Eurozone finance minsters’ claim the banksters’ $80 Trillion shadow banking system will be shut down as the unlimited asset rehypothecation is a systemic risk in a financial crisis.
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 [...]

Just what is the Fed so scared of?
Today, the Fed’s favorite reporter, Jon Hilsenrath at the Wall Street Journal published an article completely refuting his own work from just two weeks ago.
If you’ll recall, two weeks ago, Hilsenrath wrote that the Fed was planning to taper its QE purchases before the end of the year.
Today, Hilsenrath wrote that when the Fed does taper its buying it won’t be “predictable.” [...]
One of the mainstream media journalists whose pursuit of the truth has been truly tenacious and nonpartisan is CBS News’ Sharyl Attkisson.

As we mentioned this week, Attkisson’s tough investigative journalism is starting to bother unnamed CBS News [...]

Apple is down 2%. The big gold ETF, GLD, is down 1.4%.
These moves are happening on a day when the market is basically flat. It’s not an accident that they’re diving together.
The reason is: During the immediate post-crisis era, gold and Apple were huge outperformers, that were uncorrelated to the day-to-day “risk on, risk off” regime that was dominating financial markets.
Remember, investors are desperate to find uncorrelated assets that don’t just [...]
