Putin & The Failure Of Washington's Propagandist Predictions
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 22:30 The American presstitutes are captives of their own propaganda and are now surprised at the failure of their propagandistic predictions. Having stripped the Islamic State of offensive capability and liberated Syria from the Washington-supported terrorists, Putin has now shifted to diplomacy. If peace fails in Syria, the failure cannot be blamed on Russia.
For anyone who has money in the bank today, it is virtually guaranteed
that in the next 5-7 years either the bank will be gone or the money
will be worthless, or probably both.Governments and Central Banks are now supreme experts in the total destruction of your money.

Silver Soars Post-Fed As Gold Ratio Tumbles Most In 5 Months

A First-Hand Account Of What's Really Happening In Subprime Auto
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 21:41 "On March 1st I came into the office to find out that they had started the layoffs. These people were fairly new and were in departments that the executive staff has now deemed unnecessary. I worked in subprime auto during the Financial Crisis and it feels much worse right now than it did there in 2007 or 2008."
Central Bankers' Embarrassment Of Stitches
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 21:30 Had central bankers simply taken to heart that well known idiom that cautions "a stitch in time saves nine" early on, they would not now be so frantically stitching such a gaping gash in the world economy. One thing is for certain. All of this quantitative pleasing has done little to lift the spirits of the world’s worker bees.Presidents: Selected By Blood and Banksters
by James Hall, Silver Doctors:
Author A.J. Jacobs and a team of researchers with genealogy web sites
myheritage.com and geni.com have recently developed a family tree
showing that Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are distant cousins. They
share royal blood that runs deep in their family lines.
In the previous essay, The CIA’s Presidents, the influence of the intelligence community in directing and controlling the office of the presidency is presented. But before the clandestine spooks developed their sway on policy and intrigue, the absolute power behind the throne, crowned their lineage selection with the full mashaḥ anointing from the Bankster tribe. The masses are not part of this universe. Their role is to bow down to the chief executive that has been picked for them to obey. The actual person is less important than keeping the line of authority in the family.

Why The Fed Is Paralyzed - Its Economic Model Is Junk
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 20:30 If there is any doubt as to the confusion inside the FOMC, one needs only to examine its models. The latest updated projections make a full mockery of both monetary policy and the theory that guides it. Ferbus and the rest don’t buy the labor market story, either, which is why the Fed can only be hesitant at best about “normalization.” Coming from the (neo or not) Keynesian persuasion, what is showing up should never happen.Fed 'Downgrade' Sends Stocks To Largest Quarterly Comeback...Ever

"Is This Who We Want" - Hillary Strikes Back With Attack Ad Mocking Trump

What Happened Yesterday: Either Something Spooked The Fed Or There Is A "Central Bank Accord"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 20:20 The FOMC used to say that a hike would be “good news” because it represented great confidence that economic conditions were so good. Now the Fed wants us to believe that their dovish stance is good news as well, because it means greater levels of accommodations. It is a stretch to believe that both can be true. Financial intermediation between savers and investors has hints of trouble due to negative rates. A news story yesterday said that Munich Re is experimenting with storing cash and gold. The time has come to end NIRP and ZIRP, and other forms of aggressive central bank experimentation and the dangerous consequences that come with them. It time they take a giant collective BURP, I mean BIRP (Basic Interest Rate Policy).
Our Economic Growth System Is Reaching Its Limits In A Strange Way
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 19:30 Growth now is slowing because of all of the entropy issues involved. People in China cannot stand any more pollution. Too many laborers in developed countries are being marginalized by globalization and by competition with ever more intelligent machines that can replace much of the function of humans. None of this would be a problem, except that we have a huge amount of debt that needs to be repaid with interest, and we need commodity prices to rise high enough to encourage production. If these problems are not fixed, the whole system will collapse, even though there seems to be a surplus of energy products.Meet The People Behind The Death Of Canada's Oil Patch

