Footprints of a Stock Market Crash / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Magnus_Ekervik
Asset markets around the world have been propelled higher from fiscal stimulus packages, record low interest rates and money printing. This type of government action can push markets higher in the short term, but to create long term growth bank lending has to increase along with rising consumption and job creation, none of which has happened. Actually bank lending is still contracting, unemployment is rising and consumption is in decline.

Goldman Sachs Betting on Derivatives Collapse Sparked Financial Crash? / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Graham_Summers
Earlier this month, I detailed 25 US commercial banks that had trillions (with a “T”) of dollars’ worth of exposure to derivatives on their balance sheets. At the time, I stated that even if 4% of the notional value of these derivatives was “at risk” and only 10% of that 4% went bad, that you would wipe out the total equity at the five large US banks.

Global Leveraged Speculation Upsurge, Financial Crisis Not Over / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Bob_Chapman
Almost all the excessive hedge fund de-leveraging is over. Banks have continued to hold 40 to 1 leveraged positions, because they cannot exit them without a major economic recovery without going bankrupt. Our government remains trapped in the same old bubble mentality in its activist control banking and policymaking having issued $1.9 trillion in additional debt over the past year. Banks and government still do not see the warning signals. Any sane businessman who views the continued leverage being used by Fannie, Freddie, Ginnie and the FHA has to cringe in horror, as leverage increases daily without end.

Black Tuesday Stock Market Crash Anniversary and a Return to Big Government / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Mike_Whitney
October 29, marks the 80th anniversary of the Stock Market Crash of 1929, the event which most historians point to as the beginning of the Great Depression. On Black Tuesday, traders dumped 16 million shares in one day sending the markets into freefall. In the months that followed, stocks rallied--sometimes for long periods at a time--but the underlying economy continued to deteriorate as consumers curtailed spending and cut back sharply on credit. As a result, hundreds of banks were shuddered, thousands of businesses failed, and unemployment soared to 25 percent. Public confidence plunged and the economy slipped into a decade-long slump. Tariffs were thrown up, international trade slowed to a crawl, and shanty towns began to sprout up across the country.

By: DeepCaster_LLC
The Litany of Negatives which, some days, seems to overwhelm honest observers of the Economy and Markets, should be counterbalanced by consideration of certain Positive Realities.
While these Positive Realities will likely not endure for more than a few months, or a very few years, their existence now can be used to enhance gains and protect against future adversities.

Deepening Financial Crisis As Stock Market Heads for a Crash / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Bob_Chapman
Our view is that the elitists are currently buying time for the dollar, and stalling the rally in precious metals, by weakening other currencies until they are ready for the big stock takedown/correction. This process of supporting the dollar is becoming extremely expensive and difficult, so they had to take the Dow down 200 points on Thursday to start some stock contagion in Asia and Europe to flush some money into dollars and treasuries.
