US Government Releases Redacted "28 Pages" Missing From 9/11 Report



Unleash the revisionist history... The missing 28 pages from the 9/11 report begins... "While in the United States, some of the September 11 hijackers were in contact with, and received support from, individuals who may be connected to the Saudi Government..."
 

Weekend Reading: If I Was Janet Yellen

Unfortunately, for Janet, this is the 'trap'. The liquidity will dry up, the inventory restocking cycle will end, and the next “crisis” will be on the horizon with Ms. Yellen remaining stuck near the “zero bound.”  The past opportunities to “normalize” interest rate policy have come and gone. This opportunity will likely pass also and, as always, the Fed will realize far too late they are trapped. But by then, it won’t matter much to investors, or what’s left of them, anyway.

These Are The 10 Corporate Bond With The Most Negative Yields In The World

We may soon see the unprecedented paradox where a German, French or Dutch corporate is trading with a negative yield, even as the matched-maturity sovereign bond is trading with a less negative yield, or is outright positive now that the ECB has shown it is more willing to accept negative corporate bond yields than bund yields.
 

Dramatic Footage Shows Moment Police Killed Nice, France Truck Terrorist



Moments ago, AP released footage of French terrorist Bohlel's final moments as he engaged the police. This is what the Tunisian's last shootout looked like just around 11pm local time.

obama To Discuss The Nice Massacre (Without Saying 'Radical Islam') - Live Feed

Perhaps in an effort to appear 'tougher' than Clinton did last night - in the face of Republican bluster and rage - President Obama feels the need to address the nation with regard the massacre in the south of France. For those playing at home, we suggest listening closely for the words "immigration", "radicalized", and "guns" as the divider-in-chief explains how winning the war on terror is making blowback like this increasingly likely... for everyone. But do not fear, the government will protect us (if we just hand over our guns).

How To Legally Steal $35,000 From Vladimir Putin

The Russian currency is still far below its historic average; aside from making the country dirt cheap for anyone with foreign currency, we discovered something very interesting today... Some of Russia’s coins are now worth less than their metal values.

The Real Endgame For Italian Banks



The new head of UniCredit, Italy’s biggest bank, has implored the EU to take a more lenient stance on rescuing the country’s troubled banking sector, as The FT reports Mustier urges Brussels should look to a controversial 2004 French government rescue of Alstom as a model. The 13% surge in Italian bank stocks this week - the most since 2011 - offers a further hint that, as Bloomberg's Mark Cudmore explains, there’s only one viable outcome to the fiasco with Italian banks, and it will ultimately be a positive catalyst for global risk assets even if negative for the euro.

The Fuel That May Halt The Electric Car Revolution



Electric cars are often touted as the nail in the coffin for gasoline-powered vehicles. However, there’s another fuel revolution in the developing world, which is changing the economics of electric cars. Whether it’s CNG, LNG, autogas, or propane, gaseous-hydrocarbon fuels turn conventional cars into dual-fuel vehicles, and limit the uptake of electric cars in these economies.

US Oil Rig Count Rises At Fastest Pace Since Dec 2011



The US oil rig count rose 6 to 357 this week - this is 6th rise of the last 7 weeks (up 41 rigs) - the biggest absolute rise since May 2014. Off the lows, the US oil rig count is now up over 10% - the most since Dec 2011. Of course, oil prices are rallying on this news...

When Energy Loans Go Bad: Why America's Largest Bank Is Sliding



Wells' long overdue admission that it is woefully under-reserved for what may be a deluge of loan defaults should oil fail to rebound strongly... and certainly if oil continues to decline, has finally arrived in the form of this chart showing its LTM loan loss provision expense. It is, in a word, soaring.

This Is What "Something Big" Looks Like In This Market



As the chart below shows, those who covered their USDJPY shorts lucked out; better yet anyone who went long the USDJPY, just experienced the move of a lifetime because the Yen just had its biggest weekly drop in the 21st century, going all the way back to 1999.

Former Admiral Urges America To Prepare For Imminent Naval Battle With China

by James Holbrooks, Activist Post:
In a congressional hearing on Wednesday, former Director of National Intelligence and retired Navy admiral Dennis Blair told the panel that the United States should be prepared to use military force to oppose Chinese aggression in the South China Sea.
“I think we need to have some specific lines and then encourage China to compromise on some of its objectives,” Blair, who headed the U.S. Pacific Command while in the Navy, said at the hearing.
The admiral’s recommendation came the day after a United Nations tribunal invalidated China’s claim of territorial rights to nearly all of the waters in the South China Sea. Other nations in the region — including the Philippines, who brought the action against China in 2013 — also claim sovereignty in that zone.

Why America’s Youth Would Choose Terrorist Gadaffi Over Clinton as President

by Dave Hodges, The Common Sense Show:
Bernie Sanders was a modern-day Gaddafi, but unfortunately Sanders abandoned an entire generation of youth that pinned their inexperienced and naive hopes on a candidate who was only offered as a candidate in order to provide the illusion that Americans actually have a choice in elections, when in fact, they have none.
Sanders was often criticized because of his promises of things like free college seemed impracticable. However, his plan was doable if he identified where the money was going to come from. And where the money could be redistributed if the power of the economy was taken away from the banks. Sanders did not have the guts to wage that battle.
For as impossible as the Sanders platform seemed to be, there is historical precedent for how it could have worked and the answer on how that could have happened would really surprise you.

