And here is today's schizophrenia...
Stocks played catch down to bonds 3 times... (just look at the stock 'market' movements... do they look in any way normal?)
Driven by oil prices - today higher oil was a good thing, lower a bad thing again...

Everything is Seriously Broken...
Working as planned, nothing more, nothing less. This is a captured system.
Know your enemy
AD
High school history books will recognize this period as the Great BTATFH.
What do they call inflation and deflation at the same time?
War will revive the economy.
Biflation?
If it's broken, hit it with a hammer. Or something like that...
I think that was for the Russian space program... or was it for Soviet nuclear submarines...
what is the criteria for a mega depression?
Keynesian Economics...
The devil is figuring when, its collapse was sealed at its inception, the timeline of the depression cycles is the tough part.
Prepare Accordingly!

Don't blame JMK for a system based on usury. That was around long before him. It's a tribal thing.
Simultaneous inflation and deflation is called INEQUALITY.
Inequality increases the purchasing power of the rich, so high quality goods and services experience inflation due to higher demand, while it decreases purchasing power of the poor, thus decreasing the price or the quality of the lower priced goods, creating direct or overt deflation respectively.
This behavior can be studied using economies that have a high inequality index, like Argentina and looking a the bimodal distribution of the prices of the same goods. For instance a litter of champagne can cost either 5 dollars (cheap garbage type champagne) or 5000 dollars, for a bottle of high quality champagne.
The novelty for the USA is that this phenomena wasn't observable when our middle class was large and strong, but now... It is there for all to see.
You know the shit storm cometh when Chinese can't afford to gamble in Macau.

I think it was for their subs.
Apparently now it is for US space rockets.
Just about everything. Explains the hammer in the Soviet logo.
Whenever I have a rope that freys at the ends, I always pull at the individual stands to tie it back together.
"The Frayed Rope Collapse"
If it's nylon, I melt the ends back together, possibly resulting in molten nylon dripping off and landing on stuff below.
Also seems fitting: folks at the bottom are going to get burnt.
s/? Guess I missed the sarc tag
That first graph looks like the Challenger space shuttle explosion with the shuttle going one way and the two boosters going another.
Melting nylon really stinks. The political corruption also stinks.
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers
Keep burning this stuff and you won't be around long enough to see the collapse.
On the other hand, on a long enough timeline....

Ummm, PBDPE, the best!
whenever my teacher asked me if I had a solution to that,I would respond,"I`m afraid not".
Fuckedation
Listen.
America is going down. It's over.
The masters of America are now in the process of looting as much as they can. The tribe judges and legislators are mandating that African-American culture be the dominate culture. Get all Americans hooked on strong marijuana and heroine. Demand gun control and militarized police departments to "PROTECT" the tribe while they loot and "DRAIN" value from the host.
Loot as much as they can. Build Greater Israel.
Listen....to the flower people
Yeah man you're right. I'm hooked on all that strong marijuana. Me and all my neighbors. That's all we do here in America Don'tcha know. You are very knowledgeable. Not sure why you get so many down votes all the time.
Listen 007.
Regular ZH members can only cast one vote. ZH Admins and shill "IN-HOUSE" commenter's can vote multiple times.
Anyway, only vane Americans give a shit about "POPULARITY". Sorry for the redundant use of `vane` and `American` in the same sentence. I'm working on my Engwish.
1. BS to the multiple voting
2. Learn to f'ing spell.
The reason for the downvotes is because you are pompous and annoying. And that listen thing you do... who does that?
puppy thieves
Those with multiple personality disorder are allow to vote more than once. If all of them hate you in may mean something.
I will pretend to be a spelling Nazi..... I think your meant 'vain' not 'vane'
This goes beyond "biflation" stright into the realm of LGBTflation.
I would suggest triflation but your name is Jethro and you look like a French chick.
Schizoflation.
Inbredflation..
Nah....it's medication:
PCP+LSD with a touch of Freon
The elites are hoping to keep the S&P up long enough to ignite an interest from the general public so they can then make them the bag holders again.
So far it is not working.
The "general public" doesnt have any fucking money with which to buy the S&P...
They can just take out a student loan.
This might be the right time to take out and dust off the old DVD player and put in something from 1999 called "Fight Club".
I have to admit, I saw it the first time a few months ago.
Tylers.
Watched it last night, start to finish, uninterrupted for the first time. Have seen the show a couple times in fragments.
I believe it was topical at the time but we are probably past the point of any kind of return 15 years later. In the end, the results will probably look similar.
Too hard to buy S&P futures with food stamps.
That shouldn't be funny, SD,
but well played.
Me thinks QE is evolving...
Ring-a-round the rosie,
A pocket full of posies,
Ashes! Ashes!
We all fall down
CBs taking turns and QE is all about currencies.
Its all about squeezing Putin till his nuts explode more likely....
defication ?
Since the in and the de cancel out, wouldn't it just be Flation?
I like it, "flation!", kind of like "batin!" from Idiocracy.
Not cancel, combine. Indeflation. By the time I finish this sentence your individual portion of the debt load will have increased while at the same time the value of your real assets will have decreased.

