"There have always been lags between the time
of a policy shift and evidence of that shift in the broader economy. However, in a heavily indebted economy, with
the velocity of money likely falling further, and policy rates close to the
zero bound, the Fed’s current
capabilities are decidedly asymmetric."
To demonstrate, suppose that in the fourth quarter of this
year, unemployment turns significantly higher while the inflation rate
decelerates from its already subdued pace. The downturn that the Fed would be
witnessing in the fourth quarter could be reflecting policy actions all the way
back to the fourth quarter of 2015 when they initiated the current tightening
cycle. This cumulative evidence is reflected in the monetary and credit
aggregates (Charts 1 and 2). This change in economic fortunes might cause the
Fed to accelerate the rate of growth in the monetary base and lower the policy
rate in order to stimulate money and credit growth.
However, the monetary and credit aggregates might not
respond to these first steps until 2019 or even 2020, thus putting the Fed
three years or more out of sync with the needs of the economy, suggest a prolonged period of severe underperformance.

In its initial forecast of calendar Q4 marketable borrowing needs, the Treasury now expects a near
record $501 billion in net marketable debt to be issued from October through
December. This amount will be nearly
equal to the actual marketable debt borrowed in the last 4 quarters, which
amounts to $527 billion.

In what appears to be the next gambit by the U.S. Military-Industrial
Complex (or "deep state" for those so inclined) to force Trump to
"prove" that he did not, in fact, collude or have any ties with
Russia or Vladimir Putin, Pentagon and State Department
officials have devised plans to hit Russia where it hurts the most, and supply
Ukraine with antitank missiles and other weaponry.

US manipulating S-Korea.
The target is not N-K but China. Ch may blow out many US Mil-barracs
According to a report in South Korea's Munhwa
Ilbo newspaper, which cites an unidentified government official, South
Korea's military is preparing a "surgical strike" scenario that could
wipe out North Korean command and missile and nuclear facilities following an
order by SKorea's President Moon Jae-in.

Flash points on US
politics: internal contradict.. Hugh Smith good articles reproduced
As North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un declares
that “The
Entire US Territory Is Now Within Our ICBM Range”, somewhere in the
Pentagon, operational plans to neutralize North Korean nuclear and long-range
missile capabilities are being refined. [[
There is not
evidence on this point ]]
Another option is to
respond immediately with a nuclear strike that neutralizes North Korea’s
ability to launch any more nuclear-armed missiles. [[ Lost sense of ethics n rational view on geo-politics ]]
