Are you well diversified? Is your savings all in USD or spread across multiple types of assets, but still based in USD? If it is, you are still not what we consider ultimately hedged, as in hedged into other nations currencies which are backed by their allocations, production, resources and politics. We believe the best way to be hedged to to be spread across the 8 most respected western currencies. Those being the Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Swiss franc, Euro dollar, Great British pound, Japanese yen, New Zealand dollar and United States dollar. Rotating among these with a slight edge producing a gain above equilibrium.

This strategy uses the same free floating cash approach as all large banks, but with the tactical advantage of intermittent currency exposure utilizing a probable edge.

Think of this system as exactly the same as holding cash in a bank account, but with the ability to use leverage, letting trades sit until hitting either a Target, Stop or direction reversed. This strategy is extremely diversified and as such, is not subject to over weighted moves due to all your cash being held in a single currency bank account.

The goal of the system is to minimize the volatility associated with a traditional cash bank account. Substituting single currency volatility and buying power decay, with account stability and growth.

Jingoistic Jingoism's

Media Bred Eugenics, Part 2

One can become consumed watching the News and world events unfold in this bizarre new world.  We are witnessing change on a grand scale and evolution in every aspect at a historic rate.  Evolution is a strange thing; I am not speaking in terms of Darwinism the conventional form of evolution such as, over time living organisms develop.  I am speaking of evolution chemically, scientifically, mathematically and technically the evolving patterns and changing maneuvers. The general need and sense for development and change.  Even the most skeptic of Darwin has witnessed his theories playing out through time, “survival of the fittest” or the “natural selection”, if his theories are accurate we at some point will have to encounter a “test” the test of all tests some may survive others will not.  
     We are developing our minds, all of us, we are learning at a rapid rate.  A new born babies brain triples in size the first two years of life and continues growing till about age twenty. Keep in mind all the cells and neurons we will ever need in our lifetime are already there, the growth comes from the connections or synapses between the cells.  We are adapting and learning in our new habitat of technology and media.  Billions of dollars are spent on figuring out the best way to learn and how we can learn more, faster a superior way to learn.  Media has been a great way for information to be received by the masses.  With all the information, we now have on our brain and the hundreds of years spent researching the mind had paid off. No other time than right now has our new discoveries opened so many doors to development and research on our behavior and emotion.  Knowing just what information changes our behavior, emotion or action, is the research that is so interesting and profitable. The media has been a great way to change all, so great we do not even know they are changing us..   
When I see the Greek problems playing out wondering to myself how America would let them make alliances with Russia and the scenario of a war with Turkey, or something involving NATO perhaps ISIS invading around Greece that brings in NATO somehow.  Then I see Obama with the new and young influential Italian Prime Minister avoiding some questions and topics altogether.  I question why?  Is the US showing and proving we that have at least one allies left?  When Russia and China appear to be cutting the US off and out of the loop completely, and us with the fear of nationalizing a new currency cutting off the worlds reserve the USD, then we see news on the pacific trade open up, or how great an investment in the Shanghai exchange would boost anyone’s portfolio.  On the other hand, is the Federal Reserve so broke that they are making bets on the volatility of the Shanghais market?
 We know what they are feeding us; it is just what we will bite on that is being bet on.  Is perception of what is being shown us the key?
The 9/11 war on terror brought new ways to instill fear in every household thanks to the media (not to mention ways to infiltrate and control the masses with an express pass to enforce our “patriot act”.)  To add some extra panic they include a scale that would show the level of terrorism risk day to day in a color system so even kids could keep up, broadcasting every second along with every horror experienced.  Whatever theory you believe it is most likely true or a part of the truth behind the reason or conspiracy, as to just what exactly took place on 9/11, if you read my past work, you know where I stand.  The aftermath of the “event” (attack? Not so much) was just as traumatic then as it is today.  What it has done to this country, is irreparable.  It caused stereotypes and hatred with Arab Americans and mistrust among innocent groups.  It created fear of the unknown the “what if” and this fear opened doors for the FBI, CIA, and NYPD to allow and enforce blatant stereotyping and discrimination against the Muslim community. Fear of the Unknown, and the “what if” factor. This fear and anti-Muslim behavior, violence and mistrust forced many people to give up their faith, fear of being profiled, or segregated as a Muslim extremist.  Mosques were burned, families beaten and murdered. This was not the first time fear was used to paralyze our thoughts and control our emotions, and it wont be the last. While Americans mourned and panicked staying indoors, glued to the news, afraid to fly or go to the local store. The reality is, Americans are one hundred times more likely to die from a homicide, than a terrorist attack, or even more likely to get killed by our own  cities police unit, than a Muslim terrorist.  While terror struck the nation through media, the authorities fueled the fear and rewrote laws while the masses were too afraid to second-guess our great country.  Media drained all it could out of the tragedy and pain. The majorities of the American people are not familiar with eastern history , let alone ours. People knew little about the Middle East or Arab groups, the religion or countries.  This was a pre. Smart phone time,  most people still assumed and believed all the media and myths on our trusted news networks, believing they are true and non biased with real factual information, not just to push the market for a common interest.


  The news and our government keeps pushing us to be more divided, less communal, in turn, less powerful as a group.
Once upon a time (1983) our news media  was controlled by approximately fifty different corporations. Today it is a  private interest owned, by only six corporations. These six are powerful corporations, they do not just own the news or media they own production studios, television networks, newspapers, magazines, movie studios, anything from web sites to music labels. They have control over it all these huge six entities are not just rich beyond belief they are selling a priceless item… control. People pay for control. Social control has been around for sometime, and has been used even longer than one may think, the first use was in c. 515 BC that we know of, “The Rise of Darius to The Persian Throne”, then “The Arthashasta” c.350-283 BC, and of course, the Romans used it c.59 BC - 17 AD. It spread during the Reformation in ways never seen before with the printing press in Europe and there were thirteen American colonies that had specialized on topic for the interest of the Patriots and not so fond of the Loyalists, playing a major role in the demand for independence. It goes on continually throughout time.
Even the word propaganda has been turned into a negative, in its original sense was positive and helpful neutral and useful for information. Edward Bernays “the father of public relations” and regarded as one of the hundred most influential Americans of the twentieth century. Bernays also said, “The public’s democratic judgment was not to be relied on”. One of the most prominent political writers Walter Lippmann sat together on a US public information committee Bernays pioneered the PR industry by using social sciences and adding psychology this  popularized Freud ideas, mainly group psychology. Barclay's’ actually wrote the book on psychological manipulation, literally in 1928, “Propaganda” he even stated that, “the manipulation of public opinion was a necessary part of democracy”. He also wrote, “Manipulation ones opinion” in 1928, and states, “a technique has been developed and applied”. Indeed it has who we are what we want need how we love what we think is love it has all been predetermined for us. Not like worm wholes repeating our lives, no they are using us all working for the powers that be. So we become aware and watch learn take the “red pill” while the “sheep” take the “blue pill”.
 I have seen more and more shows and news pumping us up while we are in the hypnotic state of brainwashing watching some great new show and then another and a common theme arises every change of shows brings a “NEW THREAT” to you! Your household, the kids, the earth (the one thing that is real)... never the less a common “trend” in major shows. Like, perhaps… women in power? Seem familiar. Recently I see survival shows a lot of them, and a negative veering and lack of trust towards the mercenary groups. In the long run, the military saves the day, not the survivalists or redneck leading a city with an AK, no they are depicted as bad people and guns as an evil threat to families and always shown in the wrong hands. 
My perception could be totally off, or… they are trying to sway us, disarm us willingly, and place the idea in our heads not go rise up against the government when the time comes to, and it will. When all the people see the big Ponzi scheme, the government and barker cartels have bestowed on us just to line their pockets. They are desensitizing us to the future n new world order, all those zombie shows are just junkies ready to eat your face off when they Close America off to all other countries and resources and China has bought up all our good land and energy. All that will be left is Anarchy, Drugs, liquor and guns…our knowledge and empathy remains. I went a little too far there; however, the “what if” or disaster looming is each individual’s perception. So I will continue with the “rant” of new world order. I do not know why with all violence that we are exposed to, and desensitize by, why aren’t we just publicly hanging people that have wrecked America?... Raise Nixon and flank him till we go back to gold. Bernanke burned at the stake, or pitting him in cage against lions or Bears and Bulls, loose in some coliseum or a dome like a bad mad max reenactment! Yellen and Draghi as Master Blaster…Michelle Obama as Tina Turner, now I have to post the video clip of that.

