[Chart] Why The Fed Matters To You

Talking about the Fed is boring. 

I get it. 

Regular investors aren’t interested in short-term rates, yield curves, and over-analyzing government bureaucrat crypto speak. 

They want to read up on the next hot growth industries, technology, and dividends. 

But you better believe the Fed will have a greater impact on your investing success than any other factor for the foreseeable future. 

We’ve found a chart that explains exactly why too. 

The chart was featured a few weeks ago by Ben Hunt at Epsilon Theory.

The article with the chart is titled A Brief History Of The Past 10,000 Years Of Monetary Policy And Why The Last Week Was A Big Deal.

The chart shows beyond any doubt why the Fed is the driving force behind the bust-boom-bubble era we’ve lived in for decades. 

It also shows why stocks today carry far more risk than potential rewards right now. 

Don’t worry. The Fed will commit to reflating the bubble. 

But you want to be cashed up and ready for it when that time comes around again.
