MORE ON ELECTORAL FRAUD IN NY


Two things were obvious going into the New York primary: 1) Hillary Clinton would win. 2) There would be an enormous amount of voter suppression and fraud. Well the results are in, and the state of the state in New York is very, very bad.
..
The WNYC  reports:
WNYC reported this morning that 126,000 Brooklyn Democrats had been removed from the voting rolls since last fall.
..
What a fake liberal clown.
A spokesperson for New York Attorney Eric Schneiderman told the New York Daily News that his office received “by far the largest volume of complaints we have received for an election since Attorney General Schneiderman took office in 2011.”
Some polling sites did not open on time, citing too few election workers. Others had faulty voting machines, or were delivered half the number of promised voting machines.
 “It’s just disheartening. We’re supposed to be the number one country in the world, but things like this you’d imagine would happen in a second or third-world country,” she said. “What happened to me, basically, was fraud.”

Welcome to the real American democracy.

Dear Janet - it doesn't get any better than this...
At 247k, initial jobless claims are the lowest since November 1973 - how does that compute given the "fear and anger" among America's electorate?


We assume Intel's layoffs will be seasonally-adjusted out of this time series?

Precious Metals Puke - 'Someone' Dumps $2 Billion Of Gold Into Futures Markets  Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/21/2016  :  What goes up... must not be allowed to...
Someone just decided this was the perfect time to dump over $2 billion worth of notional paper gold onto the markets...


Over 16,000 gold contracts (and 7,500 silver) were dumped in that 5/10 minutes segment.
It appears Draghi did not like the impression of his impotence that precious metals were suggesting.
It appears the Gold/Silver ratio at 72x was a big buying opportunity?

First in precious metals and now in FX, a very visible hand strikes again...

EL SISTEMA NEOLIBERAL SE VA A LA MERDA:
..
On The Impossibility Of A Soft Landing.  Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/21/2016
[ Just in case: David is not a Marxist. ]
..
While the robo-traders play tag with the chart points, it is worth considering how it will all end. After all, at today’s close the broad market (S&P 500) was valued at 24.3X LTM earnings per share. That is, valuations are in the nosebleed section of history, but financial history has tumbled into the sub-basement of future possibilities.
..
Stated differently, every first year spread-sheet jockey knows that what drives LBO models and NPV calculations is the assumed terminal year growth rate. Get imaginative enough about the possibilities out there, and you can come up with a swell return on today’s investment even if the next few years look a little rocky—-or even alot so.
..
Here’s the thing,. The current deflationary wave is not a one-time detour which will pass in due coursePer the above analogy, we do not have merely two years of bad numbers in a 10-year LBO model with a robust terminal value at the end.
..
In a word, the stock market is not worth even 15X its current earnings or 1300. At length, the carbon units out there catching today’s bouncing dead cats will thank their lucky stars if their losses are only 40% from here.
..
The historical dead-end ahead is dramatically evident in the case of the BOJ and its lunatic detour into NIRP. And Japan is only following central bank policies recommended by Keynesians from the West and which are being followed, except for small nuances of degree, by the ECB and the Fed as well.
Here is what the old age colony on the Pacific Rim looks like 40 years from now. Already baked into the demographic cake is a 40% reduction in the size of Japan’s working age population.
Japan’s current working age population of 75 million is already staggering under the weight of current taxation and high living costs. But when it reaches just 45 million by 2060 the math will become prohibitive.
..
Japan’s Demographic Dead End
.. 
The ridiculous state of Japan’s government bond market is explained more fully in a nearby post, yet there is nothing extraordinary about it. It’s all part of the daily fare emanating from all points on the planet.
..
Another such dead-end is found in the story on the mother of all payables stretches now happening in the Red Ponzi. Struggling under $30 trillion of unpayable financial debt accrued during what amounts to a historical heartbeat of frenzied borrowing, China’s businesses are now coping with the inexorable morning-after deflation by means of a time-tested maneuver of last resort.
..
To wit, they are attempting to pay their bankers by stiffing their suppliers. As shown below, payables now average an incredible 192 days in China’s business system. And that’s why its whole house of cards is likely to collapse with a bang, not a Beijing managed whimper. At some point, this daisy chain of billions of unpaid claims will far exceed even the capacity of China’s state-deputized bankers and its growing fleet of paddy wagons to keep in line.
..
In turn, China’s so-called “iron rooster” was given a new lease on life as a result of even more artificial demand for capital investment and infrastructure that is already massively overbuilt. Accordingly, during March, China’s steel production hit an all-time high, causing prices to temporarily rise, and closed mills to re-open.
..
Only the most dunderheaded bull could argue that the US economy is decoupled from the entirety of China and the great EM supply chain which has feasted on its excesses. But for want of doubt, just consider its implications for another deflationary Q1 earnings announcement from this morning.


