Art Cashin On Chief Justice Bernanke's "Delay And Pray" Strategy
A
few weeks ago America had to go through the supreme political theater
that was the SCOTUS' unprecedented and uber-political decision on
Obamacare, which in attempting to overcome allegations of partisanship,
only succeeded in reinforcing these even deeper. Now, with everyone
expecting Bernanke to launch QE every time there is a 1% downtick in the
Russell, our honorable Chairsatan is in the same position: he needs to
do something but can not afford to appear political with the
presidential election just over 3 months away. In other words, from the
soap opera about the Supreme Court of the US, we now move to the one
about the Supreme Federal Reserve of the US. And the trouble for those
whose investment strategy is hope and prayer is that the Fed is becoming
aware of this reflexive phenomenon, and just for that reason may delay
QE until September, by which point the US, and global economy, will be
in freefall.Treasury Yields Tumble To New All-Time Lows
Despite
some early angst, Treasury yields have been crushed lower today. Down
7bps from their European close levels, 30Y is trading with a 2.45%
handle for the first time ever and 10Y now with a 1.39% handle. Both
all-time record lows as the 2Y auctions with a 4x bid-to-cover as 2s5s
flattens to almost five year lows as the Fed's ZIRP and Europe's NIRP
has pushed investors to front-run into preservation of capital instead
of pushing them out on the risk spectrum. For those who care (instead of
preferring to listen to dividend-stock-touting talking heads), 10Y
TSYs have plenty of room to run if rates keep falling (15% upside if
Japanification takes hold) - which prompts the question - just what is the interest expense convexity for the Government if rates were ever to rise from here?Biderman Goes All-In Bearish
"While there are many reasons to be bearish on stocks, there is only one good reason to be bullish. The only bullish hope is that the Bernanke Put again will save the stock market"
is the salient reality that TrimTabs' CEO Charles Biderman exclaims in
his latest clip. Shifting to 100% bearish this weekend for his
institutional clients, he believes that even if the Fed QuEases again,
the equity pop is well-discounted and will have at most a 10% impact
before he sees at least a 20% drop from April highs followed by potentially worse as the realization of the fiscal cliff begins.
The glass-half-full-of-truth Biderman notes four specific reasons for
his bearish call: from wage and salary growth slowing to barely
positive YoY, to the Fed's inability to create any multiplier effect to
boost the economy; and from the slowing global economy where "low tides will uncover all the hidden garbage created by booms"
to the basic supply/demand of stock and money based on his 'Demand'
index dropping to six-month lows. His bearish view is not even
predicated on Europe's conflagration accelerating which would simply add
more fuel to the growing fire.David Einhorn Throws France Under The Bond Vigilante Bus
David Einhorn throws France under the bond vigilante bus, last seen meandering back and forth all over Spain and Italy: "Under the new regime, France is now cozying up to its new anti-austerity, pro-money-printing allies, Italy and Spain. This makes sense when one considers that France's economy is more akin to that of its southern neighbors than it is to the German economy. Strangely, the French bond market hasn’t figured this out just yet."Precious Metals Succumbing to Deflationary Forces Today

Both Gold and Silver are under selling pressure today as the sell off in
the grains seems to have pushed a large amount of hot money out of the
commodity sector. Soybeans are currently locked at limit down as is the
front month corn contract. Talk that Smithfield is importing corn from
Brazil has sent supply side bulls scurrying for cover and demand side bears
are pressing their case. The pool in the July was 112K at one time and is

