Lord Turner Fights to Save the Incompetent FSA Banking System Regulator / Politics / Market Regulation

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleLord Turner, the ex-banker head of the FSA banking system regulator that repeatedly failed to regulate the UK banking sector over the boom and bust years that resulted in a near catastrophic collapse of the UK banking system requiring the tax payer to underwrite the whole banking system to the tune of £1.5 trillion and counting, today stepped forward with strong words criticising the financial sector as well as calling on for a new tax on transactions to prevent bonus abuse that allowed bank executives and boards to turn the institutions they worked for into hollow shells, after having banked billions in bonuses on fictitious mark to market profits.

Global Fresh Water Crisis, Peak Water / Politics / Water Sector

By: James_Quinn

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“It should be obvious from simple arithmetic that population growth is on a direct collision course with increasingly scarce resources.”
Jeremy Grantham

The notion of peak water probably sounds crazy to most people. The earth is 70% covered by water. The water cycle replenishes water on a continuous basis. The global warming enthusiasts tell us that glaciers are melting and oceans are rising. This should make water more plentiful.

The Buzz over Bernanke Reappointment as Fed Chairman / Politics / Central Banks

By: Michael_Pento

Last week’s buzz in Jackson Hole Wyoming and around Wall Street is whether or not Banana Ben Bernanke should be reappointed to the Fed Chair. CNBC also held a panel discussing this issue with Bob McTeer (former President of the Dallas Fed). The consensus was that it was ridiculous not to have Barack Obama indicate he would serve another term as soon as possible. The agreed upon reason being that no one could do a better job than he has done.

Obama's Foreign Policy: The End of the Beginning / Politics / GeoPolitics

By: STRATFOR

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs August draws to a close, so does the first phase of the Obama presidency. The first months of any U.S. presidency are spent filling key positions and learning the levers of foreign and national security policy. There are also the first rounds of visits with foreign leaders and the first tentative forays into foreign policy. The first summer sees the leaders of the Northern Hemisphere take their annual vacations, and barring a crisis or war, little happens in the foreign policy arena. Then September comes and the world gets back in motion, and the first phase of the president’s foreign policy ends. The president is no longer thinking about what sort of foreign policy he will have; he now has a foreign policy that he is carrying out.

So-called Populist Revolt Against the Obama Health Care Proposals Stinks / Politics / Healthcare Sector

By: Richard_C_Cook

Is anyone more than a little curious about where the so-called “populist revolt” against the Obama administration’s health care proposals is coming from and who is paying for it? You know, the revolt where people scream and disrupt town hall meetings, brandish guns outside in the street, and label a public option that would help some of the 47 million without health insurance get treatment as “socialist”?

Why the Federal Reserve Bank Must Die / Politics / Central Banks

By: James_Quinn

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis Article“Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value ---- zero.” – Voltaire

“The Federal Reserve in collaboration with the giant banks has created the greatest financial crisis the world has ever seen. The foolish notion that unlimited amounts of money and credit created out of thin air can provide sustainable economic growth has delivered this crisis to us. Instead of economic growth and stable prices, (The Fed) has given us a system of government and finance that now threatens the world financial and political institutions. Pursuing the same policy of excessive spending, debt expansion and monetary inflation can only compound the problems that prevent the required corrections. Doubling the money supply didn’t work, quadrupling it won’t work either.  Buying up the bad debt of privileged institutions and dumping worthless assets on the American people is morally wrong and economically futile. Representative from Texas Ron Paul questioning Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke

Who Will Inherit Your Money When You Die? / Politics / Pensions & Retirement

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGary North writes: "Tell me what country I will die in. I will never go there."

Men do not like to think about their inheritance. That's because of the word "die." This is why they delay writing a will. A will is like a road map to the border of the final country. "I will never go there."

SEC On Track To Adopt IVS: By-passing FASB, BIS, Congress And The Treasury? / Politics / Market Regulation

Tyler Durden can always be counted on to be first off the block with a juicy bit of news, so it was no surprise that he broke the story about SEC's recent effort to re-start the job that they apparently abandoned some-time in mid 2000, namely protecting investors who put their money into entities they regulate from fraud (http://seekingalpha.com/article/157053-sec-to-demand-loan-loss-clarity-in-md-a-disclosure).
