Yet another development today in the case of James Rosen, the Fox News reporter who was monitored by the Justice Dept. after receiving classified information from a State Department security adviser.
According to The New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza, the Obama administration fought to keep the search warrant for Rosen’s private e-mail account secret on the grounds that they might need to monitor the account for a long period of time.

Remember: Japan was using almost 25% of their tax revenue to service their national debt before this spike started. They are in a debt trap and the noose is tightening. Rapidly.

The main development in the foreign exchange market over the past week has been the short squeeze of the yen, and to a lesser extent, the Swiss franc.
The move coincided with a backing up in JGB yields, with the 10-year approaching the 1.0% threshold, a nearly three-fold increase since the BOJ announced its more aggressive monetary stance in early April. The Nikkei took it on the chin, falling 12.5% between [...]
Google is developing plans to build its own wireless network in emerging markets, Amir Efrati at The Wall Street Journal reports.
Google has developed its own wireless technology, which it hopes to deploy with local companies in Southeast Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa. Efrati says Google plans to provide wireless access to a billion people who are currently without Internet.
Google wants to use airwaves previously reserved for TV companies for its network. It’s [...]
In yet another showing of their lack of concern towards the people who give them their jobs, Senators in Washington D.C. voted against a key GMO labeling amendment to the Farm bill. One that would have allowed states to decide to label the presence of genetically modified ingredients in food products.
They didn’t just vote it down, they did it overwhelmingly: 71 to 27. Let’s be clear—this wasn’t a bill that would have mandated the [...]

We cannot control the markets, but we can control how to respond to what they are saying. The paper market has been turned into a circus, thanks to JP Morgan, and abetted by the exchanges, COMEX and LME. Focus has to remain on the physical market, for it is where one can expect to find true value for price. What everyone has learned is that as price has declined, [...]
As Americans prepare for Memorial Day—the official kickoff to a summer grilling season of burgers and T-bones—rising beef prices have some consumers balking in the grocery aisles.
Retail beef prices are widely expected to set new records in coming weeks after wholesale prices, or the amount meatpackers charge sellers for beef, hit an all-time peak this past week.
After achieving new highs for three weeks, choice-grade beef, the most common variety in [...]
Hungary has taken a bold stand against biotech giant Monsanto and genetic modification by destroying 1000 acres of maize found to have been grown with genetically modified seeds, according to Hungary deputy state secretary of the Ministry of Rural Development Lajos Bognar. Unlike many European Union countries, Hungary is a nation where genetically modified (GM) seeds are banned. In a similar stance against GM ingredients, Peru has also passed a [...]

Some common sense discussion is taking place in Spain regarding the necessity of Spain exiting the eurozone.
For example, please consider Opposition to the euro breaks: first manifesto to leave the single currency as translated from El Economista.
The political opposition that Spain remains part of the euro begins to crystallize. And the tool to achieve that end-Spain output of the single currency is again signing a manifest public that, for the moment, [...]

Yesterday was a doozy, wasn’t it? Where to start?
The Aussie dollar fell below 97 cents. The ASX200 fell more than 100 points, or around 2%. The Nikkei collapsed over 7%, after starting the day rallying mindlessly. The index experienced a 1,000+ trading range. We also heard that China’s manufacturing sector tipped back into recession, and that Ford won’t be making cars in Australia any more.

The financial institution that came to epitomize the “too big to fail” concept should have been left to its own economic destruction during the days of the Great Recession it helped to cause back in 2008-09, because had it been allowed to go under, its criminal behavior would have ended then.
But as it was, the taxpayer bailout of the financial giant JPMorgan did not “teach” it’s [...]

Greece’s infamous new drug, sisa, is basically meth and filler ingredients like battery acid, engine oil, shampoo, and cooking salt. The majority of its users are poor, often homeless, city dwellers reeling from the psychological and physical impacts of a country in the grip of economic collapse.

A member of the Greek parliament from the far right party Golden Dawn has urged desperate people in the country to “kill those who are responsible for their problems” rather than commit suicide. He defines “those who are responsible” as bankers.
Ilias Panagiotaros made the comments during an interview for the Dateline show broadcast by Australian network SBC.
“Golden Dawn aspires to become like Hezbollah as a second government for the benefit [...]
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) said Friday that the “Gang of Eight” immigration bill doesn’t have enough votes to pass the Senate.
The bill won approval from the Senate Judiciary Committee in a 13-5 vote, but Menendez said it lacks the 60 votes necessary to clear the Senate — despite the bill’s four Republican co-sponsors.
“We don’t currently have 60 votes identified in the Senate,” Menendez said in an interview with Univision. “We [...]

MANILA (AFP) – The Philippines vowed Thursday to fight China “to the last man standing”, as a Chinese warship patrolled around a remote reef occupied by a handful of Filipino marines in disputed waters.
In the latest flare-up over competing claims to parts of the South China Sea, the Philippines this week denounced the “provocative and illegal presence” of the warship and a fleet of Chinese fishing vessels near Second Thomas [...]

STANFORD, Calif. – The evidence is overwhelming: Humanity is pushing humanity’s life-support systems rapidly toward a tipping point that will likely imperil society’s well-being.
Human quality of life will suffer substantial degradation by the year 2050 if we continue on our current path.
A statement released today and signed by more than 500 scientists from 44 countries who study the interactions of people with our planet is unequivocal: “Based on the best [...]
Five ninth-grade young women from Denmark recently created a science experiment that is causing a stir in the scientific community.
It started with an observation and a question. The girls noticed that if they slept with their mobile phones near their heads at night, they often had difficulty concentrating at school the next day. They wanted to test the effect of a cellphone’s radiation on humans, but their school, Hjallerup School in [...]

Dividend growth stocks offer investors a compounding effect beyond any other type of investment. There are not just one, not just two [...]
“Central bankers claim that they aren’t starting a currency war,” wrote market expert Ed Yardeni. “They deny that their policies are aimed at the competitive devaluation of their currencies. Let’s call it competitive ultra-easing.”
The Federal Reserve has famously been keeping rates low since the financial crisis. In recent months, the Bank of Japan has made stunning calls to devalue its own currency.
In recent weeks, many of the world’s other central banks have been cutting rates [...]
Richard Russell on May 17, 2013:
“The CPI is manipulated, and I believe gold is being manipulated as well. The Fed’s QE4ever is inflating everything — school tuition, haircuts, food, gas, insurance, medicine. They’ve already “rearranged” the CPI, so what’s left for them to do to keep us from knowing about inflation? Oh yes, it’s gold, so c’mon, Bernanke, keep the lid on gold. Slam it in after-market trading in the thin [...]
As the market panic demonstrates, central banks are stuck on a treadmill of money printing
Oh what a tangled web central bankers weave when they practice to deceive… Last night’s panic in Tokyo, where the Nikkei dropped a stomach churning 7 per cent, demonstrates just how difficult it’s going to be for the world’s central banks to exit their loose money policies.
It’s not even as if Ben Bernanke, chairman of the [...]
