Those Who Ignore History... [The aforementioned from The Pragmatic

Capitalist is a cogent summary of extant problems which undoubtedly
will end quite badly for the unwary (today’s folly represents a great
opportunity to sell / take profits), infra, and should be read in tandem
with Graham Summer’s exposé which follows. Yet, the situation as
realistically bad as they’ve so presented same, is far more dire than
even they posit for the u.s. particularly owing to structural problems
now inherent to america’s economy / business model which bodes ill
as never before in america’s relatively short history. U.S. Stocks
Surge On Overseas Growth Riiiiight! Some of the same mainstream,
(msnbc) ‘money honey’ drivel one would expect from Forbes faux
‘capitalist tool’ cheerleading squad, totally devoid of forward-looking
analytical prowess and leaves you burned every time. Come on!
Government Motors and Ford sales were down significantly,
construction spending down, private sector jobs lost, and even BofA’s
Merrill Lynch has sugar-coated the reality cutting the wall street
frauds a break by calling this a ‘growth rececession’. The typical
fraudulent wall street churn-and-earn computerized trade scam with
built in commission volume for the way down. Sorry to say it, but the
reality is: This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in
a global depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***)
cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated
bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the
wall street frauds and insiders commission and sell into. This is a
typical wall street churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud as
 in prior crashes’. This national decline, economic and otherwise, will
not end until justice is served and the wall street frauds et als are
criminally prosecuted, jailed, fined, and disgorgement imposed.]

Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur

world is currently experiencing the modern day equivalent of the
Great Depression, according to a prominent economist who has
added his voice to scores of others now forecasting ongoing
economic doom on a scale not seen since the 1930s.) , and my
position and that of demographer Dent). ] ***** The Pragmatic
Capitalist ‘My position over the last 2 years has been as follows: this
is a Main Street debt crisis. I have been highly critical of the
government’s incessant interventionist policies over the last few
years largely because they ignore the actual problems at hand. First it
was Mr. Bernanke saving the banks because he believed the credit
crisis started with the banking sector. The great monetarist gaffe
ensued. Tim Geithner piled on with the PPIP. FASB jumped on board
the bank rescue plan by altering the accounting rules. And then the
icing on the cake was the Recovery Act, which, in my opinion, just
shoveled money into the hole that had become the output gap,
without actually trying to target the real cause of the crisis – those
burdened by the debt. In essence, the various bailouts primarily
targeted everyone except the people who really needed it.

A year ago I posted a story citing the many reasons why we were sinking
into the deflationary Japanese trap. The primary flaw with the US response
to the crisis was that we never actually confronted the problem at hand. I
have often cited Japanese economists such as Richard Koo who appear to
have a good grasp on the problems in Japan and now in the USA. In this
case, I cited Keiichiro Kobayashi who is now looking most prescient:

We continue to ignore our past and the warnings from those

who have dealt with similar financial crises. Keiichiro
Kobayashi, Senior Fellow at the Research Institute of
 Economy, Trade and Industry is the latest economist with an
in-depth understanding of Japan, who says the U.S. and U.K.
are making all the same mistakes:

“Bad debt is the root of the crisis. Fiscal stimulus may help
economies for a couple of years but once the “painkilling”
effect wears off, US and European economies will plunge back
into crisis. The crisis won’t be over until the nonperforming
assets are off the balance sheets of US and European banks.”

Read that last paragraph again. These are scarily accurate comments.
While the USA claims to have many economists who understand the Japan
disease and/or the Great Depression the policy actions we’ve undertaken
do not appear to be in line with any understanding of this history.
What we’ve done over the last few years is repeat the mistakes of Japan’s
past. Instead of confronting the debt problems head on we have simply
tried to fill the output gap with short-term spending plans and impotent
monetary policies. As Kobayashi presciently said, the “bad debt is the root
of the crisis”. I think most mainstream economists, the administration and
the Fed have continually misdiagnosed our problems. They have attempted
to save the banking sector and simply fill in holes with spending plans that
prop up markets, entice more borrowing and largely ignore the actual
cause of the current crisis. Some economists have argued that the
Recovery Act didn’t fail, but that it was too small. This is like saying that
the cancer patient didn’t receive enough percocet. More percocet isn’t the
cure. Targeting the cancer and trying to cut it out is the cure. Yet, we
continue to ignore the lessons of Japan despite having so many “experts”
on the Japanese disease. Therefore, we appear destined to repeat their
horrid economic history assuming our current path isn’t miraculously
altered.’

WHO ELSE IS CLUELESS IN THE FINANCIAL SECTOR? [ As I’ve previously

said and reiterate here, the lunatic frauds on wall street are criminally insane and
the only way to stop / deter their debilitating churn and earn among other
computerized frauds is prosecution, jail, fines, and disgorgement! Once again
they’re back to their huge fraudulent gains as seen this reporting period despite
growing problem bank list, worthless paper from the prior fraud in the (hundreds
of) trillions now marked to anything, and look at August results and worse to
come; that money for their commissions / premiums must come from someplace,
viz., the bubble which will deflate / crash. ] Graham Summers ‘Here’s a zinger
of a news story:
 Barclays Plc had no idea how big Lehman
Brothers Holdings Inc.’s futures-and-options
trading business was when it considered taking
over the defunct bank’s derivatives trades at
exchanges in 2008, a Barclays executive
said.“Lehman’s books were in such a mess that I
don’t think they knew where they were,” Elizabeth
James, a director of Barclays’s futures business,
testified today in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan.
James worked on Barclays’s purchase of Lehman’s
brokerage during the 2008 financial crisis.--
Bloomberg

I’ve railed for months that the central issue surrounding the Financial Crisis
(derivatives) was not only misunderstood but completely ignored by the
mainstream financial media. Here we are, nearly two years after Lehman
Brothers went bust, and they’re telling us that Lehman had “no idea” what its
options and futures exposure was.
Let’s put this into perspective.
The notional value of the derivatives market at the time that Lehman went bust
was somewhere between $600 trillion and $1 Quadrillion (1,000 trillions). It was a
market of inter-linked paper contracts entangling virtually every financial
institution (including some non-financials), country (Greece, Italy used derivatives
to get into the European union), and county (Birmingham Alabama is one
example) in the world. As a market it was at least 20 times larger than the
world stock market and somewhere north of 10 times World GDP.
In other words, this was the giant white elephant in the living room.
And here’s Lehman brothers, one of Wall Streets’ finest, most respected financial
institutions which had been in business for over 150 years announcing that it had
“no idea” “if it had sold $2 billion more options than it had bought, or whether it
owned $4 billion more than it had sold.”
In today’s world of trillion dollar bailouts, $2-4 billion doesn’t sound like much, so
let’s give some perspective here… in its golden days, Lehman Brother’s market
cap was roughly $47 billion. So you’re talking about bets equal to an amount
between five and 10% of its market cap. Not exactly chump change.
And Lehman had no idea where it was or how much it really owed.
Mind you, we’re only addressing Lehman’s options and futures derivatives, we’re
completely ignoring its mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt
obligations (CDOs), and other Level 3 assets. Options and futures are literally the
“tip of the iceberg,” the most visible portion of the behemoth that was Lehman’s
off balance sheet derivative issues. After all, these are regulated securities,
unlike most derivatives.
Now, if the above statement doesn’t send shivers down your spine, have a look
at the notional value of derivatives exposure at the top five financial institutions in
the US (mind you, this chart is denominated in TRILLIONS). [chart]
If Lehman had “no idea” what it owned even when it came to options and futures
(regulated derivatives), what are the odds that these other firms, whose
derivative exposure is tens if not hundreds of times larger than that of Lehman’s,
might similarly be “in the dark’ regarding their risk?
Moreover, who on earth might be on the opposite end of these deals? Other US
counties like Birmingham Alabama (which JP Morgan transformed into 3rd world
country status)? Other countries like Italy or Greece (who used Goldman’s
financial engineering to get into the European Union)? My next-door neighbor’s
house? Tim Geithner’s long-lost tax returns? WHO KNOWS?
The point is that the very same issues that nearly took the financial world
under in 2008 still exist today. In fact, this time around the systemic risk is
even more severe.
Consider that the Credit Default Swap (CDS) market which nearly took the
financial system down in 2008 was roughly $50-60 trillion in size. In contrast, the
interest rate based derivative market is in the ballpark of $500+ trillion.
Indeed, US commercial banks alone have $182 TRILLION in notional value of
interest rate based derivatives outstanding right now. To put that ridiculous
number in perspective it’s 13 times US GDP and roughly three times
WORLD GDP…’

bankruptcies over the last couple of years includes big names like Lehman
Brothers, Washington Mutual, and GM. And financial institutions like Bank
of America (NYSE: BAC), Citigroup (NYSE: C), Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC)
received billions of dollars through the federal government's Troubled
Asset Relief Program. Should investors add the U.S. government to that list
of big name bankruptcies? I recently asked Boston University economics

Ron Paul to Fed, Ft. Knox: Show Me the Gold at Minyanville

The Deteriorating Macro Picture

1. The explosion in private debt (excessive housing borrowing,

excessive corporate debt, etc) levels would reveal the private sector
as unable to sustain positive economic growth, de-leveraging and
deflation would ensue.
2. Government intervention would help moderately boost aggregate
demand, improve bank balance sheets, improve sentiment, boost
asset prices but fail to result in sustained economic recovery as
private sector balance sheet recession persists.
3. Extremely depressed estimates and corporate cost cutting would
improve margins and generate a moderate earnings rebound, but
would come under pressure in 2010 as margin expansion failed to
continue at the 2009 rate.
4. The end of government intervention in H2 2010 will reveal severe
strains in housing and will reveal the private sector as still very weak
and unable to sustain economic growth on its own.

The rebound in assets was surprisingly strong and the ability of

corporations to sustain bottom line growth has been truly impressive – far
better than I expected. However, I am growing increasingly concerned that
the market has priced in overly optimistic earnings sustainability – in other
words, estimates and expectations have overshot to the upside.
What we’ve seen over the last few years is not terribly complex in my
opinion. The housing boom created what was in essence a massively
leveraged household sector. The problems were compounded by the
leveraging in the financial sector, however, this was merely a symptom of
the real underlying problem and not the cause of the financial crisis
(despite what Mr. Bernanke continues to say and do to fix the economy) …’

Obama promises new efforts to boost economy (Washington Post) [ New

efforts with the same old failed team covering for the previous same
old failed team? The same promised new efforts which were nothing
new at all; viz., focus on new war in Afghanistan, increase budget
deficits, a penchant for the very perps who precipitated the financial

a closer look at those car sales raises questions about whether the auto

the decades-old rules for the export of sensitive military and other
technology, jettisoning what industry groups criticize as an antiquated
"Cold War" set of regulations.

In the Middle East, it's still 1947 (Washington Post) [ Indeed it should be!

square pegs in round holes ever since, to america’s substantial detriment. I
wonder what what those american sailors of the US Liberty killed by the
israelis would say? USS Liberty Survivor Threatened by Unknown Israeli
This is what happened to Phillip F. Tourney, decorated war hero and
survivor of Israel’s premeditated attack on the USS Liberty 43 years ago.
On the evening of Aug. 6, Tourney was verbally threatened by a foreign
national claiming to work for the government of israel. As for the purported
disdain shown for war mongerer netanayahu, if only wobama’s actions
matched his words, the same would represent a major plus for him and the
nation of america, so sorely in need of pluses whether the same be
budgetary or economic or geopolitical. In fact, for America to abrogate
1948 would guarantee America’s survival, prosperity, and global hegemony
in the most positive sense. ]

In the Eye of a Financial Katrina - http://seekingalpha.com/author/wall-

street-sector-selector Sunday, August 29th, was the fifth anniversary of
Hurricane Katrina’s landfall along the Gulf Coast and all of us vividly remember
the horrific images of that day and the days and weeks after. Five years later, the
Gulf Coast has come a long way but most would agree there’s still have a long
way to go and many scars yet to be healed. In the world of money and investing,
the Financial Katrina hit three years ago this month with the beginning of the sub
prime meltdown that led to the “Great Recession.” For the past year or so, we
have been in what appeared to be a recovery but now looks more like the eye of
the storm; today it is quite likely that the second wall of the hurricane is now
rapidly bearing down upon us. The news this week was intensely negative and
the only bright spot came on Friday with Chairman Bernanke’s speech at
Jackson Hole in which he essentially told us, “don’t worry, be happy” and that all
would be well. In spite of the Chairman’s calming tone, Wall Street Sector
Selector remains in the “red flag flying” mode and we believe that an intense
storm lies just ahead. Looking at My Screens On a technical basis, one can
only be bearish and the two charts below tell a quick and scary story. [ chart
courtesy of StockCharts.com ]In the chart of the S&P 500 above we see the
“death cross” highlighted by the downward pointing arrow wherein the 50-Day
Moving Average crossed below the 200-Day Moving Average which is a widely
followed indicator of lower stock prices ahead. In the upper box we see the 14-
day RSI pointing upwards from relatively oversold levels indicating that a short
term bounce could be forthcoming, while the red horizontal line shows the
support at 1040 which was tested and held every day last week. From this
display we can conclude that we are in a bear market, slightly oversold and near
support that, if broken, could lead to a quick drop to the July lows of 1010. [ chart
courtesy of StockCharts.com ] The point and figure chart above paints an even
more ominous picture. A double bottom “sell” signal was generated on August
11th and the index has now broken through the blue bullish support line,
indicating the onset of a new bear market in this major index. Support and
resistance lines in point and figure charting tend to act like firm walls and mark
major turning points in direction, and this recent trend change is the first since
March, 2009, when the lows were hit and last year’s unprecedented rally began.
The breach of this bullish support line is a major development and in my opinion
is an unmistakable sign that it’s time to head for the storm shelters. The View
from 35,000 Feet The fundamental news was equally shocking this week as
existing home sales declined to 3.8 million units for July from a previous level of
5.26 million. This number is a record low and single family home sales were at
the lowest levels since 1995. Truly we are in what could only be described as a
housing market depression, and this comes in spite of historically low mortgage
rates that people appear to be ignoring. Seemingly almost nobody wants to buy a
house at any rate or any price. New home sales fared no better, declining to
record lows, as well, while 25% of mortgage holders are currently “upside down”
in their homes, owning more than they’re worth, and 15% are in some part of the
foreclosure process. Beyond the dismal news from the housing market, the July
Durable Goods report was dismal and points to an ongoing slowdown in capital
spending and on Friday 2nd Quarter GDP was revised downward to 1.6% from a
previous 2.4% in what could only be described as a terrifying result in light of the
stimulus and Federal Reserve intervention required to generate this paltry
number. More and more analysts are pointing to further reductions in GDP for
3rd Quarter towards flat or even negative territory while the stock market seems
currently priced for 1.5-2.5% growth and this creates a situation which is unlikely
to have a positive outcome going forward. Looking across the spectrum of noted
analysts, we find Princeton economist and former Federal Reserve member Alan
Blinder writing an article in the Wall Street Journal titled, “The Fed is Running out
of Ammo” and noted Yale economist Robert Shiller appeared on the Wall Street
Journal’s “Big Interview” and said that a double dip “may be imminent.” And
finally Albert Edwards, the noted analyst from Societe General says to look for
450 on the S&P 500, a roll back to 1982 levels. Fidelity reports that in the second
quarter 25% of people took hardship withdrawals from their 401ks, a number that
represents a 10 year high, to help them meet living expenses and the ECRI
remained in recessionary territory with a -9.9% reading last week. On Friday Intel
(INTC) cut its earnings and revenue forecast and across the Atlantic Ireland was
downgraded and given a negative outlook by S&P. Also in Europe, interest rates
and Credit Default Swap pricing continued to rise as their sovereign debt
situation continues to erode confidence in the outcome of the European Central
Bank’s historic intervention efforts of a couple of months ago. The bond market
remains priced for Armageddon, forming what many say will one day be the
biggest bubble of all time and lead to a historic crash in the bond market
somewhere down the road. But on Friday, Dr. Bernanke cheered world markets
when he told us that he expected no double dip, that growth would continue and
improve and that he and his colleagues stood ready to do whatever it takes to
avoid deflation and that he had the tools to lead the global economy to recovery.
This upbeat assessment comes after unprecedented government stimulus,
interest rates lowered to near zero and $1.7 Trillion of asset purchases by the
Fed since the onset of the Great Recession. So one can only wonder how this is
going to work. If the medicine hasn’t worked so far, why would a little more of the
same medicine make a difference? What It All Means As we’ve been saying for
weeks, a double dip looks highly probable with the odds growing daily, lower
stock prices look likely and to make your chest feel even tighter, summer is
almost over, traders will be back from the Hamptons, the kids will be back in
school and we’re about to enter the dreaded month of September which is
historically the worst month for stock market performance. At Wall Street Sector
Selector, we remain in the “Red Flag” mode, expecting lower prices ahead, and
we forecast that the second storm wall of the Financial Katrina is about to hit.
The Week Ahead To say that a major week lies ahead is a massive
understatement. Economic Reports: A busy round of economic reports this
week will give us a look at personal income and spending, home prices,
manufacturing and what the Federal Reserve really thought at their recent

Stocks up [america down] (Washington Post) Previously reported

economic growth, upon which hundreds of rally ‘points’ were predicated,
revised down by 50% of the actual 1.6%. This is typical but no small
laughing matter which bespeaks the wayward ways of wall street that got
us to this debacle which also includes defacto bankruptcy of the nation.
So, GDP down, consumer confidence down, and stocks rally like no
tomorrow (which is the fraudulent wall street time horizon … they’ll just
commission on the way down). Am I missing something here, particularly
when a more sobering view from a rational player, INTEL, is far more
credible? One former fed chair likened no-recession-helicopter ben
bernanke’s factually deficient, empty words to ‘a doctor telling a patient
he’s not sure of what the problem is (that economic uncertainty thing he
referenced), but if his leg gets worse he can always amputate.’ Previously,

fed! That’s all we need. As if we needed more of what brought us to this
point! Certainly the fed’s role in the continuing and current financial crisis /
debacle cannot be ignored or disputed. Nothing like a hegelian
methodology to create the very problems for which they are called upon to
offer solutions, increasing their sense of importance, and concentrating
power thereby. (Think about it. It is really rather quite absurd that each
meeting time the financial markets hold their bated breath for these
incompetent boobs). Then there’s the cover-up with an opportunity for
enrichment of some, usually the tight-lipped yes-men then ever after and
forever bonded in what becomes tantamount to an almost fraternal link by
‘virtue’ of the crime thereby. No, I’m not saying their initial missteps were
necessarily badly intended, but the manipulations thereafter to obfuscate
their incompetence (senile greenspun, no-recession-helicopter-ben, etc.)
comes at a great price and is nothing less than tantamount to or just
outright crime. I’d abolish the fed without hesitation or compunction. After
all, at this point of decline and defacto bankruptcy of the nation you
certainly can’t point to success nor argue their indispensability. Then
there’s also the missing trillions, over-printing of fiat currency, and all that
sub rosa activity with the worthless fraudulent toxic paper which I believe
is being supplanted with ultimately hard currency to the great benefit of the
frauds and great detriment to the nation.]

“Monetary Shock and Awe”: The Fed prepared to launch most Radical
Intervention in History There’s no talk of green shoots any more, and
even the deficit hawks have gone into hibernation. It feels like the
calm before the storm, which is why all eyes were on Jackson Hole
this morning where Fed chairman Ben Bernanke delivered his verdict
on the state of the economy on Friday.

Debt, Depression, Default. America is in Deep Trouble Items we

customarily purchase, i.e., shoes, clothes, cars would become too
expensive. Consequently, the American financial woes would result in
a global financial decline. The enviable American standard of living
will decrease and the next generation will be saddled with
insurmountable debt, not of their making.

Is Ben Lost? [Yes!] Butter ‘The much awaited speech by Ben Bernanke, on
Friday, was a bit of a non-event. It was interesting, however, to see the 30
Year bounce, from 3.55% to 3.7%, the moment that Ben explained his
cunning plan to push long-term interest rates down. But at least we learned
that $140 billion of the $1.25 billion the Fed advanced to buy agency debt
and MBS, got repaid. One question Ben: “How much did you pay for the
$140 billion that got repaid? Did you make a profit, or are you going to wait
until Ron Paul’s audit before you let us know how that went?.” I know I’ve
got a dirty mind, but I can’t help thinking that if Ben had made a profit on
that transaction, he would have been crowing about it. I loved this bit,
particularly the “Thus”:

Thus, our purchases of Treasury, agency debt, and agency

MBS likely both reduced the yields on those securities and
also pushed investors into holding other assets with similar
characteristics, such as credit risk and duration. For example,
some investors who sold MBS to the Fed may have replaced
them in their portfolios with longer-term, high-quality
corporate bonds, depressing the yields on those assets as
well.

Hmm…

1. Even Alan Greenspan and Larry Summers conceded that there is

absolutely nothing that the Fed can do to change long-term Treasury
yields. But, now Ben the Boy is saying that he can do that, he must
be Superman!
2. Good to see that Superman is also taking the credit for pushing
down yields on agency debt and toxic MBS. Obviously he is a
genius, the Maestro is re-incarnated, Err…but here is one little thing;
he’s the only guy buying that garbage.
3. Oh, and whoopee, Ben thinks that the “investors” (translate
deadbeat zombie banks), who sold him their (toxic) MBS, have all
rushed out to buy corporate bonds. I’m not quite sure what planet
he’s on. I thought they either kept the money on deposit with the
Fed, or bought Treasuries to repair their capital adequacy. Note the
“may”…as if he didn’t know!

But this was the kicker, admittedly hidden away between jargon-heaped on
jargon, but there all the same:

(Al those good things managed)... provide further support for

the economic recovery while maintaining price stability, the
Fed has also taken extraordinary measures to ease monetary
and financial conditions.

I especially love the part about “further” support. As if the banks are going
out and lending money to Main Street, as opposed to simply using their
free, Fed supplied, get-out-of-jail card to create an illusion of solvency
whilst they “extend and pretend”. Similar to what happened in Japan after
their bubble burst. The real gem, however, was the idea of “maintaining
price stability”. What that means is stopping assets prices (house prices,
commercial real estate, and to some extent stocks) from going down to
where they have to go, before market clearing can start. Funny how when
asset prices were bubbling through the roof, that was not considered
“inflationary” by the Fed and was not something to be concerned about.
But, when asset prices fall through the floor, that is considered deflationary
(or disinflationary), and is very bad. Ben looks to me suspiciously like a
greenhorn lost in the woods who used up all his ammo shooting at
shadows. And yet, there is the Big Bad Wolf of private sector deleveraging
faster than he can run the printing presses, (and more importantly, get that
money out into the real world) lurking round the corner.’

“This report examines the implications of what it would mean for the

Group (P2OG).

We’re Already In Recession [actually a depression] Harding ‘‘… look at

the trend. After an unusual four straight quarters of negative growth in the
severe 2008-2009 recession, the recession ended in the September quarter
of last year when GDP managed fragile growth of 1.6% for the quarter, and
then improved to 5.0% growth in the December quarter.It was understood
that much of that growth was temporary, fueled by government spending,
and spending by consumers provided with government bonuses and
rebates, as well as temporary rebuilding of inventories by businesses. But
it was expected that with that jumpstart the recovery could continue on its
own legs.So, it was a bit of a surprise when GDP growth slowed to 3.7% in
the March quarter of this year while those programs were still having an
influence. But economists still expected the economy would grow at a 3%
pace in the June quarter even with those programs winding down, and for
the rest of the year.So, it was a real disappointment when second quarter
growth was reported a month ago as having been only 2.4%. Plus, when
additional data became available for May and June, the last two months of
the second quarter, and those reports were increasingly negative,
economists predicted that Q2 GDP growth would be revised down to only
1.3%.On Friday, the revision was released, and it showed growth last
quarter slowed significantly, but only to 1.6%, not as bad as the latest
forecast.The media and the stock market, starving for good news–and with
the market short-term oversold after being down 10 of the previous 13
days–took it as a positive. But let’s get real.The issue is not whether
economists got their forecast right or wrong, but the degree to which
economic growth is slowing. And a trend of 5% growth in the December
quarter, followed by a 1.3% decline to 3.7% growth in the March quarter,
followed by a 2.1% decline to 1.6% growth in the March quarter is a chilling
rate of decline.Now factor in that economic reports so far for July and
August, the first two months of the third quarter, have been significantly
worse than those of May and June, and significantly worse than
economists’ forecasts, with the relapse pretty much across the board; in
the housing industry, manufacturing, retail sales, consumer and business
confidence, the decline in U.S. exports, and so on.It’s not a stretch then to
think that economic growth is declining by another increment of more than
1.6% this quarter, which would have it in negative territory, already in
recession.In his speech Friday morning at the annual economic
symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Fed Chairman Bernanke, while
saying he still expects the economy to grow in the second half “albeit at a
relatively modest pace” did not put forth a very convincing argument,
using such phrases as “painfully slow recovery in the labor market”. . .
“economic projections are inherently uncertain”. . . . “the economy is
vulnerable to unexpected developments” . . . “the recovery is less vigorous
than we expected.”Nor did he seem confident that the Fed’s depleted
arsenal of tools to re-stimulate the economy would be effective if needed.
Two of the four possible actions he mentioned seemed to suggest
consumers and markets could be fooled into confidence with mere talk.His
brief list of four possible actions were, “1) conducting additional purchases
of longer-term securities [bonds and mortgage-related securities]; 2)
modifying the Fed’s FOMC meeting communications to investors; 3)
reducing the interest the Fed pays banks on their excess reserves. And I
will also comment of a fourth strategy, proposed by several economists-
namely, that the Fed increase its inflation goals.”Providing details on two
of the four possible actions, he said, “The Fed’s current statement after its
FOMC meetings reflects the FOMC’s anticipation that exceptionally low
interest rates will be warranted ‘for an extended period’ . . . A step the
Committee could consider if conditions called for it, would be to modify the
language to communicate to investors that it anticipates keeping the target
for the federal funds rate low for a longer period of time.”As for the fourth
possible action in his list of four, he said the Fed could alter the phrases it
uses to communicate its goals for inflation by “increasing its medium-term
inflation goals above levels consistent with price stability.”That’s scary
stuff if those are two of the four actions the Fed sees as its best options to
re-stimulate the economy.Also of concern, in its report revising Q2 GDP
growth down to just 1.6%, the Commerce Department reported that
corporate earnings declined significantly in the second quarter, after-tax
earnings rising just 0.1%, compared to the gain of 11.4% in the first quarter.
Meanwhile, Wall Street continues to ratchet up its earnings estimates.On
the positive side, consumer spending, which accounts for 70% of the
economy, rose 2% in the second quarter, compared to 1.9% in the first
quarter. But the bad news is that the reports since, on consumer
confidence and retail sales in July and August, have been big
disappointments.Putting it all together, don’t be surprised if a couple of
months down the road we learn the economy was already in recession in
the current quarter.’

