Bond and Swaps DOOOM

[MalO]

Some threads about what's going on:






^That last one is a doozy.

Basically the bank of international settlements (BIS) had warned the international community about this 80 trillion dollar debt in swaps that they are worred the banks might not be able to pay back.

The CFTC stopped reporting swaps back in January 2021 so we haven't really known how bad it was until the BIS just spoke up about it. Apparently it's been getting bad for some time, and especially so over the last 2 years.

A good portion of those swaps are held in pension funds.

More bad news. Apparently the Federal Reserve and FDIC want banks to start selling more bonds to retail traders. The reason? If a bank collapses, the Fed doesn't have to bail out the bond holder if someone bought a bond from the bank. The bond just goes *poof*. However if the bond is still held by the bank, then the Fed has to come up with the cash to bail out the bank and that bond is still on their records and has to be dealt with. Basically the Fed is conspiring with the banks to find bag holders.

Guess who also holds lots of bonds? Pension funds.

Now can you guess who is going to be the bag holder for the next collapse?

All I can tell you is this little retail trader isn't going to be touching swaps or bonds.

The banks and regulatory agencies (including the Fed) have manipulated the economy to run on debt for years. The house of cards is about to collapse so they are stuffing as much of the debt as they can into the pension system.

When everything blows up, they all point at the pension system as "causing" the crash.

A good watch:


They mention the BIS again. They're talking about derivatives in this one, but the biggest take-away is that all of this debt is OFF THE BOOKS.

It's all unreported.

The Swaps debt. The Bond debt. The derivatives debt.

It's all shadow banking. Only insiders know how bad it is. How much debt is there in the system?

Are all of our banks bankrupt?

Bank run?

 

[MalO]

Bank run?

That's a possibility.

In the next decade or so as boomers die and transfer wealth down to descendants this will take place in order to wipe out what is left of middle class.

We’ve heard this story for decades and we never see anything in reality to support it.

It’s starting to remind of the antivaxxers. Just wait a few more weeks and people will start dying from the “clot shots”
