In the s, the totalitarian fear was that some overenthusiastic government agent would go to the library and pull your library card to see if you were reading seditious texts. Of course, the East German Stasi went to those lengths to spy on its citizens, but there was never any real danger of it happening in the US.

When the Black Market Becomes the Real Market Martin Armstrong. Black markets appear whenever an official market has become overregulated or otherwise unworkable due to governmental interference. They then thrive in direct proportion to the failure of official markets to function freely. They are, in fact, both a barometer and a checks-and-balances system for official markets. It was developed by economists Robert Mundell and Marcus Fleming in the early s. In its simplest form, the Mundell-Fleming model says that a country cannot have an open capital account, a fixed exchange rate, and an independent monetary policy at the same time.

It can have any two out of three, but not all three. A country that attempts to have all three will fail in one of several ways including a reserve crisis, an exchange rate crisis or a recession.

When writing an article about the recent move in bitcoin, one should probably not begin by preparing the chart images. Chances are one will have to do it all over again. It is a bit like ordering a cup of coffee in Weimar Germany in early November One had to pay for it right away, as a cup costing one wheelbarrow of Reichsmark may well end up costing two wheelbarrows of Reichsmark half an hour later.

These days the question is how many wheelbarrows of US dollars one may need to pay for a bitcoin. A huge crash is coming. This is a bold call, for sure.

While many think the chief executive has the ultimate power to steer our economy in the right direction, he or she can only do so much. But the blame game is useless. The Real Reason Behind The Qatar Crisis Is Natural Gas Tyler Durden. However, as often happens, the official narrative is traditionally a convenient smokescreen from the real underlying tensions.

China has reported annual growth rates since the panic of of between 6. Waste is a blunt word referring to non-productive investment. It may seem unusual that an economist would talk about culture. Usually, we talk about prices and production, quantities produced, employment, the structure of production, scarce resources, and entrepreneurship.

So what is culture? Well, to put it simply, it is the way we do things. This can include the way we eat — whether or not we dine with family members on a regular basis, for example — how we sleep, and how we use automobiles or other modes of transportation.

And of course, the way we produce, consume, or accumulate capital are important aspects of the culture as well. China is currently modifying the terms of its oil trade with Saudi Arabia. Specifically, China is working on a deal to pay for Saudi oil using Chinese yuan. This effort poses a direct threat to the security of the dollar. You can revisit Jim Rickards article about the Assault on the Dollar, here.

China is in the greatest financial bubble in history. Yet, calling China a bubble does not do justice to the situation. This story has been touched on periodically over the last year. If you make the right moves now, you could be well positioned even as Chinese credit and currency crash and burn. The first and most obvious bubble is credit.

The combined Chinese government and corporate debt-to-equity ratio is over to-1 after hidden liabilities, such as provincial guarantees and shadow banking system liabilities, are taken into account.

There's No Painless Exit From The "Fake Faux Financialized" Economy James Howard Kunstler. A most curious feature in the current low state of American politics is the delusional thinking at both ends of the political spectrum. Both factions have gone off the rails mentally, and the parties they represent race toward oblivion like Thelma and Louise in their beater car. More ominously, there are no new factions with a grip on reality even beginning to form anywhere in the background — as in the s when the Whigs foundered and the party of Lincoln segued into power.

America Has Become a Total Joke Michael Krieger. Cover-up suggests a passive activity. The correction has begun…. The correction has begun with the uneasiness of the two political scandals surrounding Trump — Russian meeting and now a Comey memo saying Trump asked him to kill the investigation into Flyn. The first is not really an issue legally, but the second could fuel the quest to impeach Trump which is really led by McCain and Graham behind the curtain in league with Schumer.

McCain is already calling this a Watergate demonstrating he is out to get rid of Trump and protect the establishment. The impeachment of Trump is being talked about behind the curtain as a positive move for then Pence would take up the Presidency and then the tax reforms would become possible.

