Skousen: Overview of the Banking Crisis – What you need to know

In summary, it is very clear that the government is going to do everything within its money creation and regulatory powers to keep this banking system failure in check. The PTB even trotted out Joe Biden to tell Americans “the US banking system is safe” even as shares plummeted up to 74% in pre-market trading despite president’s guarantee scheme for SVB and Signature Bank.

The financial powers first had to halt all trading in bank stocks while they organized a stock intervention response so the “crash” of bank stocks was blunted. The fact that the “plunge protection team” had to intervene so forcefully to stop the run on bank stocks indicates the big boys aren’t ready for a market crash yet.

WHY THE CURRENT BANKING SYSTEM IS ALWAYS SUBJECT TO COLLAPSE

The collapse of three high-risk banking institutions this week may seem like an anomaly, but it’s not, considering the fragile nature of our banking system. All banks are inherently susceptible to bank runs because they, like insurance companies, are only required to keep a small portion of their assets in cash or liquid assets available for withdrawal within a short time. When cash funds are exhausted, banks must sell their most liquid assets, which are usually in the form of US Treasury bonds. When demands for withdrawal exceed a bank’s cash and liquid assets, the bank becomes insolvent—unless it can get other larger banks to give them some “bridge loans” at higher interest rates, which they just did for First Republic Bank. But they won’t be willing to do if the problem bank’s balance sheet contains too many weak performing loans. Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank both ran out of the foregoing options this week and collapsed, but what was different this week was that the Federal Reserve and FDIC stepped in and decided to bailout all depositors, most of which far exceeded the $250K cap on federal deposit insurance, in order to stave off a larger bank panic. While this may work in the short term, it sets a very dangerous precedent in that it is 1) illegal, 2) rewards risky bank speculation, and 3) it sets up a double standard for bailouts that the government can’t possible fulfill if more banks default. This week I will discuss the many reasons why SVB failed and why other banks are similarly vulnerable.

The banking system is on the rocks again and is generating a lot of fear and trepidation among ordinary people who are asking, “How safe is my bank”?

Both individuals and businesses should be asking that question.

Biden plays Orwell, tries to redefine what ‘recession’ means – during this recession

“All rulers in all ages have tried to impose a false view of the world upon their followers,” George Orwell wrote in “1984.”

On Thursday, the federal government is expected to release statistics revealing that the economy contracted in the second quarter. Since this will be the second quarter in a row that the economy shrank, that fits the established definition of a recession.

So true to Orwell, Team Biden is going to change the meaning of words.

Biden’s Council of Economic Advisors launched a preemptive strike against bad news with a blog post on the theme: “What is a recession?” Despite decades of top economists concurring on a definition, Biden’s appointees treat the topic like an arcane metaphysical dispute that requires a “holistic look at the data.”

Instead of admitting the economy is shrinking, Team Biden touts a test indicating that a recession is not underway unless “the three-month moving average of the unemployment rate rises by at least half a percentage point (50 basis points) relative to its lowest point in the previous 12 months.”

Skousen: BRICS Developing Global Reserve Currency — Don’t believe the hype about this putting the dollar into jeopardy

From World Affairs Brief, 6/24/22

BRICS Developing Global Reserve Currency: Don’t believe the hype about this putting the dollar into jeopardy. BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) was originally formed because these nations were all run by anti-American socialists or Communists. None of these countries have the financial power to create a world reserve currency, anymore than China has the power to complete their Belt and Road initiative. They can do so among themselves but anytime they deal with the West, they have to deal in dollars. Besides, Brazil is now outside of the communist clique, so I doubt they are going to going along with this. It’s more talk than reality. [Russia Today.com]

PROSPECTS FOR AN INFLATIONARY RECESSION

The US economy is at an unlikely tipping point where the common person feels the hurt of stagflation with rising prices, but no more increased income to keep buying at the same pace, while the burgeoning upper middle class and wealthy are still feeling flush with the false perception of increased wealth that higher prices brings initially—only to find out later how little it can really buy. For decades now, low interest rates have driven new business growth including in speculative startups, digital currency and stocks with only marginal value. The easy money has created dramatic levels of perceived new wealth, but only some of it is real—created or spent in the real economy where it contributes to actual growth and helps small business. Most has gone into highly speculative stocks and investments or crypto currencies, since there’s been no incentive to put it in savings at less than 1% interest rates. Thus the economy is booming in some sectors and hurting in others. 15% real inflation has ravaged ordinary people’s budgets but the well-heeled are further up the supply chain where the real effects of inflation are delayed. They still feel like they have huge amounts of money to spare and can afford the bid up prices to get what they want—except where manmade supply problems are slowing down most company’s ability to fulfill sales.

BIDENFLATION STALLS ECONOMIC RECOVERY

A Huge Change in Banking is About to Happen – and You Won’t Like It

Patent attorney John Titus said that the Federal Reserve (Fed) added $4.5 trillion to its balance sheet since March 2020, which is the largest monetary event in the history of the world! Not only did the Fed add a gargantuan $4.5 trillion in reserves, but they did it in such a way that it forced the creation of $4.5 trillion in new bank money, for the express purpose of deliberately causing mass inflation. The Federal Reserve is carrying out this plan under the cover of the so-called pandemic, but the plan was created before Covid-19 was introduced. The plan was drafted by BlackRock and given to the Federal Reserve in August 2019, four months before Covid struck.

How John D. Rockefeller Used the AMA to Take Over Western Medicine

The Flexner Report (which discredited all forms of medicine except allopathy) was the tool by which John D. Rockefeller used the AMA to dominate Western Medicine with Big Pharma drugs.

