[This article pretty much sums up my economic hunches right now](http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-22/one-big-fat-ugly-bubble?ref=thedailyeudemon.com):

> The Deep State's next move is to pin the coming stock market collapse on Trump. When people think “Greater Depression,” they'll think “Donald Trump.”

> The economy has been on life support since the 2008 financial crisis. The Fed has pumped it up with unprecedented amounts of “stimulus.” This has created enormous distortions and misallocations of capital that need to be flushed.

> Think of the trillions of dollars in money printing programs–euphemistically called quantitative easing (QE) 1, 2, and 3.

> Meanwhile, with zero and even negative interest rates in many countries, rates are the lowest they've been in 5,000 years of recorded human history.

> This is not hyperbole. We're really in uncharted territory. (Interest rates were never lower than 6% in ancient Greece, and ranged from 4% to over 12% in ancient Rome.)

> The too-big-to-fail banks are even bigger than they were in 2008\. They have more derivatives, and they're much more dangerous.

> If the Deep State wants to trigger a stock market collapse on par with 1929, it just has to pull the plug on the extraordinary life support measures it's used since the last crisis.

> It's already baked in the cake. It's just a matter of when they decide to trigger the controlled demolition.

> Donald Trump is the perfect fall guy. And there are signs the Deep State is already starting to get its revenge.

> The most important variable to watch is the Federal Reserve–the quintessential establishment institution.