As we said, mind the terminal growth assumption. The warning signs are everywhere that what lies on the other side is not a world of 24.3X valuations.

COUNTER PUNCH


Here only brief extracts

In many respects Hillary Clinton emerges from the New York primary more damaged, her party more divided, than she entered it. ..What came to be called The Battle of New York has served only to further expose what millions of people in the U.S. are becoming painfully aware of - the Democratic Party primary is rigged in favor of the establishment.

Before yesterday’s primary even began, more than 27% of New Yorkers (3 million people) were excluded by restrictive voting laws as well as the removal of previously registered voters identified as “inactive.” In one Brooklyn precinct, officials said 10% of those who showed up to vote found their names had been purged. In the county in which Brooklyn resides, more than 125,000 voters had been cut from the Democratic rolls, leading to a massive 14% drop of eligible voters in 5 months time.

Meanwhile, in upstate New York polling station hours were substantially cut back especially in areas more favorable to Sanders. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio felt compelled to comment, “The perception that numerous voters may have been disenfranchised undermines the integrity of the entire electoral process, and must be fixed.” The city’s comptroller vowed to “undertake an audit of the operations and management of the Board of Elections.”

While Clinton’s 15-point margin of victory is almost certainly greater than the sum of irregularities, it is equally clear that if independents and others wrongly excluded could vote, the outcome would have been far closer and Sanders might even have won.

[[ The huge political distrust of people on the billionaires represented by Hillary & Trump has created unprecedented migration of voters from other parties toward Sanders. In NY those political olygarchs  manage to stop –purge & prohibing – million of people from voting in NY (3 million according to the author of this article: 14% drop. In Brooklyn, more than 125,000 voters were excluded.). The pains, disgust & frustration of this people is going to explote  . Their right to vote has been deleted one more time ... but the context today is different, very dangerous.
.. 
The meaning of all this is that the whole Nation is ready for
DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST PARTY  and for
THE PEOPLE’s NATIONAL FRONT  as 3rd option for NOV 4
..
In each neighborhood across the Nation we should create cells for the Party
and select one person for the National Convention after primaries in CA
The place and time of the Convention will be announced in Nov 4 ]]
----
Here the Art-selection of extracts continue
..
[With] the combined power of Wall Street Super PACs you have a primary and political party which is hostile terrain for a candidate of the 99%. .. One simple fact reveals THE RIGGED CHARACTER OF THE SYSTEM: National polls consistently show Bernie Sanders enjoys, by far, the highest favorability rating of all presidential candidates, and beats out all Republicans in head-to-head match-ups. Yet Sanders will very likely be eliminated before the general election if he plays by the rules of the two-party system.

Our economy has increasingly been financialized, and the result is a sluggish economy and stagnant wages. We need to decide whether to stop the cycle and save the economy at large, or to stay in thrall to our banks and bondholders by leaving the debt hangover from 2008 intact. Without a debt writedown the economy will continue to languish in debt deflation, and continue to polarize between creditors and debtors. This debt dynamic is in fact themajor explanation for why the U.S. and European economies are polarizing, not converging.

The reality that cannot be spoken is that all the financial systems we believe are permanent are actually on borrowed time. One way we can judge this decline of resilience is to look at how long it takes systems to recover when they are stressed, and to what degree they bounce back to previous levels.
The key insight here is that financial systems and indeed economies function as natural systems. Central planning/central banker manipulation appears to control the system, but this control masks the reality that the system is increasingly fragile and prone to collapse, not just from internal dynamics but as a direct result of central bank manipulation.
..
The warning signs of fraying resilience are all around us.
