Submitted by Simon Black of Sovereign Man blog,
About once or twice a month for the past few years, it's been a steady ritual of mine to conduct a Google search for the words "all-time high" and "all-time low".
The results provide an interesting big picture perspective on what's happening in the world. A recent search returned the following results:
"Banks Net Income in 1Q Hits All-Time High of $40.3 Billion"
"US equity markets remain near all-time highs"
"NYSE Margin Debt Hit New Record, Surpasses 2007 Peak"
"Foreign holdings of U.S. debt at all-time high"
"Beef prices hit all-time high... and expected to rise."
"Gasoline prices down slightly after hitting all-time high"
"Premiums for employer-sponsored health insurance reached an all-time high"
"Airline fees hit all-time high"
"Tuition debt reaches all-time high"
"Unpaid student loans reach all-time high in US"
"Junk bond yields near all-time lows"
"Number of self-employed hits all time low: Report"
"US consumer confidence near all-time high"
"French consumer confidence at an all-time low"
"European unemployment hits all-time high"
"European Bank cuts interest rate to all time low"
"China business optimism at all-time low"
"Asian gold demand to hit all-time quarterly high: World Gold Council"
The conclusions we can draw from these headlines seem rather obvious.
1. Inflation is here. It's understated in official numbers, but from food to fuel to tuition and travel, prices are rising.
2. Such inflation is also fanning the flames of asset prices, both stocks and bonds. And it's great for bank profits.
3. On the other side of the world, these trends are making Chinese manufacturers quite nervous. And Asia is reacting by stocking up on gold instead of paper currency.
4. Europeans get it too: these are not prosperous times.
5. People in the US don't seem to get it at all. Despite so many warning signs, the paper currency rise in equities has blinded most folks to the house of cards reality that exists all around them.
Candidly, the data points to a rather dangerous forecast... that people will go to bed one night believing that everything is just fine. And then wake up the next morning like the Japanese-- to a stock market crash. Or worse... like the Cypriots-- to a full-blown crisis.
At least the headlines do show a bit of good news--
"CNBC viewership at all-time low"
"American Idol Season 12 Finale Hits Record Low"

I googled "fuckhead" and Ben Bernanke popped up. Whodathunk?!?!?!?!
I googled "communistic narcacistic homosexually leaning always late lying lazy muslim" and you would never believe whose picture came up.
I'm drawing a blank.
Did you have a vasectomy?
Um, that's *shooting* a blank...
Wow, I Googled "All time high" and Lindsay Lohan popped up!
yeah... google does analyze your past searches and adjust your results according your profile....
.
that sucks dude........... I was only late once.
Google 'Richard Cranium' for the same results.
google "who owns" and let me know what pops up first in the predictive search bar......................................then try the same thing on bing...............
Most excellent results! There may be hope yet.
I googled "pussy cat" and all I got was naked woman.... while my kids where sitting next to me expecting pictures of cats....
WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD?!?!?
Here in the states we have a new cartoon about a transexual to start airing very soon. I highly recommend your kids watch it. Should be an excellent example for them to take direction from.

