The
"Smartest Money" Is Liquidating Stocks At A Record Pace:
"Selling Everything That’s Not Bolted Down" . Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 07/01/2015
Buyout firms conducted 97 stock offerings in the second
quarter, more than in any other three-month period. "It’s clear that we are currently in an
environment of frothy valuations,” said Lise Buyer, founder of IPO
advisory firm Class V Group. Her disturbing punchline: "The insiders - those with the most knowledge
- are finding this a very good time to take some money off the table."
In an echo of Leon Black, Frank Maturo, vice chairman of equity capital markets
at UBS AG, said, “Private equity is
selling everything that’s not bolted down."

Police More Concerned About "Anti-Government" Domestic Extremists
Than Al-Qaeda, Study Finds. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 07/01/2015
U.S. law enforcement agencies rank the threat of violence
from anti-government extremists higher than the threat from radicalized Muslims,
according to a report released Thursday by the Triangle Center on Terrorism
and Homeland Security (TCTHS). We have previously warned that any
totalitarian apparatus implemented to fight an outside enemy, would ultimately
be turned around and used upon the public domestically; and now it seems
confirmed that the real enemy of the corrupt corporate state is none other
than, “we the people.”

To understand today’s crises in Iraq, Syria, Iran, and
elsewhere, one must grasp their shared Lebanese connection. This assertion
may seem odd. After all, what is the big deal about Lebanon? That little
country hasn’t had top headlines since Israel deigned to bomb and invade it in
2006. Yet, to a large extent, the roots of the bloody tangle now enmeshing the
Middle East lie in Lebanon: or to be more precise, in the Lebanon policy of
Israel.

"When
People Jump In Even Though It's Overpriced, That's A Bubble" Shiller Warns.
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/01/2015
Shiller warns it is "when people jump into stocks
even though they know valuations are high... that's a bubble," slamming
CNBC's rosy perspective reflecting that this is the same as the dotcom
rise. Notably he warns specifically "The US equity market is one of the
highest in the world," and now is a good time to diversify away from it.
Additionally Shiller warns of the slowing momentum in the housing market...
warning that mean-reversion is likely with risk for further decline.

Russia
Or China - Washington's Conflict Over Who Is Public Enemy #1. S- by Tyler
Durden on 07/01/15
America’s grand strategy, its long-term blueprint for
advancing national interests and countering major adversaries, is in total
disarray. Top officials lurch from crisis to crisis, improvising strategies
as they go, but rarely pursuing a consistent set of policies. Some blame this
indecisiveness on a lack of resolve at the White House, but the real reason
lies deeper. It lurks in a disagreement among foreign policy elites over whether
Russia or China constitutes America’s principal great-power adversary.

Churches Are Burning Across The South, Arson Eyed. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 07/01/2015
Last month we made the following admittedly stark
prediction: "Ultimately, it appears America has become a country wherein
everyone feels marginalized and/or aggrieved in one way or another. In the
absence of a dramatic societal reboot, we fear social instability is likely
here to stay." That assessment appears to have been quite accurate because
over the course of just two weeks, six predominantly African American churches
in the US have burned, with authorities suspecting arson in several of the
blazes.

Ex-Im
Bank Bites The Dust Today - Good Riddance To A Crony Capitalist Heist. Submitted
by Tyler Durden on 07/01/2015
The Export-Import Bank died last night when its
charter expired. After 81 years, what is commonly known as Boeing’s
Bank is headed toward Washington’s trash bin. When Congress returns it could
revive Ex-Im, which primarily subsidizes big business exports. But a proper
burial for what Barack Obama once called “corporate welfare” would save
Americans money, reduce economic injustice, and promote economic growth. Ex-Im’s
closure is a very rare victory for the good guys in Washington. Crony capitalism
is running rampant in America, undermining confidence in a market economy.