Last time, they called it stagflation.
This time they will call it Hyperstagflation. It will do nothing, harder than ever before.

Quote "What do they call inflation and deflation at the same time?"
It's called malinvestment. The Austrian economists know this concept very well. People say Austrian economists are the only ones who actually understand interest rates.
It means money has moved it's duration around in some fucked up way that helps nobody and leads to ineffectual assets. Poverty ensues.

What do you call Inflation and Deflation at the same time?
CONFLATION.
Tarnations!
I call it InDeflation...Things that you need to exist are inflating...Things that you want are deflating...Problem is that the inflating needs leave no money for the deflating wants...So, the consumer economy is dying.
What do they call inflation and deflation at the same time? Conflation.
yes and what about oil. after top oil exporter Saudi Arabia cut prices to the United States

I'd like to suggest Article 2, Section 1 for a lesson plan.
Listen, Sherlock. While you were tucked away up here working on your ethics, I was out there busting my hump in the REAL world. And the reason guys like you got a place to teach is 'cause guys like me donate buildings.

You are right...

Edit...Think of this like ...Oil is in limited supply when that "indefinable nothing" is measured in Dollars.

Charms in limited supply
And refusing to stretch
That indefinable nothing
Somehow keeps pushing you
Finding the right words
Can be a problem
How many times must it be said
There's no plan
It had to happen
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time
By putting one foot in front of another
And repeating the process
Cross over the street
You're free to change your mind
Strength through diversity
Couldn't have put it more plainly
Got to move on sometime
Got to move on sometime
Got to move on sometime
Got to move on sometime
Charms in limited supply
Under threat of extinction
That indefinable nothing
Somehow motivates you
Finding the right words
Can be a problem
How many times must it be said
There's no plan
It had to happen
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time
By putting one foot in front of another
And repeating the process
Cross over the street
You're free to change your mind
Strength through diversity
Couldn't have put it more plainly
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time
Got to move on sometime
And it's about time

There used to be the 3:30 PM SPX ramp, but now there's the 3:30 PM CLx smackdown.
It's just plain weird. I'd give my left nut to understand this.
It's very simple; it's time for the market movers to take profits and shear the sheep. It's not longer a bull market; and that's just my opinion.
This market is .... Bullsheep!

Dude.
If you're going to keep spamming the thread with links to your autoerotic fantasies the least you could do is make sure that your sorry-ass little excuse for a webserver is able to stay online long enough for the rest of us to get in on the joke.
Nahh, everything is going according to ('their') plan.

Situation Normal, All Fucked Up ~Snafu~
The oil market reflects "real" demand. This is the only market anyone should really trust and even that market has been rigged to mask demand.
S&P ends unchanged; Still alive. paper losses of about $6500; "Are you feeling lucky, punk; huh, are ya?" Still looks like a very unstable and vulnerable market. I kind of wonder if it won't be worth supporting after the Elections. Maybe it'll be abandoned to its fate.
Nothing a little Gorilla Glue can't fix.
Nah, someone broke the DIP stick ! and its all flying out now.
We need an updated Swirl-o-gram to show the dynamic detail, preferably a real-time Swirl-o-gram to feel the gravity of the moment.
Congrats ... you managed to sum up EVERYTHING in FOUR words.
Anyone else notice how Finviz changed the basic charts today?
10 yr. VIX and 30 yr. were never at at the top line?
Am I going nuts? Seeing things?
But this changed this morning. http://finviz.com/futures.ashx Until last Friday Crude and Nat gas were on top line here......am I being manipualted? Heavens.

