Gulf-Times... China’s credit-to-GDP gap reached 30.1% in the first quarter of 2016, its highest level ever and far above the 10% level thought to present a risk to a country’s banking system, Switzerland-based Bank for International Settlements said in a quarterly report on Sunday. AFP/Beijing China’s banking sector could be facing an imminent debt crisis, a global central bank watchdog has warned, fuelling fresh fears of a blowout in the world’s second largest economy which could hit the global financial system. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) – dubbed the central bank of central banks – said a gauge of Chinese debt had hit a record high in the ...

Next big economic bust - C2C-AM

In the first half, economist specializing in demographics, Harry Dent, discussed the cyclical nature of market bubbles and why he expects a crash to happen no later than next year, with late 2017 seeing the sharpest crash. According to his research, bubbles build exponentially, but they crash twice as fast, especially when it comes to stocks. Typically, half of the crash happens in the first two or three months, so if you wait to see if the market will reverse course, you can lose heavily, he remarked. He predicts this next crash will be worse than 2008, and the housing market will fall across the globe. The first sign of the coming downturn of the market was the bubble crash in the ...

The “TBTF” Banks Are Threatening the Global Economy Again – Here’s What You Need to Know

The “TBTF” Banks Are Threatening the Global Economy Again – Here’s What You Need to Know May 4th, 2016 | By Shah Gilani The United States and global economic powers increasingly rely on big banks to facilitate government borrowing, fund commercial and consumer loans, underwrite economic growth, and act as originators, principals, and agents in capital markets. Now that reliance increasingly looks to be the cause of lackluster global growth. Today, we’ll look at the size of big-banks, their structural issues, and how the need to “socialize” their losses, because of their size, fundamentally retards economic growth. Then, on Friday, we’ll examine ...

Why I Wasn't Surprised by Wells Fargo's Scam Management wants us to believe "just 5,300 bad apples can spoil the bunch" at America's favorite bank... By Shah Gilani, Capital Wave Strategist, Money Morning • @WallStreet_II • September 19, 2016 By now we all know that Wells Fargo & Co. (NYSE: WFC), one of America's premier banking giants, got slapped with $185 million in fines to settle charges of widespread fraud. Or was it a screw-up? Maybe management, compliance officers, risk monitors, and auditors simply failed to catch thousands of employees who happened to be engaged in a massive and likely criminal enterprise going back five years. In ...

Chinese currency RMB will become more important for Australia's economy: ACBC chief

SYDNEY, Sept. 16 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese currency RMB will become even more important for Australia's economy, and even the world, over the next three years as China's central bank continues its internationalization, the chief of the Australia China Business Council (ACBC) said on Friday. Australia's economy is continuing a mirroring economic transition, away from mining and industrial-led growth, to services industries tailored to capitalize on the Asian middle class. Within the next 10 years, it's expected trade links with growth even further with China expected to represent up to 47 percent of Australia's healthcare exports, 41 percent of educational exports, 35 ...

Thursday, it closed near 18,240. But in character with his “Dr. Doom” persona, the publisher of the Gloom Boom & Doom Report newsletter, it won’t be pretty. “In an extreme money-printing environment, the Dow Jones Industrial Average can go to 100,000,” Faber said in a recent interview with the Epoch Times.

Why shredding $100 bills could be great for the economy

Why shredding $100 bills could be great for the economy Justine Underhill September 17, 2016 While more than half of all transactions in the US are electronic—think debit cards, Apple Pay and Venmo—there’s still a record $1.4 trillion in physical currency, from pennies to $100 bills, circulating in the global economy. That’s almost double the amount from a decade ago, and about 80% of that cash is in $100 bills. These large bills could be making us poorer and less safe, says Kenneth Rogoff, Harvard economist and author of the new book “The Curse of Cash.” For Rogoff, the benefits of phasing out both $50 and $100 bills are two-fold: It would hamper criminal ...