WHO ES TRYING TO CONFUSSE GREEKS and AMERICANS? READ THIS
Are you confused as to how you should vote in an
unprecedented referendum which many say is effectively a decision between
democratic rule and debt servitude?
Well, have no fear because Greek
FinMin Yanis Varoufakis is here to help with 6 reasons why you should just say "no" to the troika... BUT N. 5 READS:
5. Greece will stay in the euro. Deposits in Greece’s banks are safe. Creditors have chosen the strategy of blackmail based on bank closures. The current impasse is due to this choice by the creditors and not by the Greek government discontinuing the negotiations or any Greek thoughts of Grexit and devaluation. Greece’s place in the Eurozone and in the European Union is non-negotiable.
REAL NOT TO AUSTERITY= NOT TO TROIKA BANKS. We exit EU

What if Berlin and Frankfurt do not budge? What if they
tell Athens to ‘go jump of the tallest cliff’? I have good cause to hope that
Berlin will prefer to accommodate the Greek government and to look with a great

not, and wishes to bring the Eurozone down with it, let it do its worst, I say.

But this is Greece,
not Northern Europe. the words “quiet” and “calm” never share a sentence here.
No, this was something different, I believe, more of a “laugh to keep from
crying” state of mind. And being very experienced with Greece and Greek
culture for my entire life, this
realization was off-putting to say the least."

“brats” with or without B; if latest it mean
RATS= NEONAZIS. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-07-01/our-spoiled-brat-economy
]]
By insuring spoiled brats/vested interests never face the
consequences of their actions and choices, we guarantee failure of the entire
system.
Spoiled brats do
not take kindly to being called out as spoiled brats. Since economies are aggregates of
individuals, we can anticipate howls of outraged denial at our economy being
identified as spoiled rotten.
The two
essential characteristics of spoiled brats are 1) a complete disregard for the
burdens of those paying the bills and 2) a childishly self-absorbed sense of
overweening entitlement.
Spoiled brats have no sense of fiscal discipline. Indeed, it is their defining
characteristic. They want what they want, and they want it now, regardless of
the cost to others or the system as a whole.
In America's
Spoiled Brat Economy, no vested interest is ever allowed to fail. Lost billions gambling with borrowed money?

Just when you think
things can’t get any crazier, they always do. The Guardian reports on unpublished
Troika documents that show Greece is only too right in asking for debt relief.
That for the Syriza government to sign what the Troika wants to force them
to sign would see Tsipras et al plunge their country into a financial hell
hole.
[ I wouldn’t trust nothing from BRITT press.. but this could be
true in the sense that troika is using a double edge sword.. Q: can this sword
be converted into boomerang and lead it back on their neck?.. this dangerous game
is unpredictable .. it is like the lottery of penalties in futbol COPA AMERICA

Addresses German Parliament: Key Points. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/01/2015
As Greece prepares
to accept creditors' terms in exchange for a deal, German Chancellor Angela
Merkel addresses parliament. Here are the key points.
"The door for talks with
Greece was always open and remain always open. We owe that to the people and we
owe it to Europe.”
“There can be no negotiations for a new credit program
before the referendum.”
"Greece has legitimate right to hold referendum, euro
states have right to respond."
[ SO, even Merkel agree with consulting people via referendum..
but she doubt about its results .. will she respect them?? . DEMO rules said
that she should respect it .. we will see if she is consistent]

The EU is
blowing up itself by trying to exert far too much influence on the very member

The
Global Template for Collapse: The Enchanting Charms of Cheap, Easy Credit. Posted on July 1, 2015 by Charles Hugh Smith
According to
polls, the majority of Greek citizens want the benefits of membership in the
euro/EU and the end of EU-imposed austerity. The idea that these are mutually exclusive
doesn’t seem to register.
This is the
discreet charm of magical thinking: it promises an escape from the difficulties
of hard choices, tough trade-offs, the disruption of vested interests and most
painfully, the breakdown of the debt machine that has enabled the distribution
of swag to virtually everyone in the system (a torrent to those at the top, a
trickle to the majority at the bottom, but swag nonetheless).
