@hisah and all - How are things in the global markets. Equities,currencies,interest rates,defaults,gold/silver...Highly appreciated.Have been following the posts but haven't been tracking the global scene this year.

Summary - currency wars aka competitive currency devaluation is picking up. Money printing (quantitative easing - QE) tsunami is at a record, mostly 0 - 1% CB funding rates to support record high QEs, gold/silver market getting hammered despite all the above! Manipulation at its best. Despite the gold/silver market manipulation, post GFC those two metals have outperformed global markets by far! Despite the money printing spree deflation is still in play as people refuse to spend and pay up debt. Govts vs civil discontent escalating with political heads rolling as civil pressure becomes hard to contain.

This site has a good recap - http://www.creditwritedowns.com


$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

This guy was called a hoax when he told BBC that GS rules the world and not gubberments - http://www.businessinsid...-alessio-rastani-2011-9

So far we know ex GS guys man US treasury. What about Europe?



And finally the last piece fits in after the rating downgrade of UK.



What a spectacular GS consolidation plan this is. This should be an all time case study on how to corner continents without military hardware. Very cheap this corporatocracy (as John Perkins would call it) strategy.

More from Sino-Zim: 'We are confident about the future of Zimbabwe' says China http://www.herald.co.zw/...-stories&Itemid=130 | Zim, China sign 3 MoU's http://www.sundaymail.co...-stories&Itemid=130 NB: The issue with main-street Zim (and Africa by extension) is not realizing that what they need is Investment & Trade, period. Still caught up in the personality cults creations of the (hostile) West yet food on the table is food on the table. SMH...Oh well...

^I mean, if your goods & services no longer sell here, you look for another mkt elsewhere - & that's biz, nothing personal. Now that it happens that Real demand is on the East, South & Africa you reinvent yourself, create new ties & remain relevant, unless running a Charity... smile

The message was passed way back in 2007. Watch Die Hard 4.

Now we have Die Hard 5 released 2 weeks back. Spot the message...

Internet control is the only option for corrupt corporate govts to control information flow. Citizen are becoming too informed beyond school doctrines thus becoming uncontrollable...

Council for Foreign Relations. World Economic Forum, Bilderberg group etc worried about this information freedom. It's bad for globalization schemes...

I really like it when CNBC dismisses gold and calls P. Schiff (a gold bull) to smash him on the same.

Golden trade coming up as it vaults past $2000 mark against the expectations of a crash to $1300. Herd mentality is ALWAYS bad business...

Yeah.It felt like I was reading about Die Hard 4.I don't think they will be able to control the internet at least not without a fight.I learnt that from Egypt when they shut off the internet and it got restored.

My latest fascination is the UK. They're on a power hike while devaluation of the pound is likely. The fireworks will be interesting going by last year's London protest. This is a lethal cocktail waiting for a trigger. On the same platform is Spain.
