QOTD: "By suppressing bond yields The Fed has taken a means of faking growth and embedded the cost of that into every portfolio that includes long-dated loans such as mortgages and Treasuries. This cost will remain until those debt instruments mature or are prepaid, and there won't be as many prepayments (in the private sector) as usual since the instruments were issued during a time of intentionally-suppressed rates.

That cost accrues because the discounted price of the instrument is higher than it would otherwise be, and the yield lower. Whether that cost shows up in the form of capital depreciation or lower coupon doesn't matter; it cannot be evaded.

In effect what The Fed has done is provide a temporary "goose" to economic activity totaling several trillion dollars over the last four years but the price of that "goosing" has been distributed to, and embedded in, the portfolios of those who hold these instruments including the bonds held by Social Security and Medicare along with private pension concerns.

You didn't hear "QE" described this way, probably because there would have been an immediate call to indict, prosecute and imprison the entire FOMC for fraudulently manipulating economic reports and statistics were it to have been accurately described but mathematically it is this way.

I've been pointing this out since the beginning of "QE" -- but the fact is that nobody wants to talk about it in detail because as soon as you do you're forced by nothing more-complicated than basic Algebra to admit that all of these machinations are nothing other than a scam intended to mislead both business people and the general public, willfully and intentionally engaged in by Congress, The President and The Fed all acting together." --Karl Denninger
