SUMMERS: The World Is Stuck In A Vicious Cycle
Former Harvard president and former Obama economic advisor Larry Summers writes in the FT today that the debate between fiscal hawks and doves has paralyzed the global economy.
He refers to it as a struggle between “orthodox” fiscal hawks versus “demand support” views.

“International economic dialogue has [...]

The global debt crisis has reached a dangerous new phase. Unfortunately, most Americans are not taking notice of it yet because most of the action is taking place overseas, and because U.S. financial markets are riding high. But just because the global economic crisis is unfolding at the pace of a “slow-motion train wreck” right now does not mean that it isn’t incredibly dangerous. As I have written about previously, [...]

The global debt crisis, of course, is nothing new.
Since the dawn of time, men have been lending other men money (or other things of value) and not getting them back.
But it’s only recently that the solution to this state of affairs has gotten so complicated that even PhD economists can’t figure it out.
In most situations in which people or companies can’t pay their debts, a simple thing happens.
It’s called “bankruptcy.”

As Western governments drown themselves in debt the demand for physical gold remains very robust.
Author: David Levenstein Posted: Tuesday , 22 Nov 2011
JOHANNESBURG -
Even though gold prices have not reacted as one would expect in light of the global debt crisis that continues to deteriorate, the demand for physical gold remains extremely robust. To me this is the lull before the storm and I believe that gold is building up for [...]
Gold did exactly as predicted in the update last weekend – it dropped back briefly to touch the bottom of our short-term reaction target range at $1680 before rebounding, as we can see on the 4-month chart below, and we were buyers around $1705 and below. The rebound on Tuesday left behind a clear bull hammer on the chart, which is positive. After the rebound gold advanced to the next [...]

Financial history teaches that market prices are not just subject to cyclical fluctuations — mainly following the business cycle. They are also liable to much longer lasting secular trends, often spanning 15 years, 20 years or longer. These secular cycles are visible in stocks, commodities, bonds and precious metals.

Interest-Rates / Global Debt Crisis
By: Martin_D_Weiss
Sadly, though, even while most Americans were enjoying the holiday or hitting the malls, much of Europe was sinking deeper into a new, more severe phase of its sovereign debt crisis.
This crisis is unfolding despite Herculean rescues by the European Union, the International Monetary Fund and the U.S. Federal Reserve.
It’s striking right now.
And it’s threatening to spread [...]
The Dow dropped 90% in nominal terms from 1929 to 1932. The US was close to highly disruptive social chaos and disorder at that point. 1,000 would be about a 95% fall. However, the financial sector is far more important today because of the vastly greater personal, corporate, and government debt than in 1930, so the consequences would likely be much greater.