I could be way off. Perhaps they have a plan, and it is for everyone to unite, peace love and freedom, America Land the free, rich happy and healthy. They will have every person rise above middle class, and issue high tax for the rich they will even take a ten percent cut for just one year. Every banker and government personal will do it, just to fund low-income schools and include theater and art classes or days that they cut. Sad thing is they could… for every school in the nation… for the next fifty years. The pessimist I am, I just kind of lean towards them being greedy and see them more or less wiping out the middle class setting up their life in luxury while we the 99% just hope… as they manipulate us to believe if we do what is being said, we need to… and in time everything will be ok, someday.
  Now we know the public perception is the focus for swaying us through media, how the public responds to information given is the key. The concern in this is finding the concurrent high points of some information then when other information being introduced. This information is what advertisers and the powers that control all seek. What action will cause a reaction, most of all just what will the reaction be? The public’s reaction is what the big boys bet on, profit from, and invest in. The media has become the ultimate advertising tool pushing products and bias information, then acting as rivals while supporting the same globalist organizations pushing a product. Thirty years ago, The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) director Dave McGowan stated (who also was murdered shortly after he stated) “The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone and any significance in the major media”. The CIA has advanced in every way since then. One can only imagine what the CIA could have control over with the new technological advances combined with physics and science, biology, and chemistry, the breakthroughs have been historical recently and keep growing  The list could go on and on. Knowledge of Humanity and the way we think and act are mapped out; we have learned so much about our cells and body, and our brain finding why and how we do what we do. 
We still do not know so much about the mind, humans are complex, and though most behavior is predictable, some is not. the aspect of free will and unpredictability’s of sadness, empathy, and  love, anger, hope and lust are emotional and each of us express these differently. Fear however, is a much more predicable human response, more of a fight or flight formula to manipulate us with. Tragedy sells, the collapse, ruin, and war, disease, money, the loss of the hopeful gain, false reassurance, and outright lies, all fed to us in a multitude of ways, redirecting or behavior to serve their greedy interests. The stories we have been told all our lives may hold some truth, more a piece of the puzzle or a guide to the truth. The tales of mythology, religion, even poets, and art have altered our perception throughout time. Even fables, songs, and fairy tales can been depicted in many ways unveiling racism, sexism, and control, etc. The common thread in all manipulation is, good and evil, heaven and hell, white and black, these all have two sides to every story, all the things we have been told and learned are depicted and swayed by the storyteller, we will never find the whole truth, time has buried most information with the motives and greed mankind constantly seeks .
  Truth and fiction become irrelevant when profit or desperation becomes involved. 
H.G. Wells wrote about social engineering though sports and back then, people may have thought he was crazy when he wrote of a tribal system that was needed for men, engrained in us primitively a need for a tribe and leader, an Alpha male. As the emerging expert class arose, man would be more disengaged from what you would call a tribe or his own destiny. Sports though radio and adding a stadium in every city gave man the outlet he was subconsciously seeking, in the hypnotic state of a new cultural industry. The Soviet Union even had what was called a culture industry. The actors and directors of media and film were called the "cultural leaders", because they could control the public. This was the psychology behind control because humans have a need to belong; a need to be liked wanted and accepted by our peers, we are easily programmed by a scientific dictatorship. We have been programmed as if machines manipulated so much we cannot even determine the difference between “real wealth” and what we are programmed to believe “real wealth” is. When did owning even leasing a Bentley become a better investment than land, education, family, or medicine, even free will? The pressure to have material possessions, a bigger house another car or truck, a better life, is not just a pressure, this has been instilled in us so much that now advertisements are making fun of the blatant brainwashing of these unobtainable social status.
 For the 99% what we see the lavish lifestyles lived is an unobtainable social structure and status, it is a distraction for the masses, something to strive for and keep going, set up so you remain unfulfilled and keep working and spending. They want you to spend not save that is not what our economic structure is based on. They want and need you to max out your credit take a mortgage out, even a second or a third, all so, you will not have any true assets and you will keep paying on that interest. Media does more than take your money for various purposes it drives you steering you and guiding your next step.
 I see more and more people taking the “red pill”, seeing the media for what it really is a tool to control us. People have learned that investigative journalism is just associated with different specifics, not truth. What the media says and shows you may just be a movie set or even actors, even the energetic newscaster pushing a new company, you now may know is their sponsor. Media is a tool and like everything have two sides and two ways of looking at it and two ways to use it. Alternatively, the public can use it to their advantage as well. The information is out there, just some codes will be easer to crack, others much harder. An informational puzzle and all the pieces, what they are discussing and selling or buying, it is the history and relationships all of it is out there. However, it’s more “why” they are broadcasting it, selling it, or buying it, the true history not what is told to you the real relationships between people. 
The public is waking up to the fact we have been living in a nation opposite of everything we were told America is and what it stood for, the opposite of what we have learned in school from teachers, parents, peers. Our history has been rewritten to conform societies and create a mass of human machines to program. . A false nation built with blood and greed, manipulation and power. Our history like our nation is false, made up, altered by fake governments, fake rules, fake leaders hand picked by Oligarchs and bankers in a fake democracy. Our fake judiciary system with its fake laws designed so though Oligarchs, bankers and government can rob you blind without due process or even court orders, then the powers that be can rob them. Our Freedom? Fake, our amendments? Falsified, and rewritten, our authority Fake, a nation with the backbone of our proud constitution reworded and altered so they can serve there own control and strip us of power and our true rights even our own choice. What do we have left that is real or ours truly? Knowledge and the right to bear arms and defend ourselves (for now). There are many upsides in our new god we call media in this lawless run nation. Knowledge is power, and we are curious creatures with instincts for survival to protect our legacy though our children.

