can not get my head around that manipulation scheme. As we make new highs the Rydex makes new lows even some contrarians play a weird game or as we saw for the ISE options at the low insiders take positions.

2. The real reason why the FED wants the interest rates to stay at 0 is that they know how bad the balance cheats of the financial institutions are . The low interest rates do not benefit Mainstreet anyway as banks have even raised interest rates for them. The low rates are a pure carry trade financing instrument so banks can produce profits in order to compensate the losses of their old mistakes. This comes at a high cost for Mainstreet as they can not deliver any meaningful income for their savings - except they join the insane stock market rally. That is the other purpose of this game - completely sponsored by the Obama administration. The explanations below is just bullshiting propaganda as it looks insane to have interests at zero if the 'recession' was really over.