Nope, looks just fine to me.
yup stox™ up and remember...whenever you see a divergence between stalks and bonds ya gotta go with them stalks...
That's historic and shit fo' realz
Everything is seriously manipulated - so nothing makes sense.
My friend turned me onto physical gold 5 years ago, Friday he texted me bitching about gold tanking as if it was my fault. I bought gold when it was $1250/ounce on his advice, and then he bought in much later at $1850/ounce. Maybe he doesn't understand the "Buy low" concept.
Maybe he doesn't understand the "Buy low" concept."
"Maybe he also doesn't understand the difference between phyzz and paper gold, and the impact on the 'price' of gold - but let's hope so!
Just how in the hell are we going to support this economy if everyone insists on buying low and selling high? Even third grade math would tell you that there has to be equal numbers buying high and selling low for this to work out (not assuming inflation in which we will all be loser eventually). I have been doing my part as I have continually bought at the top of every market (except this one) and sold at the bottom. I bought silver coins at $35/ounce, so all you people wanting cheap silver have me to thank. AS my patience has run thin of late I have considered buying back into the stock market (been out since 2010) just to burn the fucker to the ground. Obviously its going to fall back on me to supply the high side buy that allows prices to fall again. I just can't do this all by myself! Come on... lets all Buy The Fucking Top and Blow It All To Hell!
Buy Gold, then wait.
Broken?!
Seems like everything is working according to plan for the virus currently occupying the white house and the white haired shit stain currently occupying the fed
Under $80/bbl? Just in time for the evening news on the day before the election.
seriously, any sustained lower move will shut down marginal projects and dry up capex ... more layoffs
NatGas agrees with you.
no nat gas doesnt, nat gas should be tanking as well.... its ripping instead (mostly likely wait for it, weather related)......
"...shut down marginal projects...."
Price action agrees with Bell's statement. Now we both look stupid, you for not getting it and me for spelling it out.
"no nat gas doesnt, nat gas should be tanking as well.... its ripping instead (mostly likely wait for it, weather related)......"
All the global warming is killing demand. Yeah, that's it.
Surprise, surprise, surprise
BINGO!
Yeah; Well, I went long the April '15 WTI contract with two cars; so we'll see. looks like bullshit to me; but I don't know anything; I'll either take a small loss or a big profit; one or the other.
Nice colors on this chart IMHO...
Please, there is no "market" for true price discovery in those charts.
Stupid sheep.
same as it ever was... there, beat ya to it.
When commodity demand actually sets the price we will know we have a market. Currently every price is based on speculation that in most cases has NOTHING to do with demand.
This is Ending Well
This does remind me of the Beginning of "The Day the Dollar Died" from 2005. Video production and predictions were in 9 years ago !
Under control until the end.

Thanks, got my first giggle effect with $7.9 Tril debt clock.
All seriousness aside, some financial implosion lies just ahead.
Deflationary collapse.
PM's have been screaming it for quite some time.
True, but what will the "fix" be from the fed? MOAR money printing I assume and then comes the currency collapse. At least, that is my hope.
Thats the plan according to Collins over at philosophyofmetrics.com
Its a requirement to force the world into a SDR regime.
Looking back over his calls, he's been more right than most.
You sir, are an optimist. If this is correct we are going to get yet another buying opportunity for physical.
Standing by...
My magazine of dry powder is ready for $1k per oz.
Gold getting crushed doesn't surprise me, but the fact that silver is at $16 just seems nuts. I mean a value meal at Wendys is $13.
Crack-up boom !
Put on your helmets and hearing protection.

That's not deflation, that's the death of a currency.
CRB at 4 year lows
i, uh, don't think that is what "they" want
Deflationary? I don't see the money supply contracting.
The BIS does.
moeny swirling in a black hole of debt backed instruments locked out of investments via ligite businesses(for the most part) and incomes stagnent causeing no growth-lol'g moar, moar dollas, we need moar to be skimmmed by the top 1 percenters MOAR, MOAR MOAR!
I see don't see any deflation, I see a liquidity trap and the death of fiat currencies...
I don't know why people think a deflationary spiral is caused by money supply. Money doesn't spend itself, there are other factors that no one seems to give serious consideration to.
Transactions require willing buyers and sellers, and an agreed-upon price. If the price is considered too high, the buyer won't buy no matter how much discretionary income he has. Downward pressure is now exerted on that item, irrespective of money supply.
Perhaps velocity of existing money is a better indicator. How fast are dollars changing hands?
"How fast are dollars changing hands?" -- posted above, they are changing hands about as fast as they were in 1960.
I agree. It's getting more messy and confusing on main street daily. In the end, that's all that counts. From my business perspective, the consumer has fled.
In some respects, this period reminds me of the doldrum economy of the early 70's.
Different, of course, is that gut feeling that time is running out.
the upcoming recession will be "emperor has no clothes" moment for markets
Doubt it. We need an alternative to rally around. If acceptance of the beauty of the emperor rags defines whether you eat, then he can be forever naked and no one will care. Sure they may admit to the lie in private but they will dare not speak out if it threatens them personally. No one wants to potentially surrender what they now have to correct this mess. Which is exactly how we got here. Our governments, world wide, have such control over the message that they can keep the fear level up so that no one will let go of the limb they are on to grasp for a better one. Be it Terror, or ebola, our republicans bringing back slavery, their job is to keep us afraid and only them as the viable protector. And if they can keep us fighting over abortions, prayer in schools, or smoking dope as the ultimate expression of our freedoms, we are fucked. Well, actually, we are fucked anyway...just sayin.
didn't harold ramis warn of us "mixing the streams"?
Yellin's involved and causing the shrinkage on purpose...see Grandma's always cause trouble when they walk in the board room !
