Peter Schiff: Dear Government, This Is Not Helpful!

Via SchiffGold.com,

After the stock market tanked last week, the Trump administration tried to do damage control and talk the economy back up. In his podcast, Peter Schiff said the damage control fell flat. In fact, everything the government is doing claiming to help isn't helping at all.

After what seemed like weeks of optimism, the bottom fell out of the markets on Thursday. The Dow Jones had its worst day since March, plunging over 1800 points. Some of the pessimism stemmed from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's comments on Wednesday when he said he of a recovery "it is a long road. It is going to take some time."

The Dow was back in correction territory. Meanwhile, the Russell 2000 is still in bear territory. The only market not negative on the year was the NASDAQ.

It was a bad omen when the markets didn't rally after the Fed meeting when the central bank indicated that it planned to keep rates at zero until at least 2022.

Before the big plunge, the mainstream has been pretty giddy, with a lot of people saying "you can't lose in the stock market." Peter said it was another sign of a bubble.

People were complacent. They thought they couldn't lose. Either they got a strong recovery, in which case the market went up, or we didn't have a recovery, we sunk back into recession, in which case the Fed came to the rescue with more money printing and then the market went up that way."

Peter said it looks like it's going to be the latter.

If anybody thinks they're going to make money in the market, it's not because of a strong recovery. It's going to be because the Fed continues to print money."

In effect, Powell dropped a bucket of cold water on the markets when he brushed aside optimism about the mythical "v-shaped" recovery. President Trump immediately went into damage control mode. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin went on CNBC and tried to pump up the markets by talking up the economy. He specifically noted all of the money the government is pumping into the economy.

You know, when you see somebody like Mnuchin talking about all the money that the government is pumping into the economy, you need to, in your mind, substitute the word inflation for money. Any time they say, 'We're pumping in money, we're pumping in liquidity,' just say to yourself, 'They're pumping in inflation.' Because that's what they're doing. And when you use that word, does it sound like its a good thing? 'Yes, we're pumping inflation into the economy.' Why would you want to do that? I don't want more inflation. That's the last thing we need is higher prices, right? Pumping inflation into the economy is not a good thing. But that's what pumping money into the economy is."

It's not like the government is putting real products into the economy. It's not creating wealth. It's not adding resources. It's not creating anything of value.

They're just putting numbers on a computer. It's not even paper - printed money. They're just electronically creating digits and that's not going to help the economy."

BEYOND THE MEDIA MATRIX

THE GLOBAL OLIGARCHY

https://web.archive.org/web/20191118142803/http://www.beyondthemediamatrix.net/

The world is run by a vastly powerful and wealthy British-American-European oligarchy of banks, corporations and dynastic families and institutions, which controls much of the wealth of the world. This cabal dominates finance and commerce, manipulates national currencies and economies, controls the media of most nations, and commands the earth's resources. Their wealth and power originated in the middle ages and expanded over the centuries, and today they reign supreme.
Few people are aware of the power and global influence of these oligarchs because they dominate the major media. As a result, instead of informing us, the media feeds us a steady diet of entertainment, disinformation and lies - to distract us and misdirect us - so that the oligarchy can achieve its plan to dominate the globe.
We see the world through the lens of the major media - for most people that means television. Books, newspapers, magazines, radio, and the internet play a role, but the vast majority of people around the world get their information from television. And, if those who own the global media conglomerates, and those who run the television networks and cable channels, decide to feed us disinformation and lies that serve the agendas of those in control, then, instead of being told the truth, we will learn not about the real world, but about the world they wish us to see, one that will serve their plan for global control.
Unless we reach beyond the media matrix to find sources that tell us the truth, authoritarian world government run by this powerful oligarchy will become a reality, and we will all be proles in a George Orwell totalitarian world.

Fed launches long-awaited Main Street lending program

The Federal Reserve said on Monday it had opened registration for lenders interested in participating in its Main Street Lending Program, launching arguably the most complex program undertaken yet by the U.S. central bank to help keep the backbone of the economy from buckling under the strains of the coronavirus pandemic.

The program, targeted at companies that were in good shape before the pandemic but may now need financing to retain workers and fund operations, will offer up to $600 billion in loans through participating financial institutions to U.S. businesses with up to 15,000 employees or with revenues up to $5 billion. Lenders must register using the lender portal here and are encouraged by the Fed to begin making program loans "immediately."

Administered by the Boston Fed, the program aims to offer credit to companies that may be too large to qualify for help from the Paycheck Protection Program, which targets businesses with fewer than 500 employees. Unlike the PPP, which was established by Congress in late March and offers loans that can be converted to grants if businesses meet certain requirements, the loans offered by the Main Street program must be repaid. It has taken nearly three months for the Fed to design, build and launch a program to extend credit to companies in all walks of the economy, a huge departure from its role as a lender to the banking sector.

Fed officials adjusted the Main Street program twice by expanding the range of loan sizes to make it available to more companies that need help keeping workers on staff. It also extended the loans to five years, with payments deferred for the first two years, to better help businesses struggling because of the crisis.

"Supporting small and mid-sized businesses so they are ready to reopen and rehire workers will help foster a broad-based economic recovery," Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in a statement last week after the most recent adjustment.

The central bank said it will be transparent about the lenders and borrowers participating in the Main Street program, reporting the names of lenders and borrowers, the amounts borrowed and interest rates charged, along with other details. Companies that borrow through the program will also be subject to limits on executive compensation, stock buybacks and dividend payments.

THE PLUTOCRACY CARTEL

AN ENTRENCHED GLOBAL ELITE OF VAST WEALTH HAS SPREAD ITS TENTACLES OVER THE EARTH WIELDING EXTRAORDINARY POWER OVER WORLD AFFAIRS

.-=====-.

According to this site, with its extensive leads for additional digging, the book Bloodlines of the Illuminati is too simplistic to explain the full depth and breadth of the Globalist Financial Criminal Conspiracy Network. You also need to look at groups and organizations and their interconnections.

While there may indeed be 13 major powerful bloodline families mostly in control, there are likely to be many other bloodlines that serve them in various sorts of minion roles, and it is these minions (remember what the yellow color means) that manage the flow of wealth into the Cabal. The vigorish always goes through several levels before it gets to the Godfather of the family.

So, there are Nordic Royal Families, Jewish banking Families, artificial families like the Roman Catholic Church, corrupt Masonic Lodges, Corporations, organized crime gangs like Mafia, nDrangheta, Hezbollah and Russia's Thieves-By-Law and even many NGOs.

There is a shadowy group of Plutocrats running multinational corporations, controlling the media narrative, manipulating the money supply, influencing governments, generating chaos, and provoking wars in order to further their agendas. These people are very real and extremely dangerous. They operate in the shadows, safely out of the light of public scrutiny. They manage by proxy, using cut-outs to do their bidding, never allowing themselves to get their hands dirty? Politicians are used and discarded, giving the illusion that they are the ones in control. The controllers' identities are hidden through a corporate shell game of holding companies and secret banking tax havens, in places like the Cayman Islands and Luxemburg. A thirst for publicity and a lust for the spotlight are liabilities if you want to excel in this endeavor. Better to rule from the shadows where your identity and intentions are unknown.
''
… The people running the show are mostly driven, professional, sociopaths with no discernible traces of compassion.''
… Some of our best-known leaders and public figures are actually psychopaths, and what makes a psychopath most effective is their overall lack of empathy. They simply do not have the ability to imagine or feel someone else's pain, and this frees them up to cross boundaries that the rest of us would never dream of crossing. They can operate without limits, giving them an advantage over everyone else. They are professional liars and damn proud of it.
… You do not make it to the top of the food chain by being nice, honest and fair; you get there by force, deception, and influence. You get there through violence, if necessary. You get there through blackmail and extortion. It takes planning and funding, patience and practice, and a mastery of how to use fear to control other people. Those running the world are playing a much different game than the rest of us, and the way they see it, there are no rules. Or at least the rules do not apply to them.
… Their plan is to change society in every country in a way that provides them a reason to impose a world government. The creation of a world central bank and an electronic world currency, in conjunction with the elimination of cash, would allow them complete control to dictate financial policy around the globe. Their policies would be enforced by their world army, and a micro-chipped population would live in fear of having their electronic currency deleted if they ever crossed the world government.

"The present century owes much of its record of horrors to the influential Anglophile American families which came to dominate and employ the Skull and Bones Society [Yale University] as a political recruiting agency, particularly the Harrimans, Whitneys, Vanderbilts, Rockefellers and their lawyers, the Lords and Tafts and Bundys.
The politically aggressive Guaranty Trust Company, run almost entirely by Skull and Bones initiates, was a financial vehicle of these families in the early 1900s. Guaranty Trust's support for the Bolshevik and Nazi revolutions overlapped the more intense endeavors in these fields by the Harrimans, George Walker and Prescott Bush [in New York], and in Berlin.
Skull and Bones was dominated from 1913 onward by the circles of Averell Harriman."
Webster Griffin Tarpley and Anton Chaitkin in their book "George Bush : The Unauthorized Biography"

"[Montagu] Norman [the Governor of the bank of England] had a devoted colleague in Benjamin Strong, the first governor of the Federal Reserve bank of New York… In the 1920's, they were determined to use the financial power of Britain and of the United States to force all the major countries of the world to go on the gold standard and to operate it through central banks free from all political control, with all questions of international finance to be settled by agreements by such central banks without interference from governments."
Carroll Quigley, historian and Georgetown University professor, in his book "Tragedy and Hope"

"In 1694, King William III of the House of Orange privatized the bank of England, established the City of London, and turned control of England's money over to an elite group of international bankers. This action paved the way for a private cartel of international bankers to embark on a plan of implementing world governance."
"How the City of London Controls World Power" an article from thedailybell.com"

"The bank of England is in effect a sovereign world power, for this privately owned institution is not subject to regulation or control in the slightest degree by the British Parliament… This privately owned and controlled institution functions as the great balance wheel of the credit of the world, able to expand or contract credit at will, and is subject only to the orders of the City, the City dominated by the fortune of the House of Rothschild and the policies of the House of Rothschild."
E. C. Knuth in his book "The Empire of the "City": The Secret History of British Financial Power

"In 1694, the bank of England was formed as a private central bank, which would issue the currency of the nation, lending it to the government and industry at interest, which would be paid back to the bank of England's shareholders, made up of these private banking dynasties. The 16th to the 19th centuries was the period in which both the nation-state and capitalism emerged, soon followed by central banking in the late 1600s. This is when the origins of what was known as a "world economy" took place."
Andrew Gavin Marshall in his book "Global Power and Global Government"

"Eventually international bankers owned as private corporations the central banks of the various European nations. The bank of England, bank of France and bank of Germany were not owned by their respective governments, as almost everyone imagines, but were privately owned monopolies granted by the heads of state, usually in return for loans."

"Powerful private families decide who controls the Federal Reserve, the bank of England, the bank of Japan and even the European central bank. Money is in their hands to destroy or create. Their aim is the ultimate control over future life on this planet, a supremacy earlier dictators and despots only ever dreamt of."
F. William Engdahl in his book "Seeds of Destuction"

"It is in the pecuniary interests of the international bankers to centralize political power, and this centralization can best be achieved within a collectivist society, such as socialist Russia, national socialist Germany, or a Fabian socialist United States."
Antony C. Sutton, Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler, 2002

"The war against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it."
George Orwell

"We are ruled, though it may be difficult to imagine, by a small dynastic power structure, largely consisting of powerful banking families, such as the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, and others. They emerged in controlling the financial system, extended their influence over the political system, the educational system, and, through the major foundations, have become the dominant social powers of our world, creating think tanks and other institutions which shape and change the course of society and modern human history."
Andrew Gavin Marshall

"Major world powers such as China, Russia, India, and Brazil tend to shy away from standing up more robustly to the bullying policies of the United States. Wealthy oligarchic circles in these countries have more in common with their elite counterparts in the U.S. and other core capitalist countries than their fellow countrymen at home. A de facto alliance exists between members of this global "nation" of the super-rich."
Ismael Hossein-Zadeh

"The control of the US, and of global politics, by the wealthiest families of the planet is exercised in a powerful, profound and clandestine manner. This control began in Europe and has a continuity that can be traced back to the time when the bankers discovered it was more profitable to give loans to governments than to needy individuals.
These banking families and their subservient beneficiaries have come to own most major businesses over the two centuries during which they have secretly and increasingly organised themselves as controllers of governments worldwide and as arbiters of war and peace."
Mujahid Kamran

"This world is not run by The Presidents or The Prime Ministers, it is run by the global corporations and the banks. For it is these entities that control the money supply and it is these entities that decide which country lives or falls."
The Daily Bell

"Our global banking system is a global cartel, a "super-entity" in which the world's major banks all own each other and own the controlling shares in the world's largest multinational corporations.
… This is the real "free market," a highly profitable global banking cartel, functioning as a worldwide financial Mafia."
Andrew Gavin Marshall

"The powers of financial capitalism had a far-reaching aim - nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the bank for International Settlements [BIS] in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations … Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

"At the center of the international financial system are the banks, asset management firms, oligarchs and financial dynasties that together control the network - or cartel - of the Global Financial Mafia. A network of roughly 150 of the world's largest financial institutions collectively control each other and a significant percentage of the network of the world's largest 47,000 transnational corporations. This unprecedented global financial power concentrated in a relatively small list of banks, insurance companies and asset management firms is itself controlled by rich and powerful individuals and families: the core constituency of the world of Global Financial Governance."
Andrew Gavin Marshall

"During the past two centuries when the peoples of the world were gradually winning their political freedom from the dynastic monarchies, the major banking families of Europe and America were actually reversing the trend by setting up new dynasties of political control through the formation of international financial combines. These banking dynasties had learned that all governments must have sources of revenue from which to borrow in times of emergency. They had also learned that by providing such funds from their own private resources, they could make both kings and democratic leaders tremendously subservient to their will."

China Adds Funds to banking System to Avoid Liquidity Shortage

China injected liquidity to the financial system by offering medium-term loans to banks, in the government's latest effort to avoid a funding crunch this month. It kept interest rates on the loans unchanged. The People's bank of China added 200 billion yuan ($28 billion) through the medium-term lending facility at a rate of 2.95%, according to a statement Monday. The injection was widely expected after the central bank said last week that it planned to roll over the one-year funds on Monday, depending on demand. It had allowed 500 billion yuan of the loans to mature on June 8.

At least 2.7 trillion yuan of cash will evaporate from the nation's financial system in June as short-term bank debt and policy loans mature. That puts pressure on the central bank to maintain its supportive policy stance without fueling a credit bubble. While Chinese authorities have cut policy rates multiple times this year, they've avoided the large-scale stimulus seen in other major economies to avoid aggravating the country's massive debt problem.

China's central bank has been conducting MLF operations on the 15th of very month or the first business day after that, a pattern that analysts have said may help standardize open-market operations and improve monetary-policy transparency. Another 240 billion yuan of the one-year facility is due to mature on Friday.

Separately, the PBOC allowed 120 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repurchase agreements to mature on Monday.

China's "V-Shaped" Recovery Stalls As Big Three Macro Signals Disappoint

As a second wave of COVID-19 begins to spread in both Beijing and Guangzhou (with a warning from a Vice Premier of a high risk that the outbreak spreads and new figures show Beijing reported 36 new cases on June 14), China's miraculous "V-shaped" recovery was expected to continue.Early in the evening, China home prices beat expectations rising at a 0.42% MoM clip - the best since Oct 2019…because who wouldn't want to be bidding up prices in China right now. Earlier in the month, the manufacturing PMIs suggested some further stabilization, though not much of a strengthening last month. Exports dropped, though by less than anticipated, at -3.3% year-on-year, while imports tumbled hard, with a 16.7% slide.

And then the big China data dump hit:
-Industrial Production -2.8% YTD YoY (slightly better than the expected 3% drop and an improvement on last last month)
-Retail Sales -13.5% YTD YoY (matched expectations and improved from the 16.2% drop last month)
-Fixed Asset Investment -6.3% YTD YoY (worse than the expected 6.0% drop but an improvement over last month)
-Property Investment -0.3% YTD YoY (better than the 0.8% drop expected and a big improvement from the 3.3% drop last month)
-Surveyed Jobless Rate 5.9% (as expected and better than the 6.0% last month)
The immediate takeaway perhaps is that China's economy continues to improve (after the crushing Q1 blow due to COVID-19 containment-driven shutdowns) but that pace of recovery may not be living up to expectations. Of course, none of this should be a massive surprise as, once again, China has injected unprecedented amounts of credit into the economy to keep the mirage of growth alive and maintain a semblance of social cohesion. The question is - what happens when the second wave (or third) hit and even more so-called "stimulus" is needed?

Economic Release/Activity/for week of June 14th, 2020-US Futures and Asian Markets fully opened

Asian stocks, oil sell off on second wave fears
Asian markets started the week on the backfoot on Monday while oil prices slipped as fears of a second wave of coronavirus infections in China sent investors scurrying for safe-havens. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was down 0.25% with Australian shares off 0.4% and South Korea slipping 0.6%. Japan's Nikkei fell 0.75%. The losses follow a strong rally in global equities since late March, fuelled by central bank and fiscal stimulus and optimism as countries gradually lifted restrictions put in place to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus. However, risk sentiment took a knock after Beijing recorded dozens of new COVID-19 cases in recent days, all linked to a major wholesale food market. Investors are also fretting over a spike in cases in the United States. The Chinese yuan dipped in offshore trade to 7.0877 per dollar while the risk-sensitive currencies of Australia and New Zealand were also sold off. Both were last down 0.4% at $0.6855 and $0.6424, respectively.

Investors are keeping a close eye on Chinese industrial production and retail sales figures due later in the day for signs of recovery in the world's second-largest economy. Elsewhere, the dollar was little changed at 107.46 yen as investors avoided big moves before a bank of Japan policy meeting ending Tuesday. No major changes are expected, but some investors may be interested in Governor Haruhiko Kuroda's views on its yield curve control policy. U.S. central bankers have discussed the option of adopting yield curve control to cap bond yields.Analysts said further tests awaited global markets this week - in particular whether re-opening hopes could still push equities higher. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is due to testify before Congress. In commodities, oil prices slipped with Brent down 2% at $37.95 a barrel while U.S. crude fell 2.7% at $35.26. Gold rose 0.2% to $1,732.2 an ounce on safe haven demand.

"Powell Is Now Helpless": Even A Modest Market Wobble Threatens To Devastate The Real Economy

"We're not even thinking about thinking of raising rates," declared America's Fed Chairman, all but eliminating uncertainty about the Fed policy path through 2022. The S&P 500 had completed a historic recovery from the pandemic lows to trade higher on the year, its price utterly disconnected from today's economic devastation.

But markets never discount today, they discount tomorrow. And no sooner had they taken a little peek at what prices looked like back on January 1st then they began to plunge.

Some blamed signs of a viral resurgence, though that had swirled for days. Others blamed Millennials whose day-trading resembles the dot.com mania. And a few blamed General Milley, America's top-ranking general, who apologized for joining the President on his ill-fated march to St. John's Church. You see, the generals have turned their backs on Trump over his response to demonstrators. The NFL has too; its commissioner apologized for having opposed taking a knee. Even NASCAR banned the Confederate Flag. And as Trump's re-election prospects tanked, expectations for a dramatic restructuring of America's economy soared.

Efforts to rebalance the division of profits between capital and labor is demanded by a riotous Main Street. But this terrifies Wall Street, which has worked for years with Republicans, Democrats, CEOs and the Fed to extract an ever-increasing share of national prosperity for those who control capital.

This imbalance is central to today's tumult. "If we held back because we think asset prices are too high - what would happen to those people who we are legally supposed to be serving?" asked Powell rhetorically, unsuccessfully defending himself from a rising chorus of critics who see the Federal Reserve as amplifying inequality.

For decades, the central bank accommodated the financialization of the world's largest economy.

Now that the process is largely complete, even a modest market wobble threatens to devastate the real economy. And Powell is now helpless, caught in a trap of the Fed's making.

Hmm…. perhaps. Problem I have is that this message/this promise of wonderful freedom and independance is always used to promote the new toys. Think Twitter, Google, Facebook etc etc. All promoted as exciting new youth led (and owned) boring conformity killers. Be in the edge, try this, your parents won't know, it's kinda rebellious and free……….
And you dip your toes in, and you relent and you become addicted and it passes you by that you are actually now even more fully connected to and slave of The Big Guys than the people who never took the bait and never put every inch of their existence on record electronically to be 'owned' by large Governmental structures that either bought up the Youthful tools or indeed always secretly controlled them

So bitcoin? The future? central bank overlords really going to turn money exchange over to hip, cool 'free' standing concepts such as Bitcoin?
No hidden tendrils already promoting it as an alternative to Big bank monopoly (to catch the youth yet again) only to show their controlling hand further down the line?

Nope, evidence suggests life isn't that perfect. banks will hunt to control

Robert Kiyosaki: What The Elites Don't Want You To Know

Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad, Poor dad says there's something the elitists don't want you to know. There's a simple way to take back your power, and it involves removing yourself from any centralized banking system.

These centralized systems were all set up for the elite by the elite, and they don't want you to know you can remove yourself from the system, or the Matrix, so to speak. All you have to do is invest and spend outside of their system. Decentralized systems are already in place, and the key to breaking free involves understanding that the central banks were not set up to help you.

The Federal Reserve, the United States central bank, has "printed" [created out of thin air] more than $2 trillion since the global economic crisis began, and when the Fed prints money it makes the price of assets like gold, silver, and Bitcoin go up. As Robert Kiyosaki says, central banks are run by the "controlling elite." These elites do not like gold or because central banks cannot print gold. Equally, central banks do not like Bitcoin and the blockchain because what Robert calls people's money, does not need central banks either.

Today, billions of people are trapped in a central banking system owned by the mega-rich and are losing big time because they are saving money. Kiyosaki says he knew the "leaders" of the world were screwed up, but even he didn't think they were as diabolical as they have revealed themselves to be. "People are missing out on one of the biggest, catastrophic cash heists, of the whole world," says Kiyosaki. "Our governments have really screwed up," he adds. So it's time to leave the system or be dragged into slavery by staying in it. After all, they shut down the world to cover up something "very very big."

Kiyosaki says to get crytpo. The reason he likes it is because it's outside the system. The elitists and politicians cannot control Bitcoin, and they are terrified of people realizing this. This is panicking all of the control systems of the globe (the governments.) They do not want you to figure this out. This was put in a fine way by a man named Jake Ducey, who understands, like Kiyosaki, that we are embedded in this Matrix of mind control. But we can remove ourselves, and it's remarkably easy.

But first, it's important for you to understand why they need you to think you can't be free of the rigged system. Once you figure it out, you'll break out immediately, and it renders them useless. As Duecy says, "what good is a lifetime politician, that's been a politician for 40 years, that's made all this money off of taxpayer money (theft) and insider investing...what good are they if we realize we can create a better world without them? It renders them useless. Now, what good are the people that are behind the scenes, pulling the strings on those types of puppets, and we don't even know who they are, ad they hide in the shadows, what good are they? NONE! And that's why there's a vested interest in censorship and control of any information that uplifts and changes the thought patterns of too many people."

Q Research General #12300: Happy Birthday General Trump! Edition

Julian Assange just called. To talk about the pandemic's effect on capitalism & politics!

Julian called me a little earlier on, at 14.22 London time to be precise. From Belmarsh High Security Prison of course. This is not the first time but, as you can imagine, every time I hear his voice I feel honoured and moved that he should dial my number when he has such few and far between opportunities to place calls.
"I want a perspective on world developments out there - I have none in here", he said. Which, of course, placed a considerable burden on me to articulate thoughts on capitalism's fate during this pandemic and the repercussions of it all on politics, geopolitics etc. The knowledge that Her Majesty's Prison authorities would discontinue our discussion at any moment made the task harder.
In a feeble attempt to paint a picture for him on as broad a canvass as possible, I shared with Julian my main thought of the last weeks:
Never before has the world of money (i.e. the money markets, that include the share markets) been so decoupled from the world of real people, real stuff - from the real economy.
We watch in awe as GDP, personal incomes, wages, company revenues, businesses small and large, collapse while the stock market is staying relatively unscathed. The other day, Hertz declared bankruptcy. When a company does this, its share price goes to zero. Not now. In fact, Hertz is about to issue $1 billion worth of new shares. Why would anyone buy shares of an officially bankrupt company? The answer is: Because central banks print mountain ranges of money and give it for almost free to financiers to buy any piece of junk floating around the stock exchange.
"Complete zombification of the corporations", is how I put it to Julian. Julian commented that this proves that governments and central banks can keep corporations afloat even when they sell next to nothing at the marketplace. I agreed. But, I also pointed out a major conundrum that capitalism faces for the first time. It is this:
central bank money printing keeps asset prices very high while the price of 'stuff' and wages fall. This disconnect can go on growing. But, when Hertz, British Airways etc. can survive in this manner, they have no reason not to fire half the workforce and to cut the wages of the other half. This creates more deflation/depression in the real economy. Which means that the central banks must print more and more to keep asset and share prices high. At some point, the masses out there will rebel and governments will be under pressure to divert some income to them. But this will deflate asset prices. At that point, because these assets are used by corporations as collateral for all the loans they take out to stay afloat, they will lose access to liquidity. A sequence of corporate failures will commence under circumstances of stagnation. "I don't think capitalism can easily survive, at least not without huge social and geopolitical conflicts, this conundrum", was my conclusion.
Julian thought about this for a moment and asked me: "How important is consumption to capitalism? What percentage of GDP is at stake if consumption does not recover? Do the corporations need workers or customers?" I answered that it was high enough to make this conundrum real. Yes, central banks and robots can keep the corporations going without customers or workers. But, robots cannot buy the stuff they produce. So, this is not a stable equilibrium. The losses in people's incomes will accelerate, thus generating pivotal discontent.
Julian then said something along the lines of: That will benefit Trump who knows how to feed off the anger of the multitudes toward the educated, upper middle-class elites. I agreed, saying that DiEM25 has been warning since 2016 that socialism for the oligarchy and austerity for the many, in the end, feeds the racist ultra-right. That we are experiencing again what happened in the 1920s in Italy with the rise of Mussolini.
Julian agreed entirely and said: Yes, like then, there is an alliance forming between rich people and the discontented working class. He then added that most of the prisoners and the prison officers in Belmarsh support... Trump. At that point the connection was cut off.
Our conversation lasted 9'47''. It was more substantive, and of course moving, than any conversation I have had in a while.

-The Jews are the leadership and vanguard of a movement of literal satan worshippers who want to reduce the world's population drastically and rule over an unintelligent, brown slave class.
-Communism was invented by these people for the sole purpose of instituting a worldwide police state through which they can rule, and they plan to institute it universally through the UN.
-Manmade climate change is a hoax, just like the holocaust, designed to scare and guilt people into accepting new draconian rules and losing their way of life.
-They are perfectly willing to allow Islam to fester so long as they can control its leadership to ensure that it keeps the masses terrified and under control while not harming them.
-They created and control ISIS.
-9/11 was orchestrated by the Jews and their Saudi puppets with Bush's knowledge.
-They control literally every nation on earth that has a central bank.
-They propped the United States and Russia up as superpowers in order to use them both to transform the world. They are now propping China up as they head toward the next stage of their plan.
-The migrant crisis was carefully planned and orchestrated by them in order to flood white nations with low-IQ blacks and muslims.
-They are socially engineering us to believe that whiteness is evil and that racemixing is our duty in order to wipe out whites as they see us as their biggest threat.
-They hate Christianity above all else and are doing everything in their power to eradicate it.
-95% of American pastors for the last century have been bought by Jews and spoonfed kike propaganda to lead their congregations into worshipping the kikes as "God's chosen people" even though the Bible calls them the Synagogue of Satan and Christ-killers.
-Faggotry, trannyism, feminism, and porn are all funded and pushed by them to reduce birthrates, especially amongst whites.
-They are behind every anti-white movement as they desperately want a race war.

Jew have created a logic trap to force whites into submission:

1. Nazis are evil and should be killed
2. We gaslit other you own and other races to hate you with our propaganda arms.
3. If you oppose being destroyed, you're a Nazi.

Take out the commie Jews in media and this narrative goes away.

central banks Bailed Out Markets To Avoid Trillions In Pension Losses

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) recently published a report showing how pension funds in OECD countries recorded a massive loss of approximately $2.5 trillion during the stock market meltdown in February through late March. Shortly, after that, central banks intervened with monetary cannons to rescue stock markets and other financial assets to avoid pension returns from going negative.

The spread of COVID-19 worldwide and its knock-on effects on financial markets during the first quarter of 2020 are likely to have reversed some of these gains. Early estimates suggest that pension fund assets at the end of Q1 2020 could have dropped to USD 29.8 trillion, down 8% compared to end-2019 [or about a $2.5 trillion loss].

Bloomberg's Lisa Abramowicz pointed out in a tweet, "this report [referring to the OECD report] shows the massiveness of pension assets & points to why central banks are tethered to bailing out markets: social infrastructures depend on their not going down too much."

Abramowicz is 100% right. A significant drop in asset prices, if that is in equities, commodities, corporate bonds, etc., central bankers are quick to act by lowering interest rates and firing up the printing presses.

To sum up, central banks are in the game of supporting asset prices so pension funds can deliver positive returns if negative returns are seen, the Ponzi implodes and social unrest follows. However, social unrest has already begun despite the central bank induced V-shaped recovery in financial asset prices. What do central bankers do now?

China allows American Express to tap into its lucrative market despite rising tensions with US

American Express has become the first foreign company to be allowed to process yuan transactions in China as it received final approval to start operating a bank card clearing network in the country.

China's central bank announced on Saturday that it had granted a clearing licence to American Express's joint venture with LianLian DigiTech, Express (Hangzhou) Technology Services. The company, which won initial approval two years ago, is set to start the clearing services within six months, according to the statement.

The approval means that Chinese retailers will soon be able to accept payments from American Express credit cards, the use of which has been limited to some high-end restaurants and hotels. The New York-based firm will take some market share from China UnionPay, which is currently the only bank card clearance agency in China.

The People's bank of China (PBOC) stressed that the move reflects China's continued opening up of its financial industry. Foreign companies have long been trying to enter the rapidly growing Chinese market, which had 8.5 billion bank cards in circulation as of last year and where mobile transactions reached 190 trillion yuan ($27 trillion) in 2018, according to Bloomberg. Other card giants - such as Mastercard and Visa - earlier submitted applications for clearance, but have not received similar PBOC approval so far.

AmEx Wins Clearing License for China's $27 Trillion Market

American Express Co. received approval to start bank card clearing services in China, making it the first foreign payments network to be allowed to process local currency transactions in one of the world's largest markets.

The People's bank of China granted a network clearing license to American Express's China joint venture, Express (Hangzhou) Technology Services Co., the central bank said in a statement on Saturday. The company, which won initial approval in 2018, is required to start the clearing service within six months, according to the statement.

The approval marks a win for the card giant amid rising political tension between the U.S. and China sparked by the coronavirus outbreak and a crackdown on Hong Kong. It underscores China's commitment to opening its $45 trillion financial markets this year, in a bid to attract foreign capital and support growth.

AmEx will face large domestic competitors and a well-developed market for mobile payments. Mobile transactions topped 190 trillion yuan ($27 trillion) in China in 2018, making it the world's largest such market, according to iResearch. Ant Financial's Alipay and Tencent Holdings Ltd.'s WeChat Pay are the dominant firms.

China had 8.5 billion bank cards in circulation at the end of September, with over 90% of them debit cards.

The approval is welcome news for New York-based AmEx. Spending on the firm's cards in May was down in the mid-30% from a year earlier, after a 45% decline in March. The company set aside $2.6 billion in provisions for losses in the first quarter, while its shares have fallen 18% this year. China committed to speeding up access to its market for card companies as part of the phase one U.S. trade deal signed earlier this year. It's been a long process since the nation in June 2015 opened to licensing foreign firms to end a monopoly by state-run China UnionPay Co. Mastercard Inc. in February won initial approval to set up its bank card clearing business in China, while progress has been slow for Visa Inc.

The opening to card companies is part of a broader plan by China to give access to its markets, which also includes insurance, asset management and investment banking. BlackRock Inc. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. are among a bevy of firms that are preparing to pile in full bore to capture profits from China's fast-growing wealth.

Wall Street banks Tank One Day After Fed Chair Says They're "a Source of Strength"

Every major Wall Street bank tanked yesterday. Citigroup fared the worst, losing 13.37 percent of its market value versus a broader market decline of 5.89 percent on the S&P 500 Index. bank of America didn't look like much of a source of strength either, losing 10.04 percent on the day. The largest bank in the country, JPMorgan Chase, whose CEO, Jamie Dimon, perpetually brags about its "fortress balance sheet," lost 8.34 percent. For a close look at what's hiding in the tall weeds behind that fortress, see here.

Just the afternoon before this bank carnage, this is what the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, had to say in his press conference about the U.S. banking system (which, of course, the Fed has been in charge of supervising in order to prevent another catastrophic blowup as occurred in 2008):

"You have a banking system that is so much better capitalized, so much stronger, better aware of its risks, better at managing its risks, more highly liquid. You have all of those things and they've been lending, they've been taking in deposits, they've been a source of strength in this situation."

If these mega banks on Wall Street are in such good shape, why did the Fed have to jump in on September 17, 2019 - months before the first COVID-19 case appeared anywhere in the world - and start pumping hundreds of billions of dollars a week in loans to the trading units owned by these banks?

According to the Fed's December 10-11 meeting minutes, its emergency repo loans amounted to "roughly $215 billion per day" flowing at super cheap interest rates to the trading houses on Wall Street. That amounted to approximately $6.23 trillion cumulatively in loans to these "highly liquid" banks. As of today, that figure stands in excess of $9 trillion in cumulative repo loans and the program is ongoing.

And then, of course, there's that alphabet soup of emergency lending programs that the Fed has since rolled out to bail out Wall Street banks in a replay of the bailouts of 2007 to 2010.

Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin has stated that this financial crisis is nothing like the last one. But if that were true the Fed would not be using the identical emergency bailout programs that it used in 2007 to 2010. These are the names of the emergency funding facilities that the Fed used in the last crisis that it has recreated and given even the same names today: the Primary Dealer Credit Facility (PDCF); the Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF); the Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility (MMMFLF); the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF) and the Foreign central bank Dollar Liquidity Swaps. The Fed has brand new bailout programs as well, such as the corporate bond buying programs, the Main Street Loan Facility (which does not sound like it will help actual Main Street businesses) and the Municipal Liquidity Facility to support lending to city, state and county governments. That last one is not yet operational.

The Fed is also flooding liquidity into Wall Street via quantitative easing programs (which it also used following the 2008 Wall Street crisis). This is where it buys up the excessive debt instruments that are clogging up the financial system. On September 18, 2019, one day after the Fed began its still unexplained emergency repo loan program, the Fed's balance sheet stood at $3.89 trillion. On that date, it held $3.59 trillion in Treasury and Mortgage-Backed Securities that it had purchased and taken off the books of the banks. As of yesterday, the Fed's balance sheet had ballooned to $7.2 trillion with $5.9 trillion in Treasury and Mortgage-Backed Securities. In order to keep the wheels from coming off the Wall Street banking bus, the Fed has had to purchase $2 trillion in debt from Wall Street in a period of just 9 months while flooding the system with $9 trillion cumulatively in repo loans. Since mid-March, the Fed has been making those repo loans at 1/10th of one percent interest - effectively free money going to Wall Street.

We're simply not buying the idea that these six mega banks with $202 trillion notional (face amount) in opaque derivatives are going to provide the strength we need in this storm.It's long past the time to break up these banks and restore the Glass-Steagall Act where the casino trading houses are separated from the federally-insured, deposit-holding banks.

Pentagon Documents Reveal The U.S. Has Planned For A Bitcoin Rebellion
Billy Bambrough
Billy BambroughContributor
Crypto & Blockchain
I write about how bitcoin, crypto and blockchain can change the world.

Bitcoin has struggled to find support in the U.S. government, with president Donald Trump, along with Treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin, leading the criticism.
Now, it's been revealed the U.S. Department of Defense has wargamed scenarios involving a Generation Z rebellion that uses bitcoin to undermine and evade "the establishment."
In the Pentagon war game, young people born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s use cyber attacks to steal money and convert it to bitcoin, documents published by investigative news site The Intercept revealed.
Called the 2018 Joint Land, Air and Sea Strategic Special Program (JLASS), the war game is set in 2025 and is "intended to reflect a plausible depiction of major trends and influences in the world regions."
The scenario, which echoes recent protests in the U.S. and around the world against racial injustice, involves some members of Gen Z, who see themselves "as agents for social change" and believe the "system is rigged" against them, begin a "global cyber campaign to expose injustice and corruption and to support causes it deem[s] beneficial."
The group, called Zbellion, encourages cyber attacks against organizations that support "the establishment," funnelling stolen cash into bitcoin to make "small, below the threshold donations" to "worthy recipients" and Zbellion members.
The program, which also reportedly wargamed scenarios involving Islamist militants and anti-capitalist extremists, was conducted by students and faculty from the U.S. military's war colleges, the training ground for prospective generals and admirals.
Bitcoin has increasingly been adopted by Wall Street and the world's biggest financial institutions since its 2017 price explosion but remains a tool to fight government control.
The Pentagon war game documents have been revealed after Florida Republican Representative Matt Gaetz called for the government to "freeze" the money of demonstrators after country-wide protests over the killing of George Floyd turned violent this month.
"One of the most important tools in the authoritarian toolkit is the ability to freeze the funding of legitimate political dissent," Nathaniel Whittemore, a bitcoin and cryptocurrency consultant and strategist, said previously.
"By separating the infrastructure of money from the infrastructure of state power, bitcoin makes it that much harder for this type of politically motivated confiscation."
Bitcoin has seen a surge of interest in recent months due to the coronavirus pandemic and never-before-seen levels of government borrowing.
"In the wake of unprecedented central bank action around the Covid-19 crisis, it seemed like the most relevant narrative of bitcoin in 2020 was as a hedge against inflation," Whittemore said.
"It appears, however, that its capacity for censorship resistance might be just as relevant."

"Stupid And Ridiculous": Rabobank Says The Fed Will Cause Everything To Come Crashing Down In Epic Ruin

Powell Play

"central banks carry out a nation's monetary policy and control its money supply, often mandated with maintaining low inflation and steady GDP growth. On a macro basis, central banks influence interest rates and participate in open market operations to control the cost of borrowing and lending throughout an economy." Investopedia

Really? That's how it works, is it? At this point anyone who can't see our real economic/financial market paradigm is either foolish, ignorant, or wilfully blind. The Fed has just admitted wages can't rise except by making very rich people very much richer for a long, long time; then, finally, they might start to go up - perhaps. Moreover, the Fed has demonstrated yet again that it not only ignores asset bubbles it will "never hold back support for the economy even if asset prices are too high" but that it wants those bubbles. How can this end well?

Look at the uneven distribution of stock holdings. Gallup states that as of 4 June 2020, 55% of the US owns some stock: 66% of those aged 50-64 and 32% of those 18-29; 58% of men and 52% of women; 64% of whites, 42% of blacks, and 28% of Hispanics; 85% of post-graduates and 33% of those with no college education. It is far from genuine equality of ownership by any means. But what Gallup does not say, and Goldman Sachs does, is that as of February this year 50% of the US stock market was owned by the top 1% of society.

Could we please have the intellectual honesty just to admit the system as it exists today functions to give more money to ultra-rich people? This is no longer a 'free market system'. Water does not find its own level. It is channelled through canals cut by an establishment, and some fields are watered very well and others left arid. This is not 'capitalism' as anyone teaches or models it, where money is made from productively investing in making things. It is speculative financial-capitalism, where money is made by watching money being made by central banks, which is then channelled into the stock of firms who often don't make things. Given the homilies that central banks are now coming out with about inequality, one could even say it is even oligarchy excreting noblesse oblige. Yet perhaps it is even worse: central banks saying "Let them eat stocks."

