Zero Hour Debt Has Arrived

As I have warned investors a few months ago on the "Zero Hour Debt" problem here on July 2012, today we find out that GDP has actually reached the 0% growth rate while the debt growth is increasing at an enormous pace. Real GDP in the U.S. has decreased 0.1% in the fourth quarter of 2012 to a mere $15.8 trillion while debt has grown 2.4% to $16.4 trillion.

As you can see on Chart 1, the ratio between nominal GDP Growth and Total National Debt Growth has touched the zero line, which means that additional debt growth is not stimulating the economy anymore. We really are reaching the end game here and will see a parabolic increase in debt.