Natural News Man-made climate change has become a quintessential symbol of hot-button American politics — the divide-and-conquer issue of our day that never fails to rile up folks on both sides of the debate.

Residential house prices from Abu Dhabi to Zurich have spiralled as hot money travelled the world looking for a home.

It seems the action seen this past week has bears scratching their collective heads once again. With many viewing the market as certainly "topping" back in March, the market has doused cold water on those expectations, as I had been strongly warning would likely happen.

Since holding the support we noted several weeks ago at SXPX, the market has seen quite a powerful move back up to the target we set between and SPX. And, most of the rally was seen on the back of short covering of those who jumped the gun on the bearish side of the market. Any jackass can kick a barn down, but it takes a carpenter to build it.

One jackass oops we mean expert after another, has been predicting that this market is ready to crash. The problem is that these brain surgeons have been making this argument for so long it almost sounds like the definition of insanity.

Insanity boils down to doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for a new outcome. These predictions are so off the mark that they make a broken clock look fantastic which happens to be right once or twice a day depending on whether you follow military time or not.

This market is unlike any other market; it has moved from being the most hated bull market to the most insane bull market of all time.

In such an environment technical analysis is technically trash and fundamentals are fundamentally flawed. Her own economy is already significantly larger than that of the US on the PPP estimates.

Harry Houdini was the greatest escape artist of the 20th century. He escaped from specially made handcuffs and underwater trunks, and once escaped from being buried alive. Now, Janet Yellen will try to become the greatest escape artist of the 21st century.

Yellen is handcuffed by weak growth, persistent deflationary trends, political gridlock, and eight years of market manipulation from which there appears to be no escape. Yet, there is one way for Yellen and the Fed to break free of their economic handcuffs, at least in the short run.

From tech stocks to high gas prices, Goldman Sachs has engineered every major market manipulation since the Great Depression -- and they're about to do it again.

The End Of A Year Global Debt Super Cycle Is Way Overdue Michael Snyder. For more than years global debt levels have been rising, and now we are potentially facing the greatest debt crisis in all of human history.

Never before have we seen such a level of debt saturation all over the planet, and pretty much everyone understands that this is going to end very, very badly at some point.

A common sense approach to bankruptcy is the recognition that no matter how much money you will be able to acquire you cannot possibly ever pay it back to your creditors. This is not what is required for a government regulating agency to declare a banking facility bankrupt, but it is a valid depiction of the state of our national debt and our ability to reduce it to a manageable quantity.

The level of taxation that would be required to eliminate our national debt, liquidity risk stock market is climbing by astronomical numbers, would put such a strain on the fiscal ability of most Americans to survive we would instantly revert to a third world status. This is the danger we are confronted with by a free spending government unwilling to restrain its reach.

Bonds have risen in a 35 year bull market. That bull market looks tired and probably peaked in July of Gold prices could soar if Donald Trump says any one of these five things Nigam Arora. A safe-haven effect could kick in if he tweet-storms his foreign policy once he takes office.

Gold prices could extend their gains after Donald Trump's inauguration if he continues to make statements as president that prompt investors to enter safe havens. As president-elect, Trump has angered China, India and Mexico, some NATO countries and, just this long weekend, Germany over its luxury carsto name a few.

Gold prices in New York trading have risen In my last article, 'How Globalists Predict Your Behavior'I outlined the primary method globalists use to measure public consent, or, public dissent. The use of macro-analytics and the hyper-monitoring of web traffic is a powerful tool at the disposal of the establishment for gauging shifts in public consciousness in real time. For example, in early the elites were entirely aware of the rise of conservative and sovereignty movements in the U.

At first, this notion seemed a little odd to me. They certainly never suggest that there is a massive undercurrent of nationalism ready to topple the globalist structure.

