In the immediate aftermath of the Fed statement (@ 2 PM) markets fell modestly. Now the Dow is down 138, and interest rates are spiking. Yield on the 10-year bond has hit 2.33% (!), which is the highest level since early 2012.

We’re now five years into the worst recovery in the post-WWII period.
Based simply on historical business cycles, we should already be out of recovery and into a “growth” stage for the US economy. This should have happened even with barely any stimulus from the Fed.
Instead, the Fed has spent TRILLIONS of Dollars and failed to deliver anything resembling economic growth. The number of people who are of working age who [...] BOB JANJUAH: Ben Bernanke Is Scared He will be forced to taper. Nomura’s bear Bob Janjuah believes the “why” is fear. From his note last week: So for me, ‘tapering’ is going to happen. It will be gentle, it will be well telegraphed, and the key will be to avoid a major shock to the real economy. But the Fed is NOT going to taper because the economy is too strong or because we have [...] Moderate earthquake – Coquimbo, Chile on June 19, 2013 Magnitude : 4.1 Local Time (conversion only below land) : 2013-06-19 09:48:37 GMT/UTC Time : 2013-06-19 13:48:37 Depth (Hypocenter) : 50 km http://beforeitsnews.com/earthquakes/2013/06/moderate-earthquake-coquimbo-chile-on-june-19-2013-2463014.html Minor earthquake – France on June 19, 2013 Magnitude : 3 Local Time (conversion only below land) : 2013-06-19 16:04:34 GMT/UTC Time : 2013-06-19 14:04:34 Depth (Hypocenter) : 15 km http://beforeitsnews.com/earthquakes/2013/06/minor-earthquake-france-on-june-19-2013-2463012.html Moderate earthquake – Lumsden on June 19, 2013 Magnitude : 4.6 Local Time (conversion only below land) : 2013-06-20 02:10:24 GMT/UTC Time : 2013-06-19 14:10:24 Depth (Hypocenter) : 200 km http://beforeitsnews.com/earthquakes/2013/06/moderate-earthquake-lumsden-on-june-19-2013-2463010.html Minor earthquake – Puerto Rico Region [...] Conservative activists are planning to storm Capitol Hill on Wednesday for what they are predicting will be “the largest Tea Party protest since 2010.” The protest — drawing tea partiers like TV host Glenn Beck and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul — is in response to the Internal Revenue Service’s recent admission that it has been specifically targeting conservative groups for extra scrutiny. The gathering on the West Lawn of the Capitol is [...] Wolf Richter www.testosteronepit.com www.amazon.com/author/wolfrichter Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and his ilk refuse to see the connection. They’re too busy ogling inflation in the US that is suspiciously low. But China has its eyes riveted on the revolt in Brazil. Like all revolts, it’s about deep-seated issues and inequalities, but the spark that lit it – after price and asset inflation had made life too expensive for the middle class [...] Colorado’s Black Forest fire crews focus on clean up; cost to fight fire hits $8.5 million 509 homes lost in Colorado’s Black Forest Fire; 28 partially damaged; fire remains at 85% containment - @CBSDenver Colorado wildfire destroys more than 500 homes, new blazes menace West http://reut.rs/1bTw5wx Colorado wildfire snuffs over 500 homes; California fire a threat http://reut.rs/10v39eo Wildfire task force considering tougher limits for homeowners in burn zones http://huff.to/19N72i8 TRC Affiliate chaser, Eric Duncan, Streaming live [...] PBoC refused to inject liquidity into the market Short-term interbank lending rates surged 200 basis points to an all-time high of almost 8% on Wednesday after the PBoC refused to inject liquidity into the market. “The only explanation is that the central bank wants to send a warning signal to commercial banks and other credit issuers that unchecked credit expansion, particularly through the shadow banking system, will not be accommodated,” says CNC Asset [...] Kyle Bass covers three critical topics in this excellent in-depth interview before turning to a very wide-ranging and interesting Q&A session. The topics he focuses on are Central bank expansion (with a mind-numbing array of awe-full numbers to explain just where the $10 trillion of freshly created money has gone), Japan’s near-term outlook (“the next 18 months in Japan will redefine the economic orthodoxy of the West”), and most importantly since, [...] by GoldCore

Gold’s weakness continues and gold is now near the lowest level in four weeks, as a liquidity driven rally in stocks and investor caution over the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy is contributing [...] by Phoenix Capital Research The Fed will announce its moves today at 2PM. There’s really no telling what will happen. The markets have become truly schizophrenic. For instance, stocks continue to rally as though more QE is coming. However, Gold, which has lead stocks into every major Fed program, continues to fall… Moreover, Treasuries continue to fall, which indicates that less bond buying is coming… In simple terms, the markets are all over the place. Some [...]
http://usawatchdog.com/robert-wiedeme… - In his latest book, “The Aftershock Investor,” Bob Wiedemer says to get out of stocks and bonds. He predicts, “Between now and 2014, I think you’re going to fall out of bed. . . . Stock investors could take a very big hit—well over 50%.” Wiedemer calls gold “the once and future king” and goes on to predict “gold will go to $6,000 to $7,000 per ounce.” Join Greg [...] When a central bank like the Federal Reserve turns itself into a hedge fund, you know the lunatics have fully taken over the asylum. leverage is leveraged again. madness is the meme.

