Just Twelve WTF Charts
Sometimes you just have to sit back, gaze at some charts, and say WTF...
1. The Dow Transportation Index rallied from Q4 in 2012 and peaked on 3/19; it did the same in 2013...
2. The Dow Transportation Index is diverging in 2013, just as it did in 2012...
3. Ten-Year Treasury yields have followed the same pattern each year since the crisis started - a modest correction full of hope that the recovery and growth is here followed by a collapse in yields...
4. The S&P 500 is tracking almost remarkably tight to 2012's... perfectly normal efficient markets would do this, right?
5. And 2012-13's US Macro data has traced a very similar pattern to 2011-12's with the latest little hope spur seeming to fade very rapidly now...
6. High Yield credit markets appear to be yelling the same warnings they did in 2011 and 2012...
7. Homebuilders have been the backbone of this recovery as a new bubble in housing is blown... which looks remarkably like the last one...
8. The omnipotent stock of the recovery - AAPL - appears to be tracing the same path of the omnipotent stock of the late 90s - MSFT...
9. The Nikkei 225 has been on a tear. We've seen this kind of hopefulness before... didn't end so well...
10. The recovery from the S&P 500's 2009 lows looks intriguingly similar to the recovery off the 2003 lows... it's different this time though
11. The Dow's 1930 crash and recovery appears to provide a rather similar 'template' for 2009-2013's crash and recovery...
And of course...
12. Bitcoin in all its glory...

Somebody ask Max Keiser how he feels making more money than Jamie Dimon is making on a daily basis.
Has he turned into one of them now that he is on the "Other Side?"
Without a spiritual reconnection every attempt to reboot the economy is doomed. The medium of exchange can no longer be the medium for change, debt can no longer be the means by which we are bound to one another.
"debt can no longer be the means by which we are bound to one another" this is the most commercially oriented view I've read since ages - yes, you definitely need more spirituality in your life, imho
I doubt that most people on this planet would understand what you mean with this sentence of yours

-It's the bugs, more nails please
I do not mean that debt shoud not exist. What I mean is that debt cannot be the yoke it has become. Debt should be the means by which one party earns a return ontheir capital and by which the other is enabled to undertake a project for his own betterment. Mutuality in transactions has been greatly damaged in economic exchange at least IMHO.
Sorry if I was not very clear but I try to abstain from long winded rants in the interests of brevity.
If you think I still need more spirituality in my life, I can agree with that too. My journey is still an ongoing one. I hope you have completed or close to completing yours.
Common enemy is here. This should be bringing the people together. It does for no other reason than survival's sake. You find strength in numbers.
Media is the issue here. The ~town crier~ is providing information which is inaccurate, late or distorted in factual details. Unless you have the correct information, you must freeze in place, because it is the unknown one fears. The element of surprise is essential when it comes revealing to a nation there will be no turning back. And forward is into a hell called poverty.
There will be attempts to prevent large group meetings. Monitoring habits and contacts will end in a profile of you. Wrong place, wrong time. A wild-hair-up-the-ass moment of curiosity that leaves a trail, a phase we grow out of, a 6 month drinking binge - all could be misconstrued and used to label one a person who is anti-govt. In a country where there are 4 parties, a choice of one rather than the other is not anti - govt. it is anti policy.
This is a psychological operation complete with publicity stunts and paid actors and actresses who have devoted their lives to zionism and its cause - centralization and full ownership. the war with demolish the already ruined outdated habitat complete the job. Start over.
Conversations and research devoted to this endeavor gave me hobbies and full time jobs. Based on deceipt is is doomed to fail. It is a pipe dream. And we are all going to pay a hefty price for taking bankers and politicians, those who feel the need to use slight-of-hand to gain their riches, at their word. The entire globe (other than Iceland) is an absolute horror show.

The one missing chart is a simple, caricaturist line drawiing of Bernanke in profile that almost exactly lines up with that of Greenspan, which, incidentally, is why I might be an outlier in believing we'll see, buried deep in the Fed Minutes today, a very, very mild yet unmistakable "irrational exuberance" style comment, as the Fed boyz don't want to see a 25% Dow by early June. Enough for a 175 point selloff post-minutes, nothing major.
Bitcoin chart look like silver in the 70s.
I don't understand chart number 11... In 1934, the Dow wasn't close to new high, was it ?
