"These malls are dying, and we
see very limited prospect of a turnaround in performance" according to a
January report from Alder Hill, which began shorting the securities. "We expect 2017 to be a tipping point." Indeed,
cracks have appeared: prices on the BBB- pool of CMBS have tumbled from
96 cents on the dollar in late January to 87 cents last week

"Instead of taking our pain in the
short-term, we have sold future
generations as debt slaves... The best that our leaders can do
for now is to keep the bubble alive for as long as possible, because what comes
after the bubble is gone will be absolutely unthinkable."

Whilst the S&P 500 is only slightly off its
recent all time highs, the smaller cap Russell 2000 performance is looking more
problematic. That the Russell 2000 is underperforming the S&P
500 is notable, particularly as it flies in the
face of particularly strong small business survey data suggesting better times
ahead.

"The economy looks to me like a type of Ponzi Scheme. It
depends on both rising energy consumption and rising debt. Judging from the
problems we are having now, it seems to be reaching its limit in the near term.
Raising interest rates will
tend to push it even further toward its limit, or over the limit. The world economy is operating at too close
to 'stall speed'. The
financial system is too fragile."

Rather than bemoan the inevitable failure of centralized
"fixes," let's turn our attention and efforts
to the real solutions: decentralized,
networked, localized.

"Our modern 'experts'

"We reiterate our view that Oil is defying
gravity at current levels and is set to revisit lows in the not so distant
future, due to overwhelming structural factors such as exponential
technologies, shale oil/shale gas/nat gas, substitution effects. Long-term
prospects have little bearing in the short-term for price-discovery, but do
provide a magnet for prices over time."

Conflict of interest: his private family business vs
people’s Nation business.. impeachment fire is on
"At
the very least, this raises serious questions about the appearance of a
conflict that arises from the possibility that the Kushners are getting a
sweetheart deal. A classic way you influence people is by financially
helping their family."

"This article is a warning... in November 2016, a vast system of agitation and propaganda was
set up in order to destroy the reputation and the authority of President Donald
Trump as soon as he arrived in the White House. It is the first
time that such a campaign has been scientifically organised against a President
of the United States, and with such resources. Yes, we are indeed entering a post-Truth age,
but the distribution of rôles is not what you may think it is."

Private
Banks – Not the Government or Central Banks – Create 97 Percent of All
Money
Who creates money?
Most people assume that money is
created by governments … or perhaps central banks.
In reality – as noted by the Bank
of England, Britain’s central bank – 97% of all money in circulation is created by private banks.

Those looking for centralized
solutions to healthcare, jobs and other “macro-problems” will suffer inevitable
disappointment. The era in which
further centralization provided the “solution” has passed: additional
centralization (Medicare for All, No Child Left Behind, federal job training,
Universal Basic Income, central banking “free money for financiers”, etc.) have
all entered Diminishing Returns.
The systemic costs of
centralization–corruption, cronyism, soaring prices, declining
quality, over-reach, insider rackets, regulatory capture by corporations and
oligarchs– are soaring as the benefits of
centralization plummet.
ObamaCare was the penultimate
flowering of centralization: every
self-serving healthcare cartel and racket had a say in the centralized
sausage-making, and the results were entirely predictable: highly profitable to the healthcare cartels and rackets, and
soaring costs that rendered the program unaffordable.
ObamaCare institutionalized staggering distortions,
profiteering and injustices, as those who didn’t qualify for a subsidy were
ripped off to pay for all the skims and scams: meds that went from $3 to $600 overnight,
etc.
All the sound and fury around a
centralized one-size-fits-all “solution” signifies nothing–the solution is
decentralized and local, not federal. Centralization
of power, capital and control paid big dividends early on–central governments corralled
the productive elements of the nation to wage wars, and capitalists forged
immensely profitable integrated supply chains that fed centralized production
facilities in which iron ore entered the plant and finished automobiles exited.
