Sweden’s New Government Censorship
Sweden’s New Government Censorship In the report, placing the word “refugees” in quotation marks, as well as “unaccompanied children,” is supposedly an expression of “hate”.

Sweden: The World’s Biggest Housing Bubble Cracks
Sweden: The World’s Biggest Housing Bubble Cracks Sweden’s property bubble is probably the world’s biggest, despite which it gets relatively little coverage in the mainstream financial media – although that might be about to change.

Larry Summers – it […]
Sweden Begins 5 Year Countdown Until It Eliminates Cash
Sweden Begins 5 Year Countdown Until It Eliminates Cash How much louder can the “ban cash” calls get?

Deranged Central Bankers Blowing Up the World
DERANGED CENTRAL BANKERS BLOWING UP THE WORLD It is now self-evident to any sentient being (excludes CNBC shills, Wall Street shyster economists, and Keynesian loving politicians) the mountainous level of unpayable global debt is about to crash down like an avalanche upon hundreds of millions of willfully ignorant citizens who trusted their politician leaders and […]
Negative Interest Rates Already in Fed’s Official Scenario
Negative Interest Rates Already in Fed’s Official Scenario But forget QE-4. The Germans, with Teutonic precision, call them “Punishment Interest.” Negative interest rates are spreading from the ECB’s negative deposit rate across the bond market and to some savings accounts in the Eurozone. The idea is to enrich existing bond holders and flog savers until […]

Time to Keep Your Cash in the Microwave?
Time to Keep Your Cash in the Microwave? The Fed’s Big Pivot NORMANDY, France – “Now, I think I’ve seen everything” is an expression that – like “this is the end of history” and “I’ll never leave you” – usually turns out to be premature. But it is what we found ourselves saying yesterday. Not […]
