Guest Post: Does The Trail Of Dead Bankers Lead Somewhere?
Submitted by Michael Snyder of The Economic Collapse blog,
What are we to make of this sudden rash of banker suicides? Does this trail of dead bankers lead somewhere? Or could it be just a coincidence that so many bankers have died in such close proximity? I will be perfectly honest and admit that I do not know what is going on. But there are some common themes that seem to link at least some of these deaths together.
First of all, most of these men were in good health and in their prime working years.
Secondly, most of these "suicides" seem to have come out of nowhere and were a total surprise to their families.
Thirdly, three of the dead bankers worked for JP Morgan.
Fourthly, several of these individuals were either involved in foreign exchange trading or the trading of derivatives in some way. So when "a foreign exchange trader" jumped to his death from the top of JP Morgan's Hong Kong headquarters this morning, that definitely raised my eyebrows.
These dead bankers are starting to pile up, and something definitely stinks about this whole thing.
What would cause a young man that is making really good money to jump off of a 30 story building? The following is how the South China Morning Post described the dramatic suicide of 33-year-old Li Jie...
An investment banker at JP Morgan jumped to his death from the roof of the bank's headquarters in Central yesterday.
Witnesses said the man went to the roof of the 30-storey Chater House in the heart of Hong Kong's central business district and, despite attempts to talk him down, jumped to his death.
If this was just an isolated incident, nobody would really take notice.
But this is now the 7th suspicious banker death that we have witnessed in just the past few weeks...
- On January 26, former Deutsche Bank executive Broeksmit was found dead at his South Kensington home after police responded to reports of a man found hanging at a house. According to reports, Broeksmit had “close ties to co-chief executive Anshu Jain.”
- Gabriel Magee, a 39-year-old senior manager at JP Morgan’s European headquarters, jumped 500ft from the top of the bank’s headquarters in central London on January 27, landing on an adjacent 9 story roof.
- Mike Dueker, the chief economist at Russell Investments, fell down a 50 foot embankment in what police are describing as a suicide. He was reported missing on January 29 by friends, who said he had been “having problems at work.”
- Richard Talley, 57, founder of American Title Services in Centennial, Colorado, was also found dead earlier this month after apparently shooting himself with a nail gun.
- 37-year-old JP Morgan executive director Ryan Henry Crane died last week.
- Tim Dickenson, a U.K.-based communications director at Swiss Re AG, also died last month, although the circumstances surrounding his death are still unknown.
So did all of those men actually kill themselves?
Well, there is reason to believe that at least some of those deaths may not have been suicides after all.
For example, before throwing himself off of JP Morgan's headquarters in London, Gabriel Magee had actually made plans for later that evening...
There was no indication Magee was going to kill himself at all. In fact, Magee’s girlfriend had received an email from him the night before saying he was finishing up work and would be home soon.
And 57-year-old Richard Talley was found "with eight nail gun wounds to his torso and head" in his own garage.
How in the world was he able to accomplish that?
Like I said, something really stinks about all of this.
Meanwhile, things continue to deteriorate financially around the globe. Just consider some of the things that have happened in the last 48 hours...
-According to the Bangkok Post, people are "stampeding to yank their deposits out of banks" in Thailand right now.
-Venezuela is coming apart at the seams. Just check out the photos in this article.
-The unemployment rate in South Africa is above 24 percent.
-Ukraine is on the verge of total collapse...
Three weeks of uneasy truce between the Ukrainian government and Western-oriented protesters ended Tuesday with an outburst of violence in which at least three people were killed, prompting a warning from authorities of a crackdown to restore order. Protesters outside the Ukrainian parliament hurled broken bricks and Molotov cocktails at police, who responded with stun grenades and rubber bullets.
-This week we learned that the level of bad loans in Spain has risen to a new all-time high of 13.6 percent.
-China is starting to quietly sell off U.S. debt. Already, Chinese U.S. Treasury holdings are down to their lowest level in almost a year.
-During the 4th quarter of 2013, U.S. consumer debt rose at the fastest pace since 2007.
-U.S. homebuilder confidence just experienced the largest one month decline ever recorded.
-George Soros has doubled his bet that the S&P 500 is going to crash. His total bet is now up to about $1,300,000,000.
For many more signs of financial trouble all over the planet, please see my previous article entitled "20 Signs That The Global Economic Crisis Is Starting To Catch Fire".
Could some of these deaths have something to do with this emerging financial crisis?
That is a very good question.
Once again, I will be the first one to admit that I simply do not know why so many bankers are dying.
But one thing is for certain - dead bankers don't talk.
Everyone knows that there is a massive amount of corruption in our banking system. If the truth about all of this corruption was to ever actually come out and justice was actually served, we would see a huge wave of very important people go to prison.
In addition, it is an open secret that Wall Street has been transformed into the largest casino in the history of the world over the past several decades. Our big banks have become more reckless than ever, and trillions of dollars are riding on the decisions that are being made every day. In such an environment, it is expected that you will be loyal to the firm that you work for and that you will keep your mouth shut about the secrets that you know.
In the final analysis, there is really not that much difference between how mobsters operate and how Wall Street operates.
If you cross the line, you may end up paying a very great price.

