Some awfully large numbers you're tossing around. Are you convinced they're accurate?

48% of 7-Yr Fed Notes were bought back after a few days recently. That’s a whirlpool if ever there was one.

Let me make sure I'm following. The federales essentially recalled 48% of an offering in the open market for lack of interest(no pun intended)? THAT is scary if true.

(Link to Denninger’s articled at this link, too, on inherent monetization going on)
