The Good Guys Are NOT Coming To Save Us

The Good Guys Are NOT Coming To Save Us

A lot of Americans know that the US government is out of control. Anyone who has cared enough to study the US Constitution even a little knows this. Still, very few of these people are taking any significant action, and largely because of one error: They are waiting for “the good guys” to show up and fix things. Some think that certain groups of politicians will pull it together and fix things, or that one magnificent politician will ride in to fix things. Others think that

Deutsche Bank FICC Tumbles 17%, Worst Q2 Since The Financial Crisis

Deutsche Bank FICC Tumbles 17%, Worst Q2 Since The Financial Crisis

Back on July 16, in an attempt to boost its flailing stock which just weeks earlier hit an all time low, Deutsche Bank reported preliminary results that were better than analysts had expected. It saved the not soo good news for its official earnings release earlier this morning, when the biggest German bank reported that revenue from FICC, or trading of fixed-income, currency and commodities, traditionally a bank's most profitable segment, tumbled 17% from a year earlier to €

Ted Butler: New Hope For Higher Silver Prices - How silver's oppressor may end up being its savi

Precious metals analyst Ted Butler returns to the podcast this week to discuss the long-suffering silver price. Will the beatings continue? Or is there finally reason to believe that, after seven painful years of languishing, silver may finally see a brighter future? Butler predicts a turning point is nigh. And ironically, he thinks silver's savior will be the same culprit responsible for keeping the price suppressed for all these years: Every time we’ve had a rally in the la

Banking Testimony – Treasury Secretary Mnuchin Discusses “Too Big” and 21st Century “Glass Steagall”

Sip slowly, this explainer was hard to write. There is a considerable amount of perplexed frustration following on the heels of Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin testifying to the Senate Banking Committee earlier today and specifically saying: 02:20 Glass-Steagall? “we do not support a separation of banks from investment banks, we think that would have a very significant problem on the financial markets, on the economy, on liquidity; and we think that there is proper things

Ron Paul Warns That When The “Biggest Bubble In The History Of Mankind” Bursts It Could “Cut The Sto

Ron Paul Warns That When The “Biggest Bubble In The History Of Mankind” Bursts It Could “Cut The Sto

When this bubble finally bursts, will we witness the biggest stock market crash in U.S. history? “The bigger they come, the harder they fall” is a well used phrase, but I think that it is very appropriate in this case. From a low of 6,443.27 on March 6th, 2009, we have seen the Dow nearly quadruple in value since the last financial crisis. It has been a remarkable run, and it has lasted far longer than virtually any of the experts anticipated. But what goes up must come d

America, The Insolvent: A reckoning is due. One the elites are already readying for.

Watching the world these days, I’m experiencing the same fury that rises up from my gut when the driver in the car ahead me is weaving drunkenly, endangering everyone on the road. Fury is a normal and rational human response when threatened with unnecessary harm. Women who are groped (or worse) by a disgusting predator like Harvey Weinstein, pensioners whose funds are stolen by Wall Street shysters, everyone who is being fleeced by corporations in search of a few extra dollar

Trade War Provides Perfect Cover For The Elitist Engineered Global Reset

Trade War Provides Perfect Cover For The Elitist Engineered Global Reset

Over the past several months, I have been examining the underlying or hidden motivations behind the currently expanding global trade war, including the impressive level of cognitive dissonance surrounding the issue. The political left doesn't seem to have an intelligent grasp of economic issues in the slightest. I'm not seeing any critical discussion from leftist media outlets or pundits on fiscal uncertainties, and the only reaction that is common from them is that they hop

The Global Reset Will Come Like A Thief In The Night

The Global Reset Will Come Like A Thief In The Night

As the world edges closer to the next crisis, today the man who has become legendary for his predictions on QE and historic moves in currencies, told King World News that the global reset will come like a thief in the night. Where have all the dollars gone? Long time passing Where have all the dollars gone? Long time ago Where have all the dollars gone? Uncle Sam has spent them everyone When will he ever learn? When will he ever learn? The Global Reset Is Coming Egon von G

Some Of The 'Most Systemically Important Banks' In The World Are Tumbling

Some Of The 'Most Systemically Important Banks' In The World Are Tumbling

Since the Federal Reserve hiked rates, "big" US banks have dramatically underperformed "small" US banks, continuing a trend that has been going on since February... But it's broader than that this "big" bank blow-up is global. The stock prices of 16 of the most 'Systemically Important Financial Institutions' (SIFIs) in the world are now in bear market territory (down by 20% or more from their recent highs in dollar terms); and as the Financial Times reports, this has caused I

The Fed Is "Living Dangerously" - The Great Financial Crisis "Will Be Eclipsed"

Since Hayek’s time, monetary policy, particularly in America, has evolved away from targeting production and discouraging savings by suppressing interest rates, towards encouraging consumption through expanding consumer finance. American consumers are living beyond their means and have commonly depleted all their liquid savings. But given the variations in the cost of consumer finance (between 0% car loans and 20% credit card and overdraft rates), consumers are generally inse
