coverage of several smallcap companies positioned to rise like
a cantilever during the ongoing panicky attempt to sustain an
unsustainable system burdened by numerous imbalances aggravated
by global village forces. An historically unprecedented mess
has been created by heretical central bankers and charlatan economic
advisors, whose interference has irreversibly altered and damaged
the world financial system. Analysis features Gold, Crude Oil,
USDollar, Treasury bonds, and inter-market dynamics with the
US Economy and US Federal Reserve monetary policy. A tad of relevant
geopolitics is covered as well. Articles in this series are promotional,
an unabashed gesture to induce readers to subscribe.
The Bretton Woods II principal
propaganda plank has been buried, with no fanfare, no eulogy
on a moronic indefensible myth chapter. Asia no longer supplies
credit to the United States debt monster. That mantle has been
accepted by a combination of the Persian Gulf oil producers and
the counterfeit press, each showing strain. The transition is
truly deadly. Increasingly feisty, if not hostile, sheiks in
the hotbed of the Middle East have become the last remaining
pillar of USDollar support. If any prominent economist thirty
years ago had taken the podium at a professional conference or
political assembly and put forth a plan for the USEconomy to
rest upon two pillars of credit supply, one being a printing
press, that person would be condemned as a charlatan, a quack,
a lunatic, a bird brain, an incompetent counselor hellbent on
destroying the financial structure of the land where the beacon
of freedom used to shine. Well, that is exactly what has happened,
except this time, the process of flooding the system with phony
fiat false money is hailed as a boon to investors, a solution
to home foreclosures, and a source of tremendous profit for US
corporations.
We have come full circle from
responsible competent economic counsel dating back to the 1960
decade to a guided path to truly cataclysmic Orwellian financial
structures. We see the rancid bitter fruit of a USDollar suffering
from debt constipation and economic sclerosis, whose supporting
tree lacks the proper manufacturing branch burdened by increasing
weight of baby boomer retirees. As the United States gradually
becomes isolated on the geopolitical stage, for whatever reason,
whether an unfortunate damaging twist of fate or inept aggressive
leadership or a compromised Congress, the USGovt and US populace
find themselves dependent upon what can be described as the 'Weimar
Engine' in a highly precarious manner. The ongoing credit and
debt explosion keeps the system running, keeps the rivers of
money moving, while leaving the door open for fraud and granted
gravy gathering by powerful insiders. Von Mises warned that at
an end stage, an acceleration of money and debt will be necessary
in order to sustain even flat growth. We are there now, here
and now today. The Gross Domestic Product for 1Q2007 will be
officially announced as almost flat, probably under 1% growth.
Accept that number if you accept a 3% to 4% price inflation.
Not here, not me, no way, no how!
THE USDOLLAR BOUNCE
Do not get excited
about this USDollar bounce. It is feeble. It will be short-lived.
Sure, a very short-term bullish stochastix crossover occurred,
which was inevitable after the April important breakdown. Profit
taking has been in progress. Let's see if in a few weeks we learn
that China has blunted this little bounce. The downtrend which
began in November 2005 with a 92 high was followed by a long
enduring breakdown which has not ended. The falling 20-week and
falling 50-week moving averages testify to a powerful down trend
which will not end until the critical support at 80 is tested
repeatedly. Resistance will be seen at the 83 mark (20wMA), the
83.6 mark (trendline), and the 84.3 mark (50wMA). The DX index
price is wrestling with the Nov2006 old support, now resistance.
Given the wretched fundamentals,
the prospect of lower official interest rates led by the USFed
(or followed by the USFed via endorsement), the ongoing strain
of a shrinking bond yield differential, the impact spillover
of the housing crisis and mortgage debacle, the USEconomy recession
in progress (if reality is chosen), the USDollar will continue
to plumb new lows, seek reaction from financial markets and
foreign economies, and aggravate foreign central bankers who
hold a growing mountain of USTreasury Bonds and other US$-based
bonds such as corporates and agencies (mortgages). When the floor
of support breaks, a near certainty, we will set the stage for
gold to move toward $1000, and silver to move toward $20.