For those who roll out the cliché: "Well, the central-bank toolkit only allows X, Y, or Z - what can they do?" consider that these toolkits seem to expand on a weekly basis - but never in a direction that means wages will go up ahead of assets. Never. All the feverish innovation goes into new channels to get house prices up, or stocks, or sovereign or junk bonds (some of which are the same thing).

Yes, Powell did say more needs to be done on the fiscal side. What we did NOT get was a clear message aimed at the public, who would then demand it of their government: "Spend more on infrastructure, and/or national security supply-chain on-shoring, and/or social programs to narrow inequality: we will buy all the bonds needed to pay for it." You know, "Whatever it takes" - but this time for the many and not the few. It was more of a "Whatever" as the Fed described a bleak future US economic landscape where many millions of jobs may never come back...and the response is still to channel more money to the rich via asset bubbles.

Meanwhile, and far from unrelated, in Seattle six city blocks have been seized by protestors. As the Seattle Times notes "Welcome to the CHAZ, the newly named Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, where most everything was free Tuesday. Free snacks at the No-Cop Co-op. Free gas masks from some guy's sedan. Free speech at the speaker's circle, where anyone could say their piece. A free documentary movie - Ava DuVernay's "13th" - showing after dark. A Free Capitol Hill, according to no shortage of spray paint on building facades." When the rich get everything free, why shouldn't everyone else? It's a good question. Some people aren't waiting for MMT from on high - they are trying to get it moving themselves.

A Whole Day's Trades Get Canceled in Kuwait Over Dividend Chaos

The timing wasn't ideal: while Kuwait's central bank governor was in a forum Wednesday with lawmakers and executives discussing plans to boost the economy, shares in the Gulf state's lenders were tumbling as investors reacted to some unexpected news.

The Kuwait banking Association announced during the bourse's trading session that its members would pay no cash dividends for 2020. National bank of Kuwait SAK fell the most in seven weeks, joining declines across the sector. Turnover jumped to the highest since March. Traders were still assessing a dramatic day when Al-Jarida newspaper tweeted that banks were seeking an urgent meeting with their association, suggesting a breakdown in communication.

The country's Capital Markets Authority stepped in on Thursday, saying the industry group wasn't qualified to make the announcement on shareholder payouts. The regulator canceled all of Wednesday's trades on the exchange. banks issued statements saying there had been no decision on dividends. The mayhem unfolded at a moment when there is more attention than usual on the market. Kuwait is expected to join MSCI Inc.'s widely followed emerging-markets equity index in November, a promotion that was delayed from May due to challenges thrown up by the coronavirus pandemic. The move failed to spare banking stocks from dropping again on Thursday, with price changes calculated from Tuesday's close. Lenders including National bank of Kuwait, Kuwait Finance House KSCP and Gulf bank KSCP lost between 1.9% and 7%, dragging the main local index down 1.9%, the most in the Gulf. The market is the region's worst performer this year, after Dubai. Kuwait's budget shortfall is expected to reach 40% of gross domestic product in the fiscal year that started April 1, the most since the 1991 Gulf War and its aftermath, according to National bank of Kuwait calculations. That compares to a gap of between 15% and 25% for most Gulf countries.

Meanwhile, the authorities' response to the stock market tumult may end up doing more harm than good.

The CMA's decision to cancel all the trades "is a grave mistake and will hurt the stock exchange's reputation," lawmaker Bader Al-Mulla said on Twitter. The regulator didn't immediately respond to a request for comment after working hours on Thursday.

BlackRock Authored the Bailout Plan Before There Was a Crisis - Now It's Been Hired by three central banks to Implement the Plan

BlackRock Authors of "Going Direct." Top, left to right: Stanley Fischer, Philipp Hildebrand. Bottom, left to right: Jean Boivin, Elga Bartsch.

It's called "Going Direct." That's the financial bailout plan designed and authored by former central bankers now on the payroll at BlackRock, an investment manager of $7 trillion in stock and bond funds. The plan was rolled out in August 2019 at the G7 summit of central bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming - months before the public was aware of any financial crisis. One month later, on September 17, 2019, the U.S. Federal Reserve would begin an emergency repo loan bailout program, making hundreds of billions of dollars a week in loans by "going direct" to the trading houses on Wall Street.

The BlackRock plan calls for blurring the lines between government fiscal policy and central bank monetary policy - exactly what the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve are doing today in the United States. BlackRock has now been hired by the Federal Reserve, the bank of Canada, and Sweden's central bank, Riksbank, to implement key features of the plan. Three of the authors of the BlackRock plan previously worked as central bankers in the U.S., Canada and Switzerland, respectively.

The authors wrote in the white paper that "in a downturn the only solution is for a more formal - and historically unusual - coordination of monetary and fiscal policy to provide effective stimulus."

We now understand why, for the first time in history, the U.S. Congress handed over $454 billion of taxpayers' money to the Fed, without any meaningful debate, to eat losses on toxic assets produced by the Wall Street banks it supervises. The Fed plans to leverage the $454 billion into a $4.54 trillion bailout plan, "going direct" with bailouts to the commercial paper market, money market funds, and a host of other markets.

The BlackRock plan further explains why, for the first time in history, the Fed has hired BlackRock to "go direct" and buy up $750 billion in both primary and secondary corporate bonds and bond ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds), a product of which BlackRock is one of the largest purveyors in the world. Adding further outrage, the BlackRock-run program will get $75 billion of the $454 billion in taxpayers' money to eat the losses on its corporate bond purchases, which will include its own ETFs, which the Fed is allowing it to buy in the program.

Helicopter money is also spelled out in the BlackRock plan, which explains why simultaneously with the $454 billion Congress carved out for the Fed under the CARES Act, fiscal stimulus was also "going direct" with $1200 checks and direct deposits to the little people of America and Paycheck Protection Program loans and grants "going direct" to small businesses.

IMF Board Approves $5 Billion Ukraine Loan, Disburses First Cash

The International Monetary Fund's executive board approved $5 billion of aid to Ukraine, the culmination of months of talks that grew more urgent as the coronavirus pandemic struck. The Washington-based lender will disburse the first $2.1 billion loan tranche immediately, according to an emailed statement Tuesday. Ukraine needs money to help cover its budget deficit, which tripled as the government ramped up economic support amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

Ukraine initially sought the IMF assistance last year as a means of bolstering its foreign reserves and reassuring international investors that it was serious about overhauling its economy. But key requirements including the lifting of a moratorium on farmland sales and measures to protect the nationalization of the country's biggest bank took much longer than envisioned to complete.

"The program will focus on safeguarding medium-term fiscal sustainability, preserving central bank independence and the flexible exchange rate, " said IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva in the statement. "Concerted reform efforts aimed at tackling corruption and strengthening governance will be critical to ensure macroeconomic stability and achieve sustainable and inclusive growth."

The financing approved by the board is for 18 months, rather than the originally planned three years, and the volume was reduced from an earlier $8 billion.

Ukraine's economy will probably shrink 8.2% this year, the IMF said. Helping to cushion the blow, Tuesday's deal unlocks additional funding from the World bank and the European Union.

Q Research General #12205: Treason Is the Reason for our Season Edition

Amid Small Business Carnage, Fed Expands Eligibility Of Main Street Lending Program

With stocks recovering all 2020 losses, one would think that the economy is firing on all cylinders. Unfortunately, based on the message just sent out by the Fed, nothing could be further from the truth.

While the market still waits for the Fed to officially start making loans on its Main Street Lending Program, today at 330pm, the Fed announced that it expanded the eligibility criteria for this facility "to allow more small and medium-sized businesses to be able to receive support." The facility will be open for eligible lenders "soon," while the burden on banks that create the loans would be lessened.

Changes to the eligibility criteria include:

Lowering the minimum loan size for certain loans to $250,000 from $500,000;
Increasing the maximum loan size for all facilities;
Increasing the term of each loan option to five years, from four years;
Extending the repayment period for all loans by delaying principal payments for two years, rather than one; and
Raising the Reserve bank's participation to 95% for all loans.

In short: America's small businesses - and we mean really small business, those which desperately need as little as 250K to survive yet can't find willing bank lenders - are in such dire shape that only the Fed has the willingness to step in and bail them out as banks refuse to take on the credit risk.

To juice bank interest in participating, going forward they will be required to hold only 5% of the loans on their balance sheet for all three facilities, far less than the 15% they had to hold previously. "Supporting small and mid-sized businesses so they are ready to reopen and rehire workers will help foster a broad-based economic recovery," Powell said in the statement explaining the expansion. "I am confident the changes we are making will improve the ability of the Main Street Lending Program to support employment during this difficult period."

And here is the Fed again confusing solvency with liquidity, and assuming that just because business incur billions more in debt they will somehow become more viable or retain workers. Unfortunately, as we discussed on Friday, this simply won't happen because whereas US corporations have already issued over $1.1 trillion in IG debt, the bulk of its has been retainer (or is being used to fund dividends and buybacks), even as millions of workers are being let go.

The Fed also unveiled that The Main Street program will be open for lender registration soon, and the central bank will start buying loans "shortly afterward." The three facilities are backed by a $75 billion investment from the Treasury Department that's part of the $454 billion allocated by Congress in the CARES Act for the Fed's emergency-lending programs during the coronavirus pandemic. Expect the entire investment to be wiped out over the next few years as all the companies that take out the Fed-guaranteed loans file for bankruptcy anyway.

Gold futures finish higher on expectations for continued central bank stimulus

Gold futures finished higher on Monday, recouping about half of what they lost in the previous session on expectations that central banks will continue stimulus measures to support the economy. The U.S. Federal Reserve will make a statement on its monetary policy on Wednesday. August gold GCQ20, +1.40% rose $22.10, or 1.3%, to settle at $1,705.10 an ounce. Prices for the most-active contract had lost 2.6% on Friday to end at their lowest since April 3, according to FactSet data.

The Founders were infiltrated. Alexander Hamilton and Gouverneur Morris were connected to European bankers. Morris was a creepy amputee-pedophile who had a thing for young girls.

Just follow the history of the banks of the United States. Hamiliton and his federalists pushed through the first one. Its charter expired in 1811. Why was there a war in 1812? Hmmm?

Andrew Jackson paid off the national debt and got rid of the second bank. The elites intentionally dried up the money supply in retribution, resulting in the Panic of 1837, the first real depression in US history.

In 1841, half of President Tyler's cabinet resigned and blocked the establishent of the third central bank. It wasn't until 1913 when the Fed was illegally created that we got another central bank.

Study the history of central banking, the Federalists, the Whigs, and Democrats and you'll see the threads connect back to the European bankers and the Illuminati.

Q Research General #12143: The Beginning Is Near Edition

Venezuela, Minneapolis, Iran, Europe - Trump's Last Gasps of Collapsing World Control - Or is it?

There comes a time when shooting around in circles just hits walls, bullets splinter off sidewalks, and shatter a window here and there. But people are in safety. They watch from a distance and with self-assurance.

Venezuela has received five tankers from Iran loaded with hydrocarbons - petrol gas, additives - shipped through a totally US-militarized Caribbean Sea, amidst warnings of attacks and retaliations - and as usual, sanctions 'no end'. How much more sanctions can a country get? There is an immune system, called sovereignty and fearlessness - confidence and dignity. Knowing your rights. That's what makes the whole difference.

Granted, the tankers were escorted by the Venezuelan Navy and Air Force; especially through Venezuelan waters. And they made it undisturbed to the port of El Palito, a small Venezuelan port run by Venezuela's state oil company PDVSA. The American shooting didn't take place and the event was not televised.

Another aggression against Venezuelan sovereignty is the bank of England's withholding totally illegally some US$ 1.2 billion worth of Venezuelan gold, deposited voluntarily by Venezuela in times of trust - as part of Venezuela's reserve funds. With oil prices collapsed, Venezuela decided to use part of her gold reserves to purchase medication and food to counter the disastrous corona effects.

Venezuela claimed the gold deposited at the bank of England (BoE) which offers gold custodian services mostly but not exclusively to developing nations; and so, does the New York FED and the bank for International Settlements (BIS) in Basle and several other international institutions and central banks considered safe and trustworthy. These are legal arrangements under which the depositing country may withdraw the funds at any time and at will.

Venezuela has a sovereign right to claim these funds without any explanation or justification. The BoE refused, claiming the Government of Nicolas Maduro was not the legitimate government recognized by the UK. Can you imagine - if any government decides to confiscate funds from another government, because they don't like its leadership - where would we end up? - Well, there is not much guessing. We are already there. The Anglo-Zionist world makes its own rules and decides over and above any international law. And the spineless European puppets follow their cue. It is high time that this matrix collapses and gives way to a civilization that recognizes the values of democracy, justice, basic ethics and human rights.

In this case, Venezuela explained that the money is needed to buy food and medication to counter the nefarious effects of COVID-19. The UN, intervening on behalf of Venezuela, has requested the BoE to return the money. That gesture or action by the UN is in itself is an act of 'independence' by the UN against the US, for whom the UN otherwise does the bidding. But to no avail. The BoE didn't release the Venezuelan-owned gold. As a compromise, Venezuela suggested that the funds be handed over to UNDP (United Nations Development Program) which would buy vital food and medication for Venezuela.

Already at the end of 2018, Venezuelan Finance Minister Simón Zerpa and central bank President Calixto Ortega, travelled to London to demand that Venezuela be allowed to take the gold back to Venezuela. In January 2019, the BoE refused the request. All it said publicly was that it did not comment on customer relationships. However, the real reason was clear.

European central bank ramps up pandemic bond buys to 1.35 trillion euros

The European central bank has boosted its pandemic emergency support program by 600 billion euros to 1.35 trillion euros (US$1.5 trillion) in an effort to keep affordable credit flowing to the economy during the steep downturn caused by the virus outbreak.
The central bank for the 19 countries that use the euro also extended the monetary stimulus program to at least the end of June next year, from the end of 2020 currently.
ECB President Christine Lagarde will give her assessment of the economy at a news conference after the meeting, which due to the pandemic was held by teleconference among the 25 members of the bank's governing council.
Under the pandemic support program, the ECB buys corporate and government bonds and other financial assets from banks, paying with newly created money. That helps lower longer-term interest rates, keeping the pandemic from drying up needed funding for borrowers.
The large size of the intended purchases also sends a signal to financial markets that the ECB is determined to ensure interest rates remain low throughout the eurozone and prevent borrowing costs from rising for indebted governments such as Italy.
While the ECB says its purchases are not targeted at supporting Italy, the program so far bought a larger share of Italian bonds than for other countries and is credited with keeping market pressure off a nation that has been among the hardest hit by the pandemic.
Italy's lockdown will cost it lost tax revenues and additional spending to support the economy. That means added borrowing that will boost its already large debt pile of 135 percent of annual economic output. Any investor doubts about Italy's ability to pay could lead to a spiral of higher borrowing costs and trigger a financial crisis similar to the one that led to Greece and four other member governments needing international bailouts in 2010-2015.
The support from the ECB comes on top of up to 540 billion euros agreed on by the eurozone member governments that includes credit lines from the euro bailout fund, and a longer-term recovery fund of 750 billion euro recovery fund backed by common borrowing by EU governments that is still being worked out. Germany, the largest member economy, on Wednesday proposed an additional 130 billion euros of stimulus including tax breaks and subsidies for buying electric cars.
The different support packages aim to cushion what the European Union's executive commission says will be a steep fall of 7.75 percent in economic output this year and to support a recovery in coming years.
The central bank left its key interest rate benchmarks unchanged at record lows on Thursday. The rate at which the ECB lends to banks is zero. Its rate on deposits left overnight by commercial banks is now minus 0.5 percent, a penalty aimed at pushing banks to lend the excess cash. The bank has also set up long-term offers of credit to banks at even lower rates if they show they are lending to companies.

Hedge Fund CIO: "Stocks Are Going Parabolic For All The Wrong Reasons: The Fed Made A Massive Mistake"

Authored by Eric Peters, CIO of One River Asset Management

"This game is about inches, little decisions, luck, never forget that," grunted Bulldog, one of the great trading talents. "I saw that Wuhan mess in late Jan and bought S&P puts," barked Dawg.

"By mid-Feb they were pretty worthless." From Jan 31 through Feb 19 the S&P rallied 5%. "Once the market started to puke those puts came back to life, and with days left to expiration I sold them and went on vacation. That cost me a 50-1 payout," he growled.

"It's alright, I've gotten lucky plenty of times, move on, next," said Dawg, itching a torn ear from some old brawl. "Stocks trade like they're going parabolic for all the wrong reasons, like the Fed made a massive mistake, gave away too much free money." 1998/1999 raced through Bulldog's mind.

"The coming top is going to be it. We won't see it again for decades."

Herd: "I guess we're entering the stage where we still pretend to care more about people's lives than economic activity, but we kind of get on with it anyway," said the CIO. "Looks like we're going to let this thing just run its course, like the Swedes did, but without anyone ever acknowledging we made that decision." The CDC's latest report estimates a 0.4% fatality rate. To hit 65% herd immunity, 858k Americans will die in the absence of a cure/vaccine. "And if there's one thing you know, it's that if we get a 2nd wave there's no way we lock down again."

Schiff: It's "Game Over For The Fed"

In a speech at the Cambridge House Vancouver Resource Investment Conference back on Jan. 19, 2020, Peter Schiff said it was "game over" for the Federal Reserve. It's interesting to look back at his remarks in context with what's going on over at the central bank today. If it was game over then, where are we now?

Peter opened the speech by pointing out that going into 2019, everybody expected the Fed to raise interest rates three times.

Well, they got the number right. The Fed did move interest rates three times. Except the direction was the opposite of what everybody thought. Instead of hiking interest rates three times, the Fed cut interest rates three times."

U.S. Stock Futures Drop as Protests Grow; Yen Up

It's still very early and the Futures movement can be moved in a millisecond-the big boi's push this around where they want it to go

U.S. stock futures fell as investors weighed the violent protests in some American cities that have stoked concerns about a reacceleration in infection rates and a damper on the economic recovery. The yen and gold edged up. S&P 500 futures opened lower. With Amazon scaling back deliveries and Apple closing some stores Sunday, investors are gauging how violence over the weekend will affect the reopening of the world's largest economy. Crude oil fell. China's markets will be taking in President Donald Trump's latest barrage of China criticism, which stopped short of tough sanctions over Hong Kong. Traders on Monday will also take stock of a slew of manufacturing PMIs due, including from South Korea and Taiwan, after Chinese data over the weekend showed a continued bumpy recovery. The demonstrations in the U.S. could add another layer of complexity after a two-month rally in global equities from March lows. Australia's central bank is expected to keep its main policy programs unchanged on Tuesday. So too is the case for Canada, which has options to add stimulus but will probably stand pat on Wednesday to allow more time to evaluate the progress of policy action.In Europe, the ECB is expected to top up its rescue program with an additional 500 billion euros of asset purchases. Anything less than an expansion at Thursday's meeting would be a big shock, Bloomberg Economics said.The U.S. labor market report on Friday will probably show American unemployment soared to 19.6% in May, the highest since the 1930s.

Satanist banking System Explains Our Woes

Tom: "The lockdown destroyed everything there was no need for a lockdown what was the agenda?"

The lockdown should have elicited riots. But instead we have a tawdry farce against "police brutality" funded by George Soros on the basis of a flimsy psy-op.

Politics is a function of money.

Money is humanity's blood supply. The heart that pumps this "blood" around the world is the central bank. Unfortunately, this "heart" is run by Satanists who intend to enslave us before the rotten structure collapses.

The world financial system is incredibly sophisticated and efficient. Every day, billions of transactions take place.

In our minds, "money" is changing hands. In fact, "money" is an abstraction, a mental concept. "Money is a massive game of 'Let's Pretend" i.e. make-believe.

Money doesn't exist. It is simply a mental estimate of the value of something expressed in digits in some currency.

"Did the Titanic's sinking lead to the Federal Reserve being started?

The founding of the American central bank the Federal Reserve has spawned a legion of conspiracy theories. The fact that it took place just a year after the Titanic sank has led to the doomed ship being pulled into some of these theories. central banking was a very controversial topic at the time, and the maiden voyage of the Titanic had three of the wealthiest Americans living at the time: John Jacob Astor IV, Benjamin Guggenheim, and Isidor Straus.

As the theory goes, these men were the most high-profile opponents of the Federal Reserve, but their deaths would clear the way for the bank's creation."

'US statements are fake, not Libyan money': Moscow rebuffs accusations of printing counterfeit dinars

Moscow printed dinars for Libya in accordance with a government contract, so Washington's claims of it being fake money have nothing to do with reality, according to Russia's Foreign Ministry.

The US State Department announced on Friday that $1.1 billion worth of "counterfeit, Russian-printed Libyan currency" was seized in Malta earlier this week.

Moscow confirmed the dinars were indeed printed by Russian state-owned company Goznak, but it was done in accordance with a contract it signed with the central bank of Libya in 2015. The order was fully paid for by the Libyan side, it was announced.

Following the NATO-backed removal of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011 and years of chaos, Libya is now run by two rival governments, which both have their own central banks. Moscow said it sent money to Benghazi, which is controlled by the Libyan National Army (LNA) of Khalifa Haftar, because the head of the local bank was appointed by the democratically elected parliament. The seized money was essential for stabilizing the troubled Libyan economy, the ministry added.

Therefore, it's the American statements that are false, but not the Libyan dinars.

Washington, which backs the UN recognized Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA), has labeled the LNA and its bank "an illegal parallel entity."

Moscow reiterated its stance that the conflict in Libya should only be solved behind the negotiations table, calling upon the sides to lay down arms and start talking.

Saudi Arabia Moved $40 Billion in Reserves to Sovereign Fund

Saudi Arabia transferred 150 billion riyals ($40 billion) from its central bank to its sovereign wealth fund as it went on an investment spree seeking to take advantage of recent market turmoil. The transfers from the kingdom's foreign-currency reserves to its Public Investment Fund were made in March and April on an "exceptional" basis, and will "strengthen the investment capacity of the fund," Finance Minister Mohammed Al-Jadaan said in a statement published by the official Saudi Press Agency on Friday. The move comes as the world's largest crude exporter faces exceptional fiscal pressure from a crash in global oil markets. Al-Jadaan said the central bank transfer contributed to a historic drop in Saudi Arabia's net foreign assets, which fell at the fastest rate in two decades in March, and will also have an impact on April's central bank data, expected to be released on Sunday.

"This procedure was taken after comprehensive study and taking into consideration the sufficient level for foreign-currency reserves," Al-Jadaan said. The PIF has an "important role in diversifying and strengthening economic growth," he said, noting that the fund's investment returns "will be available to support public finances if needed."

A regulatory filing earlier this month showed that the sovereign fund has spent billions of dollars this year buying equities, including stakes in cruise operator Carnival as well as BP Plc, Boeing Co., Citigroup Inc and Facebook Inc. In his statement on Friday, Al-Jadaan said the fund was capitalizing on "a range of investment opportunities that presented themselves in light of the current circumstances global financial markets are passing through."

The news of the fund's buying spree abroad coincided with the government cutting back on spending at home. Al-Jadaan has said that the kingdom will need to trim expenses this year to redirect resources to health care and supporting businesses as the coronavirus pandemic hobbles economic growth.

Earlier this month, the government cut back state worker allowances and announced it will triple a value-added tax, shocking citizens and business owners. Saudi Arabia's non-oil economy is expected to contract this year for the first time in three decades.

Fed Tapers Daily Treasury Purchases To Just $4.5 Billion Per Day

Because they are busy buying Blackrock's shit

From an initial $75 billion per day when the Fed announced the launch of Unlimited QE in mid-March, the US central bank first reduced its daily buying to $60 billion per day, then announced a series of consecutive 'tapers' as follows:

$50 billion per day
$30 billion per day
$15 billion per day
$10 billion per day
$8 billion per day
$7 billion per day
$6 billion per day

Then, after again shrinking the average daily POMO to $5 billion last week, in its latest just published schedule, the Fed unveiled that in the coming week it would purchase "only" $4.5BN per day, or a total of $22.5BN for the week. The Fed is continuing the practice of incremental tapering, and providing a weekly preview of its purchasing operations, which in the coming week will amount to just $22.5BN in TSYs, up $2.5BN from the current week which however was one day short due to the Monday holiday.
Somewhat surprisingly, for the second week in a row the Fed decided not to taper its daily MBS buying, which will average $4.5 billion per day next week, the same as last week, and matches the buying of Treasuries for the :

Mon: $4.47BN vs no purchases on Monday's holiday
Tue: $4.545BN vs $4.23BN
Wed: $4.47BN vs $4.770BN
Thur: $4.4545BN vs $4.230BN
Fri: $4.47BN vs $4.770BN

Cap #2 summarizes all the Fed Treasury and MBS buying completed and scheduled since the relaunch of QE on March 13.
Cap #3 is the FRB's balance sheet.
In aggregate, the Fed will buy a total of $45 billion of TSYs/MBS next week and ever closer to spark concerns that the Fed is no longer monetizing all the Treasury issuance, of which there is and will be trillion in the coming quarters.

But not yet: once again there was no reaction in yields, with the 10Y trading at 0.66%, after the announcement, exactly where it was last week, and 2bps above where it was trading at exactly this time one week ago, and unchanged from 2 weeks ago.

Q Research General #11984: Nobody Escapes This~Q Edition

Our Grim Future: Restored Neoliberalism or Hybrid Neofascism?

With the specter of a New Great Depression hovering over most of the planet, realpolitik perspectives for a radical change of the political economy framework we live in are not exactly encouraging.

Western ruling elites will be deploying myriad tactics to perpetuate the passivity of populations barely emerging from de facto house arrest, including a massive disciplinary - in a Foucault sense - drive by states and business/finance circles.

In his latest book, La Desaparicion de los Rituales, Byung-Chul Han shows how total communication, especially in a time of pandemic, now coincides with total vigilance: "Domination impersonates freedom. Big Data generates a domineering knowledge that allows the possibility of intervening in the human psyche, and manipulating it. Considering it this way, the data-ist imperative of transparency is not a continuation of the Enlightenment, but its ending."

This revamping of Foucault's Discipline and Punish coincides with reports about the demise of the neoliberal era being vastly overstated. Instead of a simplistic plunge into populist nationalism, what is on the horizon points mostly to a Neoliberalism Restoration - massively spun as a novelty, and incorporating some Keynesian elements: after all, in the post-Lockdown era, to "save" the markets and private initiative the state must not only intervene but also facilitate a possible ecological transition.

The bottom line: we may be facing a mere cosmetic approach, in which the deep structural crisis of zombie capitalism - barely moving under unpopular "reforms" and infinite debt - still is not addressed.

Meanwhile, what is going to happen to assorted fascisms? Eric Hobsbawm showed us in Age of Extremes how the key to the fascist right was always mass mobilization: "Fascists were the revolutionaries of the counter-revolution".

We may be heading further than mere, crude neofascism. Call it Hybrid Neofascism. Their political stars bow to global market imperatives while switching political competition to the cultural arena.

That's what true "illiberalism" is all about: the mix between neoliberalism - unrestricted capital mobility, central bank diktats - and political authoritarianism. Here's where we find Trump, Modi and Bolsonaro.

From Anthropocene to Capitalocene

To counterpunch zombie neoliberalism, those believing another world is possible dream of a social-democratic revival; wealth redistribution; or at least neoliberalism with a human face.

That's where eco-socialism jumps in: a radical rupture with the diktats of the Goddess of the Market, the product of a healthy rebellion against ultra-authoritarian neoliberalism and illiberalism.

In sum, that could be seen as a soft adaptation of Thomas Piketty's analyses: to break the domination of capital by economic democracy, in the spirit of mid-19th century social democracy.

It's quite interesting, in this aspect, to consider Fully Automated Luxury Communism, by Aaron Bastani, a refreshing utopian manifesto where we see that once society is stripped off everything superfluous linked to alienation, it's still possible for everyone to find all the necessary technical means to live "in luxury" without recourse to infinity growth imposed by Capital.

And that brings us to the direct link between the Anthropocene and what has been conceptualized by French economist Benjamin Coriat as the Capitalocene.

Capitalocene means that our current state of appalling planetary degradation should not be linked to an undefined "humanity" but "to a very defined humanity organized by a predatory economic system."

The state of the planet under the Anthropocene must be imperatively linked to the hegemonic economic system of the past two centuries: the way we developed our system of production and legitimized indiscriminate predatory practices.

The Bitcoin boom started in 2009 and rapidly spread to other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is without borders as it does not have a home country, and thus where it is not backed by a country, it also has no supervision or accountability. Not all banks accept Bitcoin, but it flourishes elsewhere. But without official backing, Bitcoin can disappear instantly. It is virtual money, and resides on servers that can go offline, taking any value with it. Why then would there be a movement to link US citizens directly to the Federal Reserve via a cryptocurrency called a Digital Dollar?

It is no secret that the Western banks are struggling, with countries and corporations close to bankruptcy. banks in the European Union are already using negative interest rates, which means the citizen pays the bank to hold its money. bank failures are pending, and with Nibiru's approach about to create worldwide mayhem, what will become of the banking system? central banks are erected to add dollars to the economy as the population grows, at a controlled rate that will not incite inflation. But bankers earn fat salaries and enjoy the sense of power and control they wield.

The Covid-19 crisis has put stress on the banking network, in that many loans cannot make their scheduled payments. The banks have two options - force bankruptcy in those account holders, or defer payments or forgive debt. The reality of the network is that the central bank creates new money, loans it to the individual banks which are then allowed to loan it to the public many times over. None of this activity costs the bankers any money, as it is all shuffling numbers on a balance sheet. Deferring payments or forgiving debt is painless except that the bankers' salaries might not be met.

As long as a currency is accepted around the world, and inflation is not going rampant such that the country is not becoming a banana republic, there should be no problem in doing what President Trump has recently done by releasing money during the Covid-19 emergency. There is, in fact, no national debt due to such maneuvers in the past or present. The central bank and the banking networks did nothing to earn this status, thus are owed nothing. But given the rules that are promulgated, what is to become of the Western banking network when bank failure becomes endemic?

The Digital Dollar is designed to hide the fact that a bank is in fact bankrupt. It is designed to replace Credit Card use, pushing this activity into the arms of the central bank where evidence of bankruptcy can be hidden. The Digital Dollar is by nature ephemeral, as the French proposal states, with "tokens destroyed at the end of the payment day". This is money laundering made legal. The alternative is to allow banks to go belly-up into bankruptcy, be absorbed into stronger banks, and eventually be absorbed into the central bank in any case. For the banking systems, these are truly the End Times.

Venezuela Allowed To Sell UK-Stored Gold To Buy Food And Medicine

One month after Venezuela asked the bank of England to sell part of the South American nation's gold reserves held in its vaults and send the proceeds to the United Nations to help with the country's coronavirus-fighting efforts, Venezuela has reached a deal with the U.N. Development Programme (UNDP) to use a part of its gold reserves bank of England accounts to finance the purchase of food and medicine during the coronavirus pandemic, its central bank governor said on Wednesday according to Reuters.

The deal comes after the central bank made a legal claim earlier this month to force the bank to hand over part of the 31 tonnes of gold in accounts belonging to the government of President Nicolas Maduro, who Britain does not recognize as Venezuela's legitimate leader due to allegations he rigged his 2018 re-election, and has effectively "temporarily" confiscated Venezuela gold until the country has a leader that is internationally recognized.

central bank governor Calixto Ortega told Reuters that under the arrangement, the UNDP would receive the funds directly, a move meant to assuage concerns about potential corruption in the management of the money.

"It's not my word, it's not me saying that I am going to buy food, medicine and medical equipment," Ortega said in an interview in his downtown Caracas office. "It's the United Nations who is saying that, and they are not going to be involved in anything dark that is not neutral and independent."

Venezuela for decades stored gold that makes up part of its central bank reserves in the vaults of foreign financial institutions including the bank of England, which provides gold custodian services to many developing countries, before former president Hugo Chavez repatriated 160 tons of fold, worth more than $11BN at the time.

But the bank of England has since 2018 refused to transfer the 31 tonnes of gold it still holds to the government of President Nicolas Maduro, whom Great Britain has refused to recognize as the country's legitimate leader after his disputed 2018 re-election.

The ongoing effort signals that Maduro is desperately seeking financial resources around the world as the country's economy struggles under low oil prices, crippling U.S. sanctions and a paralyzing coronavirus quarantine.

As Reuters reported last month, it was not immediately evident how much gold Venezuela was asking the bank of England to sell. At current market prices, Venezuelan gold on deposit at the bank of England would be worth around $1.7 billion.

Venezuela has lived a six-year economic crisis driven by an collapsing socialist system and a decaying oil industry, driving a mass migration of nearly 5 million people and fueling hyperinflation that has left many unable to obtain basic food. Recent tightening of U.S. sanctions meant to oust Maduro have strangled fuel imports, prompting Venezuelans to wait for hours in fuel stations queues or turn to the pricey black market.

Maduro's government has for years raised cash by selling or pledging gold, both from artisanal mines in the southern Amazon jungle and from gold reserves held by the central bank.

The central bank has continued to remove gold from its coffers in the last month with the hopes of exporting it, according to three sources, one of whom said eight tonnes have been removed since quarantine started in mid-March. central bank data shows that total monetary reserves fell more than $500 million between April 14 and 24.

Employees who work in the wing of central bank where the gold vaults are located have been arriving to work despite the quarantine, according to Reuters. It was not immediately evident how many gold sale operations had been carried out or where the gold was sold.

Part of the proceeds were used to acquire supplies to refine the country's crude in response to the near collapse of the country's 1.3 million barrel-per-day refining circuit.

Six tons of gold had already been withdrawn from the central bank between the end of 2019 and beginning of 2020 and sold to acquire euros in cash, which the institution channeled through local banks and the government used to pay suppliers.

Following the latest withdrawal, the central bank would still have more than 80 tonnes of gold in its vaults, according to sources, compared with 129 tonnes at the start of 2019.

"A Moment Of Truth For The Euro": ECB Preparing To Run QE Without Bundesbank

The shape of Europe's massive monetary injection may change dramatically in the coming months. According to Reuters, citing four sources, the ECB has drafted contingency plans to carry out its multi-trillion QE programme without the Bundesbank in case Germany's top court forces the main participant in the scheme to quit.

Not only is the European central bank planning on how to continue QE without German - mostly by having other European central banks step in although it is unclear just how effective this would be - but, in a worst-case scenario, the ECB would also launch an "unprecedented legal action against the German central bank, its biggest shareholder, to bring it back into the program."

According to Reuters, such a moves would mark "a moment of truth for the euro", testing Germany's commitment to a currency it played the biggest role in creating (for a simple reason: Germany was the primary beneficiary for years as eliminating the chronically strong Deutsche Mark allowed German exports to flourish), and forcing it to tackle some deep-seated reservations within the country about ECB policies.

As reported earlier this month, Germany's constitutional court gave the ECB an ultimatum until early August to justify its massive buying of government bonds or continue the scheme without the Bundesbank, which carries out more than a quarter of the bond purchases. Without the Bundesbank, the ECB's QE is effectively done.

While consensus remains optimistic, expecting the legal challenge from the court in Karlsruhe to be resolved by the Bundesbank itself by demonstrating that the policy was appropriate and addressing concerns about its side effects, staff at the ECB and the euro zone's national central banks are preparing for what one source described as the "unbelievable": a scenario in which the court bans the Bundesbank from taking part in the purchases.

In that case, the ECB, or less likely the other euro zone central banks, would take up the Bundesbank's quota in the Public Sector Purchase Programme (PSPP) and buy German bonds, although with far fewer non-German bonds in private hands in Europe, the European QE program would have to be forcibly shrunk on very short notice.

There is one loophole: to allow other central banks to buy Bunds, Europe's "no risk sharing" principle - one which the Bundesbank itself insisted upon when the programme was launched in 2015 - would have to be broken. Until now each national central bank bought its own government's bonds and the risk is shared over the limited amount of debt bought by the ECB itself.

The ECB has slowed down German bond purchases since the start of the coronavirus pandemic to focus its firepower on Italy, which has come under pressure in the bond market as the outbreak has savaged its already shaky public finances. Indeed, according to Reuters, Bundesbank purchases of German sovereign debt, or Bunds, totaled just 628 million euros ($688 million) in April, or just 2.3% of the government bonds bought under the PSPP that month.

There is a bigger problem: even if the Bundesbank quits the scheme, leaving Germany's Bunds out is "not an option" given that they serve as the de facto euro zone benchmark for private investors thanks to their top-notch credit rating and ample availability. Nobody would buy Italian debt just because German bonds were not available.

As per FKing usual

The U.S. plans to lend $500 billion to large companies. It won't require them to preserve jobs or limit executive pay.
The Fed's coronavirus aid program lacks restrictions Congress placed on companies seeking financial help under other programs

A Federal Reserve program expected to begin within weeks will provide hundreds of billions in emergency aid to large American corporations without requiring them to save jobs or limit payments to executives and shareholders.

Under the program, the central bank will buy up to $500 billion in bonds issued by large companies. The companies will use the influx of cash as a financial lifeline but are required to pay it back with interest.

Unlike other portions of the relief for American businesses, however, this aid will be exempt from rules passed by Congress requiring recipients to limit dividends, executive compensation and stock buybacks and does not direct the companies to maintain certain employment levels.

Lebanese central bank official arrested over currency allegations Currency crisis deepens as prime minister and central bank trade accusations

A Lebanese prosecutor has arrested a senior official at the country's central bank and charged him with illegally manipulating the exchange rate, amid growing conflict between the bank and some political factions. Prosecutor Ali Ibrahim charged Mazen Hamdan, the central bank's director of cash operations, with currency manipulation on May 18, a judicial source told Agence France-Presse. Hamdan was arrested on Ibrahim's orders on May 14, local media sources reported.

So…just a regular reminder regarding the greatest act of treason in American history!

1913!
A demonrat House, demonrat Senate and extreme racist demonrat president (not deserving of a capital p) committed outright treason, by violating the American Constitution and allowing the setting up of a foreign pond-scum owned central bank and giving foreign entities absolute control over the American currency. Through the terrible con of requiring the American (and later, Canadian) taxpayer to be named as "co-signor" and responsible for all debts TO the foreign pond scum - the demonrats gave control over America and the PEOPLE of America to foreign pond scum.

Control in America is a right given by the Founding Fathers to ONLY the PEOPLE and THEIR elected government and it is limited as far as government is concerned and immutable as far as the PEOPLE are concerned!

Thus, by the demonrats of 1913 committing - en masse - the most heinous treason imaginable, giving control over America to foreign scumbags - and treasonous, corrupt domestic scumbags - and turning 100's of millions of Americans into debt slaves to globalist pigs for generations…the globalist pigs feel it is their right to own and control America and Americans. The globalist scum also feel that all the money in the world "rightfully" belongs to them and if people in any country want to use their own currency…they can borrow off the scum at interest - or die if they try another avenue.

Americans must never forget the last 107 years of economic and physical slavery - planned by foreign scum and orchestrated and implemented by the treasonous demonrat party - of ALL Americans regardless race, color, creed, religion, sex or age.

The misery of the last 107 years in America and subsequently all over the world is due the globalist scum forcing on the PEOPLE of the world the disgusting concepts of 'debt-based economy,' central banks, economic/policy control over elected governments through use of currency; use what they viewed as [their] American slave's wealth and human treasure to enforce globalist scum designs worldwide, whether to kill or steal or whatever the globalists wanted. That is NOT what the REAL America is like…and you can find that out by looking at the American Heart. AMERICANS don't do things like that…but economic and physical slaves who are constantly fed disinformation do as ordered by their 'leaders.'

ALL AMERICANS must keep this uppermost in mind - demonrats have always been slave owners. demonrats owned ALL slaves, demonrats created the kkk, demonrats voted against ending slavery, demonrats voted against giving American citizenship to their freed slaves, the demonrats voted against giving slaves the right to vote.

Anyone in America, ABSOLUTELY ANYONE who thinks the demonrat slave-owners should be voted for is NOT American or at least not a FREE AMERICAN!

Marcel Ospel, Architect of the Swiss bank UBS, Is Dead at 70

Marcel Ospel, who fashioned the Swiss bank UBS into a global banking power but then saw it come close to unraveling during the financial crisis of 2008, died on April 26 at his home in Wollerau, Switzerland, near Zurich. He was 70.