"Fear" Indicator Surges To Record High
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 18:30 When it comes to the "here and now", which in the Fed's centrally-planned market is driven almost excusively by momentum ignition algos, complacency indeed rules (VIX 13). But even the merest glimpse into the near future, or rather how the present environment may disconnect with what may happen tomorrow, or next week, or, as the case may be, in three months, institutional investors are more concerned than ever before. But is this a confirmation that the US stock market is about to have a new "Deutsche Bank" moment?
"It's All F**ked": Brazil Descends Into Chaos As Rousseff, Lula Wiretaps Trigger Mass Protests
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 18:21 On Wednesday evening, it all fell apart in Brazil when the judge spearheading government corruption probes released wiretaps which seem to prove that Dilma Rousseff indeed appointed former President Lula to chief of staff in order to shield him from prosecution. When the tapes were released, Congress broke into a shouting match and Brazilians poured into the streets in 17 of 26 states calling for an overthrow of the government.
Is This The Rationale Behind Russia's Withdrawal From Syria?
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 18:00 The timing of the Russian withdrawal could not be more fortuitous, as it occurs at the very pinnacle of the European refugee crisis, a crisis that was caused by Europe’s backing of the Saudi-Turkish attempt to overthrow Assad. Is Russia gambling on receiving some modicum of European gratitude for helping to stem the flight of refugees to its borders, with the pay-off in terms of easing sanction and enabling its long stalled pipeline projects to be completed.
Catalonia Said To Blackmail Spain On Overdue Bank Loans
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 17:39 Spain and Catalonia are locked in a hilarious staring contest over the latter's unpaid bank debt which Barcelona has essentially demanded that Madrid pay. If Spain says no, Catalonia may well just default, a move that would send yields on SPGB's through the roof. Of course if Spain does pay, Madrid is effectively subsidizing Barcelona's independence bid.
JPM Announces $1.9 Billion Buyback One Month After CEO Jamie Dimon Buys 500,000 Shares In The Open Market
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/17/2016 - 17:38 On February 12, Jamie Dimon made headlines when he bought 500,000 shares, or some $26 million worth of JPM stock which coming one day after the market hit its lowest point in the recent selloff, has become known as the "Dimon Bottom." Was it just good timing or was there something more to the purchase some wondered. As it turns out the purchase may have been nothing more than Jamie frontrunning his own company's multi-billion buyback, because as JPM announced moments ago, the company of which he is a CEO, just authorized the repurchase of an additional $1.9 billion in stock over the next three months, thereby assuring CEO Jamie of an even great profits on his recent acquisition.

Five Reasons A Trump Presidency Would Be Good For Gold

As populations grow into cities across the globe, and increasing majority of people will live in urban areas – places which quickly become very desperate and vulnerable during a major crisis.
Every prepper knows the dangers of being stuck in a major metropolitan city in the event of a major hurricane, a grid down scenario or civil unrest and societal collapse.
In such a situation, as every prepper knows, food, water and other vital resourceswill quickly become scarce or unavailable. The gridlock of survivors trying to get out, or get their hands on assets.
Increasingly, the Pentagon is looking at the likelihood – perhaps the inevitability – of war/conflict inside of a destabilized or decimated megacity urban center like New York.

I want to start this analysis by stating that I fully understand the whirlwind of public interest in Donald Trump’s campaign. However, for those that don’t get it, let me break it down for you.
A sizable portion of the American population considers themselves “conservative.” More than 38% of U.S. citizens, according to Gallup, hold conservative political and social views. Only 24% of the public considers themselves “liberal.” Now, I realize that the term “conservative” means different things to different people, so I would apply a simple rule to categorize them — a conservative is easiest to identify by his or her distaste for normally liberal ideological views. Beyond that, different factions of conservatives disagree on a whole host of issues.

This is an interesting piece that came up this morning:
Political parties, not voters, choose their presidential nominees, a Republican convention rules member told CNBC, a day after GOP front-runner Donald Trump rolled up more big primary victories.
“The media has created the perception that the voters choose the nomination. That’s the conflict here,” Curly Haugland, an unbound GOP delegate from North Dakota, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Wednesday. He even questioned why primaries and caucuses are held.

As a rule I try not to comment all that much on politics because it is
such a polarizing topic. No matter what I could say one way or the
other, “politics” will turn some normally placid folks into rabid
trolls. That said, what we are witnessing now has never happened before
in our lifetimes and is not even about the candidates …it is about the
survival of our Republic!
Immediately after turning on the business news this morning, I heard an interview of a Republican National Committee member talking about “rules”. I did not catch who it was but the essence of the interview was it did not matter who had the most votes or delegates …the Republican committee would choose “their candidate” if no one had the majority leading into the convention. He was questioned with “so the will of the people doesn’t matter”?
