Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

John, good to see you are still with us. I noticed you hadn't written anything on the home page for a good while. I think about this page when I note how crazy things have gotten. People like Steve Bannon speak of the 4th turning. We are clearly there.

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

The China bubble is probably the most important economic issue on Earth today. The comment that a fire sale would undermine prices is an understatement. I would be shocked, if under 20% of the world's natural resources weren't going into China construction. It hasn't been that long ago, the US came ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

A couple of great posts John. Your implications of the Taliban comments on JFK and Biden are that these people favor some kind of slavery, covertly. Biden is a criminal. JFK at least had some admirable qualities. Then, lets proceed to Jimmy Carter, who presided over the end of Viet Nam. I'm not sure...

Re: 15-Nov-16 World View -- Bulgaria and Moldova elect pro-Russian presidents, turning away from EU

There are a couple of things you are missing John, but then again, I have been away for awhile. The cable leaks published by WikiLeaks reveals the US state department and CIA were behind the mess in Ukraine and Syria. Assad is definitely an SOB, but there is much more to that mess than just Assad. T...

Only a group of morons would watch what Japan did and repeat it and expect it to work. There is a lot more than meets the eye though. Japan was kept afloat by excess credit in the US, but at the same time, excess US credit built China, which created a new competitor to Japan. Artificial rates for ca...

Re: Financial topics

John that article was written by Charles Hugh Smith on the site Of Two Minds. In it he shows the chart as a broadening pattern, which is very bearish. As far as the earnings in the prior post? Don't forget earnings have gone to zero in the interval and I would examine the multi-trillions in bonds is...

Re: 24-Jun-14 World View -- Egypt's Kangaroo Court

Not only will some generation not buy into the stock market at these prices, the market itself will collapse under the weight of the debt taken on by corporations to inflate their own stocks. Plus, there is now more margin debt than there is extra money in accounts. The idea of cash on the sidelines...

The US might not recover from this administration. We are like an old pit bull with no teeth. The last President that made this big a mess of foreign policy was Jimmy Carter. We were lucky he lasted only 1 term. Not so lucky this time.

Re: 10-Aug-13 World View -- Israeli drone strike in Sinai

John, note who they are throwing in jail? The Indians on the bottom, not the chiefs. I was here when the S&L's blew in the 1980's. They threw about everyone they could in jail. How was I to know?

Re: 10-Aug-13 World View -- Israeli drone strike in Sinai

I spent several years in the mortgage business, but got out. I knew some guys doing mortgages back in the mid 2000's, some of whom were making good money working for Countrywide. I informed them they were peddling junk, but they insisted they had good investors. I warned them one day they would come...
