Are Markets Really as Calm as they Seem |
Indicators for financial market "stress" have reached their lowest levels in decades. For instance, stock market volatility has never been this low since the early 1990s. Credit spreads have been shrinking, and prices for credit default swaps have fallen to pre-crisis levels. In fact, investors are no longer haunted by concerns about the stability of the financial system, potential credit defaults, and unfavourable surprises in the economy or financial assets markets. How come?

What Could Possibly Go wrong |
It’s been more than three months since the “Dow Jones Propaganda Average” declined more than 1% in a day, and a year since a 5% correction – BrExit, Trump, and all. According to “soft data” surveys like “consumer sentiment,” Americans have never been more “bullish.” Moreover, equity valuations are at all-time highs – despite six straight quarters of declining year-over-year earnings; the weakest “hard data” since the 2008 financial crisis; a surging dollar that is destroying America’s competitWednesday, February 15, 2017 |

The Next Financial Crisis Will Come from Europe! |
A financial system stability assessment report, from the International Monetary
Fund (IMF), on one bank in Europe identified Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE: DB), as
the TOP bank that poses the greatest systemic risk to the global financial
system. Systemic risk was identified as a major contributing factor in the
'financial crisis' of 2008. This is essentially the risk of contagion by the
failure of one firm leading to failures throughout its' industry.

Deutsche Bank “Is Probably Insolvent” |
by Tim PriceThis is getting to be a habit. Previous late summer holidays by this correspondent coincided with the run on Northern Rock, and subsequently with the failure of Lehman Brothers. So the final crawl towards the probable nationalisation of Deutsche Bank came as no particular surprise this year, but it is tiresome to relate nevertheless.The 2015 annual report for Deutsche Bank runs to some 448 pages, so one rather doubts if even its CEO, John Cryan, has read it all, or has a complete graTuesday, October 4, 2016 |

Mark This Date-Global War Has Arrived |
Last week, I wrote an entire article about lying, invoking the name of history’s most infamous liar, Joseph Goebbels. Come to think of it, it was the second such article in a month, following September’s “who are worse liars, politicians or Central bankers?”
The reason being, that the pace of global economic collapse has accelerated so rapidly (see this morning’s horrific U.S. industrial production report, restaurant performance index, and heavy duty truck orders), that the powers that be’s’ efMonday, October 3, 2016 |

How Constant Is Gold’s Purchasing Power |
An often-perceived analysis in the gold community is that gold is the constant in our global economy. But is this true? Yes and no. Allow me to share my observations. Although gold has an exceptionally constant nature, and we have yet to see another currency that can compete with gold’s constant nature, the reality is, that there is no exact constant in economics. In any market all goods, assets, currencies, etc. continuously fluctuate in value relative to each other due to ever changing supplyMonday, October 3, 2016 |

Another Banking Crisis Begins |
Rudi Fronk and Jim Anthony, co-founders of Seabridge Gold, discuss Deutsche Bank's latest movements and what a bailout could look like.
When financial systems begin to fail, the banks are always at the center. When your assets are mostly tied up in long-term, relatively illiquid transactions while your funding is mostly of the overnight variety, from depositors, money market funds and other banks, trouble is never far away. Banks are the perfect stress iSunday, October 2, 2016 |

Japan’s New Framework of Hyperinflationary Failure |
Am I allowed to start with Deutsche Bank? Or do I have to defer to the Bank of Japan’s Keystone Kops; who once again laid a giant goose egg? Who, beyond a shadow of a doubt, proved they have not a clue what they are doing – in dramatically accelerating the pace at which the “Land of the Setting Sun” plunges to “second world” status, en route to becoming the first “Western Power” to experience 21st Century hyperinflation.

Pam Martens' Warning to the Fed and the Clintons in 1998 - And She Warns Them Again Now |
It is the same players that we saw enabling reckless behaviour in 1998: Citigroup, the Fed, and the Clinton-led Wall Street Democrats.
And here we are again, almost eighteen years later, watching the same short term, selfish behaviour by the big money banks putting the entire economy of productive individuals at risk again.

Don't Bank On Rate Hikes! |
This past Friday, June 3rd, 2016, The Bureau of Labor Statistics released
their most recent report regarding new employment data and nonfarm payroll
employment which indicates that during May of 2016, it was the smallest increase
seen in 28 months.
During May of 2016, there were 144,592,000 payroll jobs within the US, which
was up by 1.6 percent, or equivalent to 2.3 million jobs, from May of 2015
(These are all not-seasonally-adjusted numbers).
That represents the smallest year-over-yMonday, June 6, 2016 |

The Biggest Bubbles: China vs. the U.S. - Jeff Nielson |
There is perhaps no other area where the
tunnel-vision, hypocrisy, and corruption of the U.S. media is more visible than
with respect to its nearly incessant China-bashing. Previous commentaries have
exposed such vacuous drivel
again
and again
and again.
While the subject matter of the Corporate
media’s China-bashing varies month to month, regularly interspersed in this
propaganda are numerous variations of “China’s economy is in a bubble.” Once
again this week, this is a theme in the U.S.Thursday, May 19, 2016 |

Central Bankers’ Bogus Wand Will Have No Effect |
Central Bank heads believe they are magicians who can wave their magic wand to create whatever economic conditions they desire. But the problem is that they are consistently wrong in their assessment of the economy so they don’t know what to do with the wand. Also, the wand is not magic but just bogus. And this is the dilemma of all central banks. They are given unlimited powers to manipulate monetary policy and to print money.
But when you give infinite powers to someone who can neither assessThursday, February 25, 2016 |

Next Banking Crisis Is Already Here - Opportunity! |
When the next great financial crisis strikes, millions will be blindsided
by what is coming and will be shocked by a "New Great Depression of The 21st
Century". This does not have to happen to you. It is empowering to know what
is coming and to understand why it is coming. It is important to get prepared
in advance for turbulent times. It is also imperative to have a plan for the
years ahead. I will do my best to prepare you in advance for any eventuality.

Deutsche Bank's Death Throes |
Zero Hedge calls it the “most hated dead-cat bounce ever” – as economic fundamentals, and the associated equity overvaluations – have even perma-bullish Wall Street “throwing up all over it.” Consequently, JP Morgan, Bank of America, and the rest of the “all’s well” crowd are actually telling clients to “sell the rip,” instead of “buy the dip” as they have relentlessly recommended since the dawn of time. Not that they’ll necessarily be right – as said “experts”’ track record is not much betterWednesday, February 17, 2016 |
