Neoliberal globalization is over. Financiers know it, they documented with graphics

"SPEND AS MUCH AS YOU CAN... AND THEN SPEND A LITTLE MORE!"

Are you ready for this week’s absurdity?

Governments across the world are in massive debt. And essentially all of them continue to finance their debt by printing money. Meanwhile economies have shrank over the past year due to COVID restrictions on travel, and business.

So more debt, a smaller economy, and more paper money than ever, with nothing backing it…

What could possibly go wrong?

"IMMORAL HAZARD": WHY BOFA IS CERTAIN THE DAY OF RECKONING IS ALMOST HERE

by Tyler Durden

"There are two types of investors" those who want to get rich, and those that want to stay rich”. This suggests a late-stage of speculative blow-off.

That's how Michael Hartnett begins his latest Flow Show note, warning that "when those who want to stay rich start acting like those who want to get rich, “it suggests a late-stage speculative blow-off" when one looks at Game-stop today is precisely where in the bubble we are today. Yet even though- some speculative "froth" assets have gotten hit, with Bitcoin and CRISPR rolling on one hand, on the other China tech & renewables still rising (and actually so is bitcoin... again).

2020 EXISTING HOME SALES HIGHEST SINCE 2006 IN "UNHEALTHY MARKET"

by Tyler Durden

“Today’s market is unhealthy, people are making hurried decisions and prices are rising way above income growth,”

Despite the usual seasonal slowdown expected, Existing Home Sales rose modestly in December (+0.7% MoM vs -1.9% MoM exp), bucking the trend of downturn into year-end...

“Homeowners are smiling because they’re seeing price increases,” Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist, said on a call with reporters.

“The frustration is coming from the first-time buyers who don’t have any housing equity and they’re trying to save up for a down payment.

“Today’s market is unhealthy, people are making hurried decisions and prices are rising way above income growth,” Yun said.

Additionally, available inventory declined 23% from a year earlier to 1.07 million units, the NAR said. It would take 1.9 months to sell all the homes on the market at the current pace, also a record low.

US DOMESTIC POLITICS

Seudo democ duopolico in US is obsolete; it’s full of frauds & corruption. Urge cambio

IS IT ALMOST OVER: US SEES RECORD ONE-DAY DROP IN COVID HOSPITALIZATIONS

by Tyler Durden

If only Biden's inauguration had been a few months earlier...

In the last few days - really since the BIden inauguration - we have seen declarations of victory over covid across the board, from the likes of Dr. Fauci who yesterday said that coronavirus infections may be about to hit a "plateau", to Wall Street, where Bank of America yesterday declared "The Beginning Of The End Of The COVID Crisis."

In its chart of the day, BofA showed that the US is now clearly over the hump, with 142,000 COVID cases in the US on Monday, down 32% from the prior Monday with the seven day average also dropping to 209,000, down 16% from the peak on January 8th."

See Chart:

https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/new%20covid%20cases%20bofa_0.jpg?itok=0JMMZYFS

Bloomberg cites the latest Covid Tracking Project data according to which, the number of people currently hospitalized with Covid dropped by 2,773 in a single day to 119,927, while the one-week drop of 9,020 was also a record, the data show. More importantly, the decrease is accelerating on a percentage basis.

See Chart:

Sign of Relief?

https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/signs%20of%20relief.jpg?itok=phtl0A04

To be sure, the absolute number of people with Covid-19 in hospitals is still extraordinarily high, and while the virus remains prevalent in much of the country, it is now following the hospitalization scenario laid out by Goldman...

See Chart:

US Hospitaliz show a significant trend following initial targeted vaccinations

https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/GS%20hospitalizations.jpg?itok=EuZD5AFN

... which said that "as vaccinations ramp with the targeted population we see the potential for significant further declines in US hospitalizations in the coming weeks" and in fact predicts no more covid-related hospitalizations in just a few months. The data also corroborates what we published in mid-December when we used Goldman's analysis when we explained "Why Covid Hospitalizations And Deaths Are About To Plunge."

Meanwhile, as Bloomberg notes "the U.S. is also entering the second month of its vaccination push, with 18 million doses of the vaccine administered, or 5.62 people per 100, according to the Bloomberg Vaccine Tracker. Fauci has estimated that the U.S. needs to vaccinate more than 70% of its people to return to a degree of normalcy."

Which means that between those Americans who already have natural immunity to covid (from having survived it) and those who will get the vaccine in the next several months, herd immunity should be a fact of life by the late spring (unless, of course, Fauci moves the goalposts again, or a new mutant strain with immunity to all vaccines mysteriously emerges in the next few weeks).

The Qt should be: most popular army forever or only until they commit suicide: genocid

MOST.POPULAR.PRESIDENT.EVER...?

by Tyler Durden

"engagement"?

The media heralded Biden after he pulled off the 'stunning' achievement of garnering the most votes in presidential history with over 81 million, beating Barack Obama’s previous record of 69.5 million.

However, as Summit News' Paul Joseph Watson points out, Biden being the most popular person to win the Oval Office in history doesn’t seem to translate to enthusiasm for his speeches, which are typically watched online by a paltry amount of viewers.

Case in point, the most-viewed clip on the official 'The White House" channel on YouTube (with 1.9 million subscribers), a 31 minute video of Biden’s inauguration (with over 450,000 views), has 9,400 thumbs up compared to 43,000 thumbs down.

As PJW concludes, Biden is supposedly “the most popular president in U.S. history,” but you wouldn’t know it by looking at his YouTube analytics.

AMERICANS ARE SUFFERING THROUGH THE MOST PAINFUL ECONOMIC CRISIS SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION

Authored by Michael Snyder via TheMostImportantNews.com,

"The fallout by this time next year will be shocking..."

I warned that an economic collapse was coming, and an economic collapse is exactly what we got. 2020 was a “personal financial disaster” for 55 percent of all Americans, approximately 12 million U.S. renters are “at least $5,850 behind in rent and utilities payments”, the Aspen Institute is projecting that up to 40 million people could be facing eviction when the rent and mortgage moratoriums finally end, and more than 70 million new claims for unemployment benefits have been filed since the COVID pandemic began.

Nobody can point to a time since the Great Depression of the 1930s when the U.S. economy was in worse shape than it is right now.

Unfortunately, there are no indications that this nightmare is going to end. Last week, another 900,000 Americans filed new claims for unemployment benefits…

At this point, the number of new claims for unemployment benefits has been above 695,000 for 44 weeks in a row.

That is starting to come close to a full year.

This unemployment crisis has hit low wage workers particularly hard. At this point, even Fed officials are being forced to admit that the unemployment rate for low wage workers “is above 20%”.

Many of those low wage workers used to be employed in the restaurant industry, but the restaurant industry continues to be mired in the worst stretch that it has ever encountered…