Is the U.S. Bankrupt? [YES!] (at Motley Fool) The Administrative Office of
the U.S. Courts recently reported that bankruptcy filings between April and
June hit a four-year high. Consumer bankruptcies rose 21 percent while
business bankruptcies increased eight percent. The list of corporate
bankruptcies over the last couple of years includes big names like Lehman
Brothers, Washington Mutual, and GM. And financial institutions like Bank
of America (NYSE: BAC), Citigroup (NYSE: C), Wells Fargo (NYSE: WFC)
received billions of dollars through the federal government's Troubled
Asset Relief Program. Should investors add the U.S. government to that list
of big name bankruptcies? I recently asked Boston University economics
professor Lawrence Kotlikoff, author of Jimmy Stewart is Dead: Ending the
World's Ongoing Financial Plague with Limited Purpose Banking.
Mac Greer: Larry, I noticed the headline or the title of a recent article that
you wrote, US is Bankrupt and We Don't Even Know It. So with that in mind,
what is your take on the economy these days?
Larry Kotlikoff: Well there is a lot of uncertainty, as rightfully there should
be. We have seen the financial sector implode basically because of the
systematic production and sale of trillions of dollars of fraudulent
securities under the cover of proprietary information, so nobody really had
the ability to look inside big companies like Bear Sterns or Merrill Lynch to
see exactly what they owned or owed. That problem remains today, even
with the passage of Dodd-Frank. There is no requirement that the financial
industry come clean with respect to what it is doing with our money, so
every major financial player says you can't see what we are doing because
we have the Midas touch. We are going to beat the market, and if we show
you, everybody will see our secret formula for making you a mint. As a
result, they have a great cover to produce fraudulent securities. And then
when there is a sniff of fraud, one can easily presume that everything they
are doing is fraudulent, which may not at all be the case. And then there is
a run against those institutions as we saw with Bear Sterns and Lehman
Brothers and all the other ones because of the perception that so much of
their holdings were fraudulent and that their reporting was fraudulent. And
of course the rating companies and the regulators and the boards of
directors and the members of Congress were all, in effect, in bed with each
other to achieve this result. I don't see anything that has fundamentally
changed, so that is one major area of fragility. We could have another
meltdown in the financial market tomorrow because as Dick Fuld [Lehman
former CEO] said, he claims that their balance sheet was just fine and that
this was all just a panic, it was not connected with any facts. Well, he said
that every institution on Wall Street --- Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS), JP
Morgan (NYSE: JPM) -- could have experienced the same thing. His
concern about this happening to other companies is well taken. So we have
a financial system that is set up to fail again, and we have a fiscal situation
which is a complete and dire mess. It could lead to a financial panic that
could lead to a much bigger meltdown of the financial system than we have
seen.
Greer: Is the U.S. bankrupt?
Kotlikoff: Bankruptcy means not being able to pay your future bills. If you
can't pay your current bills, your creditors are already after you so you
already are bankrupt. If you can't pay your future bills, that really is the
operational definition of going bankrupt or being bankrupt. The U.S.
government can't pay its future bills. These bills, in total, in present value,
exceed the revenues by $202 trillion. This is based on taking the data
projected by CBO (Congressional Budget Office) back on June 26 of this
year, when they put out their alternative fiscal scenario, which is their best
long-term projection of government spending, including servicing the
official debt, and government revenues. And if you present value the
differential between spending and revenues, including extrapolating
beyond their projection which is important to do, you get a fiscal gap of
$202 trillion. To come up with $202 trillion in present value, you'd have to
immediately and permanently double all taxes we have. You'd have to do it
immediately. We're talking here about running a 5% GDP surplus this year
instead of running a 9% deficit. So I don't see that happening. We have to
cut spending or we have to print money. Either way you're cutting
spending so either way you're, in effect, reining in spending promises. And
that suits my definition of bankruptcy. And I think there are ways of cutting
spending and getting our fiscal house in order but we need to engage in
radical surgery here and not putting on the band-aid that this
administration is so fond of.
Greer: One of our Motley Fool writers recently interviewed Euro Pacific
Capital President Peter Schiff. In 2006, he was predicting the economic
downturn, and he now says that we are, "In the early stages of a
depression now. It is going to be a horrific experience for average
Americans who are going to watch their standard of living plunge." Do you
agree?
Kotlikoff: Well, this has been a depression so far for millions of Americans.
It didn't have to happen. It is really man-made. We have the same physical
capital and human capital sitting here in place. We don't have to stay in a
depressed state. The problem is that things are not coordinated. We don't
have buyers optimistic about getting paid salaries and we don't have
sellers optimistic about being able to find buyers, so everybody is kind of
sitting on their hands. We can have some, a bunch of KISS's, which are
"keep it simple, stupid" solutions to our problems, and lots of people
throughout the country realize this, that we need to fix things
fundamentally. We can't do it with 2,000 page bills that make bureaucratic
structures that are basically clogging up our economic arteries, even more
bureaucratic…

Economy Caught in Depression, Not Recession: Rosenberg Positive gross

The US economy is in a 1930s-style Depression, Gluskin Sheff economist
David Rosenberg said Tuesday. Writing in his daily briefing to investors,
Rosenberg said the Great Depression also had its high points, with a series
of positive GDP reports and sharp stock market gains. But then as now,
those signs of recovery were unsustainable and only provided a false
sense of stability, said Rosenberg. Rosenberg calls current economic
conditions “a depression, and not just some garden-variety recession,”
and notes that any good news both during the initial 1929-33 recession and
the one that began in 2008 triggered “euphoric response.”

Op-Ed Columnist - The Third Depression - NYTimes.com Economic Policy:

Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman says the US is in the
"early stages of a third Great Depression. The Third Depression By
PAUL KRUGMAN Published: June 27, 2010 ‘Recessions are
common; depressions are rare. As far as I can tell, there were only
two eras in economic history that were widely described as
 “depressions” at the time: the years of deflation and instability that
followed the Panic of 1873 and the years of mass unemployment that
followed the financial crisis of 1929-31. Neither the Long Depression
of the 19th century nor the Great Depression of the 20th was an era
of nonstop decline — on the contrary, both included periods when
the economy grew. But these episodes of improvement were never
enough to undo the damage from the initial slump, and were
followed by relapses. We are now, I fear, in the early stages of a
third depression. It will probably look more like the Long Depression
than the much more severe Great Depression. But the cost — to the
world economy and, above all, to the millions of lives blighted by the
absence of jobs — will nonetheless be immense. And this third
depression will be primarily a failure of policy. Around the world —
most recently at last weekend’s deeply discouraging G-20 meeting —
governments are obsessing about inflation when the real threat is
deflation, preaching the need for belt-tightening when the real
problem is inadequate spending. In 2008 and 2009, it seemed as if we
might have learned from history. Unlike their predecessors, who
raised interest rates in the face of financial crisis, the current leaders
of the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank slashed rates
and moved to support credit markets. Unlike governments of the
past, which tried to balance budgets in the face of a plunging
economy, today’s governments allowed deficits to rise. And better
policies helped the world avoid complete collapse: the recession
brought on by the financial crisis arguably ended last summer. But
future historians will tell us that this wasn’t the end of the third
depression, just as the business upturn that began in 1933 wasn’t
the end of the Great Depression. After all, unemployment —
especially long-term unemployment — remains at levels that would
have been considered catastrophic not long ago, and shows no sign
of coming down rapidly. And both the United States and Europe are
well on their way toward Japan-style deflationary traps …’

concludes by saying this: “The policy of quantitative easing is likely to
force a large adjustment on the U.S. dollar because the Federal Reserve is
choosing to lay a heavier hand on the Treasury bond market than would
result from economic conditions alone,” he says. “The resulting shift in
interest rates and long-term inflation prospects combine to dramatically
reduce the attractiveness of the U.S. dollar. A significant and relatively
abrupt devaluation is then required, in an amount sufficient to set up
expectations of a U.S. dollar appreciation over time.” Special Offer: People

U.S. Financial System Still "Fundamentally Corrupt," Kotlikoff Says: Here's

How to Fix It ‘We have a "fundamentally corrupt financial system" and the
Dodd-Frank reform bill did nothing to change it, says Boston University
economics professor Laurence Kotlikoff. "Relatively little has changed
except there are going to be more federal regulators who are probably
going to miss major problems." At the core of the 2008 crisis was "the
production and sale of trillions of fundamentally fraudulent securities,"
Kotlikoff says, suggesting all levels of society participated in the fraud --
including homeowners. At the center of it all were financial intermediaries
(a.k.a. Wall Street) who packaged and sold "snake oil under the guise of
proprietary information" to limit or eliminate disclosure, and enabled by
corrupt rating agencies, regulators and elected officials, he says. In the
accompanying video, Kotlikoff explains how we can "make Wall Street safe
for Main Street." In short, we should transform all financial companies with
limited liability (banks, hedge funds, private equity firms and insurance
companies alike) into mutual funds, which the professor describes as "little
banks that have 100% capital requirements. " Notably, the big mutual fund
companies survived the "financial earthquake" of 2008-09 when the rest of
the financial system collapsed, Kotlikoff recalls. In late 2009, Kotlikoff and
Harvard's Niall Ferguson penned an op-ed for The FT describing a blueprint
for how to take moral hazard out of banking. Citing a speech by Bank of
England governor Mervyn King, Kotlikoff and Ferguson called for "limited
purpose banking" (LPB), that would "limit banks to their legitimate purpose
- financial intermediation and payment facilitation." Nine months later,
Kotlikoff remains convinced this "very simple reform" remains a much
better alternative than the financial reform bill hammered out in
Washington - with plenty of influence from Wall Street lobbyists. "We are
rebuilding [the system] out of straw rather than out of brick," Kotlikoff
says, suggesting his "LPB" proposal will ultimately be good for the
economy and provide a model for the rest of the world. "If we have a safe,
sound [financial] structure other countries will follow suit," he says.’

Gerald Ford appointed Bush to head-up the agency when the House
Select Committee on Assassinations was investigating CIA-FBI links
to the murders of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert
Kennedy. During Gerald Ford’s funeral in 2007, the elder Bush
attacked theories straying from the official version. “After a deluded
gunman assassinated President Kennedy, our nation turned to Gerald
Ford and a select handful of others to make sense of that madness,”
 said Bush. “And the conspiracy theorists can say what they will, but
the Warren Commission report will always have the final definitive say
on this tragic matter. Why? Because Jerry Ford put his name on it and
Jerry Ford’s word was always good.” After Adams told the FBI he
believed it was impossible for Oswald to have fired three shots with a
bolt-action rifle in seven-and-a-half seconds while taking aim through
a scope, he was warned by his superiors not to pursue his findings.
“Don, be careful what you say and how you say it,” an agent told him.
Mr. Adams’ assertions contribute to a huge body of evidence
revealing that Kennedy was not murdered by Oswald in the fashion
described by the government…’

Economy Caught in Depression, Not Recession: Rosenberg Positive gross

domestic product readings and other mildly hopeful signs are masking an

economist David Rosenberg said Tuesday. ‘Positive gross domestic

The US economy is in a 1930s-style Depression, Gluskin Sheff economist
David Rosenberg said Tuesday. Writing in his daily briefing to investors,
Rosenberg said the Great Depression also had its high points, with a series
of positive GDP reports and sharp stock market gains. But then as now,
those signs of recovery were unsustainable and only provided a false
sense of stability, said Rosenberg. Rosenberg calls current economic
conditions “a depression, and not just some garden-variety recession,”
and notes that any good news both during the initial 1929-33 recession and
the one that began in 2008 triggered “euphoric response.”

Op-Ed Columnist - The Third Depression - NYTimes.com Economic Policy:

Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman says the US is in the
"early stages of a third Great Depression. The Third Depression By
PAUL KRUGMAN Published: June 27, 2010 ‘Recessions are
common; depressions are rare. As far as I can tell, there were only
two eras in economic history that were widely described as
“depressions” at the time: the years of deflation and instability that
followed the Panic of 1873 and the years of mass unemployment that
followed the financial crisis of 1929-31. Neither the Long Depression
of the 19th century nor the Great Depression of the 20th was an era
of nonstop decline — on the contrary, both included periods when
the economy grew. But these episodes of improvement were never
enough to undo the damage from the initial slump, and were
followed by relapses. We are now, I fear, in the early stages of a
third depression. It will probably look more like the Long Depression
than the much more severe Great Depression. But the cost — to the
world economy and, above all, to the millions of lives blighted by the
absence of jobs — will nonetheless be immense. And this third
depression will be primarily a failure of policy. Around the world —
most recently at last weekend’s deeply discouraging G-20 meeting —
governments are obsessing about inflation when the real threat is
deflation, preaching the need for belt-tightening when the real
problem is inadequate spending. In 2008 and 2009, it seemed as if we
might have learned from history. Unlike their predecessors, who
raised interest rates in the face of financial crisis, the current leaders
of the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank slashed rates
and moved to support credit markets. Unlike governments of the
past, which tried to balance budgets in the face of a plunging
 economy, today’s governments allowed deficits to rise. And better
policies helped the world avoid complete collapse: the recession
brought on by the financial crisis arguably ended last summer. But
future historians will tell us that this wasn’t the end of the third
depression, just as the business upturn that began in 1933 wasn’t
the end of the Great Depression. After all, unemployment —
especially long-term unemployment — remains at levels that would
have been considered catastrophic not long ago, and shows no sign
of coming down rapidly. And both the United States and Europe are
well on their way toward Japan-style deflationary traps …’

says that more quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve is likely to
trigger “an abrupt collapse in the foreign exchange value of the U.S.
dollar”. Hussman offers something of a primer on exchange rates, and
concludes by saying this: “The policy of quantitative easing is likely to
force a large adjustment on the U.S. dollar because the Federal Reserve is
choosing to lay a heavier hand on the Treasury bond market than would
result from economic conditions alone,” he says. “The resulting shift in
interest rates and long-term inflation prospects combine to dramatically
reduce the attractiveness of the U.S. dollar. A significant and relatively
abrupt devaluation is then required, in an amount sufficient to set up
expectations of a U.S. dollar appreciation over time.” Special Offer: People

There’s no business like war business

By William Bowles

05/11/03: (Information Clearing House) There are so many connections

between the Bushes, the ‘Defence’ establishment, the global trade in arms,
that the mind boggles. That it barely gets a mention in the mainstream
media (except of course, to simply ‘report’ it) is a scandal of the grandest
proportions. But it only goes to show the power of big business and the
political class they have installed in both the US and the UK..

traveling instantly,” said Adams.

Group and BAE Systems, the major arms supplier to the UK, is part-owned
by Carlyle). Not only the connections beggar belief but the sheer hypocrisy
of the Bush government should put it in a new category in the Guinness
Book of Records! As you’ll see from just of a few of the links to information
on Carlyle below, their tentacles extend to many of the armed conflicts
going on in the world. There’s no business like war business!

I’ve presented them in no particular order, the common denominator is the

Bush family.

Hussman: Dollar Collapse Coming: In his latest market commentary, top
fund manager John Hussman continues to express a bearish view, and
says that more quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve is likely to
trigger “an abrupt collapse in the foreign exchange value of the U.S.
dollar”. Hussman offers something of a primer on exchange rates, and
concludes by saying this: “The policy of quantitative easing is likely to
force a large adjustment on the U.S. dollar because the Federal Reserve is
choosing to lay a heavier hand on the Treasury bond market than would
result from economic conditions alone,” he says. “The resulting shift in
interest rates and long-term inflation prospects combine to dramatically
reduce the attractiveness of the U.S. dollar. A significant and relatively
abrupt devaluation is then required, in an amount sufficient to set up
expectations of a U.S. dollar appreciation over time.” Special Offer: People

precious metals and foreign currencies. Hussman also says the U.S.

U.S. Financial System Still "Fundamentally Corrupt," Kotlikoff Says: Here's

How to Fix It ‘We have a "fundamentally corrupt financial system" and the
Dodd-Frank reform bill did nothing to change it, says Boston University
economics professor Laurence Kotlikoff. "Relatively little has changed
except there are going to be more federal regulators who are probably
going to miss major problems." At the core of the 2008 crisis was "the
production and sale of trillions of fundamentally fraudulent securities,"
Kotlikoff says, suggesting all levels of society participated in the fraud --
including homeowners. At the center of it all were financial intermediaries
(a.k.a. Wall Street) who packaged and sold "snake oil under the guise of
proprietary information" to limit or eliminate disclosure, and enabled by
corrupt rating agencies, regulators and elected officials, he says. In the
accompanying video, Kotlikoff explains how we can "make Wall Street safe
for Main Street." In short, we should transform all financial companies with
limited liability (banks, hedge funds, private equity firms and insurance
companies alike) into mutual funds, which the professor describes as "little
banks that have 100% capital requirements. " Notably, the big mutual fund
companies survived the "financial earthquake" of 2008-09 when the rest of
the financial system collapsed, Kotlikoff recalls. In late 2009, Kotlikoff and
Harvard's Niall Ferguson penned an op-ed for The FT describing a blueprint
for how to take moral hazard out of banking. Citing a speech by Bank of
England governor Mervyn King, Kotlikoff and Ferguson called for "limited
purpose banking" (LPB), that would "limit banks to their legitimate purpose
- financial intermediation and payment facilitation." Nine months later,
Kotlikoff remains convinced this "very simple reform" remains a much
better alternative than the financial reform bill hammered out in
Washington - with plenty of influence from Wall Street lobbyists. "We are
rebuilding [the system] out of straw rather than out of brick," Kotlikoff
says, suggesting his "LPB" proposal will ultimately be good for the
economy and provide a model for the rest of the world. "If we have a safe,
sound [financial] structure other countries will follow suit," he says.’

Former FBI Agent Reveals New Angle On Kennedy Assassination [bush,

typically, was involved up to his eyeballs, and ‘knuck’ (knucklehead
not-to-bright ford) the typical go along to get along. ]‘… Despite the
threat and possibility of a conspiracy to assassinate the president, the
FBI and Secret Service allowed Kennedy to travel to Dallas. “[They]
should have stopped the President from traveling instantly,” said
 Adams. “You thought I was kidding when I said he would be killed
from a window with a high powered rifle,” a “jubilant” Milteer” told the
informant following the murder. Adams points out that Milteer was in
Dallas on the day of the assassination and has a photograph to prove
it. In the photo, Milteer stands near the presidential limousine prior to
the shooting. Adams notes this fact was not mentioned in the Warren
Commission report. Other, more well-known personages were also
photographed in Dealy Plaza on that fateful day, in particular George
Bush Senior. The future CIA director and president was photographed
standing outside the Texas Book Depository building where it was
said Oswald single-handedly shot the president from the sixth floor.
Gerald Ford appointed Bush to head-up the agency when the House
Select Committee on Assassinations was investigating CIA-FBI links
to the murders of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert
Kennedy. During Gerald Ford’s funeral in 2007, the elder Bush
attacked theories straying from the official version. “After a deluded
gunman assassinated President Kennedy, our nation turned to Gerald
Ford and a select handful of others to make sense of that madness,”
said Bush. “And the conspiracy theorists can say what they will, but
the Warren Commission report will always have the final definitive say
on this tragic matter. Why? Because Jerry Ford put his name on it and
Jerry Ford’s word was always good.” After Adams told the FBI he
believed it was impossible for Oswald to have fired three shots with a
bolt-action rifle in seven-and-a-half seconds while taking aim through
a scope, he was warned by his superiors not to pursue his findings.
“Don, be careful what you say and how you say it,” an agent told him.
Mr. Adams’ assertions contribute to a huge body of evidence
revealing that Kennedy was not murdered by Oswald in the fashion
described by the government…’

The Fraud Of Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) (Feb. 24 ...
February 11, 2009
’Dear Senators and Congressmen:
Thank you for taking the time to review the documentation relevant
to the Constitutional legitimacy of the presidency Barack Obama.
There have been various problems with the vetting of Mr. Obama
throughout the campaign and the present. I’d like to take the
opportunity to highlight the most pertinent and alarming issues that
have been clearly revealed. I’m sure you will agree that this
information must be further investigated promptly before any
damage is done to the United States and its citizens beyond the
Constitutional compromises that currently exist. Most interesting,
though, is the fact that Mr. Obama has not simply ordered the
original vault copy of his birth certificate to be sealed and chosen to
retain three (3) law firms to defend the various cases spending a
reported $800,000 (of whose money?). If Mr. Obama has nothing to
hide, then why fight the more than 42 cases in federal courts alone
(according to Justia) and similar number in state courts of which the
merits are well-founded and substantiated through factual evidence,
state and federal statutes, and international laws? Main issue is that
the state of HI, according to statue 338 allows Foreign born
children of Hawaiian residents to obtain Hawaiian birth certificates
and obtain them based on a statement of one relative only. There is
plenty of evidence of Mr. Obama being born in Kenya and obtaining
his Hawaiian birth certificate based on a statement of his
 grandparent only, who simply didn’t want to deal with immigration
and not based on any records from any hospitals. Extensive
searches in the State of Hawaii showed no birthing records for his
mother [Stanley] Ann Dunham in any hospital in Hawaii. … I
request all of this information to be forwarded to the Senate Armed
Services Committee, Senate Finance Committee, Senate Judicial
Committee, Mr. Steven Whitlock, director of the whistle blower office
of the IRS, ICE, State Department, and FBI for further investigation.
Respectfully submitted,
Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq.’

BEAR MARKET MATH - JULY LOWS IN DANGER Simon Maierhofer, On

Friday August 20, 2010, 4:53 pm EDT ‘
1+1=2
2+2=4
The simplicity and accuracy of those calculations is undeniable. How about this
equation?
Fundamental Weakness + Technical Sell Signals + Overpriced Stocks = Lower
Stock Prices. This calculation also seems to be simple and accurate. Let's look at
some equations that don't make sense.
1+1=3 or Better Earnings = Higher Stock Prices Earnings season is over.
Most companies beat earnings but issued cautious forecasts. This is particularly
true of the tech (NYSEArca: XLK - News) and financial sectors (NYSEArca: XLF
- News). By large, profits are still driven by cost-cutting, not organic growth.
Retail sales, which make up about one third of the economy, continued to fall
after the second quarter ended. Additionally, the expectation that taxes will go up
might have moved some companies to pull some of next year's income into this
year. This can't be good for Q3 and Q4 profits. As the chart below shows,
positive earnings reports are not bullish for stocks, especially if future guidance is
weak.[chart]

2+2=5 or Weaker than Expected Economy = Rising Stock Prices On July 30,
the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) lowered the previous quarter's Gross
Domestic Product (GD) growth from an estimated 2.7% to 2.4%. But it didn't stop
there. The real GDP for all three previous years was revised as well. It was
lowered by 0.2% for 2007, it was lowered by 0.6% for 2008, and it was lowered
by 0.4% for 2009. In percentage terms, the real GDP for 2007 was revised down
from 2.5% growth to 2.3%. The 2008 decrease was lowered from 1.9% to 2.8%
and 2009 growth was revised up from a 0.1% to a 0.2% increase. In essence, the
BEA proved that the recession was (or is) much deeper than perceived and the
alleged recovery much weaker than previously reported. This comes as no
surprise, as the key sector of the financial debacle - real estate (NYSEArca: IYR -
News) - remains in a funk. The U.S. Census Bureau reported that the number of
vacant properties, including foreclosures, residences for sale, and vacation
homes, reached 18.9 million. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac continue to lose
money. Has anyone ever wondered how banks (NYSEArca: KBE - News) can
make money on the same kind of loans that pushed Fannie and Freddie to the
brink of ruin? Since bad real estate loans triggered the post 2007 economic
meltdown, how can the economy recover without real estate leading the way?