FX Market Gives Up On NEW QE; Leaving Only US Equities 'Believing'
Back in early May we noted
that the 'strength' of EURUSD (at the time around 1.30) implied an
expectation of a $700bn Fed NEW QE is on its way very soon - in fact, as
recent developments by the two central banks have demonstrated, it was
the ECB that added assets (and liabilities) over the past two months,
even as the Fed has shed some excess weight. In those following six
weeks, EURUSD has fallen nearly 1000pips in our favor as the FX market
has finally given up hope of imminent printing (with only the most addicted of markets - US equities - left 'believing'). As Fed and ECB balance sheets have shifted in the last few weeks, so the new 'QE-less' target for EURUSD is around 1.1850 (200 pips lower), though we would suggest taking some healthy profits to leave a runner.
by Dr. Jeffrey Lewis, Gold Seek:
The mainstream financial media touts a variety of ‘anti-inflation’
investments that can be used to protect wealth against the ravages of
inflation. These typically range from buying commodities like oil and
coal to more sophisticated instruments like inflation-protected
treasuries and annuities.While such investments may appear to be inflation-proof on paper, none of these investment vehicles have the solid intrinsic value of gold, silver or any of the other precious metals.
Intrinsic Value is Everlasting
Intrinsic value does not mean that the product may have value for some time, or even for a long time. Instead, intrinsic value signifies that the item has value forever.
Unlike the steadily declining value of intrinsically worthless paper fiat currency, the worth of an item with true intrinsic value remains relatively unchanged over time and is roughly worth the same amount today as it was thousands of years ago.
Gold and silver are some of the few products with intrinsic value, which would also include necessities of life such as food and shelter. Furthermore, these metals have been in demand for thousands of years for their natural beauty and use in jewelry.

Gun sales in Colorado and elsewhere in the country have spiked exponentially since Friday’s tragic mass shooting in Aurora.
The Denver Post reported today that 1,216 background checks were conducted in Colorado on Friday alone for people looking to purchase a gun. That equates to a 43 percent increase compared to the average number of checks for the previous two Fridays,
Friday through Sunday, Colorado approved a total of 2,887 background checks, again a 43% rise on the same period in the previous week.
“A lot of it is people saying, ‘I didn’t think I needed a gun, but now I do,’” Jake Meyers, a worker at the Parker gun store, told the Denver Post. “When it happens in your backyard, people start reassessing – ‘Hey, I go to the movies.’”
“It’s been insane,” Meyers added, referring to the amount of people seeking training for a concealed carry permit, a legal right in 49 of the 50 US states.

Today the Godfather of newsletter writers, Richard Russell, shocked
King World News with this remarkable and extremely dire prediction: “The
primary bear market — the leveraging and inflation and lying and
cheating and shenanigans lasted from 1945 to 2007, about 62 years. My
guess is that it will require maybe one-third of that time or roughly 20
years to clean out the economic stupidity and nonsense of those 62
years. That could take this bear market out to the year 2027.”
“Twenty years would be a long time for a bear market, even a secular bear market. Therefore, you should know that I do not expect the market to head straight down for 20 long years. Actually, in the coming 20 years I expect to see a number of short cyclical bull and bear markets (much like the 1956 to 1974 period), and I expect to see many periods of boring trading ranges — all occurring within the overall pattern of a secular bear market.

Rogers dismissed fears
over a hard landing and said both Hugh Hendry, who runs the Eclectica
Absolute Return Fund and SocGen’s Albert Edwards are dead wrong to be so
negative on the Chinese economy.
“Hugh has been dead
wrong about China for three years now and China has not collapsed as he
predicted, loudly, verbally and widely” said Rogers. Hendry used an
interview with the Financial Times last week to predict bad things for investors and the global economy but has otherwise been keeping a low profile after betting on difficult times for China.

