SEASON 01 – EPISODE 12
Welcome back to Milkshakes, Markets, & Madness where we invite you to share a laugh with us each week as we discuss our favorite Twitter tantrums and the madness of financial markets.
If you are new to the show please read the LEARN MORE section which follows the show description and chapter timestamps, underneath the embedded video below.
In addition to the embedded video above, there is also an audio player at the bottom of this page
First things first, we made sure the audio was perfect on this recording, so enjoy everyone!
Also, prepare yourself for an extra dose of Madness as the Milkshakes Duo will now be recording twice-a-week.
Into the markets we go, and deep into the abyss we fall, how big of a hole below, no one knows.
Although, the recent $300 billion added to The Fed balance sheet only seems like a drop in the bucket.
To stop this market from falling, policy makers are going to need a bigger gun.
Just don’t give it to Janet Yellen, who shot herself in the foot after “saying the quiet part out loud” – verbally signing the death sentence for small banks everywhere.
Speaking of Yellen, Jon has a meme request for our Milkshakes Madness family.
Whether you are watching from the Ivory Tower, or from your mom’s basement, it might not be the time to go long, but…
It is a great time to tune in for another episode of the Milkshakes, Markets, and Madness Show.
