Are you denying that this is happening?

Bank of America reported as of September 2017, that central banks have purchased over $2.1T YTD.

You can easily look this up.

I don't think people really understand how markets work. I don't think they look at order books and see how trades are taking place. I don't think they look at volume and question why volatility is so low, despite the market walking up on such low volume.

Do you understand why there isn't any volatility? Because of $2T of LIQUIDITY injections. Other nations have INFLATED the US market through these injections. Don't you think that there will be capital flight when they reduce their balance sheets?

How do you think the market will respond?

Where is the $2T going to come from? I suppose the FED could print it.

If the FED prints it, I am calling it right now. The kids of this generation are going to grow up with no future and they are going to drag the rich people out of their houses and beat them to death or there will be a police state instituted, which is probably more likely.

I have no doubt the FED will print the money. It is the one bank that hasn't gotten involved in purchasing equities to my knowledge.

If that's the case, expect the market to make more unreasonable returns. The only thing that will bring us back to earth is when something in the underlying economy breaks.

That will be oil. You can only hide the truth for so long.

I think I asked a legitimate question that people aren't thinking about.

Where is the $2T going to come from? To sustain the market at these prices, it is necessary for there to be continued liquidity injections.

The tax savings alone for each individual is simply not going to cover the cost.

So there are really two options. They can continue to buy equities which will further inflate the market and exacerbate the problems we'll have in the future or they can stop buying equities, which will cause a crash, but it will be less painful today than tomorrow.

I just don't think the nation is ready for it. We are too divided. I don't know why they are doing this.

My theory is that they will use this next financial crisis as an opportunity to consolidate all the formerly sovereign banking functions into one global entity. It would be a prime opportunity to do that, which would also weaken the legislative power of any country.

That will give fewer people more power and more control. They won't have to worry about things like populism that way.

I don't know though. That's speculation.

How people attribute what I'm saying to me simply being mad, I don't know. I don't get it. I'm posting sources for my information. What else do people want?

I just want to know where the money is going to come from. That's all.
