However, their analysis of key issues is remarkably similar, at least in outline.Global Inequality And MoreA short essay on the differences...

“Fed’s balance sheets caused inflation, not low rates”

This is a widely held belief and behind a lot of the current bearish positioning… (lol I’d like to ask them then why prices collapsed 40% when they first increased the reserves at Depositories in March 2020)Now they are of course predicting a catastrophic collapse when Fed starts to decrease reserve balances… which btw the Fed haven’t even done yet in June when this is the month they have been saying they are going to decrease assets, excerpting from Mike’s MMT Trader report this week:“Fed...