3+3=7 or Positive Analyst Estimates = Higher Stock Prices A recent

Associated Press article observed that 'analysts only seem to hit the mark with
their estimates in the strongest economic times (2003 - 2006).' Why? 'The
problem is that analysts get most of their information from the companies they
cover. Corporate managers have every incentive to stay positive for as long as
they can.' Is that true; as true as 1+1=2? On April 26, the day the S&P (SNP:
^GSPC) topped at 1,219, the Dow (DJI: ^DJI) at 11,258, the Nasdaq (Nasdaq:
^IXIC) at 2,535, Bloomberg reported the following: 'U.S. stocks cheapest since
1990 on analyst estimates.' Contrary to analyst estimates, the ETF Profit
Strategy Newsletter stated that 'the potential exists that Monday's high marked a
significant top.' Since April, the broad market (NYSEArca: TWM - News) dropped
as much as 17%. In March 2009, with the Dow below 7000 and the S&P below
700, analysts lowered their earnings forecasts from $113 in April 2008 to $40. On
March 2nd, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter sent out a Trend Change Alert
and recommended to buy long and leveraged long ETFs such as the Ultra
Financial (NYSEArca: UYG - News) and Ultra S&P 500 ProShares (NYSEArca:
SSO - News). If you care to know, analysts estimate that earnings for the S&P
500 will exceed their 2006 all-time high, in 2011. Based on that assumption,
stocks are cheap. How about that for flawed math?

4+4=9 or Technical Sell Signals = Higher Stock Prices The 200-day moving
average (MA) is one of the best-known technical indicators, as it provides
delineation between technically healthy and sick stocks. On May 20, the S&P
closed below the 200-day MA for the first time since late 2007. Every attempt to
rally and stay above it has since failed miserably. On July 2, the 50-day MA for
the S&P dropped below its 200-day MA for the first time since late 2007. The
same holds true for mid caps (NYSEArca: MDY - News), small caps (NYSEArca:
IWM - News) and nearly all individual sector indexes. For good reason, this is
called a Death Cross. Over the past ten years, the death cross has been
accurate 75% of the time, with a 19.72% average return on six winning trades
and 6.95% average return on two losing trades. In addition to the Death Cross,
there are two head and shoulders patterns, one in the making for over 10 years,
and the other has the breadth suggestive of a major meltdown (see September
ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter).

5+5=11 or Overvalued Stocks = Higher Prices As explained above, based on

overly optimistic earnings estimates, analysts believe that stocks are cheap.
Rather than basing a future outlook on estimates, it makes sense to use facts as
a foundation for any outlook. Why add an extra variable to what's already an
unpredictable market? Ask Yale Professor Robert Shiller, who's done extensive
research on the subject of valuations, and he'll tell you stocks are historically
overvalued based on the current P/E ratio. Compare today's P/E ratio with the
P/E ratio seen at major market bottoms, and you'll see that stocks are overvalued
by more than 50%. Another gauge that doesn't lie is dividend yields. A
company's dividends are a direct reflection of cash flow and financial health. The
current yield is 2.65% for the Dow and 2.05% for the S&P. Even value funds like
the iShares Russell 1000 Value (NYSEArca: IWD - News) yield only a measly
2.08%. Dividends are close to their all-time low set in 1999 (we know what
happened then). This means that companies are cash strapped or overvalued.
Looking at a long-term chart of dividend yields plotted against stock prices shows
clearly that markets don't bottom until dividends skyrocket. Just as ice doesn't
thaw unless the temperature moves above 32 degrees, the economy won't thaw
and show signs of life unless P/E ratios drop to, and dividend yields rise to, levels
seen at major market tops. The ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter includes a
detailed analysis of four valuation metrics, along with short-term target ranges for
stocks and the ultimate market bottom. Based on simple math and common
sense, the July lows are certainly in danger. But it doesn't stop there.’
DOES HISTORY REPEAT, RHYME OR JUST HAVE COINCIDENCES?
Lounsbury: ‘… Has anything of economic utility resulted? I have not found
it. And counter to the effect of the dot.com collapse, the credit bubble
collapse may not have stripped out some of the speculative income
excesses. Wall Street bonuses are back to pre-crisis levels and there has
been no "claw-back" of ill-gotten gains from the pirates who seized the
economic ship. In fact, the pirates are still in command of the ship and are
still under full sail. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! From my first Treasury
report:

… the problem was that our systems, especially in

finance and health care, are too heavily focused
on pay for transactions rather than pay for
outcomes. I didn’t have the presence of mind to
bring instant gratification into the discussion, but
that would have certainly made my thought
process clearer.

I don't think this created any waves, but I will continue to wail in the
wilderness about how compensation formulas contribute to and compound
the structural problems in our financial system. So, back to the earnings
chart that started this discussion. In view of what has been discussed here
I believe we will find that history, in this instance, will at least rhyme, if not
repeat exactly. Structural economic problems are sufficiently similar for the
two eras that I expect we will see some form of recurrence of events 5 and
6 [Depression] …’

DISMANTLING BULLISH ARGUMENTS Simon Maierhofer …

Bull Market Argument #1 - Stocks are Cheap Even though the economy is in
the worst shape since the Great Depression, economists at large believe that
stocks (NYSEArca: IVV - News) are cheap … We've previously analyzed the folly
of relying on projected earnings forecasts and therefore, will only pose two more
facts as food for thought before moving onto the next argument. Even if earnings
are positive the market can decline, as we've seen with the 9% and 17% declines
in January and May. Most of the earnings growth has been fueled by cost-
cutting, not organic growth. What does that tell us about the sustainability of
growth?
Bull Market Argument #2 - Cash on the Sidelines Cash on the sideline is
viewed as bullish because, theoretically, it can be used to buy stocks and drive
up prices. Some distinguish between corporate cash and retail cash on the
sidelines. Many forget that for every dollar in cash, there is a debt that has to be
repaid. According to the Federal Reserve, nonfinancial firms' debt totals $7.2
trillion, the highest level ever. As far as retail investors go, the current debt-
income ratio is at 126%. The pre-bubble average was around 70%. To get back
to the pre-bubble norm, about $6 trillion worth of debt would have to be
eliminated. Retail money in money market funds is currently around the same
level as it was in 2006/2007. Is that bullish?
Debunking the Bond Myth No doubt there's been a migration from investment
dollars out of stocks and into bonds and gold… Bonds - especially corporate high
yield bonds - could soon assume the role real estate had in 2006. Many thought
that real estate (NYSEArca: IYR - News) will always go up. As it turns out, real
estate prices can move in both directions, as can bond prices.
A Closer Look at Gold What about gold? … The previous cash level low was
recorded in August of 2007. We know what happened then. Rather than focusing
on the sideline cash, perhaps we should focus on the trillions of dollars still in the
market. More selling means lower prices.
'Stocks are Cheap' vs. Realistic Valuations Using projected earnings to
determine the markets real value is like counting chickens that have yet to hatch.
Things change, and as studies have shown, analysts and economist are usually
the last to discern that change. Market forecasting based on solid facts is tricky
enough, but basing forecasts on thin assumptions usually translates into financial
suicide… Stock market tops when P/E ratios are high, dividend yields are low
and mutual fund cash reserves are low. Over the past year, we have seen P/E
ratios at an all-time high, dividend yields close to their 1999 low, and mutual fund
cash levels at an all-time low. In addition, we have also seen investor optimism
soar to levels reminiscent of 2000 and 2007…

2. That the smaller of these numbers is greater than or equal to 69
(68.772 is 2.2% of 3126). This is not a rule but more like a checksum.
This condition is a function of the 2.2% of the total issues.
3. That the NYSE 10-Week moving average is rising.
4. That the McClellan Oscillator is negative on that same day.
 5. That new 52-Week Highs cannot be more than twice the new 52-Week

More Fuel For a Bigger Decline Simon Maierhofer, On Tuesday August 17,
2010, 4:18 pm EDT A French proverb states that a fault denied is committed
twice. Denial, as blissful as it is for the time being, does not serve as protection
against the inevitable.A perfect example of denial is the May 6 flash crash.
Neither Wall Street, the financial media, nor investors wanted to see the danger
of such a meltdown beforehand. After it happened, they were in denial about the
cause.

Denial is Bliss

The simple truth is that the market was ripe for a major correction. A few weeks
before the flash crash, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter noted the extremely
low CBOE Equity Put/Call Ratio and warned: 'It seems that only a minority of
equity positions are equipped with a put safety net. Once prices do fall and
investors do get afraid of incurring losses, the only option is to sell. Selling,
results in more selling. This negative feedback loop usually results in rapidly
falling prices.' As it turns out, there was no clumsy-fingered trader at fault for the
decline that reduced the Dow (DJI: ^DJI) by more than 1,000 points in one day. If
it had been a simple error, stocks wouldn't have fallen to new lows after the flash
crash. If it had been a simple error, the S&P (SNP: ^GSPC) and Nasdaq
(Nasdaq: ^IXIC) wouldn't still be trading below the flash crash close.

The Reality of Denial

But, that's the power of denial. Since the April 26 highs, the S&P has been
moving from lower highs to lower lows. On July 1, the S&P had arrived at 1,011.
The ensuing rally lifted the markets by nearly 10%, but failed to push the S&P
and Nasdaq above the July 21 highs. The July 21 highs failed to move above the
May 12 highs. The May 12 highs were significantly short of the April 26 highs.
Despite the obvious downtrend, investors get as excited about dead end
bounces as ever. This is not a bullish omen. In fact, according to the ETF Profit
Strategy Newsletter's technical analysis, the steepest leg of the decline is still
ahead. Before we look at more technical details, let's browse through some
fundamental factors that reflect the current state of denial:

Don't Worry About Bank Failures

111 banks were added to the FDIC's failed bank list thus far in 2010. At the same
time last year, only 76 banks had been shut down. According to an FDIC press
release, Metro Bank of Dade County had total assets of $442.3 million and total
deposits of $391.3 million. Assets outweigh liabilities by $51 million. That's good,
but apparently not accurate. According to the FDIC's press release, closing Metro
Bank will cost the FDIC $67.6 million. Why? Because an accounting trick allows
banks to artificially inflate their assets. The accounting trick allowed this small
bank to overstate its assets by about 25%. Other banks on the FDIC list
overstated their assets by more than 50%. Imagine the size of the problem,
considering that the four biggest banks (NYSEArca: KBE - News) of the country
have about $7.5 trillion in combined assets. We should also point out that none of
those losses technically affect earnings, at least not yet (for a detailed analysis
refer to the June issue of the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter).

Don't Worry About Falling Real Estate

The National Association of Home Builders reported that its monthly reading of
builder's sentiment about the housing market sank to 14, the lowest level since
March 2009. Unlike other economic indicators, this index is taken from builders
that have their finger on the pulse of Main Street and is forward looking. Despite
the rally in equities (NYSEArca: VTI - News) and real estate (NYSEArca: IYR -
News), homebuilders (NYSEArca: XHB - News) never really saw light at the end
of the tunnel.

Don't Worry About Foreclosures

According to RealtyTrac, more than 1 million American households are likely to

lose their homes to foreclosure this year. This is about 10 times as high as during
an average year. 25% of the U.S. household sector has a sub-600 FICO score.
Yet, Fannie Mae is offering financing to first-time buyers who only have a $1,000
down-payment. Nearly $150 billion have been spent to keep the doors of Fannie,
Freddie and company open. Does it make sense to artificially extend the life of a
patient destined to die? In the case of Fannie, politicians seem to think that
lending more money and ultimately creating more toxic assets will solve the
problems. Even a third grader understands the irony of that concept. Denial is
alive and well.

Don't Worry About Bankrupt States

States are in trouble. The bigger the state, the bigger the trouble it seems.
California has a $1.8 trillion economy. If CA was a country, its economy would be
the seventh biggest in the world, bigger than Russia. But, CA has no money.
CNN reports that as many as 200,000 state workers in CA could see their pay
scale slashed to minimum wage, if orders from the governor's office are followed.
You don't need to be one of the 200,000 to know that is bad. To go from state
salary to minimum wage is a huge drop.

Don't Worry About Falling Prices

Look around and you see a general downtrend develop: U.S. stocks (NYSEArca:
IWB - News), international stocks (NYSEArca: EFA - News) and emerging
market stocks (NYSEArca: EEM - News). The same applies to commodities
(NYSEArca: DBC - News), real estate prices (NYSEArca: RWR - News) and
consumer goods. The above-mentioned 'don't worries' all contribute to the
deflationary spiral (see image below for a visual). Unemployment remains high
because businesses have no pricing power. This leads to lower income, default
foreclosures, and ultimately even higher unemployment. Even Bernanke knows,
there is no easy fix to a deflationary cycle. Once engrained, it feeds on itself.
[chart]

Don't Worry About Death Crosses

A death cross is one of the most powerful technical indicators. It occurs when the
shorter simple moving average (SMA) crosses below the longer SMA. Over the
last few weeks we saw literally dozens of such death crosses. Most notable was
the S&P, Dow Jones and Nasdaq experiencing not only a death cross created by
the 50 and 200-day SMA, but also courtesy of the 10 and 40-week SMA. Despite
the rally from the July lows, the sell signal triggered by the various death crosses
remained active. The fact that the Dow Jones was the only major index to rally
above the June 21 highs provides an additional bearish non-confirmation. Over
the past ten years, the buy/sell action triggered by the SMA crosses has a
success rate of 75% - 100%. Winning trades outperformed losing trades by a
ratio of at least 3:1. In investing, those are not the kind of odds you want to bet
against. In other words, it's time to face reality and abandon denial. Leading up
to the April highs, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter noted a pinnacle of denial
which was reflected by investors' outright enthusiasm about stocks. At a time
when approximately 8 of 10 investment advisors and newsletter writers were
bullish on stocks, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter noted: 'The message
conveyed by the composite bullishness is unmistakably bearish. The pieces are
in place for a major decline.' Since April 26, the major indexes dropped as much
as 17%. Despite the recent rally, this seems to have been only the first
installment of a significant decline. This decline is now in progress. In fact, the
August issue of the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter explains the one chart-pattern
that explains why the next leg down will be strong and powerful. A British
Historian noted decades ago that a wise person does at once what a fool does at
last. Both do the same thing; only at different times. Will you get out of the
markets way in time, or too late?
Here’s a new piece of the dismally murky puzzle which belies a previous
raison d’etre for rally: Greek Bonds Slump As Austerity Backfires, Country
Enters “Death Spiral”, And The Violent End Game Approaches .
Previously, Walmart same store sales were actually down (overseas results
were up), and, think about it. Isn’t Walmart, as essentially an american
based sales agent of china products a ‘contrarian indicator’ for the the u.s.;
that is , hasn’t Walmart’s rise coincided with american main street’s
demise. Similarly, fraudulent wall street high frequency churn and earn
programmed trade scams among many other frauds as yet unprosecuted
has heralded the death knell for american business and the economy,
generally. Old news at best and, that ‘not bad as expected, better than
expected dog don’t hunt no more’! ‘YAHOO [BRIEFING.COM]: … Retailers
were also strong. As a group retailers climbed 1.8%. Discount retail giant
and Dow component Wal-Mart (WMT 51.02, +0.61) was a solid performer on
the back of in-line earnings and an improved forecast. Home improvement
retailer and fellow Dow component Home Depot (HD 28.31, +0.93) had a
more positive influence over retailers. It posted better-than-expected
earnings for the latest quarter, but issued a rather mixed forecast. A
smaller-than-expected increase in housing starts during July didn't do
anything to derail the stock this session. Housing starts for July increased
1.7% month-over-month to an annualized rate of 546,000 units, which is
less than the rate of 555,000 units that had been widely anticipated.
Building permits for July fell 3.1% month-over-month to an annualized rate
of 565,000, which is below the rate of 573,000 that had been expected…’
But, just a push of the computer programmed trade button and off we go,
reality / valuation / economics be damned. In real security analysis (very
simplified / summarized), as opposed to the continued frauds on wall
street, one must begin with the largest and most significant aggregate (a
simple word picture / analogy: ‘rising tide lifts all boats’). If you get this
right, the probabilities in your favor are substantially enhanced. From
there, you want leading industries, and leading companies within said
leading industries (again, larger aggregates then picks, to enhance
probabilities, not guarantees, in your favor). Your time frame, 1-3-5 yrs tops
for projections, (including income statement/EPS, balance sheet, and
applying an appropriate P/E – a detailed, multi-faceted approach beyond
what could be described in this summary); and, that’s all they are,
projections. Beyond that time frame, your guess. On fraudulent wall street,
every day, though already discounted in large part (6-8 mos, approx.), the
market spins, churns, and with lightning fast computerized high-frequency
trade programs commissions in huge volumes like no other time in
financial history when real valuation meant something, with no net
economic value added, but very lucrative to the frauds on wall street, which
ultimately is a net detriment to the economy / the nation /and other
industries as we’ve seen and as described elsewhere on this site and in
these posts http://albertpeia.com . Preposterously, they even sometimes
refer to seasonal factors as if hearing them for the first time and
‘explaining’ an up move (almost invariably already discounted). Today, they
shrugged off the deepening economic reality despite the election year
frothing / manipulations. This is a global depression. This is a secular bear
market in a global depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull
(s***) cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated
bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall
street frauds and insiders commission and sell into. This is a typical wall
street churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud as in prior crashes’.
This national decline, economic and otherwise, will not end until justice is
served and the wall street frauds et als are criminally prosecuted, jailed,
fined, and disgorgement imposed. ].

Are You Ready For How Bad It Will Get? Graham Summers | ‘There are
numerous components in the latest GDP number that are extremely
suspect. The vast majority of investors are going to be taken to the
cleaners. I realize this view is far from the consensus. Even those who are
in the bear camp aver that the Stimulus did in fact bring us out of recession
at least temporarily.

However, I would strongly contend that the recovery was in fact non-
existent for the following reasons:

1. The Government data used to validate the recovery (GPD,

unemployment, etc) is clearly massaged if not bordering on
outright propaganda

2. We are in fact in a depression and the “recovery” was

simply a bounce in economic activity taking place within the
context of a larger economy contraction

Regarding #1, every Government data point used in promoting the

“recovery” had some degree of fudging in it. Let’s consider GDP for
instance.
There are numerous devious tactics used to overstate GDP growth,
however, the most obvious gimmick the BLS uses is overstating GPD
growth in the present and then revising it lower in the subsequent
quarters.’

HOW TO BEAR MARKET PROOF YOUR PORFOLIO Simon Maierhofer, On

Friday August 13, 2010, ‘… The 22 trading days following the April 26
market highs erased eight months worth of gains. Bear markets move
much quicker than bull markets.

Rule #1: Better too Early than too Late

When preparing for a bear market (we'll discuss in a moment why we have
been preparing for a bear market), it is prudent to start early. Anyone who
sold their long positions as early as September last year would be in a
better position than the buy-and hold crowd that is still clinging to their
holdings.

Rule #2: Don't Trust Wall Street and the Media

By now, even the mainstream media is sensing that something might not
be quite right with the market's performance. However, there is still hope
that the second half of the year will get a lift from positive earning results.
Before you bet your money on that line of reasoning, consider the picture
the media painted days within the April 2010 market top.

April 19, 2010 'America is back - The remarkable tale of an economic

turnaround' – Newsweek
'Recovery tilting to V-shape as profits prompts growth revision' -
Bloomberg
April 25, 2010: 'U.S. stocks cheapest since 1990 on analyst estimates' –
Bloomberg
'Technical Analysts see room to roll' - Wall Street Journal

April 27, 2010 'Greece contagion fears unfounded' - Reuters

May 3, 2010: 'Manufacturing in U.S. grows at fastest pace since 2004 as

recovery gains traction' - Bloomberg

Over the past two and a half months, the S&P (NYSEArca: SPY - News) and
Dow (NYSEArca: DIA - News) have lost as much as 17%. A 20% loss is
considered the mark of a new bear market. In essence, we are only one bad
day away from the next bear. Of course, throughout the massive bear
market rally from the March 2009 lows, which the ETF Profit Strategy
Newsletter predicted via the March 2, 2009 Trend Change Alert, the
newsletter maintained that it was only a bear market trap which would fool
a majority of investors. On April 16 it stated that 'Most bulls have no clue
why they are bullish except for the fact that they feel the need to play the
momentum game. Sounds like 2000 and 2007 all over again. The message
conveyed by the composite bullishness is unmistakably bearish.'

Rule #3: Don't Underestimate Cash

In a period of falling prices, cash or cash equivalents like short term

Treasuries (NYSEArca: SHY - News) maintain your purchasing power -
long-term Treasuries (NYSEArca: TLT - News) are interest rate sensitive
and may move faster than you think. When stocks fall and you are able to
maintain your purchasing power, you are able to buy stocks at a discount.
In essence, cash offers a positive return in periods of falling prices.
Additionally, or alternatively, investors may choose to buy short or
leveraged short ETFs such as the Short S&P 500 ProShares
(NYSEArca: SH - News), UltraShort Russell 2000 ProShares
(NYSEArca: TWM - News) UltraShort S&P 500 ProShares
(NYSEArca: SDS - News), Short Financial ProShares (NYSEArca: SEF -
News), Direxion Daily Financial Bear 3x Shares (NYSEArca: FAZ - News)
and many more.

Rule #4: Don't Procrastinate

On May 14, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter predicted that the S&P
(NYSEArca: IVV - News) will fall through the important 1,040 resistance
level. Aside from a small cluster of resistances (one being round number
resistance), a break below 1,040 opened the door wide for significantly
lower prices. We mentioned above that we've been preparing for a
reemerging bear market even before the April highs. Why? Simply put,
stocks are overvalued. How can that be? One of the above headlines read
that U.S. stocks are cheapest since 1990, at least according to analyst
projections. The key word is projections. Analysts project operating
earnings for the S&P to clock in at $94.83 in 2011. This is higher than the
2007 peak of $91.47. That's right, despite record high unemployment, a
European (NYSEArca: VGK - News) debt crisis, a 17% U.S. market
correction, and all the other problems economists expect corporate profits
will exceed their 2007 all-time highs. Does that sound reasonable to you?
Keep in mind that projected earnings are just that - projected. They can and
will change. In fact, analysts have a reputation of following the trend. In
April 2008, analysts predicted earnings of $113. After cutting its forecast to
$53, Goldman Sachs cut its earnings forecast to $40 in March 2009. As we
know today, stocks rallied, and actual 2009 earnings came in at $56.87. The
list goes on, but the simple message is that analysts tend to be overly
optimistic before the fall and overly pessimistic before a rally. Right now
they are overly optimistic. The conclusion is easy.

Rule #5: Know who to Trust

Even when basing the current P/E ratio on overly optimistic estimates, it is
still far away from the P/E ratios seen at historic market bottoms. The same
holds true for dividend yields. A look at various valuation measures shows
that the market is overvalued by much more than just 10 or 20%. The ETF
Profit Strategy Newsletter provides a detailed analysis of four valuation
metrics with a near spotless track record of historic accuracy…’

No Exit, Stage Left or Right Peter shiff ‘… Those who fear a double dip
recession are justified in their concerns, but they are also missing the big
picture. The 2008 recession never ended. It was merely interrupted by
trillions of dollars of stimulus that purchased GDP “growth” with borrowed
money. But as the bills come due, GDP should now contract … After
decades of abuse, it’s time for the Fed to take make a dramatic exit,
because the US economy can’t take it anymore.’

President barack obama’s political dynasty already on life support, his

america / the social security system is, the nation and system would have
been wiped out by privatization debacle. Talk about too big to, but still
failed. It was a bad idea then, and though accusations may fly as to fear

secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as has
preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street frauds

AP Business Highlights ‘Jobs picture dims as unemployment claims rise

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The economy is looking bleaker as new applications
for jobless benefits rose last week to the highest level in almost six
months. It's a sign that hiring remains weak and employers may be going
back to cutting their staffs. Analysts say the increase suggests companies
won't be adding enough workers in August to lower the 9.5 percent
unemployment rate. First-time claims for jobless benefits edged up by
2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 484,000, the Labor Department said
Thursday. That's the highest total since February. Analysts had expected
claims to fall…’

Bearish Sentiment Falls to 14-Week Low [Talk about contrarian indicators!]