The most recent kick in the
US$ shins was doled out by Kuwait. Sheik Salem Adbelaziz al Sabah,
governor of the Central Bank of Kuwait, announced its removal
of a peg to the USDollar. He cited "detrimental effects
of the pegging system to the national economy" which
is a nice phrase for inviting rampant price inflation from a
falling currency. The wider fear is that the Gulf Cooperation
Council (GCC), the informal body which guides Persian Gulf oil
producer policy, might began to endorse other regional oil producers
to abandon support for the USDollar. Kuwait will apparently continue
with 75% to 80% weight to the US$ in their dinar currency. The
prospect for GCC currency union just received a knife in the
back, since both Saudi Arabia and Bahrain recently reiterated
their commitment to the US$ peg. The new denial is that other
GCC nations will not follow suit. Of course they will. The United
Arab Emirates, Oman, and Qatar are studying policy alternatives.
Add this to the list of denials founded more firmly on our soil.
Never dismiss the impact on
the USDollar currency from the US Military standing down in its
buildup and threat toward Iran. Hats off to CENTCOM commander
Admiral Fallon, who just said no. The omnibus commander in chief
might be an empty chair! The USGovt lost face. Russia and China
make for powerful allies to Iran. Upstart Venezuela threatened
retaliation also. Cooler heads in Europe might have influenced
the aggressive weakened US leaders. And now Israeli leaders plan
to meet and negotiate with the Arab League. Times are changing,
but in the process, US leaders look weak, sure to generate lost
confidence in the eyes are key foreign investors. The good side
is that with cooler heads prevailing, come less immediate destruction
in the Persian Gulf.
LOUD SHRILL DENIAL
The latest absurd chapter
within the context of the USEconomic mythology is in the process
of being written. A few weeks ago, an article of mine entitled
"Death of Bretton Woods II" (click here)
in late April made the point that a loud denial of the unfolding
multi-faceted crisis would be the next manifestation. A new chapter
of the profound corrupted and entirely heretic economic mythology
would not follow, but rather a shrill denial of the unfixable
problems which will crop up. The decline of the USDollar joins
the housing crisis & mortgage debacle, as the currency devaluation
inches closer toward the abyss. People and institutions are actually
denying that a falling USDollar is negative. Never in modern
history has a deep currency decline been a favorable development.
Instead, it constitutes an international rejection of an economy,
its financial markets, and faith in its leaders.
The propaganda DENIALS
have returned on how the weaker USDollar is not such a big deal,
not the dire situation which it obviously is. If they are not
propaganda, they are based in horribly incompetent and indefensible
analysis. Check the motives from those who utter the denials,
and you will at least notice a deep vested interest in a brokerage
firm, a bank, a mutual fund, a private consultant, or a government
agency. Here are several planks in their corrupted denial
system founded in lies and rationalization, the newest echoes
of US Mythology.
MULTI-NATIONAL FIRMS & CURRENCY
TRANSLATION
THE DENIAL: Multi-national firms will enjoy a positive currency
translation from their foreign operations. Sure, but the significant operations probably
are inside the USEconomy, where all customers will be subject
to rising costs uniformly. A rising proportion of the profits
for Fortune 1000 companies are derived from foreign operations,
just as a rising share of the growth in profits comes from favorable
foreign currency translations. The natural reaction for big US
firms is to expand their investment in foreign lands, to furlough
workers in the United States, and to gradually even ship intellectual
white collar professional jobs overseas. See the IBM announcement
to ship over 100 thousand jobs out of the US. The trend upon
distant continuation will leave the USEconomy a shell, its workers
paupers, its lords wealthy, and the middle class nonexistent.
This denial only testifies to liquidation of businesses, if not
abandonment of US workers. See the business investment trends,
and emphasis in foreign lands.
PRICE DISCOUNT OF US ASSETS
THE DENIAL: Price discounts to US stocks, bonds, housing, and
other assets will attract more foreign buyers. That is backwards, as the trend has
been down, discouraging foreign investors, as seen in 2006 figures
which are loud & clear. A discount on asset price is noticed
only after price stabilizes, which has not happened. Foreign
investors will seize upon a bargain, to be sure, but they will
not enter when the trend is down. The trend is for a falling
USDollar, for better investment opportunity abroad, and shrinking
capital flows. Just recently, the capital flows in March were
down over 50% sequentially to $45 billion from $101 billion in
February. The denial is easily shot down, as facts get in the
way.
