Presenting The Complete Fed Discount Window Data Dump
Update: the link should be working fine now.
While Zero Hedge ploughs through 25,000 or so pages of just declassified information focusing on the Discount Window, but containing previously undisclosed information on the entire alphabet soup of systemic rescue facilities, and prepare to present our findings shortly, we would like to facilitate the crowdsourcing effort in perusing the data which the Fed has made prohibitively difficult to access (only distributed on physical CD), by uploading the entire data dump at the following link.
Our very preliminary question is whether the Fed really expects the US public to believe it does not keep track of the collateral it lends Discount Window money against, and if that rhetoric question is false, then why is collateral data not disclosed?

Link not working?
Not on my end. Either bandwidth consumed by too many people at once or...(place tin foil atop the head)
Dr.
You mean you take you tin foil hat off during the day? Are you nuts?
It's downloading for me. Perhaps its because I switched to a silver-foil hat.
Also, good job FED. Love the PDF format and craptic naming scheme.

Internet p0rn is so 1990's... I thought that fad would fade by now.
Speaking of Porn, who's the "Jack off" in the advertising block that keeps showing up.
What a puke, whoops, that's what his wife must do when she thinks of sucking on it.
Oh, yeah. Thanks for the download Tyler. Will be reading for the next year. 5 minute download on highspeed. Whooo.
Malikai,
Just regular tin foil hats here, and the download worked. However, I'm too afraid to open them for fear that some criminal syndicate Wall Street banker will receive a signal that I have opened a file.
I cannot have anything happen to the breeding pair of unicorns I picked up at the ranch yesterday. They are looking in the window at me and smiling even now --:)

Shit. I've been using Saran Wrap.
They seriously only provided it in PDF? Assholes.
Wait, I though tin foil hats as an indication of nuts, but then again...
My brother is a paramedic and he showed me the roll of tin foil that is kept on the ambulance. It is indeed used to calm down patients who are nuts by making hats for all in the squad to wear.
If Bernanke began to parade around wearing a tin foil hat, I may begin to feel better about the whole economic situation.
I'd feel happier if he wore a plutonium hat!
Well said SG - and we just happen to know of a place where such a hat can be procured....even comes with FREE ONE WAY AIRLINE TICKETS to FUKUSHIMA, accommodations at the Daichi facility, & what the hell throw in a year supply of Rice-a-Roni...besides Ben can assist in TD's newest series - Yentervention (for Central Bankers)
It would go hand in hand with the fission process between his ears....
True. At least then he would have an excuse as being a FUCKTARD. That arrogant prick ass motherfucker has been facilitating worldwide hunger, wars of aggression, lowered standards of living for 99.99% of the population while enriching the .01%. When will the Muslims finally call for a Jihad against this financial terrorist? I mean, Benny’s style is in full conflict with Sharia law. Benny is THE infidel.
For FED's eyes only.
Someone needs to throw this in a torrent, and get it up on PirateBay and the like. I'll do it this weekend if no one beats me to it.
Corporate/Bankers version of the Dollar menu at Jack in the Box.
"Yes, I'll take 42 billion tacos, and 21 billion Jumbo Jacks - Extra Sauce....You're total will be 2 dollars and 16 cents at the second window....can I just pay you Tuesday, for my hamburgers today? Sure, no problem......one more thing, please don't tell anyone I am shopping off the dollar menu, I need to keep up my image, you know?"
120mb file on a fiber-optic network and it's still downloading 4 minutes later.
Things that make you go hmmm...
obama is busted...SS number from CT...denninger
As soon as I saw the name "Orly Taitz" I stopped reading.
Seriously, how many fakes has she claimed is the real certificate!!!eleventyone11 by now?
this guy got the SS number
Retired Air Force Col. Gregory Hollister impersonated Obama with the Selective Service and managed to get a card with President Obama’s Selective Service information on it, a blogger posted on gratewire.com last week.
Well, let's hope they draft his ass; damn, I forgot we don't have a draft. Barry will probably skate before they ram it through. Try another angle
no matter what, Orly Taitz or not, Obama is hiding something and getting a lot of help doing it which is a felony. So the only questions are these:
1 - will the truth ever be known?
2 - will the gaggle of criminals ever see a minute of jail time?
my guess, NO on both counts.
Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.Albert Einstein
Unable to scan file for viruses
Boy, Bernanke is good . . .
I can't get it to download. It says it is unable to scan for viruses due to technical difficulties. When I click "download anyway", it spins its wheels for a fraction of a second, and then the progress bar disappears, but there is no download.
I saw Geitner do that.
Do you have several hundred megabytes of free space on your disk drive?
Can somebody run this puppy through a word cloud generator?
done, here is the cloud: WEALTH - SUSTAINABLE - PROVEN - GREAT - HEALTHY - SOUND - FANTASTIC - PATRIOTIC - SOLUTION - ACTION - UNBREAKABLE - SMART...
BUY! BUY! BUY! BUY!
Bye bye...
Google censoring it... prolly need to put it on wikileaks.
Nope Bittorrent. Seriously.
Google wont let my computer scan this for a viruses. seems a bit strange to me. Anyone one else having this problem?
This file is like Krypton...
The arrogence.
Shut the fuck up, you insolent little bitch. I'll wager that you're not even a billionaire.
F**K GOOGLE!
same here - let's give google a minute to digest that file
Good old Cananada will host it!
Still slow as shite, but I've almost got the whole thing now.
Got it. 895 Files, 32 Folders!