After the Flexner Report, the AMA only endorsed schools with a drug-based curriculum. It didn’t take long before non-allopathic schools fell by the wayside due to lack of funding.

How John D. Rockefeller Used The AMA To Take Over Western Medicine

The Flexner Report was a very useful tool commissioned by oil magnate John D. Rockefeller. Rockefeller had made a massive fortune with Standard Oil and was setting his sights on gaining a monopoly in the drug and pharmaceutical industry.

However, first he had to get rid of the competition, which consisted of natural non-allopathic healing modalities – naturopathy, homeopathy, eclectic medicine (botanical and herbal medicine), holistic medicine, etc.

Hemp was also a threat to his plans, since cannabis has tremendous medical benefit – it can be used to alleviate pain for numerous diseases and even has anti-cancer properties.

Skousen: Precious Metals, Stocks and Inflation

PRECIOUS METALS, STOCKS AND INFLATION

There seems to be a disconnect between precious metals and inflation. Collecting or investing in silver and gold used to be a reliable hedge against inflation. But ever since inflation started raging above 10% last year, silver and gold have remained flat. More and more traders now acknowledge that both metals are being artificially manipulated downward. My personal opinion, which I can’t prove (because the details are kept hidden) is that the inside players (like central banks) can sell silver and gold on the open market and buy back privately without reporting it, to replenish their stocks and drive down prices.

But stocks no longer follow real trends, and are powerfully manipulatedBreitbart business noted that stocks strangely went up last Monday after the Taliban’s victory over Afghanistan. “The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Averages reached all-time highs on the day that America woke up to find the Taliban once again running Afghanistan” That should have been a down sign for all the billions government is spending on military contractors, but it didn’t seem to matter.

Inflation is actually double digits if calculated the same as in 1980

This Is The Worst Inflation Since The 1970s, And The Stage Is Being Set For The Total Collapse Of The U.S. Economy

July 13, 2021 by IWB

Michael Snyder

How does it feel to live in a country with double-digit inflation?  On Tuesday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics told us that the consumer price index has risen 5.4 percent over the past 12 months, and such a high number shocked a lot of people.  But in order to make a fair comparison to the past, we have to account for the fact that the way inflation is calculated has been changed literally dozens of times over the past several decades.  According to John Williams of shadowstats.com, if inflation was still calculated the way that it was back in 1990, the official rate of inflation over the past 12 months would be about 9 percent.  And if inflation was still calculated the way that it was back in 1980, the official rate of inflation over the past 12 months would be well into double-digits.

HIGHER INFLATION IS HERE—AND IT WON’T BE SHORT-LIVED

Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell had to acknowledge signs of higher inflation but said he won’t be raising interest rates because this bout with inflation will be “short lived.” This week I will tell you why it won’t be short lived and why the Powers that Be (PTB) actually want a damaging period of inflation as part of their drive to undermine the private economy, discredit free markets and further induce people to demand more socialist controls and higher taxes on “the rich.” Ironically, the middle class could soon find themselves in the higher tax bracket as inflation drives incomes higher. By artificially keeping interest rates low, the FED and member banks are systematically denying people’s savings an honest return on their money, and inducing many to seek higher returns elsewhere, in either stocks or cryptocurrencies. Gold and silver, the traditional hedges against inflation are under continued and constant manipulation in order to keep their prices stagnant, which is also driving even more money into the bubble of stocks and cryptos.

Inflation Rising Fast: Even the heavily manipulated CPI is showing inflation has doubled. That equates to a real inflation rate of near 10% per annum and higher. “The U.S. rate of inflation rose to 2.6 percent, a two-and-a-half year high. [the CPI is normal falsified at a low 1.5%] Consumer prices surged in March as well. Gas led the way with a jump of over 9 percent. [building material prices have more than doubled] If inflation creeps up much more, there will be increased pressure on the Fed to raise interest rates. [Breitbart News] And more realistic interest rates may spell an end to the new housing bubble.

Ron Paul: Freedom Eliminates The Evils of Socialism & Fascism

Socialism & Fascism are two sides of the same totalitarian coin, with the latter ideology being an offshoot of the former. While Socialism preaches the State being the sole owner of the means of production, Fascism preaches a partnership of State (Power) and Corporations (Money). Socialism leads to rapid ruin, while Fascism leads to a longer and drawn out ruin. The destination is the same regardless of the speed in getting there. Freedom and free markets are the only escape from this totalitarian vice.

Skousen: Will the Dollar Crash? — “The pool of dollars is so much larger than any other country, they can inflate with near abandon and not have it come to hyperinflation”

World Affairs Brief, March 5, 2021 Commentary and Insights on a Troubled World.

Will the Dollar Crash? Dozens of free market economic writers and sellers of precious metals are predicting the imminent demise of the dollar, as the speculative markets in stocks and Bitcoin surge to record levels. I too am concerned about the uncontrolled money creation the FED is doing to bailout the elite as well as the common citizen hurt by the unnecessary pandemic shutdowns, but keep in mind that the FED has been secretly creating money for decades far in excess of what their public numbers claim. They have been shoveling trillions out the door to bail out European banks for years, not to mention all the pallets full of hundred dollar bills they have shipped to Russia and Middle Eastern countries to pay off oligarchs and warlords.

None of that is recorded. In short, the pool of dollars is so much larger than any other country, they can inflate with near abandon and not have it come to hyperinflation—at least for now. I think they will use the coming war to replace the dollar, however, for a new world currency (controlled by the globalists).
