"...the only way gold loses is if normal business and private
sector cycles come back. If that is the case, gold goes back 100 dollars per
ounce. The other
outcomes, deflation, stagflation, hyperinflation are good for gold...If
people become more confident, gold will ease back. But when the chickens come home to roost, gold will come
back..."

Following June's disappointing
relapse in Durable Goods Orders
(which was revised drastically lower), July's preliminary headline rose 4.4%
(ahead of 3.4% exp) - the biggest MoM
gain since Oct 2015. However, due to the revisions durable goods orders fell 6.4% year-over-year - the second
big annual drop in a row. Under the
hood most of the headline data beat expectations MoM but we note that Capital
Goods Shipments non-defense Ex-Aircraft fell 0.4% MoM... which led to a 9.5% collapse in year-over-year orders...

Following Manufacturing PMI's drop
from a two-month bounce, Services PMI also tumbled. Against expectations of a
rise from 51.4 to 51.8, Services dropped to 50.9 -
lowest since Feb 2016. With the lowest jobs
data in 20 months, new orders at their weakest since May,
as Markit warns, "GDP growth is failing to
accelerate in the third quarter from the weak 1.2% pace seen in the second
quarter."

Earlier this week, Citi's head of
G10 FX strat Steven Englander conducted a survey among 350 participants asking
them what they expect from Janet Yellen's Jackson Hole speech. According to the
vast majority, or 85% of the respondents, Yellen
will lean toward one 2016 rate hike with hiking risk “overwhelmingly” in December even as September hiking risk is seen as
“modestly underpriced."

If, as is likely, the economy is
closer to recession than resurgence, the
Fed is poorly positioned to respond with force, efficacy and credibility. The Fed is vulnerable. Its
recent centennial as our nation’s central bank should not be confused with
its permanent acceptance in the American political system.

SO what if she is mentally ill.. the weakest she is, the best

One week after Dr. Drew Pinsky said, on his HLN show, that he is
"Gravely concerned" about Hillary Clinton's health, CNN executive
vice president Ken Jautz announced Thursday that "Dr. Drew and I have mutually agreed to air
the final episode of his show on September 22."

In the last days of this farce or charade called “USA-democ”
nothing is true
... what
we are looking at is a flawed system that penalizes saving and encourages
reckless spending and printing money.
Although we all appear to be stuck in the same environment that combines
negative interest rates and price inflation, we have
the lower strata of society that is doomed to lose, as they end up spending more, discouraged by negative rates, and
instead accumulate debt to keep up with the increasing prices.
And then we have the “winners”, who know how to
take advantage of the system and thrive in it...

Free
market capitalism - the very heart, soul, and driving engine that
has propelled technology, medicine, transportation, manufacturing, efficient
markets, and so much more - is not only under assault; it is being left out to hang like some dried, dead leaf
by the very people who should be at the forefront for its defense. i.e.,
CEO’s and business leaders of all stripes. Yet, so far – the silence is deafening.

"I know that when we look at

rents are accelerating, healthcare is accelerating." - Dollar General CEO, Todd Vasos

ME & WORLD ISSUES
[[ GEOPOLITICS has little to do with the clown Soros’ business. The Penta move in coordination with NATO is
the one who put at risk of nuke war our planet.
.. They are forcing Ru-Chi-Iran to crash the air
force and tanks of Turkey that invaded Syria. For them is a matter of
life & death to do it, in order to prevent further provocations
elsewhere. In doing so, Ru & China
& Iran are ready to demolish any NATO station.. pointing to them, if
America dare to support Turkey.. So, if US-NATO respond in favor of Turkey, this is the
beginning of WW3. “Thousand points will
be burned”.. said a RU analyst. If this happens.. the world will be in favor of
RU as it is now in favor of crashing ISIS terrorism worldwide .. just the terrorism that is “secretly” supported
by US-NATO allies.]]
DC Leaks documents detail how dangerous the Open Society and George
Soros were to the preservation of the Russian Federation.

[ Sanders betrayed our Rev by supporting Clinton .. now that
Hillary is about to be removed from the race .. the traitor Sanders became a
money-maker-found-collector for his Robolution..
the same thing that Hillary did .. IN FACT: he is helping her to legitimize her nasty
business from the left. Sanders
doesn’t belong to the left anymore..
much less he can be considered socialist.. He is a traitor & does it. We
don’t trust him anymore.. We will vote Dr. Jill Stein
and her VP, the black leader. ]]

THE 4TH MEDIA ORGANIZATION
HIT ATM: Ankara-Tehran-Moscow
Coalition By Pepe Escobar
Pepe’s analytical frame: Turkey is already a
“dialog partner” of the SCO- Shanghai
Cooperation Organization, while Iran may become a full member as early as next
year. Moscow is certainly envisioning Ankara
as a valuable ally in the wider Sunni
world, way beyond a role in repelling Salafi-jihadis in Syria. .. Russia is pivoting
East, Turkey pivoting East, Iran already there, and China wants Eurasia
and is now actually involved in a stake in post-war Syria, that’s a geopolitical reconfiguration in Southwest Asia and this spells
out the inevitable: Eurasia integration. [[ Weak point: the Kurds ]]

WASHINGTON BLOG
Newly leaked documents provide
further details on what Harper’s magazine calls the Clinton family’s “slush
fund”, the Clinton Foundation.
As Secretary of State (the US government position
chiefly responsible for coordinating US international arms trafficking), Hillary Clinton accepted millions of dollars in “donations”
from the dictator of Bahrain, Hamad bin Isa al Khalifa, then increased US
weapons sales to him by 137% during his brutal, Saudi-backed crackdown on
pro-democracy protestors.
The crackdown, as reported by Amnesty International, has included murder and child-torture. In 2009,
a Clinton State Department official stated that al Khalifa’s weapons
coordinator was a “good friend of ours”.
Within Hillary Clinton’s increase in arms trafficking to the
dictator of Bahrain was a 10,000% increase in transfers of “toxicological
agents”.
IB Times also points
out that beyond Bahrain, US arms exports in general “substantially increased to
governments that donated to the Clinton Foundation”.*
The revelations have
forced the Clinton campaign to essentially promise that if elected President, Clinton would not be as
corrupt as she was as Secretary of State: “Clinton’s campaign said the
foundation would stop accepting foreign government donations if she is elected
president”.
It will be up to the
minority of people in the US who are still willing to vote for Clinton to
decide whether giving her more power is likely to make
her more or less corrupt.