“You’ve got to jump off cliffs and build your wings on the way down” – Ray Bradbury
“Doctors say that Nordberg has a 50/50 chance of living, though there’s only a 10 percent chance of that.” – ‘Ed’ (George Kennedy), The Naked Gun
“Well, it’s true: “inevitable” is not the same thing as “imminent.” When people see that something is inevitable — and I’m guilty of this mistake myself — they tend to believe those things are also imminent, even when that’s not so. But the inevitable is inevitable, and that means it must happen. We usually can’t predict exactly when — and such things often take far longer to arrive than we imagine they possibly can — but once things start to unravel, they tend to accelerate quickly.” – Doug Casey
For whatever reason, there are not very many famous ‘Cliffs’ in the pages of history. It just appears, by pure happenstance, to be one of those names bestowed upon people destined for lives of quiet dignity as opposed to great fanfare. Such is the way of the world I suppose, though do spare a thought for your humble scribe who shares a name with the actor and operatic tenor who ‘famously’ played Scott Carey, the hero of the ‘seminal science fiction film’ “The Incredible Shrinking Man” – trust me, not a claim-to-fame one advertises readily. There was a mild improvement in my fortunes in 1974 when a boy was born who would also share my nomenclative misfortune but eventually grow up to become a marginally successful New England Patriots offensive linebacker.

While this has not been widely reported in the Western media, news
broke this week of a massive illegal gold-futures trading scam in China.
Not only does it underscore the growing hunger for gold among the newly
minted Chinese middle class, but also hits home the rationale for
owning physical gold, according to one U.S. based asset manager.
Over 5,000 investors were bilked out of 380 billion yuan, or $59.62 billion in a scheme involving Loco London gold since 2008, according to a report in the China Daily.
While details are unclear how the scam worked, the implications could be bullish for gold in a number of ways. Perhaps gold prices could be at even higher levels than they are right now, if this money had been properly invested.
“That is obviously a very significant amount, this is an enormous scam,” said Adrian Day, president of Adrian Day Asset Management. Looking ahead, Day noted that “It might make Chinese investors turn towards the physical rather than esoteric contracts.”
“I don’t think it will make Chinese people not buy gold, it will just make them want to buy physical gold and keep it,” Day said.
The newly minted Chinese middle class has a natural cultural affinity towards gold, it is a cultural distinction that many Westerners underestimate and perhaps don’t appreciate.

What will become of Spain’s economy
and the Eurozone? What will it mean for Australia if Europe does
fracture in the coming weeks? We’ll seek to answer those questions, and
more, in today’s Daily Reckoning.
By the way, we’re taking the reins from regular DR editor Dan Denning for the next few weeks. Dan’s currently in Vancouver presenting at Agora’s annual symposium. Dan will be mixing it with the likes of economic historian Niall Ferguson, Marc Faber and Doug Casey. We’re sure he’ll have some worthwhile stories to share upon his return.
By the time he gets back, the financial world could look decidedly different. We are but weeks away from the Spanish economy losing access to capital markets entirely. Overnight, yields on all government debt maturities shot up to extreme levels. The 10-year yield hit a peak of 7.56%. The two year bond yield jumped a huge 100 basis points to a peak of 6.74%, indicating investors have no faith in the European Central Bank’s (ECB) efforts to calm markets (via its Long Term Refinancing Operation — LTRO).
Before the recent sharp spike in yields, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecast Spanish debt-to-GDP to hit 96% next year, up from 84% this year. This is some deterioration. The terrible equation of ‘debt dynamics’ for Spain’s economy consists of starting with the current debt-to-GDP ratio. You then add economic growth, the budget surplus or deficit and subtract the yield on 10-year bonds to work out whether the ratio is improving or deteriorating.

the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the sadly predictable consequences of
the government’s disparate treatment of Wall Street and Main Street
have only become worse. As the banks amass size and power, Main Street
continues to get pummeled.
Part of the current economic malaise can be traced directly to Treasury’s betrayal of its promise to use TARP to “preserve homeownership.” The Home Affordable Modification Program has brought little meaningful improvement, with fewer than 800,000 ongoing permanent modifications as of March 31, 2012, a number that is growing at the glacial pace of just 12,000 per month.
In June 2011, Treasury appeared to take a tentative step toward holding the mortgage servicers accountable for the widespread misconduct in the program by pledging to withhold the incentive payments to three of the largest banks — Wells Fargo (WFC) & Co., Bank of America Corp. (BAC) and JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) — until they came into compliance with HAMP’s rules.