I was GOOGLED,,,!!!! everyone must be locked up....LOWEST volume day of the year on its WAY TODAY!!!!!

Muss say that the delivery method is a very childish last ditch middle finger by the FED. But what else should we have expected ?
your government hacks on your behalf
Holy f*ck! Every bank in the world was borrowing from Fed discount window in 2009!
That is a great headline.
ZH: Financial journalism done right.
Absolute transparency, as promised
IDK if this is what you are referring to sarcarstically or not, but I didn't
beleive this untill i saw it with my own eyes. They gave the guy Another Fucking Medal.

I'm laughing through my tears.
That really is all one can do at this point.
Oh, what shitheads !!! No index, no way to search,,,,900 pdf files.....Fuck them..Suck my dick you little Princeton shithead.....
I'm working on that right now. I'm thinking I'll extract them all to xml and take it from there. If people want it, I'll put it up on a torrent or mail it to Tyler for distribution.
Please parse it and put it up on a torrent.
Copy it onto yout PC and tell windows to index it.

Here is just one of the many, many uses of the FED's discount window:
Dist: 02
JPMORGAN CHASE BK NA LMCB 5/1/2008 $11,100,000,000
Must be nice to be TBTF
Here, have some more. I know you like it.
Dist: 02
JPMORGAN CHASE BK NA LMCB 6/5/2008 $6,400,000,000
Spain, Greece, Portugal...don't worry. We have money for you...
Not a member of the EU? No problem..a little loan will solve that for you.
Foreign policy: don't bite the hand that feeds you ( Meternicht?)
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN BK THIN 5/9/2008 $1,000
That must have been a systemic risk huh
It was for a hooker. Sorry, but someone's gotta pay for me trannies.
If the bank ever even existed in the first place
http://www.benfranklinbank.com/ (click on the link and see what you get)
...got to the link by googling the name of the bank. Can't seem to find that bank online, was it a failed institution?
Was liquidity soooooooo tight that a bank had to scramble to the discount window for $1,000?
Bears better turn MS and GS red by the close, otherwise, they are going to be out of time to stop this bull run off the recent lows.
If this disasterous PIIGS bank news can't stop this run, I don't know what can.
BBVA and STD are already down 4 days in a row, bears need to flush those stocks now.
Bull Run....you make me fucking laugh.....A bull is a beast that will run over you then gore you for fun...watching MS melt up on the lowest volume day of the year....now that is silly
Link works fine, if you want to download a 129mb file.
Zero Hedge ploughs through 25,000 or so pages of just declassified information
Thanks, Tyler. A lot of people think you're some kind of Typhoid Mary, but you'll always be Evelyn Woods to me.
what the hell is a virus?
Lloyd and Jamie's accounting skills.
If you don't know, you're already dead.
If this is the manner in which the nation's Central Bank maintains it's files relating to hundreds of billions if not trillions of dollars in loans... well, it is certainly an argument to shut it down or at least replace it with a more competent organization. The local girl scouts maintain more organized records on their cookie sales.
It is a rouse for sure. If one were to watch the special on the Federal Reserve on HDTV earlier last week they would have seen the FedNET is the most sophisticated computer control room next to NASA.
This is arrogance beyond belief. They are probably delivering the material required and living up to the letter of the law, but certainly not the spirit. It's garbage that they didn't send it in a more useful format and disingenuous that it's not on their website and only physical delivery of cd. Just another bitch slap to the American people for no good reason other than childish anger at having lost. And he can control inflation? He can't do a single responsible thing or admit he is ever wrong!
Tyler(s): Collateral data was not made available... because the borrowers clearly had insufficient or negative collateral. This system is a house of cards built on thin air.
The fed should be shut down for the way it keeps it books.
OK I'm willing to throw in some time. Downloaded OK. Bound and OCR'd docs. Now searchable. Now what am I looking for?
There is a pesky "NR" in the FX swap section.
FED DUMP, BITCHEZ!
Hell, I opened the first two documents and all I see is JP Morgan Chase to the tune of about $100 Gazillion
WTF?
Sheesh...so slow on the uptake.
J. Dimon is HOT! Got it? So hot, laws do not apply to him. They don't stick. And at $100 gazillion, I suspect you have not seen even a fraction of his good work from '08. And he is worth every penny, baby.
So buy yourself a closed strip mall, give Jamie a call, and learn how to leverage that useless real estate into a Ponzi investment...and short some silver already.
Sheesh...don't you people ever give up?
Collateral Report 11/10/08: 22.45% of the Fed's collateral was domestic equities.

