The fake victory of Macron in
economic terms:
According to the bookies, it's a done deal...
Stocks Up, Oil Down
With VIX slammed back to a 10 handle...But that did nothing
for the S&P...
Thanks to a yuuge short squeeze...
So, bond yields rolled over all day and the yield curve
flattened... but bank stocks were bid!?
EFFECTS USDJPY ended at the LoD...
For the 7th day in a row, spot gold was hit right before the
London Fix...
So stocks love a Le Pen loss...BUT...There's just a couple of problems...
Macro data is collapsing...
Earnings expectations are falling...
And debt ceiling
concerns are growing...
….

Will
Macron Serve The Interests Of The American Deep State? The
accrued momentum in colossal sums of money flowing this way and that way has allowed unreality to reign in international
finance for a while. But
that is now flying apart. The ultimate reality, politicians and economists will
soon discover, is that you can’t create your own reality.
Look at this
picture of France reality:

BACK TO AMERICA’S ECON COLLAPSE
It appears the hope that a centrist candidate will win the French
election is enough to trump tumbling macro-economic data, disappointing
earnings, and flailing inflation in the US economy. June rate hike odds have spiked to 69%
overnight (even as debt ceiling risks begin to price in... and the dollar
drops)...

We don’t need to bomb WS..
News-title is stupid! We need to implement both Roosevelt policy n other

What all
this warrants is extreme caution in Bubbleville. With geopolitical risk
flashing bright red, half percent GDP growth, record high equity valuations and
a delusional Fed that continues threatening interest rate normalization; the market’s reality check [collapse] is surely imminent.

NO way to stop big-Corp “neoliberal
collapse”.. if investors said so, it is true. Si los ratones no tienen que comer, comerán
el queso de la trampa .. Lo que significa que esto se va “a la merda”
The biggest problem for
individuals, and the culprit of the great “ETF
buying panic,” is the “herding effect” as investors rush to chase market
returns. The coming problem will be “loss aversion,” as the
herding effect runs in reverse in the rush to get out.
..
'Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF)'.
An ETF, or exchange traded fund, is a marketable security that
tracks an an index, a commodity, bonds, or a basket of
assets like an index
fund. Unlike mutual
funds, an ETF trades like a common stock on
a stock exchange. ETFs experience price changes throughout the day as they are
bought and sold. ETFs typically have higher daily liquidity and
lower fees than mutual fund shares, making them an attractive alternative for
individual investors. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/etf.asp
The Inherent Costs Of “Low Costs”
There is a “cost” to
chasing “low costs” and “being average.” I do
NOT disagree that costs are an important component of long-term returns; however there are two missing ingredients of “buy and
hold” index investing are
ignoring: 1) time; and, 2) psychology.
As I have discussed previously, the most important
commodity to all investors is “time.” It is the one thing we cannot manufacture more of.
There is a massive difference between AVERAGE and ACTUAL RETURNS ON INVESTED CAPITAL. The
impact of losses, in any given year, destroys the annualized “compounding”
effect of money.
The Passive Indexing Trap
Let me just clarify
the record – “There is no such thing as passive
investing.” While you may
be invested in an “index,” when the next bear market correction
begins, and the pain of loss becomes large enough, “passive indexing” will
turn into “active panic.”
Not surprisingly, as
markets have risen, individuals begin to rationalize the current price
trend will continue indefinitely. The longer the rising
trend lasts, the more ingrained the belief becomes until the last of “holdouts”
finally “buy in.”
We can see this in
the surge of ETF flows. As the “bull market” continues to run, the
more rampant the increase in flows have become. (Note – they same thing
was occurring in 2005-2007.)
There are two problems forming.
The first is leverage. While
investors have been chasing returns in the “can’t lose” market, they
have also been piling on leverage in order to increase their return.
The 2nd. Importantly:
as prices decline it will trigger margin calls which will induce more
indiscriminate selling.
The forced redemption cycle will
cause catastrophic spreads between the current bid and ask pricing for ETF’s. As investors are forced to dump positions to
meet margin calls, the lack of buyers will form a vacuum causing rapid
price declines which leave investors helpless on the sidelines watching years
of capital appreciation vanish in moments. Don’t
believe me? It happened in 2008 as the “Lehman Moment” left investors
helpless watching the crash.
Over a 3-week span, investors
lost 29% of their capital and 44% over the entire 3-month period. This
is what happens during a margin liquidation event. It is fast, furious and without remorse.
Currently, with complacency and
optimism near record levels, no one sees a severe market retracement as a
possibility. But maybe that should be warning enough.
You are paying for what you will
get, both now and in the future.
However, the real goal of any investment advisor is not to “beat
the index” on the way up, but rather to protect capital on the “way
down.” It is
capital destruction that leads to poor investment decision making, emotionally
based financial mistakes and destruction of financial goals. It is also what advisors should be hired for, evaluated on,
and ultimately paid for, as their real job should be keeping you out of “the
trap.”

Late last week, lawyers representing the Cherokee Nation filed a
lawsuit against major pharmaceutical companies, claiming they have pumped dangerous painkillers into Native American communities
in Oklahoma. The Washington Post obtained a copy of the court
filing and reported that the companies are accused of breaking laws by “failing to prevent the diversion
of pain pills to the black market.”

La seudo democ y sist duopolico es obsoleto por fraudulento y
corrupto. Urge cambiarlo
We all
knew it was coming and now it has finally been confirmed that the Senate's
favorite Socialist will introduce legislation later this week calling for a $15
federal minimum wage. For those silly 'math' people out there, that's a
mere 107% increase in minimum wage over just a few short years, which we
suspect will at least slightly outpace inflation over the same period.

Trump has ordered his White
House aides to accelerate his tax plan, the WSJ writes,
"slashing the corporate rate to 15% and prioritizing cuts in tax rates
over an attempt to not increase the deficit" which means that
without an offsetting source of revenue, Trump is about
to unleash up to $2 trillion in extra debt, a proposal which will face
fierce pushback from conservatives as it appears to be a continuation of the
status quo under the Obama administration, and may well be DOA.

Assange, along with the whistleblowers

blame."

"...the dominance of these firms in
their specific niches presents a threat not just to economic competition, but liberty and
freedom generally speaking. After all, the government itself
doesn’t need to censor free speech if it can just lean
on powerful companies with platform monopolies to do the dirty work for it."
