MARKET DIRECTION
A batch of mixed earnings reports from the likes of GE (GE), Bank of America (BAC),
Citigroup (C) and Google (GOOG) combined with a deeper-than-expected drop in
consumer sentiment to drive stocks lower on Friday. The banks were the prime driver
behind the earnings-driven declines as investors worried over lower trading revenue at the
financial firms. On the consumer sentiment side, consumers were much more pessimistic
in July as the University of Michigan sentiment index slumped to 66.5 from 76.
Expectations were for a reading of 74.3. The consumer-price index also dropped to a
seasonally adjusted 0.1%, the third straight monthly decline, according to Labor
Department report this morning, fueling concerns about deflation. But the more closely
followed core rate rose 0.2%. It excludes volatile food and energy prices and is seen as a
better gauge of inflation. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch had predicted a flat
reading in overall consumer prices and a 0.1% increase in the core rate. Earnings season
kicks into high gear next week as a hefty crop of top names report quarterly financials. On
Monday, IBM (IBM) and Texas Instruments (TXN) are due with numbers, followed by Apple
(AAPL), Goldman Sachs (GS), Harley-Davidson (HOG) and Yahoo (YHOO) on Tuesday.
eBay (EBAY), Morgan Stanley (MS), Netflix (NFLX), Qualcomm (QCOM) and Starbucks
(SBUX) are slated to post financials on Wednesday. On Thursday, traders will see
quarterly results from Amazon.com (AMZN), Caterpillar (CAT), Microsoft (MSFT) and UPS
(UPS), followed by McDonald's (MCD) and Verizon (VZ) on Friday. On the economic front,
data flow is light next week, with building permits and housing starts due for release
Tuesday, followed by crude inventories on Wednesday. Initial claims, existing home sales
and leading indicators will be distributed on Thursday. Elsewhere in today's market, BP
Plc (BP) said its damaged Gulf of Mexico well, which has gushed crude since April had
showed no signs of oil leaks since the company tightened a new cap into place, The New
York Times reported. A BP executive said that pressure had built up inside the well as BP
engineers had predicted and hoped it would. Bank of America (BAC) and Citigroup (C)
shares declined even as both banks posted better-than-expected results on lower credit
losses after investors saw challenges for the two banks to raise revenue in a tough
economy, Reuters reports. Vivus Inc. (VVUS) was hammered lower after an FDA panel
voted against its diet pill, Qnexa, due to concerns about serious side effects. Goldman
Sachs (GS) bucked the broader market and the banking sector, up 2% on the heels of its
deal with the Securities and Exchange Commission to settle a civil fraud suit for $550
million. Crude-oil for August delivery ended down 0.8%, or $0.61, to $76.01 a barrel on the
New York Mercantile Exchange. In other energy futures, heating oil fell 0.41%, or $0.05, to
$2.01 a gallon while natural gas fell 1.1%, or $0.05, to $4.53 per million British thermal
units. Meanwhile, gold futures fell to their lowest level since May. Gold for August delivery
fell $20.10, or 1.7%, to $1,188.20 an ounce. In other metal futures, silver fell $0.51, or 2.8%,
to $17.85 a troy ounce while copper fell 3% to $2.93 a pound.

Rockefeller Study Outlines “Doom Decade”: Life For All But Super Wealthy
Will Be Hell On Earth In our leading article today we provide an
overview of the nightmare future envisaged by a recent Rockefeller
Foundation study which describes a global dictatorship tightly
controlled by the world’s elite and super rich.

Congress Passes Bankster Consolidation Bill Change has arrived. But it is


not the sort of change imagined by the fawning mobs of 2008 at
Obama’s campaign rallies. Obama and Congress have pulled a three-
card Monte on the American people. It’s called “financial regulatory
reform” and it hands unprecedented power over to the Federal
Reserve.

Fed Gets More Power, Responsibility After fending off most challenges to
its independence and winning new powers to oversee big financial
firms, the Federal Reserve has emerged from a bruising debate on the
overhaul of U.S. financial rules as perhaps the pre-eminent regulator
in the sector. But that could only bring it added blame if things go
wrong again.

psychologists, etc.) as neurogenesis in varying degrees and forms
thereby over time, which trait was selected for and is consistent with

overtly contradict ultimately, initial African origins. Races, sub-
species, missing links, etc., are subsumed in this very humbling and
sorrowful tale of the “dawn of man”.] [see infra] …] Global
pandemics that kill millions, mandatory quarantines, checkpoints,

These things are not lifted from the latest sci-fi blockbuster movie,
they’re part of the Rockefeller Foundation’s vision for what the globe
might be like in 15-20 years’ time under a new world order tightly
controlled by the elite. [That’s getting awfully close to the outside

Pentagon warns Congress: Accounts running dry...(Drudgereport) Isn’t this


headline eerily reminiscent of that seminal B film by Roger Corman for
Jack Nicholson, ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ (and remake) wherein a murderous
vegetable / plant clamors incessantly and insatiably, ‘feed me’. Eight U.S.
service members killed in series of attacks in southern Afghanistan
(Washington Post, July 15, 2010) . This ridiculous war apparently for the
sake of the american sponsored reinvigorated heroin trade was a bad idea
ab initio even if america wasn’t defacto bankrupt.

Concern over smashing into the 'wall of debt' (Washington Post) Oh,
they’ve hit the wall alright; and, it’s not just debt.

I believe the printing presses have been working overtime to pump out
ever more worthless fiat currency and with the many trillions of
worthless fraudulent paper still out there and marked to anything. I
further believe the same is being surreptitiously used to supplant the
fraudulent paper, the consequences of which will be devastating, of
course, as is invariably so in depressions in any event. This scenario
would also mean huge fraud accomplis. This market is paper on paper
moving around and generating commissions at lightning
computerized speed but adding no real value in real economic terms;
again, the analogy of termites eating away at the (nation’s) foundation
is apposite. As such, that money has to come from some real place
and hence, the ever more frequent and larger crashes we are seeing.
Don’t forget that the worthless paper from previous such fraudulent
schemes now marked to anything is still out there in a magnitude
some have placed in the hundreds of trillions.

Biggest wall will be reality:

‘This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in a global


depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a
secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as has
preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street frauds
and insiders commission and sell into.’

Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011


The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between
2010 and 2012

Economists worry women, minority business owners' gains will be lost


(Washington Post) Little bit late for ‘economists worry’; talk about
senile greenspan / no-recession bernanke economics /
prognosticating. Does anybody recall the merciless drubbing (and
pressure) that Ross Perot got for predicting the ill effects of NAFTA
and standing against the tide. In america today, the best men never
win; that’s reality, and also the sign of decline.

Exports are up, but where are the jobs? (Washington Post) Gone with the
wind? Sorry, I must have been thinking of million dollar movies. Seriously
though, I dare say everyone knows they were gone with that ‘bi-partisan
executive / congressional, think-tank, cia / nsa ill wind’ that others might
refer to as flatulence / passing gas, also called NAFTA, and also proudly
hailed by the foregoing as ‘strategy’. They’re gone, and never to return.
Moreover, the flipside of the exports, viz., imports, doesn’t bode well
despite the fraudulent wall street b*** s*** and their chorus of cheerleaders
in washington. Some might say self-delusion but I would say fraud covers
all.

Companies pile up cash but still won't add jobs (Washington Post) Unlike
the public sector (which now exceeds private sector in job gains and
average compensation), the private sector attempts to mesh hiring with
economic supply / demand factors to maximize (shareholder) profits /
wealth. Whatever faults american companies have, with relatively few
exceptions, this still remains a very basic fundamental and building
surplus (generating profits) is a necessary precept to ensure survival and
the capacity to be a good ‘citizen’ so to speak. Then there’s reality:

Retail sales down for 2nd consecutive month (Washington Post) Another
‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street! This time it’s the unexpected
downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales report and poor
retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then there’s the fed
minutes pointing to extended bad economy. See Dave Fry’s (Daily)
summary below referencing in euphemistic fashion, yet another ongoing
manipulation also known as fraud. (Absent prosecutions, they’ll continue
to do what comes natural to frauds on wall street). Great opportunity to sell
/ take profits since much worse, also called reality beyond the b*** s***, to
come. Then there’s also the bad but typical news; viz., retail sales,
mortgage apps, economic outlook down, and yesterday deficits, trade and
budget, up.

Mideast Digest: Wow! Belfast, Northern Ireland; and in the Mideast Digest
Section, of all places. It’s been a long time. While I have had some
difficulties with Irish mob in the context of litigation but only
tangential to my primary RICO action vis-à-vis the Italian mob (and
similarly tangentially the jewish mob and then primarily what I learned
to be ‘governmental mob’, federal, state, local, derivative thereby and
the sine quo non of corruption / bribery / synergy that spells decline
for any nation), it is difficult to not be empathetic to the plight of an
otherwise beautiful nation tainted only by the orange stain in that
northern quarter. After all, what hasn’t england not mucked up from
balfour to the mideast to now even their own nation having hitched a
ride on the american / israeli crazy train. As a matter of disclosure, I
must admit to an affinity for the Irish and somewhat fairly recently had
been asked what I thought of Philadelphia to which without hesitation
I immediately replied that Grace Kelly (truly magnificent by any
standard) was born there. I could think of nothing else that could
parallel such a distinction.

