'Dilbert' Creator Sees Trump Landslide, Warns Clinton Scaremongery "Gives Citizens Moral Permission To Kill Trump"

"This past week we saw Clinton pair the idea of President Trump with nuclear disaster, racism, Hitler, the Holocaust, and whatever else makes you tremble in fear... the new approach is likely to trigger a race war in the US... and once you define Trump as Hitler, you also give citizens moral permission to kill him... and anyone who actively supports a genocidal dictator..."

UK PM Cameron Goes M.A.D. As Brexit Odds Hit Record High

"We're not scaremongering.... [but] Brexit would put a bomb under our economy, and the worst thing is, we'd have lit the fuse ourselves."

Theranos: Unicorn Valley's Madoff Moment

In “The Valley” the last 7 or 8 years has seen a morphing of true business fundamentals into a place of pure financially adulterated fantasy. Here is where the story changed from “Something built that customers love and will pay for," into “Build something that can give the illusion VC’s want to see and hear so they can pay for the right to then sell that illusion to Wall Street and we all get rich.” True business metrics or morals be damned.

Hillary Faces 10 Years in Prison if Her Email Server Was Hacked

by Michael Depinto, Freedom OutPost:
A recent Gallup Poll shows that more than half of Democrats would still support Hillary if she were indicted.
In an exclusive jailhouse interview, now infamous hacker Guccifer, claims to have personally hacked Hillary Clinton’s email on multiple occasions, which if proven by FBI investigators could spell 10-15 years in prison under the espionage act. During the interview, Guccifer also gives the FBI a trail of breadcrumbs on how to find the other hackers he says had already breached her system prior to him, and left traces of their breaches. According Fox News’ Andrew Napolitano, Hillary is in much, much, much bigger trouble than she is eluding to in public.
Thankfully, I have a solution to the whole problem. Give her the electric chair… and make sure she’s good and wet when they plug it in… Back where you belong demon!

9/11′s Conspiracy Trio Falling Apart

by Wayne Madsen, Global Research:
The three conspirators—American neocons, Saudi Arabia, and Israel—that successfully pulled off the crime of the 21st century, namely the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States, are infighting to the point that the layers of secrecy surrounding the 9/11 attacks are beginning to wither away.
The weakest link in the troika of conspirators is Saudi Arabia, the country that provided the manpower, finances, and hijacker personnel for the cover story—”Al Qaeda did it”—for 9/11. Stung by U.S. congressional moves to allow families of 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia and calls for the Obama administration to release 28 classified pages in the joint Congressional Inquiry on 9/11 intelligence failures to the public, the Saudi government is now pushing the story that the U.S. government was responsible for carrying out the 9/11 attack.

ISIS Burns Alive 19 Women For Refusing Sex; Executes Dozens Of Its Own Fighters In Spy Purge

As the noose continues to tighten against the Islamic State, now that a military campaign has been launched against its capital Raqqa, ISIS has reportedly taken its gruesome acts to new highs. Following reports that ISIS is now capitalizing on the sex trade by selling sex slaves on FaceBook to refill its rapidly dwindling coffers, the Kurdish ARA News agency reports that ISIS publicly executed 19 Kurdish women of the Yezidi minority, who were burned alive in iron cages. Their crime: “they were punished for refusing to have sex with IS militants,” local media activist Abdullah al-Malla told ARA News.

Paris Becomes Massive Camp For Illegal Migrants

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo has announced plans to build a "humanitarian camp" next to one of the busiest train stations in the city, so that thousands of illegal migrants bound for Britain can "live with dignity." Hidalgo, who has often sparred with French President François Hollande for his refusal to accept more migrants, says her plan to help illegal migrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East is a "duty of humanism." The National Front party has accused her of putting the concerns of migrants ahead of those of French citizens, as part of a cynical political ploy aimed at positioning herself to the left of the current president.

Fed Sees Labor Market Deteriorating At Fastest Pace In 7 Years

Last month's major divergence between payrolls and The Fed Labor Market Conditions Index (LMCI) has closed somewhat with the collapse in jobs on Friday. However, as this morning's LMCI print at -4.8 indicates, labor market conditions in the US are deteriorating at their fastest pace in 7 years.

Pure Coincidence? Massive McKinsey-Managed Hedge Fund Has Made Money In 24 Out Of 25 Years

Consider: an influential consulting firm that advises some of the world's largest companies on strategic questions such as M&A and restructuring has an internal investment arm with $9.5 billion in assets that hasn't lost money more than once in 25 years.

Dow, S&P Erase Entire Payrolls Plunge

Now what?

The Keynesians Stole The Jobs

"What we are seeing is an epic failure of the Keynesians who have tricked so many people into believing that economic interventionism can create a perfect economy. They have mismanaged the economy and I am afraid the worst is yet to come."

Don't Expect Much From Yellen's Speech Today

Anyone hoping for some clarity on the Fed's next steps from Yellen's speech later today, don't hold your breath. If anything, Yellen will do more of the same, which as BofA summarizes, is the following: "It is fair to say that many clients are a bit confused and frustrated with Fed communication. The Fed seems to be constantly changing its focus from one meeting to the next. They seem to regularly promise hikes, only to back off at the last second."

Fill In The Blank: Fed's Lockhart Says "Policy Continues To Stimulate The ..........."

Economy... or Market?

