“Inflation is the number one threat to the US economy? Ask the mainstream experts, and this statement is in no way a fabrication of the truth; it is truth itself.”
In the U.S., this is but stage two of the depression. As you may recall, stage one was where smart people bet against the mortgage system and won. Thier winnings were huge and is better known as Asset Default Swap, while in reality it is Legalized Gambling permitted by the recision of Glass-Steagall act (Clinton 1999).Enter Stage two; Foreclosures brought about by eroded values to loan, abandonment and lost wages/jobs. Upon these losses, smart people brought the world to its knees. At the moment, “Sales of existing homes are up! Prices have stabilized but we are very near the bottom” are statements heard everywhere. The truth here is that foreclosed homes are being sold out as was to be expected. Since the price of the majority of these units is far below market, they are responsible for bringing down the average price. Job losses continue and we are in for the long haul before they return.
Stage three is yet to come, but it will be quiet. Delaying foreclosure activity had the net result of permitting ‘closings’ till late FY09, thus reports for losses on these transactions won’t appear until the end of FY10, but they will appear nonetheless. These losses will result in lower earnings and write-offs which will reduce tax revenues (if there was any due anyway for the insiders for making these deals) and ultimately require additional taxes to bolster all the expenses and costs incurred by this horrible administration.
Stage four will follow the flurry of tax revolts and come pending the outcome of the 2010 midterm election. I’ll leave that to the voters who should all be awake.
Market Myths Exposed: Inflation Is Not A Threat, Deflation Is
Most people are confident they can recognize a myth when they hear one: Wearing a hat causes baldness; eating a bunch of carrots gives you perfect vision; ‘light’ cigarettes are better for your health than the regular kind.But what about this sentence: Inflation is the number one threat to the US economy? Ask the mainstream experts, and this statement is in no way a fabrication of the truth; it is truth itself. Case in point, this recent insight from a reputable news source:
“Given the extraordinary amounts of government spending, we believe inflation is likely to rear its ugly head.” (CNBC)It looks reliable. It sounds reliable. But the reality is different. That fact is the subject of Chapter Three in Club EWI’s free educational eBook , aptly titled “Myth No. 3: Worry About Inflation Rather Than Deflation.”
With groundbreaking insight from EWI’s president Bob Prechter, this chapter reveals how the most vital financial players have been led right up to the water of easy money. Yet, like the saying goes, no amount of incentive — be it record low interest rates or trillions of dollars in federal bailouts — has gotten them to “drink.” Here, the chapter sheds light on this global leverage fast:
- Banks: The premier dispensers of credit are about “95% invested in mortgages,” which can fall in dollar value at the start of a crisis. Also, a chart of Credit Standards At All Banks since 1997 reveals a new trend of tighter lending criterion. Both are deflationary.
- Consumers: The premier devourers of credit are paying off their balances. See: chart of Total Consumer Credit (Annual Rate of Change) since 2000. This is deflationary.
- Private Equity: “Of the ten largest leveraged buyout deals since 2007, four have defaulted and two are in distress. Just in this small group, there is nearly one-half a trillion dollars worth of loans headed for the dump.”
- Small Businesses are self-liquidating; meaning, they create profits to pay back loans versus consumers. YET, “Market Myths” Chart of Bank Loan Availability to these small Enterprises contains a big, black arrow pointing DOWN. This is deflationary.
- Home owners: Real estate values continue to fall, foreclosures continue to soar. Mortgage delinquencies are rising, and more and more people are walking away from their properties. All of these conditions are deflationary.
Believe it or not, this is just the beginning. In all, throws light on the TEN most common financial misconceptions via excerpts and charts from EWI’s most popular editorial material of the last decade. Such as:
- Myth No. 1: Earnings Drive Stock Prices
- Myth No. 5: To Do Well In Investing, You Have To Diversify
- Myth No. 8: Bubbles Can Unwind Slowly
