Keep an Eye on ‘Bitcoin’ as the Next ‘Financial Crisis’ Starts! / Stock-Markets / Bitcoin
By: Chris_Vermeulen
‘Bitcoin’ is on a tear away rally. Its’ performance, over the last year, has been outstanding and it has outperformed most ‘asset classes’, by a wide margin. It is probably the only asset class which beats out both gold and silver, in 2016. Why is it shooting into outer space?

Erdogan Might Have Known about the Coup but Didn’t Prevent It on Purpose / Politics / Turkey
By: John_Mauldin
A coup has to be carefully planned for many weeks. It requires endless meetings and preparation. Many thousands of troops, tanks, helicopters, and all the rest, must suddenly appear in the streets and take over.
And all of this planning has to take place in complete secrecy. Without the element of surprise, there is no coup.

From Gold Chains for Men to Gold Reserves: Who has All of the Gold? / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2016
By: Submissions
Karus Chains writes: At Karus Chains we love to write about anything associated with gold chains for men and what could be more central to gold chains than gold itself.
So we asked the question- who owns most of the gold? Of course an open question like this will only throw up more questions.
Should we look at the countries that mine the most gold, or the countries that buy the most gold?

Record Bond and Stock Prices Sending the Same Message / Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2016
By: Michael_Pento
The S&P 500 is trading near an all-time record high. But investors should not take this as the all clear signal. According to most indicators, the market is now more overvalued than ever before.
The Cyclically Adjusted Price to Earnings Ratio analyzes the value of the S&P 500 Index with the 10-year average of "real" (inflation-adjusted) earnings as the denominator to determine if the market as a whole is overvalued or undervalued. Today this ratio sits at 26.73, close to the short-term high of 27.2 seen in 2007 and well above its historic average of around 16.

More Deflation Ahead: Silver, Gold And Their Mining Stocks A Must-Have / Commodities / Gold and Silver Stocks 2016
By: Hubert_Moolman
Are you ready for the next leg of deflation? Where the real pain will be felt (mainly) because the collapse of commodities and oil, in particular, will be accompanied by the collapse of the US stock market.
Due to the size of the cycles involved, it is very difficult for most to comprehend the continued decline in the prices of commodities and oil, while silver and gold rockets higher.

Cop Shootings - America Resembles Gunfight at the OK Corral / Politics / Social Issues
By: Stephen_Lendman
Hollywood is now real life. Instead of good v. bad guys shoot ‘em ups, it’s killer cops against people of color, mostly unarmed Black youths, victims of racist injustice.
Do five Dallas police officers lethally shot days earlier, another 10 wounded and now three Baton Rouge cops killed, seven others wounded on Sunday indicate victims are beginning to retaliate - or perhaps as one of my readers suggests a “gov’t covert ops designed to foment race war.”

With less cash to Spend Abroad, avoid unwanted Credit and Debit Card Fees / Personal_Finance / Credit Cards & Scoring
By: MoneyFacts
As holidaymakers prepare for their trip abroad, they may begin to realise that their travel cash will not be going as far as before. Thanks to fluctuating exchange rates, buying £200 worth of Euros today means €49 less spending money than a year ago, and a similar picture can be seen when buying £200 worth of dollars, with almost $48 less back compared with 2015. With this in mind it is vital for consumers to save cash where they can, and one way to do this is to be wary of using cards abroad.

Will AUD/USD Selling Continue? / Currencies / Austrailia
By: Richard_Cox
Currency markets have seen some interesting moves over the last few weeks and one of the better trading setups can now be seen in the AUD/USD. These scenarios have come largely as a result of recent developments within the central bank.The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) recently announced that it would be willing to take extensive and unorthodox measures to right the economy, if the need arose. The current interest rate is 1.75%. If this turned out to be the case and the RBA opted to decrease the base interest rate to 1%, then options like government bond-buying would be likely considered. Such a measure would likely reduce the value of the Australian Dollar, which is presently trading near 0.76 USD.

Don't Reform the Fed - FedExit! / Interest-Rates / US Presidential Election 2016
By: Dr_Ron_Paul
Opponents of a central bank should take advantage of the post-Brexit vote revival of secessionist sentiments to promote a secession from central banking, or "Fed-exit." Ending the Federal Reserve's monopoly on money is the key to restoring and maintaining our liberty and prosperity.
By manipulating the money supply to fix interest rates, the Federal Reserve engages in price fixing. After all, interest rates are nothing more than the price of money. Like all prices, they communicate information about economic conditions to market actors. Federal Reserve attempts to override the market rate of interest with a Fed-favored rate distort the price signals sent to businesses, investors, and consumers. The result of this distortion is a Fed-created boom, followed by a Fed-created bust.

Trump/Pence Dog and Pony Show Kick-Off / ElectionOracle / US Presidential Election 2016
By: Stephen_Lendman
Politics in America combines image-building with deception. It’s more about theatrics than substance, voters left uninformed about issues mattering most. The fate of the nation and world hang in the balance.
On Saturday in Manhattan, the Trump/Spence train left the station, aiming for triumph in November, not derailment.
Introducing Indiana Governor Mike Spence to a national TV audience, Trump called him “my partner in this campaign.”

Gold And Silver – NWO-Created Tragedies Will Never End, Seek Truth / Commodities / Gold and Silver 2016
By: Michael_Noonan
Nice, France weighs heavily and brings home the point, tomorrow is promised to no one.
The tragic mass-killing of Bastille Day celebrants in Nice, France may not have been a planned terrorist attack, but its consequences are no less extremely sad and equally infuriating. We heard about comments made from neighbors of the truck driver that he was not that religious, was undergoing a divorce and was not handling it very well and apparently snapped.
It matters not if that explanation makes sense in the wake of a senseless act of running over a hundred or so people, killing around 84, including children. The man was shot dead by police, so little else will ever be directly known from the Tunisian known mostly for petty criminal acts but no known terrorist affiliations.