Bred Media Eugenics




Government through propaganda has been brain washing us in various ways, feeding us lies and keeping us just comfortable enough to stay unaware of the hypocrisy run nation, while they reap the benefits and manipulate us.  We are in a new age and we have a new idle, the Media, and the powers that be are racking what we do all the time, on our private personal time.  They are fitting us in to a particular demographic ideal for marketing and swaying us to buy, sell, look at, and even feel.  Big brother has gone to a whole new level; they even release endorphins when you walk into a specific store, designing ways to enhance your shopping experience so you will spend more.  We are a consumer-based nation.  It is so specific they can predict an estimated date will need and purchase certain items.  Billions are spent a year just to find out what kind of bath tissue you buy.  Think of every time you search the web, every site you search, your face book,  twitter even your images are loaded in to informational software categorizing your life and predicting your future, profiling what you post, look at and you every privet aspect, the thousands of external factors.  It is invasive in many ways to know that advertizing and manipulation is becoming tailored to fit just me.  We see this in new technology all the expanding and overwhelming unimaginable advancements, the ability to use robots to achieve what man cannot.         
 These advancements have caused people to become obsessed with technology and because these robots are so advanced, they are able to penetrate our lives on a subconscious level, these advancements as wonderful as they may be have massive side effects.  Information and knowledge breed power and control and those combined breed money.  In the wrong hands technology can do more than we can even imagine, the most outlandish, bazaar, even evil ideas or thoughts, the darkest places hiding in ones mind, technology can enhance, bring to life and fulfill those ideas.  It has been in the wrong hands throughout its existence evolving faster than humanity ever could, with many great minds combined it like us evolved learning and serving its masters faithfully.  Its has been bred to control the masses we are just slaves to the masters on a grand scale.  It controls us day to day, influencing us, pushing us, we just assume it is our choice our false free will.  We are desensitized to the subconscious rape-taking place and we seem so unaware.  Google can now predict the ways the market will move due to what searches are entered.  They are marketing our thoughts and fears taking our freedom and making us comfortable seeking the unknown.
 It almost could be the greatest social experiment ever.  I am not even touching the NSA or FBI spying on us without a court order, breaking everything America stands for.  This is just a small area in the mass amounts of media manipulation when it comes to advertising and marketing data.  Many people never read the applications you download or sites you use, you sign a waiver when you click on, download, or sign into those sites.
 Nothing makes me smile more than watching blatant yellow journalism on the morning news.  News has become a fundamental tool for the powers that be, a true way to steer the money.  While few see the big picture, they will never research the correlation between specific people or money that rules us all.  The corrupt ways of what some call a democracy.  I have read some amazing theories about what is to come, 2015, 2016, and every other year.  For the most part, I am pessimistic when it comes to the US and the out come of us or hope for humanity.  In turn, the information I research tends to be the same story repeatedly, “this year it will be the end of…”  “The world,” “the market,” “jobs,” “schools.”  Or it is…  “This time it will be the worst…”  “The biggest bubble ever!”  “The most catastrophic!” and “this time it’s like no other”…Now of course they push…  “Things will never be the same.”  The theories can be incredible, some very interesting and some just make you realize how uneducated many people are, for the most part they all have the same element, Fear.  It maybe brought to you by the (in a game show voice)…The USA, FED, Russia, Toyota, wait I got it, Tesla!  KGB, China, The DONG or kittens, Iran or it is possibly Alien government with unicorn technology! Fact is, it won’t matter who or what is doing the pushing, it will only matter why you are being pushed in that direction, what the final goal would be.  Therefore, we evolve, expanding our mind relearning what we once knew with a whole different type of perception.  understand this is like a game for the major entities and like any game some of the players are key the to winning, most are useless bench warmers, a small part of the game as a whole the bigger picture for the team has a audience and owners and that where the money is, because money is the win.  Even when a game is rigged, some they lose well the other won that is the beauty of it all, there is always a winner.  You just have to watch see if they threw it, why, who and what that benefited in the long run.  You will find the major players, the teams are not big but there are many, so learn the game, find what team you are on and watch closely at how their game is run, stick with a strategy, not just your own but look for the end game, get the team’s strategy because some teammates have and know the winning moves.

Litmus test



This week has proved to be one of the most jaw dropping and thought provoking weeks for myself. Last year I wrote about the direction of the USD on a geopolitical scale, my thoughts on Russia, China, and Iran not what we see or hear on the censored news or some crazy outlandish one sided conspiracy site.  I have tried to be neutral and non-bias (hard to do) my opinions are however backed by real facts and my attitude towards society and government, banks and corporations justified.
            Let me begin by stating the obvious that I am concerned about…Did no one see the Russian Ruble and Chinese Renminbi as a pair in the currency futures trading!  Putin has been on a massive de-dollarization campaign since he left the petro dollar last year.  His meetings with heads of countries like China and Iran along with many others including North Korea sparked my interest as he spend a large percent buying up massive amounts of gold from the Shanghai Bank instead of saving the Ruble as oil fell.

America is being  marginalized.  While the American President has been reforming immigration and healthcare, he has been in complete denial in regards to pissing Putin off and making more enemies than any other president known.  Our allies are disappointed and now China and Russia are teaming up and let us not forget whom we are going up ageist.  I wrote last year the Putin was putting a team together and now we see this all coming together as conflict in Yemen grows Iran and Syria seem to be looking to Putin as not only a new partner but as a major solution. With all the chaos and team antics that Putin is up to between the US president and the real people running things the US bank Cartel they will not let the USD fall this week for fear that it will show weakness. Even though generally we see the correlation between the USD and oil, I don’t feel this time we will, price manipulation trumps all in times like this

That Janet Yellen is quite a GUY! Part 2



“Give me control of a nations money and I care not who makes its laws”
~Mayer Amschel Rothschild

The decision made by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) today is fundamental to the direction of the USD and the US economy. The market responds to the FOMC meetings and anticipation of their decision to raise, extend, or lower the Federal Funds interest rate. The FOMC also makes the decision to increase or decrease money supply. We have seen them increasing money supply since 2008 purchasing long term treasury and mortgage backed securities and quantitative easing (QE) and it has caused interest rates to fall to zero percent, the lowest rate possible. The FED spent eighty-five billion a month buying up those securities. In the last few years the have cut back by ten billion a month. The playbook the FED has been using has been misleading trying to fight economic weakness by using a synthetic form like (QE).
If the FED wants economic growth, they decrease rates. Too much of anything is never good; going to any extreme is very bad. An economy that grows too fast leads to inflation. The increase in rates would slow the economies growth, too slow leads to a recession. Any change in the Federal Fund interest rates will impact us all; even the domestic public will feel the effect with the cost of credit. It will impact the direction of the USD, and how the US economy performs overall. Our economy is barley a float and I am being generous in that statement
Seven years since the crash, Yellen may be forced into a hike; the longer it takes for the inevitability of increased rates the harder the recovery will be. The impact would change everything on a global scale. Could the FED even risk a hike? They will have to raise them eventually, and what better time all the numbers are lined up. The USD is in popular demand. Everyone wants USD this leads to an over stimulated demand. Fact is, finding USD counter parties for swaps is difficult, and a raise could help. If they don’t raise people may abandon the USD, even though the FED would never admit that. To raise or not to raise that is the question. Since the FED is independent what is best for them? The FEDs choice really has nothing to do with the economy and stability of monetary polices. This is about the bubble of government debt that cannot be serviced at a higher rate, even if the US had the tax base to do so. The wages report proved we can’t afford to service the debt, if those numbers are even close to the truth. It is a lose-lose situation.


