The CBs are pumping liquidity like without tomorrow, their mentality is that a strong market may fence off the pandemic.  So more coronavirus infections higher the stock prices  .................

internals top before price, at the end of a wave, it goes up no matter what. The price stage is here, craziness to follow.

I think its been easier to just track the Fed balance sheet and the treasuries owned by the Fed. Both are in a steady uptrend. Updated on the FRED website every Thursday after the close.

Central bankers deny the fact and want to clear up the  "mistaken impression".  They think that the public does not understand why there is a continuous shortage of cash in the interbank system.  I tell you the ultimate cause of the shortage is the Fed's prolonged low interest rate policy that drives money away from saving in the banks and the banks are reluctant to lend the money to real economy.  It also drives the unprecedented corporate buybacks.  Basically the Fed policy drives the money into the virtual economy (the markets) from the real economy, so it has to keep pumping liquidity and unable to stop or the economy will suffer .............

So, they are either ignorant or liars.

May sound like a ridiculous question

Can this pump simply go on for decades non-stop?
I mean its not even like the debt the FED is taking on is being counted against the US Debt. Does it really truly matter they are taking on this debt outside of the fact it is supporting the stock market?

Is there an game to their pump?

I think the pump can go on and on as long as the policy makers think this is the only way to support the economy and their job is to prevent cycles in the economy for reasons either political or something else.  After all to them money was just a piece of printed paper (many years ago) and now it's just keystrokes on their computers.  However, that the pump can go on and on does not mean the effect will be always the same .................
