April 30, 2013 – MINNESOTA – April has been a freakishly cold month across much of the northern USA, bringing misery to millions of sun-starved and winter-weary residents from the Rockies to the Midwest. “The weather map … looks like something out of The Twilight Zone,” Minneapolis meteorologist Paul Douglas of WeatherNation TV wrote on his blog last week. Record cold and snow has been reported in dozens of cities, with the worst of [...]

Fed Ex sending a signal to “Exit” the markets ? CLICK ON CHART TO ENLARGE Federal Express has been a good leading indicator for the S&P 500 over the past 10 YEARS! Back in 2002, FDX created higher lows and the SPY followed. In 2006/2007 FDX created lower highs and the SPY followed it down. Now Fed Ex could be sending [...] First it was thousands of dead pigs floating in the Shanghai water supply (at last estimate over 16,000), then a thousand dead ducks were pulled from a river in the Sichuan province, and now, pushing the meme beyond even its most grotesque boundaries, we learn that five black swans were found floating lifeless on the pond of Anhui University’s old campus in Hefei, traditionally inhabited by a bevy of black swans. From Danwei: “The [...] This is twilight zone material, people: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=AfScPPysADQ People who were ‘shot dead’ at Gifford shooting are showing up alive and related to the Sandy Hook shooting… Nick Phelps… Michael Greenburg…
If global economy is going to get slower, would investors be willing to take on more risk?
Morgan Stanley’s Joachim Fels: ’We have a global economy that has entered what I call the twilight zone’ Services industries from Asia to Europe cooled last month after the euro-area debt crisis pulled economies including Spain and Italy into recession and damped global growth prospects. The purchasing managers’ index fell to 53.7 in September from 56.3 in [...] Sept. 18 (Bloomberg) — The world economy is sliding into a “twilight zone,” trapped between outright expansion and renewed recession.
“It could go either way,” said Joachim Fels, chief economist at Morgan Stanley in London, who coined the description in an Aug. 15 report. “It doesn’t take much to tip us into a global recession.” The quandary is forcing central banks back to the fore, with the Federal Reserve last week embarking upon a [...] From Bloomberg: European Central Bank President Mario Draghi may wait until Germany’s Constitutional Courtrules on the legality of Europe’s permanent bailout fund before unveiling full details of his plan to buy government bonds, two central bank officials said. With the court set to rule on Sept. 12, investors looking for Draghi to announce a definitive purchase program at his Sept. 6 press conference might be disappointed, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the [...] https://twitter.com/zerohedge/status/238980359440695296 The market was just starting to digest the schizophrenic Durable Goods data when chatter broke of the German FINMIN discussing a ‘temporary’ GRExit. In other words, just like Mario Draghi could transmogrify the twilight zone into reality during Merkel’s vacation, and spread unfounded rumors that Europe is fine, now that the Chancellor has returned, the rumors take on the other side of the equation, and the mice no longer can [...] Morgan Stanley’s Joachim Fels and the rest of the The Global Macro Analyst team have cut their global growth forecast in a note dramatically titled Into The Twilight Zone.
The gist is that everyone in the world is struggling right now. Emerging markets, which used to keep growing solidly during times of slowdown, are sputtering. And developed markets keep shooting themselves in the foot. The global economy has sunk deeper into the twilight [...] The rate announcement is not the surprise: virtually nobody expected a cut which would have taken the deposit facility to a negative rate and the monetary Twilight Zone. Where the surprise will come is what Draghi announces at the press conference in 45 minutes time which we will livestream when it starts. From the ECB: “2 August 2012 – Monetary policy decisions At today’s meeting the Governing Council of the ECB decided that the [...] Europe’s game of chicken, all of which is geared to one simple thing – to spook the Greeks into voting for pro-bailout powers, and against Syriza – has now officially entered the Twilight Zone. In the latest episode of what can now simply be described as the world’s most entertaining yet terrifying mutual assured destruction showdown, because should Greece leave, the destruction, at least in the short-term, will impact both Europe and [...] Twilight Zone Day
If it’s a holiday weekend and you’ve turned on the Sy-Fy channel after basking in the sun and eating too much picnic food, don’t be surprised when you find out you’ve entered “The Twilight Zone.” Like clockwork, the Sy-Fy Channel runs a marathon of the award-winning Rod Serling show at least three times a year. Serling created, wrote and narrated the off-kilter black-and-white anthology show.

