ERUPT AGAIN 8-7-12 There was news from overseas as German Factory Orders fell
1.7% vs .8% expected and Italy reported its fourth
consecutive month of economic contraction. No worries, printing money will take
care of it. Meanwhile the Swiss are struggling to maintain the franc’s peg to
the euro at 120. As a result of interventions the SNB has accumulated $490B in forex reserves. Somehow they’ll have to find a way to
unload this but that’s “down the road” so no worries. Finally Spain states it

Intraday Market Moves While we have
looked in the past at the incredible dominance of FOMC days when it comes to
stock market performance, recent intraday performance of the major equity
indices has had a somewhat repetitive and rhythmic structure. We know volumes
surge, pause, and surge; Tradestation has dug one step deeper into the actual
performance structure intraday and found some fascinating trends. From the extremely clear
final-hour ramp to the oscillating bull-bear opening moves (and the European
close positive bias) across almost 30 years of price behavior in bull and bear
markets. The afternoons dominate market performance in bull
markets and the morning session dominates the weakness in bear markets - so fade the opening rally, buy the dip, cover half
into Europe, hope into the close appears the 'empirical route of least
resistance' - for now…’ , Guest

Wall Street Crime Pays - A 350% IRR To Be Exact Previously we
showed that when it comes to Wall Street's returns, the 8% market return
benchmark that every first year analyst finds in Ibbotson's is for naive
amateurs. With corporate lobbying returning anywhere between 5,900% and
77,500%, the real money is to be made in
the buying and selling of politicians. Yet in our day and age, when
information propagates rapidly and when political muppets
can be exposed for the Wall Street purchased frauds they are, lobbying is
getting increasingly more complicated. Which leaves one other
high returning "investment",
which unlike lobbying is completely riskless when one is a Wall Street firm: crime. But not just any
crime, the type of crime where a firm settles "without admitting or denying guilt" and in the process
is slapped with a fine that barely covers the government's legal fees. Case in
point: U.S. v. Morgan
Stanley, U.S.
District Court, Southern District of New York Case #11-6875, where MS was
punished with the epic disgorgement penalty of $4.8 million. Of course, the fact that Morgan Stanley,
who did not admit wrongdoing, generated profits of $21.6 million, is merely a
triviality. But a useful one: it allows to
calculate that on Wall Street crime does pay, and the IRR is in give or take
350%. , Guest
Post: US Government Proposes Law Making It Illegal For Them To Kill You Last Friday, US
Congressman Dennis Kucinich introduced HR 6357, a bill which aims to
‘prohibit the extrajudicial killing of United States citizens’ by the
federal government. In other words, in the Land of the Free, they need
to pass a law to prevent the government from indiscriminately murdering
its own citizens. Now if this doesn’t give one reason to pause and consider
the distortions of liberty that have taken place in western
civilization, I don’t know what will. Ask yourself, are you really living in a free society?
Are you free? If not, why not? What else could possibly be more important?
It takes courage to answer
honestly. , Gold And
Grand Theft Economics The tectonic battle between a market trying to
deflate its debts and the central banks attempting to reflate
the impaired assets to maintain the status quo is becoming increasingly violent.
In a brief clip, Santiago Capital's Brent Johnson explains the fallacy of fiat
money, the dynamics of the velocity of money in a 'troubled' economy, the 'we
are going to give the banks a lot of money' plans, and the inevitable 'there's
no more money' moment when the inflationary and deflationary tremors come
unstuck and become shock-waves. There
will be no warning, no bell-ringing at the onset of the end of the monetary
system itself as he notes the slate of Stability & Growth
Pacts (EU) and The Recovery and Reinvestment Act (US) will inevitably be seen
as the greatest unauthorized transfer of wealth in history - and being exposed
to gold stored outside of the banking system, there is a protected route as the
world staggers from tremor to tremor. , Guest
Post: A Matter Of Trust - Part Two
Putting our trust and faith in a few unelected bureaucrats and bankers,
who use their obscene wealth to buy off politicians in writing the laws and
regulations to favor them has proven to be a death knell for our country. The
captured main stream media proclaims these men to be heroes and saviors of the
world, when they are truly the villains in this episode. These are the men who
unleashed the frenzy of Wall Street greed and pillaging by repealing Glass Steagall, blocking Brooksley Born’s efforts to regulate derivatives, encouraging
mortgage fraud, not enforcing existing regulations, and creating speculative
bubbles through excessively low interest rates and making it known they would
bailout recklessness. They have created an overly complex tangled financial
system so they could peddle propaganda to the math challenged American public
without fear of being caught in their web of lies. Big government, big banks
and big legislation like Dodd/Frank and Obamacare are
designed to benefit the few at the expense of the many. The system has been
captured by a plutocracy of self-serving men. They don’t care about you or your
children. We are only given 80 years, or so, on this earth and our purpose
should be to sustain our economic and political system in a balanced way, so
our children and their children have a chance at a decent life. Do you trust
that is the purpose of those in power today? Should we trust the jackals and grifters who got us into this mess, to get us out?

