As Avenue Capital's Marc Lasry
shockingly told CNBC:
"none of
this [equity rally] is based on fundamentals, this is all about what The Fed is
doing... and sooner or later reality will reassert itself."

So, everything is awesome?
Well, Jim
Bianco warns that any recovery from here will be "slow and
long" and adds that:
“I understand the market has been up a
lot since the March low. But what
I see in the market is a retracement rally that looks very similar to the first
type of rallies that you get in protracted bear markets."
Bianco added, ominously that:
"we'll
revisit the 2,200 S&P low, if not make a lower low - probably by late
summer,” he
said.
“That’s going to come because we’re going
to find out now is a critical time for the market.”
Oh and in case you were thinking of

At least our satanic overlords have a sense of humor.
According
to the latest
Fed balance sheet, as of April 29, the Fed's balance sheet increased by
82.8 billion dollars over the past week, rising to a record
6,655,929,000,000 which, of course rounds up to $6.66
trillion (also, who can possibly forget that 666 was also the "generational
bottom" on the S&P hit on March 6, 2009)
SEE
CHART:
Whether
one uses the rounded or unrounded number, the Fed's balance sheet has increased
by $2.5 trillion in the past two months, and continues to grow as per the
following schedule, which sees the Fed purchasing on
average $10BN per day in Treasurys and $8BN in MBS, which while still
staggering is a fraction of the $125BN the Fed was buying in late March.
SEE
CHART:
Some
other observations: according to the latest H.4.1 report,
there was a total of $121 billion in borrowings on the
Fed's emergency bailout/alphabet soup facilities - which are separate from QE -
of which the largest was the money market mutual fund facility, which had
$47.5BN outstanding, followed by the Primary Dealer credit facility with
$28.6BN, both of which were down over $2BN on the week.

Most people don’t realize what a huge role the oil industry plays in
the US economy...
Prices have collapsed and storage is nearly full.
The only option for many producers is to shut in their wells. That means no
income. Most have considerable debt so bankruptcy is next.
It’s Really Bad
The estimate in Figure 1 differs from most
forecasts in two important ways. First, I believe that supply will fall much
faster than most other sources. That is because storage
will soon be full and shutting in production will be the only option for many
producers.
SEE Chart:
Diesel cannot be produced without first producing gasoline. The U.S.
has had a gasoline surplus since late 2014 and the current surplus is the
highest in 5 years (Figure 2).
SEE
CHART:
Figure 2. U.S. gasoline comparative inventory has
increased 30 million barrels since March 20 to a record level of 28.4 million
barrels more than the five-year average. Source: EIA and Labyrinth Consulting
Services, Inc.
Figure
3 is another thought experiment in which I use tight
oil rig count and output to estimate forward levels of U.S. production. The
normal trajectory is an estimate of how production might decline as rigs are
idled from lack of capital investment. It suggests that tight oil production
might decrease by about 50% from 7 to 3.5 mmb/d by July 2021.
SEE
CHART:
Energy is the Economy
Seventeen investment analysts recently
estimated that U.S. GDP would contract an average of 30-35% in 2020 (Figure 5)
within a range of 9-50%. The correlation shown in
Figure 4 suggests it will decrease by about 20-25% based on estimated decrease
in U.S. oil consumption. Any value within this spectrum is catastrophic.
See CHART:
Economist Lawrence
Summers has warned that the U.S. financial
system may collapse because of cascading defaults. Approximately 25% of U.S.
renters did not pay their landlords and 23% of Americans did not make their mortgage
payment in April. When people don’t pay their
creditors, creditors in turn cannot pay their creditors. For comparison, a 28%
mortgage default rate contributed to the 2008
financial collapse.
Joseph
Stiglitz recently explained that the current pandemic will affect the developing world more severely than it has developed
countries. It might lead to mass migration problems that could dwarf the
dislocations of the last six years out of Africa and the Middle East.

US DOMESTIC POLITICS
Seudo democ duopolico in US is obsolete; it’s full of frauds &
corruption. Urge cambio
Yes, COVID-19
kills people. But so does a collapsed economy. Finally, states are beginning to
let more businesses open.But there’s a
problem. A big one, that could keep crucial businesses closed...

A = coronavirus... B = economic
meltdown... and B was in the works
long before A came along...
====
Expect wave after wave of infections, andwave after wave of lockdowns by complicit
government officials. And when COVID-19 doesn't scare people
anymore, all the elites have to do
is release ANOTHER virus...

BEYOND XENOPHOBIC WW3…
What is the purpose of US conflict
with China?
Hugo Adan 4/30/20
Here my reaction to this article:
"Yes, I have [seen evidence that the virus originated in the
Wuhan lab] and I think the WHO should be ashamed of themselves because they
were like the public relations agency for China."
….
….
If
not WW3 is perhaps
the nasty tactic of extortion & blackmail policy to extract free money in
exchange for Peace.
IF
so, what is the
amount of money the US owed to JAPAN for Hiroshima-Nagasaki nuclear
bombing? Does US has the money?
How much the US owes to Iran and Syria for using bio-chemical
weapons in previous and current war. Are we gona compensate them for the crimes
US-UK committed with the help of Saudi jihadists mercenaries?
How much the US owes to the entire world fore infesting the
environment & hitting and burning entire
jungles around the globe;
How much the US owes to the
world for damaging environment with
military drills around the
globe.
All these faults were done intentionally; the US Knew its lethal
effects.
Can the US prove that China create the virus intentionally. They instead can prove that China provide
codes to make different vaccines against CV to different countries in the
world, including the US.
Their policy against Corona Virus in China was successful because they
have a Health System supported by SOES
(state Owned Enterprises) that immediately responded to this pest. It was not the 1st pest in China
Hist.We delay too much for our response & we have a system of Health with
total lack of resources. We should learn from them.
What if China prove that US create this CV in PENTA-NATO labs (can US allow China scientist to get inside
PENTA Labs?.
What if China prove that PENTA virus get inside China with the help
of CIA apparatus working in US
Embassies and in contact with the chinese opposition to the Central Govt.
IN
FACT, there are more geo-political reasons for the US to destroy China
-the main competitor in the world market- that in reverse. So, Presid Trump, you must drop this case and don’t expect one
single penny from China. This type of xenophobic threat
is just ridiculous.

"If we keep being flexible on the border, our national

"I fear we

that fear is a legitimate one, there is an equally powerful fear: that more lives will be lost if
businesses remain forcibly closed by the state.
