Despite a feeling of relative calm given by both the media and the American and Japanese financial markets going from record to record, the world economy is slowing down badly and a widespread recession is looming. The various players are fully aware of it and, in the face of the challenges of an imminent collapse, countries or regions are putting various strategies in place to try and limit the consequences.

After the deadline for this GEAB number last Saturday evening, our team has closely watched the unusual coincidence of all the market indicators’ collapsing: European, American and Asian stock exchanges, raw materials… and even and especially gold. Unfortunately we don’t have time to expand on this event but, anyway, we interpret it in line with everything we have written in this number. But where this number describes things [...]

It shouldn’t surprise. It’s already policy. Market analyst Graham Summers explained. Depositor theft is coming. Europe is banker occupied territory. So is America.
Finance is a new form of warfare. It’s more powerful than standing armies. Banking giants run things. Money power has final say.Ordinary people are impoverished. Even their bank accounts aren’t safe.
Cypriot officials agreed to tax them. Canada, New Zealand, and Euroland member states plan [...]

Well known economist and publisher of the Gloom, Boom and Doom Report, Doctor Marc Faber, raised eyebrows this morning when the long-time proponent of being your own central bank was quoted by Bloomberg as saying that the coming crisis will be so severe that you won’t even be able to hide in gold.
So we are creating bubbles and bubbles and bubbles. This bubble will come to an end. My concern [...]
CANADA INCLUDES BAIL-IN PROVISION FOR SYSTEMICALLY IMPORTANT BANKS IN 2013 BUDGET!
*BREAKING SD ALERT
Just as DieselBOOM accidentally admitted Monday, it appears that the Cypriot bail-in is anything but a one-off event, and is in fact the new collapse template for the entire Western banking system, and not just the ECB/ Eurozone!
SD has been alerted to an alarming provision that has been buried deep inside the official 2013 Canadian Budget.

Marc Faber, publisher of the Gloom, Boom & Doom report, appeared on “Bloomberg Surveillance” with Tom Keene and Alix Steel today, saying that he sees “considerable downside risk” for U.S. stocks and

Paul De Grauwe, a professor at the London School of Economics, told Tom Keene on “Bloomberg Surveillance” today that the euro area is at risk because “so many big mistakes have been made.”
De Grauwe went on to say that the “ineptitude of policy makers” allowed Cyprus to “degenerate into systemic crisis” and that European leaders should not allow Russia to take over gas in Cypriot waters as it would allow [...]

Until now the course of the crisis has been accurately described according to the five phases identified by our team from May 2006 (GEAB n°5) and completed in February 2009 (GEAB n°32): release, acceleration, impact, decanting and global geopolitical dislocation, the last two stages developing simultaneously. In the last issues and in particular the GEAB n°70 (December 2012), we commented extensively on the ongoing processes of the [...]

 ‘We Are In The Midst of The Keynesian Depression’
Five years have passed since the beginning of the Great Recession. Growth is slow, joblessness is elevated, and the knock-on effects continue to drag down the global economy. The panic in financial markets in 2008 that caused a systemic crisis and a sharp fall in asset values still weighs on markets around the world. The primary difference between today and the 1930s, when [...]
The good are being dragged down by the bad
by Alasdair Macleod, Peak Prosperity:
With the Eurozone having being displaced from the financial headlines by the American presidential election, you might have briefly thought that its problems had gone away. They haven’t.
It’s just that the public is expected to absorb one major story at a time. And now that the presidential election is done and dusted, Europe is rapidly returning to the headlines. [...]

For several months we have anticipated a major shock for the economy and global political stability for Autumn 2012. We are maintaining this “Red Alert” and will take stock mid-November 2012, at the same time as our annual analysis of the 2013 “risk-countries”, and on [...]

