Dear Money & Crisis Reader, As I warned two weeks ago, the Fed is going to start buying "everything." AKA "Weimar- Lite." The Fed has faced a choice: Either let debt deflation clear the bad debts from the system (even if it means major corporations and banks failing)… OR start buying "everything" in an effort to prop up the system (even if it induces raging inflation). Going into the weekend, the Fed had already… Cut interest rates from 1.25% to 0.15%. Launched a $1.5 trillion repo program. Launched a $700 billion quantitative easing (QE) program. Begun buying commercial paper debt instruments. Opened the discount window to the eight largest banks in the U.S. Expanded the repo program to $1 trillion per day. Opened dollar swaps with international central banks. Opened credit windows to the money market funds market. Begun buying municipal bonds. And now, the Fed officially crossed the Rubicon. Over the weekend, the Fed announced it would make its QE program "open ended." Meaning it would buy Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities as needed. Put another way, the Fed announced unlimited QE. And to top it off, the Fed ALSO added that it was expanding its QE mandate to buy corporate debt (for the first time in history). The Fed has announced it is going to effectively monetize "everything" – Treasuries, mortgage-backed securities, municipal debt, corporate debt, etc. The only debt assets left are student debt, auto loans, and credit card debt. In simple terms, the Everything Bubble burst… and now the Fed is dealing with it by buying EVERYTHING.

And if it doesn't work, there is nothing left for the Fed to do. Remember, technically the Fed isn't supposed to be able to buy municipal debt or corporate debt. So it is moving FAR beyond its mandate with these actions. Here's the even bigger issue… If this works too well, and with the Fed pumping trillions into the financial system and the federal government launching helicopter money, we begin to see roaring inflation. The key chart to watch is the credit spread on Junk Bonds. While stocks tried to bounce time and again in the last few weeks, credit had continued to break down, warning that there was no bottom in sight. If this chart breaks out to the upside, then we will finally get a bounce. We're more than due for one... Bond yields have begun rising, suggesting the bond market is beginning to discount inflation hitting the financial system. Moreover, the ratio between commodities and stocks has broken out of a multi-year falling wedge, which suggests commodities will be dramatically outperforming stocks going forward. This too is signaling higher inflation is coming. This is telling us that the first round of the crisis, the deflationary collapse, will be ending. But the second round, the INFLATIONARY tidal wave, is only just beginning.
