The Fed Induced Farce
The Fed Induced Farce The minutes from the last Fed meeting were released on Wednesday afternoon. The minutes, along with a squadron of jabbering Fed heads lying about the economy doing great, pretty much locked in the most talked about .25% interest rate increase in world history. Evidently the Wall Street titans of greed have […]
Ignore the Media Bullsh*t–Retail Implosion Proves We Are In Recession
Ignore the Media Bullsh*t–Retail Implosion Proves We Are In Recession Here we go again.

The Punch Bowl Stays And The Bubble Keeps Inflating
The Punch Bowl Stays And The Bubble Keeps Inflating It is well known that I don’t think much of the ability of government officials to correctly forecast much of anything. Alan Greenspan and Ben Bernanke have made famously clueless predictions with respect to stock and housing bubbles, and rank and file Fed economists have consistently overestimated […]

Money Worries
Money Worries The cynicism among the informed classes has never been so deep.

The Economic Wall Dead Ahead Is Hidden Behind False Signs Of “Recovery” This morning I had left the TV mistakenly tuned to CNBC with the sound on—-and unavoidably caught another bullish strategist jawing about the US economy’s awesome strength. This one was peddling as exhibit #1 the recent surge in C&I loans, arguing that it is a sure sign that business is gearing up […]

In Defense of Peter Schiff – Ludwig von Mises Institute Canada. The financial television channel CNBC has hit hard times. Nielsen ratings show the network’s viewership is at a 21 year low.
