    Subject: [RT] The Fed Announces it Will 
    Hide M-3 To Keep You From Knowing What?
    
    Some interesting Sunday 
    reading from the 'From the Wilderness" website. The site has an email list 
    that can be? subscribed to free at?http://www.fromthewilderness.com. 
    I have no relationship to them. Just a periodic reader.

    [Safehaven is a market analysis and investment 
    website. Not having used their services, this reporter cannot comment on 
    their performance (which is the subject of this article?s second half, 
    available at http://safehaven.com/article-4108.htm). But this excerpt, like most of their analyses, 
    usefully describes the activities of the Plunge Protection Team. Like 
    Catherine Austin Fitts, Chris Sanders, and James Turk, these people help 
    explain that the financial markets are rigged, and the M-3 money supply is a 
    key tool in that practice. A good explanation of M-3 appears at

    The Fed Announces it Will Hide M-3 To Keep You

    The 
    Federal 
    Reserve announced on 
    November 10th, without explanation, and I quote, "On March 23, 2006, the Board of Governors of 
    the Federal Reserve System will cease the publication of the M-3 monetary 
    aggregate. It will also cease publishing the following components: 
    large-denomination time deposits, RPs, and Eurodollars. The Board will 
    continue to publish institutional money market mutual funds as a memorandum 
    item on this release."
    Why? It's simple, really. So that the Plunge 
    Protection Team can hide its market manipulative, equity buying 
    activities. You see, one of 
    the key differences between M-2 (which it appears they will report) and M-3, 
    is repurchase agreements. This is perhaps the most obvious reporting item 
    where PPT market buying transactions show up. If they no longer report this 
    item, folks like us who monitor the growth of M-3 for clues as to when the 
    PPT is likely to buy the market, will have a harder time reporting that fact 
    before, or even as, the PPT buys. Investors will be left more in the dark as 
    to any secret rigging of the stock market. Why now? Apparently the Federal Reserve (a key 
    member of the Working Group, a.k.a. Plunge Protection Team) sees a coming 
    need to buy - or facilitate the buying - of markets, including the equity 
    market, incognito. 
    Apparently, they don't want investors knowing they are the ones doing the 
    buying, keeping prices up, or pushing them higher.
    We 
    have continuously demonstrated the high correlation between growth in M-3 
    and a rising stock market. We have also demonstrated that when M-3 either 
    declines or stays the same, the stock market is prone to decline. The Fed 
    knows its hypocritical hyperinflationary expansion of the money supply 
    recently has been publicized by Fed watchers, and that 12 percent annualized 
    growth in M-3 during a time when the Fed is raising short-term interest 
    rates aggressively, and jawboning a determination to stop inflation, is 
    nothing short of illogical, bizarre Fed behavior. The reason for the 
    dichotomy is quite simple. The Fed can electronically print money and 
    hand it over to the PPT to buy this stock market. That has to be why all the 
    extra M-3 growth over the past several months.
    When we presented the Hindenburg Omen 
    analysis several weeks 
    ago, we warned that the PPT would likely buy this market to stop the 
    higher-than-normal probability that the market could crash. 
    Why did we warn that 
    the PPT would likely buy this market, and stop any potential crash? Because 
    of the M-3 numbers. We 
    could see there was too much money being created. We know that the way money 
    gets into the economy is by the Fed buying securities. Inflation is too much 
    money (M-3) chasing goods. Well, GDP (goods and services) is growing 
    annually around 3.8 percent, yet M-3 was being pumped at three times that 
    rate of growth. The difference had to go somewhere. It did. Into markets, 
    and very probably equity markets.
    Why all the M-3? Undoubtedly because the PPT wanted to manipulate 
    markets at this time for reasons that are secret to everyone but them. We 
    are left to speculate as to those reasons. Is the economy closer to the brink than anyone 
    realizes? Or, is it politically expedient to goose markets? Do the 
    corporatist elitists want the big payback for backing the powers that be, 
    and insist upon a rising market into year end? Does Greenspan have an 