The cause was cancer, his wife, Adriana Ospel-Bodner, said.

Mr. Ospel rose from modest origins to become the leading figure in Swiss banking in the early years of this century - and, for a time, one of the top financial executives of his generation. His crowning achievement was engineering the merger in 1998 of Swiss bank Corporation, which he headed, with Union bank of Switzerland, creating the wealth management giant UBS.

As UBS's first chief executive, Mr. Ospel sought to parlay the bank's status as the largest player in the cozy and secretive Swiss banking world into a position as a leading global wealth manager and investment bank. As part of that effort he acquired the big American brokerage firm PaineWebber in 2000.

Like rival executives at other banks, including Deutsche bank in Germany and Barclays in Britain, Mr. Ospel championed investment banking and trading in sophisticated financial products, like derivatives. He also helped usher in an era of large salaries and bonuses for himself and other bankers, which exposed him to criticism when the business soured.

When the financial crisis hit in 2008, UBS found itself stuck with large losses in American financial products like mortgage-backed securities. The bank was forced to accept a bailout by the Swiss central bank in 2008. That same year, Mr. Ospel, who had moved up to the chairmanship in 2001 but was still active in guiding the bank, resigned amid much criticism over the bank's need to be rescued.

The next year, UBS agreed to pay fines and other penalties of $780 million to settle a case in which it was accused of helping American clients evade taxes. As part of the deal, the bank agreed to turn over information on potential tax evaders to the American authorities, thus piercing Switzerland's cherished bank secrecy.

As an executive at that bank in the 1990s, he was involved in buying O'Connor, a Chicago derivatives house; S.G. Warburg, a British investment bank; and Brinson Partners, an American wealth management firm - deals that appeared to give the Swiss bank the confidence to move on to bigger game when Mr. Ospel ultimately took charge of it.

After leaving UBS, Mr. Ospel kept a low profile, spending time with Ms. Ospel-Bodner, whom he married in 2005, and their twins, a son and daughter, who also survive him, as do two sons and two daughters from two previous marriages.

The Gateway Pundit reported on rumors swirling that the recent firings of top Italian spies were related to Obama and a plot to set up candidate and President Trump during the 2016 election.
As reported on May 25th==>>
Earlier this month Italian Prime Minister Conte asked for the resignations of four top intelligence officials after his call with President Donald Trump.
And now another Internet Sleuth has uncovered some shocking news related to the recent removal of these top Italian intelligence ministers from their positions as top spies in the government.
government.
The story begins in January 2017 when Computer World wrote about alleged crimes committed by Italian Giulio Occhionero:
The Tuesday arrest of Giulio Occhionero and his sister, Francesca Maria, has brought to light what appears to be the biggest, and highest-profile, hacking of institutional and corporate accounts ever reported in Italy.
The siblings have been planting the Pyramid Eye remote access Trojan on computers using a spear-phishing technique over several years, according to the arrest order.
They attacked at least 18,000 high-profile targets, including former Prime Ministers Matteo Renzi and Mario Monti, President of European central bank Mario Draghi, as well as employees and heads of various ministries including Internal Affairs, Treasury, Finance and Education.
But Giulio Occhionero claimed that he and his sister, Francesca Maria, were set up. A piece reported by Frederico Punzi, writing in The Atlantico, notes their denials and more:
Occhionero complained to the Prosecutor of the Republic of Perugia and wrote to the U.S. Congress and the FBI. In fact, there are a number of contradictions and suspicious circumstances in the case.

==Occhionero claims and it was reported that:
Members of Italian intelligence were approached by Hillary Clinton, the Obama Administration, and the Deep State in order to frame Trump by PLANTING EVIDENCE on American servers to force Trump to step down from office.==

In other words, members of Italian intelligence found a target in Occhionero, a Republican-sympathizer who had two servers for his company, Westland Securities, located in America. One was in Washington State, and the other in West Virginia.
The plan was for Italian Intelligence to hack into these servers, plant classified emails from Hillary's servers inside these servers on American soil, and then alert the FBI.
The FBI would then raid these locations, "discover" these e-mails, investigate, link these servers to Trump...

central bank Digital Currencies On the Way

Six countries have digital currency pilot programs in place. Canada is in development mode while the US lags.

The central bank Digital Currency Tracker shows the evolution towards central bank sponsored digital currencies.

Nearly 80% of central banks are engaged in work related to national digital currencies, according to a 2020 bank of International Settlements survey.

Last month, China announced a pilot project of its digital Yuan in four cities. This month, the US is considering implementing a digital dollar.

Digital Currencies are Coming

There are advantages to digital currencies especially in terms of payments.

But the push for digital currencies is also nefarious. Once cash is banned, governments can and will track every penny of every person 100% of the time.

And I do expect a ban on cash, starting with Sweden.

Once in place, digital currencies open up new avenues of control especially in regards to negative interest rates and wealth taxes.

Guaido Wants Role in BOE Spat Over $1 Billion in Venezuelan Gold

The Venezuelan opposition, led by Juan Guaido, sought to intervene in a legal fight between the country's central bank and the bank of England over access to $1 billion in gold reserves.

At a remote hearing Thursday in London, a lawyer acting for the Venezuelan government-appointed central bank said the BOE wanted to postpone the proceedings "to permit Mr. Guaido to intervene and to lay claim to the central bank's gold."

The Venezuelan bank asked the BOE to liquidate the gold and send the funds to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), which is working with the country to prepare for an increase in Covid-19 cases. While the coronavirus pandemic adds a dramatic new twist to the dispute, the lawsuit is part of a long-running fight over the funds related to American efforts to cut off President Nicolas Maduro's regime from its overseas assets.

In response, the BOE said it was "caught in the middle" of conflicting claims. "The regrettable, irregular, and unrealistic approach adopted by the Maduro Board in these proceedings leaves the BOE unacceptably exposed," the bank's attorney Brian Kennelly said.

The judge adjourned the hearing for a week.

Instead, the Secretariat for the Economy, under the leadership of prefect Fr. Juan Antonio Guerrero, S.J., will oversee the work of the office and its employees.

Pope Francis first moved the financial records office from the competency of APSA to the Secretariat for the Economy in July 2014, a few months after he created the secretariat as part of his financial reform of the Curia.

The Secretariat for the Economy is tasked with oversight of the Vatican's administrative and financial structures and activities, including monitoring the work of APSA."

Venezuela Reportedly Files Legal Claim to Force bank of England to Transfer its Gold

In April, Venezuela, which has been struggling under a COVID-19 quarantine while crippled by US sanctions, demanded that the bank of England sell part of the gold reserves it has kept there to help fund the country's efforts to fight the pandemic.

Venezuela's central bank has filed a legal claim in a commercial court in an effort to force the bank of England to transfer £930mln ($1.13bln) of its gold, kept there, to fund the government's COVID-19 response, reported Reuters citing a document submitted in a London court.

Dated 14 May, the claim reportedly says the Venezuelan central bank "seeks an order requiring the BoE to comply with the proposed instruction".

Venezuela, which has been under coronavirus quarantine since March, hopes the gold's value will be transferred to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to subsequently be used for purchasing healthcare supplies, medicine, and food, says the outlet.

Venezuela so far has registered 749 coronavirus cases according to the Johns Hopkins University, with 10 deaths from the respiratory disease.

The government of Nicolas Maduro has been seeking to sell off some of the country's gold reserves as a means of raising funds amid the current healthcare crisis and quarantine measures it has entailed.

The situation has been compounded by plummeting global oil prices and crippling US sanctions.

"The foot-dragging by the bank of England is critically hampering Venezuela and the UN's efforts to combat COVID-19 in the country," Sarosh Zaiwalla, a London-based lawyer representing the central bank, was quoted by Reuters as saying.

There has not been any official response regarding the claim from either the bank of England or the Venezuelan central bank.

The reported legal claim comes after a request made by Nicolas Maduro's government in April to the bank of England - which acts as a gold custodian for several developing nations - to sell off some of its gold reserves there and direct the funds to the UN so they might be used to aid Venezuela's efforts to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.

The legal wrangling and has been dragging on for some time, as the bank of England has refused to transfer some 31 tonnes of Venezuelan gold to the government of Nicolas Maduro, whom the UK has refused to recognise as the country's legitimate leader since 2018, reports the outlet.

BlackRock's Biggest Credit ETF Swells to Record Amid Fed Pledge

The world's largest credit ETF has ballooned since the Federal Reserve said it will backstop the market.

Total assets in BlackRock's iShares iBoxx $ Investment Grade Corporate Bond exchange-traded fund, ticker LQD, touched a record $46.7 billion on Tuesday, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. That compares to $28.2 billion on March 19, just days before the central bank said it would purchase investment-grade corporate bonds and certain ETFs that tracked them.

The Fed's move spurred a rally in high-grade bond markets, where investors were shedding their holdings in an effort to raise cash amid dire economic data. The central bank's pledge combined with the asset class's strong fundamentals makes investment-grade bonds look appealing, according to Columbia Threadneedle's Ed Al-Hussainy.

"Investment-grade credit is particularly attractive at the moment – it captures large corporates with solid balance sheets and good access to market financing to weather this recession," said Al-Hussainy, a senior strategist at the firm. "And of course, the asset class has an explicit Fed backstop."

LQD has rallied since the Fed announced the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility on March 23, which kicked off its first purchases last week. Corporate-debt funds led the intake for fixed-income ETFs last week, with investment-grade funds posting inflows and high-yield funds seeing outflows.

The Fed's touch has also been felt in the junk-bond market, with BlackRock's iShares iBoxx High Yield Corporate Bond ETF, ticker HYG, also hitting a record size of $21.7 billion this week. U.S. policy makers expanded the bond-buying program to include recently downgraded debt last month, though the "preponderance of ETF holdings" will be concentrated in funds tracking high-grade credit.

Russia Joins Global Borrowing Boom With Record Bond Sale

Russia made the most of historically low borrowing costs to fund its stimulus plans, selling the most debt at a single auction on record.

The Finance Ministry sold 112 billion rubles of bonds due in October 2027 ($1.6 billion) at its first auction on Wednesday. Bids reached 149 billion rubles as the prospect of deeper interest-rate cuts bolstered demand, while local banks may have bought the debt to use as collateral in long-term repo auctions with the central bank. Russia is joining governments around the world in ramping up debt sales to fund coronavirus stimulus plans. With one of the lowest debt loads globally, the country has plenty of room to increase borrowing, while a recovery in crude prices has helped boost demand.

Yields on 10-year Russian government bonds traded near 5.45% on Wednesday, the lowest since records began in 2007. The ruble is at the highest level versus the dollar in two months, supported in part by inflows to the bond market.

The central bank cut interest rates by 50 basis points to 5.5% last month and has hinted at a possible percentage point of easing in June. Economists at Citibank in Moscow said last week that Russia could cut interest rates to as low as 3%.

"Venezuela's central bank has made a legal claim to try to force the bank of England to hand over ?930 million ($1.02 billion) of gold so President Nicolas Maduro's government can fund its coronavirus response, according to the document submitted in a London court.
The claim follows a request Venezuela made to the bank of England in April to sell part of its gold reserves there and send the proceeds to the United Nations to help with the country's coronavirus-fighting efforts.
Since 2018, the bank of England has delayed the transfer of 31 tonnes of Venezuelan gold stored there to Maduro, who Britain does not recognize as the country's legitimate leader.
The funds, once transferred to the United Nations Development Programme, would be used to buy healthcare equipment, medicine, and food to address Venezuela's "COVID-19 emergency," the document seen by Reuters said. "

Mnuchin, Powell face Senate hearing on CARES Act spending
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/senate-hearing-to-address-oversight-of-where-cares-act-money-is-going

The Senate banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee is holding a hearing Tuesday to review spending under the $2.2 trillion CARES Act, after a report was released detailing money meant to help businesses as well as state and local governments hurting financially as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

In a written statement ahead of the hearing, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin discussed the dire condition of the economy, claiming that the situation will improve as the country gradually reopens.

"We have had to take unprecedented steps to shut down significant parts of the economy in the interest of public health," Mnuchin said. "As a result, in the second quarter of this year, we are continuing to see large unemployment and other negative indicators. It is important to realize that the large numbers represent real people. This is why it is so important to begin bringing people back to work in a safe way."

Of the $500 billion in spending detailed by the Congressional Oversight Commission's first report on the program, $454 billion is meant to support Federal Reserve lending facilities. Mnuchin said that since March 17 he has approved nine such facilities.

The remaining $46 billion is reserved for the Treasury Department for loans to passenger and cargo air carriers, as well as companies "critical to maintaining national security," but, according to the report, none of that has been disbursed yet.

"The Treasury has received applications for these loans and is in the process of reviewing them. The Treasury has not yet made any loans to the airline industry and businesses critical to national security under these applications," the commission's report said. "The Treasury has, however, issued grants and loans to the airline industry under the Payroll Support Program under Division A, Title IV, Subtitle B of the CARES Act."

Mnuchin also noted that the government is processing $530 billion for more than 4.2 million forgivable small business loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).

Lawmakers from both parties have criticized the PPP, which has been plagued by a host of problems. Many businesses were unable to get loans before the initial funding was exhausted. A second round of loans faced computer processing delays and a number of publicly traded companies ended up receiving money that Mnuchin demanded be paid back to the government.

Mnuchin will likely come under tough questioning from senators Tuesday about the program's struggles.

Another hallmark of the CARES Act was the direct payment made to millions of individuals and families. Mnuchin said that the government has issued upwards of 140 million such payments, with the average family of four receiving $3,400.

Also testifying Tuesday is Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. In a prepared statement, Powell discussed measures already taken to support a struggling U.S. economy.

"In March, we lowered our policy interest rate to near zero, and we expect to maintain interest rates at this level until we are confident that the economy has weathered recent events and is on track to achieve our maximum-employment and price-stability goals," he cited as an example.

For his part, Powell pledged to reveal the names and other details of the entities that borrow from the emergency programs the central bank has set up to offset the economic hit from the viral outbreak.

In his prepared testimony, Powell said the central bank will disclose the amounts borrowed and the interest rates it levies under its programs to provide credit for large corporations, state and local governments, and medium-sized businesses.

"We are deeply committed to transparency, and recognize that the need for transparency is heightened when we are called upon to use our emergency powers," his testimony says.

Despite rising unemployment that has resulted in tens of millions of Americans without work, Mnuchin offered words of optimism as financial programs aim to provide economic relief while medical professionals work on therapies and a potential vaccine.

"While these are unprecedented and difficult times, these programs are making a positive impact on people," he said. Together we will destroy the COVID-19 virus, and our country will emerge from the pandemic stronger than ever."

The regulator and some lenders have discussed extending loan relief beyond a June 30 deadline for corporates hurt by the pandemic, said people familiar with the matter, asking not to be named as the talks are private. The guidance from Beijing is to offer flexibility on principal and interest payments, the people said. banks would see a surge in bad loans in the second half without such measures, weakening their ability to keep credit flowing, according to bankers and analysts.

China's $41 trillion banking system is at the forefront of propping up companies hit early this year by the local outbreak of coronavirus and the impact from its global spread. Called on to rescue the economy, lenders led by Industrial & Commercial bank of China Ltd. more than doubled loans to businesses in the first quarter, while deferring and rolling over 1.5 trillion yuan ($211 billion) in repayments.

With few signs of a swift economic recovery, a June end to the government's bad-loan holiday would crystallize the damage to bank balance sheets. Their plight is a window into the stresses emerging around the world as the economic cost of the pandemic becomes clearer, and an initial round of emergency lending and payment deferrals falls short.

"This is a global issue," said Harry Hu, a Hong Kong-based analyst at S&P Global. Many international authorities are calling for flexibility in the recognition of non-performing loans, he said. "If all of them are marked as bad loans, banks' provisions will soar and earnings will slump. Without capital accumulation, how are banks supposed to support the economy?" Chinese authorities in March let lenders delay recognizing bad loans from smaller businesses hit by the virus and allowed some borrowers to delay payments after measures to contain Covid-19 brought much of Asia's largest economy to a standstill.

That allowed the banks to report only a 0.06 percentage point increase in non-performing loan ratios to 2.04% at the end of March.

The China banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, which has made no official announcement on extended loan relief, didn't immediately respond to request seeking comment. ICBC declined to comment.

S&P estimates that the non-performing asset ratio, a more stringent measure of troubled advances that includes forborne loans, could almost double to 10% from pre-outbreak levels this year. That's a projected increase of 8 trillion yuan.

Should Covid-19 disruptions extend beyond 2021, the chances of recouping delayed payments will diminish, S&P has warned. Increased loan provisioning could weigh on profits for years to come, forcing the authorities to come to rescue as they did with at least three banks last year.

After writing off 5.8 trillion yuan of bad loans between 2017 and 2019, banks will carve out more in the next three years, according to Jason Guo, China banking sector lead partner at Deloitte & Touche LLP.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
Such concerns are, for now, swamped by the needs of an economy on track for its worst performance in four decades and the millions who have been rendered jobless. central bank Governor Yi Gang vowed in a recent interview to use policies such as loan-repayment extensions to support activity.

Deep State Actions in Italy Are the Focus of Durham's Investigation as Obama's Italian Ambassador Turns Up on List of General Flynn Unmaskers

Italy is under John Durham's radar as he continues his investigation into Obamagate. The US Attorney appointed by Attorney General Bill Barr is looking into crimes against candidate and President Trump before and after the 2016 election.

Last week a list of individuals who unmasked information related to General Mike Flynn was released by the Acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard Grenell. The list included numerous Obama Administration higher ups, including his Vice President Joe Biden, former FBI Director James Comey and Susan Rice.

The list of unmaskers also included some individuals you would never suspect of requiring the need to unmask an American citizen, including Obama's Ambassador to Italy, John R. Phillips and the Deputy Chief of Mission in Italy, Kelly Degnan.

US Embassy in Rome, headquarter of Obamagate. Centro Studi Americani, Procura di Roma and the governments of Renzi and Gentiloni, YOU ARE NEXT.

And to the most idiot Confidential Human Source in the history of the FBI, my free advice: lawyer up. 😉 pic.twitter.com/ZVBWKIPRzN

- Giulio Occhionero (@g_occhionero) May 13, 2020

Italian nuclear engineer and deep state target Giulio Occhionero pointed out the Italian connection in the release. Giulio has an interest in Obamagate since 2016.

In January 2017 Computer World wrote about alleged crimes committed by Italian Giulio Occhionero:

The Tuesday arrest of Giulio Occhionero and his sister, Francesca Maria, has brought to light what appears to be the biggest, and highest-profile, hacking of institutional and corporate accounts ever reported in Italy.

The siblings have been planting the Pyramid Eye remote access Trojan on computers using a spear-phishing technique over several years, according to the arrest order.

They attacked at least 18,000 high-profile targets, including former Prime Ministers Matteo Renzi and Mario Monti, President of European central bank Mario Draghi, as well as employees and heads of various ministries including Internal Affairs, Treasury, Finance and Education.

But Occhionero claimed that he and his sister, Francesca Maria, were set up. A piece reported by Frederico Punzi, writing in The Atlantico, noted their denials and more:

Occhionero complained to the Prosecutor of the Republic of Perugia and wrote to the U.S. Congress and the FBI. In fact, there are a number of contradictions and suspicious circumstances in the case.

Serious question not a troll or shill

After all Q did say think for yourself

If Q is against the deep state, why the "Free Iran!" post?

Its fact that the deep state business interests are after Iran to install a central bank and go after the oil, as the Clowns did in 1953 when they installed the shah.

So why dont we just leave them alone to make their own country? Do we really need to impose our American values on them by force?

Second point: Snowden

If Snowden is deep state Clown, why continue to give realistic privacy tips? Why not just shut up after the dump and disappear?

Third point: NSA spying

Why do Q's posts seem to support NSA spying on an illegal and complete level? Even if the deep state is taken out, do.we really want the NSA spying on everything we do at all times without a goddamn warrant?

Final point: False predictions

So many of Q's posts have been proven true and or prophetic, but what of the few that were completely wrong? Trust Sessions, Clinton passport flagged, etc.

Ive been taken for a ride with false hope before, and WWG1WGA should be able to withstand these critiques

Khazarian Jews Kicked Out of Russia

Ben Fulford 1/20/20:
Basically, David Rothschild was kicked out and the Russian central bank was nationalized, which is why half the government was fired, FSB sources tell us.
Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."
https://tass.com/top-officials/1043741

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanuel Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week. A first cousin of former Emperor Hirohito tells us the bank of Japan has been nationalized and the Rothschilds as well as the Rockefellers have been removed from control of this country.

Fed's Powell says full economic recovery may require coronavirus vaccine

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said a U.S. economic recovery may stretch deep into next year and a full comeback may depend on a coronavirus vaccine.

"This economy will recover. It may take a while … It could stretch through the end of next year. We really don't know," Powell said in remarks aired on CBS's "Face the Nation" as part of a longer prerecorded interview to be broadcast Sunday night on the network's "60 Minutes" news show.

"Assuming there is not a second wave of the coronavirus, I think you will see the economy recover steadily through the second half of this year. For the economy to fully recover people will have to be fully confident and that may have to await the arrival of a vaccine."

The Fed has approved a suite of programs to help businesses and financial markets continue functioning during the pandemic, and to try to limit the failure of firms and families during the fight against the virus.

Fed chairs use interviews on national television networks sparingly, but the 60 Minutes interview this evening will be his second since the U.S. central bank began putting its financial power behind the virus fight.

Fed says around 600 smaller banks tapped PPP facility in its first days

Around 600 banks, most of them small community institutions, tapped the Federal Reserve's Paycheck Protection Program facility for about $30 billion of loans as of May 6, the U.S. central bank reported on Saturday in its first detailed disclosure under the new program.

The lenders used 3,676 PPP loans they had issued to small businesses as collateral for money from the central bank's PPP program, clearing room on their own balance sheet for further lending. The Fed said it had collected $2.5 million in interest and fees for the transactions so far.

The $30 billion involved is a fraction of the roughly $530 billion issued through the Paycheck Protection Program. The PPP is one of the core programs set up by the federal government to keep the economy stable during the coronavirus pandemic. It offers loans to small businesses which are forgiven if they are used to pay workers' wages and some other allowed expenses.

The Fed program was set up to encourage banks to participate, allowing those who choose to do so a way to make the loans to businesses and collect a fee for doing so, then borrow a similar amount from the Fed at a nominal interest rate of 0.35%. Participation so far, however, shows it being used mostly by smaller institutions. Half of the firms used five or fewer loans in transactions with the Fed.

The group of firms also include some non-banks that were allowed by the Fed to participate in order to further encourage small business lending.

George Soros: We're now in 'revolutionary moment' that allows us to achieve the 'inconceivable'

In a new interview, the left-wing billionaire called the coronavirus pandemic 'the crisis of my lifetime.'

Left-wing billionaire George Soros has indicated that the coronavirus pandemic paves the way for societal changes previously thought impossible, calling it "the crisis of my lifetime." Soros had lived through the Second World War as a youth.

"Even before the pandemic hit, I realized that we were in a revolutionary moment where what would be impossible or even inconceivable in normal times had become not only possible, but probably absolutely necessary," he said during an interview on May 11.

Soros also said that "Europe is facing several existential dangers."

He was "particularly concerned about the survival of the EU because it is an incomplete union." While, according to the Hungarian-born billionaire, the European Union was "in the process of being created," that process "was never completed."

Thus, Soros said the EU was "exceptionally vulnerable - more vulnerable than the US not just because it is an incomplete union but also because it is based on the rule of law."

Soros also commented on a recent conflict between Germany and the EU. Germany's highest court had ruled on May 5 that one of the EU's Court of Justice decisions regarding policies of the European central bank (ECB) was not legally binding. In turn, the European Court of Justice asserted that it alone had jurisdiction over the ECB.

In the interview, Soros sided with the EU. "When Germany joined the EU, it committed itself to abide by European law," he argued.

He voiced his fears that countries like Poland or Hungary might become more independent of the EU, if also "the German court can question the decisions of the European Court of Justice."

Soros asked, "Can Hungary and Poland decide whether they follow European law or their own courts - whose legitimacy the EU has questioned? That question goes to the very heart of the EU, which is built on the rule of law."

"Poland has immediately risen to the occasion and asserted the supremacy of its government-controlled courts over European law. In Hungary, Viktor Orbán has already used the COVID-19 emergency and a captured parliament to appoint himself dictator," Soros claimed.

The last election took place in 2018, and the next one is scheduled for 2020.

Additionally, a new poll has shown that the majority of Hungarians (54 percent) seem to support the measures of the Orbán administration and would vote for him.

"The ruling poses a threat that could destroy the European Union as an institution based on the rule of law, precisely because it was delivered by the German constitutional court, which is the most highly respected institution in Germany," Soros emphasized.

In the course of the interview, Soros again talked about his idea of having the EU issue perpetual bonds, which he called Consols. With the money created through Consols, he would finance the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as climate change.

"European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says that Europe needs about ?1 trillion ($1.1 trillion) to fight this pandemic, and she should have added another ?1 trillion for climate change," according to Soros.

BlackRock Begins Buying Junk Bond ETFs for the Fed Today: It's Already at Work for the central bank of Israel

It's off to the races today for BlackRock. The New York Fed, with authority from the Federal Reserve Board and backstopped with taxpayers' money, will begin the first phase of the Fed's unprecedented leap into shoring up the sagging prices of investment grade corporate debt and junk bonds. BlackRock has been selected by the New York Fed to be the investment manager for these bailout facilities and will begin Phase I today by buying up Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) containing investment grade corporate bonds as well as junk bonds. Making the situation particularly dicey is that BlackRock just happens to be one of the largest purveyors of said ETFs.

The screaming conflict-of-interest that this raises in the minds of many is not ruffling any feathers at the New York Fed (which is itself a bundle of conflicts wrapped in a fraud monetization spigot that creates money out of thin air.) The New York Fed has swiftly dismissed this problem with the following language in its Investment Management Agreement with BlackRock:

"The Manager shall treat BlackRock-sponsored ETFs on the same neutral footing as ETFs sponsored by other entities...If the holdings of BlackRock-sponsored ETFs by the Company at any time exceeds or is expected to exceed the then-current market share of BlackRock-sponsored ETFs in the corporate bond ETF market on average (calculated with reference to the most recently ended calendar month), the Manager will notify the Company and consult with the FRBNY, as managing member of the Company, to review the holdings of the Company and implement such adjustments as the FRBNY may direct."

The New York Fed's answer to teetering highly-leveraged corporate debt is to set up a highly-leveraged bailout facility run by Wall Street insider, BlackRock, which is also managing U.S. securities purchases for the central bank of Israel.

Fed Buys $305 Million of ETFs at Start of Historic Program

The Federal Reserve bought $305 million of exchange-traded funds in the first two days of its historic intervention into U.S. corporate debt markets, according to data published Thursday.

The figures were revealed in the central bank's weekly balance sheet update, which also showed that total assets rose to a new record of $6.93 trillion in the week through May 13. The ETF purchases are part of the latest emergency lending program the Fed has rolled out to help cushion the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the U.S. economy and financial markets. First announced on March 23, the so-called Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility has been credited by investors and policy makers alike with having a major calming influence on markets, even well before it officially launched on Tuesday. Under the program, the Fed plans to make both outright purchases of corporate bonds as well as ETFs invested in the asset class, including potentially some sub-investment grade debt.

While the weekly balance sheet data did not disclose which ETFs the Fed bought, the central bank has said it will disclose the names of borrowers participating in the program at least once a month.

Fed Chair Powell's 'Solution' Is The Root Of The Problem

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell went negative in a webcast speech on Wednesday, May 13.

I'm not talking about negative interest rates, although that could be coming down the pike as well. Powell went negative on the prospects of a quick economic recovery.

He's right about the prospects for the economy, but he's wrong about the solution. That's because he doesn't even realize it's Fed policy at the root of the problem to begin with.

A lot of pundits and politicians have assumed that the economy will just snap back to normal once governments open things back up. Powell dumped cold water on that notion warning that the US could face a "deep, prolonged" recession. He said, "The scope and speed of this downturn are without modern precedent, significantly worse than any recession since World War II."

We are seeing a severe decline in economic activity and in employment, and already the job gains of the past decade have been erased. Since the pandemic arrived in force just two months ago, more than 20 million people have lost their jobs. A Fed survey being released tomorrow reflects findings similar to many others: Among people who were working in February, almost 40 percent of those in households making less than $40,000 a year had lost a job in March. This reversal of economic fortune has caused a level of pain that is hard to capture in words, as lives are upended amid great uncertainty about the future."

Powell warned, that "the path ahead is both highly uncertain and subject to significant downside risks." He added that "A prolonged recession and weak recovery could also discourage business investment and expansion, further limiting the resurgence of jobs as well as the growth of capital stock and the pace of technological advancement. The result could be an extended period of low productivity growth and stagnant incomes."

He's right about all that. But he got just about everything else in his speech wrong.

After painting a gloomy picture, Powell called for more government spending and more extreme monetary policy.

We ought to do what we can to avoid these outcomes, and that may require additional policy measures."

Powell promised that the Fed will "continue to use our tools to their fullest until the crisis has passed and the economic recovery is well underway," but emphasized there is only so much the central bank can do. He practically begged Congress to borrow and spend more money.

Additional fiscal support could be costly, but worth it if it helps avoid long-term economic damage and leaves us with a stronger recovery. This tradeoff is one for our elected representatives, who wield powers of taxation and spending."

It was a war against centralized bankers to wrest back control of the United States' money supply. The bastards marched on Washington and Almighty God sent storms to destroy them in the evacuated capitol. Jackson defeated the central bank and routed out the vipers, but ultimately the central bankers won since their vision was accomplished and the US failed to retain financial sovereignty.
Trump credits Jackson as being one of his role models and heroes.

Fed chairman asks Congress to consider more stimulus

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Wednesday urged Congress to consider another ambitious fiscal rescue package, warning that the economy may need further support to avoid a cycle of business failures, job losses and bankruptcies well after the pandemic passes.

In a Wednesday speech, Powell said the U.S. could suffer serious long-term economic damage from the coronavirus pandemic and called on policymakers to do whatever they can to foster a strong recovery-regardless of the cost.

"The recovery may take some time to gather momentum, and the passage of time can turn liquidity problems into solvency problems," he said during remarks before an interview with the Peterson Institute for International Economics.

"Additional fiscal support could be costly, but worth it if it helps avoid long-term economic damage and leaves us with a stronger recovery," he continued. "This trade-off is one for our elected representatives, who wield powers of taxation and spending."

Powell's latest call for fiscal stimulus comes as Republican lawmakers grow increasingly wary of adding to the roughly $3 trillion already spent by Congress to support the economy. House Democrats on Tuesday proposed another massive $3 trillion economic rescue and COVID-19 response package that Republicans promptly declared dead on arrival.

Powell's Wednesday comments may add to the growing pressure on by rank-and-file Republicans to extend a counteroffer to Democrats after GOP leaders declared a pause on formal bipartisan negotiations.

While the Fed chair praised Congress for the size and depth of its response so far, he warned that further spending may be necessary to stave off "an extended period of low productivity growth and stagnant incomes."

"There is a growing sense that the recovery may come more slowly than we would like, but it will come. And that may mean that it's necessary for us to do more," Powell said during the interview following his remarks.

"We know that long periods of unemployment leave a shadow over the labor force and over our economy, over people's lives en masse. We also know that waves of bankruptcies can weigh on economic activity for years," he continued.

Powell, a Republican seen as moderate, had pleaded with Congress to cut deficits during the economic boom that preceded the crisis. But with the economy cratering as COVID-19 spreads through the U.S., the Fed chair has urged fiscal hawks to temporarily set aside concerns about the mounting debt.

"When the economy is strong and unemployment is low, that's the time to be addressing those concerns. I think now, when we are facing the biggest shock that the economy has had in modern times, is, to me, not the time to prioritize considerations like that," Powell said Wednesday.

He and central bank colleagues have also consistently warned that the steep interest rate cuts and trillions in loans and asset purchases deployed by the Fed will not be enough to support the economy alone.

The U.S. economy has lost at least 21.4 million jobs since mid-March as thousands of businesses lay off workers in the face of bankruptcy, according to data released by the Labor Department last week. The unemployment rate in April spiked to 14.7 percent, the highest since the Great Depression, and Powell warned Wednesday that it is likely to peak "over the next month or so."
Powell also said that 40 percent of those in U.S. households earning less than $40,000 a year lost their jobs in March, citing results from a Fed survey to be released Thursday.

"While we are all affected, the burden has fallen most heavily on those least able to bear it," Powell said.

President Trump on Wednesday praised Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell as the "most improved player" in the administration, a reflection of how far the president has come around on Powell after arguing last year he had the power to fire him.

"He has done a very good job over the last couple of months, I have to tell you that," Trump told reporters during a meeting with the governors of Colorado and North Dakota. "Because I have been critical, but in many ways I call him my 'MIP.' Do you know what an MIP is? Most improved player. It's called the Most Improved Player award."

The president said he still is at odds with Powell over his stance on negative interest rates. Trump has for months pushed negative interest rates, arguing the U.S. is on an unfair playing field if other countries have negative rates.

Trump hammered Powell relentlessly last year to cut interest rates, and he has shifted to offering praise after the central bank took drastic action amid the pandemic-induced downturn.
The Federal Reserve in March slashed interest rates to zero percent and purchased $700 billion in bonds and securities to stabilize financial markets and support the economy.

The Fed announced in April it will finance more than $2 trillion in emergency loans using the $464 billion in credit protection allotted by the CARES Act.

Powell and his central bank colleagues have also consistently warned that the steep interest rate cuts and trillions in loans and asset purchases deployed by the Fed will not be enough to support the economy alone.

JPMorgan, Citi Left Out as Fed Began Historic Debt ETF Rescue

The two largest U.S. bond-trading firms were caught off guard as the Federal Reserve began its most unusual action yet to prop up global markets.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. didn't make the list of dealers trading with the Fed as it embarked on a historic purchase of exchange-traded funds backed by company debt. Though the Fed unveiled its plans in March, its push over the last week to get the facility up and running left many scrambling and the pair of giant firms still sorting through paperwork as it kicked off, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

While there's no sign the delays hobbled the program at its launch Tuesday, as about 10 firms were on board, the absence of titans such as JPMorgan and Citigroup quickly raised eyebrows among market participants and added to intrigue around the unprecedented intervention. The Fed's announcement of the program two months ago stunned Wall Street and set off a rally that some in the market thought would be enough to stabilize prices and head off dysfunction. That, in turn, fueled speculation the central bank might not have to make actual purchases.

Those perceptions changed last week, when the Fed announced it would soon begin buying ETFs and rolled out requirements for dealers to join the program. The ensuing struggle by some firms to complete internal sign-offs on time underscores the unscripted nature of the Fed's rescue efforts.

Federal agencies have been enacting numerous programs to help cushion the blow to the U.S. economy from the coronavirus pandemic. Some of Wall Street's most sophisticated risk and legal departments have proceeded cautiously, hoping to avoid running afoul of rules for the programs and risking punishment.

Representatives for JPMorgan and Citigroup declined to comment, and a representative for the Fed didn't immediately have a comment. The two banks were still working on Wednesday toward getting the right certifications in place to meet the Fed's requirements and expect to be a part of the transactions soon, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing information that isn't public.

GPS: Autocratic?

SOROS: Right. That makes everything much harder. There are a lot of people who say that we should be working very closely with China, but I am not in favor of doing that. We must protect our democratic open society. At the same time, we must find a way to cooperate on fighting climate change and the novel coronavirus. That won't be easy. I sympathize with the Chinese people, because they are under the domination of a dictator, President Xi Jinping. I think a lot of educated Chinese are very resentful of that, and the general public is still very angry with him for keeping COVID-19 a secret until after the Chinese New Year.

GPS: Could Xi's grip on power weaken as the Chinese come to recognize that the handling of the crisis was sub-optimal?

SOROS: Very much so. When Xi abolished term limits and named himself, in essence, president for life, he destroyed the political future of the most important and ambitious men in a very narrow and competitive elite. It was a big mistake on his part. So, yes, he is very strong in a way, but at the same time extremely weak, and now perhaps vulnerable.

The struggle within the Chinese leadership is something that I follow very closely because I am on the side of those who believe in an open society. And there are many people in China who are very much in favor of an open society, too.

GPS: Then again, the current US president does not really represent the values of an open and free society...

SOROS: Well, that is a weakness that I hope will not last very long. Donald Trump would like to be a dictator. But he cannot be one because there is a constitution in the United States that people still respect. And it will prevent him from doing certain things. That does not mean that he will not try, because he is literally fighting for his life. I will also say that I have put my faith in Trump to destroy himself, and he has exceeded my wildest expectations.

GPS: What role does the European Union - your home that you care about so much - play in this power struggle?

SOROS: I am particularly concerned about the survival of the EU because it is an incomplete union. It was in the process of being created. But the process was never completed and that makes Europe exceptionally vulnerable - more vulnerable than the US not just because it is an incomplete union but also because it is based on the rule of law. And the wheels of justice move very slowly, while threats such as the COVID-19 virus move very fast. That creates a particular problem for the European Union.

GPS: Germany's Federal Constitutional Court exploded a bombshell last week with its latest ruling on the European central bank. How seriously do you take it?

SOROS: I take it extremely seriously. The ruling poses a threat that could destroy the European Union as an institution based on the rule of law, precisely because it was delivered by the German constitutional court, which is the most highly respected institution in Germany. Before it delivered its verdict, it had consulted with the European Court of Justice and then decided to challenge it. So you now have a conflict between the German Constitutional Court and the European Court of Justice. Which court has precedence?

GPS: Technically, the European Treaties give the ECJ supremacy in this area. That is very clear.

SOROS: Right. When Germany joined the EU, it committed itself to abide by European law. But the ruling raises an even bigger issue: if the German court can question the decisions of the European Court of Justice, can other countries follow its example? Can Hungary and Poland decide whether they follow European law or their own courts - whose legitimacy the EU has questioned? That question goes to the very heart of the EU, which is built on the rule of law.

Poland has immediately risen to the occasion and asserted the supremacy of its government-controlled courts over European law. In Hungary, Viktor Orbán has already used the COVID-19 emergency and a captured parliament to appoint himself dictator. The parliament is kept in session to rubber-stamp his decrees, which clearly violate European law. If the German court's verdict prevents the EU from resisting these developments, it will be the end of the EU as we know it.

More than 300 lawmakers urge IMF, World bank to cancel poor countries' debt

Over 300 lawmakers from around the world on Wednesday urged the International Monetary Fund and World bank to cancel the debt of the poorest countries in response to the coronavirus pandemic, and to boost funding to avert a global economic meltdown. The initiative, led by former U.S. presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Ilham Omar, a Democrat from Minnesota, comes amid growing concern that developing countries and emerging economies will be devastated by the pandemic. Widespread shutdowns aimed at containing the virus are taking a huge toll on the global economy, and especially poor countries with weak health systems, high debt levels and few resources to manage the dual health and economic crises.

IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva on Tuesday said the Fund was "very likely" to revise downward its forecast that global output would shrink by 3% in 2020, and said developing countries would need more than $2.5 trillion in financing to weather the storm.

Sanders said poor countries needed every cent to care for their people, instead of servicing the "unsustainable debts" they owe to the large international financial institutions.

Cancelling the debt of the poorest countries was "the very least that the World bank, IMF and other international financial institutions should do to prevent an unimaginable increase in poverty, hunger, and disease that threatens hundreds of millions of people," he said.

The lawmakers welcomed a move by the IMF to cover the debt service payments of 25 of the poorest countries for six months, but said further efforts were needed. The World bank has said it will look at ways to expand its support for the poorest countries, but warned waiving debt payments could harm its credit rating and undercut its ability to provide low-cost funding to members.

In the letter, parliamentarians from two dozen countries on all six continents, said debt service obligations of the poorest countries should be cancelled outright, instead of simply suspended, as agreed by the Group of 20 countries in April. Failing to do so meant those countries would not be able to prioritize spending needed to fight the virus, which in turn could lead to continued disruption to global supply chains and financial markets, they wrote.

