Normally, when the
head of the FBI under one President says something like “no
reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case”, as the FBI
reported regarding Hillary Clinton’s emails, that would be the end of the
matter; but Clinton actually still isn’t off the
prosecutorial hook of this criminal case, unless and until she becomes
President herself.
The decision as to
whether or not to prosecute her on this matter is not made by the FBI Director,
but by the Attorney General. The current one, Loretta
Lynch, was appointed by (and holds her job at the discretion of) the man
who has endorsed Ms. Clinton to become his own successor: the current U.S.
President, Barack Obama. If Clinton doesn’t become the next
President, the next Attorney General won’t be appointed by Clinton, and
that person will then be making any decision as to whether or not to present
the Clinton emails-case to a grand jury; and, if an indictment results, then to
present it to a trial jury.
Even the Obama
appointee to be the FBI’s chief, Mr. Comey, introduced his statement there, by
acknowledging that “there is evidence of potential
violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information.” As
regards his opinion that “no reasonable prosecutor
would bring such a case,” reasonable prosecutors already have brought such
cases, and they have won convictions on these cases. So, just based on that record, Mr. Comey
clearly lied there.

ZERO HEDGE
ECONOMICS
"No matter
what Alan Greenspan did he was taken as a genius. Whereas 20 years later, Janet
Yellen sounds like a fumbling idiot no matter what she does. All her actions come across as desperate
because the credibility has been blown away. The Fed has been forced
into action and by being forced into action it has only highlighted what the Fed can’t do."

Pretend you’re
running a corrupt government and something big and scary happens in another
part of the world. Brexit, for instance. You’re quite naturally worried about
the impact on your local economy and political system. What do you do? Well, one obvious thing would be to call the
statisticians who compile your economic reports and tell them to fudge the next
batch of numbers.

This week the S&P
500 surged to a new record high of 2164 this week while the 10-year US Treasury
yield touched an all-time low of 1.37%. As a result Goldman, and especially its
clients, are stumped. As chief equity strategist David Kostin admits, they have
one burning question. As Kostin puts it, they "are struggling to reconcile how extreme valuations of both assets
can co-exist."
POLITICS
Gery Bernsten, a
decorated former CIA career officer who served in the Directorate of Operations
between October 1982 and June 2005, said on Friday that Obama has lost control of the Middle East following attacks in
France that left at least 84 dead. "This is going to get very, very ugly," Gary Bernsten
said on Fox & Friends Friday.

“For those who want shares
to go up at any cost, it’s absolutely fantastic that the [central banks]
are buying so much. But this is clearly
distorting the sanity of the stock market.”

Last night, a poorly organized, badly planned, quasi-coup took place in
Turkey which led to Erdogan further retrenching his authoritarian position in
the country. This morning, the president's
own "counter-coup" began with the purdhing of 2,745 judges across the
country, as well as the issuance of arrest warrants for 140 appeals court
members. Erdogan's path to full, authoritarian power is now open.

On the surface, things seem pretty quiet in mid-July 2016. But underneath the surface, it is a very
different story. As you will see below, the conditions for a “perfect storm” are coming together
very rapidly, and the rest of 2016 promises to be much more chaotic than what
we have seen so far.

El
pasado 8 de julio se registró una extraña tormentas de arena queo es habitual
en el litoral oeste de América del Sur, por lo cual fue considerada como
'inusual'." El origen podría estar en una pendiente elevada, que pudo
haber permitido que la arena se elevara y viajara a distancias lejanas",
ha explicado la NASA.
Asimismo,
esa aglomeración podría haberse dado por los vientos catabáticos que se generan
"cuando el aire entra en contacto con un suelo frío que está a gran
altitud y se congela por la radiación".
Junto
con el polvo, esas corrientes llevaron lluvia y nieve, que provocaron el
cierre temporal de varios aeropuertos.
