Wow, did you see gold?! Larry Edelson | Wednesday, October 12, 2016 at 7:30 am Gold has crashed. So has silver. So have senior and junior miners. All just as I had forecast. Gold getting down — so far — to as low as $1,243. Silver to as low as $17.11 (both basis December futures contracts). The typical senior miner has shed more than 30% since early August, as measured by the AMEX Gold Bugs Index. And all this despite … ➔ Just about every analyst on the planet calling for a new bull market. ➔ The possible failure of Deutsche Bank, one of the largest, riskiest banks in the world, leveraged 40-to-1 with derivatives. ➔ The craziest, most destructive ...

yout u.be/3pIfo1Dynjg hopefully that link loads right from my cell phone. probably not as this technolgy hardly ever gets anything right. Just like solar roadways. Yes some solar roadways have finnally been deployed... kinda. In a rest stop in Misourri (sp) , a few panels have been places in a walkway. Most did not work upon arival and of the ones that did light up half broke in the first week but heres the real kicker. None of them arw producing power. External power is making them light up... and unlike the solar roadways imaginations, the LED lights are still not bright enough to be seen in the day time.... their kickstarter earned over 2 million dollars and the MO government chipped ...

Qamsari added that Grupa Lotos – which is Poland’s largest oil refining company ...

Bloomberg... Harvard University’s Oliver Hart and Bengt Holmstroem of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology were awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Economics for their work on contract theory and its role in shaping everything from executive pay to public sector privatizations. Work by Holmstroem, 67, in the 1970s, and by the 68-year-old Hart in the 1980s, helped launch contract theory “as a fertile field of basic research,” the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said in a statement on Monday. “Modern economies are held together by innumerable contracts,” the academy said. “The new theoretical tools created by Hart and Holmstroem are valuable to the ...

Ford leaves Australia as nation prepares for car industry closure

MELBOURNE, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- After 91 years, the Ford Motor Company has produced its last car in Australia on Friday. The closure of the Ford factories in Campbellfield and Geelong in the state of Victoria, was announced by the motoring giant in 2013. Ford is not alone in leaving Australia, with Toyota and Holden, which was founded and has its headquarters in Australia, set to leave in 2017. The car workers' union, the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU), said that Australia had never before experienced such a rapid closure of an entire industry especially one as important as car manufacturing - and that between 40,000 and 200,000 jobs would be lost nationally.

The Most Explicit Way to Make Money (And It's Legal) Lawyers... they're only good for one thing - gouging you for every penny you're worth. Michael Lewitt would know because he was once a tax attorney. But he's left that world far behind. And he's taken what he's learned to develop a new investing art form that is so spot-on that you may have a hard time believing it exists. But you'll believe it as soon as you see that you can make money on the same stock over and over again for the chance at $300,000 in profits in a matter of months. But this controversial technique doesn't work on most stocks. Only a select few, in fact. And two just appeared on his ...
The Truth About Yesterday’s Gold Crash
Post Date: 2016-10-05 18:26:55 by BTP Holdings
6 Comments
Gold had its biggest one-day loss in almost three years yesterday. The question is why. There was no shortage of explanations (as usual). The main theme was that the dollar is getting stronger partly due to sterling weakness on new Brexit fears. The market also took the view that a December rate hike is likely (we agree) and higher rates also add to dollar strength. The dollar price of gold is simply the inverse of dollar strength. A strong dollar means a lower dollar price for gold, and a weak dollar means a higher dollar price for gold. There's more to the picture, but that's a good place to start any analysis. This sentiment was captured in a quote in The Wall Street Journal ...
BILL GROSS: Central bankers have turned the economy into a 'casino' that threatens capitalism

Bill Gross is going after central bankers ... again. The famed bond investor at Janus Capital released his monthly outlook for October on Tuesday and again compared the world's central banks to a dangerous game, this time blackjack. Gross noted the theory of a martingale system, in which a gambler in a casino will eventually win if he or she continually increases the size of his or her bets with each loss. Gross then compared the world's largest central banks — the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan, and the European Central Bank — to such a gambler, calling them "martingale gamblers without a purse." "Our financial markets have become a ...

I've built an algorithm that accurately predicts the movement of the price of gold. What should I do with this? Christopher Sean Quigley, I teach economics 101 Updated Feb 29,2016 If you really have such an algorithm, it doesn't make any sense to tell anyone about it or "package and sell it." If you were to package and sell it, it would be direct evidence that you are lying. Why? Because if you have found an inefficiency in the market, by telling people it exists, everyone will exploit it and the inefficiency will disappear (that's how economics works, see an econ 101 textbook). So, telling people about it is a bad idea. I would assume you are lying if you told ...

