"Trump
wins US Election"? "UK Leaves EU"? "Cubs Win World
Series"? How about this one: "The VIX
Peaks in February"? For the first time since the start of the
modern VIX in 1990, the 'Fear Gauge' peaked in that month...
Notice:
VIX= volatility index.
VIX measure volatility or market expectation for 30 days according to the Chicago Board Options
Exchange. The rate
of volatitlity is "the rate and magnitude of changes in prices” La idea es que se puede predecir con estos
indices evita riesgos futuros en cualquier negocio a partir de su volatilidad
reciente (o fluctuaciones de precios recientes). El índice de volatilidad de
las oscilaciones en las cotizaciones recientes proporcionan idea de donde
invertir mejor (por ejemplo en inmuebles o en la bolsa). Esto es pura ficción
especulativa indican sus críticos. Cuando los precios por acción suben es
porque hay mas alta volatilidad que es cuando los inversores piden rentabilidad
mas alta a sus inversiones. Si se baja la volatidad cae el precio de las
acciones en la bolsa. Esto es, artificialmente se sube los precios -de las
casas por ejemplo- comprando las mismas casas
a más alto precio.

It appears not
everyone is convinced that "the 30 year bond bull is dead." A quick
glance across US equity options today shows TLT (the long-end Treasury Bond
ETF) is the most active with call volumes (bullish bonds, lower rates) more than
double their average, with over $1.3 billion notional in February $126
Calls (which will payoff if rates drop to around 2.00% by then).

With Bitcoin at 3 year highs, China’s renewed efforts to curb declines in its
currency are doing little to stop yuan bears who have sent forward
devaluation expectations to record highs and options positioning to six-month
lows. And judging by Goldman Sachs' outlook - a potential resurgence in Chinese growth fears early next year, but more
broadly, a continued bumpy deceleration - things are not getting
better anytime soon.

Y encima a beber agua contaminada. El escándalo en Flint lo comparten 3000 other communities
A Reuters investigation
this week uncovered nearly 3,000 different communities across the U.S. with lead
levels higher than those found in Flint,
Michigan, which has been the center of an ongoing water contamination crisis since
2014. The investigation found that many of the hot-spots are receiving little
attention or funding.

De los frauds economicos a los

Newt Gingrich said in an NPR interview that Donald Trump has taken a
different tone as president-elect and may be leaving behind his campaign
promise to drain the swamp. "I'm told he
now just disclaims that. He now says it was cute, but he doesn't want to use it
anymore,"

Y estas vaguedades tendrán algo de

Lo que se dijo y prometió en tiempo

El problema es que Mr.T ya es Pdte y

Si sigue así cuando asuma el poder ..

Among the top four items listed in the memo from are: 1) developing a strategy to defeat/destroy ISIS; 2) build a

greater efficiencies.

IS GALLUP FOR SALE? NO
way.. this must be true!
Gallup’s
U.S. Economic Confidence Index has never been higher than it is today.
The “Trumphoria” that has
gripped the nation ever since Donald Trump’s miraculous victory on election
night shows no signs of letting up. Tens of millions of Americans that were deeply troubled by Barack Obama’s policies
over the last eight years are feeling optimistic about the future for
the first time in a very long time. But of course not everything is rainbows and unicorns...
Unless there is some sort of
unprecedented miracle, there is no way that this giant bubble that we are in at
the moment is going to end well. So
it is definitely good to be optimistic, but we also need to be realistic about
where we are right now and about the great challenges that we will soon be
facing.

WASHINGTON BLOG
Posted on December 21, 2016 by Charles
Hugh Smith
Not to rain on the new
administration’s parade, but one question needs to be asked of any new
administration: will tax cuts and more federal borrowing/ spending
fix what’s broken in the U.S./global economy?
The short answer: if tax cuts and
more federal borrowing/ spending were the cure for what ails the economy, we’d
have reached Paradise long ago. Stripped of partisan politics and
rah-rah, tax cuts and more federal borrowing/ spending–on infrastructure,
education, defense, healthcare, you name it–have been the de facto status quo
policies of both parties for the past 70 years.
Despite decades of these
centralized, standard-issue Keynesian “fixes,” the economy’s structural ills
are only getting worse. I outlined five of the most critical issues
in What
Have the “Experts” Gotten Right? In the Real Economy, They’re 0 for 5(December
20, 2016).
Ultimately, two dynamics will
dominate everything else: the paid work/earnings of non-elites and
the transition from wasteful, debt-funded “growth” to a sustainable “Degrowth”
economy.
45 years of Keynesian
“stimulus”–tax cuts and federal borrowing/ spending–haven’t stemmed the decline
of labor’s share of the economy (GDP). As these charts reveal, if
labor’s share of the economy was still at 50% rather than 42%, households with
earnings from work would be getting an astounding $1.35
trillion more per year.
