The Fraudulent Fed Has Failed

 

Fed working to address failuresBen Bernanke said the Fed has overhauled regulatory efforts and is focusing more on the stability of the entire financial system. (Washington Post) [ Failures? Not for the frauds on wall street who just love the fed failing accidently on purpose with purposeful failed policies that favor the frauds on wall street only. Fed economists disagree over construction jobs’ lesson for economy Sector the focus of a rare public debate among Fed economists over how to address joblessness. (Washington Post) [ Wow! Well, at $275,000 (stimulus) a pop (job), and then the contraindicated, inflationary, dollar debasing QE’s for the sake of their ‘buds’ on fraudulent wall street, I’d say not ‘lesson for economy’, but rather, lessons on the economy (economics) for them are warranted.

Is Bernanke aggressive enough on jobs? While Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke has already left his mark on economic history not once, but twice, a debate is raging over whether he should become more diligent about reducing unemployment or continue with a more restrained approach. (Washington Post) [ ‘No-recession-helicopter-ben-b.s.-shalom-bernanke’ is a complete and utter failure who should be fired. He has failed all fed mandates (infra), while ‘electioneering/yearing’ a frothing of the markets with QE’s overt and sub rosa with runaway printing/creation of evermore worthless Weimar dollars for the irrationally exuberant wealth effect of frothing the markets for appearances and particularly for the frauds on wall street to ultimately as in last crash, the detriment of the vast majority.

Guest Post: Why Bernanke Has Failed, And Will Continue To Fail Tyler Durden on 01/09/2012 Ben Bernanke's zero-interest rate policy (ZIRP) and command-economy efforts to maintain mispricing of risk, debt and assets are destroying capital and capitalism. No wonder his policies have failed so miserably. Bernanke's policy is to punish capital accumulation and reward leveraged debt expansion. Rather than enforce the market's discipline and transparent pricing of risk, debt and assets, Bernanke has explicitly set out to re-inflate a destructive, massively unproductive credit bubble…,… Is Bernanke Failing His Fed Mission Or Just Delusional? at Forbes Robert Barone [ How ‘bout both! I mean, come on! This catering to fraudulent wall street was a loser ab initio! That so-called ‘wealth effect’ market froth was used previously by senile ‘maestro’ greenspan and failed miserably except for the frauds on wall street who commissioned up and down; and, make no mistake, those computer-programmed high-frequency trading volumes have now been maximized for nation-economy-draining profits for the frauds like never before and have never been higher. The QE and dollar-debasement policies were always predictably inflationary, ultimately hyperinflationary, particularly for stocks; that ‘feel good’ obfuscation that was but in reality good only for the frauds on wall street. No, there is no modern day alchemy that spins worthless paper into gold except fraudulently for the frauds on wall street who’ve literally oftimes done exactly that; ‘cashing out’ for hard currency and gold, precious metals, at everyone else’s expense including main street. ] ..  The standard unemployment rate most often used by the Fed is currently at 9.1%, up 90% since Bernanke started.  The more inclusive (realistic) U6 number stands at 15.8%, up 75% in the same period.  The Civilian Participation Rate has declined 2.87% to 64.2%.This is the lowest level the U.S. has seen since March, 1984.  The decline amounts to 8,946,844 fewer Americans in the labor force.  Had they not dropped out because of a lack of jobs (as now), the “official” unemployment rate would be significantly higher (as now)…    ,   Morgan Stanley On Why The Gig Is Up Tyler Durden on 01/06/2012   "What we have on our hands is a good old fashioned quagmire" is how Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson sets up his surprisingly non-sheep-like perspective on the troubles that US equity investors may be about to face. Expanding on MS's bearish strategic (fundamental) forecast, that we discussed earlier in the week, Wilson combines the 'liquidity vs negative-real-rate' thesis (that the Fed's liquidity is perhaps no longer 'good' for stocks) with his own views on ECRI's weakness (very 2008-like in relation to ECO surprises), household debt deleveraging (more and longer), how much QE3 is already priced in and what will its effect be when it comes (less and less positive in nominal and real terms), investor sentiment (very bullish), long-term technicals (weak breadth), and short-term earnings expectations (deteriorating and weighted to 'weak' financials to end with the pragmatic realist perspective that perhaps 'the gig is up'

What can the Federal Reserve do? With the U.S. economy at risk of a double-dip recession, the central bank lacks tools to do anything. (Washington Post) [ Oh I’d say they’ve done quite enough … wouldn’t you? … In his June 7 speech, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke stated, “the best way for the Federal Reserve to support the fundamental value of the dollar in the medium term is to pursue our dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability, and we will certainly do that.”

 ..  The standard unemployment rate most often used by the Fed is currently at 9.1%, up 90% since Bernanke started.  The more inclusive (realistic) U6 number stands at 15.8%, up 75% in the same period.  The Civilian Participation Rate has declined 2.87% to 64.2%.

This is the lowest level the U.S. has seen since March, 1984.  The decline amounts to 8,946,844 fewer Americans in the labor force.  Had they not dropped out because of a lack of jobs, the “official” unemployment rate would be significantly higher.  While we can debate the meaning of the term maximum employment, it is clear that the jobs data has deteriorated considerably since Bernanke took the reins at the Fed.  ..

In conclusion, it is evident that Ben Bernanke is failing his mandates.  We believe it must come down to one of the following reasons:

1.       Bernanke does not know how to achieve his mandates;

2.       The policy tools employed don’t work;

3.       He does not have the ability to implement policies that would work;

4.       He is not trying to achieve his mandates;

5.       He has goals other than his legal mandates;

6.       He does not look at the data, and believes he is succeeding.
