The Baltic Dry Index declines again. Smart money is continually leaving the stock market. Deutsche Bank says the global economy has a 55% chance collapsing in a recession.

"We expressed our serious concerns over recent and ongoing developments, which have eroded trust and confidence, increased tensions and which may have the potential to undermine peace, security and stability in the South China Sea."

The Global Economy Almost Collapsed Twice in Last 18 Years – That’s Why You Buy Gold

by Samuel Bryan, Schiff Gold:
Last week, James Rickards explained to CNBC why he is a long-term holder of gold bullion. He pointed to the pattern of financial collapses that threatened the global economy over the past two decades.
In the late ‘90s, Wall Street bailed out a hedge fund. In 2008, the Federal Reserve bailed out Wall Street. But in 2018, it’s the central banks that will need a bailout. And what will happen to the dollar when the Fed loses international credibility?

Your Future...(hint...You probably won't be able to)...Think the Government will take care of you? Your Delusional...

How Will You Cope With A Lower Standard Of Living?

The forces are mounting that will eventually overwhelm most Americans and send their standard of living to unknown depths. Americans that have only known the post WWII prosperity are ill equipped and educated to deal with depression level living. Easy credit and instant gratification have created a nation of whining, self absorbed, entitlement minded people with no moral or mental toughness.

Banking Crisis: Belgium-Based OPTIMA Bank Has Failed; Banco Popular Needs “Urgent Cash Injection”

from SuperStation95:
Belgium-based Optima Bank has FAILED and been shut down by both the National Bank of Belgium (which also acts as the Belgian regulating body) as well as the European Central Bank (ECB). According to the national supervisor, the bank would have been unable to meet its commitments to its clients and was forced to cease all banking activities after some potentially fraudulent transaction were unveiled.
It’s surprising to see the main media have tried to keep this silent as even the website of the National Bank of Belgium didn’t bother to issue the press release in English (whereas all other press releases on the home page can be read in English). There’s also (curiously) no statement from the ECB either, nor has this news been translated on the English version of website of the state-owned national television station.

Homeland Security is the biggest Threat to American Citizens... I wonder if they will issue a Terrorism Advisory Alert about Themselves...

Homeland Security Issues Terrorism Advisory Alert

Just days after the State Department issued a travel alert for European visitors (due to the threat of terrorism), it appears the Orlando massacre has pushed The Department of Homeland Security to do the same domestically. For the next five months, DHS warns "we are particularly concerned about homegrown violent extremists who could strike with little or no notice," adding that "increased public vigilance and awareness continue to be of utmost importance."

Gundlach On The Fed Fiasco: "Yellen Sounds Like She Doesn't Have Confidence Anymore"

"Yellen sounds like she doesn't have confidence anymore. She is backing away from any forecast. She is simply saying, 'I really don’t want to forecast anymore.' We are done with this forecasting game. The subtext is that 'we've been so wrong forecasting the data, we should stop'."

 

The Push For Disarmament Begins: “The Globalists Are Waiting in the Wings To Take Down America And Confiscate Firearms”

by Jeremiah Johnson, SHTF Plan:
The headlines and news networks are awash with the shooting that occurred on Sunday in Florida – 50 dead and 53 hospitalized in the largest single mass-shooting incident in the history of the U.S. History in the making, and as Rahm Emmanuel put it, never let a crisis go to waste. The governor of Florida quickly declared a state of emergency, and as the FBI is labeling it as a “terrorist incident,” undoubtedly the federal presence is going to increase.
All of the machinery is in place and has been in place for quite some time, now. The harbinger of things to come was already outlined by Obama, on January 14, 2014 in a White House Press Conference:
“…we are not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we’re providing Americans the kind of help they need. I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone, and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward…”
-Barack Hussein Obama I

New Orlando Shooter Eyewitness Emerges: Testifies That 5 People Were Involved In Pulse Attack

"... the shooter made mention that he was the 'fourth shooter' and that there were 'three others'... 'snipers', along with a 'female suicide bomber' that was playing dead..."

Hacker Who Breached Democratic National Committee Server Posts Confidential Trump, Hillary Files

"Guccifer may have been the first one who penetrated Hillary Clinton’s and other Democrats’ mail servers. But he certainly wasn’t the last. No wonder any other hacker could easily get access to the DNC’s servers. Here are just a few docs from many thousands I extracted when hacking into DNC’s network."

“Islamic Refugee” With Gas Pipeline Plans Arrested In New Mexico Border County

Police in a U.S. town bordering Mexico have apprehended an undocumented, Middle Eastern woman in possession of the region’s gas pipeline plans, law enforcement sources tell Judicial Watch. Authorities describe the woman as an “Islamic refugee” pulled over during a traffic stop by a deputy sheriff in Luna County, New Mexico which shares a 54-mile border with Mexico.

