Is This Why Christine Lagarde Is Suddenly "Quite Worried" About Disconnect Between Market, Economy?
It appears the ruling elite have finally woken up to the reality in which the rest of the world's laboring populace has been living. IMF head Christine Lagarde stated this morning she is "monitoring buoyant markets" with "lots of hesitation" while noting "weak economies." We have one simple question for the oompa-loompa-colored 'economic expert' - what took so long?
- LAGARDE SAYS DISCONNECT BETWEEN MARKETS, ECONOMY 'QUITE WORRYING'
- LAGARDE SAYS FED'S QE POLICY HAS 'DONE MUCH TO AID RECOVERY'
You decide!
And then there's this...
- LAGARDE SEES WORRY MARKET, LIQUIDITY RISK MOVING TO 'SHADOWS'
- LAGARDE: GLOBAL RECOVERY `BRITTLE, UNEVEN AND BESET BY RISKS'
- LAGARDE: WORLD ECONOMY NEEDS BOLD MOVES TO AVOID `NEW MEDIOCRE'

Fuck that oligarch bitch.
Not even with your dick, thanks for the offer though..
That is a whole mess of scrizz to push that index up there.
All the Oligarchs know that if this wasn't done, their money system would be kaput by now.
They don't give a fuck about printing up $$, Euros, Yen, etc, as long as when they do it the plebes rejoice about them doing it.

Academic medical research essay that accurately predicted Ebola's spread to U.S. (as well as U.K., Germany and France - rest of globe pretty much) , and that predicts wide scale pandemic).
http://currents.plos.org/outbreaks/article/assessing-the-international-s...
Summary: The most credible epidemiological data establishes that containment Ebola anywhere it has spread to is nearly impossible.
Orange is the new double coyote ugly two bagger
p.s. - 3 week latency period is the Ebola virus' real evolutionary weapon of choice (born out of prior mutations; more quickly progressing past strains burned too fast to provide deception and deter detection by humans - until it was too late).
evolutionary? with the US army Bio division involved? how about designed? and why are 3,000 US troops going in, and not 3,000 health care workers? aided by 1,000 US tropos for security?
evolutionary, I think not.
troops fire weapons when they get their orders, health care workers don't
how can you seriously control a further outbreak of this virus?
Replace the healthcare workers with tropps? Freedom bombs for Ebola.
Sure.... there is only a small disconnect with the Stock Market and what is actually going on in the economy

Does he (Christine) have the same disconnect problem that Wolfowitz or DSK had?
Orange is the new BROKE.
She (he) was told to tell numerology; and now this...
something is afoot...
I'd do her. We'd make sweet sugar love on stacks of $100 bills.
You'd better make that Yuan if you want to remember it fondly down the road.
"I'd do her."
..holy cow .. oh I'm sorry, holy emaciated legal swine.
I don't believe in conspiracies. I truly think these egg-heads are ignorant about the damage being caused by globally non-existent interest rates. They are stealing money and giving it to the wealthy. But they aren't doing it on purpose. They are truly that stupid.
that could very well be^
“Our main job now is to help the global economy shift gears and overcome what has been so far a disappointing recovery: one that is brittle, uneven and beset by risks,” Lagarde said at a discussion on the global economy at Georgetown University Thursday.
Coincidentally the recovery description has the same features that characterize Christine’s vajayjay.
[Edit: She forgot to add “possessed by Satan”]
General mills & nutrasweet. Guess people don't want to eat garbage as much anymore.
Lampert is gutting the Kmarts. What no Shylock loans?
Given how retarded the Africans are being (raiding and dispersing makeshift hospitals so that the infected end up walking around their communities, because they don't want the hospital to be in their community), I'd say they probably could use some troops there.
OIL.
Don't overcomplicate it.Control of oil,current and prospective.
american stopped at the usa border and airports and check to make sure they have no contraband, cigars fruits and untaxed goods..bleeding from your eyes go on thru.
Yeah... + 1
.gov policies are sickening in so many ways.
New mediocre
I.e. the implosion of societies and systems all around the globe
Yup, w/o OIL, the USD is just overvalued Paper.
And w/o its MISC1, the USD is King no more, GRC2 no more. The two legs under the USD body: Oil+MISC. Left foot, right foot, left foot...
And yet Puppies and Sheeple get distracted or scared hopelessly, with every flash-bang and false-argument headline.
1. MISC: Military-Industrial-Surveillance Complex. But I'm tempted to call it the SPIM Complex (Spying, Propaganda, Industrial, Military), even though it could be argued that Spying on everyone is now part of the Military.
2. GRC: Global Reserve Currency
Without calories to burn you can't actually do shit.

