Why the banksters don't lend to business.
All business new and old is becoming less profitable.
Pronouncements on the importance of growth is a form of madness - denial.
Banksters can get a guaranteed income just by holding the money given to them by governments and placing it in government vehicles for cash.

Why this is not the 1970sThe risk of devaluation (bank holiday) was mentioned by Eric Sprott a couple of days ago.
I concur: devaluation is another version of inflation / deflation both reduce purchasing ability by reducing how much 'real' money is available - purchasing value.
The most pressing risk for an individual IMHO is to get caught with money in the bank only to find it is then worth a fraction of past value "e Brutto"http://www.blogger.com/profile/14926599399841605799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556955156577459336.post-3161091223272589552011-11-14T10:52:00.000-08:002011-11-14T18:33:11.681-08:00Barefoot Ted's Luna sandals one year of wear, autumn rigMostly running with some cycling and walking, replacement lace on right foot recently another month or so on the left.Socks are merino / nylon / lycra mix from:http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/marko200810/ £6.50 for 4 pairs, they don't have the advertised extra cushioning, still they do the job - I plan on two pairs as the season progresses, good service from the seller.Get some darning thread and a "e Brutto"http://www.blogger.com/profile/14926599399841605799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556955156577459336.post-78669340608053320662011-11-05T17:16:00.000-07:002011-11-10T06:31:21.628-08:00Disfunctional regulation of world 'markets''We apologize for any confusion our initial advisory may have created.'Today the idiots that are purposely put in charge of regulating the 'markets' i.e. they are brain dead placemen 'clarify' that the statement issued yesterday was exactly opposite of what they intend to do...Perhaps they didn't sleep well on Thursday night because their mothers didn't tuck them in.They are relaxing margin "e Brutto"http://www.blogger.com/profile/14926599399841605799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556955156577459336.post-72971719905897283652011-11-05T08:00:00.000-07:002011-11-07T08:35:27.948-08:00Monday, Monday...This is a liquidity crisis caused by an insolvency crisis, banks and corporations have parked cash in US treasuries due to systemic risk and due to systemic risk the futures exchange (CME) is raising liquidity requirements.If your friend is still playing the market he needs to put in sell orders now to get them in the queue.The futures exchange in the USA is asking for 26% increase in money "e Brutto"http://www.blogger.com/profile/14926599399841605799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556955156577459336.post-70576085968944098542011-08-31T14:31:00.000-07:002011-08-31T15:10:13.525-07:00Decline of GDP per capita should cause deflation
Deflation can not occur in the Anglo zone because unlike the Japanese we are happy to let foreigners own our debt.
Japan does have deflation because it has retained sovereignty over its money supply by buying all its own debt.
More than 50% of the US debt is owned by foreigners in this circumstance reducing the money supply would mean exporting deflation to another country.

Under the fractional reserve system of fiat (paper) currency debt being serviced is used to calculate the multiple of real capital that can be carried by the market.
(Because the total amount of Anglo zone debt has now passed the point at which it could be paid back I am leaving aside the consideration of the algorithm itself - it no longer matters.)