Currency-nado: Yen, Yuan Surge; Gold Tops $1300; Bitcoin Spikes To 28-Month Highs

The US Dollar continues to slide (after bouncing off Fed statement plunge lows), as it appears a rush to other 'currencies' is under way. USDJPY is plumbing new depths beyond Oct 2014's lows (before the end of QE3 and start of QQE2), offshore Yuan is rallying (back below 6.60), gold just hit $1300 (pushing May highs back to Jan 2015 highs), and finally Bitcoin is spiking as China opens once more (now above $700), its highest since Feb 2014. Japanese bonds are at new record low yields (and Treasuries are pushing lower with 10Y at 1.55% near Feb's flash-crash lows).

What The First 100 Days After Brexit Would Look Like

Before dawn on June 24, if an exit vote becomes clear, the EU’s top brass from Berlin to Brussels will be forced into damage control. In echoes of the Greek debt crisis, euro-area finance ministers may hold an emergency meeting as soon as that evening. Wild swings in the pound, more aggressive interventions by the Swiss National Bank and a ratcheting up of global instability rank as likely market reactions.

The Push For Disarmament Begins

In between using taxpayer dollars to campaign for Hillary Clinton and vacationing at Martha’s Vineyard, Obama has “resurrected” the push for gun control. This latest incident will give him the juice to proceed with an executive order.  We knew that it was inevitable: a pretext would be created to provide “justification” for either some form of gun registration (this always leads to gun confiscation) or the emplacement of martial law.  Remember, the UN and the globalists are just waiting in the wings for the ability to take down the United States and confiscate the firearms.

The Trajectory of Venezuelan Hyperinflation Looks Frighteningly Familiar...

Extreme shortages of food and power continue to ravage the country of Venezuela, and ordinary people have been paying the price. With triple-digit inflation, that “price” is expected to continue to soar even higher. Even scarier is the estimated pace of acceleration – by 2017, the IMF expects Venezuelan hyperinflation to climb to a whopping 1,642%. Our brains have trouble computing numbers of this magnitude, so we created today’s infographic to put things in perspective.

USDA: People Make The Choice To Eat Unhealthy Food

"...results suggest that improving access to healthful foods by itself will likely not have a major impact on consumer diets or generate major reductions in diet-related disease." Or, you can lead a [low income] horse to water, but they'll still drink Cherry Coke.

Forget Complex Hacking, Companies Have Lost $3 Billion Falling For A Simple Email Scheme

It turns out that hackers don't need to break into SWIFT transactions at big banks or even the Federal Reserve in order to get funds wired to their accounts. Cyber criminals just need to create fake email accounts and send an email to the right employee at a business and accomplish the same result with a lot less effort.

This Demographic Shift Makes Our Social Security Useless

The Obama administration was so convinced that the economy would fully recover on its own, it didn’t pay attention to the issue. This ignorance was a major mistake because demographics have fundamentally altered the dynamics of economic growth.

What Is Behind The Record Sale Of $75 Billion In US Treasuries By "Foreign" Holders

According to the latest TIC data, in April foreigners sold a record $74.6 billion of Treasurys. Only, a deeper look inside the data reveals that it wasn't really "foreigners", and they didn't really "sell."

"Allah Knows Best" - Child Sex Grooming, Prison Brainwashing, & A Month Of Islam In Britain

"A Muslim man with way too many extremist links to be entirely coincidental is now the Mayor of London. ... In a couple more decades Britain may well have its first Muslim Prime Minister. ... Reality cannot argue with demographics, so the realistic future for Britain is Islamic." - Paul Weston, British politician.

DHS Secretary Sees All Americans As a Threat: “Gun Control Has To Be a Part of Homeland Security”

by Mac Slavo, SHTFPlan:

The agency’s source of power has always been fear.
And now is the time to capitalize upon it.
Homeland Security chief Jeh Johnson has seized upon the Orlando shooting and is… rather predictably… using the specter of terrorism as a pretext for instituting gun control on a wider scale. (Of course, he isn’t alone.)
Secretary Johnson told CBS News that:

Mr. President, You Disgust Me

by Wayne Root, Investment Watch Blog:
I’ve known for eight long years what a poor excuse for a man we have as a President. I’ve known for eight long years what a deep dark hole he is leading this country down. I’ve known for eight long years that he is either mentally unstable, incredibly ignorant, or an extreme Muslim sympathizer like we’ve never seen in the White House.
I hope other Americans are waking up after today’s pathetic Presidential address to the nation about the Orlando Islamic terror attack.
It’s time to talk frankly. Obama’s speech was the most insulting, revolting & embarrassing speech EVER by an American president. It made me sick to my stomach.
Obama is the commander-in-chief. He certainly knows far more than an average citizen like me…certainly far more than the journalists on Fox News or CNN.