As we noted earlier today, the bus fare hike was merely the last straw in a long list of public grievances about the shaky Brazilian economy. But it’s worth noting that Sao Paulo’s bus riders are being majorly squeezed by fares. A fare price that sounds pretty minuscule in dollar [...] So I am guessing 78 million American adults and 12 million children will soon be forced into an obamacare treatment program, or face the consequences of an armed IRS agent looking to enforce a substantial fine~!!

Police also fired tear gas and used mace to disperse a crowd that had broken through a barrier around the stadium where the Brazilian national team plays this afternoon. Some of the protesters, who gathered to express their discontent over public spending on stadiums, [...] This may seem like something out of a science fiction movie: researchers have designed microparticles that can be injected directly into the bloodstream to quickly oxygenate your body, even if you can’t breathe anymore. It’s one of the best medical breakthroughs in recent years, and one that could save millions of lives every year. The invention, developed by a team at Boston Children’s Hospital, will allow medical teams to keep patients [...] Egypt appoints member of terror group that once massacred tourists to run tourism region It was only 16 years ago, in 1997, that members of an Egyptian militant group called Gamaa Islamiya stormed the ancient Temple of Hatshepsut in Luxor, a tourism magnet, and massacred 62 tourists before killing themselves, part of their insurgent campaign against the government. This week, Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi swore in Adel Mohamed al-Khayat, a former [...] Work on Guangzhou Metro Line 6 destroys five ancient tombs Guangzhou Metro is facing a public outcry after contractors destroyed a group of ancient imperial tombs in the Menggang district during construction of Line 6 of its subway system.

It Cost $6,000 More Than You Thought. According to a Congressional study, $6,000 is the average amount taxpayers are being dinged per employee. Walmart’s wages and benefits are so low, it forces workers to go on Medicaid and receive housing assistance, childcare subsidies, food stamps, and more. Yes, it’s totally insane, but it’s true. Just who owns Wal-Mart? 96% of the stuff you buy at Wal-Mart is Made [...] After a big sell-off in the bond market following the last time Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke made a public appearance (at his testimony before the Joint Economic Committee of Congress on May 22), most expect today’s FOMC monetary policy statement to strike a dovish tone and attempt to pare back some of the volatility that has appeared in financial markets.
The big concern, of course, is that the Federal Reserve will begin [...] Conspiracy Confirmed! TWA Flight 800 Whistleblowers Speak Out – NTSB Told Them To Lie We learn tonight that the crash of TWA Flight 800 off of the coast of New York back in 1996 was much more than we had been previously told as whistleblowers have come out stating that the NTSB told them to lie by placing gag orders on this entire episode of American history in another US government [...] “Does the FBI use drones for surveillance on US soil?” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked Mr. Mueller during an oversight hearing on Capitol Hill Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee. “Yes,” Mueller responded bluntly, adding that the FBI’s operation of drones is “very seldom.” http://rt.com/usa/fbi-director-mueller-drones-947/ FBI director tells Senate the bureau uses drones inside the US but rarely – @KellyO http://www.breakingnews.com/item/…./fbi-director-tells-senate-the-bureau-uses-drones-i FBI Agents Have Fatally Shot 70 ‘Subjects’ In The Past 20 Years And Deemed Every Single Incident Justified A month after the shooting death of Ibragim Todashev during an FBI interrogation about his connection to the Boston bombing suspects, we still don’t have a clear narrative of what happened.

Intelligence, military and politics have become industries, a way for rich people through their corporations to plunder the population and control the world. While supporters of the Senate immigration bill tout a new analysis that shows the legislation would boost the economy and trim the deficit, critics are seizing on another, less rosy stat — the average American wage would drop, and not recover for more than a decade. The analysis from the Congressional Budget Office projected that, if the Senate bill passes, the influx of new immigrants would have the effect of slightly [...] Several former Bank of America employees filed declarations in a federal court last week claiming the mortgage lender told them to lie to customers seeking loan modifications. Bank of America BAC -0.34% fired back, essentially calling them the liars. “Each of the declarations is rife with factual inaccuracies,” the bank responded in a statement emailed to media. Bank of America also attacked the credibility of the lawyers who gathered these declarations as [...] A Woman Virtually Nobody Has Heard Of Is On The Verge Of Becoming The Most Powerful Woman In The World t’s looking increasingly likely that Ben Bernanke will no longer be the Chairman of the Federal Reserve at this time next year.