PDCF Collateral Report 20081110 - 20090514.pdf
No collateral info....SURPRISE!
Oh, well, they don't really keep track of that. But, it was there....it was...really.
What a fucking joke. You just knew this was going to be yet another fucking flea circus.
Who's released the files?
Arguably the worst organization of information I have ever encountered... of course this is only coincidence
Looks like JP Morgan's rollover problems in the Asset Backed Commercial Paper market were more serious than previously reported. Billions upon Billions in loans through the Feds ABCP Emergency Credit Program. By far the largest borrower. I am not one to editorialize but the numbers are staggering. Looks like JPM CEO Dimon's late 2007 private meeting with then Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson concerning revival of the ABCP market may have had quite a few benefits for JPM.
Lots data ... must connect the dots before arriving at a conclusions.
Must have been presented this way on purpose.
Question:
Which failed banks got money and are now failed?
Which banks on "watch list" got money?
jal
Which Banks/Corporations got money that didn't ever exist?
excellent question !
My Cache is full ?
Yeah, but you still have street cred.
"FED Dump"
25,000 pages of steaming bullshit
Wow. Talk about incompetence.
I'm beginning to have hellish recalls of their 'sophisticated treasury buying' operations at 33 Liberty using a Commodore 64 and 3 college interns.
The critical key with this data is to analyze it and then be able to factually explain it to even the most average American in a way that causes them to see red and want to engage The Federal Reserve with a newfound appreciation as to how their future and their childrens' futures are being raped.
FOIA Request No. 2010-282/Category 1,2 & 3/20090317-20100301 Primary, Secondary and Emergency Credit Originations and Term Loans

Title "Emergency Credit by Program Type Outstanding on: 3/17/2009" Restricted FR (assuming Federal Reserve??) Total Outstanding $311,655,679,917
Type of Emergency Credit ABCP (??)

Page 4 Type of Emergency Credit IPC- (??)
AIG- 16 entries, all maturing 9/13/2013- outstanding $45,031,443,539
No wonder the Fed said FU to the Maiden Lane bullshit......
All I got for now
How about ZIONS Bank- Primary - $500 million with no collateral listed LOL
Or better yet,
1/4/2008 Calyon Financial (which is not a bank but a brokerage/securities/investment firm) gets millions with no collateral listed. WTF?
Oh, Lordy!!!!!!! I think it is time to ask for Bernanke's resignation along with Treason charges.
Shows how idiotic our Govt is. PDF, wtf, cant they collate this crap or put thison a website. No wonder USA is f'd up,
“NORDEA BK FINLAND PLC NY BR,” which received $25 million on Aug. 16,
thanx ben,
green shoot greetings from Finland
Come on third world internet! 50 kb/s
CPFF (Commercial Paper Funding Facility, a FED entity) needed $238,402,207,000. It is classfied as "Emergency Credit." So the FED itself had an emergency and bought quite a bunch of shitty paper. According to NYFED site, CPFF closed in Feb 2010. Is this crap paper still on the books??
Listed in the "other assets" reporting of course...
Our very preliminary question is whether the Fed really expects the US public to believe it does not keep track of the collateral it lends Discount Window money against, and if that rhetoric question is false, then why is collateral data not disclosed?
Tyler, you're asking the exact same questions everyone is. I'll be plowing through it this weekend. And I don't buy the bullcrap from them either..thanks for the link.
END THE FED.
A well-known tactic of big case litigators is to make such a dump in discovery if they knew the data would be required to be disclosed eventually. In an antitrust suit brought by the justice department a few decades ago, IBM delivered trailer truck loads of documents so as to inundate the department for months or years. Ultimately the court required IBM to develop a data base of the documents. When the Regan administration came in, the suit was dismissed as, among other reasons, too expensive to justify prosecution for a result that was not especially useful. On the day the case was dismissed by the judge the data tapes were destroyed. Potential private plaintiffs appeared before the judge the next day asking him to preserve the data index, but (gee, I'm sorry judge, we erased them yesterday as there was no order then to preserve them . . .) it was too late.
The Fed's stonewalling because the sheeple "can't handle the truth" even after the SCOTUS ruling, will continue in as many ways as they can get away with, even if for a short period to make the relevalation become less potent.
So when are yous citizens going to knock down the Non Federal Reserve building,brick for brick/block by block.???
Should be soon,once the Little Macs run out
(shrunken Big Macs)
Hey ,it's you's allowing this to happen,not me...
They won't even let me over the border,thank ali,ali.
Time to bring the Non Fed down...
