Stocks, Bonds, & Bullion Bid As Geopolitical Risk Soars Most In 62 years
Ok - where to start...
1) GDP met improved expectations thanks to a huge inventory build (which we know from sales since remains at cycle extremes)
2) Richmond Fed weak for 3rd month in a row (signalled last 2 recessions)
3) Consumer Confidence collapsed (worst in 14 months)
4) Americans have given up hope for more employment opportunities
5) Another terrorist attack (this time in Tunisia)
oh yeah and 6) Turkey shot down a bloody Russian fighter jet (in what is the closest we have come to WW3 proxy wars yet - the first NATO nation to fire at a Russian plane since 1953)
And so... "investors" bought stocks...
As soon as Europe closed... (because when Obama, Hollande, and NATO speak, stocks must rally to confirm the confident good news)...But ended the day below the pre-Doomsday levels...
Small Caps once again outperformed amid yet another short squeeze... and trannies were worst despite the ramp in energy stocks and oil...
S&P is unch, "Most Shorted" is up 3% this week!!!
As energy stocks soared over 2%...
Everything happened when Europe closed...
And VIX was hammered to get the momo going...
Is the squeeze over in KaleBios? Down 50% today...
FX Carry and Treasuries were not buying it...
as stocks ramped to catch up with crude...
Credit markets were not bouncing with stocks...
Treasury yields tumbled on safety bids after the Russian fighter jet was shot down... then traded in a very narrow range for the rest of the day...
The USDollar was notably weaker on the day as EUR and JPY strengthened...
Commodities were volatile today with oil backing everything but early jumps in PMs were quickly sold into...

Nabila Bakkatha, a Muslim woman from Morocco, was mistakenly identified as Hasna Ait Boulahcen, the female suicide bomber associated with the Paris attacks. Bakkatha says her photos were sold to the media by an ex-friend who wanted revenge.

Call your Congresscritter and bitch about huge risks for little return. What do we citizens get ouf of the ME wars? Those are Israeli interests, not US interests.
Wars are now risks to all of civilization, we cannot allow that. Especially from a government that is completely illegitimate due to 9/11 and completely compromised due to the many database thefts, e.g. OPM.

There is no part of government that anyone can trust. Why do we tolerate this?

Good luck with your call.
I doubt if he's even lucky enough to own one, let alone keep him bought.
There is no part of government that anyone can trust. Why do we tolerate this?
If...er...um...SINCE that is the case then why do you lamely suggest that we callour Congress critter?
WHY...BOTHER...WASTING...THE...TIME???
Still have the clouded thinking by false hopes?
THERE IS NO HOPE. THERE ARE NO SOLUTIONS. THAT IS THE SAD REALITY.
You cannot do anything about it. It is out of your control.
Accept it and make your peace with it as our time grows short.
Enjoy your family this Thanksgiving. It may just turn out to be your last Thanksgiving.
That is what really counts.
Make your home a SAFE ZONE...NO TEEVEE.
No bickering about politics. No talking about the shitshow. Toss the football around with the kids and grandkids.
Direct the conversation to sentimental rememberances of laughter and joy while growing up.
If anyone starts the topic then deflect the conversation away from it.
Have a good Thanksgiving, a peaceful one...without the family fights.
TV on last night
Heard the Charlie Brown CHRISTMAS that I have watched and enjoyed for many years ,as I start to smile the Fucking Muslim Osama and the Wookie cut in doing wamp wamp wawww
That fucking Muslim war mongering nigger needs a bullet asap!
What a disgrace to Charlie
yeah...
we all know he's the one in charge....
carry on.
Blow Me Income,
Forgive me for being obtuse, but can you please clarify something for all of us. Are you suggesting that someone should use a firearm to affect penetration of a bullet into a certain other individual?
This may difficult for you, given all the meth you've smoked, but please try to be as clear as possible, so that we can all understand the exact intent of you message.
p.s. Your rhetoric sounds familiar. Barny, is that you? By any chance do you work at the 7-11 down on 5th Ave
And while you're at it, can you share with us one - just one- cogent comment regarding the markets? We're all waiting on the edge of our seats to hear how you invest your retained earnings from your pathetic job.
Tyler,
Is anyone watching the posts lately?

