The issue with accepted haircuts coming out of Greece in my humble opinion is the biggest news out there. if the Greek creditors can't agree on what % they will accept things will get awful quick.
The Bloomberg article on the Fed being "ready to ease" is below even their low standards.
So if Benny hits the print button it would further devalue the dollar and then hyperinflation? Do I have that correct?
gold and silver paper prices collapsing, maybe the market is awakening to the rehypothecation ponzi scheme. it will be interesting to see if the physical dealers lower their prices
the three german online stores i always buy from have lowered their prices by (a riduculous) 10 cents per ounce since two days ago.
The smart sellers decoupled from the automatic adjust-to-spot.
My PHYS is down 10% and my PSLV is down 20%, do I panic?
You buy more
You buy more of the new currency on the planet.
It's about to hit the fan badly... and Russia's aircraft carrier is off Scotland...

The United States has drafted a plan with its Arab allies to establish a no-fly zone over Syria.
Western diplomatic sources said the administration of President Barack Obama has reached agreement with Saudi Arabia and other Arab allies to impose measures meant to topple the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
“The no-fly zone does not have to be enforced throughout Syria, only in areas used by Assad’s military,” a diplomat said.
Under the plan, the United States would supply fuel, weapons and intelligence to maintain the no-fly zone. The sources said Turkish and Arab fighter-jets would challenge the Syrian Air Force as well as monitor Assad’s ground forces.
what has it been 6 months were the Greek haircuts have gone from 30% to 50% to now 90%....and with their economy tanking..its going to 100%....and the IMF and the EU keeps giving them money...lol..and gold and silver are down...you could not force me with a gun to my head to buy a EU bond or a USA treasury right now....so I am totally perplexed....actually hungover again...this market is killing me
Wednesday, December 14, 2011 China Faces Its First Real Estate Crash Comment: The real estate sector in China is definitely on the verge of collapse. Land prices were down 60% year-on-year in September. Property transactions have plummeted. And developers are cutting prices by as much as 30% on existing apartment inventory (which has led to rioting from existing owners). It's not clear whether intervention by the PBOC could help the Chinese economy at this point. Also watch for trouble with nonperforming loans in the banking sector. --NK

Better head for cover. When 1.6 Billion people get angry...can be nasty.
Is Krugman right about Hungary collapsing into a "soft" one-party state? Because either Krugman is wildly inaccurate (not a possibility I'm discounting...) or the media in the UK and Ireland has been asleep at the switch. Living in Ireland, the first I heard about it was when I saw that Krugman editorial reproduced in the Irish Times!
Zh, I think you are missing something important; India’s currency, the rupee, has hit an all-time low against the US dollar, prompting fears that the country could soon face a financial crisis. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/asia/2011/12/2011121313562236434.html
SP500 daily chart resumes choppy downtrend. Opposite for USDX.
My long term indicators have continued to warn of USD strength and EURO weakness and these signals have increased since 2009. The overdue dollar rally should be substantial.