Winston,+1000. It's always about the money and natural resources. Our troops are there to make sure we maintain control of the off shore oil. We get East and China gets the west coast of Africa
Because there aren't 3000 health care workers available, and Obama can't order health care workers the way he can military personel.
C'mon, just a few strokes to feel the burn
>>ebola
ok, so why isn't most of africa totally overrun with ebola by now? something doen't add up.
It is. It's a wildfire. Some entire villages are literally gone.
It is now spreading in major cities and has firm footing on all modes of fast, efficient global travel, with the commercial passenger jet being its optimal & most effective delivery system of choice (17 hours from Africa to U.S., and much less time to Europe or Asia).
So the number of 6600 infected is bogus? How bad is it then?
>Some entire villages are literally gone.
Honestly interested in a link to this.
Also, not to be a dick, but LITERALLY the villages are not gone, the villagers would be dead.
Full disclosure: I think ebola is just another fear script to keep 'mericans hiding under the bed. (with the possibility of chemical warfare)
Villages gone = few people. Ebola doesn't destroy buildings.
Does anyone who is actively engaged in critical thinking BELIEVE that the MSM is reporting the real time facts about Ebola, and what is happening, in real time?
Really?
The corporate owned MSM (6 companies owning every media outlet
in the U.S.), which depends on mass travel, purchasing, consumption, etc., in order to keep its machinery operating?
Really?
Remain calm. (Viral epidemics haven't turned into pandemics before in human history, and the CDC and its cohort agencies are uber competent).
you would be seeing mass migration in Africa to escape the infection zones. where are the photos of bodies piled up? none of this adds up.
They've been burning bodies for months (since the virus is still transmissible from corpses). Do you expect to see mountains of bodies on World News Tonight?
What are dirt poor Africans (99.8% of whom make less than $1 a day) going to do, or where are they going to go or ?migrate" to, exactly?
1st Class or coach airline, train, cruiseliner, subway tickets? Taxis? Hot air balloons?
Well in the interest of examining all the facts, West Africans have never had problems finding ways to migrate to Europe before...
Just ask Greece.
ebola turns the whole body to liquid so the africans are liquified and get washed away
Self cleaning, nice. That's the sign of a highly engineered oven, or virus.
I'm curious as to why the first ebola patients treated in the US were handled in top tier bio containment units and a show was made of it: Emory, Nebraska Med Center, etc. Now, the media has shifted to showing local hospitals with an isolation ward. Thoughts?
If I knew that I'd be a billionaire or I'd be hunted down by TPTB, but one could be forgiven to believe/think/suspect all is not what it appears to be in the Matrix.
...JFK to Accra, Ghana. = depart Nov. 15, 2014 - return Nov. 29, 2014 -
>>>>10 hours 21 minutes flight time<<<<
Direct flight DELTA, outgoing every Saturday, return every Sunday. ...round trip = $1238.60
...link >>>>http://www.delta.com/air-shopping/findFlights.action
Awesome !!!
Just to compare and contrast, in 2009 these tickets were $2,500 and up, I know, I've bought a few of 'em through the years...in 2005 you ask? $1400...looks like it's time to go to West Africaaaaaaaaa lol
...so remember guys, when you are punching in your departure and return dates, departures are on Saturdays, and returns are on Sundays.
There are a total of 4 bioisolation untis in the US. Maybe they're full.
who sez it's not? give it till 1/1.
BTW, I am not yet ready to engage in "conspiracy theory" (often turning into fact), but it is at least curious that this Liberian person hops on a Dallas bound plane after being stuck in an Ebola hot zone, after just prior caring for Ebola stricken relatives (one whom he apparently watched die in close proximity), and the ...just pops on over to the U.S. making a few pitfalls in major airports along the way.