NATION NEWS DIGEST: J.P. Morgan Chase posts $4.8 billion profit
(Washington Post) Yet another ‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street!
This time it’s the unexpected jump in continuing claims for unemployment,
yesterday the downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales
report and poor retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then
there’s the fed minutes pointing to extended bad economy. Then there’s
also now the ‘goldfinger factor’ as in goldman’s middle finger. When you
defraud for many billions, paying $550 million is chump change. Goldman
shares rocketed 5.5% in after-hours trading. No wonder Goldman called it
"the right outcome for our firm shareholders and clients." (Absent
prosecutions, they’ll continue to do what comes natural to frauds on wall
street). Great opportunity to sell / take profits since much worse, also
called reality beyond the b*** s***, to come. Then there’s also the bad but
typical news; viz., previous retail sales, mortgage apps, economic outlook
down, and continuing claims for unemployment, deficits, trade / budget,
up. (Just in: 7-16-10 Poll – only 43% of Americans approve of the
Afganistan War, down from 52% in January, 2010)

Pearlstein: Can regulation beget innovation? (Washington Post) I believe


the more seminal question to be, whether american companies, consistent
with overall american decline and corruption in so pervasive a fashion, are
capable of or inclined toward real innovation where enhancements to
productivity, as well as greater profits, is the consequence as desired.
Certainly there has been ‘innovation’ by the wall street frauds in the types
of (ultimately worthless / fraudulent) paper and high frequency trade
programs enhancing their bottom-lines but little else; and, those cutting
edge ‘weapons of mass destruction’ produced or financed (israel) by
america are hardly productive in the economic sense but innovative and
profitable in the short run, and unwise and nation-bankrupting in the longer
run which we’re in right now!

Goldman agrees to pay $550M (Washington Post) My own skepticism


based on the disparate numbers (the size of the frauds compared to
the relatively small fine) and as set forth in the initial reactions /
headlines that immediately follow has been allayed somewhat by an
interview on NBR with former SEC head Ruder who explained the very
narrow scope of the settlement which in no way shelters goldman
from the huge frauds they have perpetrated. So long as this is true in
fact as well as law and in application, the SEC deserves praise as has
been so under the auspices of ‘Mother Mary’ who appears to have the
gonads lacking in prior SEC heads. The frauds on wall street et als
should be criminally prosecuted, jailed, fined, and disgorgement
imposed.

Ex-Justice official: CIA may have exceeded limits (Washington Post) Wee
doggies! This sounds like the stuff that SNL Weekend Update ‘Really’ skits
are made of; also fitting into that list of queries as, ‘Is the Pope Catholic?’,
‘Do bears **** in the woods?’, etc.. Come on! Wake up! This is the kind of
complicit cover-up / corruption found betwixt and between all three
branches of the u.s. government leading ineluctably to america’s current
decline and to which I’ve attested under penalty of perjury in the context of
the RICO litigation [

Pentagon warns Congress: Accounts running dry...(Drudgereport) Isn’t this


headline eerily reminiscent of that seminal B film by Roger Corman for
Jack Nicholson, ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ (and remake) wherein a murderous
vegetable / plant clamors incessantly and insatiably, ‘feed me’. Eight U.S.
service members killed in series of attacks in southern Afghanistan
(Washington Post, July 15, 2010) . This ridiculous war apparently for the
sake of the american sponsored reinvigorated heroin trade was a bad idea
ab initio even if america wasn’t defacto bankrupt.

Concern over smashing into the 'wall of debt' (Washington Post) Oh,
they’ve hit the wall alright; and, it’s not just debt.

I believe the printing presses have been working overtime to pump out
ever more worthless fiat currency and with the many trillions of
worthless fraudulent paper still out there and marked to anything. I
further believe the same is being surreptitiously used to supplant the
fraudulent paper, the consequences of which will be devastating, of
course, as is invariably so in depressions in any event. This scenario
would also mean huge fraud accomplis. This market is paper on paper
moving around and generating commissions at lightning
computerized speed but adding no real value in real economic terms;
again, the analogy of termites eating away at the (nation’s) foundation
is apposite. As such, that money has to come from some real place
and hence, the ever more frequent and larger crashes we are seeing.
Don’t forget that the worthless paper from previous such fraudulent
schemes now marked to anything is still out there in a magnitude
some have placed in the hundreds of trillions.

Biggest wall will be reality:

‘This is a global depression. This is a secular bear market in a global


depression. The past up move was a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a
secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated bubble as has
preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall street frauds
and insiders commission and sell into.’
Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011
The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between
2010 and 2012

Economists worry women, minority business owners' gains will be lost


(Washington Post) Little bit late for ‘economists worry’; talk about
senile greenspan / no-recession bernanke economics /
prognosticating. Does anybody recall the merciless drubbing (and
pressure) that Ross Perot got for predicting the ill effects of NAFTA
and standing against the tide. In america today, the best men never
win; that’s reality, and also the sign of decline.

Exports are up, but where are the jobs? (Washington Post) Gone with the
wind? Sorry, I must have been thinking of million dollar movies. Seriously
though, I dare say everyone knows they were gone with that ‘bi-partisan
executive / congressional, think-tank, cia / nsa ill wind’ that others might
refer to as flatulence / passing gas, also called NAFTA, and also proudly
hailed by the foregoing as ‘strategy’. They’re gone, and never to return.
Moreover, the flipside of the exports, viz., imports, doesn’t bode well
despite the fraudulent wall street b*** s*** and their chorus of cheerleaders
in washington. Some might say self-delusion but I would say fraud covers
all.

Companies pile up cash but still won't add jobs (Washington Post) Unlike
the public sector (which now exceeds private sector in job gains and
average compensation), the private sector attempts to mesh hiring with
economic supply / demand factors to maximize (shareholder) profits /
wealth. Whatever faults american companies have, with relatively few
exceptions, this still remains a very basic fundamental and building
surplus (generating profits) is a necessary precept to ensure survival and
the capacity to be a good ‘citizen’ so to speak. Then there’s reality:

Retail sales down for 2nd consecutive month (Washington Post) Another
‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street! This time it’s the unexpected
downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales report and poor
retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then there’s the fed
minutes pointing to extended bad economy. See Dave Fry’s (Daily)
summary below referencing in euphemistic fashion, yet another ongoing
manipulation also known as fraud. (Absent prosecutions, they’ll continue
to do what comes natural to frauds on wall street). Great opportunity to sell
/ take profits since much worse, also called reality beyond the b*** s***, to
come. Then there’s also the bad but typical news; viz., retail sales,
mortgage apps, economic outlook down, and yesterday deficits, trade and
budget, up.

Mideast Digest: Wow! Belfast, Northern Ireland; and in the Mideast Digest
Section, of all places. It’s been a long time. While I have had some
difficulties with Irish mob in the context of litigation but only
tangential to my primary RICO action vis-à-vis the Italian mob (and
similarly tangentially the jewish mob and then primarily what I learned
to be ‘governmental mob’, federal, state, local, derivative thereby and
the sine quo non of corruption / bribery / synergy that spells decline
for any nation), it is difficult to not be empathetic to the plight of an
otherwise beautiful nation tainted only by the orange stain in that
northern quarter. After all, what hasn’t england not mucked up from
balfour to the mideast to now even their own nation having hitched a
ride on the american / israeli crazy train. As a matter of disclosure, I
must admit to an affinity for the Irish and somewhat fairly recently had
been asked what I thought of Philadelphia to which without hesitation
I immediately replied that Grace Kelly (truly magnificent by any
standard) was born there. I could think of nothing else that could
parallel such a distinction.

WHICH WAY IS THE MARKET GOING NEXT? Gomes: ‘Having been a technical analyst for the
first 10 years of my investing career and a fundamental analyst for the past 15 years, I'm a
believer that technical patterns form as fundamentals unfold. As such, if you know something
about both, you can confirm both against each other. At this point in time, I see a market that is
technically reaching up toward its 200 day moving average (2,250 for the NASDAQ). I also see a
50 day moving average that is threatening to drop below that 200 day moving average.
Technically, that is usually a very bad sign for the market. The question is, "will the 50DMA drop
below the 200DMA?" I think the answer is inevitably "yes". The thing about the moving averages,
is that you can see which points of data are about to fall off. Meanwhile, you can make
reasonable assumptions regarding the points of data that will take their place. By doing so, you
can construct a range of probabilistic scenarios. In this case, some high numbers are about to
come out of the 50DMA, making it go lower. Meanwhile, some low numbers are about to come
out of the 200DMA, making it go higher. Since both are VERY close to each other right now, it's
safe to assume that the 50DMA will indeed fall below the 200DMA. So, that's probably bad news
for the market...technically. Fundamentally, it appears that Q2 turned out well for most
companies. However, most of the investing world knows this and stocks have rallied about 8% on
the news. Ever hear the saying "buy the rumor, sell the news"? Well, the rumor has been bought
and the news is just starting to flow in. This means that we have to look at the NEXT bit of news
to figure out what rumor the market will be buying or selling. To me, it's clear that the global
economic environment will come back to the front burner as the #1 driver of stock prices...and
that's bad news for stocks. A good Q2 does not mean that the future is bright. Rather, I believe
that Q2 will represent the peak of earnings health. Starting in Q3, good earnings will become a bit
harder to come by. Why?
1) Economic indicators are dropping fast. For all intents and purposes, the unemployment rate
has not budged. Meanwhile, store shelves are stocked again, PCs have been upgraded, etc. In
other words, the pent-up demand that drove the current rebound has almost run its course. What
little remains no longer has the power to drive the economy as it has over the past 18-months.
2) "Follow the money". This is one of the most powerfully simple rules on Wall Street. When
money is flowing into the economy (i.e. via lower interest rates or stimulus $$$), it's usually good
for stocks..and vice versa. At present, interest rates can't go much lower and the numerous
stimulus programs are losing effectiveness. This means that the money is no longer flowing in.
Worse yet, the money that was spent is not generally viewed as having been money well spent.
This does not bode well for a new stimulus package to come anytime soon. In other words,
money is not flowing in AND doesn't appear poised to flow in anytime soon. In fact, state and
municipal budgets are being cut (money flowing OUT), while they raise local sales and income
taxes (more money flowing out). if federal taxes go up in 2011, as planned, even more money will
be flowing out. If you follow that, you should be flowing out of the stock market. In short, barring a
new stimulus package of other major money-flowing event, I believe the economy slips back
toward recession. Whether or not we double-dip, we will almost certainty slip in that direction.
3) If you follow the money in Europe, you will run for the hills. Europe has decided to spin
180-degrees and shift from stimulus to austerity (if you don't know the definition, look it up -- you'll
likely hear it again -- and not just from me). Effectively the opposite of stimulus, austerity will pull
money away from the European economies...which tells us to pull money away from stocks.
Worse yet, the effect of the EU/IMF bailout is already wearing off. Greek yields are rising again
and Portuguese credit ratings have been reduced.
4) Global bubbles are bursting. Most notably, home sales in China and Canada are starting to
fall. Remember what happened when the U.S. housing market cracked? That's right -- that's what
started this mess in the first place.
5) Politically, this period in time has a tendency to be bad for stocks. There is uncertainty
around the mid-year elections...and the market hates uncertainty. Historically, the political picture
doesn't become clear until October, at which point we might expect a rally. Until then, expect the
democrats to do everything they can to retain their jobs in November. That means, "stop pissing
off the public"...and the public seems pretty pissed about how the stimulus $$$ worked out for
them (or more accurately, how it DIDN'T work out for them). Thus, the political pressure will lean
against further stimulus until after the elections.
The Bottom Line: I believe that the market will start to reflect these concerns very soon. These
are real fundamental concerns, which you can see reflected in the technicals. As the market
reaches the 50DMA and the 200DMA, it will be inclined to retreat (barring some new, hugely
positive news). Meanwhile, the 50DMA is 90%+ likely to cross below the 200DMA, giving the
market more reason to retrench. At some point, if the economy sinks far enough and if the market
drops far enough, political pressure for more stimulus will mount. At that point, money will flow
back into the economy. But that time is not now. Now, money is flowing away like the tide...and
so should your invested capital. I'm not always right, but I do my best, based on the information
before me. Based on what I see right now, the most logical conclusion is to expect a long, ugly
summer for stocks. If I see information that changes that view, I'll be sure to post an update to this
post. Disclosure: I have short positions against the market