On Thursday last week, the US Federal Reserve announced QE 3: a program through which it will purchase $40 billion in Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) every month going forward.
Given the close proximity of this move to the European Central Bank’s (ECB) “unlimited” bond purchasing program announced the week before, the Fed’s move should be taken as a coordinated Central Bank intervention. Thus, we have both the ECB [...]
Marc Faber, publisher of the Gloom Boom & Doom Report, told Bloomberg Television’s Betty Liu on “In the Loop” today that “the fallacy of monetary policy in the U.S. is to believe this money will go to the man on the street. It won’t. It goes to the Mayfair economy of the well-to-do people and boosts asset prices of Warhols.
Faber said that he is “very happy. Very good for the [...]

Something like a ping-pong has developed between Prof. Yanis Varoufakis and myself (in his blog) where he argues that there is nothing which Greece can do on its own until the EZ-structure is changed and I invariably respond that there are a lot of things which Greece could/should do on its own while others should worry about the EZ-structure.
Prof. Varoufakis’ latest blogpost focuses on the very hypothetical question whether Germany would be [...]

The progression of world events unfolds in accordance with the anticipations mapped out by LEAP/E2020 during these last few quarters. Euroland has finally come out from its political torpor and short-termism since François Hollande’s election (1) as France’s president and the Greeks have just confirmed their willingness to resolve their problems within Euroland (2) thus contradicting all the Anglo-Saxon media and Euro sceptics’ “forecasts”. From now on, Euroland (in fact [...]

Capitalists have been gripped by ‘systemic fear’ making them worry not about the day-to-day movements of growth, employment, and profit, but about ‘losing their grip’. An interesting recent article by the Real-World Economics Review on the Asymptotes of Power focuses on the fact that the capitalists are forced to realize that their system may not be eternal, and that it may not survive in its current form. The authors fear [...]

Talk of QE and rumors of coming Central Bank Intervention pushed stocks and Gold higher on Monday. It’s odd to hear these rumors when every major Central Bank has in fact been clearly stating NO new stimulus is coming any time soon.
Indeed, as the Fed has proved now for eight consecutive FOMC meetings, it is not going to announce more QE unless another systemic Crisis erupts. Instead [...]
In a brief clip from a lengthier discussion between historian Niall Ferguson and ex-Greek PM George Papandreou at this week’s Zeitgeist conference, the effusive Englishman lays out perfectly what many are missing with regard to Europe: “Greece is not the problem – it is a symptom of a much more profound malaise that affects the entire monetary union.” – just as Lehman Brothers was not the ’cause’ of the US’s problems. The wasted energy [...]

Welcome to Capital Account. Bloomberg reports investors are worried JP Morgan is planning to pull back in the European mortgage bond market in the wake of the CIO disaster, causing significant volatility. JP Morgan is the biggest buyer of European home-loan bonds. Is this just one of many examples of how JP Morgan’s reckless 2 billion dollar trading loss may be felt most by [...]

Whilst waiting for Euroland to equip itself, by the end of 2012, with a medium to long term common political, economic and social project, especially following the election of the new French president François Hollande, anticipated many months ago by LEAP/E2020, players will remain prisoners of the short-term reflexes related to the sudden Greek political tremors, the uncertainties over Euroland governance and to the risks in public debts.
At the same [...]
Just as LEAP/E2020 has been anticipating since November 2010 (GEAB N°49), the Socialist candidate (1), in this case François Hollande, will win the 2012 French presidential election (2). There is still the question relating to the first round of this election: will Nicolas Sarkozy, the outgoing president, come out ahead or behind Marine Le Pen (it was also part of our November 2010 anticipation) (3)? Therefore, it’s time to anticipate [...]

Starting back in August, I began suggesting that we were approaching a Systemic Crisis/ Crash scenario in the markets.
The technical and fundamentals both supported this forecast, but I completely underestimated the degree to which the Central Banks and EU would attempt to prop up the market.
At that time, I thought it likely we’d see a Crash, which would then be met with another round of stimulus, which would [...]