Today Michael Pento told King World News precisely when he expects the next round of quantitative easing to be announced and how much the price of gold will spike. For KWN readers globally, according to Bloomberg News, Michael Pento has correctly predicted the annual high prices of gold for the last three years in a row. Pento, who founded Pento Portfolio Strategies, also gave this extraordinary account of previous rounds [...] If Ron Paul’s foreign policy positions are out of the Twilight Zone, why does Paul get the most support from the U.S. military? Paul Joseph Watson John Huntsman’s futile effort to steal Ron Paul’s voters has manifested itself in the form of a badly produced ad which characterizes Ron Paul’s beliefs, most notably his foreign policy stance, as being out of the Twilight Zone – a strange claim to [...] Twilight Zone: USA Today Story About Ron Paul Leading In Iowa Headlined ‘Ron Paul Still Not in Lead’“Mainstream Republicans” decide who is leading, not actual polls of likely voters Paul Joseph Watson If you thought the establishment’s tactic of ignoring who wins the Iowa primary was bizarre enough, try this one on for size. A USA Today story about how polls show Ron Paul is leading in Iowa is entitled ‘Ron Paul still not in lead’. The mental gymnastics required to unravel this convoluted premise [...] Allegedly Held Captive by Police, Brooklyn Woman Sues By Samuel Newhouse COURT STREET — A Brooklyn woman who was shot in the leg and then detained for five days by NYPD officers who demanded that she confess her shooter’s identity is now suing the city. Takesha Griffin, 35, of Brownsville, announced Thursday with her attorney Sanford Rubenstein that she plans to sue the city for $5 million for her ordeal, during [...] Saman Monhammadi Barack Obama is a clever liar, more clever than George W. Bush. On Saturday, Obama said: “The drawdown in Iraq allowed us to refocus on Afghanistan and achieve major victories against al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.” President Obama deserves big props for his overall performance as a puppet and especially for this new lie. It is very clever and funny. Those who know the truth are entertained, [...] by D. Sherman Okst of Financial Sense Tossing the Consumer Under the Bus…And insanely expecting an economic recovery I’ve been pouring through the Fed Reserve’s recent release of circa 2005 FOMC meeting transcripts. The most striking observation that one can make is that the consumer – the very lifeblood that determines whether our economy will live or die – has been discarded. Discarded — as in tossed under [...] by bitter clinger I cannot figure out if I am in the Twilight Zone, an Episode of the Sporanos, or if I have fallen through the looking glass with Alice in Wonderland. If there were any justice in the world, a modern day Elliot Ness would be arresting the bankers, brokers and politicians and we would be reading about the largest corruption case in the history of the world. Bernie Maddoff [...] Will any legitimate news organization report on this? Even most Americans can understand this type of data. As of yesterday I am 100% out of equities now and forever…. 7 figure withdrawal… I’m tired of this BS ponzi game and being lied too… from ZH: The UMichigan consumer confidence index dropped from from 76, the best number since January 2008, to 66.5, the lowest since August 2009, on expectation of 74.5. The [...] 1984, by George Orwell, published in 1949, is a dystopian novel about the totalitarian regime of the Party, an oligarchical collectivist society where life is a world of perpetual war, pervasive government surveillance, public mind control, and the voiding of citizens’ rights. Winston Smith is a civil servant responsible for perpetuating the Party’s propaganda by revising historical records to render the Party omniscient and always correct, yet his meager existence disillusions [...] |
