BBC Speechless As Trader Tells Truth: "The Collapse Is Coming...And Goldman Rules The World"
In an interview on BBC News this morning that left the hosts gob-smacked (google it... it is the BBC after all), Alessio Rastani outlines in a mere three-and-a-half-minutes what we all know and most ignore. While the whole interview is worth watching, the money shot for us was "This economic crisis is like a cancer, if you just wait and wait hoping it is going to go away, just like a cancer it is going to grow and it will be too late!". While he dreams of recessions, sees Goldman ruling the world, and urges people to prepare, it is hard to disagree with much (or actually anything) of what he says and obviously interventions and machinations means we will have days like this (in Silver for instance), there is only one endgame here and we hope there is less hopeful euphoria (and more preparedness) as we pull back the curtain further and further.
While we do not know who this trader is, one thing we can be 100% certain of is that he will never appear on CNBC.

How long will it take to have more comments than views? There are about 150 comments and still 309 views.
It's kind of a running joke for us regular Youtubers. We is thinking it has to do with Youtube weeding out false hits because there are many tricks people try to use to get their stats up. Youtube has to defend against high frequency hits on every submission; quite a chore. So we give them a laughing break. Everyone who first notices the counter stop just above 300, will assume it's supression unless it's a video on how to make toast. If it's supression, they do it across the board on all topics.
Kind 'a like when I press the green "up" arrow here at Zero and my vote registers "3" votes? Funny how that happens almost EVERY TIME. The other times it's just "2" votes that register.
You might consider the hundreds of people looking at the post at the same time. By the time you click, it only updates the count on that one comment to real time. That is why it suddenly goes up 3 or 6.
Save your breath..., they're not going to get it.
Then again, he could just be making a funny (and it IS funny), and we didn't get it.
Hmmmm....
Then again...
but when people are freaking, nothing is funny.
HEY YOU SEEM SMART MAYBE U CAN HELP ME??? I'M NOT TRYING TO YELL BUT MY CAPSLOCK IS STUCK ON AND I CAN'T GET IT OFF. I GET NASTY POSTS ON FACEBOOK NOW CAUSE EVERYONE TELLING ME TURN IT OFF AND STOP YELLING. THEY SAY PRESS CAPSLOCK BUT I DID, EVEN DID IT TWICE, EVEN 4 TIMES!!! IT DOESN'T WORK PLEASE HELP!! IT'S TEARING MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY APART!
That’s because TD heavily weights opinions from especially perspicacious commenters.
/sarc
My particular perception of reality being paid in dividends. Thanks TD.

"perspicacious?!" that's a hot word...if you had used that in conversation with me, I'd want to take you home. Nice!
:-) this is a website with javascript, where ur not alone. At least here.
This Youtube clip showed 309 views several hours ago. They even manipulate the viewing stats. Fuck me, is there anything these cunts don't have a hand in.
Yet it has 580 likes and 10 dislikes...wth?
Shhh! You're being paranoid and delusional. There's nothing to see here, just move along.
I've seen the youtube counter phenomenon going back years to early Alex Jones stuff, where people were very concerned... apparently the counter is not constantly updated; sometimes it will delay for a few hours, then jump a few thousand at once. Doesn't seem like a problem.
My time is 22:09 BST (British Summer Time). The Youtube search results also show 309 views.
But.. When I view the clip it shows 2388 views. I don't admit to knowing anything about Youtube but could this Youtube search result be something that always happens?
And my one cents worth.. Crash that Fucking Euro quickly before the "Cunts that be" offload another bailout of €1.5 trillion onto taxpayers. Fuck em all.
Not even 7,000 views.
7:38 A.M. Pacific Standard 374,932 views
They've been screwing with that for weeks and it only seems to affect certian types of channels: Mox News, Alex Jones, people who are in the truth movement with so many subscribers to name a few examples. it's pissing me the eff off.
I think between what has happen to SGTBull and Dutchsinse, it's clear the truth tellers are becoming "public" enemy #1.
Fight the Power!
Would not be surprised within the next year to see this guys photo online with the underlying caption.....death ruled accidental.
I <3 Alessio Rastani.
He's got a webiste.
http://www.leadingtrader.com
If you scroll down, he did a great video on why he's bullish for gold and silver long term.
"Safer assets like treasury bonds and the US dollar"
This is playing out beautifully. When the Emperor is finallly revealed to be wearing no clothes gold will be the last man standing.
Aptly the final, or in Sorosian, ultimate, bubble.
By safer I am assuming he means less volatile. He is a trader, he is not going to hold onto bonds or cash for very long. Dollar is strengthening right now, it is logical a trader would be long the dollar until the trend starts to weaken. I hold my nose and hang onto FRN$ now too, because I do not have enough faith that the Bernank will get it right and get us to inflation or hyperinflation. He could screw up (look at his track record) and push the economy into deflation, hell, that is where it wants to go anyway.
Berspanki says his concern of deflation, a distraction, as his worldwide distribution of dollars which will return home, is beyond your imagination. Hyperinflation is 100% Guaranteed.