Simon Maierhofer: ‘On Friday July 9, 2010, 4:32 pm EDT It rarely ever happens, but when it
does, it's serious. It has only happened nine times in 10 years. We are referring to crossovers
between the 200-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMAs).Very few technical indicators
receive as much attention and media coverage as the 50 and 200-day SMAs. The 200-day MA is
perceived to be the dividing line between a stock that is technically healthy and one that is not.
It's a Big Deal It's a big deal when a stock or an index drops below the 200-day SMA. It's an
even bigger deal when the 50-day SMA of any given stock or index drops below the 200-day
SMA. Such a crossover reflects internal weakness - at least in theory. We'll discuss in a moment
how the actual numbers match up with theoretic assumptions. On June 22, 2010, the S&P 500
(SNP: ^GSPC) and Dow Jones (DJI: ^DJI) dropped below the 200-day SMA. One day later the
Nasdaq (Nasdaq: ^IXIC) followed. On July 2, 2010, the 50-day SMA for the S&P (NYSEArca:
SPY - News) dropped below the 200-day SMA. On July 6, the Dow Jones (NYSEArca: DIA -
News) followed. As of today, the Nasdaq (Nasdaq: QQQQ - News) is barely hanging on. This
sounds like a doomsday scenario. Does a rigid analysis show that there is validity to 200-day and
50-day SMA crossover buy/sell signals? Let's investigate.Crossovers - Lagging but Notable
Many argue that the SMA crossover is a delayed signal that emphasizes past weakness more
than it foreshadows future declines. To an extent, that is true. There are other warning signals
that point to a market turn long before the SMA does. For example, on April 16, 2010, the ETF
Profit Strategy Newsletter noted an extremely low put/call ratio along with other bullish sentiment
extremes. The newsletter stated that 'the message conveyed by the composite bullishness is
unmistakably bearish. Once prices start to fall and investors get afraid of incurring losses, the
only option is to sell (due to the low put/call ratio). Selling, results in more selling. This negative
feedback loop usually results in rapidly falling prices.' Prices did fall rapidly. The 22 trading days
following the April 26 high, erased eight months worth of gains. It took a 17% drop for the SMA
crossover to trigger a sell signal. When the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter issued a strong buy
signal on March 2, 2009, it emphasized that the developing rally would be a counter trend rally
followed by a steep decline and maintained this viewpoint even though prices kept rallying
relentlessly into the April highs. The SMA crossover now expresses the possibility that even lower
prices are ahead. 200 and 50-day SMA Crossovers - How Accurate? How about the SMA
crossover track record? Over the past 10 years, there have been nine S&P SMA crossovers with
five sell and four buy signals. We have yet to see the results of the most recent sell signal.
However, of the eight previous signals, six were correct. Average gains following each signal
were 14.91%. $10,000 invested according to the buy/sell recommendations given right after the
first sell signal was triggered on October 30, 2000 at S&P 1,399, would be worth $24,769 today.
More Than just Crossovers If it sounds too good to be true, it often is. As is the case with so
many technical indicators, crossovers need to be viewed in context with other indicators. In other
words, take a step back and evaluate how crossovers fit into the larger picture. The larger picture
(going back to 2007) reveals that trading volume associated with market declines has been
generally high, while trading volume seen during rallies has been generally low; a bearish sign.
Does Wednesday's 3.13% Rally Invalidate the Sell Signal? On Wednesday, the S&P rallied 32
points or 3.13%. The Dow rallied 2.82%, while the Nasdaq rallied 3.13%. Does this mean the bull
market is back on track?Since the April market top, we've seen about a handful of 2-3% bounces.
All associated gains were erased within a matter of days. Chances are this time will be the same.
In fact, some sort of bounce was to be expected. On July 5, the ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter
stated 'considering that the S&P is butting against the 100-week SMA, lower accelerations band,
38.2% Fibonacci retracement levels, round number resistance at 1,000, and weekly s1 at 994,
there is a good chance we will see some sort of a bounce develop from the 990 - 1,015 area.
Weekly r1 at 1,066 and pivot at 1,063 should serve as resistance.' This bounce is in its later
stages right now. What's Next? Let's revisit the larger picture. Out of the nine leading industry
sectors, seven have seen their 50-day SMA cross below the 200-day SMA - financials
(NYSEArca: XLF - News), technology (NYSEArca: XLK - News), consumer staples (NYSEArca:
XLP - News), materials (NYSEArca: XLB - News), utilities (NYSEArca: XLU - News), energy
(NYSEArca: XLE - News) and healthcare (NYSEArca: XLV - News). The consumer discretionary
(NYSEArca: XLY - News) and industrial sector (NYSEArca: XLI - News) are the only holdouts. All
nine sectors, however, trade below their 200-day SMA. Fundamentals, sentiment readings and
valuations also point south. Some of the fundamentals we have discussed in these pages are
crafty accounting practices designed to hide huge losses racked up by big financial institutions
not yet realized along with a continually bad unemployment picture. Sentiment surrounding the
April highs recorded extremes not seen since the 2000, 2007, and even 1987 market top. There
are multiple sentiment measures (such as the VIX, cash allocation, put/call ratio, percentage of
bullish/bearish advisors, mutual fund cash levels, etc.). Each sentiment measure is one piece of
the puzzle. The more pieces of the puzzle you have, the clearer the picture becomes. Leading up
to the April highs, nearly all sentiment indicators peaked, painting a complete bearish picture. In
summary, the bearish picture is confirmed by technical indicators, a fundamental outlook,
sentiment gauges, and valuations. Based on what the market considered fair market valuations at
prior historic market bottoms, one can conclude how far stocks have to drop to reach the
previously attained level of fair valuations. The ETF Profit Strategy Newsletter includes a detailed
analysis of four valuation metrics with a track record of accuracy, along with the implied target
range for an ultimate market bottom. This is provided in addition to its short, mid and long-term
forecast. When the market speaks, it behooves investors to listen. Fighting the tape has often
proven to be foolish, as the market will always have the final word.’