“The
cult of equity is dying. Like a once bright green aspen turning to subtle
shades of yellow then red in the Colorado fall, investors’ impressions of
‘stocks for the long run’ or any run have mellowed as well. I ‘tweeted’ last
month that the souring attitude might be a generational thing: ‘Boomers can’t
take risk. Gen X and Y believe in Facebook but not
its stock. Gen Z has no money.’” And. . . .“Unfair
though it may be, an investor should continue to expect an attempted
inflationary solution in almost all developed economies over the next few years
and even decades. Financial repression, QEs of all
sorts and sizes, and even negative nominal interest rates now experienced in Switzerland and
five other Euroland countries may dominate the timescape. The cult of equity may be dying, but the cult of
inflation may only have just begun.”

FLASHBACK: Obama's Sordid High School Past...
By Ben Shapiro ‘While the Washington
Post has been diligently digging into relatively innocent high
school pranks
by Mitt Romney, they’ve spent the last few years diligently ignoring President
Obama’s far more controversial high school days.Obama,
by all accounts, was a habitual drug user in high school. He tried cocaine, he
admits in Dreams From
My Father; he “tried drugs enthusiastically.” The Chicago Tribune reported back in 2007
that Obama thanked the “Choom Gang” in his high school yearbook; “chooming” was Hawaiian slang for smoking pot. The Honolulu Advertiser reported that Obama’s
senior portrait “prominently displayed … A package of ‘Zig-Zag’
rolling papers and a matchbook.” One of Obama’s close friends was arrested for
drug possession during high school.In his memoir,
Obama talked about routinely getting high. “Junkie.
Pothead,” he wrote. “That’s where I’d been headed: the final, fatal role of the
young would-be black man.” But, according to Obama, he only got high because he
was contemplating deep matters: drugs could “push questions of who I was out of
my mind.” Obama told students in 2007 that this activity constituted “goofing
off” and “wasting time”:"I will confess to you
that I was kind of a goof off in high school as my mom reminded me," Obama
said. "I went to high school in Hawaii,
so there's a lot of opportunity to goof off because the weather is really good
all the time …"You know, I made some bad decisions …. You know, got into
drinking and experimenting with drugs. There was a whole stretch of time where
I didn't apply myself. It wasn't until I got out of … high school, and went to
college that I started realizing, man, I wasted a lot of time.”The
New York Times, however, went
out of its way to find Obama’s classmates to testify that drugs played only a “bit
part” in Obama’s youth. Yet Obama would later brag on the campaign trail
that he “inhaled frequently … that was the point.”During
his high school years, Obama hung out with communist radical Frank Marshall
Davis; in 2007, the Los Angeles Times
reported that during his high school days, “he felt the first stirrings of
anger toward whites. He says he also delved into black
nationalism.” He was “offended or even enraged when white classmates
adopted black street slang or revealed their underlying consciousness of his
race by going out of their way to tell him how much they admired a black
musician or athlete.” This activity is certainly more reflective of Obama’s
ideological history than Mitt Romney’s pranks on teachers and fellow students.
And as for the drug use – well, that seems just a bit more serious than walking
a teacher into a door or cutting a student’s hair. But leave it to the Post to ignore or downplay all of that in
favor of continuing stories about Romney’s dog, his high school hijinks, and whatever other nonsense they can use to
protect President Obama from his own incompetence.’ Ben Shapiro is Breitbart

Downplays Obama's Past, Tries to Define Romney with Teen Prank
If we're going to delve deep into a candidate's past, let's delve deep into a

a little girl named Coretta. Yes, it was at this moment that the first
shot in the War on Women was fired.
http://albertpeia.com/obamashovesgirl.png
No doubt that after expending all that energy
bullying an innocent little girl, young Obama readied himself
for round two by eating a Golden Retriever. More on this breaking story here.If
you're wondering what the rules are regarding a candidate's past; how far back
we're allowed to go in an attempt to define them -- the answer is simple: the
corrupt media will let us know.
Washington
Post Disgraces Itself By Targeting Romney's 'Anti-Gay' High School Pranks by Ben
Shapiro { It is true! The once great now failed
newspaper, the washington post, is an absolute disgrace! But a shadow of its former self, the post is biased presumably owing to shared desperation with the failed
president wobama in return for access. So egregious
had the bias become wherein ‘sensitive’ commentary antithetical to wobama and his, seldom seemed to work/post properly; and, then of course, the post’s
pro-wobama perpetual darkness-induced blind
‘constituency’. I stopped posting
there and have not visited their site since nor will I ever again. A rather pathetic swansong / end / wind-down / final chapter for what was once a great
newspaper for which I had the utmost regard and respect! }
