☆ Israeli Monetary Visibility Techniques Seek To Catch Hidden Wealth Caches

News Analysis: Israeli Monetary Visibility Techniques Seek To Catch Hidden Wealth Caches by converting “Cash Payment Systems” (CPS)  to “Electronic Payment Systems” (EPS). The fact that ‘EPS’ retain recoverable details in Computer Memory Caches allows Government Authorities to find questionable transactions. It is estimated by Israeli Authorities that One Quarter of the Israeli Economy is “Black Capital”; a prodigious amount of money.

Israel in 2012 had a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) amount of approximately $248 Billion Dollars. Per Capita the amount was $32,200.00. The Country’s Taxes and other Revenues amounted to 31.6 % of ‘GDP’. Personal Income Tax Rates go to 50%. Passive Income Rates go up to 50%. A National Insurance Tax of up to 12% is also required.

As long as there are an inordinate number of Male Adults receiving Israeli Government Stipends (while other Israelis have to contribute to the ‘GDP’ of the country) the feeling of the Taxpayers of being mere ‘Freiers’ is very understandable. That many Taxpayers of Israel are engaged in ‘Black Capital’ should not be a surprise; they are disgusted about the “Free Lunches”. Their Tolerance of the other aforementioned Israelis who are “Dining at the Public Trough” for so many decades is the element that is difficult to comprehend, many people say; ‘Meshuga’.

☆ Were The Stock Markets’ “Six-Month Look-Ahead Views” Holograms?

It has been historically cited by Economists that Stock Markets ‘Look Six-Months Ahead’ and then act on their Perceptions. It appears that the ‘Historical Highs’ of recent Market Pricing (circa 2013) was based on Mirages. The Lackluster Economy in America, to date, may give one the impression that the “Bubble Masters” who ‘Pumped Up’ The Stock Markets (and their Mass Media Minions) are really delivering mere ‘Holograms of Economic Recovery’ which do NOT factually exist (instead, mere reproduced images).

If one considers the alleged 1.2 Trillion Dollars spent by the U.S. White House for Bankers along with the 4 Trillion Dollars spent by the U.S. Federal Reserve, such current Economic Malaise is Pathetic. Since the Mass Media are not “Screaming to the Heavens” about the Government’s Waste of Tax Payer Assets, they may be inferred to be accomplices in this Grand Larceny.

It could well be that the anticipated “May-June” ‘Popping of the Stock Market Bubble’ may occur a little sooner than they thought. The Corrected Erroneous Economic Prognostication by the U.S. Government, may cause the “Rats to Abandon Ship” earlier than anticipated. The Stock Market “Freiers” will ask the “Shtarkers” when they see them jump into their Life Boats and depart: “Is the Ship Sinking?” The “Shtarkers” will reply “No. From our view in our Lifeboats we will yell at you when it is.”

☆ The Four+ Trillion Dollar Indebtedness ‘Joke’ On Americans

News Analysis: The Reality of Four+ Trillion Dollars of U.S. Federal Reserve Debt mustered by the ‘Brilliance’ of the departed former head of the U.S.  Federal Reserve is barely recognized by the U.S. News Media. $834+ Million Dollars was the amount that  was initially on the “Fed’s” books when the Employment Term commenced.  

In spite of the expenditures by this aforementioned Economic ‘Genius’, Unemployment in America has remained dismal. In fact more Americans than ever before are not even seeking employment.

The “Fed’s” Approach in propping up the economy, as it tried to do, was a Sophomoric Idea.  Americans (on top of this “Fed” Debt) are  being presently “Hammered” by an Ineptly Designed Health-care Law;  some people say to promote a person’s “Legacy” in American History. If one is to Talk the Talk, He must be able to Walk the Walk. Inexperienced Amateur “Wannabees” need not apply. They just “Mess Things Up”.

Unfortunately for the American Citizenry, the Four+ Trillion Dollars of “Fed” Debt will have to be dealt with by They, their Children, and Grand children; The Damage has already been done by the Person that Departed.