I've been buying 500/month for months now...
I posted this under the Austrian Newspaper Front Page thread, also.
Even if there's some incredible coordination, and they manage to bail out PIIGS+France+UK (which is not going to happen, but I digress), they won't fix the underlying condition that led the EU to their crisis in the first place (just like neither has the U.S.), and so what they're proposing to do is merely some extraordinarily expensive can kicking, which will lead to the necessity of doing the same extraordinarily expensive can kicking some months or a year or so from now, again, as Europeans see their standard of living wiped out, savings wiped out, and their underlying economic structure continue to deteriorate (and in the EU, they have the additional problem of having these conditions lead to true rage that pits nation vs nation).
There was a report on NPR's MarketWatch this morning (yes, it's public radio, yes it's a scam, and yes, MarketWatch is nearly as bad as CNBS with the sell sider propaganda. Don't ask why I was listening to it; it wasn't by choice) that the EFSF will be funded with a minimum of 2 trillion EUR, though details on who will contribute what amounts were non-existent (big surprise).
In any event, given that Merkel is being pummeled in the court of German Public Opinion, and that Sarkozy's party just suffered massive losses in French elections (much as Merkel's party recently did), and given that Germany and possibly two other far smaller Euro States are solvent, while PIIGS+UK+France are all as technically as insolvent as Greece (since none of these nations will ever pay back their debts absent massive EUR printing and a TARP-like program to buy their bonds - aka Suck It Up, Europeans who saved, have money, and acted responsibly - only to kick the can, and not restructure the fatal flaw in the EU), I'd imagine it would take multiples higher than 2 trillion EUR being printed and freely distributed to save the EU, if even temporarily.
The U.S. Treasury, aided by the Federal Reserve, injected 5.2 trillion USD to try and bail out banks and bad financial actors (on the backs of taxpayers), and even that isn't going to stop the full court depressionary economic press.
I'd imagine that if the European Sadists who apparently want to punish Germany and solvent EU Member States are serious about kicking the can far down the street, they'll need to scrape together 3.5 to 4 trillion EUR, for starters. That amount, as an opening bid at can kicking, will be enough to crush the EUR by a minimum of 35%, and then, there are the contagion affects of that to consider, as well as what happens when they have to inevitably print even more EUR to kick the can again (not to mention that such an amount will break living standards all over Europe, and especially rile up Germans as they see their savings literally drained in a matter of a year or so).

Confiscation of all past labour and savings, destruction of all future large income streams.
The financial world as we (of this generation) have known it will abruptly change and all future expectations must realign...or we die.
All the game pieces and board are imminently to be tossed. The markets have been introducing the "soft hurt", the next operation is hard casualties.
Confiscation has always been the object. Confiscation and redistribution.
When soft measures no longer are effective, out comes the hard hand. Take they will, take they must, since they cannot survive by their own production.

At least you're optomistic. The Germans are gonna just love to be screwed three times in a hundred years - by the same bunch.
Some people had jobs, did regular work, a baker let's say. What was the rational for throwing in the baker with the banker? Big mistake.
this is a very articulated analysis. Here is just a humble addition to it. finmins attending the G20 meeting in DC are probably aware that 2 Trillions will not be enough. I guess that they throw that number to test public opinion. Once they get the public consentment to that, they'll probably come and say oh wait: we will need an additional 3 Trillions.

I always run into the problem of "Do I buy more silver or jacketed lead?" Decisions, decisions...
That's why you should rely on the silver/jacketed lead ratio, because ultimately, all value is relative.