exactly...
never mind that most rants involving slurs r completely lacking in veracity or cogency...
the fact that mother fuckers still engage in the Right versus Left, or Whites versus Black bullshit diminishes the integrity of the site not even mentioning the commentor...but whatever...that is in large part why this shithole of a nation finds itself in its current condition...
false naratives and enemys brought to u courtesy of the same elites who r ur shadow rulers and goverment...
get a fucking life souzy
More PC bullshit?
If you don't like it change the channel, you know what to do.
you forgot "Vote Trump..."
vote TRUMP, there fixed if for ya souzy
say what? you snivelling, anti-intellectual idiot
It must be really hard for you to accept that you've lost everything trying to use YOUR intellect to "invest" in this market, and now you're forced to live in a piece of shit room with pealing paint and no heat.
So PLEASE Share with us just one small piece of you deep "intellect."
Freedom of speach is getting more narrow each day. Can we refer to quotes from 'Southpark'
I had to mentally downshift just to skim his first sentence... on top of the hardcore racism.
acording to webster:
discrimination
: the practice of unfairly treating a person or group of people differently from other people or groups of people
: the ability to recognize the difference between things that are of good quality and those that are not
: the ability to understand that one thing is different from another thing
Would you like ppl to be unable to understand that one thing is different from other thing?
Like decapitation is different thing that going for movie with your girlfriend. Inslulting group of ppl that does decapitation or religion that ecourages decapitation is FAIR.
So according to definition of english, saying: "Islamists are stupid fucks." is not a discrimination. Now go piss off.
nigga please! if that gets me kicked of the board so be it, fucking tired of the PC bullshit and BLACKLIESMATTER, got it fuckface? good
So, would you be equally offended if he had used "cracker" or "white trash"? Remember, his mother was white or so the story goes. Question: Which group has been discriminated against the most over the last few decades? Answer: White males. How do we know? AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. Do you hear us whining like bitches? We find it deliciously ironic that you are offended by someone calling Barry a nigger, when he and his band of merry Alinskommies are DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE for sending race relations backwards sixty years or so. That nigger can kiss our ass, as can Kerry, Reid and the other crackers aiding and abetting him not to mention the kikes who fund them. "You have been warned". Fuck off. People are drawn to ZH because it is virtual Fight Club. If you are offended leave, if you stay don't try to be the thought police.
FUCKING AYE, good post TD....that was a touchdown!
Barry Soetero's mother was Ann Dunham, 7th cousin to G W BUSH LOL...THEY ARE RELATED bwahahahahaha...on top of that she and her negro son renounced their usa citizenism to move to indonesia...where Barry studied at a madras. he locks his universtiy records not to hide grades, but to hide the fact he was a foriegn student.
no wonder we are in such trouble
Another deep thinker.
The "You have been warned" comment was taken from the ZH web site i reference with the URL. Did you even look at the referenced link? Do you even have a High School education?
Its not the "nigga", "jew", or any other remarks that caught my attention. I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader what other parts of the original message remain to be discussed.
here here, this IMO is communism by the backdoor, Saul Alinsky must be laughing his head off right now at all the shit being posted to "stir it up". Rules for radicals, the whitehouse / 10 downing St Bible!
Gulags for everyone who isnt killed off first.
The deep state would love to see this president gunned down by white "right wing extremists", and the reasons are to numerous to mention.
So, all you white right wing extremists out there, I suggest bankers, lobbyists and treasonous congressvermin are the way to go.
You forgot the Judges and lawyer vermin, as well as the Board of Directors of the large TBTF corporations...Oil Companies...Defense Contractors...as they really call the shots.
There is more than enough vermin that are deserving than a fucking FIGUREHEAD who is actually POWERLESS and does the bidding of his CORPORATE MASTERS.
But the advocation of killing Presidents is, first, ILLEGAL.
That will only serve to guarantee a trip to jail each and everytime the President comes to town.
When the President leaves his hometown, or close proximity, then they release him. And that happens for the rest of the idiot's life.
And this Comment Board is crawling with NSA Agents, IRS Agents, and FBI Agents..
He needs be expecting a visit from the Secret Service in the near future. I feel sorry for him.
And it is not like a President Joe Biden will be any better...That would be even worse.
Idiocy. Plain and pure idiocy.
I remember a time when war in the Middle East would mean financial markets tanking and oil and gold soaring. The elites have really controlled the markets this time.
The Thin Brown Psychotic Smoker in the Rainbow House desires moar chaos!
I like how the "surge" in gold almost fizzles to nothing shortly after and the stock market finishes up as always.
If Russia retaliates by nuking Turkey, watch for gold to surge by $15 no... $17 before falling back to unchanged.
Would be nice to see Russia nuking those bastards. USA and EU would just say they are deeply worried.
The way things are going Europe will soon be permanetly closed and then the market will be free to go to infinity and beyond.
big disgrace, war smirck all over your face, we will bomb you...
Thank Gawd Greece is fixed or the Eurozone would really be in the shitz.
Employment?
You open the cell doors and the slaves don't even want to leave...
Funny....DAX futures ect never bounced
Thanks PPT!
In response, the White House issued a strongly worded hashtag, #meanoldrussianpoopyheads
Highest geopolitical danger in 62 years?
Now that's wackoism. I'd say the danger level was just a tiny bit higher during the Cuban Missile Crisis.... Of in fact any of about 100 other times since 1953.
Today is nothing - just a couple of second-rate regional powers (Russia and Turkey) having a little border spat. In a year, nobody will remember it.
You're missing /s
Either that or you're a fool if you believe this is only about Russia and Turkey.
Don't worry The Eagle Has Crash Landed

UN Declares ISIS an Endangered Species...
(NY)
Global warming activists petition the UN successfully to have ISIS declared a protected endangered species. Leading the charge is the Clinton Foundation, AL Gore, The Bush Family and Greenpeace. According to Hillary Clinton, who has recieved millions in donations from ISIS supporters, "Israel did all the legwork and Turkey followed through with making millions of acres into a permanent refuge". The United States also did their part providing millions of acres in republican held states according to US Forest Service sources and the Nature Conservancy.
Nuclear melted faces are bullish. Buy COCKSUCKERS.
Majority of the 1%ers have their kids stay far away from any military duty. Their idea is to make money off other people's loss of life, pain and suffering.
Al this geopolitical turmoil brings volatility to the markets and that is good for trading. http://www.cfd-handel.nl/index.php/artikelen/8-artikelen/76-top-traders-...
Debbie Downer here...I am so sick of this fake up and down. We won't see sparks until Janet tighens her bra and rasies rates. I don't know why I even follow the ups and downs.
