Are we staring down at the great depression of the 21 st century?
Some key Indicators are painting a tell tale sign of another great depression:
Lets take a look at a few charts courtesy yahoo finance and marketwatch.com:
1) Despite all the talk of interest rates going up from a phase out of the FED's #QE policies bond prices have moved up with yields about to head down in a big way:
2) The baltic dry index (#bdi) despite its recent rally is over 95% below its all time peak it hit in 2008. Global shipping woes despite a so called economic recovery!
3) #Gold continues to spiral down and is well over 40% down from its all time high's:
4) The #dollar is becoming king again as the #Euro collapses which could result in the liquidation of carry trades:
5) #Oil has absolutely collapsed down over 50% from highs it hit just a year ago:
These developments taken together with ongoing bear markets in several key asset classes , new lows for the velocity of money and surging margin debt make the great depression (#greatdep) of the 21 st century inevitable.