The anticipation has begun. We already see investors who bought high price stocks pulling out before the FOMC meeting. This time around, bonds are no longer a safe haven; the European Union (EU) and the FED have set the market up for a crisis, a historical bond market collapse. The mass (QE) in Japan and Europe has created a runaway dollar making real US economic recovery impossible. The FED is running out of options. Force the domestic public to buy treasury debt and get low yields bankrupting the people. It could be the reverse bankrupting the FED with high rates in interest and mass retracting of domestic cash availability. The economic activity would be crushed by the Treasury’s detraction of five percent off the GDP. Under a mandate, the FED has to pay any profit that acquires from the interest rate increase back to the Treasury so government pays zero in FED held bonds anyway so the raise would not really benefit the FED or impact the government the way one would think. They keep talking about a small rise. Just a one percent rise in interest on debt would total around one hundred and eighty billion dollars added to the FEDs interest. If US Treasury bill becomes too pricy for the government, they will need to be bailed out by the FED and then the FED buys up those expensive bonds. This buying would be a domino effect of disaster, starting with forcing the USD in to the system by QE4, then hyperinflation, the US dollar would be buried. Everything would collapse however all the debt would be gone. This may be the idea, they know much more information than we can even imagine, this could be the “master plan”, the real reset right around the corner.
Will they monetize debt and risk mass inflation? They would piss off every bondholder in the world causing unpredictable consequences. I personally don’t think they will raise rates, not yet and probably not in June. They could go lower, however negative rates are discouraging to investors. They would issue QE4 before they lower them. The risk of negative rates would rip apart the US defecate, the financing costs would be immense. Negative rates would show just how bad it is and I doubt the United States would pay a premium for foreign investors to have cash in the US. If recovery is possible, true economic recovery will never happen with negative rates, and they know that. The increase would cause a political frenzy, voters who have never even thought the raise could effect them will be looking at all the politicians demanding an explanation looking for someone to blame, the derivatives market implodes and it becomes clear that these trusted politicians have been piling the bank derivative liabilities on the United States taxpayer.
The FED has a limited historical perspective on what a healthy functioning financial system really looks like. Have we seen a healthy economy? Do we have a clue what normal bonds look like? An economy where we put money into a CD or account and get paid to save our money. To better our economy as a whole, a normalized economy. The years of manipulation and bailouts have desensitized people into bad decisions with their investments that didn’t even make sense to begin in the first place. Bonds and stocks have been pushed by the zero percent interest rates at unsupportable levels.
The market is overvalued and if the FEDs decision were based on real data as much as they claim, the rates would have increased a while back. We already see investors who bought high price stocks pulling out before the FOMC meeting. Yellen may push the decision back till June in realizing the massive momentum of equities sell offs. The market has already reacted. With little regard for yields, big money ran out and bought up overvalued bonds, praying the FED will extend the decision till June. This time around, bonds are no longer a safe haven. The European Union (EU) and the FED have set the market up for a crisis, a historical bond market collapse. Manipulation of bond rates from trillion dollar swaps has been the course were on, it would be harder to reverse it now. The raise would cause the bond market meltdown and a market crisis. Bonds have been the life support for banks. If they rise rates an even a quarter point, like they are implying. On a one percent yield, big money would dump all bonds paying at one percent and buy up the one and a quarter. It would cause instability with the bond market, and this bubble is getting bigger and bigger. The end of QE caused an international tsunami into US bonds. They may not have a book that can help this time.
Truth and lies move the market the most; sadly, one isn’t different from the other, the truth, or the lie. It doesn’t matter what’s real or not because human behavior is what you trade on or invest in. Behavioral, social, Industrial, all psychologists and analysts, teams of them all put together with specialists in marketing just to predict what you do, say, how you feel, live, dress, but most of all…what you will spend and spend it on. Let’ say for instance you spend on the market, well they know what you are going to purchase, sell or watch and “they” the big money bet on it. Government runs our media and how and what we believe to be real, news, trends, politics and finance. The decision starts today and with the housing numbers so dismal it looks like an extension and more “patience” is in order, how convenient.

It will be a panic driven recovery

Bubblicious

Governments unlike the big banks and the Federal Reserve do not have the luxury of keeping the bank scheme continuing as long as they can anymore, factors that once padded the same pockets is now harder to manipulate to benefits all parties involved. Government has elections to face, the voters with new links to real facts and information and media influence run by government. Many big businesses believe that half of anything is better than nothing at all, even just the idea that you can save or gain can be enough, the illusion that you may still have control over your money can be attractive to anyone. This is just what is happening with the big banks trying to salvage and preserve any of the actual asset debt by deflating the fiat debt, with derivatives and swaps, this ongoing process has create a global bond bubble bigger than we have ever seen. This is the compromise to avert the disaster looming, the paper millionaires will be the fist to feel it after the banks. The loss of their gains that were never real to begin with will be appeased by banks reducing their debts and the feeling of them "gaining" will pacify the real loss of all. The real question is what will cause the collapse in the global economy, inflation or deflation?
The biggest credit bubble is on the verge of bursting and we all know that the results will change the world forever. Governments used to love inflation because they are for the most part the "borrowers" so they can pay back the borrowed money far into the future with inflated money. Banks on the other hand used to hate inflation when they actually had to hold on to the loans they made now they pack and sell off the loans they make with little to no regard for the default rate or logistics of the details. The natural outcome would have been deflation from the banking crisis of 2008 , it would have lead to real business growth for the small majority, yet it would have cost the established powers that be their christmas bonuses or positions. The powers that be (TPTB) cannot have that. The complete asset forfeiture crash in 2008 was avoided by a hand out, half of our world's money given to banks, this has created a negative tenue within government and banks. This cycle we are seeing deflation then inflation only occurs when you are dealing with debt based fiat money. The banks are not any better than the cartel or drug dealers handing the ignorant a bag or a lifestyle (debt) and you are in it, stuck with it for life with no way out.
really it is disinflation, then stagnation, followed by deflation, then you get inflation across the nation, looms a dangerous fixation, with a finale of hyperinflation.
The Federal Reserve (FED) has an agenda and that is devaluing the US dollar. The FED has told us time and time again that inflation is good for the economy. Now the head of the FED Janet Yellen is admitting that deflation will be a positive thing for the economy. However, the Debt deflation is the FEDs worst nightmare,because the truth is that the economy is not what Yellen is concerned with. The real concern is the bonds interest rates, the $191 trillion that Wall St. banks and U.S. have in derivative trades. The obsession the FED has creating inflation allows government spending without going bankrupt and debt deflation would for sure wipe out big banks and the U.S. altogether. The main focus is to keep interest rates to be low as possible because a slight rise even one percent means hundreds of billions more added on to the already massive payments of U.S. debt.
Miss priced assets have lead to multiple markets manipulated by what we think has value. Possession is law and fraud is the status quo now. Banks insured by the FED, with the extensions of the commodities clauses that the Dodd and Frank Act has enabled the banks to gain control profitably. Supply and demand, the general order of human innovation, increasing productivity and the real assets that can be bought and sold and we wont really see deflation even though it is there with the things we need because those things are real, like food and medicine, unlike the swaps and derivative that are truly phony assets. There has never been a solution to scarcity, not monetary, fiscal, economic or political. Currencies can and have died, the scary thing is this time it is on a global scale. Death of our currency is close but it wont just die quickly. It will be a horrific struggle with massive denial and a fight to the death. Most people are earning half of the loans they owe. Loans for houses or cars that are three times what they are worth. People have more money in debt than in savings it is just a matter of time before people see that fiat currency is merely currency, not real value or money. For a while, currency will have increased buying power then people will start to get it and see it is being inflated, then the currency will collapse in buying power, while the buying power of money will be maintained. The only way to get ahead is to ride it out you buy into deflation and ride out the inflation.