I"m confused. The baseball bat catalog doesn't identify which bats are best for self-defense, rioting, and general head-bashing. Do I want a light-weight alum. bat or a heavier wooden one?
One of each?
Get yourself a "fungo" bat...light, agile and easy to use...
Top Tip for ZH. You dont need a base ball bat.
Wherever you may be, you can usually find a magazine, Vogue is fat and glossy,Time is a bit limp but will work in a pinch.
Roll said magazine into a shaft, said magazine has a tensile strength close to that of steel.
Apply the shaft with ferocious velocity too the offending parties throat , abdomen, genetalia.
End to end, your not swatting a fly with a rolled up newspaper.
This little bit of info is a gift, if you should find yourself in a Sticky situation.
It is always delightful to have a chat with an SAS bloke in a pub, they know shit.
Ultra violence, your friend.
Green arrow for naked aggression. Tip: get some N-back training for IQ adjustment.

Carry an extra long and thin zip tie. Zip it around their neck and you never have to even deal with them. Within 10 seconds they are dead on the floor.
Humans are very fragile.
Piano wire is faster and more durable.
FYI, that is compressive strength, not tensile strength. Tensile strength is the ability to resist deformation from pulling.
Correct sir< my bad,
But if your average ZH'er happens to be at the airport and needs to pop a turban bomber between the running lights, he/ she may now have an extra option, just a little tricky trick, the way shit is going, you might need it on an aeroplane one day.
Compresive,Tensile et al will mean nothing when a Douchebag wants to take your property/life.
Grab a magazine and roll it up, hit the sheet rock in your house, see what happens, top tip mate.
The magazines are on the back of the seat next to the Macadamia nuts.
I think you've fallen for one of the oldest "con"versations in a British pub. The bloke you've just met... it goes like this..
"I used to be in the SAS" or "My best mate was/is in the SAS".
Being a UK pub regular I have met at least five people who fit into this category, there are nutters everywhere. As for the rolled up newspaper/magazine, that is true but is something you can read on any half decent "self defence" website or a Sky TV hosted documentary.
Another of their favourite stories is that Osama Bin Laden was trained by the SAS.
What can't beer do?
The magazine thing is tried and tested so I give it with love.
Any bloke that walks into a pub and says he is ex-SAS, IS.
for security reasons.
As for the man below who wishes to lecture me on tensile strength and it's proper usage,all I can say is, watch-out,I have a rolled up magazine.
It's official! I'm nuts! I just came to the realization that the only thing that makes me laugh anymore is reading comments on a financial website. I need help

It's hard to go wrong with the strength and impact resistance of a solid oak club. For the do-it-yourself craftsman/craftswoman, a drilled-out end cavity filled with molten lead adds a nice touch. Such an inlay would be the envy of any angry mob.

good club?
The time tested, Buford Pusser approved hickory ax handle. You can even get them in king size.
I have a hickory handled 'hawk. Tough stuff.
you had me up until "spiritual"
faith and religion have nothing to do with this
Yours is a narrow definition of spiritual.
I'm with you.
Jesus didn't die for our economic collapse, or whatever measurement of spirituality you try and conjur. I don't play into that bullshit.
P.S.,
Shazbots -- Tribes player -- or just ... "weathered"?
Sarc on/ Jesus made sure that we could sin, he died for them. Sarc off/ There are parts of religion that make us complacent.
I am still not sure why anyone thinks of spirituality and religion as the same. Have you never loved? Wasn't that spiritual?
And what about a code of ethics? They may fluctauate with the mind, but everyone sans psychopaths have them. This is a spiritual code. This is our humanity, and we are losing it one moment at a time.
I say stand up and count yourselves as spirits. Or else fall to the wayside as a casualty of the corporate war machine.
while organised religion, with belief in any gods, is not a part of my being-ness, I am with you in spirit.
nothing more, nothing less.
don't forget... Jesus physically attacked the money changers. does anyone really think that the criminals back then are different than today's criminals? same group still at work.
Totally. In fact that's the only reference in the new testiment of Jesus getting angry like that. God's all about honest weights and measures.
Not quite. I believe he got pissed off at a fig tree as well for not having any figs when he was hungry. I seem to remember "May you never bear fruit again" and a tree dieing.
Though I openly admit it has been some time since I read the Bible.
That to my understanding was more of a spiritual reference having to do with the condition of a good tree (person) not bearing any fruit (righteous deeds). Someone more learned could probably add to that interpretation.
Ah but He didn't jump bad, grab a stick and start whoopin its ass..
Since when is beating someone's ass that deserves it bad?
How do we know he didn't? Just because He's the Prince of Peace doesn't make Him a pussy.
He just cancelled the tree's contract. He took a whip to those moneychangers. He ain't a wuss.
Luke 22: 36 ..........but if you do not have a sword,sell your cloak and buy one. J.C.
& don't forget that in the past 500 years, those 'money-changers' have been thrown out of every country in Europe at one time or another .
Now most of them live on Central Park West.
religion is the map..... spiritualty is the territory
'Spirit' is one of the few labels I find to be truly applicable.
http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/pearljam/iammine.html
I wouldn't be so sure of that. There are plenty of references, parables, about wealth and money and not all bad. The Black Horse of the Apocolypse seems to be about the destruction of wealth of the nations. The Black Horse is riding...????

