The Federal Reserve’s Actions Resulted in a Market Crash and Bank Closures




The 60-40 portfolio had its third worst performance since 1870 last year, and it appears that the Federal Reserve intended for this outcome. It is unusual for the Fed to want certain banks to fail, and it is unclear how they expected institutions such as pension funds and insurance companies to manage their bond portfolios during the fastest and greatest collapse in 30 years, possibly even surpassing the collapse of 1994.

The Federal Reserve’s decision to raise interest rates by half a percentage point has sent shockwaves through the financial markets, leading to a widespread collapse and a surge in bank failures. The move, intended to combat the soaring inflation that has plagued the economy in recent months, has had unintended consequences that have rocked the stability of the financial sector.

The hike in interest rates has led to a significant increase in borrowing costs for businesses and individuals, causing a sharp decline in consumer spending and investment. As a result, stock prices have plummeted, leading to a mass sell-off by investors who are now uncertain about the future of the market. This has further exacerbated the situation as banks have been hit hard by the decline in asset values, leading to a wave of failures across the industry.

The collapse of the market and the surge in bank failures have raised concerns about the stability of the financial system and the broader economy. Many analysts fear that the situation could spiral into a full-blown crisis, with the potential for widespread bankruptcies and a severe recession on the horizon.

The Fed’s decision to raise interest rates has been met with criticism from many quarters, with some arguing that the move was too aggressive and has only served to exacerbate the economic hardship facing many Americans. Critics point to the fact that the central bank’s actions have not only failed to rein in inflation but have also triggered a chain reaction that has destabilized the financial system.

In response to the crisis, the Federal Reserve has signaled that it may consider reversing its decision and lowering interest rates in an effort to provide relief to the struggling economy. However, the damage has already been done, and it remains to be seen whether these measures will be sufficient to stem the tide of economic distress.

In the meantime, policymakers are scrambling to find solutions to the myriad problems facing the financial sector. Efforts are underway to provide support to struggling banks and prevent further collapses, while government agencies are exploring options to shore up the economy and prevent a full-blown crisis.

The collapse of the market and the surge in bank failures serve as a stark reminder of the interconnectedness of the financial system and the far-reaching consequences of policy decisions. As the situation continues to unfold, it is clear that the fallout from the Fed’s move will be felt for some time, and the road to recovery will be long and arduous. It is a sobering reminder of the need for prudence and careful consideration when it comes to decisions that have far-reaching implications for the economy and the broader financial system.

    It's All debt.
    ALL currency is debt, that's the only way the Fed makes it, whether government bondage note,  or private bank loans.

    Bankers have developed four practices that
    are unsustainable and catastrophic.

    If we dont understand the causes of a problem we will address the symptoms or actors, not the causes.

    1st. Large private and Central banks have obtained the Exclusive franchise to create ALL new Currency as Debt, at interest.

    An increasing population needs an increase in currency, but it is ALL created as a debt to the Central Bank, bearing interest.

    This indebts the whole world, every person, every government, in totally unpayable debts,  ( because where can the interest come from) enslaving us all to bankers through personal debt or ever increasing oppressive and unjust taxation, permits, licences, registrations, regulations, rates, duties, fees, fines, levies, surcharges,   adinfinitum, of which an increasing volume goes straight to the debt creators, who created it for free. (At zero cost to themselves.)

    2nd. Because of the first fault, (wherein a Central bank has the Exclusive franchise on ALL money creation,) And they attach interest to it, (which they do not create) they continually create more currency to pay the last round of interest on debts.
    Yes,  inflation,  or rather, devaluation through deliberate currency oversupply, is intentional and destructive to all but the rich. There is virtually no limitation on fiat currency creation.

    Adding to this is fractional reserve banking wherein private banks effectively create massive new Currency volumes, blowing massive bubbles (in housing/CRE/stocks) which devalues everyone's savings, work, 401k & pension, by raising all prices.

    We call this inflation, but it's really devaluation, while shrinkflation further adds to our reduction and desolation.

    The fix ?  The first step is to cancel Central Banks and return to Sound Metalic Money. This will slow the rate of currency creation and make it much more difficult to devalue our wages and savings by currency 'printing.'

    The 2nd step would be to legislate that banks publish their reserve ratio. So if they have 1000 on their books in deposits, and 500 in loans, that's a 50% reserve ratio. When they go under that,  people can pull their money.  This will change banking and we need to change banking. They wont be able to make as much, and that's a good thing.

    We need to put money under the office of national treasury and weights and measures by making it a weight of metal, not an arbitrary number, and state along with private mints would be a good start.

    This will not create inflation like some bankers/economists would have you think. 

    It is not Who creates currency that drives the Constant devaluation of your work & money, it is THE VOLUME per population/ productivity.

    The banks increased the base currency supply by over 65 % since March 2020 & 300% since 2008. This is multiplied as real estate bubbles lever up equity to back increased loans. You can't spend it off planet, and we've had no increase in population or productivity. How can it not devalue our savings, wages and retirement funds by a similar % as it enters the economy ?

    3rd problem. Fiat currency whether paper OR DIGITAL has no intrinsic value, thus it cannot be used as a long term store of value, particularly in an ever expanding fiat system. In fact taxation and the 'legal' currency label attached to fiat creates artificial demand for fiat currency.

    The fix ?

    Return to Silver, Gold, Copper & Nickle currency, designated by weight, not cents/dollars. These will find their own local value.  These can't be printed to oblivion, have intrinsic value, and are a safeguard against bankers counterfeiting. Continue to keep the manufacture of Gold & Silver rounds by private mints & foundries to help keep government mints honest.

    Do not allow bankers and economists of the current system to con you into believing there isn't enough Metalic Money. You mix 1% gold, 99% copper or Nickle and you have Gold backed currency. Same with Silver & Nickle. Mint 10th ounce, 2 10ths, 5 10ths and 1 ounce. Or grams in similar fashion. Never give it a 'value number,' which is a lie. Give it its weight & purity, and let the market decide what it will buy. Call it 'slow money," like 'slow food.' It's slower for sure, but it's 10 times better for you.

    Probably necessary to nationalise mines & pay shareholders out in metals. We are aiming at a more just, more perfect union, and that requires we treat shareholders justly and make them whole while preserving a mining and exploration industry. So gently, thoughtfully, carefully on this one.

    4th. The 'World Bank' and IMF are your friendly international arms of the Federal Reserve, who loan worthless US currency invented at zero cost to enslaved nations of people to purchase necessities, when their own commodities or worthless currency would do just as well. This ensures the indebtedness of nation's simply to survive.

    Correct these 4 Principles and >80 % of a nation's problems would disappear.

    Do not allow your masters the Debt slave creator's to tell you it can't be done. They are not seeking your best interests, but theirs.  It is easily done. 

    Beware. The FED, IMF, WEF wants you totally enslaved with Digital currency. Convert your garbage fiat currency into Gold and Silver or prepare for destruction. Come to think of it, you better prepare for destruction anyway. The bankers motto is : 'Preserve your Capital at all costs.' The bankers are buying Gold. We the people can afford Silver.
