Keeping our Eyes on the Prize I remember very well, where I was on this day, 4 years ago. I was flying high throughout the entire month of April. I’d just started a new job, but on May 1st, 2011, like many of you, I was glued to the computer screen all day long, with a gut-wrenching feeling in the pit of my stomach. Because, today, 4 years ago…..Blythe Masters and Jamie Dimon, along with various agents of the US government, began a carpet bombing of silver that lasted nearly a whole business week. Instead of having a pathetic pity party today though, I’m going to do something veeeeeery different! I’m going to give you a “Silver SitRep” in the struggle ...

Want... As the energy industry in Canada is struggling to control oil prices, experts and business insiders suggest emerging opportunities for investment, but they warn Chinese investors to hold their horses. Canada's big oil and gas companies start reporting their quarterly financial results this week, which sources in Alberta say could trigger more budget cuts and possibly another wave of layoffs even as crude prices edge up from multi-year lows since last summer. "The volatility is hard to read as to where the bottom is," said Bruce Edgelow, vice president of energy with ATB Financial. "People want to have a sense where the market is going, we hate getting caught by ...

WSJ: World Has Too Much Everything Brad Hoppmann | April 30, 2015 at 4:30 pm Enough already! Crude oil isn’t the only thing glutting the world economy. According to some economists, we have too much of just about everything: money, labor, commodities … even information. The globe is running out of room. This is a big problem, if it’s true. We know how to manage shortages. Managing excess is a completely different problem. Gaining weight is so much easier than losing it. *** Last weekend, the Wall Street Journal featured this curious story: Glut of Capital and Labor Challenge Policy-makers. The global economy is awash as never before in commodities like oil, ...

According to headlines shouting green shoot recovery, rising employment, and a red hot stock market, the answer is Not. Those propaganda headlines come with soothing tales of compassionate, wise, and unified central bankers running the show, having everything under control. One by one, those bankers are now separating their nations' fortunes, and their own, from one another. Many ...

We will still be using "real" money for at least the next 5 to 10 years, but financial transactions carried out using mobile electronic devices, such as smart phones and tablet computers, will increasingly become the norm during that time period, according to research published in the International Journal of Electronic Business. Key Pousttchi and Josef Felten of the University of Augsburg and Jürgen Moormann of Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, Germany, explain how social media and mobile devices are being utilised increasingly by banks while the power of the individual customer is being augmented by the same technologies.

Why America Doesn't Grow Tuesday, 28 Apr 2015 08:36 AM By Peter Morici In this century, economic growth has averaged 1.9 percent per year — down from the 3.4 percent the prior two decades — and anemic growth is a major force squeezing wages, the middle class and working poor. Conservatives and liberals blame too much or too little government. Either way, getting policy right is critical to restoring opportunity for everyone. Here are four issues that will be tough to solve but warrant serious attention: 1. The Baby Drought The birth rate predictably fell during the recent recession but has not recovered. At 948 children per 1000 women, fertility is below what is ...

Brilliant Economists Fail Econ 101 Brad Hoppmann | April 27, 2015 at 4:24 pm With Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in town, our Washington political heroes are working hard to ram a faux “free trade” deal through Congress. Economists are jumping in to help them, too. One Harvard economist identified the problem: voters are just too ignorant about the benefits of free trade. Yes, he really said that. Actually, this voter loves free trade. I might actually endorse the Trans-Pacific Partnership if someone would only show me what’s in it. Unlike the eminent economists, I read agreements before I sign them. *** As we discussed recently in Fast Track to Secrecy and GOP ...

SINGAPORE/TOKYO (Reuters) - One by one, Japan is turning off the lights at the giant oil-fired power plants that propelled it to the ranks of the world's top industrialized nations. With nuclear power in the doldrums after the Fukushima disaster, it's solar energy that is becoming the alternative. Solar power is set to become profitable in Japan as early as this quarter, according to the Japan Renewable Energy Foundation (JREF), freeing it from the need for government subsidies and making it the last of the G7 economies where the technology has become economically viable. Japan is now one of the world's four largest markets for solar panels and a large number of power plants ...

Want... Jason Hu, the former mayor of Taichung, said that it is not necessary for the nation to choose a side between mainland China and the United States, since Beijing and Washington are not playing a zero-sum game, during a seminar held by the Taiwan Foundation for Democracy, a non-profit organization based in Taipei on April 25. Immediately after Hu, who also previously served as Taiwan's foreign minister, became the mayor of Taichung in 2001, he began to push for a normalized relationship between the city and mainland China. Eager for the city to benefit from the growth of China's economy, Hu was one of the very first incumbent mayors to visit Beijing in 2005. "As the ...

It will start deliveries to US customers later this year, but sales in Asia are ...

QE = Debt Cancellation A Conversation Between Richard Duncan and Peter Coyne Peter Coyne: Richard, when we left off yesterday you were talking about globalization and deflation. Mind picking up there? Richard Duncan: Yes. You know, Pete, as I’ve said, the thing everyone should keep in mind is that we’re not starting from some sort of laissez-faire equilibrium state today. We have a massive global economic bubble and its natural tendency is to collapse into deflation. The natural tendency is for this bubble to deflate and on top of that globalization is very deflationary. Today is not like the old days when we had a domestic economy where trade had to balance. Since the ...

Haven’t you always dreamed of owning 298,840 acres of land in… Paraguay? We haven’t either, to be honest. But former president George W. Bush apparently had. Maybe you missed it, but he purchased all that land back in the glory days of 2005 and 2006. Maybe he thought he was investing in the next great retirement destination… We can see it now… strip malls in their dozens, tracts of identical houses from horizon to horizon, fleets of Buicks and Cadillacs doing 22 in a 30. Paraguay Land Can’t you see the potential? Or maybe the Bush clan had something else in mind when they purchased all that acreage in the remote Chaco region of Paraguay… ...
REPORT: JPMORGAN CHASE BANS STORAGE OF CASH IN ITS SAFETY DEPOSIT BOXES

War on cash intensifies Some JPMorgan Chase customers are receiving letters informing them that the bank will no longer allow cash to be stored in safety deposit boxes. The content of a post over on the Collectors Universe message board suggests that we may be about to see a resurgence of the old fashioned method of stuffing bank notes under the mattress. My mother has a SDB at a Chase branch with one of my siblings as co-signers.

At this time last year, the IMF's managing director Christine Lagarde stated, "I hope that we can exhaust all the opportunities under Plan A, and I don't think that our institution should move to Plan B until we have full certainty and massive disappointment that Plan A is definitely dead." This year, the G20 countries reaffirmed that the reform plan is a high ...