For those too dense to learn their lesson the first time around!
let me remind you, there is no 'we'
there is the 'we' here on zerohedge....and none of us stood with those on wall street protesting over the weekend
if 'we' were truly a 'we', we would have stood , millions strong, together with those protesting
but we didn't
why?
because there is no 'we'
the collective 'we' has different goals, aspirations et al
we will never stand as one
never
we are divided, by race ,religion and a thousand other things
and divided WE shall fall
not a troll
just a realist, and therefore, a fatalist
there is no super man or bruce willis hero for us to rally behind
and if there were, he would be rapidly eliminated
and thats a fact
read your history, and dont go back far...you dont need to
3% of the poluation standing together at once is what it would take to effect change...and we might just get the change egypt got...none at all
9 or 10 million people rallying together with one voice....good luck with that
good luck
"I" fully support "Your" message!
I agree with you about the majority of our society, but need I remind you, we send the soldiers to war, and keep others back at camp to watch the children. Arm up hoss, we will be needing everyone of us able to fight.
we dont send soldiers to war....government does
i was one...trust me
we will be needing everyone of us able to fight.....theres that 'we' again
You have me on a technicality concerning "sending", I didn't mean it like that. It is your choice, fight or do not. As far as we; as in society, the collective. There is such a thing out there, my friend.
Recognizing that there is no we (something I touch on all of the time, as there is no state). does not have to be seen as a fatalist view, but rather an individualist one.
Some of us believe that only via the enlightenment of the individual, can a harmonious society naturally emerge. Anything less is but a madman with a gun.
As for the power of individuals, just imagine how clean the world would be if everyone swept their own doorstep.
but do you expect simultaneous enlightenment of the individual?
100th monkey.
Bodhisatvas do
bravo, sir
No, certainly not. But then again, I don't think it's necessary.
Ideas come, and ideas go, as the ability to believe in them or not, is rationalized over time. To expect a world full of adult children to suddenly mature is unrealistic. Instead, they will cling to their false beliefs as they are consumed by them, to be replaced by those who cannot afford to live a childish life.
This remnant will always exist, as they cannot blind us all. For even in darkness, reality emerges to those willing to engage their senses.
stand up and count yourselves as spirits
I like this. No doubt that a "spiritual" revolution is underway. More and more peple are feeling the energy of it.
we are divided, by race ,religion and a thousand other things and divided WE shall fall
We are one and are connected to every other one and every created thing by virtue of our energy. We're not going to fall, there are too many of us who can feel it changing and happening. We are powerful.
there is no super man or bruce willis hero for us to rally behind
The thing is that we all have our own super inside to rally with. And, the beauty of it is that we don't need a demonstration ...we can project our consciousness, our energy and
rally together with
powerful bursts and multitudes of individual bursts of thought creating balance and harmony and peace.
the hippie movement never changed anything before, and it wont know
all it helped to happen was stricter drug laws
hippie movement my ass. drugs? hell no.
if you haven't learned yet that your thoughts, words and actions literally create your reality, you're one of the non-awake and you're not tapped into your source of power.
"Illusions" by Richard Bach
Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours.
The best way to avoid responsibility is to say, "I've got responsibilities."
The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts.
You're going to die a horrible death, remember. It's all good training, and you'll enjoy it more if you keep the facts in mind.
Take your dying with some seriousness, however. Laughing on the way to your execution is not generally understood by less advanced lifeforms, and they'll call you crazy.
Your friends will know you better in the first minute you meet than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years.