Commercial Real Estate Loans Extend and Pretend ‘…Courtesy of


Thomson / Reuters Commercial Real Estate Loans – Extend and Pretend
Community banks have commercial real estate loans where the borrower
cannot make scheduled interest and principle payments. More than 50% of
all FDIC-insured institutions have loan pipelines that are 80% to 100%
funded. This is a measure of how banks are stuck with noncurrent assets,
but they are not classified that way. Instead, community banks are giving
borrowers more time to make their payments on the theory that it’s better
to collect zero on some loans rather than owning the real estate that
collateralizes those loans. This concept is dubbed “extend and pretend”
hoping that the borrower will eventual pay the loan back. Banks in this
practice are known as “Zombie Banks” as they can’t lend, can’t lure in new
investors, and wait for the FDIC to knock on their doors on Friday
afternoon. This strategy includes stretching out loan maturities and
allowing below-market interest rates to slow the number of defaults and
preserving the capital of banks that would be expended if property had to
become “Other Real Estate Owned.” As a result “Loans 30 to 89 Days in
Arrears” and “Noncurrent” loans are not growing as fast as they should be.
The net result of these practices masks the true toxicity of the Commercial
Real Estate market. It’s not just the small banks that are employing “extend
and pretend” tactics. I read that the Bank of America (BAC) has extended a
large real estate loan in Buckhead, Georgia the high-class area north of
Atlanta. The loan finances the development of a high-end shopping and
residential project in 2007 and now three years later the cranes are silent
and the project is fenced in. The banking regulators are helping the banks
by allowing the lenders several ways to restructure loans. While doing so
the banks are allowed to keep these loans as “performing” even with
collateral values below the loan amounts. Extend and pretend is also
known as kicking the can down the road. It seems to me that we have
wasted billions if not trillions in stimulus money and bank bailouts when
this money could have been used to actually fund the completion of these
projects. Such a plan would have cost tax payers much less and would
have kept Americans working on Main Street USA, as finishing incompleted
real estate projects are clearly “shovel ready” projects. According to
Foresight Analytics banks hold $176 billion of CRE loans that could be
declared toxic. This is the tip of the iceberg as the FDIC Quarterly Banking
Profile shows $1.09 trillion in nonfarm nonresidential real estate loans and
$418 billion in Construction & Development loans on the books of our
nation’s banks. About two-thirds of the CRE loans are maturing between
now and 2014, and are underwater. Commercial real estate property values
are down 42% from the October 2007 peak. At the end of the first quarter
9.1% are delinquent up from 7% a year earlier. Bankers justify “extend and
pretend” saying that it’s better than calling the loan and dumping more
property on a depressed market. We need a stronger economy to entice
new investors to resurrect projects and to find new demand for competed
offices, hotels, condos etc which are the finished products of completed
CRE projects. Without a strong economic recovery these loans will
eventually have to be written off down the road. The problem is that while
these loans are on hold banks can’t justify new loans, which would be the
engine of economic growth. And the beat goes on. Disclosure: No positions’

Light Volume Temptations: Dave's Daily ‘Volume still matters, doesn't it? It
seems not as the financial media ignores our light volume market in favor
of writing bullish headlines. With hedge funds mostly sidelined according
to reports posted here yesterday, the primary buyers must be trading
desks on Wall Street and a handful of algo traders. It's tempting to come off
the sidelines and join the fun but perhaps it's just the trap they're laying for
you. A headline at Reuters read this afternoon: "Weaker Economic Views
Equals Stronger 3-Year Note Sale". So, if equity markets are forward-
looking one must wonder what these few buyers are seeing beyond a
short-term trade. Headline writers say its strong earnings growth that will
prop markets coupled with rosy outlooks. That would have to be the case
otherwise this is just a sucker's rally. As stated, volume was holiday-like
light (40% below average) making it really easy for the machines to take

Scare the Heck Out of You Greg Hunter | I was sitting here trying to
find a way to wrap up the week and then, like a bolt of lightning, an
idea hit me.Gold expert Jim Sinclair sent me this story: “Federal
Budget Deficit Hits $1 Trillion For 1st 9 Months Of FY’10.” The story said,
“The shortfall, reflecting $2.6 trillion in outlays for the first three quarters
and $1.6 trillion in receipts, narrowed slightly compared with the same point
in fiscal 2009.” So where did the “shortfall” come from? Try the more
that 8 million who lost their jobs. The story went on to say, “. . .
individual income and payroll tax receipts were down 4% over the nine-
month period, suggesting that wages and salaries have not improved to the
extent that corporate profits have.” Corporate profits have “improved”
because they laid-off all those workers!! (Click here for the entire Dow
Jones Newswires story) Sinclair says, “Nothing has changed. Nothing
has been rescued. The can that is being kicked daily down the path is going
to turn around and bite the kickers. Gold is the only insurance.” When
things get bad enough, there will be more stimulus cash put into the
economy and more bank bailouts. Sinclair is like legendary football
quarterback Joe Montana–never bet against either of them.

Inventory Cycle Has Run Its Course Harrison – ‘… This is the scenario I
have been predicting for months now.
• Double Dip Recession and the Obama 2011 Budget (February 2010):
The long and short is that – come Summer – the inventory cycle’s
thrust will have dissipated. And if companies are not hiring by this
time and consumer spending is not increasing more robustly, then
the state budgets, the strategic defaults and all of the rest of that
becomes a serious obstacle. In my view, more likely than not, this
will lead to another recession late in 2010 or in 2011. And nothing in
the President’s budget changes this outlook.
• The mindset will not change; a depressionary relapse may be
coming (March 2010): the inventory cycle’s impact on GDP growth
will attenuate. By the second half of 2010, inventories will not add
considerably to GDP.
• US GDP growth rate is unsustainable; recovery will fade (April 2010):
The inventory cycle is already starting to fade. That means weak 1 or
2% growth at best by Q4 2010. Unless job growth picks up
tremendously by the second half of the year, this recovery is in
trouble.

50 Random Facts That Make You Wonder What In The World Has Happened To America -
The Economic Collapse July 2, 2010 Our world is changing at a pace that is so
staggering these days that it can be really hard to fully grasp the significance of what we
are witnessing. Hopefully the collection of random facts below will help you to “connect the
dots” just a little bit. On one level, the facts below may not seem related. However, what
they all do have in common is that they show just how much the United States has
fundamentally changed. Do you ever just sit back and wonder what in the world has
happened to America? The truth is that the America that so many of us once loved so
much has been shattered into a thousand pieces. The “land of the free and the home of
the brave” has been transformed into a socialized Big Brother nanny state that is oozing
with corruption and has accumulated the biggest mountain of debt in the history of the
world. The greatest economic machine that the world has ever seen is falling apart before
our very eyes, and even when our politicians actually try to do something right (which is
quite rare) the end result is still a bunch of garbage. For those who still love this land (and
there are a lot of us) it is heartbreaking to watch America slowly die.

In just six months, the largest tax hikes in the history of America will take effect. They will hit
families and small businesses in three great waves on January 1, 2011:

First Wave: Expiration of 2001 and 2003 Tax Relief

In 2001 and 2003, the GOP Congress enacted several tax cuts for investors, small business
owners, and families. These will all expire on January 1, 2011:

Personal income tax rates will rise. The top income tax rate will rise from 35 to 39.6 percent
(this is also the rate at which two-thirds of small business profits are taxed). The lowest rate will
rise from 10 to 15 percent. All the rates in between will also rise. Itemized deductions and
personal exemptions will again phase out, which has the same mathematical effect as higher
marginal tax rates. The full list of marginal rate hikes is below:

- The 10% bracket rises to an expanded 15%


- The 25% bracket rises to 28%
- The 28% bracket rises to 31%
- The 33% bracket rises to 36%
- The 35% bracket rises to 39.6%

Higher taxes on marriage and family. The “marriage penalty” (narrower tax brackets for
married couples) will return from the first dollar of income. The child tax credit will be cut in half
from $1000 to $500 per child. The standard deduction will no longer be doubled for married
couples relative to the single level. The dependent care and adoption tax credits will be cut.

The return of the Death Tax. This year, there is no death tax. For those dying on or after
January 1 2011, there is a 55 percent top death tax rate on estates over $1 million. A person
leaving behind two homes and a retirement account could easily pass along a death tax bill to
their loved ones.

Higher tax rates on savers and investors. The capital gains tax will rise from 15 percent this
year to 20 percent in 2011. The dividends tax will rise from 15 percent this year to 39.6 percent in
2011. These rates will rise another 3.8 percent in 2013.

Second Wave: Obamacare

There are over twenty new or higher taxes in Obamacare. Several will first go into effect on
January 1, 2011. They include:

The “Medicine Cabinet Tax” Thanks to Obamacare, Americans will no longer be able to use
health savings account (HSA), flexible spending account (FSA), or health reimbursement (HRA)
pre-tax dollars to purchase non-prescription, over-the-counter medicines (except insulin).

The “Special Needs Kids Tax” This provision of Obamacare imposes a cap on flexible
spending accounts (FSAs) of $2500 (Currently, there is no federal government limit). There is
one group of FSA owners for whom this new cap will be particularly cruel and onerous: parents of
special needs children. There are thousands of families with special needs children in the United
States, and many of them use FSAs to pay for special needs education. Tuition rates at one
leading school that teaches special needs children in Washington, D.C. (National Child Research
Center) can easily exceed $14,000 per year. Under tax rules, FSA dollars can be used to pay for
this type of special needs education.

The HSA Withdrawal Tax Hike. This provision of Obamacare increases the additional tax on
non-medical early withdrawals from an HSA from 10 to 20 percent, disadvantaging them relative
to IRAs and other tax-advantaged accounts, which remain at 10 percent.

Third Wave: The Alternative Minimum Tax and Employer Tax Hikes

When Americans prepare to file their tax returns in January of 2011, they’ll be in for a nasty
surprise—the AMT won’t be held harmless, and many tax relief provisions will have expired. The
major items include:

The AMT will ensnare over 28 million families, up from 4 million last year. According to the
left-leaning Tax Policy Center, Congress’ failure to index the AMT will lead to an explosion of
AMT taxpaying families—rising from 4 million last year to 28.5 million. These families will have to
calculate their tax burdens twice, and pay taxes at the higher level. The AMT was created in
1969 to ensnare a handful of taxpayers.

Small business expensing will be slashed and 50% expensing will disappear. Small
businesses can normally expense (rather than slowly-deduct, or “depreciate”) equipment
purchases up to $250,000. This will be cut all the way down to $25,000. Larger businesses can
expense half of their purchases of equipment. In January of 2011, all of it will have to be
“depreciated.”

Taxes will be raised on all types of businesses. There are literally scores of tax hikes on
business that will take place. The biggest is the loss of the “research and experimentation tax
credit,” but there are many, many others. Combining high marginal tax rates with the loss of this
tax relief will cost jobs.

