The “Greater Fool
Theory” surmises there is always a “greater fool” than you in the
market to sell to. For Wall
Street, that greater fool is you. Haven’t you
ever wondered why Wall Street never tells you to “sell and raise some cash?”

of academics bearing models. Knowing prices are wrong and knowing when they are

It would be one thing if crude stocks were
rising, perhaps because refiners were
going offline for maintenance. But if that were the case, then
gasoline stocks would draw down on lower refining runs. But if both crude and refined product inventories are going up at the same
time, then there should be some reasons
for worry.

"Speculators often prosper through
ignorance; it is a cliche that in
a roaring bull market, knowledge is superfluous and experience is a handicap.
But the typical experience of the speculator is one of temporary profit and ultimate loss."
As Benjamin Graham
warned, “Observation over
many years has taught us that the chief losses to investors come from the
purchase of low-quality securities at times of good business conditions. The
purchasers view the good current earnings as equivalent to ‘earning power’ and
assume that prosperity is equivalent to safety.”

Simply put, the massively overcrowded hedge fund herding into US
equities has created a crisis situation. With liquidity

concerted selling pressure from
large money managers.

"All would appear to be rosy in the equity
market with the consensus promising higher EPS growth in 2017 and bond yields
remaining reasonably well behaved despite higher headline rates of inflation

and all is not as it seems." -SocGen

Almost everybody living in the U.S. illegally
is now subject to deportation, and more undocumented arrivals at the southern
border would be jailed or sent back to Mexico to await a hearing rather than
released into the U.S., under memos issued Tuesday by the Department of
Homeland Security.

"While there is broad support for
comprehensive immigration reform, there is overwhelming opposition to sanctuary

immigrants treated fairly and those who commit crimes deported and that's very

Stunt or
not, acknowledging the power of the media in creating a pretext for war, and
therefore putting a stop to the drums of war, is one of the first key marks of
his success. The main problem continues to be the ongoing war
with the US deep state, something that will not be going away anytime soon, and a campaign that may have entered a new stage against the
Trump presidency.

If eight
years under Obama rule, 6 of which included Republican majorities in Congress,

WASHINGTON BLOG
Posted on February 21, 2017 by WashingtonsBlog
Just over a week into the Trump Administration, the
President issued an Executive Order giving Defense Secretary James Mattis 30
days to come up with a plan to defeat ISIS. According
to the Order, the plan should make recommendations on military actions,
diplomatic actions, partners, strategies, and how to pay for the operation.
As we approach the president’s deadline it looks like the
military is going to present Trump with a plan to do a whole lot more of what
we’ve been doing and somehow expect different results. Proving the old saying that when all you have is a hammer
everything looks like a nail, we are hearing increasing reports that the
military will recommend sending thousands of US troops into Syria and Iraq.
This would be a significant escalation in both countries, as
currently there are about 5,000 US troops still fighting our 13-year war in
Iraq, and some 500 special forces soldiers operating in Syria.
The current Syria ceasefire, brokered without US involvement
at the end of 2016, is producing positive results and the opposing groups are
talking with each other under Russian and Iranian sponsorship. Does anyone think sending thousands of US troops into a
situation that is already being resolved without us is a good idea?
