"And M1 has been going up hugely as compared to M2"

Can you cite a source for that? I find it fascinating if so.

Not a challenge, just a request to be edified:)

My source is none other than the Fed and their own stats.

Here is a link: http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h6/hist/h6hist1.pdf

Take a look at the relative rate of increase of M1 over M2 since say Jan 2009. I look at the unadjusted numbers.

So where oh where is all that currency going? I’ll tell you my theory, but I’d like to hear your theory first.

Fastest place to find this sort of info is FRED, the Federal Reserve database.
