Bloomberg... Dairy farmers are under siege thanks to low prices and changing tastes. Even a one-week holiday shutdown by yogurt giant Chobani inflicted pain. A decade ago, Greek yogurt was ascendant in America. In New York state, the hope among farmers and politicians was that their fortunes would benefit as well. In 2005, Hamdi Ulukaya spent less than $1 million buying an old Kraft yogurt processing plant in New Berlin, 150 miles northwest of New York City. Within two years, the native of Turkey was already a success. His yogurt brand, Chobani, was in supermarket refrigerators everywhere, pushing aside older, big-name brands while making Greek yogurt a staple of the American diet. Rich ...

He told The New York Times that the nation has lost respect for its leadership and institutions. Former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, who has reached legend status in the world of central banking, isn't optimistic about current conditions. When Volcker looks around now, he sees "a hell of a mess in every direction," including a lack of basic respect for government institutions, a current Fed that seems to be following a completely arbitrary benchmark and a "swamp" in Washington run by plutocrats. "At least the military still has all the respect. But I don't know, how can you run a democracy when nobody believes in the leadership of the ...

PressTV... Germany is angry after the US government intervenes in a multi-billion-dollar deal for Siemens AG to develop power stations in Iraq and forces Baghdad to opt for General Electric (GE) instead. The American company signed a memorandum of understanding with the Iraqi government earlier this week, outlining their cooperation in the fields of oil and gas production and power generation. A person, who has seen the paperwork, told The Financial Times that Washington plans to offer financing and insurance for US firms doing business in the Iraqi power sector. GE's agreement with Iraq dashed Siemens’ hopes of winning a $15 billion contract to supply 11 gigawatts of ...

It Ain't So, Alan! Why Greenspanian Central Banking Is the Mortal Enemy of Capitalist Prosperity

We can thank bubblevision and the Maestro himself for a splendid reminder today that Greenspanian central banking is the greatest menace to capitalist prosperity ever invented. This was made abundantly clear by his pronouncement on CNBC regarding the current labor market: “Tightest labor market I’ve ever seen.” – Greenspan on @CNBC As an empirical matter, of course, that’s rank nonsense – and is among the stupidest quips the Maestro has ever uttered. That’s because the law of supply and demand dictates that if the labor market is actually the tightest since Greenspan began his career in the 1950s, wage rates should also be rising at the highest rate ...

Factory City,also known as "The Factory of the World",is the America of Tomorrow if the Dims win. It is the wet dream come true of international financiers like George Soros,where they end up owning or controlling every aspect of production,including the workers. I am unsure if this is 21 st Century Communism,or if it is suddenly the 1930's again. 17,000+ employees that live,work,marry,give birth,and die right there. They all walk to work,so there is no need for any of them to have cars or any other form of transportation,although the shift bosses in the factory ride around on bicycles to keep the production going smoothly. They all live in company apartments,shop in ...
Elizabeth Warren's ex-husband founded DNA testing company

Sen. Elizabeth Warren's ex-husband co-founded a DNA testing company and wrote one of the first computer codes for making genetic comparisons. Jim Warren's career involved him in the kinds of genetic testing that Elizabeth Warren controversially invoked this month to prove that she had Native American ancestry. One of the two other co-founders of his testing company, FamilyTreeDNA, has worked with Carlos Bustamante, the Stanford University geneticist who administered a DNA test at Elizabeth Warren's request. Bustamante, a Stanford University geneticist, conducted the test, which Elizabeth Warren used to respond to President Trump's "Pocahontas" taunt and his ...
US shale’s glory days are numbered

There are some early signs that the US shale industry is starting to show its age, with depletion rates on the rise. A study from Wood Mackenzie found that some wells in the Permian Wolfcamp were suffering from decline rates at or above 15 percent after five years, much higher than the 5 to 10 percent originally anticipated. “If you were expecting a well to hit the normal 6 or 8 percent after five years, and you start seeing a 12 percent decline, this becomes more of a reserves issue than an economics issue,” said R.T. Dukes, a director at industry consultant Wood Mackenzie Ltd., according to Bloomberg. As a result, “you have to grow activity year over year, or it gets ...

Good evening, I’m still reporting on: US Treasury Leakers Had Ties With Mueller Mob, 2413 Synopsis: According to the Gateway Pundit, Tuesday’s indictment of Treasury Dept. officials who leaked secret banking records of former Trump campaign manager, Paul Manafort, to news media are tied to corrupt Mueller attorney Andrew Weissmann. Forty-year old Natalie Edwards, the senior advisor in the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network – or FinCEN - leaked FinCEN documents to Jason Leopold, a reporter for BuzzFeed. Shockingly, it goes still higher. Named as a co-conspirator with Edwards is an unnamed person only identified as one of the six Associate ...

Over the coming decades, housing will continue to be transformed from a product into a service. Just like we order an Uber or get noodles delivered to our doorstep without much human interaction, soon we’ll be able to rent, buy, or sell homes nearly instantly with an app. This will be a profound change for the residential real-estate industry, which has historically been a “people-driven” business. It involves many different human jobs in order to make a deal happen—realtors, mortgage brokers and lenders, lawyers, title ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh said that the market is facing reduction in supply and no producer is able to make up for the loss. "At present, the oil market is facing reduction in supply and is not balanced," Zanganeh told reporters in Tehran on Tuesday. "At present, no producer has the needed possibility and power to increase production," he added. Zanganeh explained that Saudi Arabia is now using its oil reserves while the US has announced that it will not use its reserves until ambiguities about the fate of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi are cleared. He noted that US President Donald Trump thinks that he can decrease oil prices ...

