White House Reveals Biggest Threat To Russia Yet: "Don't Buy Russian Stocks"
If there is one line that reveals how the Obama administration is perceiving the world, and specifically that it is all through the lens of the manipulated stock market, here it is...
Carney warns of impact on Russian stock market. "If I were you, I wouldn't invest in Russian equities right now."

It appears the market is ignoring their wisdom...

Cut to the chase ZH, is there an ETF to short that bitch?
Western bankers getting ready to implode a foreign exchange again? Oh wait.... or is this "foreign policy" at work? lmao.
So goes the 21 Century US military headed by a corrupt administration with community organizer at the helm.
So then.............. US stocks are safe??????
Right.
This whole ponzi is about to be 'pulled'.
of course they are safe. us stocks are completely disconnected from the reality. they exist in the parallel universe of the federal reserve.
Correct. Obama hadles Putin like its just another day at the office. After a call I bet he puts on his spikes, grumbling about how he'll show putin. Then he hits a round, comes back to the WH for lunch. Has his maids put him in his suit and tie his tie. Does a photo op for Obamacare. Then eats dinner and has some drinks.
I don't think he understands the weight of his actions. Basically all we can hope for now is that he has a JFK moment - or RFK if you will - and understands that a group of the ruling elite actually want thermonuclear war so they can kill off tens of millions of people and move into their 1984 Plan.
I still want one of these..
Most of the shady stockbrokers pushing risky foriegn stocks and bonds on to their clients do so under the guise of 'diversification'. The truth is, diversification only applies to the subset of securities that meet your portfolio's minimum standards. As a rule of thumb, it's probably not a bad idea to stick to US equities, bonds and ETFs since these tend to be of a superior quality and are more likely to be regulated by a repuatable governing body.
You don't want our stocks? Fine. We don't want your treasuries or your dollars.
In Soviet Russia, equities warn you not to buy spin doctor.
Yet more proof that Obama is an amateur, out of his league, out of his depth, sucking hind tit at every turn. What does that say about the rest of us?
or just reading the script.
"reputable governing body" in an oxymoron, you moron.
“regulated by a reputable governing body”.
My thoughts were “Not on this planet!”.
Oh gooddy, MDB is back. I haven't been able to ues my down arrow since the last time I saw him/her or whatever!
u never see fonefuck and milldolldickhead at the same time......hmm
to be reputable, the regulating governing body would have to be outside the US
Since a good portion of the S&P 500's revenues come from overseas, wouldn't pushing American stocks also be considered "shady"? Truth is that any broker who pushed anyone into any baskets of stock probably has some happy customers.
Don't get out much?.....
US market as a percentage of total stock market capitalisation has been declining for the last few decades.....secondly....most banks are on life support in the US and shutting down in countries around the world like Merrill sold its operations to Julius Baer, Lehman closed down, JPM is busy suiciding its staff, Morgan Stanley, GS etc are busy cutting down their staff worldwide, Citi has reduced its staff worldwide by 50% in the last 5 years to name a few.....thirdly, have you ever heard of Samsung or Glaxo or Siemens or Gazprom or ICBC? From 215 out of Top 500 global corporations in 2001, US has shrunk to 132 among Top 500 in 2013. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortune_Global_500 I guess selling Motorala and IBM to Chinese is a superior 'quality' strategy! Until Jon Corzine and Dick Fuld go to jail, what regulation are you talking about? Cheating the public is a time tested investment strategy in the US and UK while in Ireland ans Spain they have sent some financial people to jail and China arrests any CEO or Cabinet Minister if just guilty of corruption not to mention fraud before they even start asking questions and HK and Singapore are coming down hard on bankers. The fear of prosecution is what keeps things, more or less, straight in foreign countries. India is a major exception on that point which is why extremely few Indian corporations appear in the Top 500 list and most are state owned.
It is in the interest of US investors to invest outside of North America. They keep their eyes closed at their own peril, which is why you advocate what the SEC and other Govt bodies write in their text books to be careful when you invest abroad. Haha!
