WW3 AT PORTAS.  By Hugo Adan

US Econ & Polit situation creates the most dangerous time in favor of WW3.  Some people believe that only war can unite the US nation at top (division in Deep State & financial sectors) and at the bottom (oligarchical parties GOP-Dems vs emergence of Nation Rev in favor radical change & post-neoliberal economics). But War won’t solve neither domestic nor international collapse of the Econ & Pol system. Rusia & China allies are ready to counter- attack immediately our 1st strike. Once WW3 start, its barbarie won’t be stopped via negotiation but via unconditional surrender of the “enemy”. 

Now is the time to negotiate world peace. It implies forget the stupidity of who is jacking who, that only conduce to WW3. This also implies to restore the authority of the FBI & restore the legitimacy of our elected Presid. It implies above all the need to convene a Pact with RU, China to dismantling nuclear heads world wide, starting with main US-NATO allies, RU & China. It could also implies the  dismantle of Comp associated with the Military Industrial Complex for the production of nukes and WMD. Instead of wasting time & money in shows of jacking, the Senate should discuss this issue.

If we insist in playing with the Pandora box of WW3, the nation should know that once is opened -by accident- nobody will have their life assured. That includes Senate members & all members of the Government. The nation should also know that the aftermath of the war is class uprising or Rev. Are we ready for WW3?  Does the nation have bunkers to protect their life?. Rich people have it we don’t

US & GLOBAL RECESSION PICTURE:

This happened...


And appears to be the straw that broke the complacency camel's back....


Quite a day...
  • S&P 500 biggest drop since Sept 2016 (broke below 50-dma)
  • Small Caps biggest drop since Brexit June 2016 (broke below 50-, 100-dma)
  • Nasdaq biggest drop since Brexit June 2016
  • Dow Industrials biggest drop since Sept 2016 (broke below 50-dma)
  • Dow Transports biggest drop since June 2016 (broke below 50-, 100-dma, and near 200-dma) - now negative year-to-date

And we actually heard someone say "This is nonsense, the fundamentals are solid, Trump doesn't matter"... Well if it wasn't Trump hope holding stocks up - what was it?


30Y Yield crashed back below 3.00%, back to pre-French election levels...


The Dollar Index was clubbed again - 6th down day in a row to pre-Trump election levels...

2- Cars market contraction

For the first time since January 2009, sales of cars declined year-over-year in all three of the world's largest auto markets of Western Europe (-6.8%), China (-1.8%) and the United States (-3.7%).  Combined, these three markets account for roughly 70% of the world's auto sales.

3-  Housing bubble is crashing
Soon, investors will be forced to reconcile a massive expansion of debt and falling productivity and growth with a host of potentially disruptive crises: The advent of government-sponsored cyberwarfare, followed by the collapse of the global dollar-based monetary system. 

The next crash is coming, and the decision by central banks to paper over their economy's troubles with a massive injection of debt likely means that the next crash is already overdue.

Soon, investors will be forced to reconcile a massive expansion of debt and falling productivity and growth with a host of potentially disruptive crises: The advent of government-sponsored cyberwarfare, followed by the collapse of the global dollar-based monetary system. Whereas the last crisis trigger massive devaluations in the real estate and stock markets, the next crash will be the result of a triple bubble in stocks, real estate and bonds as investors bail out of traditional assets in favor of the safety of gold, silver and - perhaps - cryptocurrencies like bitcoin.

Gold analyst Mike Maloney believes that traditional assets will plunge, and gold, silver and cryptocurrencies like bitcoin will outperform, as investors seek protection from the coming collapse of the global dollar system. Maloney explains his thinking in a new YouTube video "The Everything Bubble."   VIDEO LOCATION:  https://youtu.be/w0Oz2R0u4VM?t=70

In the U.S., housing prices have experienced a halting recovery since the subprime crisis.

In the stock market, a few vulnerabilities have emerged; the ratio of debt borrowed against investors' brokerage account balances has reached all-time highs, which tells you that recent gains are vulnerable to a short-squeeze - which is when brokerages close clients out of their positions.


Worth noting: the rise in margin debt has traced the run-up in the S&P 500.

The VIX - a gauge of expected volatility - has fallen to multi-decade lows, suggesting that markets have grown complacent in the face of the coming crash. Earnings-per-share ratios are looking precariously stretched to dot-com-era levels


And, finally, a look at intraday trading patterns also reveals signs of strain: Maloney, borrowing from the research of John Hussman of Hussman Funds, the former University of Michigan finance professor who famously predicted the 2008 crisis, explains that lately he's seen what he calls "exhaustion gaps" appearing with increasing frequency. Hussman defines an "exhaustion gap" as any time the S&P 500 opens 0.5% above its previous close while its within 2% of its all-time high. These gaps show that the supply of capital pouring into the market is thinning, or " that there are no more suckers willing to buy at the top."