When you are doing Gods work you begin to believe that you cannot die, so you decide to test it.
And what about all the high ranking military officers being fired for petty reasons?
Something BIG and BAD is about to happen.

Every time I post this, another banker dies. I feel just awful about it.
What do you call a series of 7 banker suicides?
A good start.
Doing God's work?
I'd figure that if there were a god then surely evil bankers would experience some bad karma rather than all the poor defenseless children who get killed via dropped bombs in order to help pave the way for "democracy."
Keep up the good work.
72 virgins? In Atari T-shirts and all?
Now you're making ME want to off myself!
Also the two former SEALS who were found dead on a ship off the Seychelles. Two at the same time? Very bad.
Not just any ship - Tom Hank's ship
So, Hanky Panky?
Something very big is about to come into being and it will be nasty.
I know!!! Michael Snyder says so, in 20 different ways on a daily basis!!!
I'm not ready for no asteroid! OR for Godzilla!
I'll be good, I promise!
If I had a conscious and worked for Dimon, I'd probably commit suicide as well.
All roads lead to The Criminal Federal Reserve, JP Morgan Chase, HSBC, IMF etc... in Espionage with the NSA, CIA & The Global Criminal Oligarch Cabal Bankster Intelligence Crime Syndicate for a controlled, predictable Global Economy after the crash. Very Compartmentalized.
PM smackdown in progress! Too bad it ain't gonna last. Buy now if you haven't already.
But you are unconcious if you work for JPM Demon. No exit.
Every time you hear a "splat", another banker gets his wings.

Thats a great comment. WB could do somthing with that
Criminal syndicate!
If I had a concious and worked for Dimon, I'd shoot the fucker in the head, not kill myself fer chris sakes!
If you'd really learned well from him you'd kill him.
Oh... and eat him too.
If you'd really learned well from him you'd kill him and eat him, but not before taking out a 100x levered insurance policy on his untimely death, with a 5x multiplier in case of canibalism.
That's the only way to take the position. It's in the board's bylaws.
Tell that to Hank Paulson, Robert Rubin and Jon Corzine (Corzine is set to run MYRA for Obama).
We are all the victims of a great embazelment in virtually everything going on in life, whether it be the news, food, pharmaceuticals, politics, war, stock markets etc.
Bankers are dispensible and a few untimely deaths could be used to send a message to any banker thinking he can be the Edward Snowden of the banking world.
It's just a theory.
Or maybe its all part of the new Bread and Circuses campaign.
Behold fellow citizens the new Bread, Bankers and Circuses act.
Coming to a banker skyscraper in a town near you.
Don't be fooled, because when they give you what they think you want, then they have you right where they want you.
Sadly, it's more likely to be that they give you what you thought you wanted. Then buyer's remorse sets in.
Or, they plant the seed years or decades in advance through the medium of hollywood, television, magazines, newspapers, and even internet surfing.
Its genuenly hard to determine if what you want is really what you thought you wanted if you spend a large amount of your time being immersed by the main stream media complex.
Everything is manipulated by the media to shape your view of the world whether you hang left or right or hang limp wristed somewhere in the middle.
The reason I think bankers jumping is part of the Matrix is because the one's that have jumped so far are so far down the scale as to be inconsequential.
We have yet to see any real big tycoons offer up their lives to Baphomet yet, even though this is still a real possibility. Maybe what we've seen so far is just the opening act. Something to distract the populace and whet our appetite for blood while they continue to implement their plans behind the curtain. What's a few low level bankers to them?
A few bankers jumping, even a few big fish giving all out of hundreds of thousands worldwide is a statistical error.