It is alleged than more of the Chicanery will continue by the new replacement at the “Fed” even though only scant benefits have occurred to the American Economy.

One thing Americans can be sure of, the Mass Media will discuss the Effete State of the American Economy in the most Glowing of Terms (as will be expected of Minions of the U.S. White House). Conversely, in the two forthcoming Elections, Americans who are tired of being treated as Freiers, can vote out the Inept Regime with all of its Baggage.

World’s 202 Million Unemployed (And Increasing) Does Not Bode Well For Markets

News Analysis: United Nations’ International Labor Organization (ILO) Data depicts that Contrary to the many joyous sounding pronouncements by Journalism Majors writing in respected Financial Publications, World Unemployment exists for 202 Million Citizens! This is disastrous to Real World Economic Recovery. Making this FACT even more Dire is that 5 Million People were added to the number in 2013. Estimates of 2018, suggest about 215 MILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE ARE EXPECTED TO BE UNEMPLOYED, according to the ‘ILO’.

Since our readers understand our Mantra to be “Reality is the truth”, We want Entrepreneurs and Investors to realize what is ACTUALLY OCCURRING in the Markets.  If one looks at the Stock Markets he or she will be confused by the current  Price/Earnings (PE)  Ratios of Stocks relative to existing and projected World Unemployment. “Since Unemployment is very high, how will people be able to afford things?” they wonder. The answer for the ‘PE’ Ratios is simple: “Bubble Masters” and their ‘Media Minions’ are at work.

“Bubble Masters” took the “Real Estate Bubble” and transferred some of their gains to the “Precious Metal Bubble” at the appropriate time. They then deflated that ‘Bubble’ by selling $20 Billion Dollars of Gold on the Market [in ‘One Shot’] gaining Media attention. They took some of their “Precious Metal Bubble” funds and went to work creating the present “Stock Market Bubble”; each ‘Bubble” is in Serial Fashion, isn’t it? 

As the “Bubble Masters” work, London Inter-bank Official Rates Scandals and Precious Metal Price Fixing Scandals Continue apparently unabated. These ‘Shenanigans’ are certainly dis-incentives to Invest.

Unwise ‘Freiers’ (who keep investing and losing the monies) need to stay ahead of the ‘Bubbles’ (not behind them). By Consulting with LEGITIMATE Seasoned International Professionals they can learn where to place funds and what ‘Scams’ to shun. Those who continually  put their “Thinking Caps” on and ‘Connect the Dots’ will have a clear vision of Tomorrow’s Investment Opportunities (‘Bubbles’ or Not). They can help Consulting to  both Entrepreneurs as well as Investors. Their knowing “Tomorrow Is Today, Today Is Yesterday” causes them to ‘Always Sleep With One Eye Open’.

★ ‘Sailing Away’ With The Public’s Monies Are Not “Sail Riggers” But “Currency And Precious Metals Riggers”

News Analysis: The London Inter-Bank Official Rate (LIBOR)  has been connected to $300+ Trillion Dollars in Derivatives, Loans, and Various Securities over the past few years (and seen as the “Benchmark” others could emulate), however  it WAS Manipulated. The Scandal might be joined by possibly another Criminal Cabal: Foreign Currency and Precious Metals Rigging.

Some Currency ‘Insiders’ are thought to engage in “Fixing” the $5.3 Trillion Dollar A Day Foreign Exchange Market. Foreign Exchanges and the Precious Metals Markets are all under the scrutiny now of Various Nations’ Government Officials for much of the same reasons as ‘LIBOR’; Market Manipulation/Price Fixing.

The 10:30 A.M and the 15:00 P.M. Price Setting for Gold is supplanted by Silver’s Price Setting at Noon in London. Many say that there is more than sufficient time for “Insiders” to work their deals in the ‘Plots’.

Perhaps more nefarious regarding certain Commodities is: Purchasers of “Precious Metal Paper” (Certificates) rather than the Actual Bullion may want to rethink their position: Is the Commodity[s] that they ‘Own’ really in existence? Is the “Security Savings” by not taking possession worth the risk that the Precious Metals might be that of others (“Double Sales”)? Creating a “Piece of Paper With Ink On It As A Certificate Of Ownership” is much easier than creating a Bar of Gold (‘Aurum’ originates from collisions with Neutron Stars).

