"It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane," wrote Philip K. Dick. Is that why the Fed has lost the plot? As the reality of its balance sheet and the growing debt induced junk bond bubble hits, will the Fed continue to hike? Or is it hiking only so that it has room to cut when the crash inevitably comes?