That's nothing. I once googled granny smith apples, and I was directed to a site called Granny Smith'S Apples..........eeeewwwwwww
Sudden, you might have forgotten to add "cat"...very common Freudian slip.
lol.
I've got one. I'm thinking about taking up model rocketry, and to build a rocket, one needs paper tubing. So I googled "rocket tube".
GAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!! My eyes!
NEXT TIME, HINT A WARNING!!
AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!
You should only use red tubes.
Estes Industries (You're welcome!)
"...I'm not that man they think I am at all; oh, no, no, no....
All I get on page 1 is cat or CATerpillar related info. Google must know your secret browsing habits.
"google does analyze your past searches and adjust your results according your profile...." };~P>
:)
It would probably help if you deleted and blocked Googles cookies.
I tried the same thing with mixed results. Common denominator seemed to be hair
Stupidity is expecting a country that elected the Obowel Movement twice to understand basic economics........
Google monitors your surfing tendacies and serves up search results best fitted.
currently have "fitness singles" and "zoosk" ads on the side.....I may need to find a secure browser. My penchant for......women.....is showing.
A tip for all of you... there's a free download called Don't Track Me. You have to tell it specifically not to let google track you, but it works. Also blocks many pop ups. Not selling it, just a user. Hope it helps.
Other good free extensions are Ghostery and AdBlock:
http://www.ghostery.com/
http://adblockplus.org/
Ghostery is an eye-opener...
Using ixquick as your default search engine is nice too. Gives you google results thru a proxy that does not allow google to keep search records for your personal account.
+1 use em both myself.
Oh, and startpage as a search engine - uses google but doesn't keep any IP's or other info.
For more secure searching...
I hear ya. I've got CougarLife.com and Trade Bitcoin! Why would I want to trade bitcoin!!!
"modern problems." gold won't help you here because if the problem is too big for paper then by definition it's too big for gold too. while the USA still maintains it status as consumer of last resort the other idea that "it doesn't make anything anymore" is so ridiculous it can only be disproven by those who will be made see the confluence of massive production increases, free dollar creation and a massive credit contraction. i can count three Super States suddenly emerging within the USA alone...all looking like they'll be able to sustain these "exceptionally low rates" for an "exceptionally long period of time" but we'll see. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tipping_Point
If you look at interest rate tendancies from financial crisis all over the world you will see that rates natuarally go way up during crisis. That's what happened in the Asian financial crisis, the Russian crisis in 1998, the S American crisis, Argentina, ect ect ect.
Your wrong assumption that rates fall during crisis is what bubbles are made of.
While your examples are correct, the U$D is the reserve currency at the moment. I think when the market crashes there will be a brief period when people move their money from stocks to treasuries, it will be a pavlovian reaction. However, from there i think you will see rates spike quickly in the US as people realize that the fed is going to react by printing even more than they already are. The real question is if the chinese attempt to float a gold linked currency at the same time, if they do the U$(D) is fucked, if they don't and people are left to choose between U$D, euro, and yen I don't think the outcome will be as obvious. Well not obvious except for the fact gold is going up at a high rate as soon as the collateral calls on everything else slow.
It doesn't matter that it is a reserve currency. The Soveit Union couldn't keep its currency together.
-The Euro is a creditor currency with no net trade deficit.
-The Eurozone has more gold then the US
-The Eurozone is China's biggest trading partner
-The ECB floats gold on the asset side of its balance sheet on the first line
-The ECB is a non nation state central bank
-The ECB has one mandate, price stability
-The ECB's purchases are equal to 3.5% of EZ GDP. The US's purchases are 22% of US GDP
So yes, the answer is obvious. It's just that nobody knows it yet and is piling onto one side of the boat like usual.
+1 but I'm unable to select the upvote.
Cheers
I sometimes use Google too. I googled 'simon black sovereign man' and it autocompleted to 'simon black sovereign man scam'... I kid you not. Try it yourself. Here was the first entry:
http://public.worldfreemansociety.org/index.php/forum/198-sprituality-ex...
I like what Simon has done here. Simple, yet encompassing. Great method of reading world macro. We often get bogged down by focusing on rates or some other piece of the equation, at the expense of the big picture.
I enjoy his posts too. Whether he is a scammer or not I don't know.
Google has everyone by the balls.
Simon is like every other writer... You read it, weight it, take the facts(verify if need need be), value the opinions as you will.
This one in particular is rather good. Other posts vary.

Looks like the Feudal Lords are on track for their NWO.
One day you'll wake up, and get to meet your new bosses and their new money: RFID implants. Gold? They won't need no stinking gold! Not in the Club Fed Zone anyway. /s
Who uses google except through Tor?