"State of Division" Obama's 2015 pitch


      I do believe that behind closed doors the squad of political show dogs of our government are all together alike, a league of corrupt teammates stroking each other ego's and pushing for a common purpose. For the most part they all get along and give a certain amount of respect to another when and where it is due . However, after Obama State of Union address last night big government appears to be more divided than ever.
     The frustration and hatred was tangible by the newly formulated republican clique. John Boehner sat behind Obama awkwardly, refusing to applaud or stand. Showing obvious disagreeable facial expressions while holding back eye rolls as the president spoke. The pretentiousness of Obama's ego seemed to be fueled by the energetic applause of the Democrats. Biden was Obama's cheerleader, hanging on every word with nods of approval constantly showing his suppot. Obama used a tactless approach of fabricating the facts and commending himself with admiration by exaggerating the positive aspects of our nation that his administration took credit for. It would be wonderful to think all that pazazz and energy  Obama showed would have come during his presidency, flooding back into our nation writing new bills, passing, vetoing and changing laws all to better our nation and people. The sad fact is much of what he said was just plain inaccurate.
      He brought up how close we are to closing Guantanamo Bay. They have been trying to shut down Guantanamo Bay since 2008, spending millions on each individual there and even more on trying to shut it down. Many anti-American terrorists are proven to be recruited from there. Obama, if you are going to threaten a Veto or executive orders just do it! Jobs for the vet's that come home has been big issue, they fight for our country but when they return can even find a job to support their family. While we are happy to hear about the increase of jobs for our vet's as they return. On the other hand I could bet if we handed them the money we are spending and have spent at Guantanamo it could quite be around a million dollars each. Even if they spent some, if any of the capital it took to get the closing approval through congress. Now that really would be beneficial to them. Obama has majority in the Senate and in the House, he could have closed it many times in his terms. Could you just imagine all that money spent on our vet's and their family's would have given them the reward they deserve, our patriotism would skyrocket out of control, enticing so many people to enlist and fight for our country.
      Obama didn't mention anything about our debt problem and finding a long term solution for it. There wasn't real talk of economic growth and equality.. His points were wonderful and if he was campaigning this would have been a great speech. To be so egocentric while in your last years, enough to say that he set aside more waters and public lands than any president. That is true, however lets focus on the word "waters" because up until last year his four predecessors had set aside more acres than Obama. Even George Bush trumped him. Out of six years the last year Obama expanded the Pacific Remote Islands National Monument from 87,000 to 490,000 square miles. The expansion is mostly water. Any "saving" of our land and setting it aside is a good thing. It just is odd that he did it so fast and the location in mid-ocean doesn't have much fishing, drilling or extraction of underwater resources that the "saving" protects. Making such a bold statement that  "he set aside the most in history" made him look like he had been doing it for years, not just his last. Not to mention that the government can sell them to privet interests, to pay off debt from military or war anytime.
       The power trip continued when the "growing" economy was brought up, smiling as if he didn't know the facts many people sat unmoved knowing the truth. Our median household income is only four percent higher than it was December 2011, when we bottomed out and still almost five percent lower than December 2007, when the recession began. The hourly earning rose 1.7 percent in the last twelve months. Research states that it is still half the rate for achieving a "healthy Economy". New jobs in Internet, technology, media and many mid-level jobs grow in general with the population. We are generating jobs, lower paying jobs that people have to work harder for. There are 1.7million less workers with full time employment than 2007 when the recession began. Since the "end" of the recession, the employment rate has been steady at around two percent, that is barely ahead of inflation. The typical rate for a healthy economy is around four percent so it, still below where we NEED to be. Seven years later and we have not recovered.
      Energy was a big topic and of course we have been working on alternative energy since 1973, fracking was at an all time high until the oil crash, now the Federal Reserve will have to bail out the fracking debt along with oil production debt. We can then blame it on the Earthquakes or something like weather.
      The parties that bankroll both sides all know none of these reforms he is proposing will pass. I would love to believe that he truly cares about the individual at the bottom, and middle class. Obama knows having a republican Congress and Senate will prevent the passing. All the high fives, his statement that "Crisis has Passed". The only thing that has passed is any hope for real economic growth. The worlds media obsessed and just believe what is said, the powers that be keep people blind and comfortable. Besides tax, the reason they made marijuana legal and push prescription drugs is to keep citizens passive high on one drug or another. If  people all knew what is really going on and how corrupt the world really is, whats really coming it would be chaos and instead of investing in the market people would buy guns and gold and stockpiling food and weapons.
     The reality is we went from six trillion to eighteen trillion in debt, yes the yearly "deficit" has been shrinking , the DEBT was never addressed, big difference.

For every action there is a reaction.

Hello fellow traders!
     What an incredible week we had. Just when one thinks the markets can't get any crazier, Swiss associated pairs go ballistic. Luckily zero parameters were met to signal a position in any of the Swiss currency pairs.Whether this was just luck or this happened because my strategy somehow 'knew' not to be in those pairs I really don't know. I think what happened was my strategy waits for specific situations within pairs so the price will move rapidly in a given direction, and perhaps the Swiss National Bank (SNB) also knew this situation existed and timed the information release to take advantage of this. Hence a move that magnified beyond most imaginations. The Swiss Franc moved 17% on average against the Eur, Gbp, Usd, Aud, Cad, Jpy. This in turn moved the Eur which is direct competition, an average of 8%.
     By the grace of a higher force we have been blessed (hopefully) with the parameters having been met to buy the Eur/jpy pair. First the pair has sold off so much, I can not imagine there are any more traders able to push the price lower, nor is there anymore stops to be run (if you believe in that). Reading over other traders forecasts on the Eur/jpy, it looks like most of them are calling for a push lower, talk about missing the boat! I could see being scared to trade the Swiss Franc and maybe the Euro, but calling for a push lower seems improbable.
     Helping out our positioning early this morning, Germany's Bundesbank announced the continuation of repatriations of gold from London, New York and Paris. Bundesbank specifically declared 120 tonnes of gold was transferred from Paris and New York, 35 & 85 tonnes. To me this seems as though this informational press release was done to reassure the world that the Euro has a solid foundation and to help recoup some of the massive sell off that just happened. Looking at charts, the start of the rebound seems to coincide perfectly with the time I believe the information release was made. Along with this information, a repatriation  timeline, table was also released further showing their commitment to stabilizing the Eurozone.
     In case you have been living under a rock, the European Central Bank (ECB) is meeting Thursday January 22 over deposit rates, refinancing rates and a bond purchasing program. This program would consist of purchasing €550 billion ($640 billion) of bonds, independently through each nations national bank, the purchases will represent 20-25% of the individual nations debt. Greece will be excluded since their bonds do not met the minimum criteria. If this bond purchasing happens which is most likely, I think the Euro could get incredibly strong against the other major currencies and create a massive up swing for our long Eur/Jpy trade. Let's cross our fingers.
     Let's go ahead and keep holding our position and hope for the best and reconvene tomorrow or later this week.