As Germany is wisely repatriating its bullion from the U.S. Government after allegedly requiring a Physical Audit of “Its’ Gold, investors should do the same. The “68 Foot Cube” of Gold represents allegedly, all that has been mined and processed to date many say. There are 171,300 Metric Tons in Circulation ($9.6+/- Trillion Dollars worth); yet, wisely, Germany repatriated some of its Gold Bullion! 

The Untold Gains by “Inflating or Deflating” Commodities and Currencies, many Legitimate Law Enforcement Officials presume, is to be in the Billions of Dollars a Year. They are thwarted however by “Sharing the Wealth” of the Perpetrators (with other Accountants, Bankers, Corrupt Government Officials, and Traders). These associated Miscreants perpetuate the ‘Scams’ on the Freiers who think the FANTASY: “All  Exchanges and Markets are Legitimate”. 

‘The bigger the market, the bigger the thieves that are in it’ many Legitimate Law Enforcement think.

Great White Sharks Do Not Inhabit Small Lakes.

★ Wealth Advisers: Thousands Are Available Now (To Increase Bankers’ Wealth)

News Analysis: Banks are hiring additional Wealth Advisers, beyond the present Thousands, (to increase the Wealth of Bankers). As more of these people are hired, one must ask: What “Real-World” Experience do they have in: Aeronautics, Agriculture, Building Construction, Manufacturing, Mining, Science, Shipping, or Technology? These are Core Industries, in varying degrees,  for Countries World-Wide.

All too often, the Public is addled by the Marketing by Financial Institutions (FI’s)  into thinking the ‘FI’s’ have all the answers of the Financial Future of Humanity; Hardly!

The end-result desired by the ‘FI’s’ is ‘significant’ Profitability Increases for themselves FIRST. As a follow-on, Client’s Monetary Growth above (however slight) a country’s Consumer Price Index  is Acceptable. A Party interested in Wealth Retention will be appeased by such mediocre performance, hopefully.

2013, was a well ‘Manipulated Market’ for Stocks (as one views a Snap-Shot). To those ‘FI’s’ who point to Clients’ Wealth increases in 2013, one can ask: “Please repeat this performance in 2014”. Many experienced International Investors  think ‘FI’s’ will be “Rolling Sevens” as in a ‘Crap Game’. To add ‘legitimacy’ to 2013 Stock Market Performance, one can expect that 2014 will also come in ‘Like a Lion’ (but ‘Go Out Like A Lamb’).

The “Legitimacy Factor of 2014” in support of 2013’s “Manipulated Market” should ‘Peter-Out’ in approximately a May-June, 2014, time-frame. By continuing out several months into 2014, the Public may think that all-is-well and invest their funds without discretion. ‘FI’ Wealth Managers will be more than happy to accept the funds. The public will be reassured by the ‘FI’s’ that “2014 will replicate or out-do 2013 AND continue into 2015!” Retail and Investment Bank Managers will be “Shorting their Investments while ‘Going Long’ for their Clients”; this is REAL WORLD History for many Wall Street Bankers in particular. “Fleece the Freiers” is their Mantra.

Wise Investors understand that a “One-Year Performance Snap-Shot” is hardly indicative of a Substantial Enduring-Over-Time Investment Market. It is more suited to ‘Day-Traders’. It is also very indicative of a “Artificially Created Bubble”! Where is the Support for this 2013 Market? There is minimal: Manufacturing of Big-Ticket Consumer Items such as “Business Jets” and Yachts: Large Service Contracts; Large Private Employment of Persons with College Degrees or Advanced Degrees.

It appears that, regarding Employment (at least in America) the Federal Government has had the largest employment increase. The National Security Agency and Transportation Security Administration are both bulging with employees many people think. These employees lessen the Unemployment figures which the ‘White House’ loves to allude. 