This Is the One Place Where We Actually Need More Taxes By Michael E. Lewitt, Global Credit Strategist, Money Morning • September 12, 2016 Michael E. Lewitt I'm all for radical tax reform: getting rid of tax deductions, ending estate taxes, and most of all, drastically lowering income and corporate tax rates. Read this if you don't believe me. But there's one section of the economy where we need more taxes. This is it. We Need a "Sin Tax"… on Derivatives Toward the end of 2009, proposals were floated in Congress to impose a modest tax on certain types of securities transactions. One proposed piece of legislation, titled "Let Wall Street Pay for ...

Harvard professor identifies the 'worst nightmare' in America right now Nicole Sinclair September 14, 2016 “The confused national discourse about our economy and future prosperity in this election year is our worst nightmare,” Harvard Professor Michael Porter writes. “There is almost a complete disconnect between the national discourse and the reality of what is causing our problems and what to do about them. This misunderstanding of facts and reality is dangerous, and the resulting divisions make an already challenging agenda for America even more daunting.” In its just-released report on competitiveness, “Problems Unsolved and a Nation Divided: State ...

A Summary of the Rothschild crime syndicate in Israel

- Fort Russ News - - There has been so much that has already been written about the Rothschild crime syndicate that for those who aren’t part of the Great Awakening/ Truth Movement, it simply gets confusing and overwhelming. It is my intent to unravel that in this article and to speak to common people and not just the intellectual elite. Before I begin, I want to emphatically state the following: To those freemasonic architects of control whose aim has always been to lie and confuse the masses by muddying the truth, let it be clear that what I am about to discuss is NOT a “conspiracy theory” – a pejorative they commonly use when they crave to assassinate articulate ...

Shocking Chart Signals MAJOR Market Move Ahead

After the Brexit mini-crash - and the shockingly fast recovery - we've entered a period of relative calm in the markets. But it may be the calm before the storm. In fact, it reminds me of a scary video I once saw when I was living in Bangkok. The video showed the moments before one of the most deadly tidal waves in history struck the shore in Thailand. The ocean was calm on that day, too. People were sunning themselves on the beach. Some of them wandered out into the low tide to pick up clams and seashells. But in one terrifying moment, everyone was underwater. Tens of thousands of people drowned that day. I believe something similar is happening in the U.S. stock market right ...

Here’s My Playbook for These Increasingly Turbulent Times Mike Larson | Tuesday, September 13, 2016 at 4:30 pm Week one of the National Football League is in the books, and boy was it an exciting one! My “real” team, the New England Patriots, managed to eke out a win against the favored Arizona Cardinals – and my fantasy football team took home a “W,” too. So I can’t complain. One of the most interesting things about the first week of the regular season is what team playbooks look like. Most coaches keep new routes, schemes, and star players under wraps in the pre-season so their opponents don’t know what to expect when the games actually start ...

Why the Fed is vaporizing your retirement savings (and when it will end)…

Why the Fed is vaporizing your retirement savings (and when it will end)… By J. Reeves September 13, 2016 There’s a clear answer to when your savings account will earn decent interest again… Never. That may be a slight exaggeration… but it’s not far off from reality. As you’ll see, there’s an important reason the U.S. central bank (the Federal Reserve) and central banks around the globe have lowered interest rates to 5,000-year lows… Chart The U.S. government has a near-incomprehensible debt problem. The national debt now stands just south of $20 trillion (that’s a 20 with 12 zeroes behind it). The Money Project shared some statistics to ...

Crazy Correlations Cause Contagion Selling – Will it Persist? Mike Larson | Monday, September 12, 2016 at 4:30 pm Crazy correlations. That’s what was behind Friday’s contagion selling. And before I answer the next logical question – namely, is the selling squall over? – I want to share something with you. I’ve included a chart of the “Credit Suisse Cross-Market Contagion Indicator.” A mouthful, for sure. But basically, the indicator is designed to show how linked (or unlinked) various assets are in terms of movement. When currencies, stocks, bonds, and other asset classes are all basically trading together, the index rises. When they’re ...