AAII – ‘Bullish sentiment rose 9.4 percentage points to 39.8% in the latest

individual investors expecting stock prices to rise over the next six months
is only at a two-week high. The historical average is 39%. Neutral
sentiment, expectations that stock prices will stay essentially flat over the
next six months, fell 1.3 percentage points to 30.1%. The historical average
is 31%. Bearish sentiment, expectations that stock prices will fall, dropped
8.1 percentage points to 30.1%. This is a 14-week low. The historical
average is 30%. The survey period, Thursday through Wednesday, needs to
be taken into consideration when looking at these results. Stock prices
were essentially flat through most of this week's survey period (with the
obvious exception of yesterday), giving some investors hope that a short-
term bottom had been established. Though there were big changes in
bullish and bearish sentiment, both optimism and pessimism are close to
their historical averages. As a result, I would argue that individual
investors' confidence in the market remains fragile…’

resident (instructor at the college gym where I worked out) to express
my surprise at the bloated (municipal, state) high-priced bureaucracy
which of course is not productive except as to higher taxes and which
is at the forefront in the city of Bell where the city manager was paid
nearly 900,000 annually (with benefits the package was an incredible
$1,500,000), and specifically mentioned the part-time typical
compensation of $100,000 and contracts to interested, even familial,
parties. Of course, no one has done this better than feinstein, albeit on
a more federal level and China contracts through her husband’s

Fed action signals new activism (Washington Post) [ Riiiiight! The activist
fed! That’s all we need. As if we needed more of what brought us to this
point! Certainly the fed’s role in the continuing and current financial crisis /
debacle cannot be ignored or disputed. Nothing like a hegelian
methodology to create the very problems for which they are called upon to
offer solutions, increasing their sense of importance, and concentrating
power thereby. (Think about it. It is really rather quite absurd that each
meeting time the financial markets hold their bated breath for these
incompetent boobs). Then there’s the cover-up with an opportunity for
enrichment of some, usually the tight-lipped yes-men then ever after and
forever bonded in what becomes tantamount to an almost fraternal link by
‘virtue’ of the crime thereby. No, I’m not saying their initial missteps were
necessarily badly intended, but the manipulations thereafter to obfuscate
their incompetence (senile greenspun, no-recession-helicopter-ben, etc.)
comes at a great price and is nothing less than tantamount to or just
outright crime. I’d abolish the fed without hesitation or compunction. After
all, at this point of decline and defacto bankruptcy of the nation you
certainly can’t point to success nor argue their indispensability. Then
there’s also the missing trillions, over-printing of fiat currency, and all that
sub rosa activity with the worthless fraudulent toxic paper which I believe
is being supplanted with ultimately hard currency to the great benefit of the
frauds and great detriment to the nation.]
ACCORDING TO TECHNICAL INDICATORS, MELTDOWN IS POSSIBLE
Simon Maierhofer A SOLID TRACK RECORD An analysis of the SMA
crossover buy/sell signals triggered for the S&P over the past 10 days
shows that six of the eight signals (75%) were correct. ..LAGGING BUT
ACCURATE Many dismiss the 200-day or other SMAs as lagging indicators.
Although an indicator may be lagging it doesn't mean it's incorrect or
should be dismissed… Even though a lagging indicator, the rain does
confirm that a storm is coming. A PRO-ACTIVE APPROACH You'd expect
Wall Street and the financial media to be the financial weather man and
warn you of upcoming storms. Unfortunately, that is not so. Leading up to
the April 2010 recovery highs, Wall Street and the media proclaimed the
skies are clear, 'sunny throughout the year' was their weather forecast.
Only after investors got drenched, did Wall Street recommend pulling out
the umbrella. Sure enough, as soon as the umbrellas came out, stocks
switched into rally mode and the sky cleared up. Unlike Wall Street, the ETF
Profit Strategy Newsletter warned of the brewing storm while it was still
sunny. On April 16, the newsletter warned that 'historically, there has rarely
been a more pronounced sell signal ... When consumers spend, they do so
with credit cards. Visa and Master Card both got hit with a death cross. It's
just a matter of time until the discretionary sector follows. WAIT, THERE IS
MORE …High copper prices are reflective of high demand and a humming
economy. Lower copper prices signal trouble ahead. On June 22, an
ominous death cross visited copper's chart. PUTTING THE ODDS IN YOUR
FAVOR Investing is a game of probabilities. While you always want to have
the odds in your favor, you never want to bet against the odds. Right now,
the odds are piling up on the bearish side of the ledger. Even though Wall
Street is saying that the sky has cleared up, 'meteorologists' with a better
track record are warning of the storm ahead. In fact, there is one rare chart
formation that strongly suggests the onset of a 2008-like decline, a
development that's certainly supported by the number of death crosses
spanning a variety of markets. The August issue of the ETF Profit Strategy
Newsletter includes a detailed short, mid and long-term forecast, along
with the one chart that tells the market's story and true bearish potential.

Stocks' Late Push: Some Optimism, Some Pessimism [Late push … as in a

constipated bowel movement … Come on! Another one of those push the
computer programmed trade button and off we go, reality / valuation /
economics be damned. In real security analysis (very simplified /
summarized), as opposed to the continued frauds on wall street, one must
begin with the largest and most significant aggregate (a simple word
picture / analogy: ‘rising tide lifts all boats’). If you get this right, the
probabilities in your favor are substantially enhanced. From there, you
want leading industries, and leading companies within said leading
industries (again, larger aggregates then picks, to enhance probabilities,
not guarantees, in your favor). Your time frame, 1-3-5 yrs tops for
projections, (including income statement/EPS, balance sheet, and applying
an appropriate P/E – a detailed, multi-faceted approach beyond what could
be described in this summary); and, that’s all they are, projections. Beyond
that time frame, your guess. On fraudulent wall street, every day, though
already discounted in large part (6-8 mos, approx.), the market spins,
churns, and with lightning fast computerized high-frequency trade
programs commissions in huge volumes like no other time in financial
history when real valuation meant something, with no net economic value
added, but very lucrative to the frauds on wall street, which ultimately is a
net detriment to the economy / the nation /and other industries as we’ve
seen and as described elsewhere on this site and in these posts

Marc Faber Questions if Dow Could Hit 1,000 In the August edition of the
‘The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report’ Marc Faber questions whether the Dow
could hit 1,000 as predicted by Robert Prechter, based on his interpretation
of Elliot Waves, Fibonacci numbers and socioeconomic trends. Prechter,
who has written 13 books on finance (external link), believes that the stock
market is historically overvalued in terms of dividends and earnings,
because of a “great rise in positive social mood.” But the mood changed in
2000 and the “trend toward negative social mood will lead to an economic
contraction,” according to Prechter. “Small bear markets lead to
recessions, big bear markets lead to depressions. The current bear market
will be the biggest in nearly 300 years, so the depression will be
correspondingly deep,” Prechter said.

Fed says some districts report slowing economy (Reuters)

Flaws of the European Stress Test … 'Bank stress test' became the magic
phrase. Nothing calms fear like a stress test that's labeled as rigorous. The
stress test raises a few very obvious questions: 1) Will it work? 2) Why was
it needed in addition to a $1 trillion aid package? 3) Is the stress test just a
gimmick to appease investors? The stress test is conducted by the
London-based Committee of European Banking Supervisors (CEBS).
Ironically, the test has ignored the majority of banks' holdings of sovereign
debt. Sovereign debt concerns by the so-called PIGS countries (Portugal,
Italy, Greece, and Spain) triggered the latest wave of financial problems.
Ignoring sovereign debt in the Euro stress test would be like ignoring toxic
real estate assets in the U.S. 10% Good - 90% Bad According to a Morgan
Stanley survey, European banks hold about 90% of their Greek government
bonds in their banking books and 10% in their trading books. The bonds in
the banking book are generally held until maturity, the bonds in the trading
book are traded more frequently. According to a document obtained by
Bloomberg, the stress test assumes a loss of 23.1% on Greek debt, 14% on
Portuguese bonds, 12.3% on Spanish debt, 4.7% on German debt, 10% on
U.K. debt, and 5.9% on French debt. However, the stress test only looks at
the bonds held in banks' trading books, which account for a mere 10% of
Greek bond holdings. Can that be called a stress test? Nouriel Roubini
says that 'the assumptions made about economic growth, about sovereign
risk are not realistic enough.' The fact that only seven banks failed the test
with a combined shortfall of $4.5 billion confirms the lax nature of the test.
… The U.S. Bank Stress Test - A Nice Façade A closer look under the hood
of the U.S. bank stress test, however, shows that there's not much
substance behind the facade either. It was determined that the 19 tested
U.S. banks need to increase their balance sheets by $75 billion to meet the
conditions of what's termed the 'worst case scenario.' To a large extent, the
$75 billion of additional capital was financially engineered. Banks didn't
have to actually raise $75 billion. They were able to change the label of
some of their assets on their balance sheets. The government supported
this practice via mandatory convertible preferred shares (detailed analysis
in May 2009 issue of the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter) …’

U.S. economy is slow growth and high unemployment. The S&P 500 is up
2.5% so far this morning on this 'good' news. Bernanke's congressional
testimony included the following statements (emphasis added by me):

"Most [FOMC] participants viewed uncertainty

about the outlook for growth and unemployment
as greater than normal, and the majority saw [at
the June Fed meeting] the risks to growth as
weighted to the downside."

"Financial conditions--though much improved

since the depth of the financial crisis--have
become less supportive of economic growth in
recent months."

"Many banks continue to have a large volume of

troubled loans on their books, and bank lending
standards remain tight. With credit demand weak
and with banks writing down problem credits,
bank loans outstanding have continued to
contract."

"After two years of job losses, private payrolls

expanded at an average of about 100,000 per
 month during the first half of this year, a pace
insufficient to reduce the unemployment rate
materially. In all likelihood, a significant amount of
time will be required to restore the nearly 8-1/2
million jobs that were lost over 2008 and 2009."…

Serious Analysis has given rise to a realistically mocking view of the

current fraud on wall street:

For Obama, some chances ahead (Washington Post) [ Come on! Wake up!
There are no chances ahead for wobama’s already failed presidency!
He knows it, the people know it, and even his most ardent blind
supporters know it. One too many b*** s*** stories and broken
(campaign) promises. Delivering a speech, albeit teleprompted, is a far
cry from delivering, which reality most have awaken to. He seems to
be incapable of even one original thought even as the wobamas seem
to take umbrage as they are dissed for self-created lack of
approbation ($500 sneakers, spain trip, fiddling while the nation
burns, etc.). What next? The race card? Even as his (in)justice
department had decided to ignore civil rights violations by blacks and
focus only on whites? No! wobama’s failed presidency is as done as

The Fraud Of Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) (Feb. 24 ...
February 11, 2009
’Dear Senators and Congressmen:
Thank you for taking the time to review the documentation relevant
to the Constitutional legitimacy of the presidency Barack Obama.
There have been various problems with the vetting of Mr. Obama
throughout the campaign and the present. I’d like to take the
opportunity to highlight the most pertinent and alarming issues that
have been clearly revealed. I’m sure you will agree that this
information must be further investigated promptly before any
damage is done to the United States and its citizens beyond the
Constitutional compromises that currently exist. Most interesting,
though, is the fact that Mr. Obama has not simply ordered the
original vault copy of his birth certificate to be sealed and chosen to
retain three (3) law firms to defend the various cases spending a
reported $800,000 (of whose money?). If Mr. Obama has nothing to
hide, then why fight the more than 42 cases in federal courts alone
(according to Justia) and similar number in state courts of which the
merits are well-founded and substantiated through factual evidence,
state and federal statutes, and international laws? Main issue is that
the state of HI, according to statue 338 allows Foreign born
 children of Hawaiian residents to obtain Hawaiian birth certificates
and obtain them based on a statement of one relative only. There is
plenty of evidence of Mr. Obama being born in Kenya and obtaining
his Hawaiian birth certificate based on a statement of his
grandparent only, who simply didn’t want to deal with immigration
and not based on any records from any hospitals. Extensive
searches in the State of Hawaii showed no birthing records for his
mother [Stanley] Ann Dunham in any hospital in Hawaii. … I
request all of this information to be forwarded to the Senate Armed
Services Committee, Senate Finance Committee, Senate Judicial
Committee, Mr. Steven Whitlock, director of the whistle blower office
of the IRS, ICE, State Department, and FBI for further investigation.
Respectfully submitted,
Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq.’

Bob Chapman | It’s just the same old, same old, business as usual in

China focuses on military might (Washington Post) [And the big difference
here (between them and defacto bankrupt america) is that ‘THEY CAN

sentiment-creating wars all over the place.] Nation is quickly modernizing

out that american non-strategy employing the Hegelian methodology
of creating problems that American firms can solve. Doomed to
failure, they eventually catch on. The bushes were famed for same but
wobama has foolishly been no slouch in this regard.

Afghans still see U.S. as bad guy (Washington Post ) [Riiiiight! Sounds like
a plan … winning hearts and minds throughout the world … great for
exports also as such ‘won hearts and minds’ just love to buy american.]
American, NATO forces retain blame for civilian deaths despite spike from
insurgent violence.

U.S. looks to replicate Iraq strategy, tactics (Washington Post ) [Oh right!
Stick with that winning plan that worked so swimmingly (as in
drowning, in ie., debt, death, regional if not wordly anti-american
sentiment, etc.)]. In Kandahar, U.S. military officials hope that a secure
green zone, similar to the area in Baghdad, will make it more difficult
for Taliban insurgents to mount attacks to key buildings in the Afghan
city.

succinctly summarized the issues but left many readers with a question:
What took you so long? For months, readers have contacted the

calls increased recently after competitors such as the New York Times and
the Associated Press wrote stories. Fox News and right-wing bloggers
have been pumping the story. Liberal bloggers have countered, accusing
them of trying to manufacture a scandal. But The Post has been virtually
silent. The story has its origins on Election Day in 2008, when two
members of the New Black Panther Party stood in front of a Philadelphia

AP Business Highlights ‘Jobs picture dims as unemployment claims rise
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The economy is looking bleaker as new applications
for jobless benefits rose last week to the highest level in almost six
months. It's a sign that hiring remains weak and employers may be going
back to cutting their staffs. Analysts say the increase suggests companies
won't be adding enough workers in August to lower the 9.5 percent
unemployment rate. First-time claims for jobless benefits edged up by
2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 484,000, the Labor Department said
Thursday. That's the highest total since February. Analysts had expected
claims to fall…’

Bearish Sentiment Falls to 14-Week Low [Talk about contrarian indicators!]

AAII – ‘Bullish sentiment rose 9.4 percentage points to 39.8% in the latest
AAII Sentiment Survey. Despite the size of the increase, the proportion of
individual investors expecting stock prices to rise over the next six months
is only at a two-week high. The historical average is 39%. Neutral
sentiment, expectations that stock prices will stay essentially flat over the
next six months, fell 1.3 percentage points to 30.1%. The historical average
is 31%. Bearish sentiment, expectations that stock prices will fall, dropped
8.1 percentage points to 30.1%. This is a 14-week low. The historical
average is 30%. The survey period, Thursday through Wednesday, needs to
be taken into consideration when looking at these results. Stock prices
were essentially flat through most of this week's survey period (with the
obvious exception of yesterday), giving some investors hope that a short-
term bottom had been established. Though there were big changes in
bullish and bearish sentiment, both optimism and pessimism are close to
their historical averages. As a result, I would argue that individual
investors' confidence in the market remains fragile…’

Cities, counties could slash 500,000 more jobs (Washington Post)
Could? I’d say must. Particularly when you factor in that this election
‘spurt’ leaving the nation even more bankrupt is illusory. I had
occasion some time ago in speaking with a long-time California
resident (instructor at the college gym where I worked out) to express
my surprise at the bloated (municipal, state) high-priced bureaucracy
which of course is not productive except as to higher taxes and which
 is at the forefront in the city of Bell where the city manager was paid
nearly 900,000 annually (with benefits the package was an incredible
$1,500,000), and specifically mentioned the part-time typical
compensation of $100,000 and contracts to interested, even familial,
parties. Of course, no one has done this better than feinstein, albeit on
a more federal level and China contracts through her husband’s
companies, as previousl set forth on this website. Drudgereport:

even capital hill math would be hard-pressed to justify $26 billion

/ local government jobs! After all, the nation is defacto bankrupt! ]

Bailouts benefited foreign firms (Washington Post) True enough! But, truth
be told, the fraud giving rise to the financial debacle was home grown
americana. Moreover, the remnants of same are still out there in the
trillions, now ‘marked to anything they so choose’, courtesy of a
complicit, albeit after the fact, congress. This is the point … rather
than as should have been the case of making the perps pay, the
bailouts / cover-ups by now enablers if not accomplices is ending
quite badly with much worse to come, and that includes those
european lightweights who have come into the fraudulent wall street
fold to theirs and the world’s economic and financial detriment.

anyway. However, I also must candidly admit I don’t frequent the
mainstream blather / propaganda that includes the ‘money-honeys’ (when
the messenger’s more important than the message, problems and
distortions are bound to follow) and their ilk, etc.. NBR’s about it and even
they have their pressures (I don’t consider the Washington Post
mainstream in the pejorative sense of the word, with a rich journalistic
history to back that up, all things considered) ]. Unexpectedly bad news

think the former Soviet Union would have done the same.]
Fed action signals new activism (Washington Post) [ Riiiiight! The activist
fed! That’s all we need. As if we needed more of what brought us to this
point! Certainly the fed’s role in the continuing and current financial crisis /
debacle cannot be ignored or disputed. Nothing like a hegelian
methodology to create the very problems for which they are called upon to
offer solutions, increasing their sense of importance, and concentrating
power thereby. (Think about it. It is really rather quite absurd that each
meeting time the financial markets hold their bated breath for these
incompetent boobs). Then there’s the cover-up with an opportunity for
enrichment of some, usually the tight-lipped yes-men then ever after and
forever bonded in what becomes tantamount to an almost fraternal link by
‘virtue’ of the crime thereby. No, I’m not saying their initial missteps were
necessarily badly intended, but the manipulations thereafter to obfuscate
their incompetence (senile greenspun, no-recession-helicopter-ben, etc.)
comes at a great price and is nothing less than tantamount to or just
outright crime. I’d abolish the fed without hesitation or compunction. After
all, at this point of decline and defacto bankruptcy of the nation you
certainly can’t point to success nor argue their indispensability. Then
there’s also the missing trillions, over-printing of fiat currency, and all that
sub rosa activity with the worthless fraudulent toxic paper which I believe
is being supplanted with ultimately hard currency to the great benefit of the
frauds and great detriment to the nation.]

ACCORDING TO TECHNICAL INDICATORS, MELTDOWN IS POSSIBLE

Simon Maierhofer A SOLID TRACK RECORD An analysis of the SMA
crossover buy/sell signals triggered for the S&P over the past 10 days
shows that six of the eight signals (75%) were correct. ..LAGGING BUT
ACCURATE Many dismiss the 200-day or other SMAs as lagging indicators.
Although an indicator may be lagging it doesn't mean it's incorrect or
should be dismissed… Even though a lagging indicator, the rain does
confirm that a storm is coming. A PRO-ACTIVE APPROACH You'd expect
Wall Street and the financial media to be the financial weather man and
warn you of upcoming storms. Unfortunately, that is not so. Leading up to
the April 2010 recovery highs, Wall Street and the media proclaimed the
skies are clear, 'sunny throughout the year' was their weather forecast.
Only after investors got drenched, did Wall Street recommend pulling out
the umbrella. Sure enough, as soon as the umbrellas came out, stocks
switched into rally mode and the sky cleared up. Unlike Wall Street, the ETF
Profit Strategy Newsletter warned of the brewing storm while it was still
sunny. On April 16, the newsletter warned that 'historically, there has rarely
been a more pronounced sell signal ... When consumers spend, they do so
with credit cards. Visa and Master Card both got hit with a death cross. It's
just a matter of time until the discretionary sector follows. WAIT, THERE IS
MORE …High copper prices are reflective of high demand and a humming
economy. Lower copper prices signal trouble ahead. On June 22, an
ominous death cross visited copper's chart. PUTTING THE ODDS IN YOUR
FAVOR Investing is a game of probabilities. While you always want to have
the odds in your favor, you never want to bet against the odds. Right now,
the odds are piling up on the bearish side of the ledger. Even though Wall
Street is saying that the sky has cleared up, 'meteorologists' with a better
track record are warning of the storm ahead. In fact, there is one rare chart
formation that strongly suggests the onset of a 2008-like decline, a
development that's certainly supported by the number of death crosses
spanning a variety of markets. The August issue of the ETF Profit Strategy
Newsletter includes a detailed short, mid and long-term forecast, along
with the one chart that tells the market's story and true bearish potential.

already discounted in large part (6-8 mos, approx.), the market spins,
churns, and with lightning fast computerized high-frequency trade
programs commissions in huge volumes like no other time in financial
history when real valuation meant something, with no net economic value

net detriment to the economy / the nation /and other industries as we’ve
seen and as described elsewhere on this site and in these posts
http://albertpeia.com . Preposterously, they even sometimes refer to
seasonal factors as if hearing them for the first time and ‘explaining’ an up
move (almost invariably already discounted). Today, they shrugged off the
deepening economic reality despite the election year frothing /
manipulations. This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in
a global depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***) cycle
in a secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as
has preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street
frauds and insiders commission and sell into. This is a typical wall street
churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud as in prior crashes’. This
national decline, economic and otherwise, will not end until justice is
served and the wall street frauds et als are criminally prosecuted, jailed,
fined, and disgorgement imposed. ].

Marc Faber Questions if Dow Could Hit 1,000 In the August edition of the
‘The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report’ Marc Faber questions whether the Dow
could hit 1,000 as predicted by Robert Prechter, based on his interpretation
of Elliot Waves, Fibonacci numbers and socioeconomic trends. Prechter,
who has written 13 books on finance (external link), believes that the stock
market is historically overvalued in terms of dividends and earnings,
because of a “great rise in positive social mood.” But the mood changed in
2000 and the “trend toward negative social mood will lead to an economic
contraction,” according to Prechter. “Small bear markets lead to
recessions, big bear markets lead to depressions. The current bear market
will be the biggest in nearly 300 years, so the depression will be
correspondingly deep,” Prechter said.

Flaws of the European Stress Test … 'Bank stress test' became the magic
phrase. Nothing calms fear like a stress test that's labeled as rigorous. The
stress test raises a few very obvious questions: 1) Will it work? 2) Why was
it needed in addition to a $1 trillion aid package? 3) Is the stress test just a
gimmick to appease investors? The stress test is conducted by the
London-based Committee of European Banking Supervisors (CEBS).
Ironically, the test has ignored the majority of banks' holdings of sovereign
debt. Sovereign debt concerns by the so-called PIGS countries (Portugal,
Italy, Greece, and Spain) triggered the latest wave of financial problems.
Ignoring sovereign debt in the Euro stress test would be like ignoring toxic
real estate assets in the U.S. 10% Good - 90% Bad According to a Morgan
Stanley survey, European banks hold about 90% of their Greek government
bonds in their banking books and 10% in their trading books. The bonds in
the banking book are generally held until maturity, the bonds in the trading
book are traded more frequently. According to a document obtained by
Bloomberg, the stress test assumes a loss of 23.1% on Greek debt, 14% on
Portuguese bonds, 12.3% on Spanish debt, 4.7% on German debt, 10% on
U.K. debt, and 5.9% on French debt. However, the stress test only looks at
the bonds held in banks' trading books, which account for a mere 10% of
Greek bond holdings. Can that be called a stress test? Nouriel Roubini
says that 'the assumptions made about economic growth, about sovereign
risk are not realistic enough.' The fact that only seven banks failed the test
with a combined shortfall of $4.5 billion confirms the lax nature of the test.
… The U.S. Bank Stress Test - A Nice Façade A closer look under the hood
of the U.S. bank stress test, however, shows that there's not much
substance behind the facade either. It was determined that the 19 tested
U.S. banks need to increase their balance sheets by $75 billion to meet the
conditions of what's termed the 'worst case scenario.' To a large extent, the
$75 billion of additional capital was financially engineered. Banks didn't
have to actually raise $75 billion. They were able to change the label of
some of their assets on their balance sheets. The government supported
this practice via mandatory convertible preferred shares (detailed analysis
in May 2009 issue of the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter) …’

(No recession helicopter ben) Bernanke Admits Major Policy Failures;

Stocks Soar Darryl Montgomery What's wrong with this picture? In his bi-
annual testimony before Congress yesterday, Fed Chair Ben Bernanke
admitted that after more than a year and a half of zero interest rates and $3
trillion in federal deficit spending since 2008, the best case scenario for the
U.S. economy is slow growth and high unemployment. The S&P 500 is up
2.5% so far this morning on this 'good' news. Bernanke's congressional
testimony included the following statements (emphasis added by me):

"Most [FOMC] participants viewed uncertainty

about the outlook for growth and unemployment
as greater than normal, and the majority saw [at
the June Fed meeting] the risks to growth as
weighted to the downside."

"Financial conditions--though much improved

since the depth of the financial crisis--have
become less supportive of economic growth in
recent months."