Tax Benefits for Education and Teaching Reduced. The deduction for tuition and fees will not
be available. Tax credits for education will be limited. Teachers will no longer be able to deduct
classroom expenses. Coverdell Education Savings Accounts will be cut. Employer-provided
educational assistance is curtailed. The student loan interest deduction will be disallowed for
hundreds of thousands of families.
Charitable Contributions from IRAs no longer allowed. Under current law, a retired person
with an IRA can contribute up to $100,000 per year directly to a charity from their IRA. This
contribution also counts toward an annual “required minimum distribution.” This ability will no
longer be there.

Investors get more gloomy & bearish We just had a very difficult three month stretch for
stocks. The S&P 500 fell 12% for the quarter as did NASDAQ. The Shanghai Composite,
China’s largest stock index, fell 22.9 in its local currency, the yuan. The MSCI EAFE Index
(foreign stocks) was down 14%. Given the negative news, it is not surprising that investors
are becoming more bearish on stocks. This chart from Bespoke is based on the weekly
Investors Intelligence survey, which is getting close to levels from a year ago. This is not
close the peak we reached in early 2009, but the mood is definitely more negative now:
[chart]

Double Dip on the Way There were many events contributing to yesterday’s sell-off, and
the most likely culprits around the globe included more protests in Greece, continued to
concerns about Europe at large, and a downward revision (due to a calculation error) of a
leading economic indicator reading in China for the month of April. But when it comes
down to it, our own economy has yet to stand on solid ground. While the recovery has
continued to be shaky at best, recent economic readings may be pointing to a double dip
recession. Yesterday’s batch of economic data seemed to be confirming that, as it brought
a very dismal reading on consumer confidence. June’s number stood at 52.9, far below
expectations of 62.5, and pointing to the consumers’ weariness about the job market, and
economic recovery in general. To go further, the previous reading for May was revised
downward, to 62.7 from 63.3. But the drop from May to June really sends the message
home: we’re not out of the woods yet. Earlier in the week, we saw personal savings rates
rise again, even while personal income growth was meager. Americans, despite bringing
home a little more cash, continued to save more for the expected rainy days, and have yet
to return to their spendthrift ways. After yesterday’s precipitous selling, one would expect
to see a bit of a bounce in today’s trading session. That wasn’t the case, however, as more
weak data continued to dampen economic hopes. Today’s culprit was the ADP private
sector job report. The report stated that private payroll gains were muted in June, with
only 13,000 jobs added – far less than the 60,000 expected by economists. While May’s
reading was revised slightly upwards (to 57,000 hires from previously reported 55,000),
today’s release does not bode well for the much anticipated report from the Bureau of
Labor Statistics due out on Friday. The non-farms payroll survey includes government
workers and has been inflated in recent months due to hiring for the 2010 Census …
[chart] …The June report, however, will reflect many of those workers being laid off in the
past month. In May, 431,000 jobs were added, but without support from temporary
government hires, economists are predicting job losses in June. Last week, consensus
estimates were for a loss of 70,000 jobs for the month. By yesterday, those estimates were
downgraded further, to 110,000. With the help of today’s ADP report, expectations have
continued to fall: economists now expect a reading of negative 125,000 …

Barron's: Why the Market Will Keep Sliding Perry D- Barron's has a nice summary of what
the future may hold in its "Up and Down Wall Street." It summarizes as well as anything
I've read recently where we're likely headed. Bugging the (stock) market is the increasingly
obvious disparity between what the Street's incorrigible cheerleaders see and prophesy
and what's actually happening in the real world...The double dip in housing may or may
not be a template of what's in store for the economy as a whole. But at the very least, it is
a precursor of other serious disappointments destined to feed the unease among the
jittery populace, which most emphatically includes investors.

It cites the predictions of SDK Captial's Dee Kessler:

--the massive fiscal and monetary stimulus so liberally applied in 2008-2009


is starting to run out of steam, with financial conditions tightening and
leading economic indicators pointing to a stretch of "anemic activity."

--"structural headwinds," such as public and private deleveraging, higher


taxes, greater regulation and trade tensions.

--the well-publicized woes of the European bloc, which accounts for 20% of
the world's GDP, as further evidence that the global economy, as he puts it,
is downshifting.

--The period of easy comparisons in corporate results, he says, is coming


to a close,

--"Although the fundamentals in the U.S., Europe and Japan are worse,"
Dee spots plenty of downside in emerging markets and doesn't fancy the
notion of decoupling.

--Come another financial crisis, "the only policy response left will be to
print money." Which, of course, is what the gold bugs are counting on and
why bullion has glistened so brightly.

That about sums up the outlook. The nice insight here is that anxiety over future economic
malaise -- and the additional money printing that'll be done to mask it -- might be a bigger
factor than current inflationary pressure behind the surge in gold prices.
In other words, for the deflation-believers: deflation today? Perhaps. But big-time inflation
tomorrow.

NY Times’ Krugman: We Are Entering The Third Depression Recessions are common;
depressions are rare. [Correction: we’re already in a depression].

Stocks: Once More Up, Then the Big Down Smith -The ingredients for a classic head and
shoulders topping pattern in the stock market are all present. That suggests one more rise
and then a massive grinding move down to 2009 lows. Officially, of course, everything's
peachy with the economy. Europe is fixed, China is booming, consumer confidence is
rising, and we are encouraged to resume our borrow and spend ways as the economy will
not "double-dip" into recession. The economy will not slide into another recession, we are
reassured constantly, even though roughly 80% of Americans don't think we ever left the
recessionary quicksand. Please see "Two Scoop Special": Double-Dip Recession
Guaranteed (May 21, 2010) for more … Exactly what drivers are there for future gains in
corporate profits? I can't think of any, short of Martians landing and going on a shopping
spree with gold they manufacture in their spacecraft. On the negative side, we have:

1. The rising dollar is a huge headwind to sales in the eurozone and elsewhere.
2. The low-hanging fruit of pushing the workforce to produce more output for the same
salary/wages have all been picked.
3. The inventory build-out is done for everything but the iPhone 4 and iPad.
4. So-called "fiscal austerity" (when did living within one's means become some sort of
brutual "austerity"? Talk abour propaganda!) in the eurozone and U.S. states will remove
tens of billions of dollars from corporate sales.
5. Global overcapacity is alive and well. There is overcapacity in everything manufactured
except the iPhone 4, and that will be in glut by 2011 as well.
6. Uncle Sam is not distributing trillions of dollars quite as freely. There seems to be some
glimmer of awareness that there could be consequences of squandering trillions of
borrowed dollars on essentially worthless projects such as occupying Iraq, inflating the
housing market by socializing the entire mortgage market, propping up Fannie Mae,
Freddie Mac and FHA, etc.
7. Housing is rolling over now that the socialized mortgage market has been tentatively
allowed to go off life-support (it is wheezing and turning blue in the face, not signs of
vibrant health).
8. There is no pricing power anywhere once stimulus-goosed demand declines to organic
demand (flat to down) …

GREECE UNDER NEWS BLACKOUT: Here’s How An Eyewitness Describes


Today’s Riots There are reports this morning of violent protests/riots

the situation. Target Tehran? Israel, US ‘prepare to attack Iran’
Reports are circulating that the U.S is amassing a greater military
presence in the Middle East. The alleged build up is also rumoured to
involve the Israeli use of Saudi Arabian air space. It’s thought by
some to be in preparation for an attack on Iran. Kucinich: ‘We are
losing our nation to lies about the necessity of war’ In Afghanistan,
corruption is rife. It is so abundant, in fact, that a senior US lawmaker
declared on Monday that she’d be freezing $3.9 billion in Afghan aid
dollars until the situation is addressed. Turkey bans Israeli military
flight from its airspace as freeze deepens Turkey has banned an
Israeli military flight from its airspace in apparent retaliation for
Israel’s interception of the Free Gaza flotilla last month, in which nine
pro-Palestinian Turkish activists were killed.

Momentum Book Update: The Market Is a Mess and the Long Bond Is
About to Break Out … Not only do us swing traders have to fight the urge
to chase price action up, but lay off the keyboard trying to catch falling
knives in the relative strength stocks which are holding up. If you tried to
buy support in your favorite names this week, you got your hands cut up.
I’ll continue to rely on the understanding of my own emotions as they have
served me well. When we opened higher on Monday morning I knew I was
in the right place, cash, as the market was just way overbought. If you
bought most relative strength names last week, by the end of this week you
were well underwater. So where do we go from here? I’ve got no clue, the
market is a mess, the charts are a mess, and the long bond is about to
break out. If that happens all bets are off, we could see an “event”. If the
smart money is lining up at the exits and moving into bonds, there’s a
good chance they see something coming down the pipe …