They issued VE ...verbal easing


        Since 2008, employment gains have been declining, and just this year they have started to stabilize, effectively pushing the unemployment down with the solid employment gains.  Gains in employment were the highest this last November than they have been in the last three years.  Online ads for jobs increased, indicating employment gains.  Surveys came back stating that many jobs were available and were much easier to obtain.  The indicators were encouraging in the anticipation of the reports.
The numbers came back and for the most part, they looked good, then they looked a little closer.  For eleven months straight the payroll increases have been up above 200k, those numbers have not been that strong since 1994.  The Economy has generated the strongest number in new jobs since 1994, and showed 50k more than the forecasters predicted.  The economy looks to be positioned for strong growth in 2015.  In fact, the numbers were so good they almost deemed America fully employed by FED standards.   
Despite all the optimism in employment, weak wages took the spotlight and the softness in earnings that fell drastically.  There really is no obvious fundamental factor that can explain the numbers that were reported.  They listed excuses and blamed a “seasonal fluke” in the retail trade sector.  This time they couldn’t directly blame the weather.  Job quality was not good as well, creating disputes as to what exactly these numbers could mean.  Updated adjustments will of course be released further, most likely while some catastrophic event is taking place to distract us, from the outright manipulation of the numbers, as they always do.
 These statistics and reports are just a reason to issue or delay the rise of the FEDs interest rates, or a justification of QE printing to monetize debt.  These numbers and reports can be perceived many different ways.  They have the ability to manipulate what information is presented and how the surveys are handled. The numbers just do not add up.
 We have roughly 47 million people who get food stamps and inflation with food prices continue.  Many people still live paycheck to paycheck, less than three percent of Americans make over 75k.  Jobless claims rose to 299k.  Jobs in the energy sector had the highest number of job cuts since 2012. With a population, around 316 million and 94 million are not in the labor pool how can we be close to fully employed.  America is still in massive debt and the FED has many people waiting to see if they will raise their interest rates.  The verbal easing Yellen keeps spewing has become intolerable.  One person will say they are raising rates is what will happen then the other will say no that we will wait.  The reality is that if they do raise the rates the trillions in bonds, trade derivatives would create a mass of bank runs and the same banks that control the FED wall St. banks would implode.  It would also crush equity markets the many corporations that took massive loans to cover there debt and had to buyback shares.  The impact would be devastating for the main players, most of all the FED would become unable to control the economic conditions.  The FEDs policy is really designed to take wealth from the largest population and has systematically been wiping out the middle class.  They do not really care about the numbers of employment or income they want to keep the current financial system just the way it is.  The FED will protect it’s self and the banks, they know that foreign cash will shrink the long-term rates and they can always print to cover their own debts if need be.

ECB Roadside assistance, AAA cant help


ECB Roadside assistance, AAA cant help
Two European Central Bank (ECB) meetings are coming up and traders should take note.  The first is a meeting on January 7 on non-monetary policy, the other a very important meeting is on the monetary policy followed by a press release, and a maintenance period that will last until March 10 to guarantee that the appropriate funds are available for those decisions. Statements and leaks have indicated that the ECB is going to use Quantitative Easing (QE) to purchase an abundance of government bonds.  Alternatively, they would have the central banks purchase so the country or countries individually would take on the risk of amount borrowed or owed separate from the interest.  They could buy bonds that are AAA rated these have little to no risk of default.  The AAA rating is issued by credit rating agencies; these bonds have the highest creditworthiness and guarantee liability.  Only four companies were left with an AAA rating after the financial crises in 2008. It seems over and over we see failed attempts on monetary expansion and all the monetary measures have been used up. They keep trying to offset deflation by printing and borrowing while weakening currency and eroding the economy.
            The ECB declined to comment, however Peter Praet, ECB chief economist had made many indications that these options are what is being considered. The Prospect of more QE has the EUR/USD dropping searching for any support. Wall street is feeling the impact hitting the biggest fall in the last three months. Commodity currencies also felt the panic, and U.S. treasury yields fell, many found a safe haven in the USD and JPY. Between the ECB meetings and the low numbers from Germany and possible withdraw from the Euro by Greece, the Euro has a long road ahead.

They just didn't have enough Greece to make it run properly



In 2012, Ebrahim Rahbari and Willem Buiter CitiGroup’s Chief Analysts came up with the term “Grexit” a blend of Greece, Euro, and Exit.  Following the Financial crisis in Greece it was acknowledged that they might be leaving the Euro, predicting that more money lent would hurt the Euro and neighboring counties and the Grexit would be the only other option than differentiated government bond yields.  In 2012, De la Rue a British money printing company was rumored to have been printing out the fresh drachma, which takes an estimated six months from time of order placement to printing on paper.  These rumors and fear created a nine-month money withdrawing frenzy.  It was estimated that Greek banks deposits fell by thirteen percent constructing a plan to impose control on the movement of money anticipating more panic with upcoming elections.
Convincing the people of Greece to leave the Euro to support a currency that will potentially collapse was not the only challenge.  The economic depression that this would cause would end with slow economic growth for many, not to mention the hardship the Greek citizens would face.  The Deutsche Bank stated in 2010 that Europe accounted for twenty-five percent of world trade; it was the largest trading partner between China and the United States.  Speculation that European stocks would plummet fifty percent and other nation’s bond yields could widen 100 to 200 basis points leaving them unable to service their own sovereign debts.
            The Euro has hit a nine-year low, for many counties and regions unemployment, flat growth rate along with low inflation it seems impossible to reduce the debt levels that would help shift this trend.  The Eurozone is better assembled than it was in 2010, The Eurozone can handle the exit without a massive hit because the privet sector only has about five percent of Greece’s debt, and the government is better equipped with bail out funds ready for such events unlike five years ago.  However, this has nothing to do with the unpredictability of the people, investors, and stability that will directly affect and hurt the Euro and the ECB.
This has become not only a financial matter, it now is highly political.The upcoming elections on January 25 in Greece have sparked some not so inviting tones from France and Germany.  With new prime ministers in Italy and France ready to reform their nations in ways that have gained total support of Germany’s Angela Merkel, who has insisted European-imposed austerity on nations who really need the complete opposite. January will be a hard month for the Euro to regain at strength, too much is uncertain and unanswered. Many questions will be pending on the candidate Alexis Tsipras, who may soon be the youngest Greek leader at the tender age of forty with a left-wing alliance Syriza on his side it seems that they deem to diminish the austerity measures. This threat is creating disorder among Eurozone members. If Tsipras is elected it is not certain that Greece would exit the Euro but it is implied. Could Greece leaving the Euro cause a ripple effect and open Pandora’s Box to many other counties assuming their role?