Take Profits & Get Short
http://chartistfriendfrompittsburgh.blogspot.com/2013/06/take-profits-get-short.html
If you can't proceed on robust info or on trust, you must proceed on Principles. E.g.
If you want to hedge with gold or silver, make sure you hold the actual metal - at home or location(s) that aren't too far.
If you hold stocks, make sure you hold the actual Certificate from the company, and not 'shares' in a broker's ledger. If/when they go belly up, so do your 'shares'.
If you hold government bonds, make sure you have the certificate from the Treasury, not 'shares' with your broker (mutual fund).
Else, you get what your gullibility and laziness deserves: little or nothing.
"American Idol Season 12 Finale Hits Record Low"
Well, the news isn't all bad.
And they weren't talking about the ratings!
"CNBC viewership at all-time low"
CNBC gets paid by Goldman Sachs, They don't need no stinkin viewership.
American Idol is for idiots. There are fewer idiots as people prepare to take the Federal Government back from the globalists and corporate monopolies.
Arrest Eric Holder. Kick Bernanke and Krugman out of the country all the way to China, --Bitchez
Julian Assange may have targeted Google for severe criticism in a Sunday NY Times’ opinion piece but in doing so he has outlined the incredible tyranny and repressiveness that has become the American Empire.
Assange’s criticism centers on the new book, “The New Digital Age,” which he calls “a startlingly clear and provocative blueprint for technocractic imperialism, from two of its leading witch doctors, Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen, who construct a new idiom for United States global power in the 21st Century. This idiom reflects the ever closer union between the State Department and Silicon Valley, as personified by Mr. Schmidt, the executive chairman of Google, and Mr. Cohen, a former adviser to Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton who is now director of Google Ideas.”
Writes Assange:
“The authors offer an expertly banalized version of tomorrow’s world: the gadgetry of decades hence is predicted to be much like what we have right now — only cooler. ‘Progress’ is driven by the inexorable spread of American consumer technology over the surface of the earth. Already, every day, another million or so Google-run mobile devices are activated. Google will interpose itself, and hence the United States government, between the communications of every human being not in China (naughty China). Commodities just become more marvelous; young, urban professionals sleep, work and shop with greater ease and comfort; democracy is insidiously subverted by technologies of surveillance, and control is enthusiastically rebranded as ‘participation’; and our present world order of systematized domination, intimidation and oppression continues, unmentioned, unafflicted or only faintly perturbed.”
Praise for the Google book comes in from Kissinger, Tony Blair, and even former CIA Director Michael Hayden. The Google authors view the Arab Spring negatively and fret over Iran and North Korea while, Assange points out, avoiding meaningful criticism of Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Good riddance CNBC, idiots.
They've got such an easy job. Report on the markets and keep your crazy-ass liberal propaganda agenda to yourselves.
Idiots!
Methinks you have confused CNBC and MSNBC.
the build out in multifamily residential has already cooled down the rent market. in the broad context there is overcapacity in just about everything. the Fed is fighting asset deflation, with the rather cool understanding that rising asset values (core inflation) does not translate to consumer inflation CPI, never has never will, [and corporations have no pricing power, but are able to boost earnings through financial engineering] the Feds big mistake is missing the deflation in credit. since credit is money, that great depression moment awaits them [us] when money simply disappears. the first thing a new fed chief needs to do is price interest rates according to risk not according to some formula for economic growth [hint you can't create economic growth if core inflation and consumer inflation do not translate, and if credit deflation continues unchecked] ironically the fed could raise rates without causing inflation but the rich banksters have balance sheet problems.
Fuck Google filter bubbles. Use duckduckgo.
There is no "privacy" in cyberspace. Never has been. never will be. Get smart. Get over it.

Don't be deceived by the "American Idol Season 12 Finale Hits Record Low" headline. People that stopped watching American Idol are just watching other shows like The Voice instead. Those people are still plugged in.
So where do we all go when ZH gets taken down. seriously, is there a plan.
We all go stealth, because it's time to stop talking and start doing.

I googled "High All the Time" and a pic of Cheech and Chong showed up.
Sorry, I no longer patronize the G o o g l e brand.
G o o g l e free since last year and luvin it.
http://www.scrubtheweb.com or http://www.scrubtheweb.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=all-time+high
Incidentally...
I get James Bond when I search for "all time high" as my first link. Although, yes, I got several of those financial ones coming after it.
Check out the lyrics, and references, I was tickled. (NB: this is why you use YouTube continually; Google thinks I'm a music fan at the moment, although perhaps I detect a bit of snark from the all seeing eye in there. Well played Ma'am, well played).
Let me Google that for you
In the most searches, the WIKIPEDIA will pop up as the firstmost entry... its sibling agency office is guaranteed the first-row seat :D
wow this dude wrote an article about his google searches? Not exactly pithy analysis.