Very curious indeed.
but the good news is he did not breathe,fart, cough or sneeze once during this 35 hour voyage.
Nice to see you calling out that bullshit.
Come on people, is anyone suggesting that the sick fucks who have infiltrated a vast many positions of power in the US aren't gagging for an excuse for the collapse of the U.S. economy. Come on, put yourself in their shoes. The level of crime that has gone unpunished needs to be forgotten, in a hurry. The fact that IS hasn't held a press conference claiming they have Ebola infected operatives moving freely within the U.S. really does make me wonder if IS is just CIA. Such a press conference would instantly collapse the stock market which would take the rest of the system with it. IS would win. So why don't they????? TPTB, CIA not quite ready yet?????
Maybe ISIL did, but the State Run Media (TM) blacked out this news? Maybe the Liberian is ISIL, or from The Religon of Peace(TM)?
The stock market will come crashing down when TPTB *don't* have a lot of at the money short puts. Follow de Monet.
Ebola baby whats this have to do with the article?
Is This Why Christine Lagarde Is Suddenly "Quite Worried" About Disconnect Between Market, Economy?Eblowla was not mentioned once. Comment on the article or STFU.
Good football game on tonight.
Hey shit for brains with the 44Magnum up your ass?
Did you read the article?
Do you comprehend that Ebola is very likely going to have a devastating impact on global economic output and consumption?
It's the new game plan for on-shoring before heads roll.
Afraid of the great Ebola virus?
Wake up. Until the thing goes airborne, relax. Just a scare tactic to take your mind off of the fact you dont have enough money anymore.
Goes airborne? Then you can panic.
Players will be wearing pink, for breast cancer awareness n shit...
The same reason it took Facebook 10 years to sign up a billion users.
It is. Grab an excel sheet and draw
1) The progression of cases (on a linear scale) vs time (linear)
2) The progression of cases on a log scale (base 10) vs time (linear)
Still confused?
3) On your log scale graph, draw the linear regression line
Still confused?
4) STFW and RTFM
lack of a modern travel network and international business travel like you get in the west or east asia?
TIS...So, what you are saying, I won't get Ebola if I don't sit down anymore ?
The most common transmission is sitting on warm motorcycle seats or taxi cabs that keep the virus warm and cozy ?
Is the indicated regimen to stay inside cooped-up for 5 years (like during the plague during ealy Renaissance) ? When Newton and Leibniz developted Calculus.
YES, totally agree that Ebola will be a game changer when it enters the urban population densities...pretty much everyone will need to 'cover up' and not touch anything. We will all look like "plague doctors" walking around with tents over our bodies.
Actually, it says exactly the opposite:
We observe that the expected value of the cluster size in the case of international spread is always rather small (in all countries mean<6; median<4). Large outbreak involving more than 10 individuals although potentially possible can be considered as very rare events (Detailed statistics per country are available upon request). This numerical evidence is good news, as it points out that effective management and isolation of cases is keeping the number of EVD cases to deal with to a very limited number, lowering the risk of losing control of the outbreak.
Your statement: ....."that predicts wide scale pandemic"
"Results" stated in the Abstract of your Link:
"Results indicate that the short-term (3 and 6 weeks) probability of international spread outside the African region is small, but not negligible......"
a good time to be Amish
(i wonder if those old time religious rules evolved to prevent epidemics)
(i don't wonder really, it's obvious they did)