Are you all paying attention, or just paying?


  “Hope
Smiles from the threshold of the year to come,
Whispering 'it will be happier'...”
― Alfred Tennyson

New Years brings many emotions and ideas among the masses. For some a new beginning, a start over, even hope.  For others it is a great excuse and a safe way to justify actions taken, or lack there of.  You will see a breakdown of ways the market will benefit and turn around after the New Year. When it comes to financial New Year, only about 65 percent of countries have the fiscal year (financial year) identical to the calendar year. For the most part largely traded companies worldwide follow the calendar year, with a few exceptions in the UK, New Zealand, Australia, and Japan.  For many countries there, fiscal year starts in April or July, those and many markets will not see the volume like the U.S. will come January first 2015. The U.S. had the first quarterly report come out and the numbers are looking great. Of course, they are positive that the second quarterly report will be even better. With no talk of interest rates from the FED, at least for now, we see a bullish market with all the holiday spending and anticipation in the “New Beginning”.
The National Association for Business Economics estimate a 3.1 growth in the next year. This has not taken place since 2005, since 2003 we had not seen economic growth like they reported, with the 5 percent yearly rate up from July to September this year.  However the faster the growth the faster the FED will try to raise the interest rates that could mean more vested interest from overseas. The accession of capital would increase the USD, causing other countries to struggle destabilizing their currency, making it hard for the entities to pay back the borrowed greenbacks.  This highlighting once again how disconnected and isolated the U.S. is from the ebb and flow that other countries are going through. Consumers in the U.S. drive growth, and favor the slow growth of other countries.  The numbers being pumped out seem to be fuel for investors to find a safe place in the USD.  With reports of the most jobs in fifteen years, saying America’s debt has declined to the numbers of 2002, ect.
Yet I live in the U.S. and just do not see it, I see unemployment everywhere and students with Master’s degrees unable to afford to buy a house, car or even find a job.  Now all we will have to do, is let them brainwash us into believing that they do have a plan to clean up our world, straighten out the economy, that it is not all a ponzi scam to rig the markets, take our money and enable QE4 (Quantitative Easing, round/phase 4) as quietly as possible.  While they convince us that of course, it has nothing to do with oil, money, or power. They seem to leave information out when reporting the statistics on economic growth, for instance how most of the GDP growth in the third quarter was spent on Obama care, they love to leave facts out.
 How will the FED get away with more QE or a raise in interest rates?  For starters they have to make the economy strong so QE4 is not an option or ineffective.  The fear that the FED will lose control is evident as well as manipulation of the “fundamentals” doing whatever it takes to save the market and their own piles of cash.  Now the world is watching there circus mesmerized and disgusted by the tergiversated attitude we see.  While they go on deceiving us, socializing the losses and privatizing profits, and completely misrepresent there intentions.  It is time to show and prove, and so far we have seen first hand what QE can accomplish.
They will have to straighten out Japan a little; because if Japan is the prime example for success of the FEDs great plan.  Japan was whom the U.S. was ensuing for years.  Japan the archetype for the great USA.  The FED may need to go back to the drawing board, or The Doomsday Book, what ever works for them because Japans situation is just a denouement of QE.  We should see the YEN getting stronger even though there own numbers have not been the best, they did take a hard hit with that large increase in sales tax last quarter.  That raise took a hit on consumer spending, and wedged them into the recession they are experiencing.  They are cleaning up the mess and doing what it takes to stimulate growth by Japans CB buying up financial assets and government bonds to advance inflation.  Let us not be so naive the U.S. is heavily invested in Japan and many of the counties that are suffering and we do have an amazing amount of power with the reserve currency being USD and the petrodollar we will not let some fall too hard. Fast growth may not always be the best, we need to stabilize and adjust to the change, rapid rates sometimes cannot be controlled. The lower oil prices benefit the U.S. spending, creating a way for many people to save and invest in assets, or the market. Lower oil prices really benefit Europe and Japan by expanding the economy globally.

Liquid Gold

     While on vacation in the middle of the eastern Oregon checking in now and then to see spot prices.  I was not too shocked to return to the same thing that took place last week.  Gold is moving quickly, oil is the main initiator here, as I wrote last week, that TPTB would not let it get lower than $75.  Thursday it was $74.42 if the prices remained low it could cause a major problem for the Keystone pipeline and make it financially undo-able, the break even price for the new Canadian oil production is around $85, already up and running producers can do it for much less but this affects all the new projects.
     Is it really a surprise when it came down to the release of this passing, that we see oil rising.  The Democrats are now standing behind the approval for the Keystone XL pipeline.  All we have to do is sit back and wait for the president to sign it, since he is in Asia he will get to it sometime in the next week.  Even though Congress might try to take the responsibility away from Obama, he is the only one who can approve it because it crosses international borders.  The question every broker and oil executive is wondering, will he pass it?  Legislation's like this in the past have been vetoed and frowned upon by the White house administration.  The pipeline is a major concern for the environmentalists that the Canadian extraction could worsen global climate changes and threaten the U.S. waterways.  On the other side, this is huge for the U.S. to become energy independent, creating mass amounts of job growth that can lead to a strong U.S. economy and we are in extremely different circumstances than when this bill was pushed in 2008.
      We know that gold tends to follow oil in the market and the indicators to make calls happen fast.  With the rise of the Euro and the dollar longer than it should have been we have to add in all the factors that sway PMs for instance we have the Swiss Gold Initiative coming and traders on high alert waiting the vote, but many already assume it will be a no.  The physical gold moves the market way less than the digital kind.  Let us add GOFO Gold Forward Offered Rate, kind of a way to swap gold in return for USD a lease to own dollar rate.  However, there is not an interest like on a lease with a borrower and lender where the lender gains it is more of a swap because the lender is the one paying a rate of interest.  It is not the spot price of gold; it is a subtraction of LIBOR corresponding values.  These swaps are made from one up to 12-month periods.  Shorting mass amounts of gold drives up the lease demand and that GOFO then is lower.  There are no supply problems for contract and the idea of leasing metals appeals to many especially when they see the contracts lower than spot price like we have.  A negative GOFO shows that demand for the swap is high; this could be for lack of inventory by COMEX or the futures offered by the SGE.  These indicators with the GOFO could be that big changes in the PMs could be on the horizon, even if the demand is just so traders can short gold the GOFO has shown the bottom price before could it again?