Why Online Giants Woo Twitter Jon Markman | Tuesday, October 4, 2016 at 7:30 am Marketing has changed. Now it’s all about real-time analytics, artificial intelligence and feeding both with massive amounts of data. To succeed you need all three. Twitter (TWTR) shares surged 39.7% in about three months after several news outlets reported the social media company was engaged in takeover negotiations with a number of big technology and media firms. It’s not a surprise founder Jack Dorsey attracted suitors. Twitter has a huge trove of real-time information. A year ago, it became the lone reseller of that data through its Gnip subsidiary. By putting the company up for sale a year ...

The Election Has Already Been Decided By Damon Geller People get very emotional about major elections, particularly when it comes to how elections impact their money. Yet the scary reality of our modern political system is, your vote doesn’t matter when it comes to who’s really in power. While there are many systemic problems in banking, taxation, trade and monetary policy, none of these systemic problems changes in any meaningfully way by who controls the House, Senate or Presidency. Regardless of changes in party power, politicians don’t hold the REAL power in Washington. No, the sad fact is, the election has already been decided. And the winner is the banking industry, ...

Neither Candidate Gets This Right About The Markets (And It Scares Me) Michael Lewitt October 3, 2016 Last week began with a historic presidential debate and ended under a cloud of worry regarding the potential failure of a truly too-big-to-save financial institution, Deutsche Bank (NYSE: DB). I have been warning for nearly a year that DB is the canary in the coal mine and poses genuine systemic risk. This week fears about the future of the bank came to fruition after the US government asked for a $14 billion fine to atone for DB’s sins during the mortgage crisis a decade ago, an amount that would severely hurt the bank even if it were cut in half. By the week, there were ...

Now that’s more like it. Echoing Donald Trump’s Monday night bull’s-eye regarding the Fed’s thoroughly political essence, Rep. Scott Garrett put more wood to Janet Yellen during yesterday’s hearing: Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J., seized Trump’s mantle during Wednesday’s hearing, saying “the Fed has an unacceptable cozy relationship” with the Obama administration and Democrats. “As the saying goes, perception is reality,” Garrett told Yellen. “Whether you like it or not, the public increasingly believes that the Fed’s independence is nothing more than a myth.” Of course, it’s a myth and a dangerous one at that.

Secret Alpine Gold Vaults Are the New Swiss Bank Accounts

“There has been a real interest in alternatives to bank deposits.” Deep in the Swiss Alps, next to an old airstrip suitable for landing Gulfstream and Falcon jets, is a vast bunker that holds what may be one of the world’s largest stashes of gold. The entrance, protected by a guard in a bulletproof vest, is a small metal door set into a granite mountain face at the end of a narrow country lane. Behind two farther doors sits a 3.5-ton metal portal that opens only after a code is entered and an iris scan and a facial-recognition screen are performed. A maze of tunnels once used by Swiss armed forces lies within. The owner of this gold vault wants to remain anonymous for fear ...
OPEC Agrees on First Oil Output Cut Since 2008, After Saudis Back Down on Iran

RI... OPEC has agreed to cut its oil output for the first time since 2008, following a capitulation by group's leader Saudi Arabia, which was forced to soften its stance on arch-rival Iran amid mounting pressure from low oil prices. According to Reuters sources in OPEC, the group would reduce output to 32.5 million barrels per day from current production of 33.24 million bpd, however some countries such as Iran were exempt from the cap, and if previous rumors were true, will be allowed to pump even more. Putting the "production cap" in context, the 32.5MMbbl - assuming nobody cheats and this being OPEC is a given - means that OPEC's production is back to early 2016 ...

ScienceAlert... The world’s first hydrogen-powered passenger train has been unveiled this week by French transport company Alstom, which will be operating the incredibly quiet and environmentally friendly 'Coradia iLint' in Germany from next year. The best thing about the Coradia iLint train is that it only leaks excess steam and condensed water into the atmosphere, which means it offers a zero-emissions alternative to Germany’s 4,000-strong fleet of diesel trains. The train was presented to the public for the first time last week at Berlin's InnoTrans trade show. Nicknamed the hydrail, it’s set to become the first hydrogen-powered passenger train to regularly ...

BEIJING, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) -- Xinhuanet.com, the website of China's official news wire Xinhua News Agency, has got the green light for an IPO on the Shanghai bourse. The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) announced the approval Friday night after years of consideration, without elaborating.
