Don\u2019t be surprised to see a 40-50% correction in the Dow Jones over the next month.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been keeping an eye on the Fed Repo Operations and was quite surprised this morning to see the Fed has already injected a record $120 billion into the market. Again, this is the largest single-day amount of Fed liquidity, going back to the first Repo Operation on September 17, 2019:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moneymetals.com\/uploads\/content\/FRED-Repo-Chart-March-2-20.jpg\" alt=\"Fed Repo Purchases Chart (March 2, 2020) - FRED Chart\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, I had to enlarge the chart to accommodate the Fed\u2019s newest liquidity injection this morning\u2026 and the day isn\u2019t over yet\u2026 LOL. The Fed\u2019s largest single-day Repo injection was $89.1 billion on October 24. Yesterday, on Monday, March 2, the Fed accepted $53.1 billion from the dealers:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moneymetals.com\/uploads\/content\/Fed-Repo-830-March-2-20.jpg\" alt=\"Fed Repo (March 2, 2020)\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The $53.1 billion is shown in the FRED chart above for yesterday. Now compare that to the record $120 billion so far today, shown in the next two graphics. The first $20 billion was accepted at 8:15 am, and the $100 billion was taken on 8:45 am:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moneymetals.com\/uploads\/content\/Fed-Repo-815-March-3-20.jpg\" alt=\"Fed Repo (March 3, 2020)\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moneymetals.com\/uploads\/content\/Fed-Repo-845-March-3-20.jpg\" alt=\"Fed Repo 2 (March 3, 2020)\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Clearly, there is something SERIOUSLY WRONG in the Financial markets for the Fed to being injected $120 billion, the most since it started its Rep operations last September.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I believe investors and the market have no idea just how bad this Global Contagion will be like over the next 2-4 weeks\u2026 and longer. As I stated, don\u2019t be surprised to see the Dow Jones Index lose 40-50% from its peak over the next month. Traders and Wall Street are going to get destroyed, and there is little they can do about it.<\/p><div id=\"inves-4220026518\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/countingpips.com\/articles-analysis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/money-metals.png\" width=\"80\" height=\"79\" align=\"left\" \/> The Money Metals News Service provides market news and crisp commentary for investors following the precious metals markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Money Metals News Service &#8211; The Fed injected a record amount of liquidity this morning via its Repo Market Operation to supply dealers in the interbank market.