From new diabetic cures and paraplegic equipment to make people walk to radar tech in Israel, electronics from Samsung, Lenovo, Haeir, Huawei and HTC, buyouts by Chinese firms of AMC, large chunks of IBM, iconic buildings in NY and Chicago, Smithfield Foods, Volvo (EU), Motorala, foreigners keep buying in EU and US. Just today Germany allowed a EUR 5.1bn purchase of an energy company by no less than 5 Russian billionaires, of all the people. Canada sold one of its largest energy company Nexen to the Chinese. The profits of all these firms will now start flowing back to China and Russia. Ownership of a company is very important because the profits flow back to the country of origin. Just follow the money!
While in the free and democratic country called USA, all the Top 100 companies with massive cash assets keep it overseas to evade taxes at the cost of the public taxpayer. You call that regulation and leading by moral standards and a superior strategy? It is a complete con game against the gullible US public which is why they - and you - need to promote buying US stocks and other investments!
You please keep your money inside US and see it burn when the foreigners stop investing in both the US stocks as well as its treasuries and when only 10 companies are left in the Top 500 global corporations from America!
Did you write that off the top of your head? Either way, well done.
Yes, get in deep over your head and go nowhere fast in style.........
if you haven't noticed yet, 1984 is here.
more like 1984 on steroids is here
Carney - financial expert extraordinaire!
What did you expect from a Carny?
Why do I feel like I'm at Zanies during amatuer hour?
yeah, buy MFGlobal instead.
BoooYaaaaah!
Russian stocks?
Holy BeeJeesusBatman, these fuckers are gonna get us all killed.
Or enslaved
That has already happened. Pay your taxes....now....or else.
....and sign up for 0zer0care
"...there's already been so much loss of life. Maybe the best thing to do is pull it."
The White house has went full retard, or rather full "Dennis Gartman".
...or full Dennis Rodman.
Oh the horror...
These dumb MFers are talking their way into WWIII.
Shut the fuck up morons.
Now Putin must respond.Oil and gas for any kind of fiat is the next step in this..
Obama is like the spoiled little brat who thinks he always has to get the last word in. Never knows when to STFU.
It just shows how Putin has completely outplayed them, and they know it, and can't stand it. Narcissists are that way. Desperation is on display on all fronts. Economic, 0zer0care, Political (2014 election), and now Foreign Policy/Military. Dangerous times ahead. Plan accordingly.

so ours are immune from any negative consequences of conflict because with have janet manning the printing press now?
Never forget the biggest case of insider trading.. EVER.. by Barack Obama in March 2009:
"Now is a good time to buy stocks."
Yes! She'll set it to "Ludicrous Speed!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygE01sOhzz0
.
You mean Janet Yellen, the Printing Princess, didn't you?
Much wisdom from the greenskeeper, as Janet certainly is "man"ning the printing presses.
pods
Is Carney a licensed securities professional? He must be, to be giving investment advice.
Can he legally trade on insider info like the assholes in Congress? No? Too bad.
I'm sure the SEC will be looking in to it.
hahahaha...thanks for the tip asshole
if you had a fukkin half a brain you wouldn't be working in gov't
these people shouldn't be allowed outside without wearing a helmet
Yes, stock tips from the White House. I'm thinking "don't invest" can be considered an investment advice, and is squarely illegal to do so if Mr Carney does not have the proper licenses to do so.
Yah, they better send Holder after him...... LMAO
Instead of investing in Russian stocks, invest in MyRA. Sage advice from the chief numbnuts.
Long bunkers.
Exactly, what part of "all paper promises go to zero" don't people understand?
WTF??!!
Maybe he means we should all be buying gold instead? :p
If I were a Chinaman in a position of power and somewhat ambitious, I'd be thinking very strongly about flexing my muscles over the territorial areas that I was passionate about. Worst case scenario? Barry tweets a strongly worded condemnation in under 140 characters and hits the golf course.
Plop a few thousand Chinese soldiers in Taiwan and maybe they'll have an overwhelming referendum to rejoin their mainland compatriots also.
Taiwan is the prize, there is no doubt of that. But NKorea is the tool. Watch for the Norks situation to heat up big time, bigger then it has ever been in recent years, so China can leverage "helping" contain the Norks in return for the West abandoning Taiwan. It's Chinese Chess not Checkers.
I suspect his recent increase in greens fees is a way to indicate to the public that he is no longer in charge.
