Terminal (Money) Velocity? M2 Money Velocity Crashes To Near All-time Low As Fed Continues To Print Money At 9% YoY Clip (Mortgage Rates Keep Rising)
Confounded Interest ^ | 04/29/2022 | Anthony B. Sanders

Posted on 04/29/2022 2:29:55 AM PDT by Browns Ultra Fan

M2 Money Velocity (GDP/M2 Money) peaked in Q3 1997, but after several bouts of Fed money printing, M2 Money Velocity is near the all-time low at 1.1216 In Q1 2022. And M2 Money stock is still growing at a torrid pace of 9.9% YoY. But the massive overreaction of The Federal Reserve in response to the Covid outbreak has led to near zero money velocity.

Now with The Federal Reserve considering removing the monetary stimulus, what will happen to US GDP left to survive on its own?

An example of how The Fed’s expected tightening of monetary policy can be seen in the meteoric rise in mortgage rates.

So, the US has hit terminal money velocity. I wish The Fed lots of luck going forward.

Is Charlie Sheen the Chairman of The Federal Reserve Board of Governors??

Explains why a world facing a nuke threat in Europe, half of congress getting Covid (All 'rats/'rinos), supply chain stoppages, $5 gas, a doddering potus and useless vpotus... and still the DOW having $800 up days amid $1000 down days. The stock market is being propped up by M2.

Maybe the Feds will introduce complex interest rates again.

“M2 Money Velocity Crashes To Near All-time Low”

This guy is nothing but a perpetual drama queen. The FED changed the definition of M2 in May 2020 which caused the velocity calculation to take a big drop, so comparing values before then and now is comparing apples and oranges.

"...How’s your garden growing?"

The evening before Easter Sunday, the cold killed my zucchini plants.
Every last one.

No problem - I'll plant more - they grow fast.
I already have more seeds. (I ordered them Easter Sunday morning.)

'Zucchini Inflation' ya know...

Luckily the tomato seedlings survived the ordeal.

The Fed is officially out of bullets. Interest rates will have a life of their own.

Who didn’t see this coming?

So changing the definition of reality makes it all better?

The government changes the terms for CPI and PPI all the time to suit their needs.

There is no velocity of money and inflation is at least 15%. No matter how how you twist it.

I wasn’t attacking you. I think I may have responded to the wrong guy.

I will find your doppleganger and take that guy out for you.

Actually I was. The Fed conveniently changes the terms of M1,2,3,4,5,6. When it suits them.

I’ll still find your doppleganger if you want.

So do you think it is smart to compare numbers from different definitions, YES or NO?
