Exit, Hope and Change |
Yes, that was a gag.
By now, anyone in this country still of sound mind knows that Barack Obama presided through eight years of remarkable continuity — of changeless conditions that left a great many hopeless. As the days of his tenure dwindle, what do we make of the departing 44th president?

Clear and Present Danger! |
The cycle since 2009 has been different from other market cycles, throughout
history, in only one significant manner. That having been said, it is the Global
Central Banks that have intentionally pushed interest rates to zero and below.
This encouraged investors to speculate in the equity markets which have now
become 'dangerously overvalued, overbought,' as well as 'over bullish' extremes
according to all measures. In my opinion, this has "deferred" and not eliminated

Wake the fuck up! Today we turn from the sordid dumbshow of Election 2016 to the parlous mysteries of finance and economics behind our sick politics. Most of the commentary in the mainstream special needs news media is based on the incorrect notion that the current disposition of things is sure to continue and therefore all we have to do is manage the familiar dynamics of the operating system in place.

It’s Monday morning, and the “new era” of indefinitely depressed oil prices has officially arrived. To wit, on Saturday, the International Atomic Energy Agency validated Iran’s compliance with the U.S.-led “nuclear deal,” enabling Iran to add 0.5 to 1.5 million barrels per day to global supply this year. This, to a market already sporting record high inventories, and a daily glut of roughly 1.0 million barrels, per this commentary from a Miles Franklin Blog reader this weekend.

Something Happened |
B en Bernanke’s memoir is out and the chatter about it inevitably turns to the sickening moments in September 2008 when “the world economy came very close to collapse.” Easy to say, but how many people know what that means? It’s every bit as opaque as the operations of the Federal Reserve itself.
There were many ugly facets to the problem but they all boiled down to global insolvency — too many promises to pay that could not be met. The promises, of course, were quite hollow. They accumulated ovMonday, October 26, 2015 |

Musings on the Second Great Recovery Experiment and the Promise of Natural Gas: Ron Muhlenkamp |
The Energy Report: Ron, in an online seminar in June, you compared the government's response to the 2008 financial panic and recession with its response to the recession of 1980�82. How are those recessions comparable?
Ronald Muhlenkamp: We've had 12 recessions since World War II. We had a serious recession in 1973�74, and I've done a lot of work on recessions ever since. The 2008 recession shared a distinction with the 1980�82 recession: Each, at the time, was the most serious recession since Thursday, August 21, 2014 |

The most amusing question asked of the Jackass by clients and other people is when the system is going to break down. My usual answer is 2008, which causes a strange reaction, since a past date. Then they are given a tactful tongue lashing that they have failed to notice, detect, or discern properly the failed system in front of their noses. Further quizzical looks and pleas for explanation bring a torrent of headline facts. Seeing events through a different lens of statistical reality with almoSaturday, July 5, 2014 |