For 2014, a Wise Investor will have to consider: “Should my Gains remain (by ‘Cashing Out’) or ‘Play and possibly Pay’ on or before a Stock Market Collapse?”

As 2013 ends today, the “Bubble Masters” will be celebrating the New Year with Champagne (as they gleefully anticipate the next Incipient Bubble; of their creation).

Reality.

★ 2014 Equity Investments: “Stay Long” Is A Fool’s Song

News Analysis:  As to 2014 Equity Investments, it becomes a Year of less capability of Central Banks to play “Interest Rate Lowering Games” (IRLG)  to Support their Economies. With ‘IRLG’ already, in 2013, at historic lows  in most countries, do Central Banks “lower rates into negative ranges”? Effectively: Do these Banks pay Borrowers for the Borrowing of monies from the Banks?

Since MANY Banks throughout the World already have questionable loans made to customers, if the borrowers start defaulting, en-masse, what happens to the Banks? What happens to Equity Markets? Can ALL Banks even pass ‘Stress Tests’?

Central Banks can be ordered to print more Money (mere paper with ink on it); Supported by Next To Nothing. For example, if a “Super Power”, which already has $17+ Trillion Dollars in Debt, wants ‘Monetary Expansion’, it works its ‘Bureau of Printing and Engraving’ Presses 24 hours a Day, Seven Days a week and ‘Voila” More Money! No problem! Inflationary Effects of such behavior can be curtailed in the Short Term only. The effect on the populations’ thoughts are “Things are not bad. People have money”. They spend the money and a ‘Multiplier Effect” takes place creating activities financially.

However, since the money is based not on increases in Gross Domestic Product of the Country, but on Printing Capacity, a ‘Mirage” of Good Economic Health exists (Until the ‘Patient” coughs)

Covering the Costs of War, Natural Calamities (such as America’s “Hurricane Sandy” hitting New York City, Tornadoes, or Tsunamis (like the Fukushima, Japan Incident) can  be the “Cough” the Central Banks can ill-afford. The Delayed Repairs thereafter (as in Hurricane Sandy) evidence the Government’s actual lack of financial resources (to which it is loathe to admit). Additionally, borrowing more money by Central banks increases Debt Service Expenses.

One must ask, how can the Stock Markets be at “Highs” with Weak Economies and Poor Prospects for Growth in 2014? What major Manufacturing Programs are currently occurring? Where are “High-Dollar” Service Contracts being let? Are there large  areas of the Economy paying “Good Wages”?  Is National Employment at high levels?

“Markets look SIX MONTHS Ahead” is the Stockbroker’s Mantra. Current Market Prices Of Stocks are NOT supported by Economic Realities, many people think; Not of 2013, nor 2014.

In Not “Actually Solving the Economic Problems”, as aforementioned, the governments turn to their Civilian Banks who utilize the services of the “Bubble Masters”. These are the platoon of Economic Marketeers, including the Mass Media, who start ‘blowing their “Bugles” for a ‘Charge’ into a particular Industry they have already prepared. The Bankers, Brokers, and their  ‘Buddies’ win, other lose; and so it goes. One should realize: The present  “Stock Bubble” will collapse (as did the “Gold Bubble” before it and the “Real Estate Bubble” preceding the Gold Bubble)!

“Listening to Brokers will make one ‘Broker'”, many cautious people say. Brokers opine that “2014 will be a Year of Cautious Investing” while they and their friends ‘Short the market’ (to get every ‘Last Dime’ from the “Freiers”).

 A Wise Investor may think: “Do I want to risk my current gains by seeking every  last Penney or do I cash out now and Plan for Tomorrow; with my Gains of Today?” 

When Brokers say “Stay Long” (with mediocre realities), Smart Thinkers ask “Why?”.

As the Wise Investor considers to hold or sell his or her Equities, Bankers, Brokers, and their Buddies consider which new “Market Bubble” they will create; for them to Win, others to Lose.

Very Smart Investors consult Others who can correctly ‘Connect the Dots’ for determination of ‘Incipient Economic Bubbles’ so they also can Win in these ‘Carnival Games’.

Reality.