A Shift in Expectations. There is a reason Vladimir Putin and the Russian top political echelon has been avoiding the media following the onslaught of allegations lobbed at the Kremlin, and Trump: The stock market shot up like a Roman candle for idiotic reasons after the election. The candle may have reached its apex when the Dow hit 19, Thirty stocks do not an economic system make.

Sorry Fox, CNBC, Bloomberg, CNN etc. Trump's Ignorance Hugo Salinas Price. The president elect of the US, Mr. Trump, does not know what he is doing when he proposes protectionist measures to encourage the reindustrialization of the US and bring home again, the American industry that emigrated to foreign lands. The US lost their industry as a result of the Bretton Woods Agreements, which were signed under pressure by representatives of the usd inr live chart countries and of the countries conquered by the US in World War II.

Those Agreements established the world's monetary system for the post-war world, after the victory of the Allies, which was already in sight in In reality, the payoffs are almost always contractual obligations, often for deferred compensation, that the companies vigorously try to avoid.

Surviving The Aftermath Of The Market Economy Adam Taggart. What we'll need to persevere through collapse. Historian and economist David Fleming undertook the writing of Lean Logic a grand vision that projected out the likely path of collapse for our currently unsustainable way of life, as well as the key success factors society will need to cultivate to come out the other side. Sadly, he died in with the ,word manuscript still in draft form. How Economists Can Stay Relevant Under Trump … Economists are going to have to approach things a bit differently if they want to stay relevant in the Trump age.

Political economy research is going to become more important. And they should look someplace other than the federal government to test their ideas. When we observe the greatest follies of our predecessors, the episodes of speculative madness that come most immediately to mind are the pre-crash bubble peaks of, and to a lesser extent, Unfortunately, we are in the midst of yet another episode of equivalent speculative madness, but one that will only be recognized in hindsight, and in the recollections of our children.

They too are likely to take pride in a feeling of superior knowledge, forgetting the same lessons, and eventually creating another bubble and collapse of their own. The herd mentality is human nature.

That also is human nature. It has only been two weeks since Christmas, and already we are witnessing a stunning bloodbath of store closings. The downward spiral of Sears hit another landmark when it was announced that another Sears and Kmart stores would be shutting down. And we have just learned that The Limited is immediately closing all stores nationwide.

All over America, vast shopping malls that were once buzzing with eager consumers now resemble mausoleums. We have never seen anything quite like this in our entire history, and nobody is sure what is going to happen next.

Hey, why should they? The banking elites have done the job they set out to do, which was to drive the economy to the very edge of the financial cliff, and then keep it suspended there until the general public became comfortable living next door to the abyss.

The US is bankrupt: BALTIMORE — People can believe whatever they want. But sooner or later, real life intervenes. We just like to see the looks on their faces when it does. By that measure, may be our best year ever. Rarely have so many people believed so many impossible things. Automaker General Motors GM used to have an assembly plant in East Baltimore. Then one Friday in Mayat 4: Some eyes misted up. Treason of the Highest Order-Why Is Obama Still In Office?

President Obama has placed every American at grave risk this morning with the virtual decommissioning of our aircraft carriers, by placing them all in port at the same time. This is treason and it is national suicide. Before we can understand the gravity of the siutation, it might be valuable to examine a prior event in our history that can shed some light on what Obama has just done. In Part One of this article I discussed the failure of our brains to think rationally due to our biases and the relentless propaganda flogged by our Deep State ruling class.

Viewing the future through the looking glass of the Fourth Turning keeps you focused on the three catalysts which will drive all events in and beyond. Now I will make some guesses about what might happen in related to Civic Decay and Global Disorder. A couple weeks ago I was lucky enough to see a live one hour interview with Michael Lewis at the Annenberg Center about his new book The Undoing Project.

Everyone attending the lecture received a complimentary copy of the book. This was a completely new direction from his financial crisis books. Hamburger Hill Captain Hook. The Battle of Hamburger Hilllater made into a movie directed by John Irvin, refers to the epic, but completely unnecessary, Vietnam War engagement between the US and South Vietnamese and North, aligned with China a proxy warthat saw huge casualties suffered on both sides of the equation.