Is The Market Rational After All?

This is the market we have now: dominated by delusional, irrational central planners with unlimited powers to create money out of thin air to fund their manipulations. Until the central planning madness destroys markets' ability to discover price and allocate capital. Then you end up with Venezuela: a failed state and a broken economy that can no longer feed its people despite the nation's vast oil wealth.

Key Events In The Coming Week

After last week's global data deluge which culminated with the worst US jobs reported in 6 years, looking at this week’s calendar we get the usual post-payrolls data lull, punctuated by Yellen's speech today which will be the last scheduled Fed statement before the June FOMC.

Goldman Sachs Gets A Quarter Million Summer Job Applicants

Goldman Sachs attracted more than a quarter of a million applications from students and graduates for jobs this summer, "suggesting fears of a ‘brain drain’ in the sector may be exaggerated as banks introduce more employee-friendly policies." The number of applications from students and graduates globally have risen more than 40% since 2012, the paper adds. This means there is greater demand to get a job at Goldman than there is even in China where recently 1.2 million job candidates applied for 19,000 much-desired govermment positions.

Anti-Establishment Revulsion Hits Italy As 5-Star Candidate Takes Lead In Rome Mayoral Election

The anti-establishment euroskeptic 5-Star Movement candidate won the largest share of the votes in the first round of its mayoral election. Virginia Raggi, a 37-year old lawyer running as the upstart euroskeptic 5-Star Movement won 35.6% of the vote cast Sunday in Rome, while Roberto Giachetti, the candidate for Renzi's Democratic party received just 24.7%. The two candidates will face a runoff on June 19

Futures Flat Following Friday's Jobs Fiasco: All Eyes On Yellen Again

Every ugly jobs report has a silver lining, and sure enough following Friday's disastrous jobs report, global mining and energy companies rallied alongside commodities after the jobs data crushed speculation the Fed would raise interest rates this month.  “The disappointing U.S. jobs report on Friday means that a summer Fed rate hike is off the table,” said Jens Pedersen, a commodities analyst at Danske Bank. “That has reversed the upwards trend in the dollar, supporting commodities on a broader basis. The market will look for confirmation in Yellen’s speech later today.”

A Cuban Missile Crisis Event Is Brewing In the South China Sea

by Dave Hodges, The Common Sense Show:
During the Cuban Missile Crisis, surveillance photographs demonstrated that the Russians were embedding nuclear weapons into Cuba, thus reducing American response time from 27 minutes to 3 minutes.
President Kennedy responded by blockading Cuba and Russia backed down and World War III was averted.
Presently, in the South China Sea, China is preparing to limit access to the South China Sea and use their military to achieve this aim.
China’s actions clearly threaten the viability of the Trans Pacific Partnership and the present form of the American government. In fact warmonger, Senator John McCain, is calling for more US troops to be sent to the South China Sea which will clearly push the present situation to a crisis point.
Adding fuel to McCain’s fire, comes from Secretary of State John Kerry as he stated:
China said last month that frequent US Navy patrols in the South China Sea were forcing Beijing to boost its defense capabilities in the area. This month, Kerry warned China to not increase their surveillance and air capabilities in the South China Sea.

On Forests and Trees

by Dr. Jerome, TF Metals Report:
I am afraid I don’t have much to say about gold & silver lately. Prices seem stagnant again. This is where the 2x & 3x ETFs will nibble away at your position. I have been sitting out any trading for a few weeks now. Gold finding support again here at $1208 and silver at $16. My charts show these as solid support levels AND the AU 62% fib retracement levels and 50% level in silver. Chart painting? Fundamentals? I’d sure wait for some distinct movement one way or the other before trading.
(Disclaimer: past performance is indicative of future returns with Dr. J’s trading advice–you will not make any fiat to brag about.)
And if you just stack. Now is a good tome to keep stacking
The unemployment report will be released in about 20 minutes. The news correspondent, reading her script, expects it to come in at 5%. OK, whatever. Stock algos will react. gold algos will react–just the way they are all planned to react within the data-driven mechanisms that pass for our market. Since the FED rate decision mak hang on this data point, I expect it will be spun as “good news.”
Edit: Whoa! a big jobs miss… Gold up? Futures down? Is this a reality check? we’ll see if they can put out their fires by the end of the session…

Insider Reveals: The Secret Investment Meetings Of The Wealthiest People On The Planet: “A Huge Fortune To Be Made In The Trump Trade”

by Mac Slavo, SHTFPlan:
As the global economy deteriorates and uncertainty in the future becomes the prevailing sentiment, investment insider Marin Katusa of Katusa Research reveals in an interview with SGT Report that the the wealthiest people in the world have lost faith in not only their respective governments and central banks, but financial institutions and major investment fund managers who appear to be just as confused about how to position their assets as everyone else. Further complicating matters is a heated political season that has seen the rise of a candidate who, while despised by the establishment, could potentially shift the entire global paradigm should he be elected to the highest office in the United States.
It is within this context that Katusa explains how high net worth individuals are holding secret meetings in an effort to position themselves before the election by identifying what Katusa calls “The Trump Trade.” Anticipating sweeping changes to America’s energy policy and trade relationships, Katusa notes that some very influential people, though operating behind the scenes, are actively taking steps to protect their wealth and profit handsomely should Trump, or Hillary for that matter, become President.