ATTRACT TOURISM TO US
THE DENIAL: The US tourism industry will thrive, as foreign visitors
will flock to our shores.
Sure, but that same effect obstructs US tourists from visiting
foreign lands, leaving them trapped. The unusual sideshow of
English and other European shoppers making trips to New York
and other points east in order to conduct shopping tours to grab
cheap retail items only points out how bizarre the situation
has become. Talk about a dislocation and aberration! This denial
might have some substance to it, but US citizens will probably
surrender their travel plans altogether outside the country.
Hey, Costa Rica is still a bargain, and nearby, pura vida!
DIRECT FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN US
THE DENIAL: Foreign investment in US corporations, or in US-based
projects, will flourish.
To do so, foreign firms must detect growing consumer strength.
That goes against all trends in recent years, even months, as
the US is the harshest environment for regulations, environmental
standards, worker benefits & protection, federal taxes, and
so on. So foreigners will invest here when US firms will not?
Try again! Recent retail sales have fallen seriously. This denial
is downright baseless and illogical, not to mention comical and
nutty.
WAGES OUTPACE INFLATION
THE DENIAL: The price inflation has been tame, as price inflation
has been less than wages growth.
Again, such a claim flies in the face of all data. Wages cannot
even keep up with falsified suppressed CPI figures. Official
USGovt wage statistics report that inflation adjusted income
has fallen since 2001. The wages fall behind prices by at least
6% to 8% per year, which is precisely why the Middle Class feels
squeezed. This claim is based upon the actual price inflation
problem, not the official falsified report. This denial is shot
down the by USGovt itself.
INFLATE DEBTS AWAY
THE DENIAL: The US will have another chance to inflate our debts
away. This is moronic,
since debts are exploding, not being paid off, even as debt defaults
occur, complete with bankruptcies and foreclosures. Expect more
of the same. This plank is utterly moronic, and ignores all evidence
of the past two decades. In fact, it is a repeating refrain from
the corrupt clueless cast of economists, used every few years,
never corroborated, as national debt levels of every type conceivable
are on the rise, have been on the rise, and will continue to
be on the rise for as far as the eye can see. This denial ignores
all debt charts, which are parabolic upward in their paths, and
create great systemic risks in their unsustainable course. This
denial is like a national disease in thought process, to endorse
debt.
REDUCED IMPORTS ANYWAY
THE DENIAL: The US does not import all that much anymore, what
with all the Japanese carmaker plants operating inside our shores. This is to admire the placid antelope
in your living room, calling it pretty, regarding at as safe,
when in the center of the room stands a 400 lb hungry tiger eyeing
the easy prey. The trade deficit is enormous, resuming its upward
path. The current account deficit is 5.8% of the US GDP, having
flirted with the mid 6% levels last year. The comment about carmarkers
entrenched on US soil, hiring US workers, was made by the supercilious
haughty Mark Haines of CNBC, who probably regards trade deficits
as positive (after all, his training is as an attorney). He does
not do much homework, since the Japanese carmakers are responsible
for imports of many car subsystems like engines, transmission,
brake systems, tires, and more, resulting in growth to the trade
deficit. This denial ignores the recent trajectory of colossal
Chinese bilateral trade deficits. A comment on recent trends.
From June 2005 to June 2006, US exports rose by 13.5% versus
a 12.4% rise by imports. That halted the trend seen since 2001,
as the import growth had been roughly 50% greater relatively
than the export growth. From end of 2005, exports are rising
nicely at a 13.2% rate versus only 7.3% rise in imports. However,
bear in mind that a slower USEconomy shows up in slower imports
of consumer items. Higher costs for imported oil keep the imports
rising though. This denial fails to comprehend the complexities
of the trade deficit, which will vanish only if a deep recession
or worse takes grip for a full decade, complete with millions
of lost jobs and millions of bankruptcies and thousands of corporate
failures and a big bank meltdown and a surefire derivative blowup.
