De-Dollarization Accelerates: Russia Launches SWIFT-Alternative Linking 91 Entities. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Three months ahead of schedule, Russia announces the launch of its own 'SWIFT'-alternative, linking 91 credit institutions initially, suggests de-dollarization is considerably further along than many expected (especially as Russia dumps US Treasuries at a record pace).

A Moral Code For The Post-Collapse World. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. From “24” to “Breaking Bad” to “The Walking Dead,” American minds are being saturated with propaganda selling the idea that crisis situations require a survivor to abandon conscience. What we see developing is an extremely dangerous philosophy that rests on the foundation that victory (or survival) is the paramount virtue and that it should be attained at any cost. Moral compass becomes a “luxury” that “true” apex survivors cannot afford, an obstacle that could eventually get one killed, believing that the “survival of the fittest” is more important than the survival of the principled. However, if we cast aside our principles in the name of victory, then, ironically, we have still lost everything. If there is such a thing as the “greater good,” truth and honor must be the apex of that vision.

Central Banks Have Lost Control Of The World. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. With the world's oldest central bank - Sweden's Riksbank - taking the plunge into negative rates, there have been 19 'eases' by central banks this year, Morgan Stanley warns of "ghosts of the 1930s." With competitive 'easing' stoking fears of international currency wars, The Telegraph notes however that looser monetary policy is not the order of the day everywhere in the world, and herein lies potential danger for the world economy.

Russia Dumps Most US Paper Ever As China Reduces Treasurys Holdings To January 2013 Levels. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Back in December, Socgen spread a rumor that Russia has begun selling its gold. Subsequent IMF data showed that not only was this not correct, Russia in fact added to its gold holdings. But there was one thing it was selling: some $22 billion in US Treasurys, a record 20% of its total holdings, bringing its US paper inventory to just $86 billion in December - the lowest since June 2008.

Why Greece Might Very Well Say “Goodbye To All That”. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. I assume that the overall costs (and risks) of Greece saying "Goodbye To All That" are considered too high by both the Eurogroup and the new Greek government. (In practice: a 5- day bank holiday, issuance of Drachmas, the conversion of euro assets into Drachmas and the announcement that 90% of outstanding debt will no longer be honoured.)  Eventually, there will be a compromise aimed primarily at gaining time. The Eurogroup will continue to allow the minimum financing of the Greek state ("extension") and say that they will need time to think how a "debt restructuring" could like like. Mr Tsipras and Mr Varoufakis will be content having secured "bridge funds" for another 6-9 months while still in possession of the trump card "Grexit"

NYU Professor Uncovers How The FDA Systematically Covers Up Fraud & Misconduct In Drug Trials. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. "That misconduct happens isn’t shocking. What is: When the FDA finds scientific fraud or misconduct, the agency doesn’t notify the public, the medical establishment, or even the scientific community that the results of a medical experiment are not to be trusted. On the contrary. For more than a decade, the FDA has shown a pattern of burying the details of misconduct. As a result, nobody ever finds out which data is bogus, which experiments are tainted, and which drugs might be on the market under false pretenses."

US Macro Collapses To 11-Month Lows, 88% Of Data Has Missed In February. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Despite the total and utter cognitive dissonance of talking-heads on mainstream media channels, the US economic data is not 'strong', is not 'goldilocks', is not 'decoupled', is not 'solid'. In fact, it's absolutely terrible. Bloomberg's US Macro data indicator which tracks both beats-and-misses and improvement/deterioration in data - is at 11-month lows. February alone has seen 29 data items miss expectations (from retail sales to industrial production) with only 4 data points beating expectations (including the constantly revised nonfarm payrolls data which so many hang their hat on). But apart from that... everything is awesome.

"Don't Be A Menace": Obama Speaks On Countering Violent Extremism. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Curious how Obama will pivot from granting al Qaeda, ISIS "moderate" Syrian rebels access to B-1B bombers, to launching a full blown war on Syria's president Assad? Or how the White House plans to provide jobs to Qatar-funded Jihadists? Then watch Obama live for the explanation as he speaks live on "countering violent extremism"

General Wesley Clark: "ISIS Got Started Through Funding From Our Friends & Allies". Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Not that it was really a conspiracy 'theory' but with General Wesley Clark (ret.) now openly admitting "ISIS got started through funding from our friends and allies... to fight to the death against Hezbollah" it appears the 'angel investors' cat is out of the bag. Adding that "they recruited the zealots and religious fundamentalists" Clark says 'we' create "Frankenstein." He is careful not to name names, but we ask (rhetorically of course), which of our (oil-bearing) allies has the biggest bone to pick with Hezbollah (apart from Israel of course)?