Tylers, you got only half the statement from Carney:
Carney warns of impact on Russian stock market. "If I were you, I wouldn't invest in Russian equities right now. Nor would I buy gold or silver as we constantly attack them as they are a threat to the hegemony of the dollar."
Don't get into a pissing contest with a skunk.
.... and I can get u a real sweet deal on a few trillion worth of low yielding 30Y T Bonds!
Don't buy Micex buy Solyndra.
Fuck carney the cock sucker! If that doesn't tell you to buy every fucking dip I don't know what will. They will prop the S&P up no matter what to show that the U.S.S.A is the only place to invest.
That is Jay "Uncle Tom" Carney to you.
Rubles, too.
Fuck you, Carney.
Carney says - "BTFS&PATH"
Paper tigers tend to wilt when they sweat.
he really is a doofus
i belive the term is "ass clown"
I'm long and hard Ukranian escorts
Wasn't Ghadaffi's nurse a Ukrainian transvestite?
I'm even longer and harder for Ukrainian mothers.
Really Mr Dip Shit...YNDX is doing fine for me today, buy some more Facebook you twerp!! ahh... feel better now. :)
I think he was sending a message, like
"Hey Russia, IT'S ON !!!"
I feel so dam good knowing we have Janet Yellen at the helm.
> Buy 2days phony paper price n Silver
> Buy 2morrow on Yellen BSfest...
LOL, Obama's US a fiscal mess, bankrupt like the Chicago he came from is.
The Russians can connect their software to the stock indexes just like the FED has. With fiat you can easily do that kind of think because basically all that you are doing is temporarily reducing the float. By placing the equities in a temporary state the markets rise . The software then slowly offloads the stocks back into the market.
That is what the US FED does. Russia can do the same if they haven't done so yet.
So the President is guess what? He is fucking lying if you can believe that.
Fuck the Carney Barker; what are Issa, Pelosi, McCain and the other uber-rich Congressional fat-cat whores buying or selling right now?
Carney trying to compete with Cramer.
Funny.
So the beggar outside the bankruptcy court is giving financial advice.
Makes as much sense as anything else right now.
What the hell was Obama doing during the 80's when the rest of us were worried about getting nuked all the time? It is like he has no memory.
he must have been.. "studying"
Inhaling.
Fuck You Carney!
This cunt actually gave that "advice". What a douche!
Innocent and defenseless lives hang in the balance ... and the liberals focus on money & materialism - as usual! Very nice!
Another proclamation via the Carnival Barker from the arrogant, narcissistic, pathological lying, illegal alien kenyan muslim sociopathic fudge packer in chief.... let the sheeple eat cake while it enjoys its tax payer funded grand imperial golf life style and $17K dresses for the wookie..... is this a great country or what?
Tell that to the HFT algos, not me... I'm just a poor schlep with bars of worthless silver at the bottom of a lake. But if you're the day-trading type, then instead of Russian equities, here's one from the MSN just a few minutes ago that wil provide you with an alternative... anothe WTF moment presented to you by the squids and vampires:
3 reasons to tap your home equity to purchase stocksAs property values rise, so does the number of people taking out second mortgages. When done right, it's a savvy money move. For one thing, it diversifies the core value of many people's largest asset.

Carney sounds tired.
Or retarded!
or tired and retarded.
Obama is like a little child, stomping with the feet when they not get what they want.
Do you suppose that Obama is significantly LIMITED by this?
Obama wants to keep these histories out of sight:
The Public Be Suckered
http://patrick.net/forum/?p=1230886
I mean to point out (1) that we/USA are economically 'living the big lie', making us vulnerable to persons/entities with a 'voice', including Putin in principle. Therefore, I ask (2) if Obama's foreign policy behavior is significantly LIMITED by priority of preserving "the big lie".
Don't buy Russian stocks!
Or watch Russian media and just to make it even safer for you youtube will promptly be blocking Russia Today!
How's that for the transparency, change and hope we've all been dreaming of America!!!
Sounds like Nancy Reagan's advice for the war on drugs... just say no!
Sweet. Does this mean that if I short sell, I don't need to buy the stocks back and I can just keep the entire amount?!
does the usa think everyone is as stupid as they are? usa .gov is so stupid they believe their own stupidity is a saleble reality to the rest of the world. the rest of the world happens to like the new real reality with the usa giving way to a designated driver, putin.
