This post is deceptive BS. Including dividends the S&P is up 88%, going from alleged worst to first by a lot. Interesting how the gold and silver bugs always seem to forget about the key weakness of holding precious metals as a long term investment.
Oh, and QQQ up 146% in the same period.
I'd be looking to unload those triple Q's pronto.
... and to think, the entire operation pivoted on finding that fully functioning GS laptop in a garbage room in New York with readily accessible email. Lucas van Praag... they don't make 'em like that anymore. Heck of a job. Kudos to Gensler too for that swaps thing-a-majig.
Seems overly optimistic to think we'll be having great-grandchildren........ not sure the whole mess will last more than another 25 years.

Repost;
US Bank & the FED have bullshitted everyone, but we can't swear who is Running the USA. FED, Jesuits, Zionist, Masons, Illuminati, OR Just Robberbarons
still look at the Long Term Sales of US Treasuries, you will see what a Superpower can Accomplish with Bonds:
Check page 35 of both TICData reports (2002 & 2013) for Belgium, Cayman Islands, and Luxemburg. LT US Treasuries go from $10 Billion to $366 Billion. (partly due to safe haven effect, but also due to Financial System on Steroids) Or just take a look below to refresh your memory.
Interesting of the $26 Trillion in Foreign Owned US Assets put out by BEA.GOV on IIP Data, looks like about half is accounted for in the 2013 Data Report as Equities, LT Corporate Debt, LT Agency Debt, LT Treasuries. Which leaves me to conclude foreign owned US Real Estate must be about $12-14 Trillion (page 30). But I am not an Economist or Financial guy. Maybe Europeans are also buying US Real Estate.

Let's Tie UK & Ireland LT US Treasuries purchased by these countries... in the US Global Wars...and to after the 2008 Financial Scandal & Crisis.
So let's look at Debt:
we are becoming the UK, with Low Wages, Low Benefits, and High Household Debt to GDP of 200% per household...
Look at what the Rothschild's did to United Kingdom:
http://www.usdebtclock.org/world-debt-clock.html
UK External Debt to GDP is = 462%
Ireland External Debt to GDP is = 1061%
Greece, France, Portugal & Spain all look better than the United Kingdom who have Enjoyed the Rothschild's indomitable "Banking Expertise" for over 200 Years.
We should say rather the Rothschild's Interminable "Banking Expertise".
IN 1980 the USA was looking Sweet, till Ronald Reagan got into Office:
Debt to GDP = 35% in 1980
Debt to GDP = 100% Today
http://www.usdebtclock.org/1980.html
Wages & Compensation = Decrease
Household & Private Debt = Exponential Increase
Federal Debt & Budget = Exponential Increase
Corporate Taxes & Tax Base = decreasing
TBTF Bailouts, Bail-Ins, & QE = Exponential Increase
Sale of US Assets & Property to Foreigners = Exponential Increase.
Household Debt to GDP for United Kingdom©

How can UK & Ireland afford to hold US Treasuries while paying Interest on National Debt?
How can the Vatican or Israel for that matter hold huge Financial Assets while holding poor people in misery, despair, and agony...?
WTF isn't government supposed to think, help, and conserve money for future projects... versus use public funds for war & empire & inside deals with other nations while suppressing & blackmailing other nations.
----
And if you are looking at China & Japan LT Treasury holdings... I guess we know why the US is keeping Trade Free.
A Deal looks like it was made. Buy US LT Treasuries in exchange for "Free Trade".
"FED, Jesuits, Zionist"
those are certainly one & the same
CHANGE. He promised change didn't he? He is a man of his word...
"Three charts... "The West is done, it's over! We screwed it all up. Do you want your great-grandchildren speaking Chinese?"
SEZ YUP!
The smart money is moving into the Chinese Yuan.
Lets see now, how does this go? Here is a piece of paper that is worth nothing but some bankster egoist debt, or here is a piece of paper that has an equivalent value of a certain measure of gold, maybe even some that are worth a measured amount of silver too. Which do you choose?
Tell ya what, trade you some food for the piece of paper that is worth some measure of silver, maybe a house or car for a couple of pieces of paper, maybe two or three for the ones that are worth a certain measured amount of gold. Come on, what do ya say?
Gotta really appreciate the way this guy gives the poop like he does. Give thanks for the gleaming lights of truth. Used to be what American values were all about.

Here are another great report that came out today. The strange and sad truth is, it comes from Russia and not the american tainted-propaganda blabber baloney cactus ca-ca blah-blah no-one-even-listens-to-it main stream dribble that used to be known as news, and useful information.
Yaddi-yadda zadda!

And Ron Paul was on tonights Boom Bust. That girl is doing some good reporting.
Free Scotland!!
S&P was a more efficient use of capital over gold since LEH collapse....
Also I got 66% return for the S&P, not 58%. Close today was 1984. Close on 9/15/08 was 1192. Thats 66%. Is ZH fudging numbers? LOL
The fraud is with the Fed and Congress... Barney Frank should go to jail! Who created Fannie and Freddie? Who engineered the idea of homeownership for everyone? Who insisted securities be marked to market? Who failed to provide liquity to the banking system? If you want to know the real story consider what happened on the day of the market bottomed? 3/9/2009... Barney Frank said mark-to-market should be repealed! Work back from there and you will have the truth....you will not get the truth from the government or the news media.
Are you trying to say that Barney Frank created Fannie?
Fenway Park stopped serving Fenway Franks. Now they're serving Barney Franks. If you don't like them, you can stick 'em up your ass.
How true, I would call Barney a C**k Sucker but he would take that as a compliment
We all become ninja´s now
I wonder which incarnation of this thing called "Tyler Durden" has been writing these articles! As a trader I know that things bounce from the bottom ( employment ) and fall from the top ( FED balance sheet ) specially when it goes parabolic. So anything that sits at a low level today tend to go up like interest rates etc. And everything that stands at the top has a high risk of falling as gold lately. Now the herd sees things inversely. For them low means lower and high means higher. Thats a dangerous game to play and always stings at the end. The herd get always stuck short in a hole and long at the very top. Thats how wealth gets transferred from the wanna be to the professional.
COMMERCE BETWEEN MASTER AND SLAVE IS _________?
"We screwed it all up. Do you want your great-grandchildren speaking Chinese?"
" WE" ? Is the author admitting to somer degree of responsibility here ?
For the benefit of the rest of us who are not included amongst the responsible yet greatly effected by your screw up would you please identify yourself ?
Aksed and Answered:
The Jewish Mafia:
Summers, Rubin, Greenspan, Blankfein, Geithner, Fuld, Gensler, Strauss-kahn, Cayne, Barney Frank, Shapiro, Madoff, Peter Cohen, Glucksman, Salim Lewis, Alan Greenberg, Alan Schwartz, Jack Lew, Peter Orszag, and on and on and on and on.
Look no futher to find the unindicted crooks from one Ethnic group.
Had they all been of Chinese, German, Italian, Irish, English, Welsh, Scotch, Danish....they would now be living under boxes, in the dark, cold and hungry instead of still in charge of nearly all the money and the printing of it in the world.
if you look closer, there was an Asian guy in the meeting snickering!
No worries! We can make a nice buck with the Alibaba IPO friday.
Timberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr bitchezzz!