NOT A WHITE PROBLEM

by Jim Quinn, The Burning Platform:

The statistics in the chart below are representative of every Democrat controlled urban shithole city in America. Obama and his anti-gun activist minions are peddling a false narrative about guns because they understand most Americans are dumber than a sack of hammers and easily manipulated by propaganda. Obama uses every high profile shooting to blame guns, in order to deflect people from seeing the truth. And the truth is guns are not a problem in white America.
It’s only a problem in the urban ghettos with the toughest gun laws run by Democrat mayors and city councils. Chicago is a perfect example of Obama ignoring the real problem. Fifty years of welfare programs and treating black people like victims has created a dysfunctional system leading to hopelessness, crime, and perpetual poverty. Chicago is 32% white, but they commit only 3.5% of the murders. Over 96% of the murders are committed by non-whites. Essentially, it is young black men murdering other black men. White people are not in the equation and are not part of the problem. It’s a black problem framed as a gun problem by Obama and his lying apparatchiks.

Spain’s Banks are Suddenly “Too Broke To Fine”

by Don Quijones, Wolf Street:
Consumer rights v. broke banks: guess who just lost.
After eight years of chronic crisis mismanagement, moral hazard and perverse incentives have infected just about every part of the financial system. Earlier this week, the U.S. Congress published the findings of a three-year investigation into why the Department of Justice chose not to punish HSBC and its executives for their violations of US anti-money laundering laws and related offenses – because doing so would have had “serious adverse consequences” for the financial system – the “Too Big To Jail” phenomenon, a perfect, all-purpose, real-world Get-Out-of-Jail-Free card [read… Congress: “Too Big to Jail: Inside the Obama Justice Department’s Decision Not to Hold Wall Street Accountable”].
But now there’s “Too Broke to Fine.”
Today over a dozen Spanish banks were given a life-line by the EU’s advocate general, Paolo Mengozzi, that could be worth billions of euros in savings for the banks. For millions of Spanish mortgage holders, it could mean billions of euros in lost compensation.

The Pump and Dump of UK Residential Property

by Alasdair Macleod, GoldMoney:
Messrs Carney and Osborne are turning out to be a dangerous double-act for UK residential property investors.
They have been using monetary and fiscal policies through a combination of directed bank lending, selectively increasing transaction taxes and by implementing other tax policies with a view to suppressing demand for residential property.
If they think they can fine-tune these markets, history suggests they will eventually fail. There are significant challenges facing the UK residential property investors already, without state intervention. Incidentally, the problems discussed herein have little to do with the current difficulties faced by commercial property funds in the UK, which have had to suspend redemptions because of illiquidity, though their structural failure sends us a timely reminder about this inflexible characteristic of property generally.

Putin Adviser Sergey Karaganov Warns Germany’s Der Spiegel NATO Will Get ‘Punished’ if It Picks a Fight with Russia

from Rogue Money:
Sergei Karaganov is the honorary chairman of the influential Council on Foreign and Defence Policy which advises the President of the Russian Federation. Therefore when he speaks, at least someone in the (post)Western media in the form of Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine takes notice.
Although Der Spiegel may exaggerate with what a Reddit translator calls a ‘clickbait headline’ in declaring that Karaganov ‘threatens NATO openly’, the reality as acknowledged by many on both sides is that the ‘tripwire force’ of four battalions the Alliance is deploying to the Baltic states is sufficient to anger Moscow and provide scary footage for the Russian television narrative of (post)Western aggression. ‘Kremlin TV’ can now honestly tell the Russian people that the same American soldiers who invaded Iraq and a few left around who occupied the Russians’ Serbian Orthodox ‘brothers’ in Kosovo are at Mother Russia’s doorstep. Paradoxically, four battalions consisting of barely more than 4,000 men remains far too small a contingent to avoid getting crushed quickly in an actual war with Russia — and U.S. generals and the RAND Corporation admit it.

America Wastes About HALF The Food That It Produces While Hunger Runs Rampant Around The Globe

by Michael Snyder, The Economic Collapse Blog:
Is the United States the most wasteful nation on the entire planet? We are all certainly guilty of wasting food. Whether it is that little bit that you don’t want to eat at the end of a meal, or that produce that you forgot about in the back of the refrigerator that went moldy, the truth is that we could all do better at making sure that good food does not get wasted. It can be tempting to think that wasting food is not a big deal because we have so much of it, but an increasing number of people around the world are really hurting these days. In fact, it has been estimated that there are more than a billion hungry people around the globe right now. So as a society we need to figure out how to waste a whole lot less food and how to get it into the mouths of those that really need it.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, close to a third of all food in the United States gets wasted after it gets to the store. This is commonly referred to as “downstream” waste. When you add all of this “downstream” waste up, it comes to a grand total of 133 billion pounds of food each year

The Gold Rally YOU DO NOT SELL: Legendary Gold Trader Jim Sinclair Issues “The Most Important Article You Will Ever Read”

by Jim Sinclair, Silver Doctors:
I have asked Editor Dan to post Stockman’s article in total today on JSMineset because here is where we are now and where we are going in the future in a much larger way than anything before.
I have been looking for the reason for the Fed’s Chair visit at the White House recently. What this will do is bury the fiat currency system in terms of buying power. It is already dead as a storehouse of wealth. The carrot on the string to own money, interest rates, are presently history. This is what the present administration and its economic clone democratic candidate are counting on.
This is the substance that the meeting between the Federal Reserve and the White House was all about.