First up, we had a nice pop this morning in the metals. Nothing of real consequence but it’s still better than a sharp drop. Again, no one should get overly excited or committal until after August gold option expiration on Thursday. Until then, we’ll likely fight a losing battle against the Forces of Darkness, centered around the 50-day moving average, near 1585.
Now that TTM is finally operating like a “normal” website, it appears that Gonzalo has a little more time on his hands. He has written an excellent piece on Spain where his current thinking is that they will be forced to exit the euro by September. Yikes! With the Spanish 10-year at 7.57%, he may be right.

“Global macro” has of late been relegated more of a backseat role,
with earnings and market “technicals” driving a largely upbeat
marketplace. Things might have changed today, with spiking Spanish bond
yields proving increasingly difficult to disregard. Spain’s 10-year
yields surged 26 bps Friday to 7.19%, increasing the rise for the week
to 61 bps. Perhaps more alarming, Spanish two-year sovereign yields
jumped 61 bps Friday and were up 134 bps for the week. At 5.62%,
two-year yields are almost back to panic spike highs from last November –
and are essentially at the highest level since 1997. Despite the EU’s
recently negotiated 100bn euro bailout, Spain’s borrowing costs have
moved only further into unsustainable territory. The Spanish stock
market was hit for 5.8% today. Things have reached the boiling point,
as mass public discontent with the latest round of austerity measures
recalls Greece’s unraveling.
And while the EU’s plan to finance a Spanish banking bailout has come together, the market takes no comfort. There is today little foreign interest in owning Spanish debt. Meanwhile, recent poor auction results indicate that domestic demand, chiefly from Spain’s troubled banks, has also meaningfully waned. Problematically, Spain has huge deficits and large debt maturities to finance going forward, as the scope of the holes in banking system and local government finances seemingly expands by the week. Between the sovereign, the banks and regional governments, the markets fear an unending and, in the end, unmanageable quantity of debt to refinance. Friday saw the cash-strapped Valencia region prepare to tap Spain’s newly created 18bn euro facility for bailing out the regions. The highly-leveraged and badly maladjusted Spanish economy has begun to buckle.

The highly-leveraged and badly maladjusted Spanish economy has begun to buckle.

“We have gotten a plateau, at a higher level, that we are going to see
of higher food costs. And, as you say, this is not a time where
consumers have that extra margin to easily absorb it.”
Coxe issued this warning regarding Europe: “The situation (in Europe) has gone from worse to truly awful in the last week. There was so much idiocy about (speculation) that Angela Merkel had been beaten up by them and that they had triumphed over the ‘Iron Lady.’
The only agreement that they really got was one that’s going to take months and months to implement, and only if all of these countries live up to their promises. There’s very little chance of that.
Right now, in Spain, which was one of the supposed victors in this, not only is the central government in trouble and Spanish bond yields have soared, but in addition you’ve got the various provinces going broke one after another. They are coming desperately, cap in hand, and it’s not clear who supplies it.

In the immediate wake of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster that
occurred in Japan last year, radioactive releases of epic proportions
flooded the waters of the Pacific Ocean, where they now flow adrift. And
even though more than a year has passed since the time of the first
releases, some scientists believe the worst is yet to come as these
water-borne radioactive plumes head for the U.S. West Coast.
Russia Today (RT) reports that a team of scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory recently constructed some models designed to assess the impact of Fukushima radiation over the longer term. To do this, they simulated ocean currents in the Pacific, and evaluated how radiation would both disperse and travel.
They discovered that, within the next few years, the worst of Fukushima’s radiation releases will make its way across the Pacific and hit the American coastline. So-called “packets” of radiation are also expected to continue forming as the larger plumes travel via the ocean currents, which could result in highly radioactive waves of ocean water striking West Coast beaches in the very near future.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and survivors of the Aurora, Colorado shooting as well as to their families and the brave first-responders.
Such a senseless tragedy leaves us all saddened and speechless for a brief moment…but then inevitably we find ourselves being drawn into the national debate over gun control. The timing of the shootings combined with the rabid media attention has seemingly diverted national attention from President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder’s Fast and Furious debacle as well as the upcoming United Nations Gun Treaty vote in two weeks–both of which are blatant attempts to restrict our God-given rights to bear arms.
Thomas Jefferson, himself a liberal in the truest sense of the definition, stated,“The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”