Welcome to the Grand illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.
But don't be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they're just someone else's fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it's a Grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it's a Grand illusion

I stopped at the site of the "mbankment" spot by the tacoma narrows, found piece of police tape still stuck to fence. It was a 50 ft. drop, and homes within' 30 ft. at ground level. Also a traffic cam that has that whole walkway with in it's view.
he either parked his car next to the spot where he jumped or parked at the only place available (where I did) 1/2 mile away. Strange finding by me at the site was a spread sheet buget for summerwinds 2014 condos that showed a $4000.00 loss a month. folded wet up against the jersey barrier on the walkway. the only other place to jump and die is off the bridge and you wont find a body that jumps from there. you can see the white wall he fell over here......http://www.wsdot.com/traffic/tacoma/default.aspx?cam=1158

The trail leads to a few job openings seeking highly motivated, well bred coke addicts with connections, sociopathic tendencies required.
And expensive hookers.
The best salesman in my firm was an 18 year old cokehead ... sociopathic doesn't start to describe the situation there ,, one of the old timers there used to be a psychiatrist who was a decent manipulator.
If you haven't already done so, you might check out the book "The Sociopath Next Door". It goes into the psychology of the type. You would likely recognize the salesman you mentioned.
Politicians also often rank high in such tendencies, especially those at the highest levels of national power. Absolutely no conscious or genuine sympathy/empathy for anyone else, including their own families. Sees others as objects to be manipulated. Self destructive and in constant need of the next thrill (not enough stiimulation from real human relationships). Very dangerous to themselves and those around them.
If only we could start piling up dead politicians and then hedgies, it would be a trifecta
"If you haven't already done so, you might check out the book "The Sociopath Next Door". It goes into the psychology of the type. You would likely recognize the salesman you mentioned."
Try "Snakes in Suits: When Sociopaths go to Work" by Robert Hare.
TPTB = sociopaths. I've been preaching it for years.

How come you're not over at the Chinese thread dropping valuable comments like:

Lol. The good news is if there is ever a revolution, ZH has now successfully recruited plenty of front line bodies for the cause. Tyler, Michael synder and Simon black will lead the mindless brigade into the fight for freedom.
Well, one of those entities is a multiple entity, in which case I can't ageee on that. The other two though...
I see dead Banksters...
Yes, I guess it is.
Chindit does have a way with words and he makes some solid points about "the level" of financialists who have met their untimely demise but I don't know anyone who went back to fiat from gold.
He's a fiat guy, a trader, living in the world as he finds it instead of thinking about how it should be...where any risk of capital loss is negated by the fact its simply handed to them, "from us" so you can't blame the contempt.
Besides, nobody shoots themselves seven or eight times in the head & torso, with a nail gun, to commit suicide.
But I upvoted you all the way for fighting ;-)
Thanks. The fighting is gone. The good fighters got shown the door. The rest of us just shout down anyone who questions anything. So in the spirit of Michael Snyder, I will take 2 minutes and cut and paste someone else's good work from this very thread.
""Michael T. Snyder is a graduate of the University of Florida law school and he worked as an attorney in the heart of Washington D.C. for a number of years, before quitting to pursue his life-long dream of being a frothing conspiracy theorist and full-time retard."
this is where we are at. A D.C attorney turned used car salesman. Yes....yes....this man needs to speak for us. he is prolific.

