Why The Keynesian Market Wreckers Are Now Coming For Even Your Ben Franklins
Why The Keynesian Market Wreckers Are Now Coming For Even Your Ben Franklins Larry Summers is a pretentious Keynesian fool, but I refer to him as the Great Thinker’s Vicar on Earth for a reason. To wit, every time the latest experiment in Keynesian intervention fails——as 84 months of ZIRP and massive QE clearly have—–he can be counted on to trot out […]
The Banking Turmoil Spreads—-Massive Banking Crisis Brewing In Singapore
The Banking Turmoil Spreads—-Massive Banking Crisis Brewing In Singapore By Singapore Business Review The three biggest banks are losing capital. A crisis of staggering proportions is looming in China, and tiny Singapore will be caught right in the middle of the storm once the disaster finally erupts.

Mutual Funds, ETFs at Risk of a Run Warns Stockman
Mutual Funds, ETFs at Risk of a Run Warns Stockman In one of his starkest warnings yet, Former White House Budget Director (Office of Management and Budget, OMB), David Stockman has warned that banks and the global financial system remain vulnerable and there is likely to be another global financial crisis which will be worse than the […]
Take Cover—–Now Comes The Gong Show
Take Cover—–Now Comes The Gong Show It was a bad hair night for the Beltway. Among the roughly 515,000 votes cast in the New Hampshire primaries, about 55% or 280,000 went to Bernie, the Donald and Senator Cruz. That is, the preponderance of Republican, Democrat and independent votes alike went for the anti-establishment candidates. Since the latter are basically […]
The Spook In the Casino—–Recession Just Ahead, Part 1
The Spook In the Casino—–Recession Just Ahead, Part 1 The wise guys keep buying the dips owing to the simple proposition that there is never a lasting bear market without a recession. So after today’s blow-out we are likely to get another call to scoop up the “bargains” because the correction has run its course and […]
The War On Savers And The 200 Rulers Of Global Finance
The War On Savers And The 200 Rulers Of Global Finance There has been an economic coup d’état in America and most of the world. We are now ruled by about 200 unelected central bankers, monetary apparatchiks and their minions and megaphones on Wall Street and other financial centers. Unlike Senator Joseph McCarthy, I actually do have a list of their names. […]
Slouching Toward The Dark Side
Slouching Toward The Dark Side Last Wednesday we noted there is something rotten in the state of Denmark, meaning that the world’s great potemkin village of Bubble Finance is unraveling. The evidence piles up by the day. To wit, now comes still another story about the Red Paddy Wagons rolling out in China. This time they are rounding-up the proprietors of a $7.6 […]
Death Throes Of The Bull
Death Throes Of The Bull The fast money and robo-machines keep trying to ignite stock rallies, but they all fizzle because bad karma is beginning to infect the casino. That is, apprehension is growing among whatever adults are left on Wall Street that 84 months of ZIRP and $3.5 trillion of Fed balance sheet expansion, aka money printing, […]
Red Ponzi Ticking
Red Ponzi Ticking There is something rotten in the state of Denmark. And we are not talking just about the hapless socialist utopia on the Jutland Peninsula——even if it does strip assets from homeless refugees, charge savers 75 basis points for the deposit privilege and allocate nearly 60% of its GDP to the Welfare State and its untoward ministrations. In fact, the […]

Why Dip Buyers Will Get Clobbered: The US Economy Isn’t Doing “Just Fine”
Why Dip Buyers Will Get Clobbered: The US Economy Isn’t Doing “Just Fine” As of June 2008 no Wall Street banking house was predicting a recession, yet by then the Great Recession—–the worst economic downturn since the 1930s—– was already six months old, as per the NBER’s subsequent official reckoning. Actually, it was already several years old if you concede that […]
The Sleepwalkers Awaken
The Sleepwalkers Awaken A host on bubblevision this afternoon noted that the S&P 500 is now down $2 trillion for the year and wondered if his panel could explain “what’s happened since January 1st?” The implication, of course, was that since no new recessions have started—- nor have any new wars been declared, polar glaciers melted or Wall Street banks […]
Soon Comes The Deluge
Soon Comes The Deluge The robo-machines are now having a grand old time hazing the August lows at 1870 on the S&P, and may succeed in ginning up another dead-cat bounce or two. But this market is going down for the count owing to a perfect storm. To wit, the global and US economies are heading […]
Amazon And The Fantastic FANGs——A Bubblicious Breakfast Of Unicorns And Slippery Accounting
Amazon And The Fantastic FANGs——A Bubblicious Breakfast Of Unicorns And Slippery Accounting At year end we posted a rant about the “Brobdingnagian” bubble embedded in Amazon’s market cap. On December 29th it was valued at $325 billion and had gained $180 billion or 55% of that towering figure in just the previous 12 months. Self-evidently this was a flashing red warning signal that the end of the […]
Hey, Wall Street——-This Bud’s For You!
Hey, Wall Street——-This Bud’s For You! The hordes of Washington politicians promising to boost the nation’s economic growth rate and the posse of monetary central planners and their Keynesian economists (excuse the redundancy) lamenting that “escape velocity” appears to have gone MIA have one thing in common. To wit, they have never looked at the chart below, or don’t get it if they have. Plain and […]