"Many banks continue to have a large volume of

troubled loans on their books, and bank lending
standards remain tight. With credit demand weak
and with banks writing down problem credits,
bank loans outstanding have continued to
contract."
 "After two years of job losses, private payrolls
expanded at an average of about 100,000 per
month during the first half of this year, a pace
insufficient to reduce the unemployment rate
materially. In all likelihood, a significant amount of
time will be required to restore the nearly 8-1/2
million jobs that were lost over 2008 and 2009."…

Just being there and every day they’re there is unequivocally abject

Heidi Montag files for divorce (Washington Post ) I usually don’t weigh
in on entertainment news, but this headline concerning what appears
to be a disparaging, and quite selectively so, purported biography of
Angelina Jolie is very disheartening when you consider the numerous
instances of failed leadership at nearly all very high levels of
government having so detrimental an impact on the world, that
morton deems his time appropriate to an actress who has actually
tried to do good things (U.N., etc.) without having to. Indeed, even her
latest film ‘Salt’ (spectacular by any standard as is her performance –
there are at least 2 winning sequels there with 4 the max and
stretching it owing to age – she puts all, and I mean all the ‘Bonds’ to
shame) had an important message in terms of the damage to this
nation by a seemingly endless, nation-bankrupting, anti-american (war
criminal israelis already, and quite correctly, globally hated) sentiment
producing war strategy that is neither strategy nor reasonably
consistent with any positive american goal / objective; but rather is
such a debacle and folly that the same could very well be one that
only an enemy of defacto bankrupt america could hatch and for the
reasoning set forth in the well-written / directed film. She astutely
observed and talked about the synchronicity of the film as juxtaposed
to recent events revealing that she is wiser than most in Washington.

occasion some time ago in speaking with a long-time California
resident (instructor at the college gym where I worked out) to express
my surprise at the bloated (municipal, state) high-priced bureaucracy
which of course is not productive except as to higher taxes and which
is at the forefront in the city of Bell where the city manager was paid
nearly $900,000 annually (with benefits the package was an incredible
$1,500,000), and specifically mentioned the part-time typical
compensation of $100,000 and contracts to interested, even familial,
parties. Of course, no one has done this better than feinstein, albeit on
a more federal level and China contracts through her husband’s
companies, as previously set forth on this website. Drudgereport:

methodology to create the very problems for which they are called upon to
offer solutions, increasing their sense of importance, and concentrating
power thereby. (Think about it. It is really rather quite absurd that each
meeting time the financial markets hold their bated breath for these
incompetent boobs). Then there’s the cover-up with an opportunity for
enrichment of some, usually the tight-lipped yes-men then ever after and
forever bonded in what becomes tantamount to an almost fraternal link by
‘virtue’ of the crime thereby. No, I’m not saying their initial missteps were
necessarily badly intended, but the manipulations thereafter to obfuscate
their incompetence (senile greenspun, no-recession-helicopter-ben, etc.)
comes at a great price and is nothing less than tantamount to or just
outright crime. I’d abolish the fed without hesitation or compunction. After
all, at this point of decline and defacto bankruptcy of the nation you
certainly can’t point to success nor argue their indispensability. Then
there’s also the missing trillions, over-printing of fiat currency, and all that
sub rosa activity with the worthless fraudulent toxic paper which I believe
is being supplanted with ultimately hard currency to the great benefit of the

Stocks' Late Push: Some Optimism, Some Pessimism [Late push … as in a

constipated bowel movement … Come on! Another one of those push the
computer programmed trade button and off we go, reality / valuation /
economics be damned. In real security analysis (very simplified /
summarized), as opposed to the continued frauds on wall street, one must
begin with the largest and most significant aggregate (a simple word
picture / analogy: ‘rising tide lifts all boats’). If you get this right, the
probabilities in your favor are substantially enhanced. From there, you
want leading industries, and leading companies within said leading
industries (again, larger aggregates then picks, to enhance probabilities,
not guarantees, in your favor). Your time frame, 1-3-5 yrs tops for
projections, (including income statement/EPS, balance sheet, and applying
an appropriate P/E – a detailed, multi-faceted approach beyond what could
be described in this summary); and, that’s all they are, projections. Beyond
that time frame, your guess. On fraudulent wall street, every day, though
already discounted in large part (6-8 mos, approx.), the market spins,
churns, and with lightning fast computerized high-frequency trade
programs commissions in huge volumes like no other time in financial
history when real valuation meant something, with no net economic value
added, but very lucrative to the frauds on wall street, which ultimately is a
net detriment to the economy / the nation /and other industries as we’ve
seen and as described elsewhere on this site and in these posts

Marc Faber Questions if Dow Could Hit 1,000 In the August edition of the
‘The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report’ Marc Faber questions whether the Dow
could hit 1,000 as predicted by Robert Prechter, based on his interpretation
of Elliot Waves, Fibonacci numbers and socioeconomic trends. Prechter,
who has written 13 books on finance (external link), believes that the stock
market is historically overvalued in terms of dividends and earnings,
because of a “great rise in positive social mood.” But the mood changed in
2000 and the “trend toward negative social mood will lead to an economic
contraction,” according to Prechter. “Small bear markets lead to
recessions, big bear markets lead to depressions. The current bear market
will be the biggest in nearly 300 years, so the depression will be
correspondingly deep,” Prechter said.

phrase. Nothing calms fear like a stress test that's labeled as rigorous. The
stress test raises a few very obvious questions: 1) Will it work? 2) Why was
it needed in addition to a $1 trillion aid package? 3) Is the stress test just a
gimmick to appease investors? The stress test is conducted by the
London-based Committee of European Banking Supervisors (CEBS).
Ironically, the test has ignored the majority of banks' holdings of sovereign
debt. Sovereign debt concerns by the so-called PIGS countries (Portugal,
Italy, Greece, and Spain) triggered the latest wave of financial problems.
Ignoring sovereign debt in the Euro stress test would be like ignoring toxic
real estate assets in the U.S. 10% Good - 90% Bad According to a Morgan
Stanley survey, European banks hold about 90% of their Greek government
bonds in their banking books and 10% in their trading books. The bonds in
the banking book are generally held until maturity, the bonds in the trading
book are traded more frequently. According to a document obtained by
Bloomberg, the stress test assumes a loss of 23.1% on Greek debt, 14% on
Portuguese bonds, 12.3% on Spanish debt, 4.7% on German debt, 10% on
U.K. debt, and 5.9% on French debt. However, the stress test only looks at
the bonds held in banks' trading books, which account for a mere 10% of
Greek bond holdings. Can that be called a stress test? Nouriel Roubini
says that 'the assumptions made about economic growth, about sovereign
risk are not realistic enough.' The fact that only seven banks failed the test
with a combined shortfall of $4.5 billion confirms the lax nature of the test.
… The U.S. Bank Stress Test - A Nice Façade A closer look under the hood
of the U.S. bank stress test, however, shows that there's not much
substance behind the facade either. It was determined that the 19 tested
U.S. banks need to increase their balance sheets by $75 billion to meet the
conditions of what's termed the 'worst case scenario.' To a large extent, the
$75 billion of additional capital was financially engineered. Banks didn't
have to actually raise $75 billion. They were able to change the label of
some of their assets on their balance sheets. The government supported
this practice via mandatory convertible preferred shares (detailed analysis
in May 2009 issue of the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter) …’

(No recession helicopter ben) Bernanke Admits Major Policy Failures;

Stocks Soar Darryl Montgomery What's wrong with this picture? In his bi-
annual testimony before Congress yesterday, Fed Chair Ben Bernanke
admitted that after more than a year and a half of zero interest rates and $3
trillion in federal deficit spending since 2008, the best case scenario for the
U.S. economy is slow growth and high unemployment. The S&P 500 is up
2.5% so far this morning on this 'good' news. Bernanke's congressional
testimony included the following statements (emphasis added by me):

"Most [FOMC] participants viewed uncertainty

about the outlook for growth and unemployment
as greater than normal, and the majority saw [at
the June Fed meeting] the risks to growth as
weighted to the downside."

"Financial conditions--though much improved

since the depth of the financial crisis--have
become less supportive of economic growth in
recent months."
 "Many banks continue to have a large volume of
troubled loans on their books, and bank lending
standards remain tight. With credit demand weak
and with banks writing down problem credits,
bank loans outstanding have continued to
contract."

"After two years of job losses, private payrolls

expanded at an average of about 100,000 per
month during the first half of this year, a pace
insufficient to reduce the unemployment rate
materially. In all likelihood, a significant amount of
time will be required to restore the nearly 8-1/2
million jobs that were lost over 2008 and 2009."…

preposterous market action this day. Even before reading same I was going
to comment here that I believed that the decision to ‘mouse click / button

previous session. Remember, these are desperate criminally insane frauds
on wall street who really try very hard to get people to by into their paper-
churning high-frequency trade / commission scam for which ultimately
potentially productive money is siphoned off / drained from the economy
into their pockets which is a net negative in real economic terms. They
know all the tricks, technical trendlines, moving averages, etc., to suck
them in: Buy Program Express Lifts Markets: Dave's Daily - The economic
news from the unemployment report could not be worse and an old pattern
was repeated -- higher volume on a selloff followed by an engineered "stick
save" into the close. It used to be hard to make this stuff up, now it's
becoming routine. As noted yesterday, bulls might like bad data since
they'd expect another round of quantitative easing (QE2) from the Fed and
a politically desperate administration. This means more liquidity baby and
an opportunity to lift stocks to new highs. That's the thinking from bizzaro-
land. So we get another big intraday 150 point swing in the DJIA as the
"2:15 PM Buy Program Express" hits the tape on time as volume starts to
dry up. That's why the caution sign advises to stay away from the Program
Trading Express. Nevertheless, volume increased Friday with most of that
coming early and often. Breadth was negative but not overwhelmingly so.

In devising punishments, SEC faced with competing interests (Washington

fraudulent means (remember, the bad paper is still out there but I
believe slowly but surely and very selectively being supplanted by

almost no workers and still make a similar percentage profit by selling
the repackaged foreign product here (in other words something akin to

negative). The reference to Orwellian, though in other context, if only

WASHPOST TAKES ON THE SPOOKS: Hidden world, growing beyond

control...
854,000 people have top-secret security clearance...
You really have to laud The Washington Post for this investigative
brilliance which whether people appreciate it or not, requires great
corporate and personal courage; even more so inasmuch as this is
their backyard, so to speak. Clearly, this illuminates the boondoggles
which amazingly are coming at a time when america will not be able to
handle ‘bare necessities’ much less the self-perpetuating, need-
creating, bureaucracies which I’ve previously likened to a perverse
version of ‘Field of Dreams’ where if you will commit taxpayer dollars,
they’ll find / create a war, conflict, new war, etc., to spend it on.
NSA Has Gotten So Big, Area Around It Has 112 Acres Of Parking

spying operation has become.

levels which Shiller’s concedes are for the moment stabilized but

consumers / populace have finally got something right.

Chiefs' compensation (Washington Post) The foregoing list, though only

oil, reveals an inherent american inclination toward thievery which
also explains the wall street debacle. Only the exceptionally few well-
managed american companies have ceo’s deserving of exceptional
pay packages / compensation and I think you’ll find in said companies
compensation commensurate with results. american ceo’s generally,
and global results (and comparisons) bear this out, are overpaid.

Oracle CEO tops list of highest paid execs with $1.8 billion (Washington
Post) Don’t just focus on him; american ceo’s generally, and global
results (and comparisons) bear this out, are overpaid.

D.C. area housing market a bright spot (Washington Post) Clearly a

contrarian indicator which means more in Washington doing nation’s
business; clearly a bad thing (more doing less, creating more
problems than solving, costing more for less, etc.).

Why Bernanke isn't advocating fiscal stimulus (Washington Post) I would

be inclined to say the obvious; that you can’t spend what you don’t
have; but, we all know that’s not true. Indeed, that’s become a
significant part of the problem and america’s defacto bankrupt status
a testament to that reality. Then there’s the over-printing of an ever
more worthless fiat currency which continues as ‘we speak’; and,
there are limits to that too as the dire results of same ultimately begin
to unfold.

Cities, counties could slash 500,000 more jobs (Washington Post) Could?
I’d say must. Particularly when you factor in that this election ‘spurt’
leaving the nation even more bankrupt is illusory. I had occasion
some time ago in speaking with a long-time California resident
(instructor at the college gym where I worked out) to express my
surprise at the bloated (municipal, state) high-priced bureaucracy
which of course is not productive except as to higher taxes and which
 is at the forefront in the city of Bell where the city manager was paid
nearly 900,000 annually, and specifically mentioned the part-time
typical compensation of $100,000 and contracts to interested, even
familial, parties. Of course, no one has done this better than feinstein,
albeit on a more federal level and China contracts through her
husband’s companies, as previousl set forth on this website.

US bank failures in 2010 surpass 100 WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. bank

failures this year have surpassed a bleak milestone of 100 as regulators
shut down banks in Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Kansas, Nevada and
Minnesota. The six bank seizures announced Friday bring to 102 the
failures so far in 2010. The pace of bank closures this year is well ahead of
that of last year, which saw a total 140 bank shuttered amid the recession
and mounting loan defaults …

'Systemic risk' and preventing the next bubble (Washington Post) Come
on! We’re in the next bubble; or, should I say in the same bubble
inasmuch as the so-called ‘last bubble’ never totally deflated owing to
overactive Weimar dollar (now european) printing presses, fraudulent
mark to anything accounting among other manipulations, etc.; and a
less elastic (ready to burst) one at that.

This is quite incredible. The wobama market … based on b*** s*** alone.
Yes, there’s a waning full moon. Yes, this is an election year and we’ve
seen frothing, false data / reports before. But come on! This is downright
ridiculous. I had occasion to hear from a so-called money manager on what
used to be a balanced business / finance radio program (I seldom listen to
said program anymore, truth be told, but owing to a scheduling quirk
caught same this day) say that all the economic / business news last week
was good. In point of fact, the actual news was all bad (except for some
sporadic earnings reports that were discounted many months ago). What
parallel universe are these foisty feisty frauds living in? Again, waning full
moon Then the infamous federal but not really federal, express in only a
month (with blazing full moon) changed downward guidance to upward
guidance and based on b*** s***, and voila … another full moon rally (oh
yeah, the percentage up from low level housing still low). Are the 30 day
lunar cycles at work or just election year frothing? Preposterous.
Fundamentals have not changed. Structural problems to the economy and
insurmountable debt remain and will worsen. All their computer
programmed trading tricks with eye towards so-called technical support,
resistance, etc., levels will suck some suckers in as always, they’ll still get
their commissions on the way down, and we’ll see the bubble deflate again.
This is an especially great opportunity to sell and take whatever profits /
gains because there is truly much worse to come and the nation’s defacto
bankrupt in every way.

This Week in the Markets - Suttmeier ‘ …Bank Failure Friday – The FDIC
closed seven banks last Friday bringing the total for the month of July to
17 and 103 for the year. Month to date bank failures have drained the FDIC
Deposit Insurance fund by $925.7 million brining the year to date today to
$18.5 billion well above the $15.33 billion prepaid assessments for all of
2010. I estimate that the DIF is now in arrears by $32.7 billion.

• Only 25 banks failed in 2008, as the FDIC was slow closing

community and regional banks.
• There were 140 bank failures in 2009 with a peak of 50 in the third
quarter.
• In the first quarter of 2010 there were 41 failures, in the second
quarter there were 45 failures, and so far 17 for the third quarter for a
year to date total of 103.
• At this pace bank closures in 2010 will be within my 150 to 200
estimate range for 2010.
• Since the end of 2007, the FDIC has closed 267 banks on the way to
my predicted 500 to 800 by the end of 2012 into 2013 …’

Financial Crisis Commission Threatens To Audit Goldman Sachs The

Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission headed up by Phil Angelides has
threatened to audit Goldman Sachs, as it looks for more data on its

The Death of Paper Money Ambrose Evans-Pritchard | As they prepare for

Yes! I just (7-24-10) looked up and a quandary no longer as I saw the

reason for the market action to the upside the last few sessions. A blazing
full moon! Lest there be any doubt, truly a testament to the reality of lunacy
and the lunar links thereto are the lunatic fraudulent rallies on fraudulent
wall street; criminally insane by any standard.

This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in a global

depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a
secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as has
preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street frauds
and insiders commission and sell into. This is a typical wall street churn
and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud as in prior crashes’. This
national decline, economic and otherwise, will not end until justice is
served and the wall street frauds et als are criminally prosecuted, jailed,
fined, and disgorgement imposed.
INSIDER TRANSACTIONS (Washington Post) Sell / Take profits / gains.
That’s what insiders do in contra-indicated stock bubbles as this (and
don’t forget, options must be executed and shares bought before
they’re sold).

Financial News: What's coming this week (Washington Post) What does it
matter? False data, manipulated data, spun data, even blatantly bad
data as in the past week. More important are the lunar cycles:

China builds influence via cash (Washington Post) Well, cash is something
that accumulates when you don’t spend same on illegal wars (as is so
of defacto bankrupt america, ie., Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.); note
Germany, Japan, etc.. Then there’s the ‘hate’ factor attendant to the
‘killing machine strategy’ which contrary to their folly / imagination,
does not win hearts and minds. Then there’s the fraudulent paper
push which militates against real, net economic gains.

Finally, there’s the american ‘crazy train’ factor which has become ever
more globally recognized.

'Tony Hayward is about to get his life back' (Washington Post) In Siberia …
Yes, tiny tony of little people fame sent into exile in Siberia as one
might expect from the New Soviet Socialist European Union. Note
Russia’s Putin has jumped onto that crazy train and to curry favor
therein has ‘thrown Iran under the bus’, so to speak. But, then again,
what can you expect from a former KGB indoctrinated communist,
although america’s now mutated form of capitalism / free enterprise
(really not either) might yet resurrect the likes of marx, lenin, trotsky,
etc.. I’m somewhat embarrassed to have even considered going to
Europe (specifically Switzerland / Geneva) and though language the
impediment (I’m hard-wired for english and even with a prior
background in French, ie., junior high, high school, recent course-
work in French here in Cal did not come easily at all; although,
computerization / algorithms in English from inception did, which I
believe explains Japan’s difficulty with computers, ie., Sony vaio,
Toyota car computerized systems, etc.). Even meaningfully lawless
america’s better than Europe (a very low standard / threshold at that),
for all the reasons that gave rise to america, plus new reasons which
will prove insurmountable having become the ‘lapdog’ joke of the
ages as like lemmings they followed fraudulent wall street’s, america’s
lead blindly into the abyss.

Top U.S. officer warns Afghan war will get worse

Oliver Stone has apologized for his anti-Semitic rant, but is the damage
already done. What damage? To perceived reality as opposed to
reality? When you look at america’s pro-israel, self-destructive,
contra-indicated policies, including the hands off policy vis-à-vis
fraudulent wall street, you see the truth to what he says which is what
so many astute individuals are already thinking / realizing. How can
people continue to ignore the truth, to their own detriment Think about
it. Do you really think he would risk the typical onslaught if the same
weren’t true? ‘Director Oliver Stone has been forced to make a
grovelling apology over an anti-Semitic outburst. The double
Academy Award winner claimed that the Russians suffered more
during the Second World War and that there was a Jewish 'domination
of the media'. Stone also said that Jews had '****ed up' U.S. foreign
policy for years and suggested the British supported Hitler ...’ The
relentless attacks on Mel Gibson are of the same caliber and purpose;
suppression of truth!

In 1948, U.S. Secretary of Defense James Forrestal, an opponent of the

creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, warned that, even though
failure to go along with the Zionists might cost President Truman the
states of New York, Pennsylvania, and California, it was about time
that somebody should pay some consideration to whether we might
not lose the United States. Mr. Forrestal was absolutely correct! Isn’t
that exactly what’s happened to defacto bankrupt america in
intractable decline.

He is a hero inasmuch as quite possibly the magnitudes of the frauds

[As well they should be inasmuch as in any rational / solvent nation,
they wouldn’t be spending what they don’t have. Defacto bankrupt

somewhat reassuring to see a state almost as bad as mob infested

predominantly government mob, much of which is cia at that). Yet,
one must be skeptical of what this perpetual-war, hot or cold, career
cia slug is actually accomplishing with these relatively small
peripheral cuts given the defacto bankrupt status of the nation. But,
this is one of those rare instances of something being better than
nothing since guns verses butter is real economic decision-making
and reality. ]

growing concern that U.S. support for the war will diminish further if

here (between them and defacto bankrupt america) is that ‘THEY CAN

Stick with that winning plan that worked so swimmingly (as in drowning, in
ie., debt, death, regional if not wordly anti-american sentiment, etc.)]. In
Kandahar, U.S. military officials hope that a secure green zone, similar to
the area in Baghdad, will make it more difficult for Taliban insurgents to
mount attacks to key buildings in the Afghan city.

Just being there and every day they’re there is unequivocally abject
failure. Celebritology Weekend: Angelina Jolie biography
arrives(Washington Post ) I usually don’t weigh in on entertainment
news, but this headline concerning what appears to be a disparaging,
and quite selectively so, purported biography of Angelina Jolie is very
disheartening when you consider the numerous instances of failed
leadership at nearly all very high levels of government having so
detrimental an impact on the world, that morton deems his time
appropriate to an actress who has actually tried to do good things
(U.N., etc.) without having to. Indeed, even her latest film ‘Salt’
(spectacular by any standard as is her performance – there are at least
2 winning sequels there with 4 the max and stretching it owing to age
– she puts all, and I mean all the ‘Bonds’ to shame) had an important
message in terms of the damage to this nation by a seemingly
endless, nation-bankrupting, anti-american (war criminal israelis
already, and quite correctly, globally hated) sentiment producing war
strategy that is neither strategy nor reasonably consistent with any
positive american goal / objective; but rather is such a debacle and
folly that the same could very well be one that only an enemy of
defacto bankrupt america could hatch and for the reasoning set forth

Accountability is unclear in israeli probe of flotilla raid (Washington Post)

Oh, come on! An israeli probe of an israeli massacre of civilians. Time for
israel to pay; for illegal nukes, for violations of international law, for
continued violations of u.n. resolutions, for provocations as pretexts to
sabotage peace talks, and on and on ad nauseum. Why does america
among other nations feel compelled to sacrifice themselves for the sake of
a global criminal nation with an insatiable greed and blood-thirst as israel?

Murder on the high seas JERUSALEM: Israeli marines stormed aid ships
bound for Gaza on Monday and at least 10 rights activists were killed,
triggering a diplomatic crisis and an emergency session of the UN
Security Council. European nations, as well as the United Nations and
Turkey, voiced shock and outrage at the bloody end to the
international campaigners' bid to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza
Strip
How does anyone take the u.s. seriously in light of their credibility
problems, war crimes, etc.? What nuke technology israel didn’t steal
from the u.s., the u.s. gave them along with missile, armaments, etc..
and paid for with taxpayer money that u.s. taxpayers and the defacto
bankrupt nation don’t have.

It's time to expel israel from the UN Without doubt, the israeli attack on the
Gaza-bound "Freedom Flotilla" in the dawn of Monday, May 31, 2010 is
one of the most savage crimes in recent history. It seems the ruling
power in Tel Aviv has been afflicted with a variant of mad cow
disease; otherwise, how could it be so cruel to unleash such a beastly
raid on the "Mavi Marmara," the Turkish flagship of a flotilla carrying
medical and humanitarian supplies to the hapless people of Gaza
Strip?

The israeli Spin-Machine in Overdrive: dershowitz to the Rescue? Armed Israeli

commandos, the elite of the elites, rappelled to the deck of a Turkish ship
carrying humanitarian relief supplies to the 1.5 million prisoners in the Gaza
concentration camp.

In 1948, U.S. Secretary of Defense James Forrestal, an opponent of the

creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, warned that, even though failure to
go along with the Zionists might cost President Truman the states of New
York, Pennsylvania, and California, it was about time that somebody
should pay some consideration to whether we might not lose the United
States. Mr. Forrestal was absolutely correct! Isn’t that exactly what’s
happened to defacto bankrupt america in intractable decline.

“extraordinary rendition” operations through Gatwick and other
airports in the EU being simultaneously used for drug distribution in
the Western hemisphere. A Gulfstream II jet aircraft N9875A

being involved in this traffic crashed in Mexico…” In 2004, another
torture taxi crashed in a field in Nicaragua with a ton of cocaine
aboard… Mexican soldiers found ..132 bags containing 3.3 metric
tons of cocaine. The origination of the Gulfstream’s flight is
unknown but it was destined for Cancun when it crash landed.
Again, here is the important point: that same Gulf Stream II was one
of the very same planes chartered to the CIA for the rendition of
suspected terrorists prisoners. Gulf Stream II crashed in Mexico with 3
tons of cocaine on board ..it should not be surprising that this illegal
practice of rendition has in some part, been used as a well-run
smokescreen for another borderless illegal operation- an extremely
lucrative international transfer and delivery of cash and
narcotics.,,These flights are not subject to regular customs checks,
inspections or normal regulations as they move seamlessly between
destinations in the US, Britain, Europe, Middle East, Central Asia,
Cuba and possibly through US bases in Turkey, Greece and
Morocco…

Corrupt u.s. courts / judges: Their lifetime plush appointments should be

laundering and obstruction of justice in the 3rd circuit ( also maryanne

what a criminal (lie of a) nation as america loves and encourages (get

accorded protective legislation from their criminal culpability) and focus of

"What this means is that Neanderthals are not totally extinct. In some of us,
they live on," Paabo … With regard to that extinction thing, I’d say
they’re still working on it (ultimately, decades, extinction, the
distinction, without a difference). Actually, prior to studying the
compelling subject of Biological Anthropology (Michael Park text), I
too had some misconceptions about the group known as Neandertals
(recent spelling drops the ‘h’) and actually mis-referenced same by the
stereotypical image of members of said clade even as the debate
continues as to whether they are within the species homo sapiens or a
separate species. I believe these to be distinctions without important
differences, so humble the origins and evolution of man truly are.
Parenthetically, I wonder what that anthropological scientist Heidi
Klum thinks on the subject.

Previously I wrote:

FOUND: MISSING LINK BETWEEN APES AND MAN.... These stories, and
the many like it, are old news and I subscribe to the more studied view
that there is no “missing link” per se and in my view they are
distinctions without significant differences. I previously wrote:

To Learn More About From Whence Man Came, This Link's For You

[To the Professor at the beginning of the course]

 10-5-09 Postscript: Professor *****,
I felt compelled to thank you again for the add; not to curry your favor but
indeed to express profound thanks inasmuch as this is probably the last
formal course at a formal educational institution I'll ever take; and among
the most important. While I had bought at discount a library-discarded 1993
Anthropology by Embers text, though meaning to read same never quite
got to it. I am astounded by the substantial amount of time involved in the
evolutionary process, not that I ever stopped to think about it, and one
must come away with the sense of 'and all that...for this?'. This course
should be required curriculum along with psychology, sociology, etc., but
probably won't be owing to what is, as it should be, a very humbling
educational experience for any member of the human race.
Regards,
Al Peia

[Interestingly, my intuitive (but unstudied) thoughts prior to closer

examination of the compelling subject of Biological Anthropology
remain what I believe to be the correct scenario. Specifically, very
simply stated, for the most part, the more “enlightened” (but not by
much; by mutation, accident, luck, intervention, etc.) left the
unvarying confines of their Sub-Saharan origins, experienced diverse
new environs, challenges, etc., experienced what has been described
(by neuroscientists, psychologists, etc.) as neurogenesis in varying
degrees and forms thereby over time, which trait was selected for and
is consistent with the purported multi-regional evolutionary model
which does not overtly contradict ultimately, initial African origins.
Races, sub-species, missing links, etc., are subsumed in this very
humbling and sorrowful tale of the “dawn of man”.]

have been pumping the story. Liberal bloggers have countered, accusing
them of trying to manufacture a scandal. But The Post has been virtually
silent. The story has its origins on Election Day in 2008, when two

attacked the humanitarian aid Freedom Flotilla in the international waters

participants strictly adhered to Ghandian mode by asking the Greek and
Cyprus authorities to search the boats to avoid later claims that they were
armed.