The administration is just trying to help Americans out. Remember, back in June of last year the President invited personal-finance press to hear about his financial advice for Americans. My favorite two suggestions he recommended: "Beware of debt", and "Spending discipline is important." Combine that with his MyRa program and you'll be on your way to financial freedom! <\sarc off>
Gorbatschow called the Russian reunification with Crimea an "joyful occasion"...so it seemes we have another incompetent, scrupelosity bad guy, another raging avenger outside our propaganda-district...
http://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/specials/id_68537984/gorbatschow-lobt...
Oh no, I better call my broker to dump all my international funds that have 1% Russian exposure.
Knoller works for GS?
Good to know...
It'll then move to the next phase, which is "buy US equities for a greater US!" then followed by "you're either with us, in which case you buy only US equities, or you're against us"...
the Russians have survived Napolean, two world wars, trotsky, lenin, the lennigrad seige, nazi occupation, several revolutions, a few currency collapses, a nuclear meltdown, a societal collapse and had a near death moment with the IMF ripping their financial heart and liver out to sell on the open market in the 1990s...
and Jay Carney thinks they are going to give a flying fuck about his financial advise? he was born to hold Obama's dick in his mouth. how is that career choice working for him?
So sell McDonalds?
I see the front men. Who are the banksters on each side? Who is pullling the strings. IMF< ECU< FED> PROC and ?
Give me a score card. Is Gold the prize somewhere in this "crisis"?
"Is Gold the prize somewhere in this "crisis"? "
Appears, for today anyway, that they're selling...
TSLA up over 2.5% and gold down nearly 1%. Yeah, makes perfect sense! </sarc>
Anyone on this thread know what the ticker symbol for Sukhoi is?... I'm going long!
Yet more evidence the propaganda is failing.
"If I were you, I wouldn't invest in Russian equities right now."
If you were me, I'd be you, and I'd use YOUR body to invest in Russian equities. You can't stop me no matter WHO you are.....Loser!
Potential Russian Response: Don't buy U.S. real estate.
Now that was Strangelove funny.
Good watch Jim Sinclair.
http://xrepublic.tv/node/7993
Funny, Element above mentions Strangelove. Some similarities here...
I'd have put gold at $2,597.50/oz, a forecast of $2,000/oz just sounds like something was pulled out of the closet and dusted off...
But, all humor aside, it really is coming down to the recognition that FINITE resources, and ones of the energy kind, are much more precious than the USD-controlled markets suggest. And, Europe is broke: this is why I figure this is all just part of the pull-back by Russia to then shift their energy export markets toward China.
There's only 1 way to resolve this situation. China needs to drill a large hole under Tokyo then detonate a 5 megton nuclear bomb in that hole.
Don't let Russia in on the March Madness brackets!
Anybody notice EGPT, the Egypt ETF has increased 88% (and by proxy the Egyptian stock market) since the military coup that ousted Morsi? Are things THAT good in Egypt or is there another reason?
How pathetic. it's childish, really.
Why didn't they use these tactics to stop Hitler? Because way back then everyone would have found it hillarious and you can imagine what Dr. Goebbles could have done to answer those tacics.
What a dumb recommendation. A couple weeks ago I bought Gazprom at $6.60 and it's already to $7.13, despite Crimea. Do the opposite of whatever these "experts" say.
I am right with you Caracalla. I filled out my position with one more buy today at $7.01. I think the WH could probably get GS to run their piehole negatively, but with a multi-year low at something like $6.42 and with its assets, I feel pretty good here.

Democrat/Liberal Superior Intellectual Analysis : Sell Russia
Careful, however, to not overlook the necessary payments to the mob...
When Russia's oil and gas exports taper off I can assure you that those percentages WILL change: life is always better when you've got "excess" resources that folks NEED; look at Saudi Arabia et al..
I'm trying to figure out who the communists are? I already know who the retards are.
Here's the correct spelling for "communists:"
I just hear obama got tough with putin and unfriended him on facebook.
what would be funny is if someone started a class action lawsuit and sued carney as an individual for offering investment advice. we wait for 30 days, the russian market gains, then 50,000 of us sue him because we missed out on those gains as we took his advice not to invest...i dont think he has a series 7?
