11 Quotes That Show How Worried The Financial World Is About Europe Right Now http://albertpeia.com/financialworriesabouteurope.htm ‘…The following are 11 quotes that show how worried the financial world is about Europe right now....

#1 Tres Knippa of Kenai Capital Management: "What is going on in Europe is an absolute disaster…the risk-on trade is not the place to be. I want to be out of equities and very, very defensive because the situation in Europe just got worse after those elections."

#2 Mark McCormick, currency strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman: "We’re going to have higher tensions, more uncertainty and most likely a weaker euro."

#3 Nick Stamenkovic, investment strategist at RIA Capital Markets in Edinburgh: "Investors are questioning whether Greece will be a part of the single currency at the end of this year."

#4 Jörg Asmussen, a European Central Bank executive board member: "Greece needs to be aware that there is no alternative to the agreed reform program if it wants to remain a member of the eurozone"

#5 Tristan Cooper, sovereign debt analyst at Fidelity Worldwide Investment: "A Greek eurozone exit is on the cards although the probability and timing of such an event is uncertain."

#6 Art Cashin: "Here’s the outlook on Greece from Wall Street watering holes. If a coalition government is formed or looks to be formed, global markets may rally. Any coalition is unlikely to make progress on goals, since austerity is political suicide. There will likely be another election around June 10/17. A workable majority/plurality remains unlikely, so back to square one. Therefore, Greece will be unable to attain goals by the deadline (June 30). Lacking aid funds, pensions are suspended and government workers are laid off. Protestors take to the streets and government is forced to revert to drachma to avoid social chaos. Pass the peanuts, please."

#7 John Noonan, Senior Forex Analyst with Thomson Reuters in Sydney: "Sentiment is very bearish, The euro is under a lot of pressure right now. I get the feeling that it’s going to be a nasty move lower for the euro finally"

#8 Kenneth S. Rogoff, a professor of economics at Harvard: "A Greek exit would underscore that there’s no realistic long-term plan for Europe, and it would lead to a chaotic endgame for the rest of the euro zone."

#9 Chris Tinker of Libra Investment Services: "It’s a binary decision. If Greece gets itself to the point where the European administration says, ‘We can’t play this game anymore,’ that starts a domino effect"

#10 Nicolas Véron, a senior fellow at Bruegel: "France has very limited fiscal space and actually has to engage in fiscal consolidation"

#11 80-year-old Greek citizen Panagiota Makri: "I'm confused. I feel numb and confused. Only God can save us now"

All of this comes at a time when much of Europe is already descending into a new recession. Economies all over Europe are contracting and unemployment rates are skyrocketing…’

UN: Mt. Rushmore Should Return to Native Americans { It’s truly hilarious how jones et als attempt to spin the fundamental, historical truth of inherent american criminality into some grand elitist conspiracy from without. Yet, the reality of within speaks for itself; and, I’ve seen inherent american criminality first hand, which inherent traits are at the core of virtually all jones et als posit as fatally problematic for the nation. I am smart, tough, and know the law; and, I have seen american inherent criminality, corruption, despoliation up close and personal, first hand, and know what ‘is’, is (then there’s also the plethora of observable, empirical data that even the blind couldn’t ignore):