I'm telling you, there's nothing funny about a chainsaw. I got off lucky with a nick cutting through some denims. As sure-footed (in all things) that I am that was too close for comfort. So, as a public announcement: when cutting, wear protective chaps, always!

Reminds me of the mystery of why whales wash up on beaches.
You say the bankers were chemtrailed and HAARPed until they starved to death and couldn't take it anymore...
HA!
and here we thought the aluminum was added to the aerosols to negate our hats.
the barium to penetrate our, well, you know.
Whales wash up on beaches ,, are consumed by sharks and sink to the bottom ... we only see the ones that end up on a beach ,, skews our outlook.
Fave management joke: "There is nothing deeper than whale shit."
It has a few meanings.
I think I just reached enlightenment reading that sentence.
Because they don't have bathrooms?
I swear to God this Michael Snyder fuck is just a psuedonym used by some firm in India Zerohedge has hired to churn out filler material.
Look how many reads/comments these Snyder articles with these titles get. I bash ZH relentlessly for it but from a business perspective I would put them up as well. You see Snyder/Faber/ZH etc. etc. actually make money, and the more scandalous/dramatic the headline the more reads it gets. As for the content of said articles, and the crowd it draws out...Chindit13 said it better than I ever could.
"Look at the other clowns around here. They're already building a grand conspiracy based on the deaths of a junior FX trader, an index arb guy, a code writer and laptop repairman, and a small time title insurer. Yea, those guys are at the heart the multi-trillion dollar financial crisis, bailouts and QE.
Such is the analytical skill level and knowledge of the current Zerohedge crowd that they make Dick Bove seem like a combination of Isaac Newton and Hercule Poirot. As for the schadenfreude...well, that's one more reason why I see little to recommend either Jamie and Lloyd or any of this new crop of losers who frequent Zerohedge.
Hey, I wonder if Tyler will be posting a few of the obituaries of all the stackers who offed themselves since 2011 and since their purchasing power tumbled 30-60%? You know, equal time to elicit the same degree of compassion."
Two twats. Snyder has his own blog, genius. He does good work - you want to take the piss our of him because he's prolific? Twat.
Twat #2: The entire world is circling the drain; you can't get too sensational. But more to the point of your twatness, Snyder admits that he doesn't know what's happening, and it IS out of the ordinary. You got that from the front page blurb, but you still came to read the article and make your twat comment.
Prolific? You mean pathetic. All Snyder does is churn whatever cut and pastes he can find off of other fringe blogs. DAILY. That is prolific to you? Then yes, the quotation absolutely applies to you. Fuckface.
Yo fonz, you didn't get the memo? Quantity > Quality now. "IT'S THE LAW." Looks like we gotta get re-educated.
i dig what foz is saying in some respects but isnt this kinda the way BCCI or whatever it was started along with the vatican banker thing?
sloppy non cut/paste references...sry
@fonz ~ It all started by former ZH posters getting 'offed'... It's now just spreading to lower mezzanine bankers...
You remember that cheers episode when everyone got drunk and got up from their bloomberg terminal and got in a huge bar fight? Me neither.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than to have a frontal lobotomy...
That's an interesting theory, but we can't test it with a traditional roll-call because of the noise in the data set created of the recent suiciding of ZH posters by the Tylers.
I'm getting bored of waiting for a collapse. Peace
Buyingsterling has been on here over 2 years and he thinks synder is the bomb. Some dumb fuckers never get any wiser....
And here we have a good demonstration.
So much name-calling and little substance. Pretty much the kind of response that I've been getting lately.
I wonder, have you ever really written anything here that could possibly look as though it was constructed within your own head (other than name-caling), anything that even comes close to what Fonz writes/contributes?
I may not agree with people on things, but those that bother to try and formulate something of substance that appears to be something that they've actually spent time pondering, well, those people have my respect.
NOTE: I regularly use "Party Pussy" - I fully stand behind my use of this phrase.
@ Fonz:
I think the lack of compassion has more to do with the idea that most of the readers of ZH, (and alt.-media in general), clearly recognize that the banking industry has treated Main St. with utter contempt for generations. To add insult to injury, the banksters proudly display their attitude towards us, each and every time they open their mouths.
Of course, I'm not referring to the cute little teller at the local neighborhood branch office, but rather the Dimon-fein's of the world, who are happily destroying the lives of millions, because of their insatiable appetite for "Moar Paper".
You're right that these guys were "nobodies" in the grand-scheme of things, and that alt-media is grasping at straws here.
As for "goldbug suicide"...the thought never enters my mind; I'm too interested in seeing how it all plays out.
The day Blythe jumps off the JPM building and lands on top of Dimon and they both lay on the street screaming in pain and agony I will cry tears of joy. I promise you that.
@ Fonz:
You and me both, man, but it ain't gonna happen. Not in this lifetime. If and when the house of cards comes tumbling down, they'll be long gone, in countries that offer them asylum with no extradition.
Alt-media is loaded with carnival barkers, who see a "Big Conspiracy" in every damn thing that happens anymore, in an effort to generate ad-click revenue, sell videos, books, newsletters, or other products.
While most of them are well-intentioned, there are plenty of examples of them being detrimental to their own cause, by pandering to their audience(s), and engaging in cheap sensationalism.
8,200 reads and 100 comments and we are just getting warmed up my man, and like I said, I don't blame them one bit. The reality is we are in a depression and everyone has to find a way to keep the lights on. I don't blame Snyder or ZH or anyone else for doing it however they feel they need to do it. Snyder in particular just reeks of bullshit to me.