After six months of lower prices, retail spending is still tumbling... and it appears The Fed is finally fessing up... "persistently low energy prices... could damp the overall expansion of economic activity for a period, especially if the slowing took place after most of the positive effects of lower energy prices on growth in household spending had occurred."

If "Everything Is Awesome", Why The Alarms Over A Slight Rate Hike?. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. The fact that there is a debate about a quarter-point rate hike tells us that extraordinarily low interest rates have mostly failed to deliver a robust recovery. That people opposed to even the tiniest increase in rates are resorting to hyperbole tells us that they too know this. The thinking seems to be that six years into near-zero policy, the only reason it hasn’t worked is because it hasn’t been tried long enough. Meanwhile, the dangerous side effects of year after year of artificially low rates continue to grow.

US Sends "Tankbuster" Jets To Europe Over Russia Fears After Germany Says "A Large Scale War Could Develop" Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Karl-Georg Wellmann, a lawmaker in Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union has warned that, despite its efforts to avoid arms being provided to Ukraine, Germany "will no longer be able to stop weapons deliveries from from the U.S. and Canada." Almost too coincidental to these comments, CNN reports, the U.S. Air Force is sending its A-10 "tankbusters" back to Europe in order to "increase rotational presence in Europe to reassure our allies and partner nations that our commitment to European security is a priority." As Wellmann ominously concludes, seemingly confirming Putin's warning yesterday that if Kiev aims at a military solution, war will never end, "a large-scale war could develop out of that."

Greek Government Blasts Germany's Arrogance: "It's Like Being Asked To Surrender Back In The 1940s". Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Germany's government has been "overtaken by arrogance" in its approach to debt negotiations, a Greek government source reportedly told Sky News. The senior Syriza politician likened Germany's current tactics to those of the Nazis, exclaiming "It's like being back in the 1940s, being asked to surrender." We are sure that will make negotiations run a lot smoother (but comes on the heels of various jibes at The Greeks by Wolfgang Schaeuble).

The Catastrophic Costs Of Extend-And-Pretend Are About To Crush Europe. by Charles Hugh-Smith of OfTwoMinds blog,  Submitted by Tyler Durden on 02/18/2015. Extending imprudently massive loans to marginal borrowers always plants the seeds of disaster, and extending and pretending turns a potentially containable disaster into an uncontainable financial calamity. Yet this is the game plan of policymakers everywhere, from Europe to the U.S. to China--extend enormous loans to marginal borrowers and then mask the inevitable defaults with extend-and-pretend policies that vastly increase the size of the debt. By the time extend-and-pretend finally reaches its maximum limits, the resulting implosion is so large that the shock waves topple regimes, banks, currencies and entire nations. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-02-18/catastrophic-costs-extend-and-pretend-are-about-crush-europe

At summit, Obama aims to broaden world approach to extremism
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama gathered police leaders, lawmakers and mayors from around the world Wednesday to address the threat of violent extremism at a White House summit that was far from what Obama originally envisioned. Planned for last October, the summit never happened before the midterm elections. In the months since, the situation has just gotten worse, with the Islamic State group metastasizing and European cities learning firsthand that extremism's reach is not confined to the Middle East.

Jeb Bush: 'Mistakes' made in Iraq on his brother's watch
CHICAGO (AP) - Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said Wednesday that "there were mistakes made in Iraq" during his brother's administration. Speaking to the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, Bush said during a question-and-answer session after his speech that intelligence about Saddam Hussein's possession of weapons of mass destruction was not accurate, and the U.S. initially failed to create an environment of security in the country after removing the Iraqi leader from power.

Embattled Debaltseve falls to Ukraine rebels; troops retreat
ARTEMIVSK, Ukraine (AP) - Government soldiers pulled out of a ferociously contested railway hub in eastern Ukraine Wednesday, ending a siege so intense the retreating troops said they couldn't get water or food amid relentless shelling by Russian-backed separatists. At least six soldiers were killed in the withdrawal and more than 100 wounded. President Petro Poroshenko sought to portray the fall of Debaltseve in a positive light, saying the pullback was carried out "in a planned and organized manner," despite assertions by exhausted and dirt-caked soldiers, some of whom made their way out on foot, that their forces suffered heavy losses.
