Looks like foreign holdings of US Treasuries might have peaked and started down. This could be significant.

from your other link ----- 'Cantillon Effects'-------- neutral is why we measure against it.

New money i.e maintenance of existing capital is doing what as we speak?

That is when it gets fun Vin since that will not be discussed for obvious reasons.
The government must fail since to covet one must have a heart which rules the mind.
The gal I talked to had no clue on the new care, another was a widow and her husband was suffering
congestive heart failure and a renal desease and paid $150.00 dollar to another doctor that a low sodium
diet was offfered which had been done for countless years. Another wiser than me asked to care for one another.
Until then we will fail and they must learn not to covet since they will fail until that day arises.
Stewards have duties.

Locally as forwarded one had mercy on them this winter only as to being homeless so at least that pittance
of capital can be recycled locally as the keynesian veiled will admit as the fisher number they covet.

crazy idea ----

With all of the problems with the rollout of "Obama care" will there be more cynicism and less trust of the Federal government and media?
After all, if it is suppose to be cheaper etc. and it apparently isn't as it has been sold -- then what?

Govenrment will fail since they cannot even make a pencil and now has over 1/5 of the economy

If it is of good it will not fail, They agreed that these two should go to the heathen, while they continued to preach to the Jews; judging
it agreeable to the mind of Christ, so to divide their work. Here we learn that the gospel is not ours, but God's; and that men are but the
keepers of it; for this we are to praise God.

One of two things must be true. Either the Democrats are unfathomable idiots, who ignorantly pursue ever more destructive policies despite decades of contrary evidence, or they understand the consequences of their actions and relentlessly carry on anyway because they somehow benefit.

A long time ago, Teddy Kennedy said it was all going to blow up one day. It was in the context of discussing the plan to flood the country with aliens to get votes. It's in one of his relatives' books or interviews.

I think silver is looking like it will be going up for awhile.

http://www.kitco.com/charts/livesilver.html

With Yellen controlling the printing press, and no real debt ceiling, I think it is safe to say we have lots of money printing coming. As I understand the "temporary deal", in January the default is the ceiling is lifted, it would take 2/3rds for it not to go up. Can anyone confirm this?

The chart below was found on this site tonight.

I figured it was an approximation so did the calculation. What I found totally blew me away. Both geometric calculations based on fibonacci ratios match the October 17, 2013 date using planetary alignments noted in the other link. The calculations are added to the chart; all other work is that of the author of the blog.

Here's the beginning:

First, there is plenty of reason for hope, so don’t despair, but …

Something is wrong with the people, who seem increasingly partisan, ignorant, apathetic, dishonest, evasive, cowardly, hypocritical, passive aggressive, insecure, conformist, closed minded, irrational, illogical, and unprincipled. Perhaps most obvious is the increase in cognitive dissonance, but the entirety of the character devolution of the people should be really obvious to any American who has lived long enough. I first noticed it during the Clinton Administration, but the root cause actually started long before that and merely caused a rather obvious leap under Clinton.

A lifetime of experience has taught me that just about everyone has the potential for the dark side as well as the potential for nobility. Both impulses are in our genes, but something in our environment is favoring the dark side.

First, let’s identify the rather obvious trends that motivate us to find a cause. Then, we will learn how they all have the same root cause:

Physical health problems are growing exponentially.
(i.e. infertility, cancer, autism, diabetes, Alzheimer's, and allergies.)
Mental health problems are growing exponentially.
(e.g. psychotropic drug prescriptions.)
Prices are going up, and wealth is going down.
Dependency on government is growing exponentially.
Government spending, borrowing, and intervention is growing exponentially.
The only viable political candidates at election time are those lacking principles.
The people who gain the most wealth tend to be those who lack principles.
The people who best climb the corporate ladder tend to be those who lack principles.
The people who gain the most fame tend to be those who lack principles.
The mainstream media suppress reality and promote myths.
(i.e. 9/11, Obama, Clintonomics, anthropogenic global warming, the economic recovery, the police state, Syrian intervention, the Tea Parties, Detroit, race, racism, Trayvon, gender, guns, abortion, homosexuality, the Constitution, history, the free-market, science, innovation, libertarianism, progressivism, fascism.)
Before we can solve a problem, we usually must understand the cause; otherwise, the unintended consequences could be worse than the original problem. In fact, the solutions of the past are the cause of most of our problems today.

Given that those who are most successful tend to be those who are least principled, we can see why every other problem is the result of unhealthy interventions at the top, but how did it get to be this way?

After a few generations of unhealthy interventions from the top by men who may or may not have been principled, we can see how their bad solutions created a perverse incentive structure that rewards bad behavior and punishes good behavior. Just like bad parenting creates a spoiled child who suffers from arrested development, now an entire people are increasingly spoiled children who suffer from arrested development.

The Soviet Union had a system that rewarded unprincipled people, and it crumbled from within.

Everything afflicting the people (that wasn’t caused by evolution) is caused by dishonest banking and a dishonest money supply, and the watershed of problems are self reinforcing. One unusually large cause of problems, that was itself indirectly caused by dishonest banking and dishonest money, is political correctness. Another unusually large cause of problems that was itself indirectly caused by dishonest banking and dishonest money, is media bias.

This is where the real explanation begins.