He's posting in this thread.
Francis is always with us on all threads. His spirit lives on.
Well, parts of him... His bigotry was just a littly too frothy (being married to someone with brown skin I'm a bit on the sensitive side). On the energy and growth front he was spot-on: seems the it was pretty much only he and I that were on this way back when.
it was pretty much only he and I that were on this way back when.
...so always say the self-proclaimed seers...
(just sayin')
bingo. well said Croseus.
what one must come to grips with is that those who instinctively choose to believe that we've been duped have been duped by those who've led the charge in shouting "we've been duped!". (not naming any names *cough* Kill JPM, Buy Silver! *cough*)
the realization that everyone is talking their book is perhaps the next step for many to take. however, that next step may lead to a crossroads where one could realize that the paths in which one has journeyed so far ultimately lead to a pit of quicksand of despair & hopelessness, which is filled with those who may be of like minds, but are either chasing phantoms or stepping on everyone else in order to try to escape with a pocket full of shekels. they don't call it a death spiral for nuthin'.
what i'm wondering these days is which way does the other path lead...that path of the heart.
I'm an optimist by nature (that's a lie, I'm a realist). But things don't crumble at the center first. Maybe we got the start of a trend that will work it's way up the chain.
Little story to illustrate the point:
15 years ago a little company called Xerox was embroiled in a massive accounting scandal that almost sank the company (from which it's never really recovered, despite avoiding collapse). Xerox share price before this: $60. Accounting irregularities started to get noticed here and there. First it was Indonesia. Then South America. No, no, isolated incidents, management said. Then it was Mexico. That's it, that's all there is, they said. Then.. uh oh.. it was the US and Barry Romeril, the CFO, and some others lost their jobs and got their tickets pulled. Massive revenue recognition problems (LIES, in plain language). YEARS of financials had to be restated. By the time it was all over Xerox's stock was $6 a share.
Don't let where it starts bias your judgement on where it might end. Something's up. I doubt any serious conspiracy between these individual incidents. But stress in this vicinity is apparent.
stress in this vicinity is apparent.
all of which is precisely why xerox currently has ursula and amorica has obama.
there is nothing at all amiss.
as far as the 'suicides go, about half of them seem odd, the other half irrelevant and the remaining 2/3rds suspicious.
"But stress in this vicinity is apparent. "
Understatement of the decade?
Not in defense of Xerox, Wall Street and such, but the big sharks are staring at all of them, commanding them to do pretty much as they say else BAM! Lehman.
I really think that the movie Rollover is excatly how it's al going down.
There's no way out. We've ALL been living a Big Lie: that we can have perpetual growth on a finite planet: most folks avoid this discussion at all costs, despite the fact that is THE discussion that we would have to have in order to come to grips with what's going on (we'll instead continue to be distracted by lists of horrors [never finding anything in them that we're responsible for]).
Guillotines, lamp-posts or tree branches would be more appropriate but more likely it will be old age.
Anyone who claims that these banker deaths are coincidence, must also have disbelieved Randy Quaid when he told the world about the Hollywood Star Whackers.
Agree totally. In Live Free of Die Hard the mastermind was killing off the people who made the pieces for his plan. The movie proper began when Justin Long aka Matt Farrell was about to be killed for his part in the plan so all leads would go to a dead end (with the emphasis on "dead") should the authorities possibly trace anything back to a suspect.
That was fiction. Nobody has a team of people involved to mop up these details before/after the scheme has been hatched. Except maybe the US President, The Russian President, Various Prime Ministers and other Presidents and maybe Several Trans-National Corporations and some International Banks.
And just maybe the See Eye Eh?
Who runs lots of the script ideas? Who has since probably the OSS in WW2. I don't watch any of their shit but the glofied SWAT, military-industrial spy state BS on TV and Hollywood. They glorify all these agencies with secret budgets in Hollwyyod's crap movies and TV.
It's definately one thing I tend to agree with you on that ought get a bit of scrutiny... but then again I'm of the mind that the best way to defeat something is to not give it any power/energy (turn away from it, as it can only feed off of you). And, well, the good news is that more an more people are likely going to be unable to afford to pay for being propagandized to as such.
best way to defeat something is to not give it any power/energy (turn away from it, as it can only feed off of you).
if that includes giving it any energy AT ALL (including anger, hate & rage), then +1
Even when he doesn't use lists to write an article, it still ends up as a list, with many list items completely unrelated to the topic.
Lists make one look professional!
When I'm procrastinating on doing something I write a list. This way I look like I'm in heavy contemplation, when I'm in fact drifting from doing what I ought to be doing...
Maybe Snyder is procrastinating on actually getting a life?
I always make the first thing on the list making a list, instant productivity.
If one has the discipline to stick by a checklist, it can be one of the greatest means of productivity.