Red Pill, Blue Pill = Bad Trip



If you want to believe the surge in oil prices today are a direct reflection of a strong economy, you are sadly mistaken.  A huge pipeline exploded in Saudi Arabia.  Prices fell under $76, possibly the U.S., Israel, Iran, Russia, or ISIS blew up a pipeline to increase the value of oil.  Yet the government stands firm that it is the increasing deflation in our economy.  Most likely, it was someone like Goldman amping up their Christmas bonuses.  This could be the most transparent administration we have even seen; the GOP could not even wait twenty-four hours to move the price of oil.  When oil prices fall, it hurts the GDP, and that the new senate just could not have that.  Our world is looking like some mainstream action movie with conspiracy, shooting down planes, deadly viruses, and terrorists, domestic and foreign.  I mean ok, the elections are over let the destruction begin, first up red team raise oil, bomb something!  Now increase the price of health Insurance and monopolize it ASAP.
 Seems there are no repercussions for all of the bold ringleaders, blatantly unleashing these catastrophes on the world, why are the people so blind to facts and numbers.  It is no wonder they want to legalize marijuana, it is not just the tax that states make millions on each month, really it is the only true hope we have for the economy.  It has to keep us blind to the obvious conspiracies and manipulation generated by the Administration and their Central Bank club.  The market was down, oil was down, oil goes up market is at an all time high, not really rocket science. Now with McCain head of senate let the chaos of military spending begin. What do we need now? A war with Russia would be great, they do not buy many bonds, and we are already liquefying the Ruble, making Putin unappealing for China and Iran to align with.  Higher defense spending is about to be the new normal, most of the GOP is ready and waiting.
We could just be so naive that there may not have even been a pipeline explosion at all, they could have just closed it off to shift the demand.  Oil manipulation is an odd one, you would think that with everyone having a phone and how into our “live” media and You Tube coverage that we are in touch with all of it.  I have been on the set of movies and helped with digital imaging and voice-overs.  I have seen what people can manipulate with technology, even if you see it and hear it; the simple fact is it may not be real.  How many times do you think “they” have gone into a country or village to gain information or resources and said it was for something very different?  Need more money with oil, bomb, or close a pipeline then buy or sell.  Need more military spending create a war?  Need to know what China’s technology is capable of, poof make a plane disappear.  It goes on and on. What we are seeing with metals is just another fine example of mass manipulation.

The Lesser of Two Evils



As Americans today is a very important day, as midterm elections come to an end, so do many politicians dreams for change.  The social issues that most Americans vote on, or are concerned about are the least important to the masses.  I am not saying that gay rights and abortion are not worth campaigning and voting for.  This year you may want to hold back your own personal donkey vs. elephant emotions, because how the FED is run, is on our table for a vote, this could be the most important issue we face historically.  Could the FED and its interest rates be run by congress for the first time in history?
 This is what people should be worried about, if you have money in a bank, these issues should be what your main focus is on.  That the interest rate polices would no longer be controlled by the FED.  These issues are huge; in fact, this election is the first time we have seen members of the GOP issue bills like this.  Even when a bill to audit the FED was introduced 2012.  We saw what challenging the FED did to Ron Paul.  The FED is running our economy, so lets put aside our emotions about these social issues and understand what is really on the ballot here, the less active the FED is the much stronger the USD is.  We are seeing this now, the USD is on a four year high, this is because of many factors. A few of those factors are the announcements about what is happening with the FED and its decisions to end QE.  The negative interest in Europe and now this legislation challenging the FED, we see the USD rising with people’s new sense of security in the market and economy.
            The outcome of this election, which if the GOP takes the office, the FED will have to answer to someone, means its days of control will be limited.  The GOP has yet to control the senate since the 2008 crash.  That does not say too much, since the democrats have been in control we are also massively in debt, even though we also have not seen a crash like that since.  For any group to change the position of the fed, it could be a potentially suicidal situation.  If the FED raises the Federal funds rate this would destabilize the economy all the leverage and carry trades unwind, the stock marked sells off, because of leverage the prices would crash.  On the other hand, spending money is the power congress has.  Lowering interest expanse, congress is empowered to spend more created and taxed dollars by the trillions.  It is kind of a lose-lose situation.
Elections should be a way to win and make changes without a fight or war, yet who can win when our leaders are lawless and we can only choose between the lesser evil. If you look at past elections and the puppets that America has, all of our presidents since Kennedy have been CIA run.  Regan just read the teleprompter, Bush… need I even comment, even Obama who I was all for until I looked at the facts.  Throw an election where we have someone like Putin up on the stage, no writers or hands in his pockets, just someone fighting and believing in us, in our country, not for all the corrupt aspects of money.
As an American, I do pride myself on freedoms that we have, everything from choice to ability.  However, there is a major price in this delusion, because we are brainwashed daily, media forces our belief system and desensitizes our souls.  Hear no evil, see no evil is how we view the world.  Even though we think we are free and that our votes are worth something, it is all a dream in a very corrupt world. Once we all wake up and see what is really happening, I do not mean your status on face book, we may really make a change for ourselves and nation.

Green-spun out


Gold and economic freedom are inseparable”-Alan Greenspan
             Let us just say that economic growth falters or asset prices start to fall, then what?  What will happen to the market?  Would the FED just start printing away?  The end of QE and the bond purchasing program not only drops the bond markets and overvalued stocks, it makes silver and gold look extremely bearish. Many factors could be playing into this with the Swiss Gold Initiative, Ebola, fear and other geopolitical concerns. All of these affect the market in an odd way since we see a huge demand for gold, yet the price is falling with demand growing, it hardly seems right. The analysts will do the blame game, and try to make sense out of it, who better to blame but the FED. Especially convenient when past members of the FED are blaming the system that they created or put in place.
  Greenspan stated that the FED’s balance sheet “is just a pile of tinder” and gold is a good place to invest, because he feels it will rise “measurably” in the next five years.  After 19 years at the FED, seems odd that he would slander the way they have been handling things, even with his successor Bernanke still in power, yet he said the FED “fell short of its goals” when it came to economic growth and unemployment.
 Alan had been on or near wall street since the 40s and knows his way around money and economics. During his time with the FED he used standard Taylor rule of economics, that every percent that inflation rises, the central bank should raise interest. This was not the view or beliefs Alan had from the 1960s. Greenspan seemed to have been a huge advocate for gold, in fact he published an article on Gold and Economic Freedom in 1966. Some of his statements in it are jaw dropping knowing now what he has done while in the FED, saying gold was a great way to save your money and was pumping up the gold standard. Just like what he is stating now, yet in 1966 gold was $35 an once.
 This was of course before he was a member of the FED or a consultant for President Ford, Bush and Regan. At this time his job and focus was being an economic consultant for his own company, backed by beliefs non-existent of his time in the FED.  From 1987 to 2005 Alan did not partake in any broadcast interviews unlike Bernanke his successor who makes regular public statements trying to gain assurance of the media and people, trying to gain transparency instead of the secretive past of the FED.  Greenspan before and while serving in the FED was also Director of Foreign Relations and served as director of huge corporations like JP Morgan, Mobil General Foods and many more. He even assisted Nixon as coordinator on domestic policy. Alan was regarded like a rock star to politicians and the financial world, until some bad calls were made, then the subprime mortgage crises that tarnished his reputation.
What is Alan really saying that you have less than five years before the market collapses, so you are welcome for the QE handout, now move over to gold?  Greenspan may be feeling guilty for the years he helped drain the money supply; he now is on a buy gold campaign when he is clearly a monetarist.  He is a major manipulator and is a key player in where we are today and 4 trillion dollars in debt.  Now he goes back after all we have suffered though, as if we do not know that PMs are a way to insure our money.  Is he just talking to the elite, because he knew the way to grow the economy in 1966 and did a 180 turn.  What is really happening here is major market manipulations; they sell paper gold from $1300 down to $1200. Manipulators are then guaranteed volume to be able to buy at traders stops.  Then they buy back positions at $1200 (if they can see the order books) then make money again when it rebounds, voila.