The lawmakers also urged the IMF's Georgieva and World bank President David Malpass to support creation of trillions of dollars of new Special Drawing Rights, the currency of the IMF. "An issuance of SDRs on the order of trillions of dollars will be required to avert major increases in poverty, hunger and disease," wrote the lawmakers, who span a wide range of political affiliations and include former heads of state.

An SDR allocation is akin to a central bank "printing" new money and does not trigger big costs, but has been opposed by the United States, the IMF's largest shareholder. Omar said the United States should lead the effort to provide relief to the most vulnerable nations. "All our destinies are linked. If we turn a blind eye to the suffering of people abroad, it will eventually harm us," Omar said.

Other signatories include former British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and Argentine lawmaker Carlos Menem, who enacted austerity measures when he served as president in the 1980s and 1990s.

BlackRock Begins Buying Junk Bond ETFs for the Fed Today: It's Already at Work for the central bank of Israel

It's off to the races today for BlackRock. The New York Fed, with authority from the Federal Reserve Board and backstopped with taxpayers' money, will begin the first phase of the Fed's unprecedented leap into shoring up the sagging prices of investment grade corporate debt and junk bonds. BlackRock has been selected by the New York Fed to be the investment manager for these bailout facilities and will begin Phase I today by buying up Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) containing investment grade corporate bonds as well as junk bonds. Making the situation particularly dicey is that BlackRock just happens to be one of the largest purveyors of said ETFs.

The screaming conflict-of-interest that this raises in the minds of many is not ruffling any feathers at the New York Fed (which is itself a bundle of conflicts wrapped in a fraud monetization spigot that creates money out of thin air.) The New York Fed has swiftly dismissed this problem with the following language in its Investment Management Agreement with BlackRock:

"The Manager shall treat BlackRock-sponsored ETFs on the same neutral footing as ETFs sponsored by other entities...If the holdings of BlackRock-sponsored ETFs by the Company at any time exceeds or is expected to exceed the then-current market share of BlackRock-sponsored ETFs in the corporate bond ETF market on average (calculated with reference to the most recently ended calendar month), the Manager will notify the Company and consult with the FRBNY, as managing member of the Company, to review the holdings of the Company and implement such adjustments as the FRBNY may direct."

The New York Fed's answer to teetering highly-leveraged corporate debt is to set up a highly-leveraged bailout facility run by Wall Street insider, BlackRock, which is also managing U.S. securities purchases for the central bank of Israel.

The stimulus bill known as the CARES Act allocated $454 billion of taxpayers' money to effectively bail out all of the New York Fed's bad supervisory decisions over the past decade. The $454 billion has been designated as "loss absorbing capital" to soak up the first 10 to 25 percent of losses in the Fed's alphabet soup list of bailout facilities. The New York Fed will use $75 billion of the $454 billion for its two corporate bond buying programs, the Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility and the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility. Those programs will be leveraged by an approximate factor of 10 to 1 to create $750 in corporate bond bailouts. Given the size of the corporate bond problem, we strongly suspect that's just the beginning.

PBOC To Cut Rates Next: China CPI Huge Miss, PPI Prints At 4 Year Low

Heading into today's Chinese inflation print, the bond market was sending a mixed message: while consensus expected that China's economy would be hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, the yield on China's government bonds climbed to the highest level in nearly two months, suggesting either the worst from the deflationary drag was now behind China, or was the result of expectations for a large supply increase later this month. In retrospect, it was the former, because moments ago China's NBS reported that in April, CPI rose just 3.3%, sliding 1% from March and not only a huge miss to consensus of 3.7%, but missing the lowest estimate (the range was 3.4% to 4.3%). This was the lowest print since September 2019 when China was suffering from an acute surge in food prices driven by pork hyperinflation (the result of another virus).

The bulk of the miss was due to a drop in food inflation, which dropped from 18.3%YoY to 14.8% vs March (a -3%MoM decline), with pork prices falling 7.6% as supply continues to come to market just as demand is fleeing said market. There was also weakness in transportation and recreation segments, reflecting subdued activity despite China's bombastic reopening.

Meanwhile, factory gate prices, or Producer Price Inflation a proxy for corporate profits, plunged deeper into the red, sliding to -3.1%, more than double the March decline of -1.5%, missing consensus estimate of a -2.5% drop, and the lowest print since April 2016. And since PPI is a close proxy for industrial profits which as discussed recently are in freefall, it is very likely that we will witness a record low PPI print as soon as next month. And while China's accelerating disinflation is bad news not only for the country but also the entire world, as China was critical during the last financial crisis do unleash a global reflationary wave across the globe, the fact that China is also succumbing to lower prices has very adverse consequences for global growth.

There is a silver lining: as we wrote earlier today when looking at China's credit creation, the elevated CPI inflation in recent months had been an unfavorable factor for monetary policy (even though it has largely been due to virus shock impacts such as supply shock to food). However, as the PBOC noted over the weekend in its quarterly monetary policy report - in which it reaffirmed its expansionary stance by promising stronger monetary policy action ahead - CPI inflation has started to go downward, and inflation expectations are currently stable.

As a result, with inflation now sliding fast the biggest hurdle before the PBOC for a wholesale rate cut is now gone, and instead of using a targeted approach to injecting liquidity in the system via new yuan loans, local bond issuance and the occasional RRR cut, the central bank will very soon enter the comfort zone where it too follows the rest of the world in cutting rates sharply lower in hopes of stimulating the economy.

Fed says it will start buying corporate-bond ETFs on Tuesday

The Federal Reserve's new lending facility will begin purchasing corporate bond exchange-traded funds on Tuesday, the New York Fed announced Monday evening. The Fed said most of the purchases would be in exchange-traded funds with exposure to U.S. investment-grade corporate bonds, but some of the purchases will be of ETFs whose primary exposure is to U.S. high-yield corporate bonds. The Fed said it will soon start purchasing debt issued by companies directly. Analysts said the Fed's announcement of the lending program in early April was enough to arrest turmoil in corporate bond trading and has allowed businesses like Boeing to issue debt. The New York Fed said the U.S. Treasury Department had made $37.5 billion of the $75 billion equity investment it will make in the special purpose vehicle established by the central bank to undertake the primary- and secondary-market credit facilities. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said earlier Monday he had sent the Fed money for the program.

The "preponderance of ETF holdings" will consist of those mainly exposed to U.S. investment-grade corporate bonds, with the remainder largely exposed to U.S. high-yield corporate bonds, the New York Fed announcement said.

Other factors being considered for eligible ETFs include the composition of investment-grade and non-investment-grade rated debt, the management style and the amount of debt held in depository institutions.

Blackrock Agreement

The reserve bank also posted to its website the investment management agreement with BlackRock, the asset-management giant it's retained to administer the program. The document offered more information on the strategy the Fed would pursue.

Corporate-debt buying, including via ETFs, will occur in three stages, according to the agreement: a "stabilization" phase, an "ongoing monitoring" phase, and a "reduction in support" phase.

"Purchases will be focused on reducing the broad-based deterioration of liquidity seen in March 2020 to levels that correspond more closely to prevailing economic conditions," the document said. It listed an array of metrics that would guide investments, including transaction costs, bid-ask spreads, credit spreads, volatility and "qualitative market color."

"Once market functioning measures return to levels that are more closely, but not fully, aligned with levels that correspond to prevailing economic conditions, broad-based purchases will continue at a reduced, steady pace to maintain these conditions," the document said.

The corporate credit facilities are among the nine emergency lending programs the Fed is rolling out to help cushion the blow to the U.S. economy from the pandemic and keep credit flowing. They mark a dramatic escalation of the central bank's interventions in financial markets by stepping into corporate debt potentially including the purchase of some sub-investment grade securities for the first time since the 1950s.

More information on corporate bond purchases by the secondary and primary facilities is "forthcoming," the New York Fed announcement said.

Told you they would do the currency swaps and then this. It begins tomorrow. The High yield debt is EXACTLY the same shit they produced and pumped into the market starting in 2012 with the $29t stealth bailout. Cap#2 is when it started in late 2012 and the sole reason the markets got to where they were at-they never should have been at that level because it is solely becuase of that prin. This is the shit they will buy and place at muhFRBNY-and there is ALOT of it. BlackRock virtually invented the ETF market through it's iShares brand of them. Is it any wonder they were hired to "advise" the FRBNY on how to do this? No it's not.

Meet the Fed's Global Plunge Protection Team

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 455 points by the closing bell on Friday. It seemed sadistic to average folks. One hour before the stock market opened, the Bureau of Labor Statistics had reported the worst U.S. unemployment figure since the Great Depression (14.7 percent) along with the staggering loss of 20.5 million jobs in just the month of April. Within the first half hour of trading, the Dow was up more than 300 points. It then added to those gains in afternoon trading.

None of the explanations offered by mainstream media to explain the incongruous stock trading were accurate. It was not because the stock market had anticipated worse or that the market was rallying because it thought the worst of the economic fallout was behind us. It was because the one emergency funding facility that the Federal Reserve has quietly ramped up more than any other, its Foreign central bank Liquidity Swap Lines, was working its magic on Friday.

To understand what happened on Friday, you need to understand what Fed Chair Jerome Powell was methodically setting in place in February.

Beginning on February 3, Powell started dialing the head of one central bank after another. We know this because his daily calendars are made public. Before the month of February was over, Powell had spoken to, or met with, the heads of 14 different foreign central banks. This was an unprecedented number of central bank contacts in such a short period of time for a man telling Americans everything was fine with our banks and our financial system.

Equally curious, it wasn't just the biggest players that Powell spoke to, like Christine Lagarde, President of the European central bank (ECB); Haruhiko Kuroda, Governor of the bank of Japan; Mark Carney, then Governor of the bank of England; and Yi Gang, Governor of The People's bank of China. Powell also dialed up the heads of the following central banks: Canada, Netherlands, Brazil, Mexico, South Korea, India, Switzerland, Belgium, Sweden and France. All in one month.

Two weeks after the last phone calls were made in February, the Fed sprang into action.

On March 15, the Fed announced that foreign central banks with regular U.S. dollar liquidity operations would "begin offering U.S. dollars weekly in each jurisdiction with an 84-day maturity, in addition to the 1-week maturity operations currently offered."

On March 19, the Fed announced that on top of its standing U.S. dollar liquidity swap lines with the bank of Canada, the bank of England, the bank of Japan, the European central bank, and the Swiss National bank, it would be opening up "U.S. dollar liquidity arrangements (swap lines) with the Reserve bank of Australia, the Banco central do Brasil, the Danmarks Nationalbank (Denmark), the bank of Korea, the Banco de Mexico, the Norges bank (Norway), the Reserve bank of New Zealand, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and the Sveriges Riksbank (Sweden)."

On March 20, the Fed announced that itself along with the bank of Canada, the bank of England, the bank of Japan, the European central bank, and the Swiss National bank would be increasing the frequency of its 7-day swap line offerings from weekly to daily.

As the chart above indicates, the outstanding swap lines on the Fed's balance sheet have grown from $45 billion on March 18 to $348.5 billion by April 1 and now stand, as of last Wednesday's H.4.1 report from the Fed, at a stunning $444.89 billion.

That is the largest of the Fed's emergency programs by a factor of more than two to one. Its repo loans have an outstanding balance of $172.7 billion. Its Discount Window loans stand at $26.5 billion. Its Primary Dealer Credit Facility (PDCF) loans (where it is accepting stocks and Wall Street toxic waste known as CDOs and CLOs as collateral from the trading houses on Wall Street in return for ¼-percent interest loans) stands at $14.9 billion. Its Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility has racked up $42.8 billion. The Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility, where it buys the small business loans the banks have made (that were already guaranteed by the Small Business Administration) stands at $29.1 billion. The Fed's Commercial Paper Funding Facility stands at $3.9 billion.

The Fed's announced purchases of investment grade corporate bonds, junk bonds and junk bond Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which have set an initial goal of scooping up $750 billion in sinking paper, have yet to invest a dime; likely because the legality of those programs are still being debated.

Saudi Arabia triples VAT to support chinavirus-hit economy

Saudi Arabia is tripling its value added tax (VAT) as part of austerity measures to support its chinavirus-hit economy. The government in Riyadh also said it will suspend its cost of living allowance to shore up state finances. The oil-rich nation has seen its income plummet as the impact of the pandemic has forced down global energy prices.

The kingdom first introduced VAT two years ago as part of efforts to cut its reliance on world energy markets. Saudi Arabia's state news agency said VAT will increase from 5% to 15% as of 1 July, while the cost of living allowance will be suspended from 1 June.

"These measures are painful but necessary to maintain financial and economic stability over [the] medium to long term… and overcome the unprecedented chinavirus crisis with the least damage possible," finance minister Mohammed al-Jadaan said in the statement. The announcement came after state spending outstripped income, pushing the kingdom into a $9bn (£7.2bn) budget deficit in the first three months of the year.

That's as oil revenues in the period fell by almost a quarter from a year earlier to $34bn, pulling down total revenues by 22%.

At the same time Saudi Arabia's central bank saw its foreign reserves fall in March at their fastest rate in at least two decades and to their lowest level since 2011.

The measures to fight the spread of chinavirus are expected to slow the pace and scale of economic reforms launched by Crown Price Mohammed bin Salman. Last year Saudi Arabia raised a record $25.6bn in the initial public offering of shares in state-owned oil giant Aramco in Riyadh.

The share sale was at the heart of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's plans to modernize the economy and wean it off its dependence on oil.

China central bank signals more policy measures to support virus-ravaged economy

China's central bank said on Sunday it will step up counter-cyclical adjustments to support the economy and make monetary policy more flexible to fend off financial risks. The first-quarter monetary policy implementation report from the People's bank of China (PBOC) did not repeat the central bank's long-standing vow to refrain from "flood-like" stimulus to support growth, reinforcing signs of more policy measures. China's long-term stable economic trend remains unchanged, despite the coronavirus outbreak, the central bank said.

"But at present, challenges faced by China's economic development are unprecedented, we must fully consider difficulties, risks and uncertainties," it said. The bank said it will keep liquidity ample, using both aggregate and structural policy measures, and continue to deepen interest rate reforms to help lower borrowing costs and allocate financial resources more efficiently in the economy.

The central bank will also support the real economy, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, it said. "We should properly handle the relationship between stabilizing growth, ensuring employment, adjusting structure, preventing risks and controlling inflation," the PBOC said.

China's economy contracted 6.8% in the first quarter from a year earlier, shrinking for the first time since at least 1992, as the coronavirus outbreak paralysed production and spending, raising pressure on authorities to do more to stop mounting job losses. The PBOC has already rolled out a raft of easing steps since early February, including cuts in reserve requirements and lending rates and targeted lending support for virus-hit firms.

The central bank will continue to deepen the reform of the loan prime rate (LPR) regime and improve the monetary policy transmission mechanism to help lower borrowing costs, it said.

In August 2019, PBOC overhauled the benchmark lending rate mechanism by using the market-driven LPR to replace the previous benchmark bank lending rate. It will keep growth of M2 and social financing in line with and slightly higher than nominal GDP growth, it said.

It will deepen foreign exchange market reform, maintain yuan flexibility and keep the yuan basically stable, it said.

Right….a contingency

bank of Canada to create its own digital currency as 'contingency,' deputy says

The country's central bank plans to lay the foundation for its own digital currency as a backstop should the day arise where cash is no longer king, a bank of Canada deputy says.

In a speech in Montreal, deputy governor Timothy Lane said there isn't a compelling case to issue a central bank-backed digital currency right now.

But the timeline to create one is long enough that the bank of Canada is beginning work in the event the Canadian dollar isn't used for most transactions.

Lane said Tuesday that such as situation could erode competition in the financial services sector and consumer privacy, as well as exclude marginalized populations from fully participating in the economy.

He added the bank could issue its own cryptocurrency if private digital currencies or those offered by other central banks become widely used in Canada and erode the bank of Canada's ability to manage monetary policy.

There are still several steps to go through before the bank of Canada can issue a digital offering, including settling on the technology to use and getting the legal authority from Parliament to do so.

"It is clear that technology is changing the world around us. And while we cannot perfectly predict the future, we can certainly plan for contingencies," said Lane, based on a text of his speech released in Ottawa.

"This includes readying ourselves in case a decision is made some day to issue a bank of Canada digital currency."

The bank of Canada has spent six-plus years researching the economic and technological impacts of the growth of volatile digital currencies like Bitcoin, and more recently watched the growth of "stablecoins" that maintain a stable value, as the name implies, and are backed by currency holdings.

Lane says these stablecoins of which there are about 150 worldwide have a better prospect for widespread adoption, including Facebook's proposed Libra that the social media giant plans to launch. And that could in turn make it more difficult for the bank to hit its inflation targets.

"It would become increasingly difficult to control the stability of the purchasing power of the Canadian dollar," Lane said in a question-and-answer session following the speech.

"And since our mandate is the stability of the purchasing power, this would considerably limit the role of Canadian institutions to control their own inflation rate and to actually have an influence on their own macro-economy."

As it stands, the bank of Canada can design, issue and distribute the bills Canadians hand over when buying a cup of coffee, but it doesn't have the legislative authority from Parliament to offer a digital currency.

Discussions are expected to begin with the Finance Department about the scope of any legislative changes, and how that might affect the design of a central bank digital currency.

Greece's Renewed Relations with Syria Further Isolates Turkey in the Eastern Mediterranean

On Tuesday, the Greek Foreign Ministry finally announced a restoration of relations between Greece and Syria and assigned former ambassador to Syria and Russia, Tasia Athanassiou, as a Special Envoy of Greece's Foreign Ministry for Syria. Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias confirmed this from his Twitter. The appointment of Athanassiou is extremely strategic as she was Greece's ambassador to Damascus from 2009 to 2012, meaning she is already familiar with Syria and their authorities.

The Greek Foreign Ministry said that contacts will be made for the "international aspects of Syria and related humanitarian action, as well as coordination of actions in view of the ongoing efforts to rebuild Syria."

Although the Foreign Ministry claims that the suspension of diplomatic relations "was dictated by the security conditions," we know it was ordered by former Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras in December 2012 under orders from NATO and the European Union who were, and in some instances, still backing jihadists against the secular government of President Bashar al-Assad.

Greece became a country ruled by European banker, EU, and NATO puppets from 2010 onwards when on May 2 of that year, the so-called socialist government of George Papandreou signed the first of three bailout packages with the European Commission, the European central bank and the IMF. This caused a 25% contraction of the Greek economy, an unemployment rate of 27% and skyrocketed poverty. Any semblance of Greek independence in domestic and foreign policy was lost.

However, moving to 2020, the economic and geopolitical situation in Greece and its surrounding region has drastically changed. Diplomatic sources quoted by Kathemirini, one of Greece's oldest and most respected newspaper, said that the decision to appoint a Special Envoy for Syria is part of Greece's steady activity in the Eastern Mediterranean and the wider region. According to the sources, Greece's increased desire in contributing to efforts in resolving the Syrian crisis was stated by Dendias in his meetings with the UN Special Envoy for Syria, Geir Otto Pedersen.

Therefore, a major reason for the reopening of relations with Syria is to further tilt the balance of power in the East Mediterranean in Greece's favor against Turkey, especially at a time when Ankara does not have a single ally in the region, with the exception of the besieged Muslim Brotherhood government in Libya that is nearly collapsed because of the Libyan National Army's assault.

Politicians Have Destroyed Markets and Ignored Human Rights with Alarming Enthusiasm

An economic cataclysm has been unleashed upon the world by Western politicians and bureaucrats. Unbelievably, economic activity in the West has slowed to a creep, as entire populations have been confined to their homes for weeks, if not months. As a result, millions have had their lives turned upside down. Most entrepreneurs and self-employed persons have had their livelihoods jeopardized.

The EU economy may shrink by 5 percent according to the European central bank (ECB), and similar figures have been forecast for the US. The economic devastation wrecked upon Western economies by governments will have consequences for many years to come. It will inevitably lower European and US citizens' quality of life for a long time, impacting their health as well.

It is important to understand that this disaster is not the result of the coronavirus pandemic, which is a public health problem, but of overzealous government officials reacting to the pandemic. A growing number of researchers and health professionals are suggesting that the total number of cases is far higher than previously thought, which means that COVID-19 is far less deadly than the media and government advisors insist. These revised death rates put COVID-19 fatalities in many places at a rate similar to that of the flu, which kills hundreds of thousands of people every single year globally, without provoking any notably large political reaction.

This raises a question: Why the enormous and extreme reactions to the virus from Western politicians, bringing the entire economy to its knees and severely curtailing the fundamental individual freedoms of millions of citizens? Of course, there is the usual incompetence and herd behavior in the political leadership of many countries to be reckoned with. But other reasons exist for this disastrous and irresponsible behavior. Here are some.

First, politicians have generally little understanding of how markets work. Steeped in administrative and policy thinking, most politicians have never worked in the private sector or studied market economics. They neither understand nor appreciate the complexity of markets which make our high standard of living possible. This complexity includes an unfathomable number of daily exchanges, myriad commercial relations, and never-ending adaptation to surrounding conditions. The logic of politics, however, dictates that politicians cannot be seen as "doing nothing," so they seek always intervention in markets. This is not new; it has always been a typical trait of politicians and bureaucrats. The political reactions to the coronavirus pandemic have just dramatically confirmed this truth yet again.

Defiant ECB Pledges Full Commitment After German Ruling on QE

The European central bank responded to a German court ruling criticizing its long-standing bond-buying program by pledging to continue doing everything necessary to revive inflation. After an evening conference call to discuss the surprise decision by Germany's constitutional court, the Governing Council said it took note of the judgment. But it also pointedly remarked that the top European court has previously said quantitative easing is legal.

"The Governing Council remains fully committed to doing everything necessary within its mandate to ensure that inflation rises to levels consistent with its medium-term aim and that the monetary policy action taken in pursuit of the objective of maintaining price stability is transmitted to all parts of the economy and to all jurisdictions of the euro area."

The ECB was given three months to prove that its asset-purchase program, which has bought 2.7 trillion euros ($2.9 trillion) of debt since 2015 and is adding more each month, is in line with the law.

Tuesday's ruling won't stop purchases immediately and it doesn't affect a separate 750 billion-euro plan launched in March to combat the coronavirus crisis. It does, however, raise question marks over just how far the ECB can push its monetary stimulus. The decision is a "legal bombshell," said Holger Schmieding, chief economist at Berenberg. "Whether the German constitutional court's restrictions have an impact on market perceptions as to how effective the ECB can respond to the current economic emergency remains an open question."

The initial response of investors was shock – the euro slid and bond yields fluctuated before rising in stressed economies such as Italy. The single currency remained lower after the ECB statement, trading down 0.5% at $1.0849. The lawsuit was filed by a group of businessmen and academics, frequent critics of the EU who argued that the ECB is improperly conducting economic policy instead of just monetary policy. A key concern is whether sovereign-bond purchases break EU law banning direct financing of governments.

German Finance Minister Olaf Scholz played down the judgment, saying the court "clearly ruled" that QE isn't monetary financing and the program complies with the German constitution.

He also said it shows the need to "further deepen and intensify European cooperation" – implicitly acknowledging the burden the ECB has taken on as governments struggle to agree on joint fiscal stimulus to tackle the coronavirus.

That's a risk for the currency bloc. The ruling could have excluded the Bundesbank from the asset purchase program, which is running at 20 billion euros a month with an additional 120 billion euros as part of measures to combat the current downturn. With Germany the euro zone's biggest economy, its central bank accounts for the biggest share of purchases.

China Moves to Wean Itself of US Dollar Dependence, Steps Up Testing of Sovereign Digital Currency

Reports that China was launching a pilot program to test its ambitious Digital Currency Electronic Payment made headlines in late April, amid the emergence of screenshots on social media showing the DCEP wallet.

As China expands globally, seeking significant financial autonomy and less dependency on America amid its trade war with Washington, the country has long sought to wean itself from the US-dollar dominated financial system.

Finally, after years of effort, China is gearing up to release the world's first sovereign digital currency - DCEP (short for Digital Currency/Electronic Payments).

China's central bank launched a trial program across four cities - Shenzhen, Suzhou, Xiongan and Chengdu - to test the use of its digital currency, touted as incorporating some features of cryptocurrencies, but lacking the anonymity of such digital assets, the Digital Currency Research Institute of the People's bank of China confirmed to the South China Morning Post (SCMP).

Jordan Agrees to $400 Million Loan From IMF

Jordan has agreed a $400 million loan with the International Monetary Fund, according to central bank governor Ziad Fariz, and is talking to other international institutions for extra support amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"The government will have to resort to borrowing and Jordan needs years to address the debt resulting from the crisis," Fariz said late on Monday. The economy will start to recover at the end of the third quarter of 2020, and is expected to grow again in early 2021, he said.

He forecast that the budget deficit will widen by 1 billion dinars in 2020, to 5% of gross domestic product, due to declines in tourism revenues and exports during the health emergency. But he said the slump in oil prices would limit the negative impact on the current-account balance.

Lebanese PM and IMF head discuss country's worst economic crisis in three decades

Lebanese Prime Minister Hassan Diab and International Monetary Fund managing director Kristalina Georgieva discussed the government's plan to rescue the economy from its worst crisis in three decades. Lebanon formally asked the IMF for a loan of at least $10 billion (Dh36.7bn) on Thursday. The economy has buckled under the weight of mounting debt that forced the country to default on eurobonds in March.

Lebanon's gross domestic product is set to contract 12 per cent this year, according to IMF projections. The country's debt ballooned to $92 billion at the end of January, making it one of the highest debt-to-GDP ratios worldwide.

In total, Lebanon has about $31bn in bond maturities and the bulk of that is held by local financial institutions, with lenders and the central bank accounting for 33.4 per cent and 43 per cent, respectively.

Deposit flows, which financed the country's deficits and shored up its banking system, have dried up while credit has been frozen and the Lebanese pound has lost more than half of its value against the US dollar. Long-running political disputes and successive changes of government have prevented Lebanon from carrying out structural reforms needed to unlock pledges worth $11bn by international donors. The government's recovery plan is comprised of measures to adjust the exchange rate regime and restructure public debt and the financial sector.

It also intends to bring about fiscal consolidation and structural, social and environmental reforms while seeking international financial aid.

The programme assumes an exchange rate that fixes the pound at 3,500 to the US dollar - more than double the peg that has existed since 1997.

S. Korean bank pays fine of US$86 million for violating money laundering laws

The Industrial bank of Korea (IBK) reached an agreement with US judicial authorities on penalties of US$86 million in connection with violations of laws for preventing money laundering by a South Korean business that violated sanctions on Iran.

On Apr. 21, the IBK announced that it had reached separate agreements with US federal prosecutors and the New York Department of Financial Services and concluded its full investigation concerning the payment of won-denominated ordinary transactions between South Korea and Iran. The IBK will have to pay US$51 million to US federal prosecutors and US$35 million to the New York Department of Financial Services. In exchange, US judicial authorities have agreed to suspend indictments in connection with the case for a period of two years.

The indictment will automatically expire if no additional issues are raised within the next two years.In May 2014, US prosecutors launched an investigation of suspected money laundering law violations by IBK in connection with falsified transactions with an Iranian company by a South Korean trading firm. The company in question was accused of using disguised transactions to withdraw 1 trillion won (US$811.05 million) from an account created at IBK in the name of Iran's central bank and transfer it among five to six other countries.

MAJOR: China Launches DCEP Cryptocurrency in move against Deep State controlled Bitcoin

BEIJING - After numerous postponements, China seems ready to use its own cryptocurrency, the first of its kind to be openly endorsed by a State and equivalent to legal tender .

Cryptocurrencies in general are digital forms of money protected by some form of encryption . The best known ones that have burst onto the scene in recent years are those that are based on a system of controls called blockchain . Among them stands out bitcoin whose main characteristic is its distributed control and the (supposed) impossibility of one or few people controlling it.

Despite not having the endorsement of a central bank or any official authority, some cryptocurrencies achieved what is essential to consider themselves money: to be accepted as carriers of value. Their dissemination and speculation around them posed a problem for governments because the movements become a black box inaccessible to any control. That is why in some countries, notably China, they recently banned its use and the processing necessary for its operation: about 70 percent of global bitcoin mining was taking place in China .

So…because the NESARA LAW demands that new elections be held within 120 days of the institution of the law, that means today is the last day for NESARA to be formally declared IF there were still plans to have elections on Nov. 3 this year.

Of course, because the law actually states "within 120 days" then any time after the declaration would be fine…as in "Today is May 5, 2020. We are formally declaring NESARA as the established law of the land…new elections will be held tomorrow."

Sigh! However, unlike the demonrats version of the American Dream where everyone has to be asleep…this is a waking dream, a lucid dream if you will, that I hope comes true…sooner rather than later.

And…to expand on the reasons:

Just another reminder regarding the greatest act of treason in American history!

1913!
A demonrat House, demonrat Senate and demonrat president (not deserving of a capital p) committed outright treason, violated the American Constitution, allowing the setting up of a foreign pond-scum central bank and giving control over the American currency - a control given by the Founding Fathers to ONLY the elected government - to those same foreign scumbags and turning 100's of millions of Americans into debt slaves to globalist pigs who feel it is their right to control all the money in the world and if people in any country want to use their own currency…they can borrow off the scum at interest.

Americans must never forget the last 114 years of slavery of ALL Americans orchestrated and implemented by the treasonous demonrat party!

ALL AMERICANS must keep this uppermost in mind - demonrats have always been slave owners. demonrats owned ALL slaves, demonrats created the kkk, demonrats voted against ending slavery, demonrats voted against allowing their slaves to vote, the demonrats voted against giving female slaves the right to vote, or be equal.

Anyone in America, ABSOLUTELY ANYONE who thinks the demonrat slave-owners should be voted for is NOT American!

Basically, David Rothschild was kicked out and the Russian central bank was nationalized, which is why half the government was fired, FSB sources tell us.

Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."
https://tass.com/top-officials/1043741

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanuel Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week. A first cousin of former Emperor Hirohito tells us the bank of Japan has been nationalized and the Rothschilds as well as the Rockefellers have been removed from control of this country.

Groundhog Day: Juan Guaidó Is Trying to Overthrow the Venezuelan Government Again

One year since his audacious coup attempt failed spectacularly, Guaidó is once again trying to overthrow the government of Nicolas Maduro.

Exactly one year since his audacious coup attempt failed spectacularly, self-declared Venezuelan president Juan Guaidó is once again trying to overthrow the government of Nicolas Maduro. "Today I speak to the patriotic soldiers of our Armed Forces who rebelled against hunger and destruction and sided with the constitution," he announced on social media last night, "To the majority of patriotic soldiers who are still in each branch of the Armed Forces: today, more than ever, there are obvious reasons for them to act and support the formation of a National Emergency Government...we are going to liberate all of Venezuela." In a separate video published today, Guaidó addressed Maduro directly: "Every political agreement to save Venezuela begins with your departure from power," he said, demanding his immediate resignation.

Guaidó's call for the military to come over to his side and for Maduro to step down comes precisely one year after his most notable coup attempt, which primarily consisted of him standing on an overpass near a military base, claiming to have taken it over and to lead a huge rebel army. This narrative was rudely interrupted when state media rushed there and filmed the base in a state of complete normalcy, soldiers and even commanders unaware of their supposed defeat. Guaidó continued to address the nation via social media, claiming the small group of people around him in non-matching military uniforms were actual defecting soldiers. The day, like his three other coup attempts that year, ended in embarrassing defeat. The government brushed off the action, labelling it a "small" coup attempt.

However, there are reasons why the U.S. might be able to force their candidate on Venezuela this time. For one, the Trump administration has frozen and transferred $342 million from the central bank of Venezuela's Citibank account to Guaidó, who is using the Venezuelan people's collective wealth to pay his supporters $5,000 per month, an enormous salary in Venezuela. He is also offering local medical workers a stipend during the coronavirus pandemic, hoping to increase his base of support. At a time of collapsing oil prices (the country's major export) the United States has also sent warships to the region to tighten sanctions against the country, all under the guise of an anti-drug operation. Venezuela imports a great deal of food, and much of it is controlled by oligarchical corporations linked to the opposition. For example, over half of the country's flour is controlled by Empresas Polar, (the country's largest private company) whose CEO, Lorenzo Mendoza, considered standing as the opposition's presidential candidate in 2018. Mendoza has regularly used his power to starve the country at times of political tension.

Q Research General #11507: 2020 Freedom Vs Tyranny Edition

Fed Cuts Pace Of Treasury QE To Just $8 Billion Per Day

From an initial $75 billion per day when the Fed announced the launch of Unlimited QE in March, the US central bank first reduced its daily buying to $60 billion per day, then four weeks ago announced another 'taper' in its bond-buying program to $50 billion per day, which was followed by a reduction to 30 billion per day, which was then again cut in half to $15 billion per day. Then, last week the Fed again slashed its daily POMO by another 33%, to $10BN per day, and now in its latest schedule, the Fed unveiled that in the coming week it would purchase "only" $8BN per day. Contrary to some expectations that the Fed would only announce a month POMO total, the Fed continued the practice of providing a weekly preview of its purchasing operations, which in the coming week will amount to $40BN in TSYs.

Here is the full schedule of Treasury purchases for the week ahead. Note the increasing divergence between some days of the week, such as the $4.5BN in POMO on Monday vs the $13BN on Tuesday.

Additionally, the Fed will also taper its MBS buying from $8 billion to $6 billion on average in MBS per day next week:

Mon: $6.16Bn from $8.213BN last Monday
Tue: $5.76BN from $7.68BN last Tuesday
Wed: $6.16BN from $8.213BN last Wednesday
Thur: $5.76BN from $7.68BN last Thursday
Fri: $6.16 from $8.213BN last Friday

So, in aggregate, the Fed will buy a total of $70 billion of MBS/TSYs next week, down from $90 billion but still vastly more on a weekly basis than the largest QE programs monthly totals before this crisis, if well below the $625 billion in purchases conducted in the week starting March 23, when the financial system was once again on the verge of collapse and only the Fed could bail it out… just don't call it a bail out because nobody could have possibly anticipated an economic shock especially after banks repurchased trillions in their own stock in the past decade. Meanwhile, as we showed last night, as of April 29, the Fed's balance sheet was a satanically record $6.66 trillion, up $82.8 billion on the week and up $2.5 trillion from a year ago. Just staggering numbers and unprecedented attempts at dollar debasement, which however remains stubbornly strong as a result of the ongoing $12 trillion global US dollar short squeeze. Finally, for those curious what the "helicopter money" big picture looks like, now that the Fed and Treasury are merged with the Fed stuck monetizing Treasury issuance indefinitely, here it is: as we reported last week when the Fed did QE in the years following the 2008 financial crisis monthly Treasury purchases never exceeded US Treasury net issuance,but the Fed is now on track to buy double the amount of net issuance.

It Begins - the destruction of Roths controlled currency - will this town be destroyed like they did with everyone else who minted usury-free currency?
Italian Town Creates New Currency To Cope With COVID-19
https://cointelegraph.com/news/italian-town-creates-new-currency-to-cope-with-covid-19
A small southern Italian town of 550 residents, Castellino del Biferno, has started minting their own currency, called Ducati, as a method to support their local economy during the coronavirus Pandemic.

The town mayor Enrico Fratangelo, had been studying minting money for 12 years before having the opportunity to put his ideas to the test.

"We decided to mint money to make sure the local economy could withstand the impact of the situation. However small this economy may be, there are three or four businesses still open, without considering bars or pubs," Fratangelo explained.

Supporting the Economy
Ducati are distributed to residents based on their economic needs and can be spent on essential goods. In order to minimize any confusion, the value of 1 Ducati will equal 1 euro. The town council received ?5,500 from the government to issue food stamps, and with the addition of their own savings, they were able to fund the solution.

The entire process is managed locally with watermarked paper, with special care to ensure the notes don't transmit the virus, according to the copy shop owner Antonio Lannaocone:

"We start off with watermarked paper, then we print the banknotes - according to the design agreed with the administration - on one sheet of paper. We then laminate the sheet, so that the bills can be disinfected. Once it's laminated, we cut the banknotes with their final dimensions."

Every two weeks, the shops may return any Ducati to the town council in exchange for the corresponding amount in Euros.

This isn't the first time
The idea of a heavily localized currency has been tried before in Italy in 2016. Gioiosa, also in Italy's south, is home to a group of asylum seekers and uses a local currency that is only accepted in local stores. Referred to as "tickets", this approach helps to ensure that local businesses benefit, defusing any potential tension with the new arrivals.

Does this demonstrate the need for a digital currency?
The current situation facing economies around the world has brought to light the potential benefits of cryptocurrencies and this town's solution is another step to that end.

The Ducati, although an innovative solution, would only work in a very small scale economy due to risks of contamination and counterfeiting increasing with increased popularity, in addition to the high cost of production.

A digital version of the Ducati would look very similar to a central bank Digital Currency, and would not have the same costs associated with Ducati being minted, nor would it risk contamination or counterfeiting.

Fed's Powell Tells Reporters Fed Has Only "Lending Powers" - So How Does It Own $5.5 Trillion of Securities?

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell had one focus and one focus only at yesterday's press conference. That was to come across as the epitome of prudence and law-abiding virtue. Unfortunately, the cold, hard facts on the ground keep getting in the way of that narrative.

Powell first read an opening statement which included this rather remarkable statement about the trillions of dollars in emergency funding facilities that the Fed has already rolled out, or plans to roll out, to bail out Wall Street's excesses:

"Many of these programs rely on emergency lending powers that are available only in unusual circumstances such as those we find ourselves in today. We are deploying these lending powers to an unprecedented extent, enabled in large part by the financial backing and support from Congress and the Treasury...I would stress that these are lending powers and not spending powers. The Fed cannot grant money to particular beneficiaries. We can only make loans to solvent entities, with the expectation that the loans will be repaid."

The truth of the matter is that the Fed has adopted the mindset of Wall Street: it's legal if you can get away with it. The Fed didn't start its emergency programs as a result of the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic as Powell suggests in the statement above. It started these programs on September 17, 2019 - three months before the first case of the virus had been announced anywhere in the world. That emergency action occurred when Wall Street banks refused to lend to each other in the repo loan market - just as they had in the financial panic of 2008.

The Fed didn't officially invoke the emergency lending section of the Federal Reserve Act known as 13(3) for its repo loans, it simply made more than $9 trillion in super cheap loans to the trading houses of Wall Street over the next six months and refused to provide the names of the firms to whom the money went, leaving the public and shareholders in the dark as to what firm(s) was in trouble and getting a bailout.

Powell next told reporters yesterday that the Fed has only "lending powers and not spending powers." Powell was attempting to appease academics, think tank scholars and media critics who believe it is violating the Federal Reserve Act and usurping the spending role of an elected Congress by buying up trillions of dollars in bonds.

It's pretty silly for Powell to attempt to float the illusion that the Fed is adhering to its mandated role as just a lender-of-last-resort when its own balance sheet shows that, as of last Wednesday, it owns the following: $3.9 trillion in Treasury securities and $1.6 trillion in Mortgage-Backed Securities which it has purchased outright with money it creates out of thin air.

Securities owned outright by the Fed now make up 83 percent of its $6.6 trillion balance sheet. That doesn't sound like a central bank that understands that it is just a lender-of-last-resort and has no spending powers.

In addition, since the Fed's Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF) was announced on March 23, it has purchased $2.7 billion of commercial paper, according to its latest balance sheet.

And really making waves are the Fed's imminent plans to purchase outright upwards of $500 billion in corporate bonds, including junk bonds and junk bond ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds), under new facilities known as the Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility and the Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility.

The sleight of hand that the Fed is using to pretend that it's only lending money under its emergency 13(3) powers is its creation, via the New York Fed, of Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) as Limited Liability Corporations (LLCs). The New York Fed loans the money to the SPV it created and then that entity does the actual buying of the bonds or commercial paper.

Powell also inferred in his statement yesterday that the Fed's massive Wall Street bailout programs had the "financial backing and support from Congress and the Treasury." They may have the support of the former foreclosure king and Goldman Sachs banker Steve Mnuchin who failed up to become President Trump's U.S. Treasury Secretary, but there is nothing in the CARES Act legislation to suggest that Congress has given the green light to the Fed becoming a junk bond market maker on Wall Street.