INCREASED EXPORTS EXPECTED
THE DENIAL: The US will realize a tremendous boom in export business,
as the USDollar offers price discounts for exported products
to foreign customers.
This is true, with a loud qualifier. Sure, expanding foreign
economies have increased their purchases of some equipment and
other products made in the United States. The tilt in business
investment occurs abroad but not inside the US itself. Furthermore,
the manufacturing base of the US is shrinking. Let's examine
the chief components of the US mfg base. 1) Carmakers
are under great strain during a liquidation phase, as the Japanese
become extraordinarily dominant. The Chinese are soon to export
cheap cars. 2) Pharmaceutical firms do a gangbuster business
in the US, but their exports are limited. The barrage of a dozen
television advertisements per hour on US networks fails to cross
the borders en masse into foreign penetration so as to generate
export sales. 3) Electricity plants & gasoline refineries
produce for domestic demand. It is a close battle which is in
worse shape according to its infrastructure. Canadian hydro-electricity
is imported along northern border locations, not exported. 4)
Fast food restaurants, those purveyors of obesity, clogged
arteries, high cholesterol, and otherwise bad health are now
actually contributing to officially reported manufacturing job
growth, with advances in statistical methodology yet to take
root in mfg sector business growth. What foreigners want the
most from US firms is technology and telecom, each somewhat protected
and restricted for trade. The most coveted items are ultra-fast
computer and network systems, which the USGovt in its wisdom
refuses to permit in large sales to some developing countries
like China. They are free to buy more Boeing aircraft though,
and do, to the point of a condition ad nauseum.
SYMPATHY UNDESERVED
The issue of showing
sympathy has been raised by certain folks, as one regards Uncle
Sam needing cooperative partners, institutional assistance, even
some sympathy during a stressful time of need. The symbol of
the aging empire should be supported in its time of stress, some
claim. Sorry, but he don't qualify for sympathy, kind words,
helpful hands, or the benefit of the doubt. No way! The actions
and policies in recent years, even past three decades, has been
at best aggressive and controlling, at worst shameful and destructive.
Liberties oftentimes are being entirely denied. The spectrum
of its recent history can be recounted, at best for posterity,
at worst for indictment.
- This is a government which
has grossly abused the privilege of printing and managing the
world reserve currency. At best it controls the flow of money
to supply a major economy and to fund a major federal body. At
worst it funds speculation, wasteful spending, burgeoning debt
in a haywire system, unchecked military contract spending, even
military adventure.
a
- This government has coerced
international banking organizations (World Bank, Intl Monetary
Fund) in its policy decisions. At best it influences and guides.
At worst it has the organizations do its bidding and conduct
secret agendas, even to hire its intelligence agents to pose
as bankers, imposing rules which the United States does not adopt
itself, enabling grand raids on foreign banks into New York banks.
a
- This government has corrupted
every major economic statistic (GDP, CPI, productivity, jobless,
housing) into a laughably invalid and deceptive facade, in order
to paint a picture of health and stability for selling bonds
to cover its burgeoning debt. At best it is inept and clumsy,
at worst calculated and precise in the distortions.
a
- This government has permitted
laxity in regulatory bodies (Securities & Exchange, Commodity
Futures Trading Commission). At best they are overwhelmed by
a complex group of financial markets. At worst they are ordered
not to force liquidation of leveraged securities which bear no
resemblance to economically motivated positions, not to enforce
rules for connected New York players, and to stand down regarding
the vast schemes on price fixing on a grand scale which are covered
up.
a
- This is a government whose
Congress has grown ineffective. At best special interest lobby
groups has managed to gain too much influence, at times in opposition
to the public interest. At worst the entire system of representation
has been subverted beyond repair, where the interests of the
people have no place in the tyranny.
a
- This government has intervened
with foreign regimes. At best it has made extreme errors of judgment
with corrupt rulers who show favor to the United States. At worst
it has installed puppets as leaders (Shah of Iran, Saudi Royals)
in order to ensure constant energy supply and rampant corruption
with private confiscation of public resources, earning the ire
of those nations in a series of blowbacks fully understood by
our own intelligence community.