Ron Paul: After ‘CIA coup,’ agency ‘runs military’ US House Rep. Ron Paul

also personally believe there has been a defacto coup d’etat which
has manifested in various substantial, blatant, brazened frauds, ie.,
wall street, missing 360 tons of $100 bills in Iraq, war profiteering, etc.,
without any fear of prosecution, and of course concomitant decline for
u.s. as the treasury is looted. But I also believe its scope is beyond
just the CIA with many complicit within the corrupted 3 branches of
u.s. government (fed judges, us attorneys, illegal system, etc.) plus
the military and private big money, ie., Goldman Sachs / wall street
men, etc., among other organized crime. america is defacto bankrupt
in every way!
There must be such things as parallel universes (I don’t really believe that,

between reality, current and prospective, and the wet dreams posited
to keep the war funding / corporate welfare programs alive in

counting prospective medical costs, etc.) and promises to go much
higher. Even israel apologist Cohen of The Washington Post alludes
to the Vietnam analogy. However, even if there were real goals beyond
the poppy / heroin trade which the Taliban had all but eradicated
(there isn’t); even if america wasn’t defacto bankrupt (america is);
even if america wasn’t killing innocent civilians in large numbers (war
criminal nation america is); even if america’s allies haven’t similarly
helped to bankrupt themselves by way of this war (they have); even if I
hadn’t told you so (I did) ….. this war still was, is, and remains a very

…“Evidence points to aircraft – familiarly known as “torture taxis” –

used by the CIA to move captives seized in its kidnapping or
“extraordinary rendition” operations through Gatwick and other
airports in the EU being simultaneously used for drug distribution in
the Western hemisphere. A Gulfstream II jet aircraft N9875A
identified by the British Government and the European Parliament as
being involved in this traffic crashed in Mexico…” In 2004, another
torture taxi crashed in a field in Nicaragua with a ton of cocaine
aboard… Mexican soldiers found ..132 bags containing 3.3 metric
tons of cocaine. The origination of the Gulfstream’s flight is
unknown but it was destined for Cancun when it crash landed.
Again, here is the important point: that same Gulf Stream II was one
of the very same planes chartered to the CIA for the rendition of
suspected terrorists prisoners. Gulf Stream II crashed in Mexico with 3
tons of cocaine on board ..it should not be surprising that this illegal
practice of rendition has in some part, been used as a well-run
smokescreen for another borderless illegal operation- an extremely
lucrative international transfer and delivery of cash and
narcotics.,,These flights are not subject to regular customs checks,
inspections or normal regulations as they move seamlessly between
destinations in the US, Britain, Europe, Middle East, Central Asia,
Cuba and possibly through US bases in Turkey, Greece and
Morocco…
Corrupt u.s. courts / judges: Their lifetime plush appointments should be

of law mean nothing to these typically corrupt americans. Most,
including sam alito of the u.s. supreme court, concerning drug money
laundering and obstruction of justice in the 3rd circuit ( also maryanne
trump barry who covered-up drug money laundering through her

things (360 tons $100 bills flown into Iraq and missing, etc.).

"What this means is that Neanderthals are not totally extinct. In some of us,

they’re still working on it (ultimately, decades, extinction, the

compelling subject of Biological Anthropology (Michael Park text), I
too had some misconceptions about the group known as Neandertals
(recent spelling drops the ‘h’) and actually mis-referenced same by the
stereotypical image of members of said clade even as the debate
continues as to whether they are within the species homo sapiens or a
separate species. I believe these to be distinctions without important
differences, so humble the origins and evolution of man truly are.

Klum thinks on the subject.

I felt compelled to thank you again for the add; not to curry your favor but
indeed to express profound thanks inasmuch as this is probably the last
formal course at a formal educational institution I'll ever take; and among
the most important. While I had bought at discount a library-discarded 1993
Anthropology by Embers text, though meaning to read same never quite
got to it. I am astounded by the substantial amount of time involved in the
evolutionary process, not that I ever stopped to think about it, and one
must come away with the sense of 'and all that...for this?'. This course
should be required curriculum along with psychology, sociology, etc., but
probably won't be owing to what is, as it should be, a very humbling
educational experience for any member of the human race.

[Interestingly, my intuitive (but unstudied) thoughts prior to closer

examination of the compelling subject of Biological Anthropology
remain what I believe to be the correct scenario. Specifically, very
simply stated, for the most part, the more “enlightened” (but not by
much; by mutation, accident, luck, intervention, etc.) left the
unvarying confines of their Sub-Saharan origins, experienced diverse
new environs, challenges, etc., experienced what has been described
(by neuroscientists, psychologists, etc.) as neurogenesis in varying
degrees and forms thereby over time, which trait was selected for and
is consistent with the purported multi-regional evolutionary model
which does not overtly contradict ultimately, initial African origins.
Races, sub-species, missing links, etc., are subsumed in this very
humbling and sorrowful tale of the “dawn of man”.]

 Market Going Down With the Ship? Montgomery: ‘This morning the
Baltic Dry Index, a measure of freight rates for international shipping,
was at 1700. It hasn't been at this level since April 2009, only four
months after its Credit Crisis low and only one month after the stock
market was at its bottom. Bloomberg News noted a week ago that the
index had dropped continuously for the longest period in nine years.
Yes, the current drop in the preceding seven weeks (from a high of
4209 in late May) has been bigger than anything seen during the
Credit Crisis. The last drop of this magnitude was in August 2001 in
the middle of that year's recession. Lack of shipping activity from
China, the engine for global economic activity, was cited as the main
cause for the falling index. Charter rates for all types of ships tracked
in the index are falling. Prices for dry bulk shipping, which doesn't
include energy commodities, tend to be very sensitive to economic
activity. A sharp drop in rates indicates a significant drop in global
trade. Based on historical charts it looks like the Baltic Index can lead,
be coincident or lag movements in economic data and the stock
market. The index seems to be most closely correlated with prices of
industrial commodities and the industrial sector of the global
economy. While this is not the largest component of the U.S. economy
(the service sector is four times larger), it is the key sector in
developing economies. It was manufacturing though that had the
biggest rebound in the U.S. since last year. The service sector has
remained lackluster. The stock market will likely be following the
Baltic Index down, although perhaps not with such a precipitous
decline. The Index has dropped almost 60% since late May. With the
exception of the small cap Russell 2000, none of the major stock
indices have had even a 20% drop - at least not yet. Disclosure: No
positions.’

After Goldman, SEC eyes exotic financial products Video (Washington

Post) SEC’s Khuzami Says ‘Goldman’s Suit Should Send Message’:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-
dyn/content/video/2010/07/16/VI2010071602828.html

I disagree! Indeed, there have been and are a plethora of laws and ad hoc
prosecutions; but, particularly for the ‘risk seeker’ criminally insane
mentality on wall street, the same is far from a deterrent as seen from
historical perspective / fact and might even perversely provide for
them an incentive. The amount is relatively meager, but so long as
 this settlement is as supposedly indicated to former SEC head by
Khuzami narrowly drawn and in no ways protective of goldman with
regard to the yet unresolved massive frauds in the many trillions, the
SEC should be given the benefit of the doubt. However, ‘turning its
attention to exotic financial products that MIGHT be used to harm
investors’ is troubling to say the least. Might? Who are they kidding.
The ‘bad paper’ is still out there in the many trillions and in criminally
complicit fashion now marked to anything. I further believe these
products of fraud and consequent damage are being surreptitiously
being, with corrupt fed help, supplanted with real, albeit fiat, currency
ultimately to citizens / taxpayers / nations detriment. As things
currently stand, particularly from the numbers, fraud by wall street
does pay; and pays well! Khuzami, a 29-year-old former employee in
Goldman Sachs Group Inc.'s business intelligence unit, had better
produce or appropriately find himself prosecuted for conflict,
collusion, etc.. After all, he’s hardly one to be considered unbiased.
The frauds on wall street et als must be criminally prosecuted, jailed,
fined, and disgorgement imposed. I truly believe that absent such
prosecution, there will be revolution in this country. In other words,
their ‘jig is up’ and they must go down for what they did / do.

Wall Street Is Laundering Drug Money And Getting Away With It

They still know how to count. When you defraud for many billions, paying
$550 million is chump change. Goldman to pay $550M to settle civil fraud
charges (AP) Late stock rally ahead of Goldman settlement news And
the beat goes on! Goldman Sachs beats the SEC– ‘Can Goldman Sachs
Group Inc. wheel and deal or what? The bank and brokerage's settlement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday over the ill-
fated Abacus deal may be its best trade ever. At $550 million, it's not
terribly expensive. (GS 152.19, +6.97, +4.80%) hasn't agreed to restrict its
practices in any meaningful way. And poof! The firm can go back to work
with its biggest liability paid. Investors are ecstatic, Goldman shares
rocketed 5.5% in after-hours trading. No wonder Goldman called it "the
right outcome for our firm shareholders and clients." See full story on the
SEC settlement. For the regulators, the settlement is more than just
anticlimactic. Having bet all of its chips on reversing embarrassing
episodes such as the Bernie Madoff fiasco in an aggressive case against
Wall Street, the SEC whiffed. Sure, the settlement is the biggest in the
agency's history. Yes, the SEC was able to squeeze Goldman on the
settlement language and admit it was a "mistake" not to have disclosed
Paulson & Co.'s role in picking the ill-fated securities. But come on.
Goldman's net income last year was $12.1 billion. It could be even higher
this year, given the robust first quarter Goldman already has had. The
settlement amounts to less than 5% of profits. Maybe Goldman Sachs will
even be able to write it off …’

Concern over smashing into the 'wall of debt' (Washington Post) Oh,
they’ve hit the wall alright; and, it’s not just debt.

I believe the printing presses have been working overtime to pump out
ever more worthless fiat currency and with the many trillions of
worthless fraudulent paper still out there and marked to anything. I
further believe the same is being surreptitiously used to supplant the
fraudulent paper, the consequences of which will be devastating, of
course, as is invariably so in depressions in any event. This scenario
would also mean huge fraud accomplis. This market is paper on paper
moving around and generating commissions at lightning
computerized speed but adding no real value in real economic terms;
again, the analogy of termites eating away at the (nation’s) foundation
is apposite. As such, that money has to come from some real place
and hence, the ever more frequent and larger crashes we are seeing.
Don’t forget that the worthless paper from previous such fraudulent
schemes now marked to anything is still out there in a magnitude
some have placed in the hundreds of trillions.

Biggest wall will be reality:

‘This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in a global

depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a
secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as has
preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street frauds
and insiders commission and sell into.’

Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011

The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between
2010 and 2012

Economists worry women, minority business owners' gains will be lost

(Washington Post) Little bit late for ‘economists worry’; talk about
senile greenspan / no-recession bernanke economics /
prognosticating. Does anybody recall the merciless drubbing (and
pressure) that Ross Perot got for predicting the ill effects of NAFTA
and standing against the tide. In america today, the best men never
win; that’s reality, and also the sign of decline.

Exports are up, but where are the jobs? (Washington Post) Gone with the
wind? Sorry, I must have been thinking of million dollar movies. Seriously
though, I dare say everyone knows they were gone with that ‘bi-partisan
executive / congressional, think-tank, cia / nsa ill wind’ that others might
refer to as flatulence / passing gas, also called NAFTA, and also proudly
hailed by the foregoing as ‘strategy’. They’re gone, and never to return.
Moreover, the flipside of the exports, viz., imports, doesn’t bode well
despite the fraudulent wall street b*** s*** and their chorus of cheerleaders
in washington. Some might say self-delusion but I would say fraud covers
all.

Companies pile up cash but still won't add jobs (Washington Post) Unlike
the public sector (which now exceeds private sector in job gains and
average compensation), the private sector attempts to mesh hiring with
economic supply / demand factors to maximize (shareholder) profits /
wealth. Whatever faults american companies have, with relatively few
exceptions, this still remains a very basic fundamental and building
surplus (generating profits) is a necessary precept to ensure survival and
the capacity to be a good ‘citizen’ so to speak. Then there’s reality:

Retail sales down for 2nd consecutive month (Washington Post) Another
‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street! This time it’s the unexpected
downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales report and poor
retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then there’s the fed
minutes pointing to extended bad economy. See Dave Fry’s (Daily)
summary below referencing in euphemistic fashion, yet another ongoing
manipulation also known as fraud. (Absent prosecutions, they’ll continue
to do what comes natural to frauds on wall street). Great opportunity to sell
/ take profits since much worse, also called reality beyond the b*** s***, to
come. Then there’s also the bad but typical news; viz., retail sales,
mortgage apps, economic outlook down, and yesterday deficits, trade and
budget, up.

NATION NEWS DIGEST: J.P. Morgan Chase posts $4.8 billion profit
(Washington Post) Yet another ‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street!
This time it’s the unexpected jump in continuing claims for unemployment,
yesterday the downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales
report and poor retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then
there’s the fed minutes pointing to extended bad economy. Then there’s
also now the ‘goldfinger factor’ as in goldman’s middle finger. When you
defraud for many billions, paying $550 million is chump change. Goldman
shares rocketed 5.5% in after-hours trading. No wonder Goldman called it
"the right outcome for our firm shareholders and clients." (Absent
prosecutions, they’ll continue to do what comes natural to frauds on wall
street). Great opportunity to sell / take profits since much worse, also
called reality beyond the b*** s***, to come. Then there’s also the bad but
typical news; viz., previous retail sales, mortgage apps, economic outlook
down, and continuing claims for unemployment, deficits, trade / budget,
up. (Just in: 7-16-10 Poll – only 43% of Americans approve of the
Afganistan War, down from 52% in January, 2010)

Pearlstein: Can regulation beget innovation? (Washington Post) I believe

the more seminal question to be, whether american companies, consistent
with overall american decline and corruption in so pervasive a fashion, are
capable of or inclined toward real innovation where enhancements to
productivity, as well as greater profits, is the consequence as desired.
Certainly there has been ‘innovation’ by the wall street frauds in the types
of (ultimately worthless / fraudulent) paper and high frequency trade
programs enhancing their bottom-lines but little else; and, those cutting
edge ‘weapons of mass destruction’ produced or financed (israel) by
america are hardly productive in the economic sense but innovative and
profitable in the short run, and unwise and nation-bankrupting in the longer
run which we’re in right now!

Goldman agrees to pay $550M (Washington Post) My own skepticism

based on the disparate numbers (the size of the frauds compared to
the relatively small fine) and as set forth in the initial reactions /
headlines that immediately follow has been allayed somewhat by an
interview on NBR with former SEC head Ruder who explained the very
narrow scope of the settlement which in no way shelters goldman
from the huge frauds they have perpetrated. So long as this is true in
 fact as well as law and in application, the SEC deserves praise as has
been so under the auspices of ‘Mother Mary’ who appears to have the
gonads lacking in prior SEC heads. The frauds on wall street et als
should be criminally prosecuted, jailed, fined, and disgorgement
imposed.

Economists worry women, minority business owners' gains will be lost

(Washington Post) Little bit late for ‘economists worry’; talk about
senile greenspan / no-recession bernanke economics /
prognosticating. Does anybody recall the merciless drubbing (and
pressure) that Ross Perot got for predicting the ill effects of NAFTA
and standing against the tide. In america today, the best men never
win; that’s reality, and also the sign of decline.

Exports are up, but where are the jobs? (Washington Post) Gone with the
wind? Sorry, I must have been thinking of million dollar movies. Seriously
though, I dare say everyone knows they were gone with that ‘bi-partisan
executive / congressional, think-tank, cia / nsa ill wind’ that others might
refer to as flatulence / passing gas, also called NAFTA, and also proudly
hailed by the foregoing as ‘strategy’. They’re gone, and never to return.
Moreover, the flipside of the exports, viz., imports, doesn’t bode well
despite the fraudulent wall street b*** s*** and their chorus of cheerleaders
in washington. Some might say self-delusion but I would say fraud covers
all.

Companies pile up cash but still won't add jobs (Washington Post) Unlike
the public sector (which now exceeds private sector in job gains and
average compensation), the private sector attempts to mesh hiring with
economic supply / demand factors to maximize (shareholder) profits /
wealth. Whatever faults american companies have, with relatively few
exceptions, this still remains a very basic fundamental and building
surplus (generating profits) is a necessary precept to ensure survival and
the capacity to be a good ‘citizen’ so to speak. Then there’s reality:

Retail sales down for 2nd consecutive month (Washington Post) Another
‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street! This time it’s the unexpected
downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales report and poor
retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then there’s the fed
minutes pointing to extended bad economy. See Dave Fry’s (Daily)
summary below referencing in euphemistic fashion, yet another ongoing
manipulation also known as fraud. (Absent prosecutions, they’ll continue
to do what comes natural to frauds on wall street). Great opportunity to sell
/ take profits since much worse, also called reality beyond the b*** s***, to
come. Then there’s also the bad but typical news; viz., retail sales,
mortgage apps, economic outlook down, and yesterday deficits, trade and
budget, up.

Mideast Digest: Wow! Belfast, Northern Ireland; and in the Mideast Digest
Section, of all places. It’s been a long time. While I have had some
difficulties with Irish mob in the context of litigation but only
tangential to my primary RICO action vis-à-vis the Italian mob (and
similarly tangentially the jewish mob and then primarily what I learned
to be ‘governmental mob’, federal, state, local, derivative thereby and
the sine quo non of corruption / bribery / synergy that spells decline
for any nation), it is difficult to not be empathetic to the plight of an
otherwise beautiful nation tainted only by the orange stain in that
northern quarter. After all, what hasn’t england not mucked up from
balfour to the mideast to now even their own nation having hitched a
ride on the american / israeli crazy train. As a matter of disclosure, I
must admit to an affinity for the Irish and somewhat fairly recently had
been asked what I thought of Philadelphia to which without hesitation
I immediately replied that Grace Kelly (truly magnificent by any
standard) was born there. I could think of nothing else that could
parallel such a distinction.

WHICH WAY IS THE MARKET GOING NEXT? Gomes: ‘Having been a

technical analyst for the first 10 years of my investing career and a
fundamental analyst for the past 15 years, I'm a believer that technical
patterns form as fundamentals unfold. As such, if you know something
about both, you can confirm both against each other. At this point in time, I
see a market that is technically reaching up toward its 200 day moving
average (2,250 for the NASDAQ). I also see a 50 day moving average that is
threatening to drop below that 200 day moving average. Technically, that is
usually a very bad sign for the market. …
1) Economic indicators are dropping fast. For all intents and purposes, the
unemployment rate has not budged. Meanwhile, store shelves are stocked
again, PCs have been upgraded, etc. In other words, the pent-up demand
that drove the current rebound has almost run its course. What little
remains no longer has the power to drive the economy as it has over the
past 18-months.
2) "Follow the money". This is one of the most powerfully simple rules on
Wall Street. When money is flowing into the economy (i.e. via lower interest
rates or stimulus $$$), it's usually good for stocks..and vice versa. At
present, interest rates can't go much lower and the numerous stimulus
programs are losing effectiveness. This means that the money is no longer
flowing in. Worse yet, the money that was spent is not generally viewed as
having been money well spent. This does not bode well for a new stimulus
package to come anytime soon. In other words, money is not flowing in
AND doesn't appear poised to flow in anytime soon. In fact, state and
municipal budgets are being cut (money flowing OUT), while they raise
local sales and income taxes (more money flowing out). if federal taxes go
up in 2011, as planned, even more money will be flowing out. If you follow
that, you should be flowing out of the stock market. In short, barring a new
stimulus package of other major money-flowing event, I believe the
economy slips back toward recession. Whether or not we double-dip, we
will almost certainty slip in that direction.
3) If you follow the money in Europe, you will run for the hills. Europe has
decided to spin 180-degrees and shift from stimulus to austerity (if you
don't know the definition, look it up -- you'll likely hear it again -- and not
just from me). Effectively the opposite of stimulus, austerity will pull money
away from the European economies...which tells us to pull money away
from stocks. Worse yet, the effect of the EU/IMF bailout is already wearing
off. Greek yields are rising again and Portuguese credit ratings have been
reduced.
4) Global bubbles are bursting. Most notably, home sales in China and
Canada are starting to fall. Remember what happened when the U.S.
housing market cracked? That's right -- that's what started this mess in the
first place.
5) Politically, this period in time has a tendency to be bad for stocks. There
is uncertainty around the mid-year elections...and the market hates
uncertainty. Historically, the political picture doesn't become clear until
October, at which point we might expect a rally. Until then, expect the
democrats to do everything they can to retain their jobs in November. That
means, "stop pissing off the public"...and the public seems pretty pissed
about how the stimulus $$$ worked out for them (or more accurately, how
it DIDN'T work out for them). Thus, the political pressure will lean against
further stimulus until after the elections.
The Bottom Line: I believe that the market will start to reflect these
concerns very soon. These are real fundamental concerns, which you can
see reflected in the technicals. As the market reaches the 50DMA and the
200DMA, it will be inclined to retreat (barring some new, hugely positive
news). Meanwhile, the 50DMA is 90%+ likely to cross below the 200DMA,
giving the market more reason to retrench. At some point, if the economy
sinks far enough and if the market drops far enough, political pressure for
more stimulus will mount. At that point, money will flow back into the
economy. But that time is not now. Now, money is flowing away like the
tide...and so should your invested capital. I'm not always right, but I do my
best, based on the information before me. Based on what I see right now,
the most logical conclusion is to expect a long, ugly summer for stocks. If I
see information that changes that view, I'll be sure to post an update to this
post. Disclosure: I have short positions against the market

Simon Maierhofer: ‘On Friday July 9, 2010, 4:32 pm EDT It rarely ever
happens, but when it does, it's serious. It has only happened nine times in
10 years. We are referring to crossovers between the 200-day and 50-day
simple moving averages (SMAs).Very few technical indicators receive as
much attention and media coverage as the 50 and 200-day SMAs. The 200-
day MA is perceived to be the dividing line between a stock that is
technically healthy and one that is not. It's a Big Deal It's a big deal when a
stock or an index drops below the 200-day SMA. It's an even bigger deal
when the 50-day SMA of any given stock or index drops below the 200-day
SMA. Such a crossover reflects internal weakness - at least in theory. We'll
discuss in a moment how the actual numbers match up with theoretic
assumptions. On June 22, 2010, the S&P 500 (SNP: ^GSPC) and Dow Jones
(DJI: ^DJI) dropped below the 200-day SMA. One day later the Nasdaq
(Nasdaq: ^IXIC) followed. On July 2, 2010, the 50-day SMA for the S&P
(NYSEArca: SPY - News) dropped below the 200-day SMA. On July 6, the
Dow Jones (NYSEArca: DIA - News) followed. As of today, the Nasdaq
(Nasdaq: QQQQ - News) is barely hanging on. This sounds like a
doomsday scenario. Does a rigid analysis show that there is validity to 200-
day and 50-day SMA crossover buy/sell signals? Let's
investigate.Crossovers - Lagging but Notable Many argue that the SMA
crossover is a delayed signal that emphasizes past weakness more than it
foreshadows future declines. To an extent, that is true. There are other
warning signals that point to a market turn long before the SMA does. For
example, on April 16, 2010, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter noted an
extremely low put/call ratio along with other bullish sentiment extremes.
The newsletter stated that 'the message conveyed by the composite
bullishness is unmistakably bearish. Once prices start to fall and investors
get afraid of incurring losses, the only option is to sell (due to the low
put/call ratio). Selling, results in more selling. This negative feedback loop
usually results in rapidly falling prices.' Prices did fall rapidly. The 22
trading days following the April 26 high, erased eight months worth of
gains. It took a 17% drop for the SMA crossover to trigger a sell signal.
When the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter issued a strong buy signal on
March 2, 2009, it emphasized that the developing rally would be a counter
trend rally followed by a steep decline and maintained this viewpoint even
though prices kept rallying relentlessly into the April highs. The SMA
crossover now expresses the possibility that even lower prices are ahead.
200 and 50-day SMA Crossovers - How Accurate? How about the SMA
crossover track record? Over the past 10 years, there have been nine S&P
SMA crossovers with five sell and four buy signals. We have yet to see the
results of the most recent sell signal. However, of the eight previous
signals, six were correct. Average gains following each signal were 14.91%.
$10,000 invested according to the buy/sell recommendations given right
after the first sell signal was triggered on October 30, 2000 at S&P 1,399,
would be worth $24,769 today. More Than just Crossovers If it sounds too
good to be true, it often is. As is the case with so many technical
indicators, crossovers need to be viewed in context with other indicators.
In other words, take a step back and evaluate how crossovers fit into the
larger picture. The larger picture (going back to 2007) reveals that trading
volume associated with market declines has been generally high, while
trading volume seen during rallies has been generally low; a bearish sign.
Does Wednesday's 3.13% Rally Invalidate the Sell Signal? On Wednesday,
the S&P rallied 32 points or 3.13%. The Dow rallied 2.82%, while the Nasdaq
rallied 3.13%. Does this mean the bull market is back on track?Since the
April market top, we've seen about a handful of 2-3% bounces. All
associated gains were erased within a matter of days. Chances are this
time will be the same. In fact, some sort of bounce was to be expected. On
July 5, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter stated 'considering that the S&P
is butting against the 100-week SMA, lower accelerations band, 38.2%
Fibonacci retracement levels, round number resistance at 1,000, and
weekly s1 at 994, there is a good chance we will see some sort of a bounce
develop from the 990 - 1,015 area. Weekly r1 at 1,066 and pivot at 1,063
should serve as resistance.' This bounce is in its later stages right now.
What's Next? Let's revisit the larger picture. Out of the nine leading
industry sectors, seven have seen their 50-day SMA cross below the 200-
day SMA - financials (NYSEArca: XLF - News), technology (NYSEArca: XLK
- News), consumer staples (NYSEArca: XLP - News), materials (NYSEArca:
XLB - News), utilities (NYSEArca: XLU - News), energy (NYSEArca: XLE -
News) and healthcare (NYSEArca: XLV - News). The consumer
discretionary (NYSEArca: XLY - News) and industrial sector (NYSEArca:
XLI - News) are the only holdouts. All nine sectors, however, trade below
their 200-day SMA. Fundamentals, sentiment readings and valuations also
point south. Some of the fundamentals we have discussed in these pages
are crafty accounting practices designed to hide huge losses racked up by
big financial institutions not yet realized along with a continually bad
unemployment picture. Sentiment surrounding the April highs recorded
extremes not seen since the 2000, 2007, and even 1987 market top. There
are multiple sentiment measures (such as the VIX, cash allocation, put/call
ratio, percentage of bullish/bearish advisors, mutual fund cash levels, etc.).
Each sentiment measure is one piece of the puzzle. The more pieces of the
puzzle you have, the clearer the picture becomes. Leading up to the April
highs, nearly all sentiment indicators peaked, painting a complete bearish
picture. In summary, the bearish picture is confirmed by technical
indicators, a fundamental outlook, sentiment gauges, and valuations.
Based on what the market considered fair market valuations at prior
historic market bottoms, one can conclude how far stocks have to drop to
reach the previously attained level of fair valuations. The ETF Profit
Strategy Newsletter includes a detailed analysis of four valuation metrics
with a track record of accuracy, along with the implied target range for an
ultimate market bottom. This is provided in addition to its short, mid and
long-term forecast. When the market speaks, it behooves investors to
listen. Fighting the tape has often proven to be foolish, as the market will
always have the final word.’