Deutsche bank Capitulates: Starts Charging Negative Rate On All New Deposit Accounts Over ?100,000

It has been a long time coming and it's finally here.

When the ECB first unleashed negative rates across Europe in 2014, banks were loathe to match the central bank's deposit rates for their clients to those charged by the ECB over fears depositors would simply take their money and go elsewhere. After all, the premise of paying a bank for the privilege of holding your money is still absolutely insane to most normal people.

Indeed, just last November, Deutsche bank vowed that it would pass on negative interest rates only to larger corporate customers or the deposits of wealthy individuals and spare most retail clients, Deputy Chief Executive Officer Karl von Rohr said, explaining that German banks have already paid several billion euros in penalty rates for their deposits with the European central bank and Deutsche bank's payments amount to "several hundred million euros for 2019."

Now, less than half a year later, the Frankfurt-based bank - which itself is in dire financial straits - has capitulated and to avoid paying the ECB's punitive rate will soon introduce negative interest rates for even its medium depositors.

A Deutsche bank spokesman told Handelsblatt that "The ongoing pressure from negative interest rates makes it necessary for Deutsche bank to charge custody fees for new accounts exceeding ?100,000 starting May 18, 2020." The "deposit rate" of -0.5% is equal to the rate the ECB charges banks for money parked there.

"This helps us on the earnings side, but above all it helps to prevent further inflows of particularly high deposits that cost us money," wrote Manfred Knof, head of the bank's German private customer business, to his employees. This applies "especially in the event that other banks further adjust their conditions and their customers are looking for an alternative for their deposits with us."

In other words, with the ECB flooding the European financial system with a tsunami of liquidity - one which it expanded today with yet another meaningless long-term refi operation as if that will do anything to help banks who can no longer earn a net interest margin arb become solvent - Europe's banks no longer need deposits, and in fact will do everything they can to push away all but the smallest depositors. The good news, for now, is that "existing account contracts are not affected" however we expect that to change soon.

So with European banks finally cracking down on the bulk of their depositors instead of just the top 1% and corporate clients, what happens next?

Well, savers who collectively owns trillions in European bank deposits that are now non grata have two options: either pull the money out, convert it to cash and store it in a safe (something Germany has a lot of experience with especially in late 2016 when Deutsche bank was on the verge of collapse, sparking a rush to buy safes) where it is outside of the financial system - this is precisely the alternative the ECB prepared for several years ago when it stopped printing the ?500 banknote, or more likely, buy alternative physical assets which - in a time of pervasive deflation and negative rates - do not charge a penalty rate, such as gold or even cryptos.

So if over the next few months a wave of "mysterious" buying emerges and lifts all non-traditional assets which prevent central banks from imposing penalty rates, we will know why: the real great rotation has finally begun.

After all, the premise of paying a bank for the privilege of holding your money is still absolutely insane to most normal people.

However, as the years went by, and as the ECB's negative rates kept rising - or rather dropping - banks were forced to quietly admit they had no choice and starting at the very top, targeting only corporate clients and the biggest depositors, European banks started imposing negative deposit rates while hoping they could avoid going all the way to the smaller savers.

Indeed, just last November, Deutsche bank vowed that it would pass on negative interest rates only to larger corporate customers or the deposits of wealthy individuals and spare most retail clients, Deputy Chief Executive Officer Karl von Rohr said, explaining that German banks have already paid several billion euros in penalty rates for their deposits with the European central bank and Deutsche bank's payments amount to "several hundred million euros for 2019."

Boeing raises $25 billion in blowout debt sale, eschews government aid

Boeing Co (BA.N) raised $25 billion in a bond offering on Thursday, a blowout result for the planemaker, which it said helped the company avoid taking government aid during the coronavirus-induced travel downturn. Boeing's capital raise, first reported by Reuters earlier this week, is the sixth-largest investment-grade bond offering of all time and the biggest year-to-date, according to Refinitiv data. The Federal Reserve's intervention in the credit market has boosted prospects for troubled borrowers such as Boeing.

The U.S. central bank has slashed interest rates to zero and rolled out around $2 trillion in lending commitments. While it has not yet snapped up any corporate bonds such as Boeing's, its openness to doing so has buoyed credit markets.

The planemaker has been trying to bring its 737 MAX jet back into service after two fatal crashes, while the coronavirus pandemic has hammered aviation and other industries. Business shutdowns around the world to curb the outbreak have dried up demand for air travel.

Exclusive: Venezuela asks bank of England to sell its gold to U.N. for coronavirus relief - sources
Corina Pons, Mayela Armas

5 Min Read

CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuela is asking the bank of England to sell part of the South American nation's gold reserves held in its coffers and send the proceeds to the United Nations to help with the country's coronavirus-fighting efforts, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation.
FILE PHOTO: Medical workers take blood samples from a man for a coronavirus disease (COVID-19) rapid test at a medical facility due to the COVID-19 outbreak in Caracas, Venezuela April 15, 2020. Picture taken April 15, 2020. REUTERS/Manaure Quintero

Venezuela for decades stored gold that makes up part of its central bank reserves in the vaults of foreign financial institutions including the bank of England, which provides gold custodian services to many developing countries.

But the bank of England has since 2018 refused to transfer the 31 tonnes of gold to the government of President Nicolas Maduro, whom Great Britain has refused to recognize as the country's legitimate leader after his disputed 2018 re-election.

The effort signals that Maduro is desperately seeking financial resources around the world as the country's economy struggles under low oil prices, crippling U.S. sanctions and a paralyzing coronavirus quarantine.

Consulted about the issue, the United Nations Development Programme said it "has been approached recently to explore mechanisms to use existing resources held by the central bank of Venezuela in financial institutions outside the country to fund the ongoing efforts to address the … the COVID-19 pandemic."

It was not immediately evident how much gold Venezuela was asking the bank of England to sell. At current market prices, Venezuelan gold on deposit at the bank of England would be worth around $1.7 billion.

Venezuela's information ministry and central bank did not respond to requests for comment.

The bank of England said it does not comment on individual customer relationships.

Former U.N. aid chief Jan Egeland on Tuesday called for sanctions on Venezuela and other countries to be lifted and urged the release of Venezuelan funds in banks in Britain, the United States and Portugal.

Report: China aiming to be first country to implement digital currency

China is working to be the first nation to implement a total central-bank digital currency (CDBC) into limited use, according to a report from the brokerage firm Citic Securities.

The China-based firm said that the Chinese government is testing the digital currency system by paying for half of the cost of travel for government workers in certain cities in the nation, The Economist reported. The cities are Shenzhen, Suzhou, Xiongan and Chengdu, and the Xiangcheng district of Suzhou is expected to begin the test in May.

As the world deals with the coronavirus pandemic, central banks have begun cleaning paper currency that might be contaminated with the deadly virus, which has infected 3 million people and killed more than 200,000, according to the latest research data from Johns Hopkins.

Dozens of central banks have begun to look into digital currency, but none more so than China. Digital currency users would theoretically be able to use and transfer cash without an internet connection, according to the Economist, possibly by using Bluetooth.

But a digital currency could also give the Chinese government a powerful tool to easily monitor and manipulate spending, more so than it is already accused of doing. China would also be able to track all the money in circulation, making it difficult to launder money or evade taxes.

Renewed Calls to Dethrone the Dollar

Last year, we reported extensively on a push toward de-dollarization by countries like Russia and China and their desire to undermine the ability of the US to weaponize the dollar as a foreign policy tool. Europe was even starting to push to dethrone the dollar as the reserve currency.

With the Federal Reserve running the dollar printing press at full speed and the US government expanding the national debt into the stratosphere, there are renewed calls for a currency to replace the dollar as the world reserve.

This week, Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) President Wang Zhenying called for a new super-sovereign currency to replace the greenback.

Reuters reports:

Concern has mounted among some market participants over the dollar-denominated system as the US Federal Reserve cut interest rates to near-zero and embarked on unlimited quantitative easing to contain the economic damage of the coronavirus pandemic."

Wang said that the Fed's monetary policy in response to COVID-19 would eventually tank the dollar even though the current crisis has triggered a scramble for greenbacks.

When the Fed turns on the liquidity tap, the US dollar will, in theory, be in a long-term depreciatory trend."

Peter Schiff has been predicting that the dollar is going to tank for quite some time. It's a matter of when, not if. As the coronavirus crisis began to unfold and the Fed fired up the printing press, Peter said that with the central bank and government response to the coronavirus, hyperinflation has gone from being the worst-case scenario to the most likely scenario.

Peter has also said he thinks people will eventually start dumping dollars.

Nobody can hold dollars. Nobody can hold any bonds denominated in dollars. This is now like a game of musical chairs where nobody wants to get caught with dollars when the music stops playing."

Wang not only expressed concern about the long-term stability of the dollar; he also echoed an oft-repeated criticism of the US controlling the reserve currency. America uses the privilege as a foreign policy tool. For instance, in 2014 and 2015, the blocked several Russian banks from SWIFT as relations between the two countries deteriorated. Last fall, the US threatened to lock China out of the dollar system if it didn't follow UN sanctions on North Korea. Wang said this needs to end.

It is a weapon for the US, but a source of insecurity for other countries. The currency the world ultimately chooses for global trade must not be one that gives someone privilege, while exposing others to insecurity."

Well let's see, I lost my job. It won't be there when this is over. Everyone is scared of everyone else, have to wear a mask, stay away from everyone, and as far as what DJT, Q, and the Military, we'll just have to wait and see. It sure appears that they are gearing up to install the

What do you think replacing the central bank will look like?

Yes the viral hoax is very bad for everyone, it has effectively killed the USA as we know it.

In the unlikely event that they are preventing this instead, then he will prove to be a great patriot.

Fed Will Broaden Municipal Lending Program Eligibility

The Federal Reserve said Monday it will broaden the number of local governments from which it will buy debt through a forthcoming central bank lending program.

The Fed will allow one borrower for each county of at least 500,000 people and city of at least 250,000, down from earlier cutoffs of 2 million and 1 million, respectively.

The central bank has faced pressure from lawmakers and other elected officials to expand the number of municipalities that are able to borrow through the Fed.

The Fed announced the program more than two weeks ago and initially limited participation to 76 issuers – including all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
https://www.morningstar.com/news/dow-jones/2020042713138/fed-will-broaden-municipal-lending-program-eligibility

FRB Announcement

excerpt
The Federal Reserve is also considering expanding the MLF to allow a limited number of governmental entities that issue bonds backed by their own revenue to participate directly in the MLF as eligible issuers. Any decision to include any such additional eligible issuers would be publicly announced at a future date. The Federal Reserve will continue to closely monitor conditions in primary and secondary markets for municipal securities and will evaluate whether additional measures are needed to support the flow of credit and liquidity to state and local governments.

The MLF is established under Section 13(3) of the Federal Reserve Act, with approval of the Treasury Secretary. The Treasury will provide $35 billion of credit protection to the Federal Reserve for the facility using funds appropriated by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

bank of Japan vows to buy government bonds 'without upper limit'

Tokyo stocks rise 2.7% after central bank acts to help companies weather pandemic.

TOKYO – The bank of Japan further boosted its monetary stimulus at a one-day policy meeting on Monday, aiming to support the government's efforts to rescue the economy from the effects of the coronavirus. The BOJ said it will "purchase a necessary amount of Japanese government bonds without setting an upper limit," echoing the language used by the U.S. Federal Reserve last month that it would buy government bonds "in the amounts needed" to support the American economy.

The removal of the cap is seen as a largely symbolic step, as the BOJ had been purchasing few JGBs recently and could easily expand its purchases without lifting the upper limit. But the new language "could help remove any investor concern about the supply-demand balance of the JGB market, as the government may have to borrow more to support the economy," said Yuichi Kodama, chief economist at the Meiji Yasuda Research Institute.

Stocks reacted positively to the news, with the Nikkei Stock Average closing 2.7% higher. European stocks also jumped in early trading, while the yen firmed against the dollar and was changing hands at 107.22-23 versus the greenback at 5 p.m. local time, compared with 107.70-71 late last Friday.

BOJ Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda later stressed to reporters that the new measure does not amount to underwriting government debt. "The BOJ will buy JGBs as much as necessary," he said. But he added, "This is not a permanent measure" and it will last only as long as necessary to achieve the bank's 2% inflation target.

The central bank will also nearly triple the amount of corporate bonds and commercial paper that it can purchase, hoping to ease funding problems at large corporations.

To help small and midsize enterprises, the Japanese central bank has eased collateral rules as well, allowing commercial banks to access its liquidity program for the purpose of increasing loans to such businesses. For commercial banks that raise their balance of SME loans, the BOJ will offer an interest rate of 0.1% as an incentive.

In his news conference, Kuroda underlined the need for liquidity support for businesses, saying they are facing "more serious funding challenges than during the Lehman crisis," even as "the financial market has regained some stability recently." He noted that businesses will have to offer higher interest rates to borrow money with commercial paper and corporate bonds, and that some companies are hesitating to borrow due to higher interest rates.

Meanwhile, the central bank sharply downgraded its forecast for the economy, predicting a 3% to 5% contraction for the fiscal year that started this month. It sees consumer prices falling 0.3% to 0.7% this year.

Kuroda stressed that the central bank is "not foreseeing a return to deflation," or falling prices over an extended period of time. He said the bank expects prices to rise from 2021 onward.

The bank's forecast ranges reflect a high degree of uncertainty. But the dire numbers illustrate the severity of the ongoing downturn, caused by the plunge in inbound tourism and stay-at-home requests from the government. Meiji Yasuda's Kodama thinks negative growth will be unavoidable even if the economy recovers later in the year.

bank of Japan Ramps Up Stimulus With Pledge for Unlimited Bond Buying
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bank-japan-ramps-stimulus-pledge-033022947.html

(Bloomberg) – The bank of Japan removed limits on its purchases of government bonds, joining global counterparts in their unprecedented expansion of monetary stimulus as the coronavirus hammers the world economy.

The central bank also increased its scope for buying corporate bond and commercial paper by raising its ceiling on holdings to 20 trillion yen, according to its statement Monday in Tokyo. The BOJ's previous guideline on government debt was to increase holdings by around 80 trillion yen ($743 billion) per year.

With the extra measures focused on supporting struggling companies with financing help, the bank kept its short- and long-term interest rate targets unchanged. A return to relative stability in stock markets and reduced concern over the possibility of a sudden strengthening of the yen have given the BOJ some breathing space to leave its main interest rate policy levers untouched.

Additional stimulus was expected by 59% of economists surveyed by Bloomberg. The bank had come under increasing pressure to take more action as the declaration of a nationwide state of emergency this month brought more shutdowns and a growing need for financial support.

The BOJ also likely saw a need to take action before the Fed and the European central bank meet later this week, so as not to be seen lagging the bold moves of its peers.

The additional measures announced by Governor Haruhiko Kuroda also show a greater degree of fiscal-monetary policy coordination, with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe unveiling more than $1 trillion in stimulus this month and an accompanying plan to issue more bonds.

"The BOJ must be aggressive as Japan's virus situation is getting worse," Yoshimasa Maruyama, chief market economist at SMBC Nikko Securities, said before today's decision. "The BOJ will continue to be walking on a tight rope with few tools left."

With other central banks due to meet, the BOJ didn't want to appear to be doing "too late, too little," he added.

For BOJ officials, memories are still fresh of being criticized for failing to act enough during the financial crisis and causing the yen to strengthen, which eventually led to the leadership change that brought Kuroda to the helm in 2013.

Monday's decision signals that the BOJ's concern over the pandemic has intensified quickly. Unlimited bond buying was not an ideal option to take, in the view of some officials, as it further narrows bank's policy choices at a time of heightened uncertainty, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg earlier this month.

BOJ Has Perfect Cover to Ditch 80 Trillion Yen Bond Purchase Aim

Still, it remains in question how Monday's decision will actually change the BOJ's bond purchases. The current yield curve control program doesn't require a surge in purchases as long as 10-year bond yields stay around 0%.

bank of Japan to expand stimulus again as pandemic pain deepens
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-japan-economy-boj/bank-of-japan-to-expand-stimulus-again-as-pandemic-pain-deepens-idUSKCN22902K

TOKYO (Reuters) - The bank of Japan is expected to expand monetary stimulus on Monday for the second straight month to ease corporate funding strains and finance huge government spending aimed at combating the deepening economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.

Such a move would put the BOJ in line with other major central banks that have unleashed unprecedented amounts of monetary support amid the health crisis.

Sources have told Reuters the BOJ is likely to take further steps to ease funding strains for companies whose sales have collapsed, such as boosting purchases of corporate bonds and commercial debt.

The central bank may also clarify its commitment to buy unlimited amounts of government bonds by scrapping loose guidance to buy them at an annual pace of 80 trillion yen ($744 billion) per year, say sources familiar with its thinking.

Removing the guidance will be largely symbolic, they say. The BOJ has only purchased less than 20 trillion yen per year, as the bank's huge presence in the market allows it to control yields with fewer purchases.

"Still, it's something the BOJ could contemplate," one of the sources said. "By showing its resolve to buy bonds aggressively, the BOJ can send a message it is working closely with the government by keeping borrowing costs ultra-low," the source said, a view echoed by another source.

At the meeting on Monday cut short by a day as a precaution against the spread of the pandemic, the BOJ is widely expected to keep its interest rate targets unchanged.

Under a policy dubbed yield curve control, the BOJ targets short-term interest rates at -0.1% and 10-year bond yields around 0%. It also buys government bonds and risky assets to pump money aggressively into the economy.
FUNDING STRAINS REMAIN

The BOJ's rate review precedes those this week by the Federal Reserve and the European central bank, which have sailed into uncharted territories to keep their economies afloat.

Corporate funding costs have crept up in Japan despite the BOJ's decision last month to boost risky asset buying and create a loan programme to assist funding of firms hit by the pandemic.

Among the measures taken in March were a pledge for the BOJ to increase purchases of corporate bonds and commercial debt by 2 trillion yen.

The BOJ could further boost the amount of such assets it buys and accept a wider range of assets as collateral from financial institutions, the sources said.

In fresh quarterly estimates also due on Monday, the central bank is set to sharply cut its economic growth forecasts and project inflation to remain distant from its 2% target for three more years.

Japan expanded a state of emergency this month that asks citizens to stay home and businesses to close, adding to woes for an economy already on the cusp of recession.

To ease the pain on the economy, the government boosted its spending package last week to a record $1.1 trillion yen, which will be paid for partly by issuing more bonds - straining Japan's already tattered finances.

($1 = 107.5000 yen)

CV-1984: China Rolls Out Test Of Digital Currency In Four Cities, Western Businesses Testing

After the coronavirus caused China to shut down most of its businesses, and cities, the country is now striking back hard by releasing a digital currency and national blockchain.

China's central bank The People's bank Of China, began testing its new digital Yuan's interface on April 14th with one of its largest banks, the Agricultural bank of China, rolling out a test UI. Two weeks later, there are reports that a pilot has been launched. Nineteen restaurants and retail establishments including popular Western restaurant chains like Starbucks, McDonald's and Subway are participating in the test, Bitcoin.com reported. The test run is taking place in at least four cities in China-Shenzhen, Suzhou, Chengdu and Xiong'an, according to China's central bank which confirmed the test of its new digital Yuan officially called "Digital Currency Electronic Payment (DCEP)" to the Wall Street Journal.

That's not all, China also launched its Blockchain Service Network (BSN) for domestic and global commercial use. China also announced a 71-person committee for its Blockchain which includes executives from China's central bank, as well as tech giants Baidu and Tencent, according to an announcement from the country's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT.)

Last year, Max Keiser of the Keiser Report told Kitco News that China was backing the new digital Yuan with gold.

"[China] is rolling out a cryptocurrency, a lot of the details have not been divulged. I can tell you that the cryptocurrency that China's rolling out will be backed by gold. It's a two-pronged announcement. Number one, China's got 20,000 tonnes of gold, number two, we're rolling out a crypto coin backed by gold, and the dollar is toast," Keiser told Kitco News.

This author also had his own source from the bank for International Settlements (BIS) saying much of the same for years, in which I wrote up two articles explaining the shift from the West as the world reserve currency. Those articles were entitled: "A Shift Of Power: Russia and China Finalize Moves To Replace U.S. Dollar As World Reserve Currency" and "China Finalizes Moves On Oil Markets To Overthrow U.S. Petro-Dollar Dominance As World Reserve Currency."

Both articles detail numerous financial moves that China has taken in the past 10 years. One of which was buying up gold from the U.S. as a WikiLeaks cable titled "China increases its gold reserves in order to kill two birds with one stone" details.

China again began stockpiling gold in 2013, when they bought JPMorgan's building that previously housed its gold. The IMF and United Nations have even expressed agreement that it's time to replace the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency with what's known as SDRs or special drawing rights . Then the Asian Infrastructure Investment bank (AIIB) was planned between 2010-2012, and was fully operational by 2016.

"China has been pushing for the SDR to become more widely used for some time, as a way to challenge the dominance of the dollar without pushing the renminbi as a direct competitor," Julian Evans-Pritchard, a China economist at Capital Economics in Singapore, told Reuters.

Although currently it is not known if China's digital Yuan is backed by gold, it wouldn't be at all surprising. China opened up its own gold market in 2016, an entirely separate system than the COMEX gold futures market in New York and the Over-the-Counter (OTC) trades cleared through the London Bullion Market. China and Russia have both been working to undermine the West and the U.S. dollar since China called for a new world reserve currency as early as 2009.

Fed Cut Back on Helicopter Money for Wall Street & the Wealthy

Total assets on the Fed's balance sheet rose by $205 billion during the week ending April 22, to $6.57 trillion. Since the week ending March 11, when the bailout of the Everything Bubble and its holders began, the Fed has printed $2.26 trillion.

But the $205 billion increase was the smallest increase since the mega-bailout began with its Sunday March 15 announcement. The Fed is tapering its purchases of Treasury securities and mortgage-backed securities (MBS). Repurchase agreements (repos) are falling into disuse. Lending to Special Purposes Vehicles (SPVs) has leveled off. And foreign central bank liquidity swaps, after having spiked initially, only ticked up by a small-ish amount.

The sharply reduced increases confirm that the Fed is following its various announcements over the past two years that during the next crisis - namely now - it would front-load the bailout QE and after the initial blast would then taper it out of existence, rather than let it drag out for years.

This concept was further confirmed by Fed Chair Jerome Powell in on April 10 when he said that the Fed would pack away its emergency tools when "private markets and institutions are once again able to perform their vital functions of channeling credit and supporting economic growth."

Overall, the Fed has cut the big QE purchases by 65% since the peak week (week ending April 1, $586 billion), to $205 billion:

There is an enormous difference between a PRIVATE central bank, like the Fed and a PUBLIC central bank, like Iran. Libya and Germany also had public central banks and they, too, had to be destroyed for their insolence.
China has a public central bank, but it's not really free because they pegged their currency to the FRN.

Chinese and Western Intelligence Services Hunting Down Telecom Executives

Ben Fulford, 4/20/20
The so-called Coronavirus pandemic has now been definitively traced to 5G electromagnetic attacks, multiple sources agree.
In order to stop the hardliners and prevent all-out war, an active hunt has begun for all industry executives and oligarchs involved in the 5G rollout, Western and Asian secret intelligence sources agree.

The targets include the now extinct Bush family and the Chinese Soong family, the sources say.
The hunt is necessary to stop full-scale thermonuclear war because "our analysis of the forensics does show a provocation of war...that is to say we see a full all-out war as highly probable," MI6 sources say.

Chinese hardliners, for their part, are pushing for the destruction of New York in retaliation for the attack on Wuhan, something that could also precipitate a world-destroying war, Asian Secret Society sources say.

Well now take a look at the money issued in the U.S. and the UK to commemorate this pandemic attack. The first is a fruit-bat (the alleged source of the coronavirus) quarter issued in 2020 by the U.S. mint.

The second is the new UK 20-pound note featuring a picture of a 5G cellphone tower and above it a coronavirus. https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/banknotes/polymer-20-pound-note

Both the British Secret Service and the Pentagon White Hats now actively targeting the families that own the Federal Reserve Board, the BIS, the European central bank and the bank of Japan.

Pentagon sources say "the death of [George] Bush Jr's first Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill may signal the purge of Wall Street, as the Fed was taken over and the exchange stabilization fund (ESF) diverted from CIA and the Deep State."

The aim of the current pandemic engineered by the Bush/Rothschild faction is to centralize control and carry out a eugenic purge of the human population, CIA sources confirm.

This "pandemic" attack on the human race is centered on 5G by quoting a reader comment based on the work of three Nobel Prize-winning doctors:

"5G electromagnetic radiation injures human cellular DNA. The exposed cells (of all kinds within the human target) respond by producing a cascade of immunological protective substances. These substances are packaged in an intracellular structure called an endosome.
The endosome is expelled from the cell, becoming an exosome.The exosome circulates and binds to the ACE 2 receptors of the lung, gut, and heart.
The exposed cell response is the same if the exposure is 5G or COVID-19 (the flu)
The immunological chemicals in the exosome package attack the ACE 2 possessing cells producing the effect of 5G radiation exposure or the flu, which is being covered up as COVID-19.The COVID-19 case rate is 96% in 5G areas and only 4% in 4G or lower areas.

"Professor Yitzhak Ben Israel of Tel Aviv University, plotted the rates of new coronavirus infections of the U.S., U.K., Sweden, Italy, Israel, Switzerland, France, Germany, and Spain.
The numbers told a shocking story: irrespective of whether the country quarantined like Israel, or went about business as usual like Sweden, coronavirus peaked and subsided in the exact same way. In the exact, same, way."

https://townhall.com/columnists/marinamedvin/2020/04/15/israeli-professor-shows-virus-follows-fixed-pattern-n2566915

In other words, the current pandemic could not have been caused by a virus or else the quarantines should have made a statistical difference.The Japanese government confirmed the dangers of 5G when they tested it on the cruise ship Diamond Princess before stopping, at the last minute, a panned nation-wide rollout of the technology.

This rollout was being pushed by Bush ally and Soong family representative Son Masayoshi of Softbank, Asian secret society sources say.Here is what the P3 Freemasons had to say about this:
"Ten percent of the Chinese Communist Party is in the hands of the sister of Madame Soong, a very cruel woman...she is in contact with the daughter of Xi Jinping...they are under the control of the Zionists and the bad side of Israel via the Red Star Foundation using Quanto 49 (Quanto is a derivative used in this case to convert FRB money into Chinese Renminbi)."

Remember the attack on Wuhan was traced to a company owned by the Soros Foundation, which is a Rothschild front. The Rothschilds are allied with a Chinese faction that supports the idea of a man-made Armageddon.

China Economy: Starbucks, McDonald's Among American Companies Taking Part In Cryptocurrency Program=

Chinese state-run media announced this week that American chains McDonald's, Starbucks and Subway would be among the companies to take part in the country's cryptocurrency pilot program. The Securities Times reported that 19 companies in total would be involved in the digital currency trial in Xiong'an, an area southeast of Beijing.

The currency is being developed by the People's bank of China (PBOC), the country's state-run bank. The cryptocurrency aims to make digital transactions easier in the world's second-largest economy, and will be compatible with Alipay and WeChat Pay, two popular mobile payment apps.

Xinhua News Agency has reported that further tests of the digital currency will likely be conducted in the Chinese cities of Shenzhen and Chengdu ahead of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. The Chinese cryptocurrency program, known as the central bank digital currency (CBDC) project, has been in development for six years.

Mu Changchun, the head of the People's bank of China's digital currency research institute, said in December that the currency would be a "digital form of the yuan."

"The currency is not for speculation. It is different to bitcoin or stable tokens, which can be used for speculation or require the support of a basket of currencies," Mu said. Mu has said the cryptocurrency would provide a degree of "anonymity" to users, although there are privacy concerns regarding Beijing's possible surveillance of the digital money.

Cryptocurrency is becoming more recognized as legal tender in the international community. German banks, for example, are legally allowed to store cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin on behalf of their clients starting this year.

Hundreds Protest Lebanese Currency Crash
https://www.oann.com/hundreds-protest-lebanese-currency-crash/

Hundreds of Lebanese citizens are protesting as the country's currency rate takes a deep plunge due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Residents continued their third consecutive day of rallies in Beirut as the value of the Lebanese pound decreased significantly against the U.S. dollar.

Since 1990s, 1,500 Lebanese pounds equaled to one U.S. dollar, but this week it took a sharp increase. It reached up to 3,700 pounds to the dollar. On Thursday, residents crowded around money transfer offices as it marked the last day they would be allowed to dispense dollars to customers following new central bank rules.

The rules will require the banks to convert cash withdrawals from foreign currency bank accounts to the local currency at market price in an effort to lessen the demand of the U.S. dollar.

"There must be one price which is the one amount from the government, so it is about a game which is not focused or centralized between the banking, central bank, the politicians and the rights of the people," said local resident Yousef Abd Al. "So those four stakeholders, actually there is no governance in between, and that will lead actually to what you are seeing now."

Meanwhile, residents nationwide who have depended on a stable national currency feel they will be losing money because of the new exchange rate.

"We are here to tell them that the revolution will stay, the revolution will not die and the revolution will go on in all parts of Lebanon," said protester Hassan Makahal. "You are putting us in trouble, you are taking the coronavirus as a pretext."

Anti-government protests has been ongoing since October as the country has seen its worst economic crisis since the Lebanese Civil War in 1975.

H.R. McMaster: Power is 'going to shift' away from Putin during coronavirus pandemic

Russian President Vladimir Putin's apparent mismanagement of the coronavirus pandemic could allow "a potential new leader of Russia" to rival the Kremlin strongman, according to one of President Trump's top former advisers. "I think power is certainly going to shift really away from him to others," Retired Army Gen. H.R. McMaster said during a Hoover Institution event. McMaster, the president's second White House national security adviser, oversaw the development of the 2017 National Security Strategy that highlighted Russia's attempts "to weaken U.S. influence in the world and divide us from our allies and partners." The coronavirus emerged at an inconvenient time for those efforts because it interrupted some of Putin's plans to consolidate power at a time when he is already beset by falling oil prices and a struggling economy. "It has a very interesting historical parallel because the Soviet Union started to tremble - it had a lot of weakness - when oil prices collapsed," a Baltic official told the Washington Examiner in response to McMaster's comments. "So, from an historical perspective, it might be right."

Putin began the year intending for these spring months to feature a sustained campaign to burnish his political image and eliminate impediments to his rule. He scheduled a referendum for Wednesday that was designed to ratify a plan to amend the constitution so that he could remain in power until 2036, a vote that was to have been followed by a high-profile annual celebration of victory in World War II. Instead, both events were delayed due to the coronavirus, and Putin disappeared from public view rather than fill the void left by their absence with new programming. "All of a sudden, all his efforts to solidify power were overshadowed by the COVID-19 outbreak," Alisa Muzergues, a foreign policy analyst at GLOBSEC in the Slovak Republic, told the Washington Examiner. "The prices for oil, which is the backbone of the Russian already shattered economy, collapsed. And the myth of his strong image, which he and his entourage have been so carefully working on and projecting both inside and outside Russia, could be ruined." His absence created the space, and the necessity, for local officials to act independently of the Kremlin.

"When Putin was away, hiding in his own dacha, local governors took a lot of control fighting pandemic, so people trust more than before local governments," the Baltic official said. "In Russia, it's a big thing when you are starting your own initiatives without the czar." Putin has gripped the top of the Kremlin's greasy pole for more than 20 years, in part because his prospective rivals tend to find themselves marginalized or even murdered before they can mount a serious challenge. "Putin was very clever, he kind of either killed or bought all the potential competitors and political opponents," the Baltic official continued. "The ones that he couldn't buy or couldn't subdue, he either killed or put in jail." Yet Putin needs the regional governors and local officials to succeed in containing the outbreak, analysts agree, in order to avoid popular anger spreading alongside the contagion. "The ruble has crashed to four-year lows, the Russian central bank warned the economy could shrink by 6 percent this year," Muzergues wrote in an email. "In reality, the situation can get much worse, and it will be especially felt in the regions, which might become the epicenters of the expression of discontent." "Putin managed to outlive crises before, but this combination of challenges and constantly growing discontent in Russian society might become fatal for his governance,". she added in an email.

The Baltic official was cautious not to forecast any major upheaval. "The Kremlin has a very solid grip on power - at least, that's what it seems from outside," the official said. "In Russia, it's always very unpredictable. Like, nobody also expects the many revolutions that happened in Russia, but they happened." Yet they all agreed that "the pressure on Putin is certainly going to mount," as McMaster put it Thursday. And if power shifts away from a leader who has chosen to oppose U.S. interests in multiple disputes around the world, then, McMaster added, it might flow to "others who view Russia's future more as aligned with Europe and the West than with China's Communist Party."

Federal Reserve scraps transfer limits on bank savings accounts

The U.S. Federal Reserve announced Friday that banks can now allow account holders to make an unlimited number of withdrawals and transfers from their savings accounts.

The central bank updated its rules to scrap the six-per-month limit that had previously existed for such accounts. The Fed said the move would help ensure people can access their funds "at a time when financial events associated with the coronavirus pandemic have made such access more urgent."

The Fed said it removed the limit because a recent policy shift had rendered it unnecessary.

In March, the Fed scrapped its reserve requirements for bank accounts as part of a broader effort to keep funds flowing to businesses and households amid the pandemic. Previously, banks were required to hold a certain amount of reserves against funds in "transaction accounts," like checking accounts, that saw money frequently coming and going. banks did not have to hold similar reserves against savings accounts, but were limited in how often money could be moved from them.

The Fed said that after it eliminated reserve requirements for all types of accounts, it was no longer necessary to treat savings accounts differently.

now if they curb account access this is useless.

'I really screwed up': CEO of Norway's US$1 trillion oil fund issues grovelling apology for private jet flight

Norway's US$1 trillion oil fund has found itself in a scandal of its own making as its outgoing CEO and the hedge fund manager set to replace him are in hot water over a swanky private jet flight that broke compliance rules.

The outgoing boss of Norges bank Investment Management, Yngve Slyngstad, wrote an internal memo to employees saying he "really screwed up" and damaged the sovereign wealth fund's reputation by accepting the flight paid for by Nicolai Tangen, who is due to take over the reins of the fund in September.

The scandal prompted Norway's central bank, which houses the fund, to agree to cover the costs of the November 2019 flight from Philadelphia to Oslo following a splashy seminar hosted by Tengen, the founder of the AKO Capital hedge fund. More than two dozen other high-profile Norwegians, including government ministers and business people, were also on the flight.

Muh Technocracy

How FB is enabling digital sovereign currency and positioning itself for influence thereof.

From article in MIT Technology Review (thoth below):

A key piece of feedback from regulators was "the potential for a multi-currency Libra coin to interfere with monetary sovereignty," according to the updated Libra white paper. So there's a new strategy: The Libra Association, the nonprofit that Facebook has stood up to manage the currency, will issue multiple stablecoins denominated in single currencies. There will still be a Libra coin, but it will be a "digital composite of some of the single-currency stablecoins available on the Libra network."

A stable coin for a single currency? How does that mitigate the potential for "Libra coin to interfere with monetary sovereignty"?

A digital composite of stable coins of single currencies is still....a stable coin of many currencies.

A welcome mat for central banks. The new approach will create a "clear path for seamlessly integrating central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) as they become available," according to the new white paper. It adds that if a central bank were to develop a digital representation of one of the currencies already on the network, the Libra Association could simply replace the single-currency stablecoin with the CBDC.

"A clear path for seamlessly integrating central bank digital currencies" sounds like a partnership with central banks to launch digital currencies on the Facebook Libra platform. How can such a partnership not have the potential for "Libra coin to interfere with monetary sovereignty"?

BOJ To Launch Unlimited QE, Double Corporate Bond Purchases

One day after the ECB announced that it - just like the Fed - would purchases fallen angle junk bonds, the BOJ, afraid it would be left behind in the global race to crush one's currency, is reportedly preparing to abandon its 80 trillion yen a year purchase limit for JGBs and will replace it with unlimited QE - also just like what the Fed unveiled exactly one month ago - when it meets for its next policy meeting on Monday, the Nikkei reports.

Additionally, the BOJ is also set to double purchase targets for CP and corporate bonds, while keeping its Yield Curve Control in place, targeting the 10-year JGB at around 0% and maintaining negative rate at -0.1%.

While we wish Kuroda the best of luck in overtaking the Fed and ECB in nationalizing the market, we will remind the central banker that it is not an issue of monetization demand, but rather supply, that has kept Japan's QE in check, with the annual amount of bonds purchased by the central bank declining consistently every year as there are simply not enough bonds available in the open market for the central bank to buy, and is also one of the reasons why Japan has been urged by various entities to boost its fiscal stimulus to provide the BOJ with the "helicopter money" ammo it so desperately needs to keep the Japanese economy running. Following the news, the USD/JPY spiked around 40 pips to 107.85 now that the BOJ is clearly doing what it can to crush the yen. while US Treasury 10-year yields tumbled back below 0.61%, 1bp richer on the day, as traders are starting to contemplate that the next BOJ move may be to buy US debt.

this took a little longer to materialize but knew it was coming. They own upwards of about 80% of Japanese equity's and the ETF markets there. When the Yen gets to about 110-112 is where the BOJ will start to talk about moar printing of that currency.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND THE CIVIL WAR (1861 - 1865)
With the central bank killed off, fractional reserve banking moved like a virus through numerous state chartered banks instead causing the instability this form of economics thrives on. When people lose their homes someone else wins them for a fraction of their worth. Depression is good news to the lender; but war causes even more debt and dependency than anything else, so if the money changers couldn't have their central bank with a license to print money, a war it would have to be. We can see from this quote of the then chancellor of Germany that slavery was not the only cause for the American Civil War. "The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War by the high financial powers of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the US, if they remained as one block, and as one nation, would attain economic and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world."
Otto von Bismark chancellor of Germany 1876 On the 12th of April 1861 this economic war began. Predictably Lincoln, needing money to finance his war effort, went with his secretary of the treasury to New York to apply for the necessary loans. The money changers wishing the Union to fail offered loans at 24% to 36%. Lincoln declined the offer. An old friend of Lincoln's, Colonel Dick Taylor of Chicago was put in charge of solving the problem of how to finance the war. His solution is recorded as this. "Just get Congress to pass a bill authorising the printing of full legal tender treasury notes… and pay your soldiers with them and go ahead and win your war with them also."
Colonel Dick Taylor When Lincoln asked if the people of America would accept the notes Taylor said. "The people or anyone else will not have any choice in the matter, if you make them full legal tender. They will have the full sanction of the government and be just as good as any money; as Congress is given that express right by the Constitution."
Colonel Dick Taylor 1 Lincoln agreed to try this solution and printed 450 million dollars worth of the new bills using green ink on the back to distinguish them from other notes. "The government should create, issue and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the government and the buying power of consumers….. The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Government's greatest creative opportunity. By the adoption of these principles, the long-felt want for a uniform medium will be satisfied. The taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest, discounts and exchanges. The financing of all public enterprises, the maintenance of stable government and ordered progress, and the conduct of the Treasury will become matters of practical administration. The people can and will be furnished with a currency as safe as their own government. Money will cease to be the master and become the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the money power."
Abraham Lincoln 2 From this we see that the solution worked so well Lincoln was seriously considering adopting this emergency measure as a permanent policy.

Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanuel Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week.

Project Syndicate
Opinion: Soros: The EU should issue perpetual bonds to fund the economic recovery from coronavirus
Published: April 22, 2020 at 1:00 a.m. ET
By George Soros

NEW YORK (Project Syndicate) - European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has announced that Europe will need about ?1 trillion ($1.1 trillion) to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. This money could be used to establish a European Recovery Fund. But where will the money come from?

I propose that the European Union should raise the money needed for the Recovery Fund by selling "perpetual bonds," on which the principal does not have to be repaid (although they can be repurchased or redeemed at the issuer's discretion). Authorizing this issue should be the first priority for the forthcoming European Council summit on Thursday.