SUITING UP FOR A POST-DOLLAR WORLD John Browne ‘The global financial crisis is
playing out like a slow-moving, highly predicable stage play. In the current scene, Western
governments are caught between the demands of entitled welfare beneficiaries and the
anxiety of bondholders who fear they will be stuck with the bill. As the crisis reaches an
apex, prime ministers and presidents are forced into a Sophie's choice between social
unrest and bankruptcy. But with the "Club Med" economies set to fall like dominoes, the
US Treasury market is not yet acting the role we would have anticipated. Our argument
has always been that the US benefits from its reserve-currency status, allowing it to
accumulate unsustainable debts for an unusually long period without the immediate
repercussions of inflation or higher borrowing costs. But this false sense of security may
be setting us up for a truly monumental crash. There is fresh evidence that time is running
out for the dollar-centric global monetary order. In fact, central banks outside the US are
already making swift and discrete preparation for a post-dollar era.To begin, the People's
Bank of China has just this week decided to permit a wider trading range between the
yuan and the dollar. This is the first step toward ending the infernal yuan-dollar peg. While
the impetus behind this abrupt change remains a mystery, I have a sneaking suspicion
that, as my colleague Neeraj Chaudhary explained in his commentary last week, the
nationwide labor strikes were a prime motivator. In response to the 2008 credit crunch, the
Fed printed so many dollars that the People's Bank of China was forced to drive Chinese
inflation into double digits to maintain the peg. The pain has fallen on China's workers,
who have seen their wages stagnate while prices for everything from milk to apartments
have skyrocketed. This week's move indicates that, regardless of its own policy motives,
the Communist Party can no longer afford to keep pace with the dollar's devaluation. The
result will be a shift in wealth from America to China, which may trigger a long-anticipated
run on the dollar, while creating investment opportunities in China. Just days before
China's announcement, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev rattled his monetary sabre by
telling the press of his intention to lead the world toward a new monetary order based on a
broad basket of currencies. Giving strength to his claim, the Central Bank of Russia
announced that it would be adding Canadian and Australian dollars to its reserves for the
first time. Analysts suggest that the IMF may follow suit. While Russia floats in the limbo
between hopeless kleptocracy and emerging economy, it does possess vast natural
resources and a toe-hold in both Europe and Asia. In other words, it will be a strategically
important partner for China as it tries to cast off dollar hegemony. Speaking of Europe, the
major powers there are moving toward a post-dollar world by rejecting President Obama's
calls to jump on America's debt grenade. The prescriptions coming from Washington
translate loosely to: our airship is on fire, so why don't you light a candle under yours so
that we may crash and burn together. Given that dollar strength is largely seen as a
function of euro weakness (as Andrew Schiff discussed in our most recent newsletter,
debt troubles in the eurozone's fringe economies have created a distorted confidence in
the greenback. However, as you might imagine, Europe has higher priorities than being
America's fall guy. Led by an ever-bolder Germany, the European states are wisely
choosing not to throw themselves on our funeral pyre, but to wisely clean house in
anticipation of China's rise. In another ominous sign for the dollar, the Financial Times
reported Wednesday that after two decades as net sellers of gold, foreign central banks
have now become net buyers. What's more, more than half of central bank officials
surveyed by UBS didn't think the dollar would be the world's reserve in 2035. Among the
predicted replacements were Asian currencies and the euro, but - by far - the favorite was
gold. This is supported by Monday's revelation by the Saudi central bank that it had
covertly doubled its gold reserves, just about a year after China made a similar admission.
There is no reason to assume these are isolated incidents, or that the covert trade of
dollars for gold doesn't continue. To the contrary, this is compelling evidence that foreign
governments are outwardly supporting the status quo while quietly preparing for the
dollar's almost-inevitable devaluation. What people like Paul Krugman believe to be a
return to medieval economics may, in fact, be the wave of the future. In peacetime,
hardened troops will likely tolerate a blowhard general for an extended period; but when
the artillery opens up with live ordnance, an ineffectual leader risks rapid demotion. The
newspapers are now riddled with hints that foreign governments have lost faith in
Washington and the dollar reserve system. It seems to me only natural that after a century
of war, inflation, and socialism, the next hundred years would belong to those people who
hold the timeless values of hard money and fiscal prudence. Unfortunately, our
policymakers are not those people.’

Russell has grown very vocally bearish in recent months. Earlier this
year, Russell warned that the stock market was once again becoming
grossly overvalued despite its relentless new highs. Pragmatic
Capitalism June 24, 2010 Richard Russell has grown very vocally
bearish in recent months. Earlier this year, Russell warned that the
stock market was once again becoming grossly overvalued despite its
relentless new highs. He has maintained that the bear market never
ended and that the world is far too indebted to exit the bear market.
He also believes the bear will not end until all fiat currencies have
failed. Although I disagree with him on many aspects of the micro I
agree with his larger macro outlook. This bear market is not over.
The secular bear market lives on. Mr. Russell thinks we might be on
the verge of a terrible collapse:
“We’re now in the process of building one of the largest tops in
stock market history. The result, I think, will be the most disastrous
bear market since the ‘30s, and maybe worse.
Question: “What could possibly be behind such a bear market?” you
ask. “The stock market is stirring up optimism on a weekly, if not daily
basis, by not falling apart.”
Answer: This is the “rest” or “dead zone” I was talking about. Bear
markets don’t conclude in a day, a week or a month. Months will go
by, often adding to the bulls’ optimism.I think the key element behind
this great bear market will be the complete destruction of all fiat
currencies. This has been a long time coming. Fiat currencies are
“wealth” created by man. They are created without sacrifice, without
labor, without risk, and without sweat. Basically they are an immoral
device, created by secretive bankers. If you watch the figures
carefully, you’ll note the subtle deterioration. For instance, the
advance-decline ratio, although up slightly for the week, had a
relatively weak performance with the Dow up several hundred points
over the course of the week. And we broke the trendline in May (see
the chart below showing the cumulative advance-decline line for

Market Outlook: Bearish Background to Bullish Storyline Sean Hannon:


‘The last two weekly market commentaries have discussed how the
underlying trend of the market is now bearish and all rallies should be used
to sell stocks and reduce risks. With nearly every news outlet spouting the
bullish storyline, these articles served as an outline of a disciplined
investment strategy. Those who followed the outline have done well as the
Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow), S&P 500, and NASDAQ each declined
over 5% since my initial warning. With the Dow still stuck below the
psychologically important 10,000 level and all three major U.S. markets
trading beneath their 200-day moving averages (MA), the bearish backdrop
is clear. Even if many are still looking for a rally, we should understand that
the primary trend is lower. Instead of focusing on how high prices will rally,
we should instead consider how much further prices can fall …’

Why To Question the 2010 Stock Market Rally [Why To Question the 2010
Stock Market Rally – Web Site Archived with Charts Click Here - In the
past year, we've written a lot about the similarity between the rally of
early 1930 and the one we had through April of this year. The early
1930 rally came after the market had fallen nearly 50% in the fall of
1929. The spring 1930 rally took the market up nearly 50% again, to a
level that was only about 20% below the previous peak. That rally, of
course, was also the biggest sucker's rally in history. After the market
peaked in April 1930, it crashed again, eventually ending up down 89%
from the 1929 high and more than 80% from the 1930 high. The market
did not reach the 1930 high again for another quarter of a century. The rally
that recently ended in April 2010 came after a crash that was actually
slightly more severe than the 1929 crash (53% versus 48%). It took the
market up nearly 80% from the low! The recent rally also lasted longer
than the 1930 rally did--a year, as opposed to 6 months … ]

DEBT POISED TO OVERTAKE GDP Key Indicators of a New Depression

the government can or will do about it except lie. The Folly of Blindly
Trusting the Government

‘What Does China Want?’ They want to speak to Rosanne Rosanna Danna,
of course! ‘Asian markets tumble on fears over Hungary’ …Riiiiight!
Hungary’s the thing! … Rosanne Rosanna Danna, formerly of SNL fame
wanted in Asia to chime in with what her mama always used to say, ‘ It’s
always something ‘ . Of course, it matters little to the frauds on wall street
what the something is said to be since the reality is … ‘This is a global
depression. This is a secular bear market in a global depression. This was
a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a
typically manipulated bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great
regularity that the wall street frauds and insiders commission and sell into.
This is a typical wall street churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud

of other instances, that I’m getting substantial ‘attacks’ vis-à-vis my
internet connection which has slowed dramatically these posts. I don’t
think the interference is either accidental nor just coincidental but
consistent with corrupt defacto bankrupt america’s critics of which I am
one and not alone in that regard – slowing, militating against the
devastating truth about america.) Europe is Heading for a Depression
Despite a nearly-$1 trillion rescue operation, financial conditions in the
eurozone continue to deteriorate. All the gauges of market stress are
edging upwards and credit default swaps (CDS) spreads have widened to
levels not seen since the weekend of the emergency euro-summit. Key
Indicators of a New Depression With the mainstream media focusing on the
country’s leveling unemployment rate, improving retail sales, and nascent
housing recovery, one might think that the US government has
successfully navigated the economy through recession and growth has
returned. Get Ready for a Double Dip … but many warning flags point
towards significant deterioration in the U.S. and global economy going
forward and so I think that by the end of the year or early 2011, we could
very well be facing a new leg down in the world’s economic situation … [I’d
say too optimistic since, to reiterate: This is a global depression. This is a
secular bear market in a global depression. This was a manipulated bull
(s***) cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated
bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall
street frauds and insiders commission and sell into. This is a typical wall
street churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud as in prior crashes.]

european central banks intervened to shore up the ever more worthless


euro, buying into that fraudulent wall street b*** s*** story that that ‘s a
good thing, rallying stocks off their lows. It is amazing how dumb europe
has become so quickly. An exception is what I believe was Germany’s
steps against derivatives, which market according to a derivatives trader
on the radio this day is a $40 trillion market (missed his name). To reiterate
as applicable to yet another fraudulent scheme previously stated, said
market is paper on paper moving around and generating commissions at
lightning computerized speed but adding no real value in real economic
terms; again, the analogy of termites eating away at the (nation’s)
foundation is apposite. As such, that money has to come from some real
place and hence, the ever more frequent and larger crashes we are seeing.
Don’t forget that the worthless paper from previous such fraudulent
schemes now marked to anything is still out there in a magnitude some
have placed in the hundreds of trillions.