Chinese bullet train in Venezuela stalls as alliance derails

scmp... It was once billed as a model of socialist fraternity: South America’s first high-speed train, powered by Chinese technology, crisscrossing Venezuela to bring development to its backwater plains. Now all but abandoned, it has become a symbol of economic collapse – and a strategic relationship gone adrift. Where dozens of modern buildings once stood, cattle now graze on grass growing amid the rubble of the project’s gutted and vandalised factory. A red arched sign in Chinese and Spanish is all that remains of what until 16 months ago was a bustling complex of 800 workers. That’s when the project’s Chinese managers quietly cleared out. As with many ...

China Swats ‘A Few Flies’ to Temper Electric-Car Maker Excesses

Boomberg... China’s go-go era of pouring billions in subsidies that turned its electric vehicle market into the world’s biggest may be coming to an end after the government cracked down on funding cheats and pledged to wean the industry off handouts. In slapping five companies with fines for scamming the state of about $150 million in subsidies, Chinese policy makers were making the latest in a series of moves to put checks on the torrid growth in the nation’s EV industry. The crackdown, coming on the heels of higher technological requirements and a limit on licenses to manufacture EVs, shows the government is guarding against excesses that may derail its goal to get 5 ...

This $7 trillion pension time bomb is ticking on your retirement From Teeka Tiwari, editor, The Palm Beach Letter: It was the letter Jerry Deaton had been fearing. Deaton, a 69-year-old retired truck driver, was waiting for his pension check from the Teamsters’ Central States Pension Fund. It has 400,000 participants in 37 states. The news was devastating. Deaton stared at the letter stating his pension would be cut in half. Said Deaton, “It doesn’t leave you with much options. I’ll be 70 in December. Who’s going to hire a 70-year-old truck driver?” Pensions’ $7 Trillion Time Bomb Deaton’s story is a microcosm of America’s impending pension ...

Revelation 6:5 When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. 6 Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds of wheat for a day’s wages, and six pounds of barley for a day’s wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!” Consider first my brief post, citing John Mauldin’s concerns (to put it mildly) regarding the potential actions currently being contemplated by central bankers around the world. Now, consider this from Ambrose Evans-Pritchard: An ominous paper by the US ...

Markets Crushed as “Everything” Sells Off – What to Do

Markets Crushed as “Everything” Sells Off – What to Do Mike Larson | Friday, September 9, 2016 at 4:30 pm Today was a day when “Everything” sold off. Stocks. Bonds. REITs. Emerging markets. Auto shares. You name it. The Dow suffered its worst one-day decline in almost two months. The question many on Wall Street are asking is “Why?” And my answer is simple: This has been, as I’ve said many times before, an “Everything Bubble.” The single, unifying catalyst driving the price of assets of all kinds has been excess central bank liquidity. Anything that suggests the so-called monetary stimulus will level off, or worse, be withdrawn, causes ...

Geopolitically Clueless Libertarian Presidential Candidate Gary Johnson by Stephen Lendman When asked what he’d do about Aleppo if elected president, Johnson astonishingly replied: “(W)hat is Aleppo?” Asked if he was “kidding,” he said “no.” Pre-war, Aleppo was Syria’s largest city, its main commercial hub. Now it’s the epicenter of weeks of war for control over a key part of the country. James Petras believes its liberation would strike “a decisive blow against the alliance of Saudi Arabia, Washington and Turkey.” Defeating terrorism in Aleppo “will turn the war,” said Petras. “(O)nce (it) falls, Raqqa” is ...

Love him or hate him there is one thing nobody can deny: Donald Trump knows a lot about the US economy! He is part of the top 1% running this country and has built a multi-billion dollar fortune So is the Republican frontrunner full of hot air again? Or is this a slip of the tongue from somebody who knows more than he is willing to share with the rest of us? The answer to this question will shock even hardcore liberals. Here what Trump had to say about this “bubble” on December 19th 2015. “We could be in bubble and that bubble could crash and it's not going to be a pretty picture. You know the market is going down big league the last couple of weeks. But we could ...