a
- This is a government which
abides by a pact without a treaty to keep the Saudi Royals in
power in exchange for continued subsidy of the USDollar via the
Petro Dollar defacto standard. At best it has forged a practical
arrangement for financial stability. At worst it trades military
security protection (Persian Gulf oil producers) in such a way
as to offer the strong whiff of a protection extortion racket,
resulting in a subsidized USDollar backed by military presence
next door fortified by weapon sales.
a
- This is a government which
works closely with major foreign central banks. At best it coordinates
policy in a constructive manner. At worst it pressures major
central banks into coddling with US policy, into supporting failed
US policy, putting their economies at constant risk, even turning
one (Bank of Japan) into a lackey after it wrecked its own financial
and banking system, the primary current source of the global
carry trade.
a
- This is a government which
has pressured the Middle Class on a grand scale, advocating home
ownership. At best it has forced the public to endure the hidden
inflation tax while attempting to offset that cost by gains on
home equity. At worst it has chosen the easy route to pay bills
for reckless policies which benefit mainly the Ruling Elite,
abused monetary inflation, confused price inflation, changed
bankruptcy tax laws to harm the people, and has led too many
people into home ownership precisely when the housing market
turned to a bust.
a
- This is a government on whose
watch the gold bullion collateral has been gradually depleted.
At best it sold an asset which earns no yield income, thereby
averting a panicky gold bull market to compete against the mainstream.
At worst it opened the door, set the rules favorably, and permitted
the raid of the major portion of the US and European gold treasury,
enabling massive multi-billion$ in shady profits, for the primary
benefit of the Ruling Elite with access, and whose practices
continue with official large scale gold bullion dumps.
a
- This is a government which
has systemically dismantled the entire foundation for its own
currency, both with gold collateral and federal fiscal debt management,
as a fresh new $trillion in debt is logged onto the books every
two years despite absurd claims of moving toward a balanced budget.
a
- This is a government which
leans toward a wartime economy. At best it has seen the benefit
and virtue of exploiting the ultimate business investment (military)
as it forges business relationships abroad, firms up commercial
paths, frees shipping lanes. At worst it has abandoned legitimate
manufacturing, research & development, turning the national
economy into a quagmire of debt with structural defects like
a body having no arms or legs.
a
- This is a government beset
by a growing trend of fraud cases. At best the fraud is manageable
as a small proportion of the overall growing budgets, currying
too much favor to the Iron Triangle (military industrial contracts).
At worst, term after term it has subjected the US public to corrupt
federal contracts (Hurricane Katrina Relief, Iraq & Afghan
Wars) and grand larceny on a scale which is mindboggling, estimated
at $1 stolen in fraud out of every $3 spent.
a
- This is a government focused
intensely on security matters. At best it has created a mania
with questionable basis of security attack concerns. At worst
it now tampers with the security systems for bank, national border,
and port facilities, with more private profiteering, less effectiveness,
obvious silly obstacles, having set new sights on obtaining security
encryption keys for internet commerce, where ineffectiveness,
waste, crony profiteering, and fraud beset almost all projects.
a
- This is a government which
has linked financial support with its military actions. At best
a coincidence occurs with repeated actions following slippage
in foreign financial support. At worst it has resorted to military
exercises off the ports of nations (South Korea, Qatar) refusing
full cooperation within its game.
a
- This is a government whose
financial titans work in overlapping fashion with Wall Street
firms in longstanding contracts. At best the relationships have
deepened and provide at times opportunities for them to profit.
At worst it has secretly turned the JPMorgan into the US Federal
Reserve, complete with offshore agencies to do its bidding, even
serving as the Enron mentor but escaping all prosecution. At
worst Goldman Sachs has turned into the Dept of Treasury, abusing
the privilege of controlling its GS Commodity Index on gasoline
price manipulation, and colluding for Chinese bank initial public
offerings and private profit.
a
- This is a government run currently
by oil industry people. At best experienced executives from the
oil industry occupy many key posts. At worst it has placed oil
industry people into numerous important agency positions, in
order to exploit national priorities toward profiteering by the
energy business and to gut agency functions.
a
- This is a government with
a clear track record on mega contracts to govern the world reserve
currency and management of sovereign bonds associated with it.
