"The narrative about an improving economy, thriving jobs market, and

these inconvenient truths."
….
Just as with TARP, what is good for Wall Street is not
good for Main Street.
The Fed narrative of
no inflation, supported by the sliced, diced, manipulated, massaged,
hedonically and seasonally adjusted drivel produced by the government drones at
the BLS, has benefited from the almost two year decline in gas and oil prices.
That is now reversing itself, as gasoline prices have risen at an annualized
rate of 20% over the last three months. It is poised to rise by 30% to 40% year
over year in the next few months. Even the Deep State government bureaucrats are having trouble disguising
raging inflation in expenses affecting average Americans on a daily basis.

Gold is
collateral of last resort as it is near-universally accepted. Repo fails indicate, very
strongly, collateral shortage. Put the
two together and you get yet more evidence that central bankers really don’t
know what they are doing. And, also like in Bagehot’s day, the
repercussions are global.

It seems that manipulation of the gold fixing
is over and done with - exposed by various lawsuits. Nevertheless, a noticeable price slide still occurs regularly in early
New York trading - price behavior that is reminiscent of the time after
August 5 1993, when manipulation of the gold price could first be detected.

Contrary to the popular way of thinking, the value of a paper dollar
originates from its historical link to commodity money - which happens to be
gold - and not government decree or social convention. Fiat money of the sort we use today
could not and would not come about in a market setting.

Attacking the Millenial MOM for non saving money to big corp.. what a
scum
For the 3rd month in a row,
annual US spending growth has outpaced annual income growth (+4.2% spending vs
+3.5% income). However, both spending and income growth
MoM disappointed (with incomes unchanged MoM - the weakest since Feb
2016). Combine these two and the savings rate in November plunged to its
lowest since March 2015.

[[How the 10% Import Tariff is going to benefit
American consumers? American people is not going to get nothing –but
higher prices- from the 10% Import Tariff. This plus
the current hike in Price index , will put all the nation against Trump ..
Notice: Neither Hillary nor Trump got the 25% of the entire national electorate
.. People will easily join efforts to build Referendum
at State level to demand the resignation
of Trump, that is, his impeachment for
mocking the national faith with false promises. This is not good start for

After DNA evidence cleared him of a crime for
which he was wrongfully imprisoned for 31 years, the state of Tennessee gave
Lawrence McKinney a check for $75 to help "restart his life" and sent
him on his way. Now McKinney is pleading with Tennessee Governor Bill
Haslam for an exoneration which could clear a path for damages for all those
wasted years behind bars.

WORLD ISSUES and ME
So far,
so expected. After earlier announcing the failure to attract any anchor
investors for a private capital raise, Monte Paschi has announced that it will
officially ask the Italian government for a "precuationary capital
increase" - in other words a bailout. The funds will come from the newly
decreed EUR20 billion bailout fund, and as Bloomberg reports will not trigger a
"bail-in."

WASHINGTON BLOG
Posted on December 22, 2016 by Charles
Hugh Smith
There are numerous debates about
money: what it is, how we measure it, and so on. In recognition
of these debates, I’m referring to “money” in quotes to designate that I’m
using the Federal Reserve’s measure of money stock (MZM).
Nowadays, “money” is often credit. We
buy stuff not with currency/ cash, but with credit extended by lenders. The
government pays for its programs with borrowed money as well, by selling
sovereign bonds and spending the proceeds.
So to get a rough measure of the expansion of “money,” we
look at money stock and total credit.
There’s a third measure: GDP, or
gross domestic product. As money and credit expanded, did GDP
go up, too? By how much?
GDP is also a flawed measure of value and activity, but once
again we’ll use it as the conventional measure of economic “growth.”
When we glance at money, credit
and GDP, we are immediately struck by the disconnect between expansion of
money/credit and GDP growth. A relatively modest expansion of
money stock and credit was sufficient to fuel a powerful expansion of GDP
during the 1995-2000 Internet boom.
The next expansion of GDP–Housing Bubble #1–required an
enormous expansion of credit and about double the growth in money stock as
the Internet boom.