The Worst Money Supply Plunge Since The Depression Means A Double
Dip Is Now A ‘Virtual Certainty’ The stock of U.S. money as measured by
‘M3′ money supply fell to $13.9 trillion from $14.2 trillion during the three
months ending in April. [ This is still an extraordinarily high level but … I
don’t buy it. I believe the printing presses have been working overtime to
pump out ever more worthless fiat currency and with the many trillions of
worthless fraudulent paper still out there and marked to anything. I further
believe the same is being surreptitiously used to supplant the fraudulent
paper, the consequences of which will be devastating, of course, as is
invariably so in depressions in any event. This scenario would also mean
huge fraud accomplis. ] Fiat Money Supply Contracting at Great

Forecasts from Dent, Napier, and then Prechter: Depression is Imminent


The Dow Jones Industrial Average will go down to at least 1000, most
likely to below 777 which was the starting point of its mania back in
August 1982, and quite likely drop below 400 at one or more times
during the bear market.

Dow Theorist Richard Russell: Sell Everything, You Won’t Recognize


America By The End Of The Year Business Insider | “Pul – leeze, get out
of stocks now, and I don’t give a damn whether you have paper losses

The frauds on wall street et als should be criminally prosecuted, jailed,


fined and disgorgement imposed. If that were so, they wouldn’t be worrying
about who wins / loses since those who fraudulently play, invariably would
(and should) pay. If they’re not prosecuted, everyone loses.

POST MORTEM AND REVIEW Ricky:


A post mortem is in order. The elements of this worldwide con game are
remarkably simple, not complex at all. Apparently you only need a few
things to make a mockery of the entire global economic system, and big
banks garnered these few important things through “regulatory capture”:
1) Unregulated, unenforced rules (particularly for derivatives)
2) license to “mark to model” (assign your own values to your assets)
3) ability to peg present value to irrational expected future returns (based
on unlimited, exponential growth)
4) infinite leverage (no effective requirements for reserve capital in
unregulated “shadow” markets)
5) massive size, so that the bank is "too big to fail"
6) non-transparency and non-accountability.

SELL IN MAY AND GO AWAY!


THE FORECASTS:
Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011
The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between
2010 and 2012
Russell Napier is the author of the book “Anatomy of the Bear”, a professor
at the Edinburgh Business School and a consultant to CLSA Ltd. which is
one of the top research houses in Asia. Napier’s research indicates (and I
paraphrase) that: The S&P 500 will Decline to 400 by 2014 (the Dow 30 to
3800)
The S&P 500 will then undergo a major crash that will see U.S. equity
prices bottom at almost 50% below current levels (i.e. to 400 or less; the
Dow 30 to 3800 or less) sometime around 2014 as Tobin’s “q” drops to 0.3
signaling the end of the bear market, as it has done at the end of the four
largest U.S. market declines in 1921, 1932, 1949 and 1982.
U.S. Treasury Sales Collapse Leading to End of U.S. Dollar as Reserve

including “Elliott Wave Principle” (1978) in which he predicted the super
bull market of the 1980s; “At the Crest of the Tidal Wave – A Forecast of the
Great Bear Market” (1995) in which he predicted a slow motion economic
earthquake, brought about by a great asset mania, that would register 11
on the financial Richter scale causing a collapse of historic proportions;
and “Conquer the Crash: You can Survive and Prosper in a Deflationary
Depression” (2002) in which he described the economic cataclysm that we
are just beginning to experience and advised how to position one’s self
financially during that period of time.

TED OLSON SEEKING TO OVERTURN CALIFORNIA'S PROPOSITION 8,


WHICH LIMITS MARRIAGE TO A MAN AND A WOMAN. After shilling
for the corrupt u.s. government as solicitor general, maybe he just
wanted to go straight [Just Kidding!]. There is no immunity, judicial or
otherwise for criminal acts. Moreover, there is no sovereign immunity
for non-governmental acts as would include involvement in the
illegal drug and related crimes, ie., bribery, etc., and the supreme
court has so held against foreign nations in the context of the RICO
statute but in my RICO case olson the liar would shill otherwise, not
that he really had to worry in light of the pervasively corrupt and
wastefully costly federal courts which should be abolished.
NATION NEWS DIGEST: J.P. Morgan Chase posts $4.8 billion profit
(Washington Post) Yet another ‘Come on’ day on fraudulent wall street!
This time it’s the unexpected jump in continuing claims for unemployment,
yesterday the downward revision to previous market-frothing retail sales
report and poor retail sales and plunge in mortgage applications and then
there’s the fed minutes pointing to extended bad economy. Then there’s
also now the ‘goldfinger factor’ as in goldman’s middle finger. When you
defraud for many billions, paying $550 million is chump change. Goldman
shares rocketed 5.5% in after-hours trading. No wonder Goldman called it
"the right outcome for our firm shareholders and clients." (Absent
prosecutions, they’ll continue to do what comes natural to frauds on wall
street). Great opportunity to sell / take profits since much worse, also
called reality beyond the b*** s***, to come. Then there’s also the bad but
typical news; viz., previous retail sales, mortgage apps, economic outlook
down, and continuing claims for unemployment, deficits, trade / budget,
up. (Just in: 7-16-10 Poll – only 43% of Americans approve of the
Afganistan War, down from 52% in January, 2010)

Pearlstein: Can regulation beget innovation? (Washington Post) I believe


the more seminal question to be, whether american companies, consistent
with overall american decline and corruption in so pervasive a fashion, are
capable of or inclined toward real innovation where enhancements to
productivity, as well as greater profits, is the consequence as desired.
Certainly there has been ‘innovation’ by the wall street frauds in the types
of (ultimately worthless / fraudulent) paper and high frequency trade
programs enhancing their bottom-lines but little else; and, those cutting
edge ‘weapons of mass destruction’ produced or financed (israel) by
america are hardly productive in the economic sense but innovative and
profitable in the short run, and unwise and nation-bankrupting in the longer
run which we’re in right now!

Goldman agrees to pay $550M (Washington Post) My own skepticism


based on the disparate numbers (the size of the frauds compared to
the relatively small fine) and as set forth in the initial reactions /
headlines that immediately follow has been allayed somewhat by an
interview on NBR with former SEC head Ruder who explained the very
narrow scope of the settlement which in no way shelters goldman
from the huge frauds they have perpetrated. So long as this is true in
fact as well as law and in application, the SEC deserves praise as has
been so under the auspices of ‘Mother Mary’ who appears to have the
gonads lacking in prior SEC heads. The frauds on wall street et als
should be criminally prosecuted, jailed, fined, and disgorgement
imposed.

Ex-Justice official: CIA may have exceeded limits (Washington Post) Wee
doggies! This sounds like the stuff that SNL Weekend Update ‘Really’
skits are made of; also fitting into that list of queries as, ‘Is the Pope
Catholic?’, ‘Do bears **** in the woods?’, etc.. Come on! Wake up!
This is the kind of complicit cover-up / corruption found betwixt and
between all three branches of the u.s. government leading ineluctably
to america’s current decline and to which I’ve attested under penalty
of perjury in the context of the RICO litigation [

Wall Street Is Laundering Drug Money And Getting Away With It Zach
Carter | Wachovia was moving money behind literally tons of cocaine
from violent drug cartels. It wasn’t an accident.

There is really no way to rationalize or attempt to justify what america is /


has become since they have with open eyes chosen this contra-
indicated course of ineluctable decline, from illegal wars, to war
crimes, to backing war criminal nations as israel, to huge frauds, to
war profiteering, to illicit drug trafficking and money laundering, and
this list goes on and on …:

(Previously) I’d say this alito vs. wobama is a tempest in a teapot inasmuch
as alito is more than just a lightweight, hack, liar, fraud etc., as set forth in
the comments. alito is a criminal who should have served / should be
serving time in prison for obstruction of justice, bribery, among other RICO
violations. To alito, drug money is as green as corporate money and worth
his vote as well. In addition to being an inept [I looked in on the one mob
case he had brought, bungled, lost (accidently on purpose?) since I was
suing some mob-connected under RICO and the court (I had known /
previously met outside of court the judge Ackerman through a client) was
absolute bedlam and a total joke since incompetent corrupt alito brought in
all 20 mob defendants (rather than prosecute one or a few to flip them first)
who feigning illness had beds/cots in the courtroom along with their moans
during testimony and had the jury in stitches)] and corrupt (see below and
particularly the summary provided to the FBI under penalty of perjury [

attorney.

You’re naïve to think that the so-called supreme court is any different from
the rest of the meaningfully lawless and pervasively corrupt american
‘system’. I knew well an accomplished trial lawyer, fellow american college
of trial lawyers / and a bar examiner, who pondered from time to time
becoming a judge “so he’d never have to work again” – his words.

Some comments on alito…all appropriate:

Manchurian Candidates: Supreme Court allows China and others unlimited

down to a three-way battle between China, Saudi Arabia and Goldman
Sachs. Call For Immediate Arrest of 5 Supreme Court Justices for
Treason Gordon Duff | The bloated corpse we are creating in
Washington is emitting a stench we can no longer abide. The
aforesaid would be shocking to anyone without a modicum of
knowledge of the reality of pervasive corruption within the u.s. courts
themselves and america generally, including all three branches of the
u.s. government.

Ron Paul: After ‘CIA coup,’ agency ‘runs military’ US House Rep. Ron Paul
says the CIA has has in effect carried out a “coup” against the US
government, and the intelligence agency needs to be “taken out.” I
also personally believe there has been a defacto coup d’etat which
has manifested in various substantial, blatant, brazened frauds, ie.,
wall street, missing 360 tons of $100 bills in Iraq, war profiteering, etc.,
without any fear of prosecution, and of course concomitant decline for
u.s. as the treasury is looted. But I also believe its scope is beyond
just the CIA with many complicit within the corrupted 3 branches of
u.s. government (fed judges, us attorneys, illegal system, etc.) plus
the military and private big money, ie., Goldman Sachs / wall street
men, etc., among other organized crime. america is defacto bankrupt
in every way!