24 Facts That Prove That America Is A Nation Of Slobshttp://albertpeia.com/24factsproveamericaanationofslobs.htm }

Dave’s Daily: http://www.etfdigest.com MORE TWO WAY MARKET ACTION 5-9-12 ‘Greece is at a political impasse (as if you care now). Spain saw most bank stocks getting trashed (Bank Santander down 6%) while sovereign debt exceeded 6% for the first time since November 2011—and that wasn’t a great period. Moody’s is set to cut ratings on over 100 banks but recently most investors don’t seem to regard credit ratings with much concern. (Well, they did shoot themselves in the foot right?)Chinese stocks fell sharply after Cosco holdings dropped more than 4% on fears of a slowdown in shipping. And, SAIC Motor slid 2.9% after the Chinese government banned state-owned companies from buying expensive vehicles for executives. (What would GM do?) Also, according to Nomura securities sales, heavy construction machinery was declining.Once again stocks opened sharply lower only to see some buying later in the trading day. This action is either from those wishing to defend their positions or the usual crowd of dip buyers. Perhaps all this late day buying is wasted buying power. After all, despite repeated selling or distribution the VIX has remained oddly relatively low making bulls rather complacent.Perhaps they believe the Fed has their backs with more QE. It’s not a silly thought on their part given how far down the QE road the Bernank & Co has already gone. (“In for a penny, in for a pound”?) But even Fed Governor Kocherlakota was off the official “talking points” today stating the Fed needs to set the ZIRP exit date. And, Goldman Sachs reduced GDP estimates to 1.9% which is way off the Fed’s more cheerful outlook.There wasn’t much in the way of economic news but earnings news from stalwarts like Macy’s (M) disappointed investors…’ , INFOWARS.COM http://www.infowars.com On the Wednesday, May 9 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex talks with Douglas J. Hagmann, founder and director of the Northeast Intelligence Network. He is also the CEO of a private investigative agency serving a roster of Fortune 500 clients. Due to his expertise in covert surveillance and counter-terrorism, Mr. Hagmann has been used as an operational asset by the U.S. Department of Justice, the FBI, as well as the Pennsylvania and New York State Police agencies. Earlier this month, Doug said high-level, reliable sources told him the Department of Homeland Security is preparing for “massive civil war” in America as a result of a collapse of the dollar and the hyperinflation that will result. Alex also continues his coverage of the Army's re-education camps and the upcoming Bilderberg confab in Virginia. , The euro crisis: No way out (The Economist) — THE conventional wisdom that emerged immediately after Europe’s weekend elections—that voters may have forced Europe into a new crisis reckoning—seems to have been correct. Greece is struggling to put together a government and whatever government eventually emerges will probably press for a renegotiation of its bail-out deal. Euro-zone officials are saying that this is out of the question. Odds of a Greek departure from the euro zone appear to be rising sharply; Intrade now puts the chance of exit in 2012 at close to 40%, up from 22% a week ago. Markets are shuddering at the possibility; European equities are dropping like stones, yields around the periphery are jumping—Spain’s 10-year yield is back above 6%—and German yields are sinking to record lows. Big trouble is brewing. , Extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of machines http://albertpeia.com/madnessofmachines.htm , Europe's Most Parabolic Chart Goes Parabolic-er ZeroHedge.com , Guest Post: What Austerity? , 11th Consecutive Outflow From US Equity Mutual Funds Pulls Cash Levels To Record Lows , Market Has Longest Losing Streak In 10 Months , Bank Of Spain Formally Nationalizes Bankia, Says Insolvent Bank Is "Solvent", Adds There Is No Cause For Concern , Spain's Bank "Bailout" A Complete Dud: Allows Banks To Opt-Out, Sprott Berates Berkshire's Buffoons And Says "All Markets Are Manipulated" {This is true beyond all words; especially for the bumpkin shills like buffet!} , Guest Post: The Death Spiral Of Debt, Risk And Jobs What we have is a Central State and an economy that has borrowed and squandered trillions of dollars on consumption and malinvestment in unproductive "stranded" assets. The debt and risk pile up, while the labor that results from consumption is temporary and does not create wealth or permanent employment. Figuratively speaking, we're stranded in a McMansion in the middle of nowhere, a showy malinvestment that produces no wealth or value, and we're wondering how we're going to pay the gargantuan mortgage and student loans. Debt and the risk generated by rising debt create a death-spiral when the money is squandered on consumption, phantom assets, speculation and malinvestments. Sadly, that systemic misallocation of capital puts the job market in a death spiral, too. , Eurozone Refuses To Blink: Will Hold Back €1 Billion From Greek Payment To Monday , Nigel Farage: "The EU Titanic Has Now Hit The Iceberg"

Frauds interlink and grow upon each other. Our debt-based money system serves as the fraud foundation. In our debt-based money system, debt must grow in order to create money. Therefore, there is no way to pay off aggregate debt with available money. More money must be lent into the system to make the payments for old debts. This causes overall debt to expand as new money for actual people (vs. banks) always arrives at interest and compounds exponentially. This process is called financialization. Financialization: The process of making money from nothing in which debt (i.e. poverty, lack) is paradoxically considered an asset (i.e. wealth, gain). In current financialized economies “wealth expansion” comes from the parasitic taxation of productivity in the form of interest on fiat lending. This interest over time consumes a greater and greater share of resources, assets, labor, and livelihood until nothing is left., Guest Post: Money from Nothing - A Primer on Fake Wealth Creation and its Implications (Part 2) ZeroHedge.com 3-14-12 Only in a debt-based money system could debt be curiously cast as an asset. We’ve made “extend and pretend” a quaint phrase for a burgeoning market for financial lying and profiteering aimed toward preventing the collapse of a debt- (or lack-) based system that was already doomed by its initial design to collapse. , Guest Post: The Audacity of Bonuses At MF Global Durden 3-12-12 In the spirit of George Orwell’s Animal Farm commandment: “all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal then others” comes the galling news that bankruptcy trustee, Louis Freeh, could approve the defunct, MF Global to pay bonuses to certain senior executives. This, despite the fact that nearly $1.6 billion of customer funds remains “missing” or otherwise partially accounted for, yet beyond the reach of those customers, perhaps forever, since before the firm declared bankruptcy on October 31, 2011... ,