It would, of course, be unprecedented for the EU to issue perpetual bonds, especially in such a large amount. But other governments have relied on perpetual bonds in the past. The best-known example is Britain, which used consolidated bonds (Consols) to finance the Napoleonic Wars and war bonds to finance World War I. These bond issues were traded in London until 2015, when both were redeemed. In the 1870s, the U.S. Congress authorized the Treasury to issue Consols to consolidate already existing bonds, and they were issued in subsequent years.

The EU is facing a once-in-a-lifetime war against a virus that is threatening not only people's lives, but also the very survival of the Union. If member states start protecting their national borders against even their fellow EU members, this would destroy the principle of solidarity on which the Union is built.

Instead, Europe needs to resort to extraordinary measures to deal with an extraordinary situation that is hitting all of the EU's members. This can be done without fear of setting a precedent that could justify issuing common EU debt once normalcy has been restored. Issuing bonds that carried the full faith and credit of the EU would provide a political endorsement of what the European central bank has already done: removed practically all the restrictions on its bond purchasing program.

Perpetual bonds have three additional advantages that make them appropriate for these circumstances.

For starters, because perpetual bonds never have to be repaid, they would impose a surprisingly light fiscal burden on the EU, despite the considerable financial firepower they would mobilize. The EU, moreover, would not have to refinance them when they came due, make amortization payments, or even set aside money (for example, in a sinking fund) for their eventual repayment.

The EU would be obligated only to make regular interest payments on them. A ?1 trillion perpetual bond with a 0.5% coupon would cost the EU budget a mere ?5 billion per year. This is less than 3% of the EU's 2020 budget.

The second advantage is more technical but almost as important. The market may not be able to absorb a ?1 trillion issue all at once. By issuing a perpetual bond, the EU could raise this amount in installments, without creating a new bond each time.

The third advantage is that an EU-issued perpetual bond would be a very attractive asset for the ECB's bond-purchase programs. Since the maturity of a perpetual bond is always the same, the ECB would not be required to rebalance its portfolio.

The EU does not need to create any new mechanism or structure to issue the bonds, because the EU has issued bonds in the past. The proceeds should be used for investments and grants related to fighting the pandemic. The European Commission would disperse the funds either directly or through the member states and other institutions (such as municipal governments) that are directly involved in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.

The disruption caused by the pandemic should be temporary, but only if Europe's leaders take the extraordinary measures needed to avoid long-term damage to the EU. That is why the EU Recovery Fund is so desperately needed. Financing it with perpetual bonds is the easiest, fastest, and least costly way to establish it.

central banks Try To Stave Off Depression, Could Buy Trillions More In Assets

The U.S. Federal Reserve has moved the most aggressively, starting with its initial $2.3 trillion in loan arrangements for local governments, and small and midsize businesses
G-7 central banks could hold $6.8 trillion in assets by the time the crisis is over
The G-7 banks bought $1.4 trillion in assets in March and are on pace to equal that total in April

central banks, attempting to cushion global economies from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, could buy as much as $6.8 trillion in assets before the crisis ends. Economists agree the virtual shutdown of the world economy has triggered a recession, the traditional definition notwithstanding, and governments have been scrambling to keep the downturn from slipping into a depression.

A Bloomberg Economics analysis indicates central banks in the Group of Seven nations bought $1.4 trillion in financial assets in March and were on pace to at least match that in April. The monthly total is five times as great as the previous record in April 2009 as the world was climbing out of the Great Recession.

The U.S. Federal Reserve has been the most aggressive, expanding its balance sheet by some $41 billion a day through April 15. The European central bank, bank of Japan, which pioneered the concept, and the bank of England also have ramped up their asset purchases with Canada, New Zealand and Australia also making large-scale moves, Bloomberg said. Even smaller economies are considering action.

The New York Times reported Brazil is debating whether to give its central bank limited quantitative easing authority.

The Fed kicked off the buying spree April 9 with an initial $2.3 trillion in loan arrangements for local governments, and small and midsize businesses. It also set up dollar swap lines with several other central banks and began buying municipal and corporate bonds and exchange traded funds before kicking in $700 billion for U.S. Treasuries, mortgages and agency securities. It then lifted the $700 billion limit.

The Fed didn't unwind its balance sheet from the last recession until 2017.

Former Fed Chair Janel Yellen has said she thinks Congress should give the central bank the authority to buy equities but that is not an action the Fed needs to take immediately.

Also discussed is how China's "adoption advantage" will "allow it to leapfrog the U.S." in several new fields, including "AI medical diagnosis" and "smart cities." It then asserts that "the future will be decided at the intersection of private enterprise and policy leaders between China and the U.S." If this coordination over the global AI market does not occur, the document warns that "we [the U.S.] risk being left out of the discussions where norms around AI are set for the rest of our lifetimes."

The presentation also dwells considerably on how "the main battleground [in technology] are not the domestic Chinese and US markets," but what it refers to as the NBU (next billion users) markets, where it states that "Chinese players will aggressively challenge Silicon Valley." In order to challenge them more successfully, the presentation argues that, "just like we [view] the market of teenagers as a harbinger for new trends, we should look at China."

The document also expresses concerns about China exporting AI more extensively and intensively than the U.S., saying that China is "already crossing borders" by helping to build facial databases in Zimbabwe and selling image recognition and smart city systems to Malaysia. If allowed to become "the unambiguous leader in AI," it says that "China could end up writing much of the rulebook of international norms around the deployment of AI" and that it would "broaden China's sphere of influence amongst an international community that increasingly looks to the pragmatic authoritarianism of China and Singapore as an alternative to Western liberal democracy."

What will replace America's "legacy systems"?

Given that the document makes it quite clear that "legacy systems" in the U.S. are impeding its ability to prevent China from "leapfrogging" ahead in AI and then dominating it for the foreseeable future, it is also important to examine what the document suggests should replace these "legacy systems" in the U.S.

As previously mentioned, one "legacy system" cited early on in the presentation is the main means of payment for most Americans, cash and credit/debit cards. The presentation asserts, in contrast to these "legacy systems" that the best and most advanced system is moving entirely to smartphone-based digital wallets.

It notes specifically the main mobile wallet provider in India, PayTM, is majority owned by Chinese companies. It quotes an article, which states that "a big break came [in 2016] when India canceled 86% of currency in circulation in an effort to cut corruption and bring more people into the tax net by forcing them to use less cash." At the time, claims that India's 2016 "currency reform" would be used as a stepping stone towards a cashless society were dismissed by some as "conspiracy theory." However, last year, a committee convened by India's central bank (and led by an Indian tech oligarch who also created India's massive civilian biometric database) resulted in the Indian government's "Cashless India" program.

Regarding India's 2016 "currency reform," the NSCAI document then asserts that "this would be unfathomable in the West. And unsurprisingly, when 86% of the cash got cancelled and nobody had a credit card, mobile wallets in India exploded, laying the groundwork for a far more advanced payments ecosystem in India than the US." However, it has become increasingly less unfathomable in light of the current coronavirus crisis, which has seen efforts to reduce the amount of cash used because paper bills may carry the virus as well as efforts to introduce a Federal Reserve-backed "digital dollar."

"Fed Can't Print Gold": BofA Calls Gold "Ultimate Store Of Value", Raises Price Target To $3,000

Back in April 2011, just before gold exploded to a record above $1,900 following the US credit rating downgrade, we first said - and Kyle Bass echoed - that the main reason behind our long-running, bullish view on gold is that the Fed can't print gold , unlike every other asset.

Today, with a 9 year delay, bank of America has caught up with where we were at the start of the decade, and repeating virtually everything we have said - consistently each day for over 11 years - says that while "the size of major central bank balance sheets has been stable at 21 to 28% of GDP in the past decade just like the gold price" things are changing rapidly and "as central banks & governments double their balance sheets & fiscal deficits we up our 18m gold target from $2000 to $3000/oz." And while it's not all smooth sailing, with the bank warning that "a strong USD backdrop, falling equity market volatility, and weak jewelry demand in India & China may remain headwinds", it is now clear that even Wall Street's agenda is aligned with that of all those who have been calling that the biggest beneficiary of central bank lunacy will be the "barbarous relic", one which according to the most clueless person of the 21st century only had value because it was "tradition." And yet here we are, when one of the biggest US banks just said that gold is the "ultimate store of value."

Who to believe: a pathological liar (i.e., a central banker) or someone who finally sees the light?

Incidentally, the name of the BofA report was "The Fed can't print gold", which was a delightful flashback to what we said some nine years ago.

Here are the key highlights from the report:

Gold prices have performed well in the recent period

As the ultimate store of value, gold prices have performed well during the past 15 months, posting a rally of over 10% since the Federal Reserve did a monetary policy U-turn in January 2019. Gold has also delivered a strong performance against other asset classes YTD. Of course, it has not been a straight line up, and gold did sell off hard for a brief period in March. The swing in gold prices mirrored the down and then up move in real interest rates. Now our CTA models suggest gold positioning is light, likely because of the spike in volatility and the mechanical drop in the gold Sharpe ratio. But this constraint could change as volatility keeps falling quickly across financial markets.

Now, significant monetary, fiscal easing around the world...

Due to the Covid-19 lockdowns, US GDP could go down by 30% YoY in 2Q20, the steepest drop in modern history. Other countries like Japan will likely experience a 21.8% decline in output in 2Q20, while China just reported a contraction of 6.8% in 1Q20. As central banks rush to expand their balance sheets and backstop asset values and consumer prices, a lot of risks could end up being socialized. The size of major central bank balance sheets has been stable at around 25% of GDP for the last decade or so, just like the gold price. As economic output contracts sharply, fiscal outlays surge, and central bank balance sheets double, fiat currencies could come under pressure. And investors will aim for gold. Hence, we mark-to-market our forecasts and now project an average gold price of $1,695/oz in 2020 and $2,063/oz in 2021.

Q Research General 11354: (You) Are The Key that opens all doors Edition

central banks Have Pumped An Annualized $23.4 Trillion Into The Financial System

You know there is a lot of confusion in the market when even fundamental, deep-value investing bloggers legends like Howard Marks now flip-flop every single week (accompanied by one investor letter after another) from bearish to bullish and back again, as if so much has changed besides, you know, the stock market:

April 20: Widely followed investor Howard Marks says the stock market rebound is not reflecting reality

April 14: Howard Marks Bemoans Fed Help for Junk Bonds, Leveraged Debt

April 8: Howard Marks says it's time to stop playing defense: 'We're buying today when we find good value'

April 1: Investors can do some buying as markets are 'a lot cheaper,' but key is moderation, says billionaire investor Howard Marks

March 16: Howard Marks says the market is 'pricing in a bad scenario' and there is value for investors

But while Marks may simply be talking both sides of his book - see "Howard Marks's Oaktree Seeks $15 Billion for Biggest Distress Fund Ever", the vast majority of traders have legitimately lost the plot, and merely follow momentum or whatever the algos are doing at any given moment.

As Deutsche bank's Jim Reid explains, the most confusing thing in the market at the moment is the huge dichotomy between what will possibly be one of the worst synchroniszd global economic slumps in history against what is undoubtedly the largest ever intervention. On the second point, DB's Alan Ruskin showed that global central bank balance sheet expansion has already spiked by $2.7 trillion since early March which now comfortably eclipses the full peak 12-month increase seen during the GFC (under $2.5tn). This is the same amount as the annual total GDP of either the UK or French economies. Two thirds of this increase has come from the Fed so far.

Again using Reid's back of the envelope calculations, "given that the global economy is worth around $80 trillion dollars annually and that the IMF last week said it would fall -3% in 2020 (in real terms under the base case) that's potentially 'only' $2.4 trillion of lost activity. Relative to the pre-covid trend they forecast $9 trillion of global GDP losses by the end of 2021." And even if one thinks these numbers are a bit low, when central banks have so far pumped in an annualized $23.4 trillion into the financial system you can see how it's hard to get a feel for where markets can go, besides eventually becoming a replica of the world's best performing market, of course - that of Venezuela.

And while it unlikely that central banks will keep up that pace of liquidity injections unless economies fall even further but could you really have a situation in 1-2 months' time where economies are still struggling to fully open and yet equity markets are back at record highs? While Reid doesn't think so one certainly can't rule it out given the ginormous liquidity injections. As he concludes "crazy times and we haven't even mentioned the government injections."

And speaking of Alan Ruskin, here is why the German bank's macro strategist said that "Global QE is already on another scale."

And speaking of Alan Ruskin, here is why the German bank's macro strategist said that "Global QE is already on another scale."

By almost any metric central bank balance sheet expansion in the last few weeks has already exceeded anything seen in the 2008/9 crisis period. In the last six weeks alone, G10 central banks have expanded their collective balance sheet by $2.7 trillion, and 2/3rds of this comes from the Fed.

The Fed has stepped up into a role sometimes seen by China, in its credit policies, and sheer scale of support.

The steep ascent of central bank balance sheets has of course been more than matched by the collapse in the global economy. Unprecedented QE policy accommodation will then build substantially from here, which warrants asking all the usual questions about what this might reap? The answers unfortunately belie simplicity. QE delivers very different results depending on circumstance, but in general, the marginal risk appetite gains from QE will wane with time.

The Fed appears to be working under the premise that in past crises of historic proportion, there are almost no occasions when the monetary authorities are remembered and accused of doing too much. So why not load the bazooka with the kitchen sink and go nuclear?

Theoretical models typically would see large scale QE as negative for a currency, but in this instance, the initial positive QE impact on risk (helping EM and commodity currencies) but also seen as an alternative to negative rates, is a mixed bag for the USD, enough to leave the USD choppy at elevated levels….

Q Research General #11351: A Meme Star Is Born Edition

Chinese and Western Intelligence Services Hunting Down Telecom Executives

Ben Fulford, 4/20/20

The so-called coronavirus pandemic has now been definitively traced to 5G electromagnetic attacks, multiple sources agree.
In order to stop the hardliners and prevent all-out war, an active hunt has begun for all industry executives and oligarchs involved in the 5G rollout, Western and Asian secret intelligence sources agree.

The targets include the now extinct Bush family and the Chinese Soong family, the sources say.

The hunt is necessary to stop full-scale thermonuclear war because "our analysis of the forensics does show a provocation of war...that is to say we see a full all-out war as highly probable," MI6 sources say.
Chinese hardliners, for their part, are pushing for the destruction of New York in retaliation for the attack on Wuhan, something that could also precipitate a world-destroying war, Asian Secret Society sources say.

Well now take a look at the money issued in the U.S. and the UK to commemorate this pandemic attack. The first is a fruit-bat (the alleged source of the coronavirus) quarter issued in 2020 by the U.S. mint.

https://www.usmint.gov/coins/coin-medal-programs/america-the-beautiful-quarters/national-park-of-american-samoa

The second is the new UK 20-pound note featuring a picture of a 5G cellphone tower and above it a coronavirus.

https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/banknotes/polymer-20-pound-note

This shows how arrogant these people are and how they plan long term, while the rest of us must react to what is immediately happening.

However, that is no longer the case with both the British Secret Service and the Pentagon White Hats now actively targeting the families that own the Federal Reserve Board, the BIS, the European central bank and the bank of Japan.

Pentagon sources say "the death of [George] Bush Jr's first Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill may signal the purge of Wall Street, as the Fed was taken over and the exchange stabilization fund (ESF) diverted from CIA and the Deep State." Also, "banks may be nationalized and forced to pay a tax on all financial transactions to replace the unconstitutional income tax," the sources say.

"The Bushes senior and junior were also involved in the theft of Tesla patents. They kill and steal just like all Mafia," the MI6 sources say.

The aim of the current pandemic engineered by the Bush/Rothschild faction is to centralize control and carry out a eugenic purge of the human population, CIA sources confirm.

In the U.S., 5G is being strongly pushed by Attorney General William Barr and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Barr has also prevented 911 truth from being disclosed. So those of you who think Barr with his "FISA Gate," is a white hat, think again.
These men need to be removed from the U.S. body politic ASAP. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/16/william-barr-mike-pompeo-support-fcc-191967

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/ag-barr-blocks-release-911-documents-despite-promises-victims-families

Let's explain why this "pandemic" attack on the human race is centered on 5G by quoting a reader comment based on the work of three Nobel Prize-winning doctors:

"5G electromagnetic radiation injures human cellular DNA. The exposed cells (of all kinds within the human target) respond by producing a cascade of immunological protective substances. These substances are packaged in an intracellular structure called an endosome. The endosome is expelled from the cell, becoming an exosome.

The exosome circulates and binds to the ACE 2 receptors of the lung, gut, and heart.
The exposed cell response is the same if the exposure is 5G or COVID-19 (the flu).
The immunological chemicals in the exosome package attack the ACE 2 possessing cells producing the effect of 5G radiation exposure or the flu, which is being covered up as COVID-19.

The COVID-19 case rate is 96% in 5G areas and only 4% in 4G or lower areas.

Q Research General #11349: Muh Petro Dollar! Edition

Rather Than Being Drained, the Swamp Is Draining the U.S. Treasury Via the New York Fed

The Federal Reserve's role under the U.S. law that governs it (the Federal Reserve Act) is to function as the nation's central bank and lender of last resort to deposit-taking commercial banks in a crisis and to set monetary policy to achieve the dual objectives of stable prices (preventing deflation as well as runaway inflation) while maximizing employment.

But since December 2007, the Federal Reserve has simply written its own playbook, independent of the law that governs it. The Fed has decided to outsource to one of its 12 regional Federal Reserve banks, the New York Fed, the role of propping up the swamp on Wall Street.

The New York Fed's own playbook involves dangling a shiny object for mainstream media in a "look here but not there" operation. During the 2008 financial collapse on Wall Street that took down the U.S. economy in the worst crisis since the Great Depression, the shiny object was a four-letter acronym called TARP, short for Troubled Asset Relief Program.

TARP was a congressionally-approved taxpayer bailout of the Wall Street banks, including those that had brought on the crisis by turning their federally-insured banking unit into a derivatives casino. Mainstream media was all over TARP as it doled out chunks of $10 billion to $45 billion to the largest banks on Wall Street in the fall of 2008, as well as lesser amounts to smaller banks caught up in the panic.

But while the $700 billion TARP shiny object was all over the front pages of newspapers, the New York Fed, with nary a vote in Congress or even the awareness of Congress, was running a secret $29 trillion Wall Street bailout. The New York Fed was using its unlimited ability to create money out of thin air to ply Wall Street banks and trading houses, as well as global foreign banks and central banks, with the lion's share of $29 trillion in revolving loans, at a fraction of the interest rate these financial firms would have been charged in the open market. Those revolving loans began secretly in December 2007 and ran through at least July 21, 2010.

So desperate was the Fed to keep that $29 trillion a secret from the American people that it battled in court for more than two years, arguing that the American people had no right to this information. It lost that battle.

This time around, the Fed and New York Fed have brazenly upped their game because they have a much bigger shiny object: a deadly pandemic that is dominating the news and effectively eliminating any network or newspaper coverage of what is happening behind the scenes at the New York Fed.

What is happening at the New York Fed is the same thing that happened during the financial crisis of 2007 to 2010. Average Americans are getting the short-end of the stick in the stimulus bill known as the CARES Act while Wall Street banks are getting astronomical sums from the New York Fed's unlimited money spigot.

Even worse, in what is beginning to resemble a conspiracy of silence, no mainstream news outlet has reported on the more than $9 trillion in super cheap repo loans the New York Fed has pumped into Wall Street trading houses or the fact that those loans began on September 17, 2019 - four months before the first coronavirus case was reported in the United States and at a time when President Trump was bragging on TV about the unprecedented robustness of the U.S. economy...

I have inside info. The USA has billions of printed treasury notes in vaults located in every state.
There are Treasury banks already situated and ready to open up for business as soon as a state of emergency is called.
The design and distribution of the Treasury dollars has been a top secret underground project ever since Trump took office.
Trump was hoping to make it to the second term before implementing this plan, but it seems ((they)) are forcing his hand with this coronavirus economic black swan.
((they)) don't know yet that we are ready to completely do away with their monopoly currency and central bank and go back to a constitutional Treasury based money system.

Iran's central bank Head Urges IMF to Approve Virus Loan

Iran's central bank governor urged the International Monetary Fund to resist U.S. pressure and approve its application for financing to help bridge a 10 billion-euro ($10.9 billion) deficit as the country's sanctions-hit economy struggles to cope with the coronavirus pandemic.

The Islamic Republic asked the IMF on March 6 for $5 billion in loans to help finance its efforts to combat the disease and support an economy severely weakened by U.S. sanctions that have devastated oil revenues and isolated the state from the global banking system. While the U.S. has said it will block the application, on April 15 the IMF's director for the Middle East and central Asia said it's proceeding with Iran's request for assistance.

"The last time I checked, it's not the United States running the IMF, but its management and the board of governors who oversee the work and ensure that the IMF delivers on its mandate," Abdolnaser Hemmati, head of the central bank of Iran, said in written answers to questions sent by Bloomberg.

The U.S. says sanctions don't apply to humanitarian goods such as pharmaceuticals, medical supplies and food, but Iran says they are preventing it from accessing its own money, which is frozen overseas and hurting its ability to pay for imports. Iran's economy has contracted significantly since the U.S. abandoned the 2015 nuclear deal and enforced its toughest sanctions on the Islamic Republic to date.

Iran is the site of the worst coronavirus outbreak in the Middle East with more than 5,000 deaths and over 80,000 infections. The country started easing restrictions on some businesses on April 11, seeking to boost the economy, and two-thirds of government employees have now been allowed to return to work. "We have lost so many lives, as the Americans and Europeans have lost, and my thoughts and prayers go with them," Hemmati said, appealing directly to Kristalina Georgieva, chair and managing director of the IMF. "The time to act is now." According to Hemmati, U.S. sanctions and its decision to add the Iranian central bank to its list of "specially designated nationals and blocked persons" in September 2019 prevent Iran from accessing its own money, which would be "more than enough" to cover the 10 billion-euro shortfall.

"central bank reserves are under U.S. sanctions overseas, which is illegal and unilateral, and I want to be clear about this. What we are saying is that the sanctions should be lifted altogether, however, sadly, there are actors in the U.S. government that have little regards for international law and order," Hemmati said.

Iran is separately seeking a $50 million loan from the World bank, marking the first time since 2005 that the country has applied for such a loan from the Washington-based institution, a deputy health minister said on state TV on Saturday. It has also asked for a 130 million-euro loan from the Jeddah-based Islamic Development bank.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has fiercely opposed Iran's request to the IMF, accusing it of seeking to funnel the money into "corrupt purposes."

The U.S. imposed its toughest sanctions regime to date on Iran in 2018 after President Donald Trump abandoned the 2015 nuclear deal, which was designed to address concerns related to the country's atomic activities. Trump's so-called "maximum pressure" strategy against Iran aims to force the Islamic Republic into submitting to a series of demands by Washington including a complete end to its support for Hezbollah and Iraqi militias.

china is a corporate entity what we know of china is not what a nation is, it is a communist group who created a trade corp. and is a middle man building the largest industrial nation in history with a enslaved and captive population.
They actually even have two currencies, one for the public use and one for trading between the central bank and govt and for foreign trade settlements.

Fed Cuts Pace Of Treasury QE By 50% To "Only" $15 Billion Per Day, Yields Spike

From an initial $75 billion per day when the Fed announced the launch of Unlimited QE, the us central bank reduced its daily buying to $60 billion per day, then two weeks ago announced another 'taper' in its bond-buying program to $50 billion per day, which was followed by last week's reduction to 30 billion per day. Now, the Fed has slashed its buying by another 50%, to "only" $15BN per day. Having implicitly confirmed there is now a shortage of bonds - at least coupon bonds considering the $1.382 trillion flood in T-Bills and Cash Management Bills in the past two weeks to fund the stimulus package.
Additionally, the Fed will also taper its MBS buying from $15 billion to $10 billion in MBS per day next week:

Mon: $10.709b
Tue: $8.938b
Wed: $10.709b
Thur: $8.938b
Fri: $10.7019b

So, in aggregate, The Fed will buy a total of $125 billion of MBS/TSYs next week, still vastly more on a weekly basis than the largest QE programs monthly totals before this crisis, if well below the $625 billion in purchases conducted in the week starting March 23, when the financial system was once again on the verge of collapse and only the Fed could bail it out… just don't call it a bail out because nobody could have possibly anticipated an economic shock especially after banks repurchased trillions in their own stock in the past decade.

And for those curious, after the Fed mysteriously delayed the publication of its closely followed H.4.1 statement summarizing the size of its balance sheet on Thursday, the central bank updated the numbers this morning, which showed that as close of Aptil 15, the Fed's balance sheet was a record $6.368 trillion, up $285 billion on the week and up $2.4 trillion from a year ago.

For The First Time Ever, The Fed Will Monetize Double The Total Treasury Issuance

While daytraders look transfixed at a stock market which continues to surge higher even as the US has lost around 22 million jobs in the past month alone, something far more nefarious is taking place behind the scenes: the Fed is nationalizing (or privatizing, depending on whether one views the Fed as a public, or a private - which it actually is - entity) the entire capital market at a pace unseen before in history. It's not just the Fed: with QE officially back (and not in the cute "Not-QE" variant, but full blown global debt monetization), every single central bank is now actively injecting billions of liquidity into the stock market.

We show this chart just so all the idiots on TV (and in the Minneapolis Fed) who still claim the Fed has no impact on stock prices and instead stocks are driven off future earnings (which are now expected to be down 70% according to JPM) will mercifully shut up for ever.

But back to the Fed, where we bring up something Torsten Slok said today, and which has to go straight to the heart of the issue whether MMT will unleash a new era of socialist prosperity and utopia for everyone, or instead, it will result in a fiscal crisis and the loss of the dollar's reserve status, to wit:

At the peak in late March, the Fed was buying $75bn in Treasuries every day, and we are now down to "only" $30bn per day, see also here. These enormous Fed purchases combined with rates moving sideways in recent weeks make you wonder where 10-year rates would have been if the Fed had not intervened. As the Fed gradually steps away over the coming weeks, and Treasury issuance continues to increase to finance the fiscal stimulus, the market will be focusing more and more on demand and supply in the US Treasury market.

And as we ride into the sunset of US monetary supremacy and into the gaping chasm of economic, financial and fiscal turmoil now that helicopter money has been unleashed without anyone apparently realizing what has just happened, we highlight the following chart, also from Slok, which lays out succinctly what it now takes to avoid a full-blown fiscal crisis: a Fed which is monetizing twice the Treasury's net issuance. From Slow:

When the Fed did QE in the years following the 2008 financial crisis monthly Treasury purchases never exceeded US Treasury net issuance, but the Fed is now on track to buy double the amount of net issuance

Physical Gold And Silver Continue To Disappear

I was watching one of the Fed Governors who made the assertion that "low interest rates would be here for a long time" and I thought to myself this guy must be on drugs because the U.S. has had low interest rates for 12 years now, which is already a long time.

The current shortage in physical gold and silver was developing many months before anyone ever heard of "coronavirus." In fact, what's happening now as central banks print trillions of paper currency further validates Gresham Law. Bad money drives out good money - physical gold and silver will be hoarded and fiat paper central bank money will be used for transactions.

Rob Kreinz of GoldSilverPros invited me onto his podcast to discuss the ramifications of rampant money printing and the rush into physical gold and silver:

Dear President Donald Trump,
End the deficit, pay off the national debt as it comes due, get rid of
Obama Care by giving us real national healthcare, pay for education:
it is all possible by draining the monetary swamp of the fraudulent debt
money system. Guess what it also does? It unifies our country by
addressing the very real concerns of all Americans.
The U.S. monetary system is so corrupt that almost nobody
understands it. But it is really quite simple.
- Almost all of what we use for money is created out of thin air by
banks when they make loans.
- This debt money exists only as debt, as the debts are repaid the
money is extinguished from the bank's bookkeeping.
- We must therefore be in debt, individually and through our
government, or there would be no money and society would
grind to a halt.
- It gets worse, there is no money created with the loans for the
significant interest that we must pay. This makes it even more
impossible to reduce the level of indebtedness and insures that it
must perpetually increase.
- The Federal Reserve is no more federal than Federal Express.
All 12 Federal Reserve banks are owned entirely by the private
banks in their districts.
- Even our currency, which accounts for only about a tenth of the
total money supply, is printed by the government and then given
to the Federal Reserve for the cost of printing to be distributed to
the banks. Our government is paid a nickel for a $1 bill and 14.3
cents for a $100 bill.
The only real money in this system are the coins in our pockets
and piggy banks. Our government is paid face value by the Fed
for every coin minted. Our government gets 30 cents for a
quarter and a nickel and it only gets 28.6 cents for two $100 bills.
This is not a misprint, the debt money banking system pays us
more for a nickel and a quarter than they do for two $100 bills.
I used the word fraudulent to describe this system, because the
monetary economists at the Fed, the politicians and the bankers
have not told us that this is how the system works. Most of them
probably don't ever know how it works, because the textbooks
that they have learned from also misrepresent what the system
is. For those that do know and haven't told us, shame on them.
Our economists, politicians and bankers are either ignorant or
supporters of fraud.
The bank of England, the UK's central bank and the model for
the Federal Reserve, unequivocally stated:
"In the modern economy, most money takes the form of bank
deposits. But how those bank deposits are created is often
misunderstood: the principal way is through commercial banks making
loans. '''Whenever a bank makes a loan, it simultaneously creates a
matching deposit in the borrower's bank account, thereby
creating new money.''' The reality of how money is created today
differs from the description found in some economics textbooks: -
Rather than banks receiving deposits when households save and then
lending them out, bank lending creates deposits."

TEHRAN (Tasnim) - President Hassan Rouhani said Iran is going to have a good year as all predictions suggest that the country's economic growth will be positive in year 1399, which has begun on March 20.

"We will have a good year ahead," he said, adding that all predictions suggest that Iran will experience positive economic growth this year.

A report from the central bank of Iran forecasts that the status of inflation will be better than the last two years, the president added.

He also dismissed foreign media reports that Iranians are suffering hardship, stressing that a good year is ahead despite the problems caused by the sanctions and the outbreak of coronavirus.

The stories run by the foreigners are total lies and baseless, Rouhani said, adding, "We will have appropriate conditions with support for each other, presence of people, and the devotion shown by the industrial, agricultural and service sectors, despite what the enemies are drawing."

China Adds Cash to banking System, Cuts Interest Rate on Loans

China's central bank cut interest rates and injected $14 billion into the financial system, bolstering measures aimed at countering the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic. The People's bank of China offered 100 billion yuan via the one-year medium-term lending facility, cutting the rate to 2.95% from 3.15%. Though there were no loans coming due Wednesday, some 200 billion yuan will mature on Friday. The central bank refrained from injecting liquidity with short-term reverse repurchase agreements for a 10th straight day. The move follows the PBOC's surprise announcement earlier this month that it will cut the interest rate it pays on banks' excess reserves and reduce the amount of cash that selected lenders need to hold. The latter, the first phase of which is effective from Wednesday, will free up about 400 billion yuan of liquidity in the financial system.

The Arab-Israeli alliance is fueling conflicts in the Middle East

The world is split between 2 spheres of influence, with the US and EU on 1 side, and Russia and China on the other.

There are 2 camps in the Middle East: those countries which work with 'Israel', and those who do not. The countries which have established relationships with 'Israel' are Turkey; United Arab Emirates (UAE); Saudi Arabia; Qatar; Bahrain; Oman; Jordan; Egypt. This group of countries is backed up by the US and the EU.

The countries which do not have a relationship with Israel are Syria; Lebanon; Iraq; Iran; Occupied Palestinian; Yemen; Algeria. This group of countries has established a very good relationship with Russia and China.

The world is split between 2 spheres of influence, with the US and EU on 1 side, and Russia and China on the other. This situation is very similar to the 'Cold War' years when the world was split between the Soviet Union and the US.

The Arab Gulf role in the Middle East conflicts

In Syria, since 2011 the Arab Gulf countries, allied with Turkey and 'Israel', have sent and trained terrorists, who are following the political ideology of Radical Islam, which is not a religion, or a sect. These countries have bowed to the pressure of the US sanctions on Syria, and have refused to do business with Syria, even on humanitarian items. They have also waged political war on Syria, by accepting the removal of Syria from the Arab League, which was proposed by Qatar at the beginning of the conflict.

In Libya, the Arab-Gulf countries have been funding both sides of a civil war, while stealing petroleum resources there. While Turkey and Qatar are funding and supporting the forces of Prime Minister Sarraj, the UAE, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia are funding and supporting the opposing forces of Field Marshall Haftar. Recently, it was revealed that the UAE bought Israeli military weapons and sent them to Haftar. Beginning in 2011, these countries participated in the 'regime change' project which saw Colonel Qaddafi removed from power, and murdered.

The chaos that exists in Iraq today began with the US military intervention in Iraq, which included 2 wars. The Arab Gulf countries, with their ally Israel, have funded and supported the Iraqi Kurdish separatists, who have been successful in dividing Iraq. It was the Arab Gulf countries that nurtured and gave birth to the political ideology we know as Radical Islam. The various terrorist groups, such as ISIS, Jibhat al Nusra, Al Qaeda, and others are all the creation of the Arab Gulf countries. The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 saw the stealing of petroleum resources, gold bullion from the central bank, and antiquities from the National Museum in Baghdad. This looting of Iraqi resources is continuing. The Arab Gulf countries have funded and supported differing Muslim sects to ensure the various groups will continue to fight, thus keeping Iraq weak and divided.

'''Statement Regarding Repurchase Operations
April 13, 2020'''

NY Fed Lays Out Plan to Pare Back Repo Liquidity Injections. The bank cited improved money-market conditions.

The Open Market Trading Desk (the Desk) at the Federal Reserve bank of New York has released the schedule of large-scale overnight and term repurchase agreement (repo) operations for the monthly period from April 14, 2020 through May 13, 2020.

The Desk intends to reduce the frequency of some repo operations during this monthly period in light of more stable repo market conditions. Beginning on Monday, May 4, 2020, the Desk intends to return to regularly conducting one overnight repo operation per day in the morning, and to remove the afternoon overnight repo operation. In addition, the frequency of three-month repo operations will be reduced to once every two weeks from once a week. The Desk will continue to conduct one-month repo operations once per week.

The Desk will continue to adjust repo operations as appropriate to ensure that the supply of reserves remains ample and to support the smooth functioning of short-term U.S. dollar funding markets, consistent with the FOMC directive to the Desk.

Global 'Jubilee' Looms As G20 Finalizes Debt Relief Program For World's Poorest Countries

Hours after Pope Francis on Easter Sunday morning said the debt burden on the most impoverished countries should be forgiven (aka debt jubilee), the Financial Times is now reporting that the G20 group is nearing a critical "action plan" to freeze debt servicing payments for poor countries to stave off an emerging-market meltdown.

The new relief program could be finalized on April 15 on a videoconference of finance ministers and central bank governors. The plan would "freeze on sovereign debt repayments for six or nine months, or possibly through to 2021," the official told the Times.

The official said developed countries and multilateral institutions would use this period to write up "very clear criteria, country-by-country of what exactly is going to happen. Is it debt relief totally? Is it just a deferment, a rescheduling?"

"For debt relief to happen, it would take time for it to be co-ordinated," the official said.

"But what is immediately needed is to give these people space so they don't need to worry about the cash flow and debt servicing going to other countries, and they can use that money for their immediate needs," the official said, who did not want to be named due to the sensitivity of the discussions.

Last week, the British-based Jubilee Debt Campaign called for a worldwide debt jubilee to avoid some of the world's poorest countries from collapsing into chaos amid the COVID-19 crisis.

The Takeover

We can't print ourselves out of this crisis again, but that isn't stopping the Federal Reserve from trying. Thursday's intervention program, the latest in a string of panic moves to keep the financial system afloat, constitutes a complete takeover attempt of the market ecosphere, only the buying of stocks directly is last missing piece of eventual complete central bank control of equity markets. But seizing control of the bond market is the nearest equivalent step.

Not only that, the Fed is buying junk corporate debt propping up companies that should be let to fail as Chamath Palihapitiya pointed out poignantly this week. But not this Fed, no, with its actions it is again setting up the economy for yet another slower growth recovery, financed by even more debt.

QE doesn't produce growth, that is the established track record:

Asset price inflation to save markets in the hopes of trickle down growth to come.

Absurd.

The message the Fed is again is sending is to invite reckless behavior on the side of investors, the same reckless, TINA, fueled behavior that got us the bubble blow-off top in February.

The Fed's actions are driving and creating these asset bubbles:

I have inside info. The USA has billions of printed treasury notes in vaults located in every state.
There are Treasury banks already situated and ready to open up for business as soon as a state of emergency is called.
The design and distribution of the Treasury dollars has been a top secret underground project ever since Trump took office.
Trump was hoping to make it to the second term before implementing this plan, but it seems ((they)) are forcing his hand with this coronavirus economic black swan.
((they)) don't know yet that we are ready to completely do away with their monopoly currency and central bank and go back to a constitutional Treasury based money system.
(they)) think that this black swan event will freeze up the US economy and their plan is to twist the knife by flooding so much USD into the system that not even a wheelbarrow of $100 bills can buy a ramen packet.

>>audit comes back with surprising result... The us has 10x more gold than was previously on the books.
((it seems that Trump has raided the gold supply of the elite in return for immunity deals))
>>announces that Treasury dollars are now available and backed by gold and silver at a rate of $100,000 treasury dollars per oz of gold.
>>any US CITIZEN can exchange the money in their bank accounts for a new US treasury account (exchange rate of USD to new UST to be determined somewhere between 1/1 and 1/10 probably)
>>all of ((their)) banks fail as CITIZENS begin mass exodus of USD and open a Treasury bank account.

Trumps master plan begins to take shape. Trump has taken a simple stone (gold) and crushed ((them)) with it. Trump has finished the work of Jackson and routed the vipers completely out.

This sets USA up for literal golden era while all other central bank countries begin to collapse around us.

Manufacturing comes back and new life is breathed into the USA. All other countries want to do business with us as they collapse.

U.S. Set to Block $5 Billion IMF Bailout for Iran's Terror Regime

A report first carried by the Wall Street Journal says the Trump administration opposes a $5 billion IMF loan to Iran and will stop it from happening.

That's despite intensifying demands by China, Russia, and European countries for the U.S. to relax its sanctions on Tehran. "Iran," the Journal notes, "has had about 65,000 reported cases of COVID-19 and approximately 4,000 reported deaths"–though most seasoned Iran-watchers believe the real figures are much higher.

Critics of the U.S. stance say that "rules governing the U.S. humanitarian channel [to Iran] are too onerous to be useful, mostly because of stringent bank reporting requirements. They also argue that easing sanctions would send a powerful message to regular Iranians that the U.S. is on their side and wants to help."

But Mark Dubowitz and Richard Goldberg of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies have written a blistering riposte to those calling for sanctions relief for the ayatollahs.

They point out, first, that the U.S. sanctions on Iran already make an exception for humanitarian aid. "A recent analysis of pharmaceutical trade between Europe and Iran shows little change between 2011 and 2019 despite periods of imposition, suspension, and return of sanctions."

Second:

If Iran is experiencing challenges in convincing banks to process transactions with its trade partners, perhaps it's because Tehran is determined to use its financial sector for money laundering and terrorism finance–concerns that led the Financial Action Task Force, a 39-country anti-money laundering organization, to recommend last month that the global financial community take stringent measures to defend itself against Iran's illicit practices.

Third, Iran already has a hell of a lot of money that it's somehow not using to fight its COVID-19 crisis:

Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei controls more than $200 billion in off-the-books assets in holding companies and foundations and another $91 billion in Iran's sovereign wealth fund, of which $20 billion is in cash or cash equivalents. He could easily use $40 billion from this corporate empire to support Iran's $400 billion economy. Instead, he uses this money, most of which was illegally confiscated from Iranians, to fund his revolutionary agenda of domestic repression and regional destruction.

And fourth, Iran's "revolutionary" agenda includes continued work on its nuclear program "even during the pandemic. Iran's centrifuges keep spinning, producing more enriched uranium for potential use in a future nuclear weapon. The regime is also denying nuclear inspectors access to certain suspicious sites related to the Iranian nuclear program."

Money, of course, is fungible, and funneling $5 billion to Tehran in the belief that it will use the funds constructively borders on the insane.