It was a bloodbath. The boys were ground into hamburger. All for Wall Street greed. Of course some may view such things as completely necessary, because we humans are competitive creatures. What's more, it's not as if we have progressed in any way over the last half-century. In fact, it could be argued we've regressed. But it's all so much more civilized these days - no?

We don't have wars anymore - we have guised crises, interventions, and peacekeeping missions that must be supported in the name of democracy - all the while America and friends still exercise colonial rule. The "fake news" is that we've never been healthier, healthcare costs are under control and our economy has fully "recovered. We've heard a lot about "fake news" from those whose master narratives are threatened by alternative sources and analyses. We've heard less about the master narratives being threatened: We think the markets have it fundamentally wrong.

US investors are anticipating a cyclical shift towards economic expansion via new tax incentives, business de-regulation and Keynesian government spending that promise to increase output, demand and asset prices. However, there is a far more influential driver of future asset prices — a structural shift that has begun but has yet to be acknowledged by economic and political authorities, and, judging by financial asset markets, by most investors.

We expect weak equity markets and a strong treasury market beginning in Technocracy is the basic agenda and plan for ruling global society from above, so we need to understand it from several angles.

Consider a group of enthusiastic forward-looking engineers in the early 20th century. They work for a company that has a contract to manufacture a locomotive. On one level, workers are required to make the components to spec. Then they must put them all together. These tasks are formidable. That truism applies to China. Huge profits will be made by those who see this China train wreck coming and act in time.

The idea of economic stress in China sounds strange to most ears. But, recent news reveals that corporations could be taking it too far — and we all could pay the consequences.

It would make it impossible to know how safe the market really is, right? Launched way back inthe USDX is the dominant and most-popular market gauge of how the US dollar is faring.

Since Election Day alone, the USDX has soared 5. But the post-election USDX surge is still far more extreme. Because of the vast amounts of dollars flooding the globe, it has great inertia. The USDX usually moves with all the sound and fury of a tortoise, leisurely meandering around.

When that position becomes overrun, or when one of the large commercial shorts JPM decides to cover and run, there is no possible way that the masses will not suddenly awake to news of this market moving.

A Silver Tsunami Is Coming…. At this point in the cycle, the silver market should be relatively easy for the average person to enter.

Prices are beginning to move back toward natural supply and demand equilibrium, as large disruptions are occurring between the positioning of dominant futures speculators that have kept futures prices entrapped for nearly 6 years. There are numerous debates about money: In recognition of these debates, I'm referring to "money" in quotes to designate that I'm using the Federal Reserve's measure of money stock MZM.

Nowadays, "money" is often credit. The government pays for its programs with borrowed money as well, by selling sovereign bonds and spending the proceeds. And the Dow at 20,? Stock indices are frolicking in record territory. The Dow has been titillating the entire world, day after day, with the prospect of finally, finally hitting 20, after being just a hair shy of it for two weeks. So it would seem that the IPO market would be hot. But for IPOs, has turned out to be a fabulously terrible year.

That makes two years in a row. Last year at this time, I wrote that the IPO market in had been the worst since the Financial Crisis. I quoted Sam Kendall, UBS global head of equity capital markets: While the global bond markets have begun to correct their 35 year bull market, the major U.

Debt increases, more dollars surge through the economy and those dollars are plugged into stocks, bonds, and higher consumer prices. This is one of the most important articles that I have written in a long time. The strange events of the past year and a half have befuddled and mystified many, and in this article I am going to explain why America has been given a temporary reprieve. If you go back to JuneI warned my readers that major financial problems were imminent, and sure enough in August we witnessed the greatest financial shaking that we had seen in seven years.

