    Wow! She is brilliant! Excellent guest -- my first introduction to her. I'd love to put her and Lyn Alden in a room together and just listen. I spend most of my time separating the signal from the noise (a 98% to 2% ratio, IMO). Thanks for providing this interview as a prime example of the 2% that actually moves the needle in terms of education and understanding. 👍

    Is The Fed responsible for printing money or bank reserves?

    • @eikoGoldstein
      @eikoGoldstein 3 месяца назад

      Responsible? The Fed controls the printing presses which make money(currency) out of paper and and metal. Examine your dollar bill. It says: Federal Reserve Note. The Fed can also create money in the form known as bank reserves, by electronically crediting banks. While it is authorized to manipulate the supply of money at its own discretion, (to accomplish its mandate) it must also respond to lawfully authorized requests, to make sure the Treasury has funds to accomplish the tasks set for it by the Congress. When the Fed purchases debt issued by the Treasury, this is called monetizing the debt and it can be noted on the Fed's balance sheet.

      So why do you keep listening? By "These people" you are grouping together a whole variety of people, including those that are 10 times smarter than you and have got 10x better return than you, and also people who just BS the whole way. Meaningless to group them together and make a generalized sour comment.

      Beating the market is not as hard as it is made out to be honestly. I beat the market and part of how I do that is being receptive to new ideas and learning new things.