In fact, at about the same time the abovementioned WSJ report came out, Forbes was reporting on some more activities that supposedly cash-strapped Tehran is somehow able to finance:

Evidence suggests that Iran has deployed an array of anti-ship missiles and large rockets overlooking the Strait of Hormuz, which is vital for the supply of oil from the Arab states of the Persian Gulf. The waterway is being patrolled by the U.S. Navy and its allies to protect vessels from Iranian action….

Iran continues to build up its naval capabilities across the board. The Iranian navy recently announced that it is working on a large submarine and a 6,000 ton destroyer.

Does all this mean the Iranian people, many–probably most–of whom oppose (if not outright despise) the regime, should be left to suffer the effects of COVID-19 unaided? No. As Dubowitz and Goldberg point out, the U.S. sanctions already allow humanitarian aid, and they further elaborate:

The U.S. Treasury and the Swiss government established a humanitarian banking channel backed by rigorous oversight to prevent the regime from diverting money and goods away from the Iranian people. Tens of billions of dollars of Iranian oil revenue sitting in foreign escrow accounts are available to fund the import of humanitarian goods. Indeed, that's how Iran imported $15 billion in essential goods and medicine in the past year, according to the governor of the central bank of Iran.

So, as far as humanitarian aid is concerned–yes, if it can be ensured that it really gets to the people it's supposed to aid. As far as direct cash transfers to the regime by the IMF or anyone else are concerned–absolutely not; it means paying–and freeing up Iranian funds–for terror, subversion, and a conventional and nuclear arms buildup. Fortunately, when it comes to Iran, the Trump administration keeps getting it right.

Fed's Quarles Says Main Street Facility Funds Couple Weeks Away

Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Randal Quarles said getting loans to mid-sized U.S. businesses through the central bank's newly created Main Street lending facility is two-to-three weeks away.

"We are putting together the mechanisms for that credit to be distributed through the banks," Quarles, the Fed's vive chair for supervision, said Friday in a webcast discussion hosted by the University of Utah. "That's probably 2-3 weeks away, a couple weeks away."

The Fed is building the Main Street lending facility in connection with funding from the Treasury Department that was provided in the more than $2 trillion stimulus packaged passed by Congress last month, to help stem the damage to businesses and households as the economy shuttered to stem the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The central bank announced Thursday – along with a slew of other programs designed to help provide loans to Americans – that eligible borrowers are businesses with up to 10,000 employees or up to $2.5 billion in 2019 annual revenues. The credit will be lent through U.S. banks. The Fed's statutes require it to lend to credit-worth companies, Quarles said, and the central bank is developing the process to do that through this program.

The Main Street lending facility is meant to compliment the Paycheck Protection Program that the federal government started to get loans to small businesses.

The Fed also announced this week that it will also provide support to that program. Those loans can convert to grants if the firms retain or rehire their workers. The PPP also took weeks to set up and has encountered barriers in getting loans out to people quickly.

bank of England to lend directly to government

The bank of England is to directly finance the UK government by temporarily expanding the use of an overdraft facility, despite senior central bank officials previously saying monetary financing was not currently an option.

Today (April 9), the central bank and Treasury agreed "to extend temporarily" the Ways and Means facility, which is designed to support government cash management.

Use of the facility amounts to financing of the government budget through money creation

Market Report-April 9th-2020

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied Thursday afternoon with shares of JPMorgan Chase and Boeing leading the way for the price-weighted average. S&P 500 was up 11.9% week to date, putting it on pace for its best week since 2008. It gave up a good portion of the initial gains going into the close but caught some decent volume in the last few minutes and headed up-DOW is over it's daily average volume, while NASDAQ and SP500 remain well below those. Gold had a decent pop as The Fed announced a slew of programs, including loans geared towards small and medium sized businesses, that will total up to $2.3 trillion. The central bank also gave more details on its plans to buy investment-grade and junk bonds. Thursday's announcement was enough to outweigh another massive jump in weekly jobless claims. More than 6 million Americans filed for unemployment benefits last week. (still think seeing those checks will be a pipe dream but it will NOT be down to POTUS as he is surrounded by snakes who's only goal is to not do anything for the people). Also think that the ultimate goal by (((them))) is to place all of our assets into the FRBNY and sell them to China on the cheap-but that is jmo. Gold got a juice upwards after the FRB went full retard earlier to day-it has closed at it's print time at the highest in 7 years but has given back a little of that since that time. Oil has been whip-sawed up, down and every which way and gave up yesterday's gain and shit the bed later on- See cap#3-that was nothing moar then an OPEC offical (Algerian) re-stating what everyone knew already. VP stated categorically that no talks would habben between them and us on the proposal to cut between 10-15m bpd. Russia can handle this a lot easier as they have virtually no external debt (compared to everyone else) so VP is in the drivers seat here and they all know it. Opec+, made up of Opec producers and allies including Russia, has been holding talks via video conference. The U.S. stock market will be closed Friday due to Good Friday.

Jerome Powell had a Q&A today and uttered the following:
"These programs we are using, under the laws, we do these, as I mentioned in my remarks, with the consent of the Treasury Secretary and the fiscal backing from the congress through the Treasury. And we are doing it to provide credit to households, businesses, state and local governments. As we are directed by the Congress. We are using that fiscal backstop to absorb any losses we have." "Our ability is limited by the law. We have to find unusual, and exigent circumstances and the Treasury Secretary has to agree, and we are using this fiscal backstop. There is really no limit on how much of that we can do other than meet the tests under the law as amended by Dodd-Frank".

and keep in mind that the FOMC is a committee that decides monetary policy…not Jerome Powell. They have to have a "vote" by this committee to implement things. If they do not want to co-operate then they can just say "we voted not to implement these recd's from Treasury"-wait…THAT is coming. They are playing nice at present but this will get ugly and the "independance" of the FOMC to the FRB's overall scope will come into play down the road.
This is an opinion and only that-don't think I know exactly what is going on here but I do not think the FRB would just "give it up" without a fight-this is an optical battle and it will continue on.'
Now this is going to re-ignite the Treasury has swallowed Muh FRB arguements again and the only thing I see here is that since the FRB is constrained by law (as JP has stated above) they have to get the permission of Treasury to roll these things out-and who does the Treasury Sec. report to?-POTUS. This has always been the case and Hank Paulson did a few things similar during the 2008 bailout because the law ALREADY EXISTED. What has been done is that a very public reporting relationship on oversight has been announced IN PUBLIC..that is all. The FRBNY will continue to print and drop the trillions of paper-money creation it always has done.

In other FRB news Federal bank regulators issue interim final rule for Paycheck Protection Program Facility which means they are removing the rules that hold these loans against the banks capital requirements.

Q Research General #11185: How Do You Hide A Truth? Edition

Salvini urges Italian government to reject EU coronavirus 'loans'

Italy's preeminent populist lawmaker and former interior minister Matteo Salvini has urged the country's ruling coalition government to refrain from accepting EU loans that would "aid" its embattled economy amid the Chinese COVID-19 outbreak.

Senator Salvini, who's also leader of the Right-wing populist League party and Italy's most trusted politican, brushed off the viability of EU proposals to help Italy to deal with the coronavirus crisis, arguing that the loans would burden Italy's younger generations, the Daily Express reports.

Instead of accepting loans from the EU, the former interior minister said that Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe, an establishment leftist, should issue treasury bonds to help mend the economy that's been devastated by the Chinese COVID-19 virus.

"Many people ask me 'what would you do if you were still in charge?', I would ask Italian people for the money to let the country recover," Salvini said during an interview with Italian broadcaster La7.

"I don't believe in measures like the European Stability Mechanism (ESM), which is still talked about in Berlin, Amsterdam and Brussels because it would be a debt imposed on our children," the populist Senator added.

"It would mean more equity and more precarious jobs."

"I would apply an extraordinary issue of treasury bonds for Italian citizens, entrepreneurs and investors, guaranteed by the Government and by the European central bank - as this is its role - so that the Italian debt to fix roads, build hospitals and new police stations will be in the hands of Italian citizens with advantageous tax conditions."

"I don't trust loans coming from Europe, which will then mean - as we have seen in Greece for example -that airports, rails and even monuments will be sold to the highest bidder."

So far, finance ministers from EU-member states have failed to agree on the terms of a financial aid package that would be dispersed to EU country's who've been disproportionally affected by the Chinese COVID-19 virus outbreak.

While Belgium, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Portugal, Slovenia, and Spain have called for "corona bonds" to be issued, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Finland have so far opposed the plan.

Libya's Sarraj blames central bank amid oil blockade

Libya's internationally recognised prime minister Fayez al-Sarraj on Wednesday said central bank of Libya governor Sadiq al-Kabir was to blame for the recent non-payment of salaries to state workers and the non-issuance of letters of credit, Reuters reports.

Friction between Sarraj and Kabir threatens to undermine the Tripoli government as it fends off a military assault, deals with a blockade of its main oil exports, and prepares to handle a coronavirus outbreak.

Sarraj said on al-Rasmiya television channel that he had "tried to avoid a war of words with the central bank of Libya, but things have really crossed all lines".

He said the bank had to hold a board meeting, something that would bring together directors from across the divide of Libya's conflict, in order to discuss changes he said Kabir seeks in the exchange rate.

Recovery Bill Exempts Fed From Much of Open Meetings Law

By Theodore Bunker | Thursday, 09 April 2020 12:02 PM

The recovery bill passed by Congress includes a provision that allows the Federal Reserve to organize a $450 billion bailout fund without having to adhere to much of the federal open meetings law, Politico reports.

This provision allows the Fed to hold meetings without the board giving a day's notice beforehand. The central bank also would be exempted from keeping minutes at closed-door meetings, which could drastically reduce the amount of information the public receives about how the loan program was planned, including what could have influence the board's decisions.

"We may never know what terms are being given to banks, what collateral is being offered, what repayment methods and duties banks and other financial institutions may have," said media attorney Charles Glasser, who represented Bloomberg News in a lawsuit over public records involving the Fed after the 2008 financial crisis. "And these are important questions."

Glasser added, "This is written too broadly and allows the Federal Reserve to avoid its responsibilities of public disclosure as the courts have described them."

Crowdstrike Holdings, Inc. sold by Warburg Pincus Private Equity: $575.10m-Apr 6

Warburg Pincus Private Equity X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WPPE X"), is a holder of record of 16,912,653 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Class B Common Stock"), having converted 9,690,000 shares of Class B Common Stock into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer (the "Class A Common Stock"), and sold such shares of Class A Common Stock, each on April 6, 2020.

Paul M. Warburg-Vice Governor, Federal Reserve Board, 1916-1918, Member, Federal Reserve Board, 1914-1916
Paul M. Warburg was sworn in as a member of the first Federal Reserve Board on August 10, 1914. He was appointed vice chairman (called "vice governor" before 1935) on August 10, 1916. He resigned from the Board on August 9, 1918. Warburg was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1868. He graduated from high school in Hamburg in 1886 and began working for an exporting firm there. He then moved on to positions at shipping and banking companies in London and Paris. He returned to Hamburg in 1895 and became a partner in the banking firm M.M. Warburg and Company, founded by his great-grandfather.

Warburg was a partner in the family firm until 1907. However, in 1902, he moved to New York City and joined his father-in-law's company as a partner overseeing international loans to several governments. In 1911, he became a naturalized US citizen. Warburg was considered one of the top authorities on central banking both in Europe and the United States and was active in the monetary reform movement taking place in the United States in the early 1900s. He gave speeches, published several articles advocating the establishment of a US central bank, and was an unofficial advisor to the National Monetary Commission, which was established following the Panic of 1907 to study banking system reform. In 1910, Warburg was one of six men, including Sen. Nelson Aldrich, to participate in a secret meeting on Jekyll Island, Georgia, that resulted in a plan for a National Reserve Association. Although the "Aldrich plan" was rejected by Congress, it laid the foundation for the 1913 Federal Reserve Act, which created the Federal Reserve System. President Woodrow Wilson appointed Warburg to the new entity's first Board in 1914. Although Warburg left the Federal Reserve Board in 1918, he continued to serve the Federal Reserve as a member of the Federal Advisory Council (1921-26). He resumed his activities in business and philanthropic circles as well. For example, he founded and was the first chairman of the Executive Committee of the American Acceptance Council in 1919. In 1921, he organized the International Acceptance bank to promote US government financing of reconstruction in Europe following the war.

Warburg was also a director of the Council on Foreign Relations (1921-32), a trustee of the Institute of Economics (1922-27), and a trustee of the Brookings Institution after it merged with the Institute of Economics in 1927. He also helped establish the Carl Schurz Memorial Foundation in 1930. He served at various times as a director of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Union Pacific Railroad, and Western Union Telegraph Company. Warburg was also a director of the Julliard School of Music and a trustee of Tuskegee College.

Fed Minutes To Reveal The Sheer Chaos As Fed's Entire Worldview Imploded

Starting a week of historic central bank interventions, at the 15th March weekend meeting, the Fed threw the proverbial kitchen sink at the market, taking aggressive measures (slashing rates by 100bps to 0.25%; committed to at least USD 700bln of QE; eased regulatory pressure on banks to free up capital, and announced dollar swap lines with other central banks), reaching decisions that may shape the global economy for decades to come in the space of a few frantic weeks. This was followed with a barrage of other measures which included the boosting of QE and MBS purchases on Mar 23, expanded repo for foreign central banks on Mar 31, and also announced six further facilities, including the commercial paper facility, de facto backstopping the entire market except equities and junk bonds.

The timing of the Fed's announcement and the scope of the measures was a surprise: as NewsSquawk writes, it was the Fed's "whatever it takes" commitment to ensure the smooth functioning of markets amid the virus fallout. Since then, it has flooded the market with liquidity, resulting in the premium for dollars easing.

Since then, its balance sheet has ballooned to by USD 1.5trln to a new record high USD 5.86trln, and it has seen wide take-up of its liquidity facilities from banks and other central banks.

Fed modifying asset cap so Wells Fargo can make more small business loans

The U.S. Federal Reserve said on Wednesday it would "temporarily and narrowly" modify the growth restriction on Wells Fargo & Co's (WFC.N) asset cap so the bank can make more loans under government assistance programs for small businesses hurt by the coronavirus disruption. Wells Fargo, a major small business lender, said on Sunday it had hit a $10 billion cap on loan applications it is able to accept under a $350 billion small business payroll protection program passed by Congress last month due to constraints imposed by the asset cap.

The change will allow the bank to make additional loans under that program and the Fed's forthcoming Main Street Lending Program, and will be in place as long as those facilities are active, the central bank said.

Loans made under those programs will not count toward the $1.95 trillion asset cap the Fed imposed on the bank in February 2018. At the time, the Fed said it would only remove the cap when Wells Fargo had improved its governance and risk controls following a wave of sales practice scandals.

Wells Fargo executives had told investors the asset cap was not affecting its operations, but the surge in loan demand fueled by the coronavirus pandemic has put pressure on the bank's balance sheet.

The bank has been urging the Fed to lift the asset cap so it can unleash its full lending capacity to support struggling businesses and consumers, but regulators were initially cold on the idea.

Marathon talks over EU virus rescue package stall
42 minutes ago

"EU talks on how to help southern Eurozone countries badly affected by the coronavirus epidemic have stalled after 16 hours.

The European central bank says the bloc may need up to ?1.5tn ($1.6 trillion; £1.3tn) to tackle the crisis.

European finance ministers were close to a deal, but the talks broke down amid a dispute between Italy and the Netherlands over how to apply the recovery fund.

Negotiations will resume on Thursday.

The coronavirus pandemic has exposed deep divides in Europe, where Italy and Spain have accused northern nations - led by Germany and the Netherlands - of not doing enough.

The row comes as the EU's top scientist, Mauro Ferrari, resigned citing Brussels' "disappointing" response to the pandemic.

The Italian, who was head of the European Research Council for less than four months, said in his resignation statement that a special programme he tried to set up to combat the virus had been rejected out of hand.

The European Commission has not commented on the criticism, but a leading MEP, Christian Ehler, accused Mr Ferrari of conducting a "window-dressing public relations stand on the coronavirus crisis".
Why did the EU talks break down?"

Covid-19 could spur central bank digital currencies - BIS Fear could promote use of CBDCs but data is yet to point to whether cash demand has changed

The Covid-19 outbreak may accelerate issuance of a central bank digital currency (CBDC), according to new research from the bank for International Settlements. Early in March, a spokesperson for the World Health Organization triggered public concerns by commenting that the virus could be easily transmitted by cash. The WHO later clarified its position, saying it is not advising people to abandon cash.

Fed says it will provide financing against new U.S. 'payroll protection' loans

The Federal Reserve on Monday moved to bolster a new small-business lending program by allowing banks to turn those loans over to the U.S. central bank for cash, easing concerns among banks about getting stuck holding the low interest loans.

The Fed said it would announce details later this week of a new term financing arrangement for loans made under what is known as the Payroll Protection Program, part of the federal response to the economic effects of the chinavirus pandemic.

Term financing facilities have been a staple of the Fed's crisis response, encouraging banks to make loans for a variety of purposes with the understanding that they could turn them over to the central bank, get cash and continue lending.

The program is similar to the arrangement the U.S. government has with mortgage agencies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, whose stamp of approval on a loan makes banks more willing to lend. In this case the very existence of the Fed program - assuring banks they could unload the Small Business Administration loans when they want - could make the program more attractive to lenders, given the fees of up to 5% banks can earn for what now amounts to processing the paperwork.

The Payroll Protection Program is one of the key measures adopted as part of a more than $2 trillion effort to offset the economic impact of the coronavirus crisis, which has forced large portions of the U.S. economy to shutter. It dedicates $350 billion for loans so small businesses can keep paying workers and meet basic expenses like rent.

The rollout of the program has been fitful, however. Some bankers have said they remain unclear about their potential risks if the loans go bad - even though the Treasury Department has said it would guarantee them in most instances. bankers also have been concerned about holding onto the 1% interest loans even though the Treasury last week said they could be sold back to the SBA after seven weeks. The Fed is working on a separate Main Street Lending Facility expected to focus on mid-sized employers with between 500 and 10,000 workers.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell is to provide an update on the economy on Thursday in a webcast speech hosted by the Brookings Institution, a Washington-based think tank.

Yellen Blames "Enormous Debt And Buybacks" For Coming Default Wave; Morgan Stanley Says It's All The Fed's Fault

In June 2017, Janet Yellen decided to wave a red flag before the bulls of fate, and responding to a question on financial system stability, the then-Fed chair said post-crisis regulations had made financial institutions much "safer and sounder", and as a result she went on to predict that there would never again be a financial crisis "in our lifetimes" to wit:

"Will I say there will never, ever be another financial crisis? No, probably that would be going too far. But I do think we're much safer and I hope that it will not be in our lifetimes and I don't believe it will."

While the bulls cheered this idiotic prediction, some were quick to compare this statement by Yellen to Neville Chamberlain's infamous - and very, very wrong - "peace in our time" speech. In retrospect the some were right because less than three years later, the world is going through the biggest financial crisis in every living person's lifetime, which has resulted in the most aggressive central bank market stabilization and intervention in history. Also in retrospect, it is clear that Yellen didn't have any bloody idea what she was talking about (then, or any other time when she was boring traders and analysts to death with her droning, narcoleptic monotone) even as we - among others- were warning that it was her monetary policy decisions that guaranteed the next crisis would put 2008 to shame. And sure enough, while the current crisis was sparked by the coronavirus pandemic, it is what comes next that the financial crisis will truly strike home as thousands of companies that loaded up on cheap, cheap debt during the Bernanke, Yellen and Powell Feds, default.

Amazingly, it was again this same intellectual and otherwise midget, that last week had the audacity to deflect blame for the current crisis (which she said would never happen in her lifetime) when last Monday, Yellen said that choices by broad swaths of the financial industry and companies were going to make it harder for the economy to recover from the coronavirus crisis. Choices, which apparently, took place in a vacuum in which the Fed did not keep interest rates at the lowest level in history while blowing the biggest asset bubble ever. Or at least that's how the recent past looks like through Yellen's revisionist perspective.

Commenting on Yellen's video broadcast hosted by the Brookings Institution, the WSJ wrote that while the banking and financial sector was in "generally in good shape" ahead of the crisis, problems were already taking shape according to Yellen, who three years failed to predict the future with her patently idiotic "no crisis in our lifetimes", and now also appears unable to accurately discuss the past, where she just happened to be a key catalyst for the epic crash that is coming. Blaming everyone but herself, Yellen said that "non-financial corporations entered this crisis with enormous debt loads, and that is a vulnerability. They had borrowed excessively" and they did it not so much for productive purposes like investment, but for buying back stocks and paying dividends to shareholders. And while these firms borrowed, investors also let their guards down in their hunt for high yields, the former central bank official said, shocking oblivious of the Fed's role in permitting all of this behavior to continue for years and years, building up massive imbalances which are now finally being unleashed and forcing the Fed to do absolutely everything in its power to prevent true price discovery which would take place… about 60% below current S&P levels.

This blameless narrative continued, with Yellen having the gall to go so far as saying that the corporate borrowing binge - which she helped unleash - "creates risk to the economy. And I'm afraid we'll see that in spades in the coming months, because it may trigger a wave of corporate defaults. Even where a company avoids default, highly indebted firms usually cut back a lot on investment and hiring, and that will make the recovery more difficult," the former central banker said, once again hoping to never be named in the list of antagonists whose actions led to the biggest US depression in a century.

U.S. banks to defend dividend payments in stress tests

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. banks are expected to defend their dividend payments when they submit their annual capital plans to the Federal Reserve on Monday for the upcoming stress tests, the Financial Times reported on Sunday, citing people familiar with the situation.

U.S. lenders face growing pressure to follow their European counterparts and non-financial companies and cut dividends, as the chinavirus crisis puts a record number of people out of work, which could make it harder for borrowers to repay loans. banks may need cash to cover those losses, critics argue.

But over the past week, executives from Citigroup Inc (C.N), Morgan Stanley (MS.N) and Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS.N) have defended their plans to continue paying dividends to shareholders, saying their banks are well-capitalized enough to do so.

Wall street analysts, who initially thought it was impossible banks would cut dividends, are now saying it is more likely that banks, particularly those with large credit card businesses, will cut dividends later this year.

On March 27, the European central bank told its lenders to skip dividends and share buy backs until at least October, estimating they could save 30 billion euros by doing so.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-banks-stress-tests/u-s-banks-to-defend-dividend-payments-in-stress-tests-ft-idUSKBN21N0QS

FRB stress tests have always been bullshit. The big banks place the toxic assets they hold into a "hold to maturity" bucket on it's balance sheet so the FRB never "see's" them-done this since these were started. If they suspend dividend payments the masses who hold them as well as the big funds will begin dumping them.

FRB definition of Stress test(s)
Stress Tests and Capital Planning

The Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) is an annual exercise by the Federal Reserve to assess whether the largest bank holding companies operating in the United States have sufficient capital to continue operations throughout times of economic and financial stress and that they have robust, forward-looking capital-planning processes that account for their unique risks.

As part of this exercise, the Federal Reserve evaluates institutions' capital adequacy, internal capital adequacy assessment processes, and their individual plans to make capital distributions, such as dividend payments or stock repurchases. Dodd-Frank Act stress testing (DFAST)–a complementary exercise to CCAR–is a forward-looking component conducted by the Federal Reserve and financial companies supervised by the Federal Reserve to help assess whether institutions have sufficient capital to absorb losses and support operations during adverse economic conditions.

While DFAST is complementary to CCAR, both efforts are distinct testing exercises that rely on similar processes, data, supervisory exercises, and requirements. The Federal Reserve coordinates these processes to reduce duplicative requirements and to minimize regulatory burden.

The requirements, expectations, and activities relating to DFAST and CCAR do not apply to any banking organizations with assets of $10 billion or less.

MondayVatican
Vatican at a Glance
Vatican Finances. How the story began
Pg 4

This is how the Holy See's estate and financial wealth was born and its management evolved. It is a sovereign wealth fund, managed through a sort of central bank (APSA; the Administration of the Apostolic See Patrimony) and an entity (the IOR) which assets are at the sovereign's disposal, while the Prefecture for Economic Affairs oversees over the dicasteries balances and have now power to address Holy See's financial and economic policy and everything is under the Authority for Financial Information oversight. These financial arrangements have been enhanced and modernized through the years with new agencies and also new ways to report balances. The Holy See is now committed to a qualitative enhancement toward full financial transparency. Perhaps this development is most worrisome to those who have been reckless in their interactions with Vatican financial institutions, taking advantages of the latter's peculiarities and of Vatican sovereignty. Ultimately, the Holy See financial scandals were always about Italian bankers (from Michele Sindona, to Roberto Calvi, to Ettore Gotti Tedeschi, the former IOR president who was recently involved in an Italian bank investigation regarding his role as Italian representative of the Spanish bank Grupo Santander), and in fact relations between Italy and the Holy See have been very tense, seemingly proving a certain level of Italian hostility toward the Holy See's path to financial transparency. The Holy See has overcome this hostility, embarking on an international standards path, which is the only way to go in a globalized world. This path will eventually make Vatican City State a modern State, with multilateral relations and an internationally recognized financial capacity. This is the only path to make the Holy See independent from any external influence. The question is: who is not comfortable with the Holy See sovereignty?

After three years in power, Trump has finally fulfilled his electoral promise of taking private banks out of the US public affairs, ending a century of exploitation of the American citizens. He has put the infamous Blackrock investment group to start buying important corporations for the Fed, meaning that he's nationalizing chunks of the economy, while avoiding the crash of the market by implicating important private investors in the deal.

Khazarian Jews Kicked Out of Russia

1-20-2020 Ben Fulford:
Basically, David Rothschild was kicked out and the Russian central bank was nationalized, which is why half the government was fired, FSB sources tell us.

Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."
Sauce: https://tass.com/top-officials/1043741

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanuel Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week. A first cousin of former Emperor Hirohito tells us the bank of Japan has been nationalized and the Rothschilds as well as the Rockefellers have been removed from control of this country.

Foreign central banks Sell $109 Billion of Treasuries in March

Custody holdings at Fed post largest monthly drop on record. Decline comes as Fed rolls out repo facility to ease pressure. Foreign official holdings of Treasuries stashed at the Federal Reserve fell $109 billion in March, the largest monthly drop on record, as international governments and central banks struggled with the economic fallout from the new coronavirus.
ROCKY25 E-4B NightWatch out of
The decline showed up in the Fed's weekly custody data, with the latest figure released Thursday showing a $24 billion drop in the week to April 1. The sales amid the past month's pandemic-fueled turmoil are a further signal of the global rush to raise U.S. dollars as the Fed's recently expanded dollar swap lines are accessible to only 14 central banks. Countries reliant on oil exports and smaller Asian economies have been selling U.S. debt, according to traders and market makers familiar with the transactions, and central banks have been primarily offloading older, less-liquid Treasuries. The Fed on Tuesday rolled out a temporary repurchase agreement facility that will allow a broader range of central banks to swap Treasuries for dollars, effective April 6. The Fed stopped short of saying it wanted to prevent a snowball effect from the central-bank Treasuries selling, but said Tuesday that the new program will provide "an alternative temporary source of U.S. dollars other than sales of securities in the open market." The statement didn't specify if all central banks would be involved. As fear swept through markets last month and fueled unprecedented volatility, liquidity – the ability to trade without causing significant price moves – deteriorated in Treasuries to its worst since the 2008 financial crisis. At the same time, the greenback surged as investors sought refuge in the world's primary reserve currency. The Fed has acted to calm debt markets to avert knock-on economic effects, by announcing trillions of dollars of purchases of assets including Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities.

The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index rose 3.1% in March, the most since 2016.

bank of England doubles size of corporate bond purchase program

LONDON (Reuters) - The bank of England said on Thursday it will double the size of its corporate bond purchase programme to at least 20 billion pounds, part of a previously announced stimulus package to help the economy during the coronavirus crisis. "(The BoE) expects to make these purchases at a significantly faster rate than in the 2016 scheme," the BoE said in a statement.

The central bank last month increased its bond purchase programme by a record 200 billion pounds to a total of 645 billion pounds, to be financed with newly-created money, mainly for British government bonds. Until Thursday, it had not specified the size of planned corporate bond purchases.

The BoE will begin ramping up its corporate bond purchases through a series of reverse auctions starting on April 7, holding three a week, and it will be able to buy 20 million pounds of any single bond - double the previous amount. As before, the BoE said it will aim to purchase a "balanced portfolio of bonds across eligible issuers and sectors", so as not to favour specific companies or sectors of the economy.

The list of eligible bonds, last published in August and intended to include companies that "make a material contribution" to Britain's economy, will be updated in mid-April.

Bonds issued by banks, building societies and insurers will not be eligible.

Thousands of U.S. banks, including some of the country's largest lenders, have said they may not participate in the federal government's small-business rescue program due to concerns about taking on too much legal and financial risk, five people with direct knowledge of industry discussions told Reuters. Seeking to help millions of small businesses that have dramatically curtailed operations or shut down altogether during the coronavirus pandemic, Congress included $349 billion for small firms in its $2 trillion stimulus package passed last week. Small businesses, which will rely on banks to get the funds, employ about half of U.S. private sector employees, according to the Small Business Administration website.

Borrowers can apply for the loans through participating banks starting from Friday and until June 30. Trump administration officials have said they want the loans disbursed within days.

But representatives of some major lenders, as well as thousands of community lenders, have expressed serious reservations about participating in the scheme in its current form and called that deadline totally unrealistic.

Their main concern is that the Treasury Department said on Tuesday that lenders will be responsible for preventing fraudulent claims by verifying borrower eligibility, which is determined by a few measures including the borrower's number of employees and its average monthly payroll costs.

banks also must take steps to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, a process that would normally take weeks, the sources said.

Community banks said the Treasury's guideline interest rate of 0.5% will be unprofitable, and that many small banks will not have sufficient liquidity to front up the loans. The Treasury and the Small Business Administration did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

After hearing the concerns, Treasury officials are considering withdrawing Tuesday's guidance and are working to fix the issues, according to two sources.

Reuters could not learn which specific big banks are thinking about shunning the program. The bank Policy Institute (BPI), a Washington trade group, hosted a call on Wednesday during which executives from its members discussed their concerns, three of the sources said. Members of the group include JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM.N), bank of America Corp (BAC.N), Wells Fargo & Co (WFC.N) Citigroup Inc (C.N), Truist bankBBTVA.UL and PNC bank PNCBNK.UL.

banks want a document customers can sign attesting to their eligibility and other requirements, thereby relieving the industry of responsibility for potential misconduct.

One source said banks are also seeking a written assurance from the government regarding their legal liabilities and obligations before they agree to participate in the program.

they had ZERO problem qualifying everyone for loans when it suited their purpose but now they don't want the liability of it going forward.'

Federal Reserve temporarily eases some bank leverage requirements
The U.S. Federal Reserve announced on Wednesday it was temporarily easing its leverage rules for large banks by exempting certain investments from a key leverage calculation, part of the effort to combat the economic slowdown inflicted by the coronavirus pandemic.

Now, banks will be able to exempt any holdings in U.S. Treasury debt or deposits at the Fed from their calculations of the supplementary leverage ratio, or SLR, an additional leverage restriction imposed on the largest U.S. banks.

The exemptions, which the Fed said will help ease strains in the Treasury market and encourage banks to continue lending, will stay in place until March 31, 2021.

The leverage restrictions easing marks the latest attempt by the Fed to ensure that banks can continue to lend during the slowdown due to the pandemic.

The SLR, which applies to banks with over $250 billion in assets, was created by the U.S. central bank following the 2007-2009 financial crisis that saw banks nearly collapse after a national housing crisis. The rule, which directs banks to hold a certain percentage of capital as a cushion against its assets, was aimed at ensuring the largest institutions had an extra layer of protection against any future downturns

Q Research General: #11088 Operation True Colors, Karma WILL Repay (You) Edition

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/fed-panics-foreigners-dump-record-109-billion-us-treasuries

The ongoing liquidation in foreign Treasury holdings - largely the result of the continued collapse in the price of oil as oil-exporters are forced to liquidate assets to obtain much needed dollars - led to the Fed's panicked scramble to announce a foreign central bank repo facility, which it did on Tuesday morning, when it stopped short of saying it wanted to prevent a cascading domino effect from the Treasury liquidation, but made it very clear that the program will provide "an alternative temporary source of U.S. dollars other than sales of securities in the open market."

Translation: stop selling Treasurys as the world's (formerly?) most liquid market is now suddenly extremely illiquid, and ongoing sales will only further destabilize it.

Credit Suisse rate strategist Jonathan Cohn echoed Rajappa saying the new repo facility "effectively backstops foreign central banks from forced liquidation of their Treasury holdings into dysfunctional markets."

The new repo program "is a sensible second-best solution for major countries that are outside the enlarged Fed FX swaps network but have substantial corporate dollar funding needs," said former NY Fed spokesman Krishna Guha, currently head of central-bank strategy at Evercore ISI. "This group includes China, which ought to be eligible for the new program, though the Fed release is not clear on this point."

So will the Fed succeed in halting foreign Treasury sales thanks to the brand new repo facility? Or will foreign central banks skip the repo facility, just as US dealers have done for the past 2 weeks, and continue to liquidate forcing the Fed - that last resort monetizer of US deficit and debt issuance - to buy even more Treasurys each day?

We'll know the answer this time next week when the latest custody data is released, and this time it will include the fully functioning foreign repo facility.

"Happening - Coronavirus Leads to Treasury Dollar Printing

I have inside info. The USA has billions of printed treasury notes in vaults located in every state.
There are Treasury banks already situated and ready to open up for business as soon as a state of emergency is called.
The design and distribution of the Treasury dollars has been a top secret underground project ever since Trump took office.
Trump was hoping to make it to the second term before implementing this plan, but it seems ((they)) are forcing his hand with this coronavirus economic black swan.
((they)) don't know yet that we are ready to completely do away with their monopoly currency and central bank and go back to a constitutional Treasury based money system.
(they)) think that this black swan event will freeze up the US economy and their plan is to twist the knife by flooding so much USD into the system that not even a wheelbarrow of $100 bills can buy a ramen packet.

Here is the series of events that will take place instead.
>>coronachan devastates world economy
>>all countries bend knee economically to their ((central banks)) for liquidity
>>USD begins to inflate dramatically
>>doesn't stop stock market from tanking
>>emergency meeting called by Trump
>>audit of US gold supply from several sources takes place.
>>audit comes back with surprising result... The us has 10x more gold than was previously on the books.
((it seems that Trump has raided the gold supply of the elite in return for immunity deals))
>>announces that Treasury dollars are now available and backed by gold and silver at a rate of $100,000 treasury dollars per oz of gold.
>>any US CITIZEN can exchange the money in their bank accounts for a new US treasury account (exchange rate of USD to new UST to be determined somewhere between 1/1 and 1/10 probably)
>>all of ((their)) banks fail as CITIZENS begin mass exodus of USD and open a Treasury bank account.

Trumps master plan begins to take shape. Trump has taken a simple stone (gold) and crushed ((them)) with it. Trump has finished the work of Jackson and routed the vipers completely out.

This sets USA up for literal golden era while all other central bank countries begin to collapse around us.

Manufacturing comes back and new life is breathed into the USA. All other countries want to do business with us as they collapse.

Fed Panics As Foreigners Dump A Record $109 Billion In US Treasuries

Exactly one week ago, when we highlighted the unprecedented surge in Fed Treasury purchases which since March 19 has amounted to $75BN per day until tomorrow when it tapers modestly to $60BN, we said that the Fed's record ramp in debt monetization "is hardly an accident: one look at the Treasury securities held in custody at the Fed shows that the past two weeks have seen a whopping $50BN in foreign central bank sales, a 1.7% drop which was the highest in six years."

As we also noted, "the selling may have contributed to record volatility in the Treasury market and prompted the Fed's intervention. More importantly, it also means that the biggest buyer of US Treasurys in the past decade, foreign official institutions (i.e., central banks and reserve managers) are now sellers, so now the U.S. government needs private investors to soak up the ever increasing debt issuance."

But since private investors are busy, trying to avoid getting killed by a deadly Chinese virus, it means that only the Fed now can fund the exploding US budget deficit… which is precisely what it has been doing, having purchased a record $912 billion in US Treasuries since the relaunch of official QE (hence expanded to unlimited QE) on March 13.

Nationalizing the Federal Reserve is only a good idea if the goal is to eliminate it. A national central bank creates the same (if not more) moral hazards than a private one.

The problem isn't that a private central bank lends money into existence and then expects to be paid back interest. The problem is that when ANY central bank creates money, the privileged groups that are connected to the bank and the government get the money FIRST. This happens before prices go up due to inflation. These people are able to use counterfeit money to essentially buy whatever they want at today's prices.

Once the money circulates and inflation of prices occurs, people who are not connected to the fed and the government get the money. But now prices have already gone up. It's as if these people are paying a tax equivalent to the rate of inflation.

People connected to the central bank, whether it's private or public do not pay the inflation tax. Everyone else (you and me) does.

That's one of the truly insidious problems with a central bank, private or public.

One hypothesis is that this Covid-19 pandemic is being used to usher in the depression that may have taken some time to unfold on its own. Given the profligacy of the central banks over the last decade, it was obviously going to happen. Bubbles are always searching for a pin.

The pandemic gives the powers-that-be cover to blame it on a red herring, rather than the actual cause, i.e. the central bank.

This is good because most people don't understand the schemes of the central banks and thus, would not grasp why the depression was happening. The pandemic makes for a very palatable story. "The government HAD to shut down businesses, forcing us into a depression. It was unavoidable. And by the way, the central bank isn't lowering rates fast enough."

(This was bullshit, by the way. The problem was that the central bank kept rates far too low far too long. But the average person can't grasp that.)

Blaming the bank (a little bit) gives Trump cover to phase it out (awesome!) or nationalize it (a terrible idea).

Fed Takes on Role of World's central bank by Pumping Out Dollars

The Federal Reserve is acting as central banker to the world by seeking to provide the global financial system with the dollar liquidity it needs to avoid seizing up.

In its latest measure to combat the economic fallout from the coronarvirus pandemic, the Fed said Tuesday it was establishing a temporary repurchase agreement facility to allow foreign central banks to swap any Treasury securities they hold for cash. That's yet another step beyond the actions it took in the 2008 financial crisis.

"To the Federal Reserve's credit, it is playing the role of central banker to the world rather than denying it and trying to ward it off," said former Fed official Ted Truman, who is now a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington.

The Fed is trying to prevent a liquidity squeeze amid a worldwide rush into dollars, as the virus wreaks havoc on a global economy that is heavily dependent on the greenback as its linchpin.

"A lot of borrowing and commerce and investing is done in dollars," Julia Coronado, founding partner of MacroPolicy Perspectives in New York and a former Fed economist, said in an interview on Bloomberg Radio. "When you have a dollar crunch, it can turn a recession or contraction in activity into a financial crisis very quickly because the dollar shortage can trigger defaults and deleveraging."

Emerging-market borrowers are especially at risk. Encouraged by low U.S. interest rates, they've loaded up on a dollar-denominated debt in recent years. They now face a squeeze as their exports plummet due to economic shutdowns worldwide to combat the coronavirus contagion.

A significantly stronger dollar can also hurt the U.S. by tightening financial conditions and making American exports more expensive on world markets.

Strains Remain

Investors rushed for the currency this month, pushing the premium paid to swap funding exposure from euros into the dollar to multiyear highs. While the shortage of dollars has since eased, strains remain in emerging markets.

Unlike the currency swap lines the Fed already has in place with selected central banks – and which it employed in the financial crisis – the new repo facility will be open to most foreign central banks and foreign monetary authorities with an account at the New York Fed.

"Almost every country that holds dollars has an account at the Federal Reserve," Truman said. "My guess is that $5 trillion is held there."

The New York Fed says it has over 200 account holders, with the vast majority held by foreign central banks and monetary authorities.

The new facility though does lack something the currency swaps provide. While it allows foreign central banks to liquefy their holdings of Treasuries and obtain dollars, it does not add to their reserves. Rather, it just changes their composition.