And the best part is the plebes, the idiots the whole lot of them, only get 0.000001% of what is printed.
But the market defenders are gonna get theirs. The US may be following the same steps as Japan, but we are NOT Japan. At least those people have some decency, sense of community, calm. We are mostly a lot of drug addicts, murderous psychopaths, and greedy welfare queens....
......and that's just the politicians and the majority of corporate America and Wall St.
I've loathed the Japs since I saw that documentary about them clubbing dolphins.

spinone & Livermore -
Just skip to the Conclusions of the report since you seem to have missed a key turn event:
"CONCLUSIONS
We show by a modeling effort informed by data available on the 2014WA EVD outbreak that the risk of international spread of the Ebola virus is still moderate for most of the countries. The current analysis however shows that if the outbreak is not contained, the probability of international spread is going to increase consistently, especially if other countries are affected and are not able to contain the epidemic. It is important to stress that the presented modeling analysis has been motivated by the need for a rapid assessment of the EVD outbreak trends and contains assumptions and approximations unavoidable with the current lack of data from the region. The results may change as more information becomes available from the EVD affected region and more refined sensitivity analysis can be implemented computationally. Furthermore, the modeling approach does not include scenarios for the identification and isolation of cases, the quarantine of contacts, and the proper precautions in hospital and funeral preparation that would be relevant in discussing optimal containment strategies. Such a modeling effort however calls for better and more detailed data not available at the moment."
Did you catch the relevant part?
Here it is again:
"The current analysis however shows that if the outbreak is not contained, the probability of international spread is going to increase consistently, especially if other countries are affected and are not able to contain the epidemic. "
Guess what?
This essay was written on September 2nd, and the outbreak is now officially not contained and the probability of international spread is going to increase consistently.
if it breaks out into places with both large crowds and modern travel network then i expect it could get very bad
that doesn't stop it being a distraction from the banking mafia destroying civilization again though (like Babylon, Assyria, Persia, Egypt, Rome and now Rome 2.0)
"the idiots the whole lot of them"
It's not idiocy it's trust.
(Okay, it might be idiocy as well but without the trust the whole right half of the Bell curve would have rumbled the banking mafia by now.)

Yeah, and maker pay taxes too!
Just wait and see!
She and many others will be hailed as economic genius's for calling the top.

Her role as insurer of the elite's market gains has nothing to do with her dubious sexual attractions. Do you ever wonder how a person like her rose to to her position of baby sitter of elite interests in the financial world?
Know: Her Sexual Attraction. What I don't know, and don't want to to know, is who is feeling the aforesaid Sexual Attractions. My guess is it's someone in Brussels, but it's all a Farage.
LAGARDE: WORLD ECONOMY NEEDS BOLD MOVES---Like what? Double down on QE? I still think she's the Kill Bill double.
Like the rule of law and prosecution of crimes. The enforcement of laws and regulation on financial crimes, and mark to market ang GAAP accounting.
@soberone: "Fuck that oligarch bitch."
I'll bet that's what her predecessor would like to do, but in the Back Door -- just to get back for having been set up and screwed over, before having been dumped for this GS bitch. Can't say I'd blame the guy.
It is a curious coincidence that George Soros sold (unwound) his gold position the very same day DSK was arrested (set-up). We all know DSK will only fuck virgins! Male, female....doesn't matter as long as he is the first. So I find the allegation of him raping some maid absolutely preposterous!
Maybe it wasn't a coincidence?
Which begs the question... can a person f* someone who is already in the process of gang raping said person?
Does that mean the looting is nearly complete ?
I am loving the discount on metals... :)
I think it means that the next stage of looting is about to begin.
for socialists the looting never ends, its a lifestyle, an endless stream of suckers, you've heard the term "there's one born every minute" if there isn't enough "born every minute" they just import muslims and Africans
the people who benefit most from government borrowing are the banking mafia
The present looting has mostly been abstract.
The era of looting real chit, up close and personal, is about to go into full effect.
And when it does, plase don't call the looters stupdi for taking all your chit and storing for themselves.
Please.