It is obvious today, after years of first-hand evidence, that money
supply and expectations for changes in the money supply–in other words,
dollar printing–impact asset prices and investing more than any other
factor.
On March 19th we penned End of Covert Dollar Printing Expected to Result in Stock SellOff, making the claim, in the midst of a field of green shoots and sprouts, that sentiment would begin to reflect reality as doubts over further printing became more prominent.
We will look at where we stand today, and the criteria for further printing at this point.
Tyler Durden, our anonymous friend, provides the chart below. We note that the bottom pane (the blue bars) illustrate average trade size. What we can observe (bottom green circle) is that those with the capability of larger trades sizes, executed at the highs. We alerted our readers of the erroneous excess in sentiment, and therefore an opportunity to reposition from stocks at the highs, into savings, rather than an investing-mode as the storm approaches. A stance we maintain.

By the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the new debt
accumulated in this fiscal year by the federal government had already
exceeded $1 trillion, making this fiscal year the fifth straight in
which the federal government has increased its debt by more than a
trillion dollars, according to official debt numbers published by the U.S. Treasury.
Prior to fiscal 2008, the federal government had never increased its debt by as much as $1 trillion in a single fiscal year. From fiscal 2008 onward, however, the federal government has increased its debt by at least $1 trillion each and every fiscal year.
The federal fiscal year begins on Oct. 1 and ends on Sept. 30. At the close of business on Sept. 30, 2011—the last day of fiscal 2011—the total debt of the federal government was $14,790,340,328,557.15. By June 29, the last business day of the third quarter of fiscal 2012, that debt had grown to $15,856,367,214,324.44—an increase for this fiscal year of $1,066,026,885,767.29.

I’m in Shanghai as I type, and the “China Miracle” is in full bloom.
Few variables are more important in the world of metals and mining
investment than the strength and sustainability of the extraordinary
bull run the Chinese economy has enjoyed for years. So many pundits,
critics, and cheerleaders keep pouring out opinions on this question
that they saturate the news – but leaves no one the wiser.
I’m sorry to say that, as arrogant as I am, I do not have quite the hubris to tell you that I have figured China out and know what is and will be. Certainty is not an option here, and if anyone offers it to you, I suggest you check your wallet afterward.
But I can tell you that I’ve traversed China from south to north, from east to west. I’ve spent days driving through the countryside, passed through China’s largest cities and smallest villages. I have seen a China that is visibly, radically different than the China I saw for the first time a mere six years ago. Ten percent growth compounded over six years is a 177% difference – and the reality behind such numbers is unmistakable. Yes, there is still great poverty here and a lot of people living on a subsistence basis, but this is not a poor country. The fraction that has been lifted to middle class and above is enormous, and the country’s GDP is now the second largest in the world.

Today John Embry stunned King World News when he warned, “We are moving toward a fundamental shortage of gold, and I believe it may start as soon as next month.” Embry also cautioned, “The problem now is that the global economy is contracting at a time when the debt levels are catastrophically high.”
Embry, who is Chief Investment Strategist of the $10 billion strong Sprott Asset Management, also discussed Europe, but first, here is what Embry had to say about the drought and inflation: “I am very concerned about this drought that is happening, particularly in the United States. You look at a weather map in the Midwestern United States, the temperatures are just staggeringly hot and there’s no moisture.
Already the corn crop has been reduced dramatically. Aside from the fact that it will have a big impact down the road in the economy, because food prices will move up sharply, on a basic level this is the difference between starvation and survival for people in certain parts of the world.”