At best practical decisions were made regarding the USDollar
and gold, regarding USTreasury Bonds and their recycle before
maturity. At worst it defaulted on its honor of trade deficits
delivered in gold bullion, the broken Bretton Woods Accord, the
broken USDollar gold standard, not to mention the explicit defaults
of the USTreasury Bonds (by forcing redemption and conversion
into lower yielding bonds).
a
- This is a government with
a gradual movement toward the Mussolini Business Model. At best
relationships between government and the largest private businesses
have become tight, cooperative, and firm. At worst it has step
by step turned the Administration, security, and fringe military
into a virtual syndicate, whose costs are covered by the US taxpayers
but whose profits are kept in private hands.
a
- This is a government on a
course to react strongly to security concerns. At best it has
gone too far in reaction in order to obtain information about
enemies and their plots. At worst it has rather deviously scrapped
the Bill of Rights and perhaps rendered the Constitution an artifact,
exaggerating the threats. Recall that Nixon first abused national
security to cover up internal illegal activity.
a
- This is a government whose
political alignment has been confusing. At best they are a pack
whose ideology has been difficult to discern, stronger in loyalty
than their thought process. At worst many of its ministers and
agency heads own passports to another nation without full awareness
of the American people. Just as Clinton was not a mainstream
Democrat, neither is Bush II a mainstream Republican.
Sympathy for a crippled weakened
leader? Not a chance. This is a bully in the schoolyard. This
bully does not earn his keep, spends like a drunken sailor, angers
his own friends, takes lunch money from other kids. This bully
expects a free ride, continued privilege, believes in 'full spectrum
dominance' without regard to treaties, who answers to nobody,
not even Congress of the American people. This increasingly aggressive
and hostile creature expects total control without any checks
& balances merely because of the pedigree of being Americans.
Why should any thinking aware caring person show sympathy or
respect for a man who contracts a nasty case of poison ivy in
his private parts below the belt, when he obtained the problem
during the rape of an innocent young girl who was walking home,
pulling her into the heavy weeds behind the bushes? To expect
sympathy is out of place. Why should any cognizant well-informed
alert observer show sympathy or respect for a man who breaks
his hand and wrist, when he developed the problem attempting
to punch someone in the face but missed and hit a post instead?
To expect sympathy is absurd.
CONCLUSION
One can be constantly
be amazed by the denial systems. As the Bretton Woods II mythology
dies out, look for blatant shrill deafening wrong claims to surface.
Out of the rubbish best described as ideological mumbo jumbo
propaganda, new planks will be erected which serve as the new
mythology. No new myth system has rushed into the vacuum, but
rather silly baseless denials about the USDollar decline have
come into earshot. The powers that run the carnival will attempt
to fashion new myths into a new economic foundation, but eerily
they are quiet. Nowhere is Greenspan, the revered architect of
financial catastrophe. They will try to create a new set of beliefs
eventually, but they tap an empty wellspring of ideas. Tragically,
they will try to launch a vessel which is grossly unseaworthy.
Like the Coast Guard vessels designed by an entrenched military
contractor for security on the high seas, the subject of recent
controversy and more Congressional hearings. Its communications
gear (like radios) is not water proof, its video security monitors
do not cover the helm, its highest speed is inadequate to keep
pace with the fleet they supposedly are to join. Those who can,
they work. Those who cannot, they teach. But the truly inept
and incompetent and corrupted, they govern. Those who enjoy fiction,
they run the media & press networks.
Watch new flabbergasting ridiculous
absurd denials to stream in, which will develop into a massive
propaganda system worthy to make Goebbels of Nazi Germany proud.
MY SINGLE ITEM used to explain to the unsophisticated public
is gasoline costs, which have risen much faster than their paychecks.
Easy to explain, easy to grasp, no dispute. The network news
at times does correctly report the squeeze on normal households,
but they fail to comprehend the fast rising price inflation,
and fail to detect the higher jobless condition. The networks
refuse to join the outcry against false doctored phony economic
statistics.
