December waterfalls....................from Rico
I was just laughing at some financial media story about how the best asset to be in was equities, followed by bonds (government debt), when I remembered the old Jimmy Hendrix tune "Waterfall" for some reason.
This December's repeated 'waterfalls' in the precious metals may have been that reason. I think the Cartel is very obviously trying to paint the charts for year's end...just as they did LAST December when Gold took a <$220> haircut and Silver <$8>.
Welcome to the annual Cartel holiday dance party. Same old music, same old-same old 'funny' business.
Remember Joe?.................from Rico
I wonder if anyone remembers Joe the Plumber?
- Joe was no fool, he immediately understood what was coming. More people should have paid attention to him.
Here's a graph that shows the plunder of America's 'middle class' and what a co-opted, corrupt, and socialist government under Barry and the Dems (C) have accomplished.
- The very ones that built America are seeing their wealth be 'redistributed' to the poorest and the wealthiest.
More are now riding in the wagon than are pulling the wagon.
- It's going to get worse from here.

Memo to USA Jews, Re: Chuck Hagel...............from Dan Friedman
Dear Brothers & Sisters:
Here's how it works. 70% of you got the president you wanted. Now the president you wanted gets the Secretary of Defense he wants. Bottom line? Stop bitching about Hagel. Get used to it. It’s only going to get worse.
Of course, Brothers & Sisters, you can always look on the bright side. Israel may be under the bus, but there’s still plenty for Jews to kvell about. Your daughters can their get abortions, no questions asked, and your gay children will be able to legally marry. Is this a great country, or what?

Reality OFF.................from Rico
The old market "risk on/risk off" no longer applies. The markets are dead, blow-torched by the Cartel's criminal HFT manipulation and Central Bank 'central planning' of economies. But who needs markets anyway when you have Maynard Keynes?
- Might as well just accept that the 'new normal' is "reality off."
The global dark economic clouds have disappeared!
- The US's debt/spending-fiscal cliff issues have been solved; the USD Index is 'limit up'; Greece has paid-off its debts; Spain has full employment; and everyone in Japan is suddenly 30-years younger.
Besides these enjoyable 'nooners' with Blythe, what a very nice way to help the Chinese prepare to celebrate their upcoming New Year!