    all-encompassing, overriding desire to ensure his legacy by seeing the Dow 
    Industrials at an all-time high when he retires in 
    January? We aren't privy 
    to the reasons because the Master Planners do not believe in the forthright 
    flow of information. They believe that bad news cannot be handled by the 
    flock, that confidence must be boosted at all costs, even if it entails 
    manipulating the markets. Don't let the dead be honored, instead sneaking 
    them into Dover at night. Don't let the real jobless figures be released, 
    goose them with a phony birth/death adjustment, and so on. Now we can kiss 
    goodbye the most important Fed statistic computed. Do you see what is 
    happening folks? The Unpatriotic Act steals your civil liberties. Three 
    young girls from Kansas cannot board an Amtrak train to New York unless they 
    have a government issued photo ID. Not some futuristic sci-fi plot. Now. It 
    is called Corporatist Fascism. Next could be freedom of speech. Then martial 
    law. A computer chip under your skin. Eventually, your right to vote. Then 
    it is all over, game set and match.
    Not a peep from Congress on the massacre of 
    M-3. Oh the figure 
    will be calculated. We just won't be allowed to know it anymore. Really begs 
    the question, once again, why? Obviously because the Master Planners 
    expect to have to increase the Money Supply very rapidly, to extraordinary 
    levels next year. 
    Obviously because they believe they are going to need to buy equity and bond 
    markets aggressively next year. Do they see a catastrophe coming that will 
    require hyperinflation to bail the U.S. out? Maybe. Every time we've had a 
    tragic event of mass proportions in 2005, the equity markets have 
    mysteriously risen out of the blue, sharply, taking shorts to the cleaners. 
    London bombing, Katrina, Rita, indictment of a top administration official, 
    etc... Yes, the Master Planners have learned that they have the wherewithal 
    and the gall to buy the markets - and get away with it. They have learned 
    that at those times when markets are at greatest risk, when shorts have 
    their positions lined up, a little S&P futures index buying, a select 
    few large cap stock buys, a leak to the trading floor that their golden boy 
    trader is buying is enough to send the shorts scurrying for cover and buy 
    the market. You see, 
    the PPT only needs to kick start the buying. Then the shorts buy. Then the 
    Hedge Funds jump on the bandwagon in search of that elusive trend - either 
    up or down - deciding it is going to be up, and keep the rally 
    going. But by the time 
    the Hedgies are buying, the PPT is able to get out (and their Wall Street 
    friends who took the risk and bought with them early) at a nice profit, the 
    shorts are out licking their losses, and we watch a waning rally with low 
    upside volume, low advance/decline ratios, and a high number of New Lows - 
    kinda like right now.
    Yes, don't let the technical analysts and Fed 
    watchers know when the PPT is coming in. That will spook the shorts out and 
    the PPT needs the 
    shorts in. But the March 
    2006 M-3 announcement makes one wonder. What in the world are they going to be up to 
    next year, that will require hiding the growth of money supply from the U.S. 
    citizenry who used to own this country, who elected this 
    outfit? War? A big-time 
    war? Martial law? Could it be as simple and corporatist as merely wanting to 
    drive equity markets higher so weak political ratings improve? Maybe nothing 
    to do with national security at all? These are the types of questions every 
    thinking man and woman needs to ask themselves and their congressional 
    representatives, given the Fed announcement. Remember, the original mandate of the Fed was to ensure 
    a stable currency. Money. So now they aren't going to release their measure 
    of money to the public? 
    One thing that can be agreed upon, based upon our technical analysis work, 
    is that we are sitting upon an incredibly fragile moment in the markets, one 
    that is in no shape to psychologically withstand a catastrophic event on its 
    own. It would thus appear that the Federal Reserve, in tandem with the 
    Master Planner Team, is taking steps to prepare for the worst, and 
    unfortunately that requires secrecy from the people. Secrecy about how much 
    money is going into the economy. Secrecy.
