“The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.” [Bob Marley]. Take note Hancock et al!
As I noted some time ago BlackRock joined Vanguard in backing away from ESG. The guys at the top have changed course, but the guys in the middle and ends haven't fully embraced the changes.
Stupid banks really ought to fail and a few ought to suffer a bit getting skimmed by a 15% hit. But the Fed clearly wants to avoid a hint of a haircut. Don't know if that can be sustained. Meanwhile inflation (devaluation) hits the public with much more than a 15% haircut over time. It's the only way to amortize the debt, sadly. Those with decent investments won't be as badly hurt as pensioners with a fixed dole that won't follow the devaluation as closely. OTOH, a lot of zombie companies will fade away.
Don't know about the next pandemic, but the mandatory stuff will face huge public opposition. We were lied to and many are much more aware of the lies and the harms they saw for themselves. It has reached the 60% almost and we know that some 30% remain stuck in the nominal 1/3 ratios we always find. The point is that we passed the 50% mark of public opinion.
Geriatric leaders or HPD leaders? They need to be allowed to retire on their winnings. Wonder if they will?
Thanks HH - I agree, I guess it's all about confidence in banking and this has been rocked with no certainty where to next. The Fed is in a Catch 22 and regardless of the next move up or down I believe that nature will take its course as all complex systems do. Our puny human interventions solve nothing and more often than not make things worse. So I agree, zombies have to fail for they are empty vessels keep afloat by hype which evaporates on contact with reality.
Leaders rarely forsake their grip on power voluntarily, even those that have like Blair and ex-PMs here and Obama, they go underground and drive the truck incognito. I imagined that a vigilante group of ex-military assassins would have formed by now, funded by a billionaire 'SMERSH' character - perhaps it hasn't got bad enough yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cU5Ssh52PGg
The difference between the old WASP oligarchy and this new one is the former never exhibited this kind of mass depravity or promoted degeneracy on this scale. We are in uncharted territory--a society with a predatory elite that normalizes every kind of depravity and attacks our society at its roots. It's not gonna end well.
.... Is the early sign of a country's decline when its roads fall into disrepair? ....
Well, there are more than 1,000 train derailments in the Dis-United States of America every year.
That doesn't prevent the demented kleptocrat in "charge ?" to send $120 billion to Bandera Reich.
It's a disease spread by the empire of lies to its allies (vassals?).
“The European Union has completely lost its political sovereignty, and its bureaucratic elites are dancing to someone else’s tune, accepting whatever they are told from above, causing harm to their own population and their own economy,” -- V. Putin
He's right of course 'N' which is why the Brits moved away from the EU - the people know but the bureaucrats, Establishment etc will carry on fighting to get back in and continue to scupper any efforts to make Brexit work.
Take illegal immigration/invasion - HMG could stop it a heartbeat but there is no will illustrated by Andrew Bridgen's address on the Vaxx to Parliament the other week (6 MPs!). They appear to not care - but actually they are instructed. They are all puppets as we know. And most have figured it out anyway: https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/vaccinations
Actually, Europeans could have known why they're being invaded a long time ago.
The culprit is hidden in plain sight. Any country that hosts a George Soros NGO is in BIG TROUBLE. He's the god of Open Society and is the one paying politicians (Democrats in the US and "allies" in Europe) and judges in the US and Europe to close their eyes on the invasion - these are planned invasions by the global predators. Even what they call legal immigration is not what you think.
George Soros paid CastruDoh to import 'legally' 400,000 per year starting in 2021/2022 for a country that has a population of 38 million.
Can anybody really believe that Kanadastan can integrate 400,000 new immigrants per year when the real unemployment is ALWAYS > 15%. Please ignore any unemployment stats coming out of North America - they're FAKE. I am a foot soldier and know what's going on.
All Color revolutions in Georgia, Bandera Reich, Khazakstan, Belarus, Hungary (kicked them out), Serbia, etc... have the footprints of George Soros. The CIA works hand in hand with USAID, Open Society NGOs, State Department and the DOD to create the misery you see around the globe.
Look at the case of Covid-19 research stakeholders in Bandera Reich below:
The Shanghai International Petroleum and Natural Gas Exchange was created in 2018. But the first LNG Trade in Yuan started only this week and involved around 65,000 tons of LNG imported from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Guess who was the buyer? That's what makes it even more historic.
The buyer of this gas was FRANCE! The Little Napoleon who was printing Euros out of thin air to buy Russian energy in 2021 is now buying UAE gas in Yuhan in 2023!
By trading their energy in Yuhan, the UAE can turn the revenue into gold since the Yuan is backed by gold. The Euro/USD is backed by ether!.
Last year: "Zoltan Pozsar, global head of short-term interest strategy at Credit Suisse, published an article titled “Money, Commodities, and Bretton Woods III.” In it, Pozsar considers a new world order that he believes will mark the third decade of this century and perhaps even longer."
De-dollarization accelerates in Asia. I bet Blackrock and Vanguard have noticed where the world is going. The New World Order is no longer the one they had in mind, but the one being defined by the Global South.
India set to reduce use of US dollar in cross-border trade:
The rating agencies are paid by the very people they're rating! Same as auditors - we don't have a transparent system anywhere and yet the marks go on believing them. It can only end in chaos when institutional corruption is endemic.
The CDC and FDA budgets are paid by Big Pharma and they're supposed to regulate their products - go figure out.
BRICS has their own rating agencies project. We'll see how they operate but I doubt that it will be as corrupt as what the West has now, at least for the first 10-20 years!
Sudden thought 'N': My engineer friends say the old stuff is the best, designed to last, built like tanks, repairable etc. I was in Malta in 2000, before they joined the EU. They were running buses from the 1950s. When I asked a local how they sourced spares, he pointed to hundreds of little workshops making them and of course also offering a vital general engineering service all round. A classic example of a local economy which I envisage post apocalypse.

Soros is sponsoring the D.O.D bioweapons research in Ukraine and uses Slavs as guinea pigs.
All agreed. 'N' Soros has bought all the NGOs as part of the multi-pronged attacks everywhere. He's a Nazi Jew - an oxymoron if ever I've seen one!
Historic changes this week.....

Why can't the EU just print natural gas or oil?

Also note that all American banks that fail have AAA ratings. You're dealing with an empire of lies!

Thanks 'N' - you certainly dig up interesting stuff - you should be accorded the title of 'King Cybersurfer' :-D
