Currencies & metals see profit taking on Tuesday. Banks in Europe have the same problems. Good Day… And a Wonderful Wednesday to you! And Welcome to t.

the day that was [forecast](https://www.fxstreet.com/rates-charts/forecast) to be the day that the digital currency was announced… I still think that when the announcement is made for digital currency, that will be done on a weekend, and we’ll start Monday with digits… And that position is to either throw out all the work in fighting inflation (rate hikes), and allow inflation to rise and take over the economy thus brining it to its knees… My position on this is that we need to defeat inflation, and worry about the other stuff later, we need to get households back on terra firma, and if that causes a long recession, then so be it… And so, to me, now is NOT the time to pivot, for the Fed Funds rate is still below the inflation rate!

That buying bonds with a low yield, was not a good idea, if the next bond that’s issued has a higher yield, and the next bond has an even higher yield, etc… I forgot to mention something else that good friend, Dennis Miller and I talked about the other day, and that is the new program that the Fed Heads introduced that will provide funding to banks in trouble… They can’t believe that the walking talking dolts, have seen the banks for what they are and are pulling money out of them.