Commercial Real Estate Loans Extend and Pretend ‘…Courtesy of

Thomson / Reuters Commercial Real Estate Loans – Extend and Pretend
Community banks have commercial real estate loans where the borrower
cannot make scheduled interest and principle payments. More than 50% of
all FDIC-insured institutions have loan pipelines that are 80% to 100%
funded. This is a measure of how banks are stuck with noncurrent assets,
but they are not classified that way. Instead, community banks are giving
borrowers more time to make their payments on the theory that it’s better
to collect zero on some loans rather than owning the real estate that
collateralizes those loans. This concept is dubbed “extend and pretend”
hoping that the borrower will eventual pay the loan back. Banks in this
practice are known as “Zombie Banks” as they can’t lend, can’t lure in new
investors, and wait for the FDIC to knock on their doors on Friday
afternoon. This strategy includes stretching out loan maturities and
allowing below-market interest rates to slow the number of defaults and
preserving the capital of banks that would be expended if property had to
become “Other Real Estate Owned.” As a result “Loans 30 to 89 Days in
Arrears” and “Noncurrent” loans are not growing as fast as they should be.
The net result of these practices masks the true toxicity of the Commercial
Real Estate market. It’s not just the small banks that are employing “extend
and pretend” tactics. I read that the Bank of America (BAC) has extended a
large real estate loan in Buckhead, Georgia the high-class area north of
Atlanta. The loan finances the development of a high-end shopping and
residential project in 2007 and now three years later the cranes are silent
and the project is fenced in. The banking regulators are helping the banks
by allowing the lenders several ways to restructure loans. While doing so
the banks are allowed to keep these loans as “performing” even with
collateral values below the loan amounts. Extend and pretend is also
known as kicking the can down the road. It seems to me that we have
wasted billions if not trillions in stimulus money and bank bailouts when
this money could have been used to actually fund the completion of these
projects. Such a plan would have cost tax payers much less and would
have kept Americans working on Main Street USA, as finishing incompleted
real estate projects are clearly “shovel ready” projects. According to
Foresight Analytics banks hold $176 billion of CRE loans that could be
declared toxic. This is the tip of the iceberg as the FDIC Quarterly Banking
Profile shows $1.09 trillion in nonfarm nonresidential real estate loans and
$418 billion in Construction & Development loans on the books of our
nation’s banks. About two-thirds of the CRE loans are maturing between
now and 2014, and are underwater. Commercial real estate property values
are down 42% from the October 2007 peak. At the end of the first quarter
9.1% are delinquent up from 7% a year earlier. Bankers justify “extend and
pretend” saying that it’s better than calling the loan and dumping more
property on a depressed market. We need a stronger economy to entice
new investors to resurrect projects and to find new demand for competed
offices, hotels, condos etc which are the finished products of completed
CRE projects. Without a strong economic recovery these loans will
eventually have to be written off down the road. The problem is that while
these loans are on hold banks can’t justify new loans, which would be the
engine of economic growth. And the beat goes on. Disclosure: No

Light Volume Temptations: Dave's Daily ‘Volume still matters, doesn't it? It
seems not as the financial media ignores our light volume market in favor

Inventory Cycle Has Run Its Course Harrison – ‘… This is the scenario I
have been predicting for months now.

• Double Dip Recession and the Obama 2011 Budget (February 2010):
The long and short is that – come Summer – the inventory cycle’s
thrust will have dissipated. And if companies are not hiring by this
time and consumer spending is not increasing more robustly, then
the state budgets, the strategic defaults and all of the rest of that
 becomes a serious obstacle. In my view, more likely than not, this
will lead to another recession late in 2010 or in 2011. And nothing in
the President’s budget changes this outlook.
• The mindset will not change; a depressionary relapse may be
coming (March 2010): the inventory cycle’s impact on GDP growth
will attenuate. By the second half of 2010, inventories will not add
considerably to GDP.
• US GDP growth rate is unsustainable; recovery will fade (April 2010):
The inventory cycle is already starting to fade. That means weak 1 or
2% growth at best by Q4 2010. Unless job growth picks up
tremendously by the second half of the year, this recovery is in
trouble.

50 Random Facts That Make You Wonder What In The World Has Happened
To America - The Economic Collapse July 2, 2010 Our world is
changing at a pace that is so staggering these days that it can be
really hard to fully grasp the significance of what we are witnessing.
Hopefully the collection of random facts below will help you to
“connect the dots” just a little bit. On one level, the facts below may
not seem related. However, what they all do have in common is that
they show just how much the United States has fundamentally
changed. Do you ever just sit back and wonder what in the world has
happened to America? The truth is that the America that so many of
us once loved so much has been shattered into a thousand pieces.
The “land of the free and the home of the brave” has been
transformed into a socialized Big Brother nanny state that is oozing
with corruption and has accumulated the biggest mountain of debt in
the history of the world. The greatest economic machine that the
world has ever seen is falling apart before our very eyes, and even
when our politicians actually try to do something right (which is quite
rare) the end result is still a bunch of garbage. For those who still
love this land (and there are a lot of us) it is heartbreaking to watch
America slowly die.

Mexico.

Six Months to Go Until the Largest Tax Hikes in History...

SIX MONTHS TO GO UNTIL

THE LARGEST TAX HIKES IN HISTORY

From Ryan Ellis on Thursday, July 1, 2010 4:15 PM

Read more: http://www.atr.org/six-months-untilbr-largest-tax-hikes-

a5171##ixzz0sVN5aBH3

In just six months, the largest tax hikes in the history of America will take
effect. They will hit families and small businesses in three great waves on
January 1, 2011:

First Wave: Expiration of 2001 and 2003 Tax Relief

In 2001 and 2003, the GOP Congress enacted several tax cuts for investors,
small business owners, and families. These will all expire on January 1,
2011:

Personal income tax rates will rise. The top income tax rate will rise from
35 to 39.6 percent (this is also the rate at which two-thirds of small
business profits are taxed). The lowest rate will rise from 10 to 15 percent.
All the rates in between will also rise. Itemized deductions and personal
exemptions will again phase out, which has the same mathematical effect
as higher marginal tax rates. The full list of marginal rate hikes is below:

- The 10% bracket rises to an expanded 15%

- The 25% bracket rises to 28%
- The 28% bracket rises to 31%
- The 33% bracket rises to 36%
- The 35% bracket rises to 39.6%

Higher taxes on marriage and family. The “marriage penalty” (narrower tax
brackets for married couples) will return from the first dollar of income.
The child tax credit will be cut in half from $1000 to $500 per child. The
standard deduction will no longer be doubled for married couples relative
to the single level. The dependent care and adoption tax credits will be cut.

The return of the Death Tax. This year, there is no death tax. For those
dying on or after January 1 2011, there is a 55 percent top death tax rate on
estates over $1 million. A person leaving behind two homes and a
retirement account could easily pass along a death tax bill to their loved
ones.
Higher tax rates on savers and investors. The capital gains tax will rise
from 15 percent this year to 20 percent in 2011. The dividends tax will rise
from 15 percent this year to 39.6 percent in 2011. These rates will rise
another 3.8 percent in 2013.

Second Wave: Obamacare

There are over twenty new or higher taxes in Obamacare. Several will first
go into effect on January 1, 2011. They include:

The “Medicine Cabinet Tax” Thanks to Obamacare, Americans will no

longer be able to use health savings account (HSA), flexible spending
account (FSA), or health reimbursement (HRA) pre-tax dollars to purchase
non-prescription, over-the-counter medicines (except insulin).

The “Special Needs Kids Tax” This provision of Obamacare imposes a cap
on flexible spending accounts (FSAs) of $2500 (Currently, there is no
federal government limit). There is one group of FSA owners for whom this
new cap will be particularly cruel and onerous: parents of special needs
children. There are thousands of families with special needs children in
the United States, and many of them use FSAs to pay for special needs
education. Tuition rates at one leading school that teaches special needs
children in Washington, D.C. (National Child Research Center) can easily
exceed $14,000 per year. Under tax rules, FSA dollars can be used to pay
for this type of special needs education.

The HSA Withdrawal Tax Hike. This provision of Obamacare increases the
additional tax on non-medical early withdrawals from an HSA from 10 to 20
percent, disadvantaging them relative to IRAs and other tax-advantaged
accounts, which remain at 10 percent.

Third Wave: The Alternative Minimum Tax and Employer Tax Hikes

When Americans prepare to file their tax returns in January of 2011, they’ll
be in for a nasty surprise—the AMT won’t be held harmless, and many tax
relief provisions will have expired. The major items include:

The AMT will ensnare over 28 million families, up from 4 million last year.
According to the left-leaning Tax Policy Center, Congress’ failure to index
the AMT will lead to an explosion of AMT taxpaying families—rising from 4
million last year to 28.5 million. These families will have to calculate their
tax burdens twice, and pay taxes at the higher level. The AMT was created
in 1969 to ensnare a handful of taxpayers.

Small business expensing will be slashed and 50% expensing will

disappear. Small businesses can normally expense (rather than slowly-
deduct, or “depreciate”) equipment purchases up to $250,000. This will be
cut all the way down to $25,000. Larger businesses can expense half of
their purchases of equipment. In January of 2011, all of it will have to be
“depreciated.”

Taxes will be raised on all types of businesses. There are literally scores of
tax hikes on business that will take place. The biggest is the loss of the
“research and experimentation tax credit,” but there are many, many
others. Combining high marginal tax rates with the loss of this tax relief
will cost jobs.

Tax Benefits for Education and Teaching Reduced. The deduction for
tuition and fees will not be available. Tax credits for education will be
limited. Teachers will no longer be able to deduct classroom expenses.
Coverdell Education Savings Accounts will be cut. Employer-provided
educational assistance is curtailed. The student loan interest deduction
will be disallowed for hundreds of thousands of families.

Charitable Contributions from IRAs no longer allowed. Under current law,

a retired person with an IRA can contribute up to $100,000 per year directly
to a charity from their IRA. This contribution also counts toward an annual
“required minimum distribution.” This ability will no longer be there.

Investors get more gloomy & bearish We just had a very difficult three
month stretch for stocks. The S&P 500 fell 12% for the quarter as did
NASDAQ. The Shanghai Composite, China’s largest stock index, fell 22.9
in its local currency, the yuan. The MSCI EAFE Index (foreign stocks) was
down 14%. Given the negative news, it is not surprising that investors are
becoming more bearish on stocks. This chart from Bespoke is based on
the weekly Investors Intelligence survey, which is getting close to levels
from a year ago. This is not close the peak we reached in early 2009, but
the mood is definitely more negative now: [chart]

Double Dip on the Way There were many events contributing to yesterday’s
sell-off, and the most likely culprits around the globe included more
protests in Greece, continued to concerns about Europe at large, and a
downward revision (due to a calculation error) of a leading economic
indicator reading in China for the month of April. But when it comes down
to it, our own economy has yet to stand on solid ground. While the
recovery has continued to be shaky at best, recent economic readings may
be pointing to a double dip recession. Yesterday’s batch of economic data
seemed to be confirming that, as it brought a very dismal reading on
consumer confidence. June’s number stood at 52.9, far below expectations
of 62.5, and pointing to the consumers’ weariness about the job market,
and economic recovery in general. To go further, the previous reading for
May was revised downward, to 62.7 from 63.3. But the drop from May to
June really sends the message home: we’re not out of the woods yet.
Earlier in the week, we saw personal savings rates rise again, even while
personal income growth was meager. Americans, despite bringing home a
little more cash, continued to save more for the expected rainy days, and
have yet to return to their spendthrift ways. After yesterday’s precipitous
selling, one would expect to see a bit of a bounce in today’s trading
session. That wasn’t the case, however, as more weak data continued to
dampen economic hopes. Today’s culprit was the ADP private sector job
report. The report stated that private payroll gains were muted in June, with
only 13,000 jobs added – far less than the 60,000 expected by economists.
While May’s reading was revised slightly upwards (to 57,000 hires from
previously reported 55,000), today’s release does not bode well for the
much anticipated report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics due out on
Friday. The non-farms payroll survey includes government workers and
has been inflated in recent months due to hiring for the 2010 Census …
[chart] …The June report, however, will reflect many of those workers
being laid off in the past month. In May, 431,000 jobs were added, but
without support from temporary government hires, economists are
predicting job losses in June. Last week, consensus estimates were for a
loss of 70,000 jobs for the month. By yesterday, those estimates were
downgraded further, to 110,000. With the help of today’s ADP report,
expectations have continued to fall: economists now expect a reading of
negative 125,000 …

Barron's: Why the Market Will Keep Sliding Perry D- Barron's has a nice
summary of what the future may hold in its "Up and Down Wall Street." It
summarizes as well as anything I've read recently where we're likely
headed. Bugging the (stock) market is the increasingly obvious disparity
between what the Street's incorrigible cheerleaders see and prophesy and
what's actually happening in the real world...The double dip in housing may
or may not be a template of what's in store for the economy as a whole. But
at the very least, it is a precursor of other serious disappointments
destined to feed the unease among the jittery populace, which most
emphatically includes investors.

It cites the predictions of SDK Captial's Dee Kessler:

 --the massive fiscal and monetary stimulus so liberally applied
in 2008-2009 is starting to run out of steam, with financial
conditions tightening and leading economic indicators
pointing to a stretch of "anemic activity."

--"structural headwinds," such as public and private

deleveraging, higher taxes, greater regulation and trade
tensions.

--the well-publicized woes of the European bloc, which

accounts for 20% of the world's GDP, as further evidence that
the global economy, as he puts it, is downshifting.

--The period of easy comparisons in corporate results, he

says, is coming to a close,

--"Although the fundamentals in the U.S., Europe and Japan

are worse," Dee spots plenty of downside in emerging markets
and doesn't fancy the notion of decoupling.

--Come another financial crisis, "the only policy response left

will be to print money." Which, of course, is what the gold
bugs are counting on and why bullion has glistened so
brightly.

That about sums up the outlook. The nice insight here is that anxiety over
future economic malaise -- and the additional money printing that'll be
done to mask it -- might be a bigger factor than current inflationary
pressure behind the surge in gold prices.
In other words, for the deflation-believers: deflation today? Perhaps. But
big-time inflation tomorrow.

NY Times’ Krugman: We Are Entering The Third Depression Recessions

are common; depressions are rare. [Correction: we’re already in a
depression].

Stocks: Once More Up, Then the Big Down Smith -The ingredients for a
classic head and shoulders topping pattern in the stock market are all
present. That suggests one more rise and then a massive grinding move
down to 2009 lows. Officially, of course, everything's peachy with the
economy. Europe is fixed, China is booming, consumer confidence is
rising, and we are encouraged to resume our borrow and spend ways as
the economy will not "double-dip" into recession. The economy will not
slide into another recession, we are reassured constantly, even though
roughly 80% of Americans don't think we ever left the recessionary
quicksand. Please see "Two Scoop Special": Double-Dip Recession

future gains in corporate profits? I can't think of any, short of Martians
landing and going on a shopping spree with gold they manufacture in their
spacecraft. On the negative side, we have:

1. The rising dollar is a huge headwind to sales in the eurozone and

elsewhere.
2. The low-hanging fruit of pushing the workforce to produce more output
for the same salary/wages have all been picked.

presence in the Middle East. The alleged build up is also rumoured to
involve the Israeli use of Saudi Arabian air space. It’s thought by some
to be in preparation for an attack on Iran. Kucinich: ‘We are losing

About to Break Out … Not only do us swing traders have to fight the urge
to chase price action up, but lay off the keyboard trying to catch falling

I’ll continue to rely on the understanding of my own emotions as they have
served me well. When we opened higher on Monday morning I knew I was

bought most relative strength names last week, by the end of this week you
were well underwater. So where do we go from here? I’ve got no clue, the

SUITING UP FOR A POST-DOLLAR WORLD John Browne ‘The global

financial crisis is playing out like a slow-moving, highly predicable stage
play. In the current scene, Western governments are caught between the
demands of entitled welfare beneficiaries and the anxiety of bondholders
who fear they will be stuck with the bill. As the crisis reaches an apex,
prime ministers and presidents are forced into a Sophie's choice between
social unrest and bankruptcy. But with the "Club Med" economies set to
fall like dominoes, the US Treasury market is not yet acting the role we
would have anticipated. … The newspapers are now riddled with hints that
foreign governments have lost faith in Washington and the dollar reserve
system. It seems to me only natural that after a century of war, inflation,
and socialism, the next hundred years would belong to those people who
hold the timeless values of hard money and fiscal prudence. Unfortunately,
our policymakers are not those people.’

Russell: This Is One Of The Largest Tops In Stock Market History Richard
Russell has grown very vocally bearish in recent months. Earlier this
year, Russell warned that the stock market was once again becoming
grossly overvalued despite its relentless new highs. Pragmatic
Capitalism June 24, 2010 Richard Russell has grown very vocally
bearish in recent months. Earlier this year, Russell warned that the
stock market was once again becoming grossly overvalued despite its
relentless new highs. He has maintained that the bear market never
ended and that the world is far too indebted to exit the bear market.
He also believes the bear will not end until all fiat currencies have
failed. Although I disagree with him on many aspects of the micro I
agree with his larger macro outlook. This bear market is not over.
The secular bear market lives on. Mr. Russell thinks we might be on
the verge of a terrible collapse:
“We’re now in the process of building one of the largest tops in
stock market history. The result, I think, will be the most disastrous
bear market since the ‘30s, and maybe worse.
Question: “What could possibly be behind such a bear market?” you
ask. “The stock market is stirring up optimism on a weekly, if not daily
basis, by not falling apart.”
 Answer: This is the “rest” or “dead zone” I was talking about. Bear
markets don’t conclude in a day, a week or a month. Months will go
by, often adding to the bulls’ optimism.I think the key element behind
this great bear market will be the complete destruction of all fiat
currencies. This has been a long time coming. Fiat currencies are
“wealth” created by man. They are created without sacrifice, without
labor, without risk, and without sweat. Basically they are an immoral
device, created by secretive bankers. If you watch the figures
carefully, you’ll note the subtle deterioration. For instance, the
advance-decline ratio, although up slightly for the week, had a
relatively weak performance with the Dow up several hundred points
over the course of the week. And we broke the trendline in May (see
the chart below showing the cumulative advance-decline line for
NYSE Common Stock only, which is what we publish in our figures
(courtesy of DecisionPoint — www.decisionpoint.com). The vertical
lines are Jan 2008, Jan 2009 and Jan 2010 as you move to the right on
the chart. [CHART] My old friend, Bob Prechter, is talking about Dow
400. I used to think this was an absurd joke. I no longer think it’s a

duration and extent. …’

investment strategy. Those who followed the outline have done well as the

over 5% since my initial warning. With the Dow still stuck below the

Why To Question the 2010 Stock Market Rally [Why To Question the 2010
Stock Market Rally – Web Site Archived with Charts Click Here - In the
past year, we've written a lot about the similarity between the rally of
early 1930 and the one we had through April of this year. The early
1930 rally came after the market had fallen nearly 50% in the fall of
1929. The spring 1930 rally took the market up nearly 50% again, to a
level that was only about 20% below the previous peak. That rally, of
course, was also the biggest sucker's rally in history. After the market
peaked in April 1930, it crashed again, eventually ending up down 89%
from the 1929 high and more than 80% from the 1930 high. The market
did not reach the 1930 high again for another quarter of a century. The rally
that recently ended in April 2010 came after a crash that was actually
slightly more severe than the 1929 crash (53% versus 48%). It took the
market up nearly 80% from the low! The recent rally also lasted longer
than the 1930 rally did--a year, as opposed to 6 months … ]

Dow Theorist Richard Russell: Sell Everything, You Won’t Recognize

The frauds on wall street et als should be criminally prosecuted, jailed,

fined and disgorgement imposed. If that were so, they wouldn’t be worrying
about who wins / loses since those who fraudulently play, invariably would
(and should) pay. If they’re not prosecuted, everyone loses.

POST MORTEM AND REVIEW Ricky:

A post mortem is in order. The elements of this worldwide con game are
remarkably simple, not complex at all. Apparently you only need a few
things to make a mockery of the entire global economic system, and big
banks garnered these few important things through “regulatory capture”:
1) Unregulated, unenforced rules (particularly for derivatives)
2) license to “mark to model” (assign your own values to your assets)
3) ability to peg present value to irrational expected future returns (based
on unlimited, exponential growth)
4) infinite leverage (no effective requirements for reserve capital in
unregulated “shadow” markets)
5) massive size, so that the bank is "too big to fail"
6) non-transparency and non-accountability.

SELL IN MAY AND GO AWAY!

THE FORECASTS:
Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011
The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between

Russell Napier is the author of the book “Anatomy of the Bear”, a professor
at the Edinburgh Business School and a consultant to CLSA Ltd. which is

paraphrase) that: The S&P 500 will Decline to 400 by 2014 (the Dow 30 to
3800)
The S&P 500 will then undergo a major crash that will see U.S. equity
prices bottom at almost 50% below current levels (i.e. to 400 or less; the
Dow 30 to 3800 or less) sometime around 2014 as Tobin’s “q” drops to 0.3
signaling the end of the bear market, as it has done at the end of the four
largest U.S. market declines in 1921, 1932, 1949 and 1982.

including “Elliott Wave Principle” (1978) in which he predicted the super
bull market of the 1980s; “At the Crest of the Tidal Wave – A Forecast of the
Great Bear Market” (1995) in which he predicted a slow motion economic
earthquake, brought about by a great asset mania, that would register 11
on the financial Richter scale causing a collapse of historic proportions;
and “Conquer the Crash: You can Survive and Prosper in a Deflationary
Depression” (2002) in which he described the economic cataclysm that we
are just beginning to experience and advised how to position one’s self
financially during that period of time.
Depression is Imminent
The Dow Jones Industrial Average will go down to at least 1000, most likely
to below 777 which was the starting point of its mania back in August 1982,
and quite likely drop below 400 at one or more times during the bear
market.

TED OLSON SEEKING TO OVERTURN CALIFORNIA'S PROPOSITION 8,

WHICH LIMITS MARRIAGE TO A MAN AND A WOMAN. After shilling
for the corrupt u.s. government as solicitor general, maybe he just
wanted to go straight [Just Kidding!]. There is no immunity, judicial or
otherwise for criminal acts. Moreover, there is no sovereign immunity
for non-governmental acts as would include involvement in the
illegal drug and related crimes, ie., bribery, etc., and the supreme
court has so held against foreign nations in the context of the RICO
statute but in my RICO case olson the liar would shill otherwise, not
that he really had to worry in light of the pervasively corrupt and
wastefully costly federal courts which should be abolished.