Welcome to Our World
nice chart porn
It's the fault of all that austerity they've been talking about that nobody has ever seen...
the orange muppet speaks again!
i think we've had quite enough "bold moves" already and have the sore ass to prove it bitchez.
What took her so long? Well she was busy in the tanning booth!
Chris LaGarde does not give a flying fuck about the worlds "e-con-o-me". Nothing but bullshit rolls off her tongue. As long as she gets her tax free income she'll keep playing her roll.
has she paid her taxes on her income yet?? oh sorry she is exempt. employee of IMF.
Welcome to the 'new mediocre'. We've been living on mediocrity for 6 years and she's just realizing this now? The 'disconnect' lies with her and the other elites living in their golden cages. Almost time to come out and play with the rabble. :)
wanna fix income/wealth inequality:
1. cut the debt to zero
2. raise rates to 4-5%
3. corporate tax reform, flat tax, cut regulations, encourage businesses to take risk
4. encourage people to work for a living instead of sitting home collecting as much free shit as they can & waiting on lines 5 days for the new iphone
5. encourage people what when that paycheck comes in from the job to save/invest 20-25% of it instead of relying 100% on the "consumer-driven" economy
SO WHAT WILL ACTUALLY HAPPEN??? absolutely none of this, we will grow global debt, reduce # of business, raises taxes, drop rates to negative, continue to try and "inflate" the price of shit so we feel better about how much our stuff is worth.
oh, and continuing to do that status-quo keeps all the kensians in control. doing the right thing is hard. promising people free shit with other peoples $$$ is the easiest way to get re-elected.
DotGov would be signing their own death warrant if they did that. Their existance depends on the enormous labrynth of confusion that they have created. Oh, and the crap they give to the FSA to get their votes.
What will happen? it will all collapse as every empire does. Dot.Gov will NEVER yield power and do what is right. they'll ride it all the way to the collapse.
don't worry..they are going to raise the minimum wage and then everything will be alright.
legarde finally realizes that a rising tide sinks most boats.
Legarde... if john boner had a sister... maybe she can be the thieving cheeto.
I don't get it. The bankers have enslaved the world in max debt, and now they're worried? What, they maxed out their income and can't continue getting billion dollar bonuses? foreshame!
what the FUCK is happening to the VIX????
Oh sorry. Stupid me. Now everything is ok again. Right.
I can answer my own question thanks to CNBC:
"We will see - now that Europe's bad close is out of the way - whether this market can sustain it's momentum to the upside".
Another possible answer to my own question (just saw it only now):
Somebody is trying to be funny and paint a big fat middle finger with today's chart.
Ms. LaFraude is worried about "new mediocre"....WTF? Is she describing her burnt orange campfire color?
"...bold moves..." would require getting rid of the likes of LaGarde and friends.
Time has come to pay...
Because her home country is in a world of hurt and she's finally woken up to that.
It could be worse, Global GDP could go negative.... o wait.
She avoids metal detectors at all costs. A carrying tangerine.
"the ruling elite have finally woken up"
Don't worry.
They'll go back to sleep.
Self-Interest is the very highest quality sleep aid.
QE makes them rich(er).
"the ruling elite have finally woken up" Ha ha Why do you think CNBC and BBG keep pumping the message that retail just have to buy equities....
The plebs are being assaulted while the upper echelon of societial servants are being given a courtesy warning to avoid being scalped.
We have two economies, the capital economy and the labor economy. The two economies are taxed differently, giving the capital economy about a 3 percentage point advantage in cost, on average, over the labor economy in the United States (your results may vary). It is no wonder the labor economy is doing worse than the capital economy.
Oh so now we're waiting for "bold moves"? Good. I'm sure said "bold moves" will appear well before World War 3 does. Lol
Mirror mirror on the wall...who is the ugliest banker of them all?
It's a kind of a toss-up between the hobbit and the Simpsons character.
How about that 2% annual growth target the elite Finance ministers dreamed up just last month? Was that all for show? LOL
This just in from the "you can't make this shit up department", you can now invest in a athlete... NFL football players, NBA, MLB, etc. I am sure this will save the markets and provide much needed liquidity....lolololololololol!
This is the end....only at CNBS. :)
"LAGARDE SAYS FED'S QE POLICY HAS 'DONE MUCH TO AID RECOVERY'"
Bernanke himself wrote in 1988, that QE does not work.
The FED's QE policy has worked to set up a Great Depression.
And by Bold Moves she means printing tons of money, because let’s face it, that’s all the Banksters know how to do.
Bold Moves = acceleration to the IMF as the new Global Ponzi Fiat
I sell gold, you wouldn't believe how many people are clueless at this point....I have to hand it to the politicians, they are great fucking liars! These people have no clue!
are you selling your stash or are you a coinshop lamenting that there aren't more customers?
LAGARDE: WORLD ECONOMY NEEDS BOLD MOVES TO AVOID `NEW MEDIOCRE'
A 100 trillion dollar global debt BUBBLE is a bold move. It isn't mediocre Lagarde needs to worry about, a BOLD Great Depression is what she needs to worry about, from a 100 trillion dollar global debt bubble.

Stifle your irrational hysteria about the spread of Ebola.
No one in their right mind would spread it by transporting exposed and infected people to around the world locations.
That would be insane.
And Ebola will never come the the United States.
Our border security measures seal out the most remote chance of entry of people with communicatable diseases.
Especially 3rd World diseases that the US little people do not have resistence to.
Will never happen here.
Our leaders are far too competent and honest.
