herbijudlestoids:
mircea_popescu: well he doesnt really view the "fighting the fed" angle as valid, he doesnt believe QE has any proven mechanism for higher prices and shows pretty convincing data on that front. his view is the rally since 2009 is entirely attributable to the FASB mark to unicorn rules
herbijudlestoids:
mircea_popescu: it turns out in hindsight that their method would have worked perfectly but he wanted to be sure
herbijudlestoids:
mircea_popescu: basically in 2009 he mandated that they stress test their method on pre WW2 depression era data to validate it, and consequently missed the bottom. by the time he was satisfied the market had returned to overbought/overvalued/overbullish/rising yields state
nubbins`:
mircea_popescu, there's no such thing as a hassle here
the20year: How is romania right now in terms of snowfall
mircea_popescu?
herbijudlestoids:
mircea_popescu: he had one issue in 2009 when he was insisting to stress test their method against depression era data, so he missed that bottom in trade but did call it
herbijudlestoids:
mircea_popescu: called both the 2000 and 2007 top and both 2003 and 2009 bottom (altho he lost out on the 2009 bottom)
nubbins`:
mircea_popescu, you have 2% AND 2.5% milk?