Rendition: Where the War on Terror Meets the War on Drugs Patrick
Henningsen | It’s time to ditch the policies we have come to tolerate for
decades before they consume what is left of our moral core. I’ve
experienced the corrupt inter-relationship of the government (all 3
corrupt branches) and the illegal drug trade / obstruction of justice /
bribery first hand, particularly the courts / u.s. attorneys offices (ie.,
alito – now u.s. supreme court justice – quid pro quo for his
complicity / cover-up), feds; see immediately after article excerpt for
links / summary.

…“Evidence points to aircraft – familiarly known as “torture taxis” –


used by the CIA to move captives seized in its kidnapping or
“extraordinary rendition” operations through Gatwick and other
airports in the EU being simultaneously used for drug distribution in
the Western hemisphere. A Gulfstream II jet aircraft N9875A
identified by the British Government and the European Parliament as
being involved in this traffic crashed in Mexico…” In 2004, another
torture taxi crashed in a field in Nicaragua with a ton of cocaine
aboard… Mexican soldiers found ..132 bags containing 3.3 metric
tons of cocaine. The origination of the Gulfstream’s flight is
unknown but it was destined for Cancun when it crash landed.
Again, here is the important point: that same Gulf Stream II was one
of the very same planes chartered to the CIA for the rendition of
suspected terrorists prisoners. Gulf Stream II crashed in Mexico with 3
tons of cocaine on board ..it should not be surprising that this illegal
practice of rendition has in some part, been used as a well-run
smokescreen for another borderless illegal operation- an extremely
lucrative international transfer and delivery of cash and
narcotics.,,These flights are not subject to regular customs checks,
inspections or normal regulations as they move seamlessly between
destinations in the US, Britain, Europe, Middle East, Central Asia,
Cuba and possibly through US bases in Turkey, Greece and
Morocco…
Corrupt u.s. courts / judges: Their lifetime plush appointments should be
abolished, which corrupt entities are unheard of in productive
societies as China, Japan, etc.. Time to abolish these drags on society
and eliminate their lifetime stipends and costly bureaucracies. Rules
of law mean nothing to these typically corrupt americans. Most,
including sam alito of the u.s. supreme court, concerning drug money
laundering and obstruction of justice in the 3rd circuit ( also maryanne
trump barry who covered-up drug money laundering through her
brother’s casinos in a civil RICO case) should have gone to or belong
in jail. Contrary to popular belief, they do it for the money, personal
money, big, cash, untraceable money. The fog of war is great for such
things (360 tons $100 bills flown into Iraq and missing, etc.).

power in Tel Aviv has been afflicted with a variant of mad cow
disease; otherwise, how could it be so cruel to unleash such a beastly
raid on the "Mavi Marmara," the Turkish flagship of a flotilla carrying
medical and humanitarian supplies to the hapless people of Gaza
Strip?

Lunacy? Keep in mind that this country is run and controlled by lunatics.
Our press government and military seem to take their orders from Israel.
Isarel wants to be known as a pack of “mad dogs. Do we want “mad dogs”
controlling us?

Here we see a bunch of phony accusations against Iran just like we did in the run up to
the bogus wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and now Pakistan. The boy has cried wold ten
thousand times. It’s time to identify the “lunatics” and kindly take away the car keys. If
you won’t let your friends drive drunk, why do we let a bunch of “lunatic” enemies run
this place.

Lunacy it would be.

But it is also to their great credit that the Iranians have not made their own
threats.

Everyone knows there are 3 WMD threats, Nuclear Biological and chemical.
The scariest of which is Biological.

Any attack done under the threat of immediate biological retaliation would
deter only the insane.

Watch out america home of the insane, home of the leaders who want an
80% population reduction.

General McChrystal’s Burning Contempt for the Puppet Obama The farce
that is the war in Afghanistan is coming apart at the seams. General
Stanley McChrystal’s sharp comments about Obama, Biden, and the
administration published by Rolling Stone are not so much about
disrespect, as the script-reading corporate media talking heads would
have it, but rather about a policy in disarray in Afghanistan.

Gaza blockade illegal, must be lifted — UN rights official Israeli blockade


of Gaza unsustainable: White House US Jewish opinion and the
‘Beinart moment’ The controversial book, The Israel Lobby, in which
the political scientists, John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, argued
that US foreign policy has been hijacked by organized Zionism went
strangely unnoticed by the leading journal of American intellectual
opinion, the New York Review of Books. Doubts Grow Over Israel’s
Value as U.S. Ally Jim Lobe | The notion is that Israel and its actions
have since the Cold War increasingly become a “strategic liability” to
U.S. interests in the region.

In 1948, U.S. Secretary of Defense James Forrestal, an opponent of the


creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, warned that, even though failure to
go along with the Zionists might cost President Truman the states of New
York, Pennsylvania, and California, it was about time that somebody
should pay some consideration to whether we might not lose the United
States. Mr. Forrestal was absolutely correct! Isn’t that exactly what’s
happened to defacto bankrupt america in intractable decline.

The yardarm is the remedy Dozens of our friends and comrades, of


wonderful compassionate activists are dead and wounded in the pirate
attack in the high seas on humanitarian aid boats. This is a dreadful crime
that will forever be remembered and should be punished. The Israeli pirates
attacked the humanitarian aid Freedom Flotilla in the international waters
over 150 km out of their territorial waters. The boats carried no arms; the
participants strictly adhered to Ghandian mode by asking the Greek and
Cyprus authorities to search the boats to avoid later claims that they were
armed.

Paul Craig Roberts: Government Abandoned Vietnam POWs Kurt Nimmo |


John McCain worked overtime to make sure Vietnam POWs never came
home. I think the even bigger story vis-à-vis mccain is:
http://www.albertpeia.com/heroenot.htm ‘Did you know that that so-called
"american heroe" john mccain was referred to by his fellow pows in
Vietnam as something akin to the "songbird" inasmuch as he was
constantly "singing" to his Viet-Cong captors to curry favor and better
treatment? This has been documented with authority by Colonel David
Hackworth. The same violates military code/protocol (other soldiers have
been court-martialed for far less) click Here, Here. [
http://www.albertpeia.com/hackworth.htm ] But, you see, this covered up
scenario, compromizing the false facade of far less than a heroe, is exactly
what a criminal (lie of a) nation as america loves and encourages (get
everyone's hands dirty so no-one dares to rectify same, ie., bush, sr.,
clinton, bush, jr.). That is, "toe the (corrupt, propagandized) line", become a
criminal, or be exposed, prosecuted, and/or ruined; and, hasn't anyone
asked how "wall street" has been "spared the spotlight" (and even was
accorded protective legislation from their criminal culpability) and focus of
inquiry, attention, and prosecution despite being the primary beneficiaries
financial and otherwise of these scams (you know the wall street motto,
"churn and earn"; huge conflicts of interest if not outright fraud)…’

"What this means is that Neanderthals are not totally extinct. In some of us,
they live on," Paabo … With regard to that extinction thing, I’d say
they’re still working on it (ultimately, decades, extinction, the
distinction, without a difference). Actually, prior to studying the
compelling subject of Biological Anthropology (Michael Park text), I
too had some misconceptions about the group known as Neandertals
(recent spelling drops the ‘h’) and actually mis-referenced same by the
stereotypical image of members of said clade even as the debate
continues as to whether they are within the species homo sapiens or a
separate species. I believe these to be distinctions without important
differences, so humble the origins and evolution of man truly are.
Parenthetically, I wonder what that anthropological scientist Heidi
Klum thinks on the subject.

Previously I wrote:
FOUND: MISSING LINK BETWEEN APES AND MAN.... These stories, and
the many like it, are old news and I subscribe to the more studied view
that there is no “missing link” per se and in my view they are
distinctions without significant differences. I previously wrote:

To Learn More About From Whence Man Came, This Link's For You

[To the Professor at the beginning of the course]

10-5-09 Postscript: Professor *****,


I felt compelled to thank you again for the add; not to curry your favor but
indeed to express profound thanks inasmuch as this is probably the last
formal course at a formal educational institution I'll ever take; and among
the most important. While I had bought at discount a library-discarded 1993
Anthropology by Embers text, though meaning to read same never quite
got to it. I am astounded by the substantial amount of time involved in the
evolutionary process, not that I ever stopped to think about it, and one
must come away with the sense of 'and all that...for this?'. This course
should be required curriculum along with psychology, sociology, etc., but
probably won't be owing to what is, as it should be, a very humbling
educational experience for any member of the human race.
Regards,
Al Peia

[Interestingly, my intuitive (but unstudied) thoughts prior to closer


examination of the compelling subject of Biological Anthropology
remain what I believe to be the correct scenario. Specifically, very
simply stated, for the most part, the more “enlightened” (but not by
much; by mutation, accident, luck, intervention, etc.) left the
unvarying confines of their Sub-Saharan origins, experienced diverse
new environs, challenges, etc., experienced what has been described
(by neuroscientists, psychologists, etc.) as neurogenesis in varying
degrees and forms thereby over time, which trait was selected for and
is consistent with the purported multi-regional evolutionary model
which does not overtly contradict ultimately, initial African origins.
Races, sub-species, missing links, etc., are subsumed in this very
humbling and sorrowful tale of the “dawn of man”.]

(Washington Post, July 13, 2010) Without diminishing in any way the
seriousness of the crime, this result is the direct consequence of the
growing global recognition of the pervasiveness of corruption in
american courts, state and federal, and america generally; so much
so, that said corrupt american courts cannot be relied on anywhere,
anytime. Indeed, my own sampling, though hardly random to be
candid, is 5 for 5 (new jersey, new york, connecticut, virginia,