Budget Deficit Ballooned in 2018, Treasury Says By JIM TANKERSLEY 3 hrs ago © Justin T. Gellerson for The New York Times Treasury Department data show the federal budget deficit rose to $779 billion in fiscal year 2018, an increase of nearly 17 percent year over year. WASHINGTON — The federal budget deficit swelled to $779 billion in fiscal year 2018, the Treasury Department said on Monday, driven in large part by a sharp decline in corporate tax revenues after the Trump tax cuts took effect. The deficit rose nearly 17 percent year over year, from $666 billion in 2017. It is now on pace to top $1 trillion a year before the next presidential election, according to forecasts ...
The Electric Revolution: Move Aside Lithium, Vanadium Is the New Super-Metal for Bigger Batteries

Global Research The lithium ride was a great one. Cobalt, too. All they needed was their Elon Musk moment, which came in the form of the Nevada battery gigafactory. The next Elon Musk moment won’t be about lithium at all—or even cobalt. It will be for an element that takes everything electric to its revolutionary finish line: Vanadium. The one moment that will change everything … and that moment may be near. Vanadium is lithium on steroids—wildly bigger and the only way forward from here. We may have already reached the peak of our electric revolution through batteries with lithium. We need bigger batteries, preferably the size of a football field—or 20. ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Austrian Ambassador to Tehran Stefan Scholz proposed parties to the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran to develop national digital currency and blockchain strategic plans to confront the US sanctions. "JCPOA stakeholders could increase their influence within blockchain-based finance by developing National Digital Currency and Blockchain Strategic Plans as greater auditability that blockchains allow is a positive step for transparency in terms of AML/CFT," Scholz wrote on his twitter page on Sunday. His remarks came in reaction to a report in Forbes magazine which wrote that "states like Russia, Venezuela, and Iran are looking to build blockchain technology to ...
Dr. Mark Skidmore - $21 Trillion “Missing” Money Huge Implications for Dollar

Michigan State Economics Professor Dr. Mark Skidmore says there is a limit to money printing even when all the global central banks are doing it. Skidmore says, “What does it mean when a central bank is buying equities, or buying debt with printed money in order to suppress interest rates and keep this game going? I think, overall, the whole world is awash in debt, and it’s expanding at a rate that is unsustainable. The only way it has been sustained is that interest rates have been falling for 30 years. Now, interest rates are no longer falling, and we are running up against a constraint. Now, if this $21 trillion in “missing” federal money really represents spending ...

PMF... All assassinated US presidents shared something as off-limits as it gets, fighting the debt plague of Rothschild central banking; Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy. And now, Trump has gone on record with: — “The Federal Reserve is an unelected cabal of central bankers that is running our economy into the ground, and the only way we are going to fix our long-term economic and financial problems is if we abolish it.” Regarding the fed continuing to raise interest rates despite recent market turbulence, Trump just accused the fed of, “Going loco”…and, “They are so tight. I think the Fed has gone crazy.” Crazy, loco…abolish the ...

The opening chapters of Michael Lewis’s new book, The Fifth Risk, detail the carelessness of the Trump transition team in the months leading up to his swearing-in as president. Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie led the team, with its binders full of possible agency chiefs, before he was summarily canned by Steve Bannon, who would be dumped soon himself by the ascending Golden Golem of Greatness. There was, in fact, a set of rigorous protocols for managing the transition of power based on decades of cumulative practice — and anxiety over the frightening nuclear demons at the core of US power — and they were disdained, to the horror of the permanent bureaucracy waiting ...

PressTV... Russia says it has delivered the first cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Brazil in what could lead to a niche business for Moscow in Latin America. The delivery of LNG was made by the Russian gas producer Novatek which said in a statement it had provided Brazil with the strategic fuel from its Yamal project in the Arctic. The cargo was delivered to the Bahia regasification terminal, which is owned by Brazil’s energy giant Petrobras. “Our LNG marketing strategy aims to diversify supply geography and customer base,” Novatek’s head Leonid Michelson was quoted by media as saying. “This shipment represents the first LNG cargo of our own production ...

How a $450 Million da Vinci Was Lost in America---and Later Found 1 day ago © Getty Images More than 27,000 people lined up to see Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘Salvator Mundi’ during Christie’s world-wide tour of the painting last fall. Leonardo da Vinci’s rediscovered painting of Christ as the world’s savior, “Salvator Mundi”—auctioned last year for a record-setting $450.3 million—has been owned by British kings and Russian oligarchs. But until now no one knew much about the nearly half-century it spent lost in obscurity in the U.S. Fresh details have emerged about the da Vinci’s whereabouts and the unsuspecting Louisiana family who ...

The history books will record, ironically, that the Donald peaked in September 2018. Obviously, that was the 10th anniversary of the Lehman financial meltdown. But the original event and its current commemoration actually book-end why Trump came out of nowhere, sojourned briefly in the Oval Office, and then fell victim to an even greater crisis that will end in ignominy for the Donald and in staggering political and economic setbacks for the nation. The original Lehman event was actually a symptom of the national economic breakdown which brought Trump to power against all odds. That is, decades of fiscal profligacy and egregious money-pumping by the Fed have deeply impaired and ...

The market is killing the planet. The planet is struggling. Study after scientific study warns that we've pushed far beyond the physical boundaries of what our living world can sustain. From increasing temperature extremes causing disastrous weather - including record breaking droughts and unprecedented fires - to plastic choked oceans and ecosystem collapses, it's painfully clear something massive's got to give. And yet most governments are waiting for it to make economic sense before they take action. In light of this, a background document for the United Nations' (UN) draft Global Sustainable Development Report 2019 suggests we seriously need to consider making ...
