Such is the cost of creating growth in a market at a faster rate than the creation of value. I also believe the increasing degrees of market fluctuation are a fabricated scheme to simulate growth where there is none... it is not just corporate profits which reep the rewards, but U.S. GDP itself. The inflow of capital to leveraged instruments held by American Corporations is just another way of politely redistributing global wealth and creating GDP from thin air. The global derivatives market has increased five times over the last five years to present value of $500 trillion. Is it simply a consumer credit bubble or an everything bubble? I've not the faintest idea what the US Fed would cook up to leverage losses from a global derivatives crisis.
Popcorn anyone?