NATION NEWS DIGEST: J.P. Morgan Chase posts $4.8 billion profit
(Washington Post) Yet another ‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street!
This time it’s the unexpected jump in continuing claims for unemployment,
yesterday the downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales
report and poor retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then
there’s the fed minutes pointing to extended bad economy. Then there’s
also now the ‘goldfinger factor’ as in goldman’s middle finger. When you
defraud for many billions, paying $550 million is chump change. Goldman
shares rocketed 5.5% in after-hours trading. No wonder Goldman called it
"the right outcome for our firm shareholders and clients." (Absent
prosecutions, they’ll continue to do what comes natural to frauds on wall
street). Great opportunity to sell / take profits since much worse, also
called reality beyond the b*** s***, to come. Then there’s also the bad but
typical news; viz., previous retail sales, mortgage apps, economic outlook
down, and continuing claims for unemployment, deficits, trade / budget,
up. (Just in: 7-16-10 Poll – only 43% of Americans approve of the
Afganistan War, down from 52% in January, 2010)

Pearlstein: Can regulation beget innovation? (Washington Post) I believe

the more seminal question to be, whether american companies, consistent
with overall american decline and corruption in so pervasive a fashion, are
capable of or inclined toward real innovation where enhancements to
productivity, as well as greater profits, is the consequence as desired.
Certainly there has been ‘innovation’ by the wall street frauds in the types
of (ultimately worthless / fraudulent) paper and high frequency trade
programs enhancing their bottom-lines but little else; and, those cutting
edge ‘weapons of mass destruction’ produced or financed (israel) by
america are hardly productive in the economic sense but innovative and
profitable in the short run, and unwise and nation-bankrupting in the longer
run which we’re in right now!

Grace Kelly: Eternal fashion icon (Washington Post) To reiterate, I seldom

comment on entertainment matters; but, I also would not pass up the
opportunity to pay homage to such a ‘magnificent and exotic creature
(in the most positive sense the term is used)’ as Grace Kelly, the
Eternal Princess. I previously referenced her in the post which follows
and includes the context of the post. One might say, London Exhibit?
What? Yet, Alfred Hitchcock’s good taste and keen eye for splendor
and beauty was not lost on Grace Kelly about whom he publicly raved
(he also admitted his love for Cary Grant, but not that way. No, Alfred
Hitchcock was not a homo).

Mideast Digest: Wow! Belfast, Northern Ireland; and in the Mideast Digest
Section, of all places. It’s been a long time. While I have had some
difficulties with Irish mob in the context of litigation but only
tangential to my primary RICO action vis-à-vis the Italian mob (and
similarly tangentially the jewish mob and then primarily what I learned
to be ‘governmental mob’, federal, state, local, derivative thereby and
the sine quo non of corruption / bribery / synergy that spells decline
for any nation), it is difficult to not be empathetic to the plight of an
otherwise beautiful nation tainted only by the orange stain in that
northern quarter. After all, what hasn’t england not mucked up from
balfour to the mideast to now even their own nation having hitched a
ride on the american / israeli crazy train. As a matter of disclosure, I
must admit to an affinity for the Irish and somewhat fairly recently had
been asked what I thought of Philadelphia to which without hesitation
I immediately replied that Grace Kelly (truly magnificent by any
standard) was born there. I could think of nothing else that could
parallel such a distinction.

Congress: Gone fishing?: With the economy slowing again, scores of

nominations awaiting confirmation and major issues such as climate
change and immigration unresolved, Congress has left town for its
traditional six-week August recess. Is that smart leadership? At what
point should leaders change well-established routines to signal that
 'business as usual' is no longer acceptable? (Washington Post) [ I
truly feel and without exaggeration that the situation’s beyond that
point. Forget not the raises they’ve voted themselves even as the
nation crashes and burns. Moreover, in addition to incompetent, I
have found them, their agencies, appointees, etc., venal, corrupt, and
meaningfully lawless (see infra). Then there’s the perpetual wars
despite defacto bankruptcy of the nation. I don’t think this nation will
stand, certainly not as we knew it. They’ve made really, irrevocably
bad choices. Their incompetence is one thing; but, as I have
experienced, their corruption is quite another and totally,
unequivocally unacceptable! ]

U.S. to host Mideast peace talks (Washington Post) [ Call me skeptical,

cynical, etc., but somehow, u.s. juxtaposed with the words Mideast, peace
strains credulity and just doesn’t ring true! ] While citing obstacles, White
House expresses hope that deal for Palestinian state may come soon.

U.S. examines private sector's role in affordable housing (Washington

Post) [ I’m sorry to say that in pondering the so-called policy-makers
in Washington or in the corporate boardrooms that I’m hard-pressed
to dismiss from my mind’s eye a picture of a bunch of scarecrows
fumbling around while singing refrains such as ‘if they only had a
brain’ cirque the land of the wizard of oz. The reality is that some
basic grasp of economics, finance, business would go a long way in a
more positive sense for the nation. Then there’s those infamous
internment / concentration / ‘affordable housing’ camps that’s been
filtering through the filters, so to speak.] The Obama administration is
grappling over how much to force private lenders to pay for
apartments and homes for the poor as it presses ahead with a major
overhaul of the government's housing policy, officials said.

Officials: Karzai aide part of wider probe (Washington Post) If only he hadn’t
taken / made those calls to the Taliban, things would still be aok for
america. Yeah, they’d be ‘down with it’. You know, everything
copasetic …

Hopes … ah, yes, hopes … as in heroin high hopes, or high apple pie in the
sky hopes, or the u.s. ram that kept buttin’ that dam high hopes?
Sounds like a plan! Riiiiight! U.S. hopes Afghanistan-Pakistan trade
deal boosts cooperation in war effort: U.S. … hopes more
cooperation will aid war effort (Washington Post)
Israeli-Palestinian peace talks expected to resume in September: Quartet
to issue invitation for Israel and Palestinians (Washington Post) Ah
yes! The sound of peace breaking out all over in the Middle East. If
you don’t hear it, it’s probably owing to the latest pretext by Israel to
sabotage the same.

Mideast DIGEST (Washington Post) netanayahu admits on video he

deceived US to destroy Oslo accord The contents of a secretly recorded
video threaten to gravely embarrass not only Benjamin netanayahu, the
Israeli prime minister but also the US administration of Barack Obama.

Karzai's bid to control inquiries worries U.S. (Washington Post) [My Lord!
You just can’t make this stuff up! The americanization of Afghanistan
… hopelessly corrupt … but american ‘liberators’ want their cut from
the now hopelessly corrupt liberated nation, in america’s own image,
of the heroin trade they’ve worked so hard to restore.] There is
growing concern that U.S. support for the war will diminish further if
voters continue to see the Afghan government as hopelessly corrupt.

Obama: 'It is time to turn the page' on Iraq war (Washington Post) [ Oh
come on! How patronizing to have wobama spew his b*** s*** which b.s.
has become synonomous with wobama; ‘to give Iraqis the chance to shape
their future’… Iraq’s been destroyed, covered in cancer-causing depleted
uranium, america’s defacto bankrupt, etc. If only teleprompters had a brain
of their own. ] He says the U.S. "has paid a huge price" to give Iraqis the
chance to shape their future -- a price that now includes more than 4,400
U.S. dead.

U.S. looks to replicate Iraq strategy, tactics (Washington Post ) [Oh right!
Stick with that winning plan that worked so swimmingly (as in
drowning, in ie., debt, death, regional if not wordly anti-american
sentiment, etc.)]. In Kandahar, U.S. military officials hope that a secure
green zone, similar to the area in Baghdad, will make it more difficult
for Taliban insurgents to mount attacks to key buildings in the Afghan
city.

7 U.S. troops die in Afghanistan violence (Washington Post) [ I was

discussing my opposition to the contrived conflict in Iraq with a former air
force man with high (top?) security clearance from economic, geopolitical,
and humanitarian perspectives; and further, mentioned I had sought and
gotten an appointment to West Point (I was exempt) so I could go (Vietnam)
as an officer rather than a grunt who were being used as mere cannon
fodder as now in Iraq (I also related the fact that I am thankful, for a
multitude of reasons, I changed my mind in light of then new realities). He
replied, quite seriously, that’s what they’re there for… No they are not! But
yes, that is their unequivocal, unforgiveable attitude beyond the b*** s***
(look at cheney-5 deferments, bush-powderpuff duty courtesy of poppy
bush, clinton-draft dodger, wobama-never served, etc.. Just a destructive
waste!) The latest deaths bring to 42 the number of American forces who
have died this month in Afghanistan after July's high of 66.

U.S. officers weary and humbled (Washington Post) [ Indeed they should
be; and, if they are able to make sense of the last 2 decades particularly,
they are certifiably true american crazy, a condition in the u.s. and among
it’s war mongering allies that is found in self-destructive abundance. No
joke! And then there are the crimes / frauds. My position is also that such
frauds as the disappearance of the 360 tons of $100 bills, etc., and similar
such frauds should come right off the top, a direct reduction in their budget
allocation particularly in light of the defacto bankruptcy of the nation! ]
How Iraq vets make sense of the last seven years will affect how america
wields its military power [very poorly indeed!] .

Is the U.S. exporting terrorism? (Washington Post) [The newspaper that

never sleeps…The Washington Post

WikiLeaks Release: CIA Red Cell Special Memorandum – What If

Foreigners See the United States as an ‘Exporter of Terrorism’ [Which
of course is the reality, along with israel; you do recall those israeli
operatives who were caught cheering the 911 hit, the so-called pearl
harbor event so cherished by the neo-cons.] The document states,
“This report examines the implications of what it would mean for the
US to be seen increasingly as an incubator and ‘exporter of
terrorism.’” However, it doesn’t go on to mention the U.S. state
sponsored terrorist activities of the Proactive, Preemptive Operations
Group (P2OG).
Inside Job? Iraqi govt ‘involved in deadly bombings to get US troops to
stay’ More than 40 people have been killed in a string of bombings
that have rocked Iraq. In Baghdad alone, over 20 bombs exploded in at
least 12 separate incidents. Today’s bombings are raising questions
the Iraqi government’s ability to deal with an ongoing insurgency.
Sabah Al-Mukhtar from the Arab Lawyers Association says the
bombings may actually be the Iraqi government’s way to get US
troops to stay.

John McCain’s Attack On Liberty Chuck Baldwin | The citizens of Arizona

can do the American people — and liberty itself — a great favor this
year by giving Senator John McCain his walking papers. [First, he’s a
fraud with a long mob-connected history. Second, he’s an
incompetent mental case in the mold of ‘bolton’ et als, but all that’s
how and why they keep this compromised a** in there.]

Paul Craig Roberts: Government Abandoned Vietnam POWs Kurt Nimmo |

John McCain worked overtime to make sure Vietnam POWs never came
home. I think the even bigger story vis-à-vis mccain is:
http://www.albertpeia.com/heroenot.htm ‘Did you know that that so-called
"american heroe" john mccain was referred to by his fellow pows in
Vietnam as something akin to the "songbird" inasmuch as he was
constantly "singing" to his Viet-Cong captors to curry favor and better
treatment? This has been documented with authority by Colonel David
Hackworth. The same violates military code/protocol (other soldiers have
been court-martialed for far less) [
http://www.albertpeia.com/hackworth.htm ] But, you see, this covered up
scenario, compromizing the false facade of far less than a heroe, is exactly
what a criminal (lie of a) nation as america loves and encourages (get
everyone's hands dirty so no-one dares to rectify same, ie., bush, sr.,
clinton, bush, jr.). That is, "toe the (corrupt, propagandized) line", become a
criminal, or be exposed, prosecuted, and/or ruined; and, hasn't anyone
asked how "wall street" has been "spared the spotlight" (and even was
accorded protective legislation from their criminal culpability) and focus of
inquiry, attention, and prosecution despite being the primary beneficiaries
financial and otherwise of these scams (you know the wall street motto,
"churn and earn"; huge conflicts of interest if not outright fraud)
Karzai officials on CIA payroll (Washington Post) [Riiiiight! The roster of
allies … love of america breakin’ out all over the region … boy oh boy …
talk about creating your own boondoggles … well, they can afford it. After
all, it’s only taxpayer money and america’s already defacto bankrupt. Then
again, they have the requisite licenses; viz., to kill, to steal, to distribute
illegal drugs, etc.. Whew! Glad they didn’t act without the requisite
licensure.]

The Fraud Of Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) (Feb. 24 ...
February 11, 2009
’Dear Senators and Congressmen:
Thank you for taking the time to review the documentation relevant
to the Constitutional legitimacy of the presidency Barack Obama.
 There have been various problems with the vetting of Mr. Obama
throughout the campaign and the present. I’d like to take the
opportunity to highlight the most pertinent and alarming issues that
have been clearly revealed. I’m sure you will agree that this
information must be further investigated promptly before any
damage is done to the United States and its citizens beyond the
Constitutional compromises that currently exist. Most interesting,
though, is the fact that Mr. Obama has not simply ordered the
original vault copy of his birth certificate to be sealed and chosen to
retain three (3) law firms to defend the various cases spending a
reported $800,000 (of whose money?). If Mr. Obama has nothing to
hide, then why fight the more than 42 cases in federal courts alone
(according to Justia) and similar number in state courts of which the
merits are well-founded and substantiated through factual evidence,
state and federal statutes, and international laws? Main issue is that
the state of HI, according to statue 338 allows Foreign born
children of Hawaiian residents to obtain Hawaiian birth certificates
and obtain them based on a statement of one relative only. There is
plenty of evidence of Mr. Obama being born in Kenya and obtaining
his Hawaiian birth certificate based on a statement of his
grandparent only, who simply didn’t want to deal with immigration
and not based on any records from any hospitals. Extensive
searches in the State of Hawaii showed no birthing records for his
mother [Stanley] Ann Dunham in any hospital in Hawaii. … I
request all of this information to be forwarded to the Senate Armed
Services Committee, Senate Finance Committee, Senate Judicial
Committee, Mr. Steven Whitlock, director of the whistle blower office
of the IRS, ICE, State Department, and FBI for further investigation.
Respectfully submitted,
Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq.’

Google Yanks “Kill The Web” Article That Warned Of Internet Takeover
Having at first appeared as normal, our earlier article about Google’s
plan to kill the web has been completely de-listed from Google News.
This is completely unprecedented and underscores how keen Google
is to prevent people from finding out that it is a CIA-NSA front that is
preparing to completely end the Internet as we know it with the
Verizon net-neutrality killing deal.

Google Plans To Kill Web In Internet Takeover Agenda The net-neutrality

CIA sees increased threat from al-Qaeda in Yemen (Washington Post) An

agency's rise and fall (Washington Post) [ Gee! I was hoping they were
referring to the cia in the latter article, but no such luck. The cia’s
already covered the bases; creating enemies when and wherever they
can, real or imagined, and all the while, using the booty from their
plunder / illegal drug ops to bribe anyone who would charged with the
responsibility of stopping them. Yes … this is one of those instances
where they’re all in cahoots to everyone’s detriment. This is the way
things are in a declining / fallen nation as defacto bankrupt america
most certainly is. ]

Obama speech on Iraq has risks (Washington Post) [ Yeah, very true
indeed! The main one being that he’s supplanting that illegal,
unnecessary, nation-bankrupting war with yet another in Afghanistan
which will not be lost on those who supported his candidacy based on
 promised end to unnecessary war policies which have diverted time,
attention, ill-afforded resources including personnel and continue to
do so even as defacto bankrupt america crumbles. ]

In Iraq, a precarious time plagued by 'what ifs' (Washington Post) [ How

‘bout in america, a precarious time plagued by ‘what ifs’. What if bush et

policies. What if wobama had delivered on his promises. What if … ]

wobama has foolishly been no slouch in this regard.

Afghans still see U.S. as bad guy (Washington Post ) [Riiiiight! Sounds like a

Just being there and every day they’re there is unequivocally abject
failure. Celebritology Weekend: Angelina Jolie biography
arrives(Washington Post ) I usually don’t weigh in on entertainment
news, but this headline concerning what appears to be a disparaging,
and quite selectively so, purported biography of Angelina Jolie is very
disheartening when you consider the numerous instances of failed
leadership at nearly all very high levels of government having so
detrimental an impact on the world, that morton deems his time
appropriate to an actress who has actually tried to do good things
(U.N., etc.) without having to. Indeed, even her latest film ‘Salt’
(spectacular by any standard as is her performance – there are at least
2 winning sequels there with 4 the max and stretching it owing to age
– she puts all, and I mean all the ‘Bonds’ to shame) had an important
message in terms of the damage to this nation by a seemingly
endless, nation-bankrupting, anti-american (war criminal israelis
already, and quite correctly, globally hated) sentiment producing war
strategy that is neither strategy nor reasonably consistent with any
positive american goal / objective; but rather is such a debacle and
folly that the same could very well be one that only an enemy of
defacto bankrupt america could hatch and for the reasoning set forth
in the well-written / directed film. She astutely observed and talked
about the synchronicity of the film as juxtaposed to recent events

continued violations of u.n. resolutions, for provocations as pretexts to
sabotage peace talks, and on and on ad nauseum. Why does america
among other nations feel compelled to sacrifice themselves for the sake of
a global criminal nation with an insatiable greed and blood-thirst as israel?

Murder on the high seas JERUSALEM: Israeli marines stormed aid ships
bound for Gaza on Monday and at least 10 rights activists were killed,
triggering a diplomatic crisis and an emergency session of the UN
 Security Council. European nations, as well as the United Nations and
Turkey, voiced shock and outrage at the bloody end to the
international campaigners' bid to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza
Strip

How does anyone take the u.s. seriously in light of their credibility
problems, war crimes, etc.? What nuke technology israel didn’t steal
from the u.s., the u.s. gave them along with missile, armaments, etc..
and paid for with taxpayer money that u.s. taxpayers and the defacto
bankrupt nation don’t have.

It's time to expel israel from the UN Without doubt, the israeli attack on the
Gaza-bound "Freedom Flotilla" in the dawn of Monday, May 31, 2010 is
one of the most savage crimes in recent history. It seems the ruling
power in Tel Aviv has been afflicted with a variant of mad cow
disease; otherwise, how could it be so cruel to unleash such a beastly
raid on the "Mavi Marmara," the Turkish flagship of a flotilla carrying
medical and humanitarian supplies to the hapless people of Gaza
Strip?

commandos, the elite of the elites, rappelled to the deck of a Turkish ship

In the Middle East, it's still 1947 (Washington Post) [ Indeed it should be!
Among the few times the cia was correct, and they’ve been trying to put
square pegs in round holes ever since, to america’s substantial detriment. I
wonder what what those american sailors of the US Liberty killed by the
israelis would say? USS Liberty Survivor Threatened by Unknown Israeli
This is what happened to Phillip F. Tourney, decorated war hero and
survivor of Israel’s premeditated attack on the USS Liberty 43 years ago.
On the evening of Aug. 6, Tourney was verbally threatened by a foreign
national claiming to work for the government of israel. As for the purported
disdain shown for war mongerer netanayahu, if only wobama’s actions
matched his words, the same would represent a major plus for him and the
nation of america, so sorely in need of pluses whether the same be
budgetary or economic or geopolitical. In fact, for America to abrogate
1948 would guarantee America’s survival, prosperity, and global hegemony
in the most positive sense. ]

In 1948, U.S. Secretary of Defense James Forrestal, an opponent of the

creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, warned that, even though failure to
go along with the Zionists might cost President Truman the states of New
York, Pennsylvania, and California, it was about time that somebody
should pay some consideration to whether we might not lose the United
States. Mr. Forrestal was absolutely correct! Isn’t that exactly what’s
happened to defacto bankrupt america in intractable decline.

narrow scope of the settlement which in no way shelters goldman

Ron Paul: After ‘CIA coup,’ agency ‘runs military’ US House Rep. Ron Paul

 also personally believe there has been a defacto coup d’etat which
has manifested in various substantial, blatant, brazened frauds, ie.,
wall street, missing 360 tons of $100 bills in Iraq, war profiteering, etc.,
without any fear of prosecution, and of course concomitant decline for
u.s. as the treasury is looted. But I also believe its scope is beyond
just the CIA with many complicit within the corrupted 3 branches of
u.s. government (fed judges, us attorneys, illegal system, etc.) plus
the military and private big money, ie., Goldman Sachs / wall street
men, etc., among other organized crime. america is defacto bankrupt

complicity / cover-up), feds; see immediately after article excerpt for

being involved in this traffic crashed in Mexico…” In 2004, another
torture taxi crashed in a field in Nicaragua with a ton of cocaine
aboard… Mexican soldiers found ..132 bags containing 3.3 metric
tons of cocaine. The origination of the Gulfstream’s flight is
unknown but it was destined for Cancun when it crash landed.
Again, here is the important point: that same Gulf Stream II was one
of the very same planes chartered to the CIA for the rendition of
suspected terrorists prisoners. Gulf Stream II crashed in Mexico with 3
tons of cocaine on board ..it should not be surprising that this illegal
practice of rendition has in some part, been used as a well-run
smokescreen for another borderless illegal operation- an extremely
lucrative international transfer and delivery of cash and
narcotics.,,These flights are not subject to regular customs checks,
inspections or normal regulations as they move seamlessly between
destinations in the US, Britain, Europe, Middle East, Central Asia,
Cuba and possibly through US bases in Turkey, Greece and

laundering and obstruction of justice in the 3rd circuit ( also maryanne

Editorial: US in quagmire Seeing the warm welcome extended to the

Afghan president on his US trip, it is hard to believe that only weeks
ago Washington was seething with anger and frustration at Hamid
Karzai’s behavior and there were even dark mutterings by US officials
that he might be mad.

Murdered Unarmed Innocent People Are ‘Brave Heroes’ The
government of israel, aided by many quarters of the international
media, is attempting to spin today’s deadly IDF assault on a
humanitarian aid ship carrying supplies to Gaza as the fault of the
murdered activists on board the vessel, ludicrously characterizing
machine-gun carrying Israeli troops who killed over a dozen innocent
people as the victims of the incident.

bound for Gaza on Monday and at least 10 rights activists were killed,

international campaigners' bid to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza

Iraqi doctors demand cancer probe Al Jazeera | Iraqi doctors believe

depleted uranium from US military equipment used in the 2003
invasion is spreading cancer through the population. [This is all too
true and real; and I’m surprised this hasn’t gotten more attention,
coverage … well, maybe not that surprised ].

"What this means is that Neanderthals are not totally extinct. In some of us,
they live on," Paabo … With regard to that extinction thing, I’d say
 they’re still working on it (ultimately, decades, extinction, the
distinction, without a difference). Actually, prior to studying the
compelling subject of Biological Anthropology (Michael Park text), I
too had some misconceptions about the group known as Neandertals
(recent spelling drops the ‘h’) and actually mis-referenced same by the
stereotypical image of members of said clade even as the debate
continues as to whether they are within the species homo sapiens or a
separate species. I believe these to be distinctions without important
differences, so humble the origins and evolution of man truly are.
Parenthetically, I wonder what that anthropological scientist Heidi
Klum thinks on the subject.

Previously I wrote:

FOUND: MISSING LINK BETWEEN APES AND MAN.... These stories, and
the many like it, are old news and I subscribe to the more studied view
that there is no “missing link” per se and in my view they are
distinctions without significant differences. I previously wrote:

To Learn More About From Whence Man Came, This Link's For You

[To the Professor at the beginning of the course]

10-5-09 Postscript: Professor *****,

I felt compelled to thank you again for the add; not to curry your favor but
indeed to express profound thanks inasmuch as this is probably the last
formal course at a formal educational institution I'll ever take; and among
the most important. While I had bought at discount a library-discarded 1993
Anthropology by Embers text, though meaning to read same never quite
got to it. I am astounded by the substantial amount of time involved in the
evolutionary process, not that I ever stopped to think about it, and one
must come away with the sense of 'and all that...for this?'. This course
should be required curriculum along with psychology, sociology, etc., but
probably won't be owing to what is, as it should be, a very humbling
educational experience for any member of the human race.
 Regards,
Al Peia

[Interestingly, my intuitive (but unstudied) thoughts prior to closer

examination of the compelling subject of Biological Anthropology
remain what I believe to be the correct scenario. Specifically, very
simply stated, for the most part, the more “enlightened” (but not by
much; by mutation, accident, luck, intervention, etc.) left the
unvarying confines of their Sub-Saharan origins, experienced diverse
new environs, challenges, etc., experienced what has been described
(by neuroscientists, psychologists, etc.) as neurogenesis in varying
degrees and forms thereby over time, which trait was selected for and
is consistent with the purported multi-regional evolutionary model
which does not overtly contradict ultimately, initial African origins.
Races, sub-species, missing links, etc., are subsumed in this very
humbling and sorrowful tale of the “dawn of man”.]

Don’t Tread On Me: A Refresher Course on the Constitution

Sen. Levin urges State Department to put Afghan Taliban on list of terror
groups (Washington Post) Oooooh! … Sounds like a plan … and
emanating from washington (and a thriving Michigan jew no less) …
who says they don’t do anything? … And, consistent with that
apocalyptic vision set forth in the Bible [albeit a book of truth from a
very limited perspective (for which literal interpretations are
misleading); after all, the Wise Men thought it was a movable star that
was guiding them and shone the bright ‘spotlight’ upon the manger
with the Christ]; the jews and some other entity against the rest of the
world for that final Armageddon … oh, they’ll make that happen … it
gets them through their day with every step closer to apocalypse but
not to the place called heaven will they go. The end of this world? You
might say america / israel / and theirs are feverishly working on just
that, one way or another!
Roman Polanski freed after Swiss reject U.S. extradition request
(Washington Post, July 13, 2010) Without diminishing in any way the
seriousness of the crime, this result is the direct consequence of the
growing global recognition of the pervasiveness of corruption in
american courts, state and federal, and america generally; so much
so, that said corrupt american courts cannot be relied on anywhere,
anytime. Indeed, my own sampling, though hardly random to be
candid, is 5 for 5 (new jersey, new york, connecticut, virginia,
california) pervasively and egregiously corrupt to the point where
these costly, corrupt bureaucracies should be abolished and
supplanted with alternatives as I’ve previously set forth in prior
comments.