This keeps up and crab fishing in the Bering Sea will have to forfeit the title of most dangerous job.
And there was the joke by the comedian that his family's business was wiped out during the Great Depression. Jumping off a building, a banker landed on the comedian father's apple cart, smashing the cart to pieces.
Maybe working for JPM gives the idea that people can fly and what you can do is limitless, since obviously JPM's power has been limitless the last few years.
I want to throw myself into the river to//no high rise buildings here....
Never look a gift horse in the mouth....
I remember when my company took out a life insurance policy on me. I kept wondering if they knew something I did not.
See, this is why we need to tighten up OSHA requirements on guys with ties.
Moar regulations!
Forward! ;-)
Maybe the banksters should be required, at all times, to have their ties attached to a safety cable or sumting...
I blame the weather.

These guys probably knew too much for not being in the inner circle of suck asses and cock suckers and were deemed a security risk.
I've been blackballed in decades past for knowing more than the asshole in command. "oh we had to let him go for attitude reasons" etc etc etc. Same shit, bigger stakes.
Or, maybe they just didn't like you.
Nothing to be ashamed of. I've been in that boat.
Was hired by a manager to work a contract position. He was very happy with me for more than 18 months. He wasn't making his boss happy so he was shipped off to a different division. I got a new manager and was fired three weeks later over some political puffery.

I would not discount the possibility of demonic oppression, either.

90% are all traded between the banks...so its a 'structured' House of Cards supported by an intricate Domino Theory, laid on top of Bernanke's Fiat Engine, powered by Hope and Dreams.

The credit and liquidity must be endless and has blinded the financiers.
I think that this is the WINNER.
