AfDB plans $22 billion Pan African infrastrusture bond.

Way to go AfDB rather than investing in euroland's negative yield bonds.

Also, Standard Bank SA, on behalf of China, recently offered FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER eastern & western African Central Banks Yuan/RMB bond to diversify currency reserves - Google it.

I was not aware of this yuan bonds for Africa CBs. Didn't expect Tz CB to be a top dim sum bond buyer alongside Nigeria (expected due to their public declaration on foreign reserves diversification).

I hope CBK got some piece of action. But IMF pouring funds of late in KE, I highly doubt Ndungu got to buy this dim sum bond offer...

'Financial cliff' as they're calling it when those tax breaks come to screeching halt by year end...

Financial cliff = debt ceiling burst + tax breaks expiration

Market fear gauge at 5yr low 'an optical illusion'

That was CNN Money headline back on March 15 2012

http://money.cnn.com/201...ear-index-vix/index.htm

The CBOE VIX index is at it again, at 5yr lows, actually lower than in March. US markets have in the process recovered from the April-July selling bout and trying to test the 2012 highs. Another selling bout period is coming...

Just like back in March, the trade protection to take is BGZ longs. With vapour volume pushing the market up from July lows, the bulls will not stand a chance when the correction ensues.

@ Hisah, a financial cliff the year 2013 will be. That should add to the witches brew of rising unemployment, drought, rising food prices and general feeling of discontent with the wealthy and ruling class in the United States.

The United States: Timing the Path to Unrest


Dear Friends,

Let us begin with cycle analysis by Martin Armstrong. The 224 Year Cycle of Political Change in the United States peaked in 1637 with the revolution in England to end torture from the infamous Star Chamber. Adding 224 to 1637 brings us to 1861, the upheaval of the American Civil War.

The Cycle points to 2013 (1861+112+31.4+8.6) as beginning of political unrest in the United States feeding off the 8.6 year political down-cycle in Iran/Persia and Europe. Tremors are already being felt. Protests have begun in cash strapped Wisconsin, spreading to Ohio over budget cuts that will affect public workers.