Flash points on US politics: internal contradict.. Hugh Smith good articles reproduced


Posted on May 17, 2017

I confess to being amused by the mainstream media’s implicit view that everything would be peachy if only Trump wasn’t president. Memo to MSM: the nation is fragmenting for reasons that have nothing to do with who’s president, or indeed, which party is the majority in Congress, who sits on the Supreme Court, or any other facet of governance.

The nation is fracturing and fragmenting because the Status Quo is failing the majority of the citizenry. The protected few are reaping all the benefits of the Status Quo, at the expense of the unprotected many.

As I have outlined many times, this unsustainable asymmetry is the only possible outcome of our socio-economic system, which is dominated by these forces:
1. Globalization–free flow of capital, labor arbitrage
2. Nearly free money from central banks for financiers and corporations
3. Pay-to-play “democracy”
4. State protected cartels that privatize gains and socialize losses
5. A system stripped of self-correcting feedback and accountability
Once you understand the inputs and structure, you realize there is no other possible output other than unsustainably expanding debt and wealth/income inequality. Policy tweaks cannot change the output; all they do is provide an illusion of reform that serves the need of those at the top to obscure the systemic injustices and unsustainability of the extractive, exploitive, predatory, parasitic system that’s enriching them.

If there is one reality that is denied or obscured by the Status Quo, it is that the economy no longer works as it did in the past. This is the fundamental economic context of our current slide into political-social disintegration.

The Status Quo narrative is: the policies that worked for the past 70 years are still working today. Boiled down to its Keynesian state-corporate essence, the Status Quo economic narrative is simple:
All we need to do to escape a “soft patch” (recession) is for governments to borrow and spend more money to temporarily boost incomes and demand until the private sector gets back on its feet and starts borrowing and spending more.
To help the private sector, central banks lower interest rates so it’s cheaper to borrow and spend.
As soon as the private-sector borrowing and spending rises, we can raise interest rates and trim state fiscal stimulus (i.e. governments borrowing and spending trillions more than they did before the recession).

But the inconvenient reality is these Keynesian policies no longer work. Fiscal stimulus (governments borrowing and spending trillions more than they did before the recession) has continued for a decade–or in Japan’s case, almost three decades.

The Keynesian gods have failed, but the worshippers of these false idols have no other form of black magic to turn to.

A ese dios y la virgen hay que tirarlos al rio o al basural como hacen algunos pueblo quechuas de Perú  con santos que no cumplen su función de hacer milagros .. O amarrarlos a un padrón para que se los coman las águilas como lo hicieron los griegos. No soy ateo, pero me fascinan los cuentos religiosos.

[[ Las Coops no son un fin en sí mismo, pero es cierto que de allí nació el comunismo primitivo, el socialismo luego y también el capitalismo inicial –previo al monopólico- el de las Corporaciones. Las grandes Corp controlan hoy el mundo actual en base a la especulación financiera con el dinero de los ahorristas. 

Este es un sistema podrido y parasitario donde los managers se comieron al cooperativista. Pueden los banqueros invertir en fabricación de armas y guerras y otras activ que no tienen nada que ver con la felicidad del pueblo, la región y la nación donde vive el cooperativista (el trabajador directo).

 Volver al cooperativismo positivo y sano supone sacar los dólares de los Bancos. Crear en cambio la cooperativa de ahorros de la localidad, avanzar luego a la creación de moneda propia en la localidad y región. Dejar los bancos solo para transacciones fuera de la región y el país y solo mientras no se cree el propio banco o coop de ahorros. Todo empieza sacando los dólares de los bancos: comprar un safe y guardar allí los ahorros mientras nace el Banco coop local o regional. Esto es lo que se está haciendo aquí en el US para el control del ahorro personal.

La otra opción es invertir el ahorro en compra de monedas de oro convertibles para su uso en el mercado regional con credit cards. Ya hay dos bancos que los hacen aquí y eso va a crecer mientras siga cayendo el dólar, su fabricación de la nada y/o si empeora la crisis y la deuda  nacional, peor si viene la guerra. Se deposita las monedas de oro en esos bancos y solo lo que se necesita para pagar cuentas del mes o el bimestre. El resto va al safe personal. 

Si se desata la 3ra guerra mundial nadie podrá sacar sus dolares ahorrados en los bancos porque “la nación” –esto es la oligarquía dueña del país- necesitará ese dinero para la “seguridad nacional”, dirán. La oligarquía no va a invertir su dinero en guerra, lo tiene ya en paraísos fiscales fuera del país, en bunkers dentro y fuera de la nación.

A los trabajadores nos cargaran los costos de la guerra y seremos quienes más la sufriremos. La oligarquía billonaria tiene ya sus bunkers. Nosotros NO. Si perdemos la guerra la oligarquía no pierde. Si se gana la guerra, ellos si ganan. NOS nada, solo tendremos destrucción, miseria y pena por los caidos de la familia y del barrio. ]]