I remember getting emails from my readers applauding me for absolutely nailing that prediction, but we were all concerned about what was coming next in September. If you will recall, there was more buzz about September than any other month that I can ever recall.

The Euro Is Heading For Parity With The U. The collapse of the euro is accelerating, and it looks like we could be staring a major European financial crisis right in the face early in That represents the lowest that the euro has been relative to the U. Ever sinceI have been relentlessly warning that the euro is heading for parity with the U.

I just kept warning people that the euro was going to weaken greatly relative to the U. Here is one example from March The euro is heading to all-time lows. It is going to go to parity with the U.

Not that there is anything wrong with Mr. He plays the game, just as everyone else does. The steel magnate in his command center. And he even has a crystal ball! Obviously, that explains a lot. China is important to US companies. In the first three quarters this year, GM sold 2. I was chatting with a good friend who works at a pension fund. He said that pensions are historically overweighted in stocks right now.

And becoming an expert at each is easier than you think… Read More. The fact is that the eurozone is coming apart at the seams and the only tool left to delay the inevitable is easier money.

As the following chart illustrates, the euro has been declining sincewith the descent accelerating lately. And more is coming. The only way for Italy, Greece and possibly France to keep it together is for their currency to plunge relative to those of their trading partners, thus making it easier to sell domestically-produced stuff abroad. The latest consequence of economic mismanagement in Europe was the failed attempt at constitutional reform in Italy this week.

The EU and the euro project have been an economic disaster for all participants, including Germany, which will eventually be forced to write off the hard-earned savings she has lent to other Eurozone members.

We know, with absolute certainty, that the euro will self-destruct and the Eurozone will disintegrate. In earlyroughly at the time when this blog was launched which coincided with the start of the greatest monetary experiment of all time, we warned that there are two ways it will end: Now, almost 8 years later, some of the world's top hedge funds are in agreement, and they are worried. As the WSJ reportsthese prominent hedge fund managers join an increasingly bigger and louder chorus which says central bank bond buying programs that are pumping trillions of dollars into global markets will end badly.

I have been watching the parade march by and after months of contemplation I have the following comments concerning the next 2 to 3 years. The election itself was not as important as the fact that a large percentage of the population has come to realize that we are on a course that cannot continue. Middle American decided that things must change. Dissatisfaction with the status quo is really what the election was all about.

Corporate insiders know more about their companies than anyone else. And they are not buying this rally… at all. A total of 3, insiders at Russell companies have unloaded their own stock in the last three weeks, while purchased shares, according to data from The Washington Service, a Bethesda, Maryland-based provider of insider trading data and news.

This surprises almost everyone…. What you own is a promise from the bank to repay you. And that means a bank bail-in would probably burn you. A bail-in is when a bank recapitalizes itself by tapping its creditors. That includes all of its average Joe depositors. Italians are about to find this out the hard way. The euro has already fallen to a 20 month low, Italian government bonds are poised for a tremendous crash, and futures markets are indicating that both U.

A version of that is playing out in Europe today. Italian banks are in deep financial distress as were banks in Cyprus and Greece from to The global elites are using negative interest rates and inflation to make your money disappear. The whole idea of the war on cash is to force savers into digital bank accounts so their money can be taken from them in the form of negative interest rates. One way to avoid negative interest rates is to go to physical cash. In order to prevent people from using that option, the elites have launched a war on cash, as recent events have borne out.

The war on cash is old news, but it is escalating rapidly… Read More. The Vile Despicable Tactics of the Left James Quinn Liberals have always portrayed themselves as the champions of the people.

There's No Painless Exit From The "Fake Faux Financialized" Economy James Howard Kunstler A most curious feature in the current low state of American politics is the delusional thinking at both ends of the political spectrum. For example, many Americans that are on Medicaid are also on food stamps, and many Americans that are on Medicare are also on Social Security.

But even accounting for that, most experts estimate that the number of Americans that are dependent on the federal government month after month is well over million. Bix Weir View Video.