The
sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old
parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a a sunbeam, in
the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself;
and can never be erased or obscured by mortal power. — Alexander Hamilton

Recently Time Magazine published a cover story depicting the U.S.
Constitution passing through a paper shredder with the headlines “Does
It Still Matter?”
The article portrays the Constitution as an outmoded document that we should ignore to whatever extent is expedient to pursue someone’s vision of a better society. There is little doubt that America is in a constitutional crisis.
Once upon a time in the United States, Americans held firm to the belief that the Constitution was the supreme law of the land. We believed that our elected officials swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
We believed that our sworn law enforcement officers were “public servants” who also took that same oath and were totally committed to protecting the lives and property of the people they served.
In today’s America, many of our elected officials (both Republicans and Democrats alike), seem to have forgotten that oath and have become indifferent to the constitutionality of their legislation.

As regular readers know, one of the first things learned by beginning
economics students is that monopolies and oligopolies are unmitigated
evils in any free-market economy . They are (by definition)
non-competitive and totally parasitic; and in the rare
instances when one of these abominations is perceived to be a necessary
evil, that inherently parasitic nature demands that they be securely
restrained in a regulatory straitjacket.
Sadly, this appears to also be one of the first lessons forgotten by economics graduates, apparently moments after accepting their degrees. For what do we see in the global economy today? A world which is not only saturated with these mega-monstrosities, but where much, most, and in some cases all regulation has simply been put through a paper-shredder – and all with the complete blessing of the intellectual zombies in the economics community.
After a quarter-century of allowing these corporate oligopolies to rampage out of control, the carnage is plain to see. The worst revenue-crisis in the history of Western democracy threatens to bankrupt most if not all of these economies. Our tax-base continues to wither and die. We see on the one hand Big Business and the ultra-wealthy refusing to be taxed (while parasitically enriching themselves at the fastest rate in history). Meanwhile everyone else simply has nothing left to tax.

from End of the American Dream:
In one of the most shocking articles that the New York Times has ever
put out, a New York Times reporter has openly admitted that virtually
every major mainstream news organization allows government bureaucrats
and campaign officials to censor their stories. For example, almost
every major news organization in the country has agreed to submit
virtually all quotes from anyone involved in the Obama campaign or the
Romney campaign to gatekeepers for “quote approval” before they will be
published. If the gatekeeper in the Obama campaign does not want a
certain quote to get out, the American people will not see it, and the
same thing applies to the Romney campaign. The goal is to keep the
campaigns as “on message” as possible and to avoid gaffes at all cost.
But this kind of thing is not just happening with political campaigns.
According to the New York Times, “quote approval” has become
“commonplace throughout Washington”. In other words, if you see a quote
in the newspaper from someone in the federal government then it is safe
to say that a gatekeeper has almost certainly reviewed that quote and
has approved it. This is another sign that “the free and independent
media” in this country is a joke. What we get from the mainstream media
is a very highly filtered form of propaganda, and that is one reason
why Americans are turning away from the mainstream media in droves.
People want the truth, and more Americans than ever realize that they
are not getting it from the mainstream media.

Where have we seen this before? Bond yields soar above the 7 percent
danger level. Check. The stock market crashes to new lows. Check.
Industrial activity plummets like a rock and the economy contracts.
Check. The unemployment rate skyrockets to more than 20 percent.
Check. The bursting of a massive real estate bubble pushes the banking
system to the brink of implosion. Check. Broke local governments beg
the broke national government for bailouts. Check. The international
community pressures the national government to implement deep austerity
measures which will slow down the economy even more and hordes of
violent protesters take to the streets. Check. All of this happened in
Greece, it is happening right now in Spain, and mark my words it will
eventually happen in the United States. Every debt bubble eventually
bursts, and right now Spain is experiencing a level of economic pain
that very, very few people saw coming. The recession in Spain is
rapidly becoming a full-blown economic depression, and at this point
there is no hope and no light at the end of the tunnel.
