Very good videos for those who would like to understand FED backed FIAT monetary system in play. We will advise to start with another video on Bonds and QE, which will explain very vividly why every investor should care and where from we are making our conclusions on the Big Picture.

"Very well done video with clear explanation of the Treasuries and QE - if it is still too heavy and you need some annotation, just watch another video here, you will have fun! But back to business and today it was really busy in the Treasuries corner:
Treasuries are getting toasted today and yields are rising all across the curve signalling higher rates, there is no buyers any more at these prices apart from FED - Treasury Bubble is bursting right before our eyes now. Why it is important - please revisit the our article posted just few days ago.
The art of modern economics turns into the pure magic now: how to make it enough for everybody, when there is not enough left.
Apparently most people do not understand how the federal reserve works. They set a target rate lets say 1% for short term interest rates. If the market wants to push the rate up to 1.25% then the fed buys back bonds to push the rates back down to 1%. If on the other hand the market wants to push rates down to .5% the fed would sell bonds to push the rate back up to 1%. The fed has done this for years so the comment "this just monetary policy" is correct. What is different is the fed is trying to play with longer-term rates and is publicly discussing what they want to do rather than just doing it.
