Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben...

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be along
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's one thing you should know
You got a place to go

I used to say "I" and "Me"
Now it's "Us:, Now it's "We"

Keep up the good work, Ben.

BigB is buying assets at artificially inflated prices, assets that wouldn't be at those prices if Bernanke wasn't massively attacking the offer. It's no different from forcing up a stock that has a small float.

I spent hours to determine the direction and value of the market instruments, he comes and prints and assigns an arbitrary value that he thinks it is more appropriate. If I happen to be a short seller, too bad for me, I get run over.

So much for the free markets... It is also not a surprise that he almost always decide to print when there are a lot of speculators who are short, directly targeting the short sellers sometimes even rather than the prices of the securities and this is also legal, it is like a battle if you are short in the US markets.

I had shorts going into AH today, they were all profitable, they got all chopped off minutes ago as the printing once again barged its way into the prices...