Great book, there are a lot of ways to be spiritual without having to be enslaved by religions. On an off note I am wondering how you would think about a grown person that SERIOUSLY believed in Santa or the Easter Bunny? Especially if they got really bent out of shape at you for not believing in them? Would it taint your faith in their words and actions, would you trust them a lot less? What if they went door to door making it their mission to convince as many people as possible to also believe in them? How much respect can you really have for people that espouse what to the vast majority of people is a crock of shit? Leprechauns? Tooth Fairy? If the world is such a bad place and you so impotent to deal with it that you need to conjure an invisible and silent god and then force that psychopathic creator on the rest of us, well, it is not the "sinners" that need the help.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3Ky8zTh6DY
I am not going to the expense of traveling to that abominable armpit of the world to waste my time attending a demonstration on Wall Street that is scheduled on a Saturday. That just stinks to high heaven as an opportunity for TPTB to siphon off some rage, kick ass and take names without inconveniencing anyone. I'll come and take my lumps when the objective is to shut the fucker down.
All that this kinda talk will do is clog the down pipe and if everyone jumps back on the down we'll go straight back up to the top of the range again ugh.
And get rid of the politicians at their mercy!
Our war is a spiritual war. Our depression is our lives.
lol. cheerleader.
Those who speak in 'we' are usually the mouthpieces that'll let others do the dirty work.
I've got no reservations about getting my hands dirty--but spare the bullshit. No need for some pom-pom waving moral officer to motivate people. People'll find it within themselves to do what they need to do: they don't need pollution from some propaganda "we" machine.
That is fair, but look amongst you, there is an us. We should know that we are many so we can know how to act tactically. I buy silver, so do others. We are tallking back our wealth, as it is we who deserve it. The criminal banking syndicate, they are not we. We are against them. They are our opponent. If you wish to move ahead I applaud you, and wish you good luck.
Also note there is a society; in total in may lay in shambles, tattered and almost ruined, but just as anything, it can be picked up, for it is an idea, and ideas are limitless. You can pick yourself up, and that will help us. So pick yourself up and keep moving.
and the crux....the criminal banking syndicate
they act together, as 'we' dont
they seem to have one goal and act upon it together...tactically
and as long as they control the wealth, power, media, as they do, the non-awake...people 'we' need in our ranks ,will remain oblivious to reality
this is the divide and conquer the 'theys' have perfected
to set us against one another, by religion, race, right/left paradigm
the 'theys' will set 'them', against us
by propaganda, elections and ideals..branding 'us' terrorists if 'we' ever were able to act
talking shit on the net will get us nowhere
seek out people in your neighborhood, not even community of like mind, speak to those who are not of like mind
this needs to start at such a grass roots level, a block at a time or there will never be a 'we'
and it takes a phenominal amount of time just to get five familys on the same page
yet everyone is looking at building a nation of the awake
these fuckers have been working at this for generations
i see just as you do what i think needs to be changed
but such a system has been put in place at all levels to prevent it, the task is sysiphean in nature to change what at all levels has been built to maintain a status quo we dont even grasp
Holy Smkoes, H! Once again you have earned admiration from the often cynical Shineloa with your crystal clear truth and logic!
I could get used to this.....ya know,.....post crash, I mean.
Be advised, Mr. Hendrix, the Fed of NYC may be monitoring you:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/66281284/Frbny-Social-Media-Rfp
(Thanks to Zerohedge for the info!)
But, if anyone in politics (hah!) or the American government (double-hah!!) is serious, the Fed and the top ten banksters would immediately be nationalized along with the re-establishment of the financial transaction tax to end or curb speculation.
(Why buy silver?? Afraid of werewolves? It's those stinkin' zombies I'd be wary of!)
Ain't masked parties grand?
And Nationalize the Fed? First we would audit it, and upon finding out it was bankrupt I think we would throw it to the wolves.
And silver, well, it's a long story. I am sure you will hear all about it.
Step 1: Comprehend that we are engaged in a fight to the death.
Step 2: Define who is us and who is them.

Gee, after all this time if there's someone out there still clueless that the banksters peddled all that securitized debt --- as in hundreds of trillions of dollars of worthless credit derivatives -- they must be awfully mentally lazy???
You loan me $10.00 --- I give you back an IOU for $12.50 --- you tear that IOU into a thousand pieces and sell it for $10,000 valuation --- eventually people might just expect that $10,000 or so --- but I only promised $12.50 so where's the rest to come from????
And that is the problem in a nutshell --- only much, much larger in scope.

1. the Federal Reserve Bank that is OWNED by its Share Holders.. which are! Wall Street Brand Name Banks! are looking to gauge how much further they can push before the breaking point. And as dumb as the Populace is! I say they could bend things around Pluto and back more than once, without fear of upsetting the napping "Sheepish Consumers".
2. Wall Street communicated or transferred or moved ATLEAST! 11 Million manufacturing Jobs to China.
3. Wall Street which owns the Federal Reserve not only allows but promotes China's buying of America's debt with a Yaun or Renminbi that is Leveraged at over 1,200%.