Krishna Guha, head of central bank strategy at Evercore ISI, said the the repo program should help smaller emerging markets that need to raise dollars to intervene to prevent freefalls in their currencies.

Selling Pressure

It should also lead to less forced selling of Treasuries by those foreign central banks and thus support the Fed's efforts to restore some semblance of order to the U.S. government debt market, he said in a note to clients.

The Fed nodded to that reasoning in its statement announcing the new program. The facility "reduces the need for central banks to sell their Treasury securities outright and into illiquid markets," helping stabilize trading in the world's most secure and important asset, it said.

There are some doubts though about how widely the program will be used. The Fed is charging 25 basis points over the interest rate on excess reserves – currently 0.1% – to buy back U.S. Treasuries. It is hard to know which monetary authorities would opt for the program rather than first trying to sell at market without the extra cost.

The Fed is having to take on the mantle of world central banker because of the dollar's dominant role in the world economy and the critical importance of the Treasury debt market to the global financial system.

Dominant Dollar

Even though the U.S. was the epicenter of the 2008-09 crisis, the dollar's role has strengthened since then, in part because the euro's position has faded due to the ongoing problems of the currency bloc, Harvard University professor Carmen Reinhart told Bloomberg Radio.

Why Did Russia Just Halt Domestic Gold Purchases?
Wed, 04/01/2020 - 05:35

"As the gold market continues to deal with global liquidity issues, and virus-lockdown-related disruptions between paper and physical pricing as extremely high physical demand creates shortages, Russia made a surprise announcement on Monday.

Starting April 1, Russia will be suspending its domestic gold purchases:
"Since April 1, 2020, the bank of Russia has suspended the purchase of gold in the domestic precious metals market.

Further decisions on the purchase of gold will be made depending on the development of the situation in the financial market…" Russia's central bank said.

In recent years, as Kitco notes, the Russian central bank has dominated the gold market, consistently increasing its gold reserves every month for the last three years. According to data from the World Gold Council, the Russian central bank bought 158.1 tons last year. The WGC data shows that the central bank bought 8.1 tons of gold in January.

Although Russia will not be adding to its gold reserves in the near future, analysts are not expecting the central bank to start selling its gold anytime soon."

170 foreign central banks can now sell US Treasury and mortgage backed securities directly back to the US Treasury instead of on the open market for at least 6 months

https://www.wsj.com/articles/fed-will-launch-new-lending-facility-for-foreign-central-banks-11585657885

WASHINGTON-The Federal Reserve said Tuesday it would launch a temporary lending facility that for the first time will allow foreign central banks to convert their holdings of Treasury securities into dollars, its latest bid to alleviate strains in global markets.
The program is designed to alleviate stresses in currency markets that had prompted more foreign central banks to sell their holdings of Treasurys. The Fed has been aggressively purchasing Treasury and mortgage securities to reduce market strains, and the latest move could reduce the supply of those securities hitting the market if foreign central banks can more easily exchange them for dollars.
The program could allow around 170 foreign central banks and other international monetary authorities that maintain accounts at the New York Fed and aren't subject to U.S. sanctions to enter a lending arrangement called a repurchase agreement, or repo, in which borrowers temporarily exchange their Treasury securities for dollars.
"This facility should help support the smooth functioning of the U.S. Treasury market by providing an alternative temporary source U.S. dollars other than sales of securities in the open market," the Fed said in a statement.
The repo facility for foreign central banks will be available beginning April 6 for at least six months.
The latest dollar-lending programs will complement separate tools the Fed has launched to lend dollars to 14 other central banks in Europe, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Brazil and Australia to ensure markets don't run short of currency outside of the U.S.
The repo market shook the financial world in September when an unexpected rate spike choked short-term lending, spurring the Federal Reserve to intervene. WSJ explains how this critical, but murky part of the financial system works, and why some banks say the crunch could have been prevented. Il
Many business transactions abroad take place in dollars and foreign institutions also lend in the currency. The Fed used these "swap" lines aggressively in 2008 and 2009 during the financial crisis.
But the latest lending program goes beyond what the Fed employed during the financial crisis or the 2011-12 eurozone crisis by making available dollar funding to a far broader cohort of emerging-market reserve banks. It underscores the growing primacy of the dollar in global finance and the demands that has placed on the Fed to serve as a central bank to the world.
The new lending facility is likely to reach a much broader set of foreign central banks, especially those with acute dollar demands that don't have Fed swap lines, including in India, China and Saudi Arabia.
While swap lines essentially allow the Fed to lend against the currencies of foreign central banks, the latest repo transactions offer these central banks loans against their holdings of U.S. Treasurys.
The latest facility should "serve a useful role to assist smaller emerging markets that need to monetize dollar assets to lean against excessive exchange-rate depreciation," said analysts at Evercore ISI in a report Tuesday.

World's Top Gold Market Freezes as Chinese Shoppers Stay Away

China is the biggest buyer of gold bars, coins and jewelry, but the national shutdown to contain the virus has emptied malls, while the premium charged to buy the metal in China has evaporated. It leaves the industry staring down a long road to recovery, even as Beijing tries to jump-start broader consumption with a campaign to get shoppers out and about. The market's struggles in China may present a headwind for prices, which last month topped $1,700 an ounce for the first time in seven years. The traditional haven also faces a drag from slower retail consumption in India, Europe and the U.S., as well as Russia's surprise decision to halt purchases by its central bank. Last year, Chinese consumers accounted for about a fifth of total gold demand of 4,356 tons, according to the World Gold Council.

China's retail sales of gold, silver and jewelry plunged 41% in the first two months of the year. Zhang estimated that the amount of gold jewelry sold in the first quarter will have fallen by at least half, setting up a significant decline for the whole year. "Consumers won't return to buy gold jewelry until the pandemic ends, and Chinese investors are also unwilling to purchase gold with their deposits at the moment," he said.

The trepidation contrasts with a flurry of activity on the global market last week, which saw gold refineries shut and aircraft grounded, creating a massive squeeze on gold futures in New York as traders scrambled to get enough physical metal to meet their commitments.

It also comes as the Chinese economy inches back to normality and new infections slow to a trickle. The nation was about 90% back to work at the end of last week, according to Bloomberg Economics. Still, consumers remain hesitant after weeks of government warnings about the dangers of mingling with others, and as financial pressures mount amid rising unemployment. The market remains concerned over the constraints around delivering bullion, which is contributing to price volatility, said Haywood Cheung, president of the Chinese Gold & Silver Exchange Society, which trades physical gold and silver in Hong Kong.

Production cuts at gold refiners will help boost prices, he said, while broader conditions remain supportive to bullion.

What the Federal Reserve has done in the chinavirus crisis

Here's a look at some of the steps taken by the Fed so far:

** RATE CUTS
The Fed cut rates twice on an emergency basis this month, the first time it has done that since the financial crisis in 2008. The first cut of a half percentage point was on March 3 and the second of a full point was on March 15, which brought the Fed's overnight borrowing rate for banks back to near zero. The reduction is meant to keep down the cost of loans for banks - and by extension their customers - to ensure borrowers have ample access to credit during the crisis.

** REPO MARKET
The Fed has been intervening in money markets since last fall, when a cash shortage led to a jump in short-term borrowing rates. Policymakers had planned this year to scale back operations in the market for repurchase agreements, or repo, through which dealers can borrow cash. But as the economic threat posed by the coronavirus increased, the central bank pivoted to offering almost unlimited support in the overnight lending markets for cash. On March 31, the Fed also announced that it broadened its repo agreements with foreign central banks, allowing them to exchange their holdings of U.S. Treasury securities for overnight dollar loans.

** QUANTITATIVE EASING (QE)
The Fed first employed QE in the financial crisis, starting in 2008. The idea is that through large-scale purchases of various types of bonds - mostly Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities - it helps ensure that longer-term interest rates like those for mortgages and car loans remain low and helps keep major purchases affordable for consumers and businesses. When it cut rates back to near zero on March 15, the Fed restarted these large-scale purchases and is now doing so with an open-ended commitment.

When it cut rates back to near zero on March 15, the Fed restarted these large-scale purchases and is now doing so with an open-ended commitment.

** DISCOUNT WINDOW
banks in recent weeks have borrowed the most since 2009 from the Fed's lending tool of last resort at the urging of the central bank. The so-called "discount window" is rarely used because banks are worried that using it could make them appear weak. But policymakers have lowered the rate charged on the funding to 0.25% and extended the length of the loans offered from one day to 90 days. As of last Wednesday, banks had borrowed more than $50 billion.

** central bank FOREIGN CURRENCY SWAP LINES
The Fed has standing agreements with five other major foreign central banks - the bank of Canada, European central bank, bank of England, bank of Japan and Swiss National bank - that allows them to provide U.S. dollars to their financial institutions during times of stress. The Fed has increased the frequency of the operations to daily from weekly. It also offered temporary swap lines here to nine additional countries to ease access to dollars, which are in high demand because the liabilities of many foreign governments and companies are denominated in the U.S. currency.

Fed Launches Repo Facility To Provide Dollars To Foreign central bank

With US dealers no longer using the Fed's repo facilities (this morning we had another "no bid" overnight repo with just $250MM in MBS submitted for a $500 billion op) as the Fed soaks up all securities via its aggressive QE which is still buying $75BN in paper each day, perhaps Powell felt a bit unloved and at 830am this morning the Fed unveiled yet another "temporary" emergency liquidity providing facility, this time to foreign central banks, in the form of a repo facility targeting "foreign and international monetary authorities", i.e. foreign central banks which will be allowed to exchange Treasuries held in custody at the Fed for US dollars.

In other words, just a week after the Fed "enhanced" its swap lines with central banks and included a bunch of non G-5 central banks to the list of counterparties, it has found that this is not working - perhaps due to the prohibitive rates on the facility - and is now handing out dollars outright against US denominated securities. We wonder if the central bank uptake will be any higher than the repo facility aimed at US dealers and which is now redundant. Of course, when that fails the Fed can just offer to buy all central bank securities in what even reputable FX strategists now joke is a Fed on full tilt, and intent on buying out all foreign central banks.

And so, just as the financial situation was starting to stabilize, the Fed reminds everyone just how broken everything still is.

Federal Reserve announces establishment of a temporary FIMA Repo Facility to help support the smooth functioning of financial markets

The Federal Reserve on Tuesday announced the establishment of a temporary repurchase agreement facility for foreign and international monetary authorities (FIMA Repo Facility) to help support the smooth functioning of financial markets, including the U.S. Treasury market, and thus maintain the supply of credit to U.S. households and businesses. The FIMA Repo Facility will allow FIMA account holders, which consist of central banks and other international monetary authorities with accounts at the Federal Reserve bank of New York, to enter into repurchase agreements with the Federal Reserve. In these transactions, FIMA account holders temporarily exchange their U.S. Treasury securities held with the Federal Reserve for U.S. dollars, which can then be made available to institutions in their jurisdictions. This facility should help support the smooth functioning of the U.S. Treasury market by providing an alternative temporary source of U.S. dollars other than sales of securities in the open market. It should also serve, along with the U.S. dollar liquidity swap lines the Federal Reserve has established with other central banks, to help ease strains in global U.S. dollar funding markets.

The Federal Reserve provides U.S. dollar-denominated banking services to FIMA account holders in support of Federal Reserve objectives and in recognition of the U.S. dollar's predominant role as an international currency. The FIMA Repo Facility, which adds to the range of services the Federal Reserve provides, will be available beginning April 6 and will continue for at least 6 months.

US Fed will allow debt to cash swaps for foreign central banks

The Federal Reserve announced a new facility Tuesday that will allow foreign central banks to temporarily swap debt holdings for US dollars.

Amid the cash crunch and increased demand for dollars caused by the uncertainty around the coronavirus pandemic, the Fed's "FIMA repo facility" will allow central banks to exchange US Treasury debt for cash, rather than selling them for bargain prices.

Along with dollar swap lines the Fed already put in place for major central banks, this operation, which begins April 6, will "help support the smooth functioning of financial markets … and thus maintain the supply of credit to US households and businesses," the Fed said in a statement.

Is Trump Nationalizing the Fed?

Here we go with the same old hypothesis over the Quantity Theory of Money that Trump is (1) nationalizing the Fed and (2) the Fed's actions are worse than the virus, and (3) Forbes proclaims that the Trump & the Fed are destroying the dollar. It is really fascinating how these propositions running around are not only foolish, but the classic myopic view that the world begins at the California shoreline in the Pacific and ends on the beaches of Virginia at the Atlantic. Oh yes, there is Canada to the North and Mexico to the South. But who pays much attention to them anyhow. Canadians just come to America for holidays and Americans go to Mexico for a holiday and to eat Tacos.

he Washington Post showed not only its profound bias against Trump, but also its total ignorance of financial and the Federal Reserve. The reported:

The economic debate of the day centers on whether the cure of an economic shutdown is worse than the disease of the virus. Similarly, we need to ask if the cure of the Federal Reserve getting so deeply into corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, commercial paper, and exchange-traded funds is worse than the disease seizing financial markets. It may be.

If the Washington Post ever bothered to do actual research instead of just promoting their personal political agenda, they might discover that the original design and purpose of the Federal Reserve was to support the economy directly. They were to buy corporate paper to PREVENT companies who could not borrow from laying off their employees. It was Congress that usurped the Fed for World War I and directed them to buy government paper EXCLUSIVELY. Congress nationalized the Fed a long time ago.

The Washington Post's slogan is Democracy Dies in Darkness. So, why are they constantly only pushing their political agenda? Are they not keeping the people in the dark?

They have conveniently forgotten that there was Tarp where the government pour a trillion into banks who never lent out the money because they had no confidence in the future. They then turned and pleaded with the Fed to create the Excess Reserve facility so the TARP only bailed out the banks but not the economy. Already, Excess Reserves are rising again showing that banks are once again NOT lending.

This is the first time the Fed is returning to its original design - direct lending to the economy skipping the banks. The Washington Post is clueless because they look at everything as a way to bash Trump and hurt the country just for their personal political view.

Then we had Forbes Magazine which is trapped by the Quantity Theory of Money and like a fool who keeps sticking their finger in an electric socket and expecting a different result, jeep declaring that increasing the supply of money will destroy the dollar. They even can't figure out why the Euro rallied and of course just blamed Trump. Instead, they talk to biased crypto people who proclaim the Fed balance sheet will rise to $10 trillion and this results in the headline:

Donald Trump And The Fed Are Destroying The U.S. Dollar

The had the audacity to claim the rally in the dollar was ONLY short covering. These people are biased and have no idea of what is happening outside the United States. It very plain, Trump is NOT Nationalizing the Fed. The Fed was a steady process of nationalizing it since World War I. For the FIRST time the Fed is departing from Keynesian Economics because it knows that won't work. Europe needs this crisis because it has no power to deal with the economy when the central bank is trapped in negative interest rates. The ECB is now pushing CoronaBonds, because it cannot continue to support the European member states. Netherlands and Germany are opposed to the idea. The only way to break the backs of Netherlands and Germany is to propel this crisis as the justification to federalize Europe.

The Euro has rallied BECAUSE capital is being taken home to cover losses everywhere. These people are obviously ignorant of what a LIQUIDITY CRISIS is all about. At the WEC in October, we warned we were entering a Liquidity Crisis stemming from the rise in Country Party Risk and this would be a different crisis all together because we faced a Bond Bubble. What is unfolding should be no surprise. The markets have been showing this would be the outcome since the Repo Crisis began September 17th, 2019. They have also no clue what big money does on a quarterly basis. I suppose this gives new meaning to the saying: Ignorance is Bliss!

US central bank: 47 Million Americans May Go Jobless Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

Economists project that the number of layoffs in the US could possibly spike to 47 million as states across the country increase COVID-19 novel coronavirus prevention measures and certain at-risk businesses continue to lay off employees.

Last week, the US Federal Reserve revealed that the worst has yet to come in regard to the declining American economy and the subsequent unemployment rate. According to economists at the Federal Reserve's St. Louis, Missouri, branch, the total employment reductions will hit 47 million by the end of 2020's second quarter, which runs from March 1 to June 30.

This number translates to a 32.1% unemployment rate.

"These are very large numbers by historical standards, but this is a rather unique shock that is unlike any other experienced by the US economy in the last 100 years," economist Miguel Faria-e-Castro wrote in the St. Louis Fed's research paper.

However, Faria-e-Castro highlighted that one could argue that the duration of unemployment, rather than the rate alone, is a more important metric to judge how the country is economically impacted by the pandemic. He also noted that those employed in "sales, production, and food preparation and services" occupations are at the highest risk of being let go.

Just last week, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin spoke with CNBC and claimed that the new reports on the millions of jobless Americans weren't "relevant." Estimates at the time reflected that approximately 3.28 million new unemployment claims had been filed in just the preceding week.

"To be honest, I think these numbers right now aren't relevant whether they're bigger or shorter in the short term," Mnuchin told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" on March 26.

"So now with these plans, small businesses hopefully will be able to hire back a lot of those people," he added, referring to the then-proposed $2.2 trillion relief bill that was later signed into law by US President Donald Trump on Friday.

A number of city and state governments have been stepping up their prevention measures recently. New York City, a hotspot for the novel coronavirus, has begun implementing fines ranging from $250 to $500 for those who are found congregating in public. New York City Police Department officers will also be patrolling public transit to enforce social distancing.

"I understand people are trying to get somewhere, but no one should be getting on a crowded train," said New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, as reported by The Gothamist. "But the PD [police department] is going to go out there, if they see any overcrowding, they are literally split it up, pull people off the train, moving along into different cars, whatever it takes."

While discussing unemployment with CNBC, Mnuchin advised Americans to get out and look for new jobs amid the pandemic.

"And, by the way, you know, lots of big companies do continue to hire, for obviously grocery stores, pharmacies, you know, delivery services. These companies are on overtime, so I know they're hiring people as fast as they can," he said, despite the fact that such jobs, and the commutes to the businesses, put one at a higher risk of contracting COVID-19.

Repost from anon. Clown baker refused to add, despite 3 noms.
>>8623498 lb, Anon on how POTUS has been preparing America for this moment

From what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

-Environmental policy change
reorganizing NEPA so projects can proceed in a timely manner (1 year vs 10)
especially WRT to large-scale infrastructure projects,
? which will have a ripple-out effect on local economies, not to mention building material supply, manufacture and transport and retailers of those same
-SBA changes to give incentive and make it easier for more Americans to be small entrepreneurs
-Tax code changes
so that American business becomes attractive and profitable
-Healthcare fixes
No more Obamacare mandate, I believe POTUS will 'jump off' to something much better from there (not revealed yet)
? breaking the grip of Big Pharma and their monopoly on allopathic modality & medicines
Releasing actual cures to the public and a resurgence of naturopathic practice and healthy living
-Apprenticeship programs
not only for traditional trades but over 3k companies have pledged to take HS grads and do on-the-job training, bypassing the Snowflakes' domain of college entirely
-Unleashing our energy sector
not limited to oil/nat gas
"new sources of energy" have been mentioned at least 3 times by POTUS, so important
? (not announced yet) I believe that POTUS will make it attractive (at least not suppress) alternative energies as well as the manufacture of devices or adapters to transition over to those new energy sources
*Our nuclear plants are at the end of their lives, so they have to be replaced with something. POTUS is a forward-looking guy, and I believe, considering Projects LG and Pegasus, he can see what will work, and do what is necessary to get us there.*
-Break the FED
POTUS has floated a women to replace the head who is hostile to the FED itself, which is a major shot across the bow.
While he has never mentioned it, outright or a coded message I have seen, I can see him, at the right point in time, nationalizing the central bank, issuing State-backed currency and destroying the FED, thereby breaking the ultimate hold of USURY over the world.

From what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

UBS defies Swiss dividend freeze call with $2.6 billion payout plan

ZURICH (Reuters) - UBS (UBSG.S) plans to pay a 2019 dividend that is more than half its annual profit, defying calls by the Swiss government and financial markets supervisor for lenders to limit payouts during the chinavirus crisis. banks around the world have been asked to withhold payouts to ensure that they are able to support businesses through the economic disruption caused by the global coronavirus pandemic.

"UBS has a strong capital basis and is strategically well positioned, which is especially crucial in this difficult time," the bank said on Monday, adding that it was "in a position to support the economy while maintaining an appropriate dividend policy."

Shares in UBS, Switzerland's largest bank, whose proposed dividend of $0.73 in cash per share is up nearly 6% over 2018 and foresees a payment of $2.6 billion to shareholders, closed little changed at 9.06 Swiss francs.

UBS posted net profit of $4.3 billion last year and the dividend payout reflects a roughly 8% return on the bank's share price, that has fallen some 30% since February.

The European central bank (ECB) last week told banks in the euro zone to skip dividends and share buybacks until October.

This call has so far been heeded by groups including ABN Amro (ABNd.AS), the bank of Ireland, ING (INGA.AS), Rabobank [RABOVR.UL] and Italy's UniCredit (CRDI.MI) and Germany's Commerzbank (CBKG.DE). UBS was rescued a decade ago by the Swiss federal government with a 6 billion Swiss franc ($6.28 billion) capital injection during the financial industry crisis.

UBS is also appealing an order by a French court to pay 4.5 billion euros ($5 billion) after being found guilty of laundering proceeds of tax evasion in 2019

History of Trusts:

The 1st Trust of the World

Unam Sanctam is one of the most frightening documents of history and the one most quoted as the primary document of the popes claiming their global power. It is an express trust deed. The last line reads: "Furthermore, we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff." It is not only the first trust deed in history but also the largest trust ever conceived, as it claims the whole planet and everything on it, conveyed in trust.

Triple Crown of Ba'al, aka the Papal Tiara and Triregnum

In 1302 Pope Boniface issued his infamous Papal Bull Unam Sanctam - the first Express Trust. He claimed control over the whole planet which made him "King of the world". In celebration, he commissioned a gold-plated headdress in the shape of a pinecone, with an elaborate crown at its base.

The pinecone is an ancient symbol of fertility and one traditionally associated with Ba'al as well as the Cult of Cybele. It also represents the pineal gland in the centre of our brains -crystalline in nature - which allows us access to Source, hence, the 13-foot tall pinecone in Vatican Square. Think about why the Pontiffs would idolize a pinecone.

The 1st Crown of Crown Land

Pope Boniface VIII was the first leader in history to create the concept of a Trust, but the first Testamentary Trust, through a deed and will creating a Deceased Estate, was created by Pope Nicholas V in 1455, through the Papal Bull Romanus Pontifex. This is only one of three (3) papal bulls to include the line with the incipit "For a perpetual remembrance." This Bull had the effect of conveying the right of use of the land as Real Property, from the Express Trust Unam Sanctam, to the control of the Pontiff and his successors in perpetuity. Hence, all land is claimed as "crown land". This 1st Crown is represented by the 1st Cestui Que Vie Trust, created when a child is born. It deprives us of all beneficial entitlements and rights on the land.

The 2nd Crown of the Commonwealth

The second Crown was created in 1481 with the papal bull Aeterni Regis, meaning "Eternal Crown", by Sixtus IV, being only the 2nd of three papal bulls as deeds of testamentary trusts. This Papal Bull created the "Crown of Aragon", later known as the Crown of Spain, and is the highest sovereign and highest steward of all Roman Slaves subject to the rule of the Roman Pontiff. Spain lost the crown in 1604 when it was granted to King James I of England by Pope Paul V after the successful passage of the "Union of Crowns", or Commonwealth, in 1605 after the false flag operation of the Gunpowder Plot. The Crown was finally lost by England in 1975, when it was returned to Spain and King Carlos I, where it remains to this day. This 2nd Crown is represented by the 2nd cestui Que Vie Trust, created when a child is born and, by the sale of the birth certificate as a Bond to the private central bank of the nation, depriving us of ownership of our flesh and condemning us to perpetual servitude, as a Roman person, or slave.

The 3rd Crown of the Ecclesiastical See

The third Crown was created in 1537 by Paul III, through the papal bull Convocation, also meant to open the Council of Trent. It is the third and final testamentary deed and will of a testamentary trust, set up for the claiming of all "lost souls", lost to the See. The Venetians assisted in the creation of the 1st Cestui Que Vie Act of 1540, to use this papal bull as the basis of Ecclesiastical authority of Henry VIII. This Crown was secretly granted to England in the collection and "reaping" of lost souls.

The Crown was lost in 1816, due to the deliberate bankruptcy of England, and granted to the Temple Bar which became known as the Crown Bar, or simply the Crown. The Bar Associations have since been responsible for administering the "reaping" of the souls of the lost and damned, including the registration and collection of Baptismal certificates representing the souls collected by the Vatican and stored in its vaults.

This 3rd Crown is represented by the 3rd Cestui Que Vie Trust, created when a child is baptized. It is the parents' grant of the Baptismal certificate - title to the soul - to the church or Registrar. Thus, without legal title over one's own soul, we will be denied legal standing and will be treated as things - cargo without souls - upon which the BAR is now legally able to enforce Maritime law.

Corruption in the Time of Coronavirus
March 29, 2020

On March 23, the Fed announced its largest-ever intervention in the financial markets. Bazooka is too timid a word to describe it. More like a neutron bomb. Our central bank, supposed defender of the currency and the stability of markets, can now purchase an unlimited amount of US Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities (now running at the unheard-of rate of $625 billion per week). That's on top of $1 trillion per week in repurchase operations. As amazing as it sounds, that's not where the real action lies.

As part of Congress's CARES act (ha, nice try!), the Treasury will create (or resuscitate) a series of special-purpose vehicles (SPVs) to buy all manner of financial assets, backed by $425 billion in collateral conveniently supplied by the US taxpayer via the Exchange Stabilization Fund. The Fed will lend to SPVs against this collateral which, when leveraged, could fund $4-5 trillion in asset purchases.

That includes municipal bonds, non-agency mortgages, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and every variety of asset-backed security. The only things the government can't (transparently, yet) buy are publicly-traded stocks and high-yield bonds.

You may ask, is this legal? Not exactly.

The Fed's charter prohibits it from buying securities that lack an explicit government guarantee. Hence the convenience of murky SPVs, to which the Fed is printing lending the majority of the funds. Jim Bianco spells out a slew of new acronyms: CPFF (Commercial Paper Funding Facility); PMCCF (Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility); TALF (Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility); SMCCF (Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility) and a bone to small business in the form of the MSBLP (Main Street Business Lending Program).

These SPVs involve the Fed in nearly every major US financial market. That's not all: by providing low/no cost financing to large corporations, asset managers, distressed debt vultures ventures, and private equiteers, our Federal Reserve has fast-tracked the hoovering up consolidation of American business into the hands of the few, the wealthy and the powerful.

In case you were wondering who gets to make these all-important "investment" decisions: it's Treasury Secretary Mnuchin, the one who bought troubled mortgage originator IndyMac in a 2008 fire sale, then supervised the illegitimate foreclosure of thousands of California homeowners.

Mnuchin won't have to do all the heavy lifting however, his old friends at Goldman Sachs are happy to help out, just as they did in 2008. And the Fed tapped asset-management giant BlackRock to direct three of its bond-buying programs, which can purchase some of its own funds on behalf of the central bank. No conflict of interest there!

Democrats in Congress made a big show of their supposed oversight of these programs; in reality, there is none. The final draft removed most of the SPV reporting requirements. Even the Sunshine Law that governs the release of Fed minutes has been waived for the duration of these programs.

Secretary Mnuchin is permitted to dispense with the already-feeble limits on CEO compensation (they can get only two times what they earned in 2019!) as well as the suggested restrictions on stock buybacks and dividend payouts by bailed-out companies. Last but not least: these firms are not required to share any upside from the rescue (in the form of an equity stake) with the US government. Heads: company CEOs and investment banks win. Tails: the taxpayer loses…..

China Unexpectedly Cuts Reverse Repo Rate To The Lowest On Record

China's central bank joined the global easing bandwagon early on Monday when it unexpectedly cut the rate on reverse repurchase agreements by 20 basis points, the largest in nearly five years, as authorities stepped up measures to relieve pressure on an economy ravaged by coronavirus pandemic.

Without giving a reason for the move, the People's bank of China said on its website that it was lowering the 7-day reverse repo rate to 2.20% from 2.40%, the lowest on record. This was the first rate cut since a 10bps cut in December 2019, and the third cut in the 7-day rate since November. Also on Monday, the PBOC injected 50 billion yuan ($7 billion) into money markets through seven-day reverse repos, breaking a hiatus of 29 trading days with no fresh fund injections via the liquidity tool.

At Friday's meeting, the Communist Party's Politburo said the government will step up policy measures and tighten enforcement in a bid to achieve full-year economic and social development targets. The government pledged to appropriately increase budget deficit ratio, guide market interest rates lower, and keep liquidity level reasonably ample.

Speaking to the media after the rate cut announcement, central bank adviser Ma Jun said China still has ample room for monetary policy adjustment and the rate decision took into consideration the return of Chinese companies to work, the global virus situation and a deterioration in the external economic environment. The rate cut took place one day after we reported that "China's Consumer Default Tsunami Has Started."

In a note to clients, Capital Economics said "a lot more easing will be needed, especially on the fiscal front, to help the economy return to its pre-virus trend."

While the Politburo statement and the PBOC move signal the response is moving up a gear, it still falls short of a no-holds-barred stimulus.
Chinese 10-year government bond futures initially responded positively to the cut, with the most-traded contract for June delivery rising as much as 0.23%, before pulling back to last trade down 0.07%; at the same time China's money market rates ticked up on tighter quarter-end liquidity despite the PBOC injection. The overnight repo rate climbed 25 basis points to 1.36% while the 7-day rate climbed 43 basis points to 2.10%. As Reuters notes, analysts expect China's economy to contract sharply in the first quarter due to widespread disruptions to business and consumer activity caused by the virus as authorities put in place tough public measures to contain the pandemic. Nomura has lowered its annual GDP growth forecast to 1.0% this year, and adjusted quarterly GDP forecasts to a 9.0% annual contraction.

Minister of one of Germany's wealthiest states commits suicide 'over coronavirus worries'

The finance minister in the German state of Hesse, Thomas Schaefer, has taken his own life. His colleagues said he was pushed over the edge by the inability to cope with the harsh economic fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Schaefer's body was discovered near the speed railway track line in the town of Hochheim am Main on Saturday. The prosecutors said that the cause of his death was most likely suicide.

"We are in shock; we are in disbelief and above all we are immensely sad," Volker Bouffier, the head of the Hesse regional government, said of the passing of his close associate and fellow member of Angela Mekrel's CDU party.

Hesse is one of the wealthiest states in Germany and home to Frankfurt am Main, which is regarded as the financial capital of Europe's largest economy. The city hosts the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the European central bank (ECB) as well as the HQs of Deutsche bank and other major German companies.

Schaefer was credited for having contributed to the region's well-being while serving as its finance minister for the last decade. The 54-year-old's professional qualities were praised by many, with the man expected to eventually replace Bouffier as the state's PM.

The coronavirus, however, delt a massive blow to the system he was so thoroughly tending all those years, sending stocks into a freefall and locking the workforce at home with quarantine.

Bouffier recalled that Schaefer, who leaves behind a wife and two children, was working "day and night" in order to minimize the impact of the pandemic on businesses and employees, but the task turned out to be unsurmountable. "We have to assume that he was deeply worried," the PM said.

Germany has so far registered 62,095 coronavirus cases, with 541 patients succumbing to the disease. More than 721,000 people have been infected worldwide, with over 33,900 fatalities.

How BlackRock Makes Money

BlackRock is one of the world's largest investment management companies by AUM.
The company operates as a single business segment. This firm derives most of its revenue from investment advisory and administration fees. In the past year, BlackRock has dealt with repercussions from two public firings of executives who had romantic relationships.
Besides modest overall YOY gains in revenue, operating income, and net income, BlackRock also saw an operating margin of 38.2% in 2019, as compared with 38.4% in 2018. Perhaps most notably, end-of-year assets under management climbed by an impressive 24.3% YOY as of the end of 2019.

BlackRock's Business Segments

As indicated above, BlackRock operates as a single business segment and does not report on income for individual parts of its business. However, it does divide its revenue according to categories for "Investment advisory, administration fees, and securities lending revenue," for "Investment advisory performance fees," for "Technology services revenue," for "Distribution fees," and for "Advisory and other revenue."

consists of three types of assets: U.S. dollars, foreign currencies, and Special Drawing Rights (SDRs), which is an international reserve asset created by the International Monetary Fund.

The ESF can be used to purchase or sell foreign currencies, to hold U.S. foreign exchange and Special Drawing Rights (SDR) assets, and to provide financing to foreign governments. All operations of the ESF require the explicit authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury ("the Secretary").

The Secretary is responsible for the formulation and implementation of U.S. international monetary and financial policy, including exchange market intervention policy. The ESF helps the Secretary to carry out these responsibilities. By law, the Secretary has considerable discretion in the use of ESF resources.

The legal basis of the ESF is the Gold Reserve Act of 1934. As amended in the late 1970s, the Act provides in part that "the Department of the Treasury has a stabilization fund ...Consistent with the obligations of the Government in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on orderly exchange arrangements and an orderly system of exchange rates, the Secretary ..., with the approval of the President, may deal in gold, foreign exchange, and other instruments of credit and securities.

So it's easy to see, if you read how this game is going to be played with Blackrock. Larry Fink and his handlers load up the Federal Reserve/Treasury with all the shitty debt that they own and put the Treasury on the hook for the liability. The Federal Reserve, by hiring Blackrock, is being used as a proxy to load this up in both places. The Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) is funded by Special Drawing Rights (SDR) that are issued by muh IMF (posted that on friday morning but go ahead and think fake judge Anna Von Reitz figured all this out first..she didn't).

Singapore central bank eases policy as chinavirus recession looms

Singapore's central bank on Monday eased its monetary policy in response to the new coronavirus pandemic, following regional peers that have rushed to cut rates and cushion the severe blow to their economies.

The city-state's monetary policy is based on exchange rates, whereby the Singapore dollar is managed against a basket of major trade partners' currencies. This time, the central bank reduced its target appreciation rate to 0%, while re-centering the exchange rate band downward based on the prevailing rates.

The move comes after Singapore announced a $33 billion stimulus package last Thursday. As a small and open city-state, it is considered one of the most vulnerable economies amid the pandemic, which has triggered travel bans and lockdowns across the globe. Last week, Singapore downgraded its growth projection for this year to a range of -4% to -1%, from the previous -0.5% to 1.5%.

One of the key factors behind its policy adjustment is deflationary pressure sweeping through the region.

In February, Singapore's headline consumer price index grew 0.3% on the year, down from 0.8% in January due to plunging airfares and leisure costs. The benchmark core inflation rate – which excludes homes and cars – shrank 0.1%, the first decline in a decade.

The central bank in its policy statement pointed out that "disinflationary pressures are expected to broaden, even as the prices of some imported items are likely to increase as a result of the disruptions in production and transport." As Singapore relies heavily on imported consumer goods, a weaker home currency could spur domestic inflation, but the authority projects this year's inflation rates will fall to a range of -1% to 0%.

Meanwhile, the unemployment rate is expected to rise and wage growth is likely to fade. Non-labor costs, such as retail rents, should stay subdued, the central bank added. "Softer labor market conditions and weak consumer sentiment will keep cost pressures in check and cap their pass-through to consumer prices."

Elsewhere in Asia, the latest CPIs point to waning inflation or even deflation as the pandemic rages on and oil prices remain low. The risk is that deflation could send the region's economies into a negative spiral – with lower corporate earnings smothering wage growth, ultimately hurting consumer sentiment.

Take a deep breath and think this through. If you are married, you're getting $2400/mo, doesn't cover it all but bear with me… read it through and really consider it.

From what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

-Environmental policy change
reorganizing NEPA so projects can proceed in a timely manner (1 year vs 10)
especially WRT to large-scale infrastructure projects,
? which will have a ripple-out effect on local economies, not to mention building material supply, manufacture and transport and retailers of those same
-SBA changes to give incentive and make it easier for more Americans to be small entrepreneurs
-Tax code changes
so that American business becomes attractive and profitable
-Healthcare fixes
No more Obamacare mandate, I believe POTUS will 'jump off' to something much better from there (not revealed yet)
? breaking the grip of Big Pharma and their monopoly on allopathic modality & medicines
Releasing actual cures to the public and a resurgence of naturopathic practice and healthy living
-Apprenticeship programs
not only for traditional trades but over 3k companies have pledged to take HS grads and do on-the-job training, bypassing the Snowflakes' domain of college entirely
-Unleashing our energy sector
not limited to oil/nat gas
"new sources of energy" have been mentioned at least 3 times by POTUS, so important
? (not announced yet) I believe that POTUS will make it attractive (at least not suppress) alternative energies as well as the manufacture of devices or adapters to transition over to those new energy sources
*Our nuclear plants are at the end of their lives, so they have to be replaced with something. POTUS is a forward-looking guy, and I believe, considering Projects LG and Pegasus, he can see what will work, and do what is necessary to get us there.*
-Break the FED
POTUS has floated a women to replace the head who is hostile to the FED itself, which is a major shot across the bow.
While he has never mentioned it, outright or a coded message I have seen, I can see him, at the right point in time, nationalizing the central bank, issuing State-backed currency and destroying the FED, thereby breaking the ultimate hold of USURY over the world.

It seems that decades of mismanagement, shamefully incompetent leadership and actual disdain of the American citizenry has conditioned a majority of Americans to not realize our true potential - our creativity, our ingenuity, our incredible productive power and the power that we really have when we unite towards achieving a common goal, and so many citizens cannot envision in their minds what we are able to quickly, efficiently and competently accomplish, such as reorienting our manufacturing base quickly to one set of tasks and then doing it again a short time later.

One of our main tasksings from Q+ was to do research so we, anons, would be able to see how bad it really is, sure, but also so that we would be able to pay attention to what POTUS has been doing that no one else is really putting together, namely what was mentioned above.
Our other main tasking was to produce graphics to "educate and calm the public during, and after, the Storm."

We are in possession, as we are told, of much more than we know. We are in possession than far more than the public, who is scared and feeling lost and alone right now. Our job is to educate them on several aspects of the big picture about what has come before, is happening now and what is to come.

And The Best is Yet to Come is not just an empty phrase. Considering Projects LG and Pegasus, and all that Q has told us (timelines change, sometimes people need to see the future in order to save the past, time travel is fun... or?, timing is everthing, etc.) that POTUS has been able to do what needs to be done so that together we are able to weather the Storm, and come out on the other side to a beautiful, incredible future.

WWG1WGA is also not an empty phrase.Together. We are going into the future together, and unlike empires of the past, we will not oppress or suppress other Patriots around the world. We will build them up, help them reach their potentials and build an even better future. Together.

The Federal Reserve is printing $1 million every second

The United States Federal Reserve's balance sheet has increased by $586 billion-to $5.25 trillion-in the week of March 18-25, according to an official report. This means that on average, the Fed has been printing roughly $970,000 every second during that time period in its efforts to keep the market alive amid the coronavirus outbreak.

In fact, the Fed has been printing the equivalent of Bitcoin's market cap every 35 hours.

According to Bloomberg, this is the first time ever when the Fed's balance sheet topped $5 trillion. Investor panic over the global spread of COVID-19 has prompted the central bank to launch several liquidity initiatives such as bond-buying programs. The scale of its current efforts is reportedly much larger than the similar initiatives the Fed undertook during the last financial crisis.

House Stimulus Bills Want to Create "Digital Dollar" to Alleviate Wuhan Virus Recession

CoinDesk recently reported on stimulus legislation meant to strengthen the U.S. economy during the Wuhan virus pandemic.

Included in this bill is a recommendation to establish a digital dollar.

This digital greenback would allegedly help individuals and families survive the shutdown of businesses and the number of "shelter-in-place" orders that are now causing soaring unemployment claims and are raising speculation about a potential recession.

Under several bills shared last week, entitled the "Take Responsibility for Workers and Families Act" and the "Financial Protections and Assistance for America's Consumers, States, Businesses, and Vulnerable Populations Act," the Federal Reserve - America's central bank - could use a "digital dollar" and digital wallets to transfer payments to "qualified individuals," made up of $1,000 for minors and $2,000 to adults.

bank of Korea to Offer $12 Billion to banks Using FX Swap Line with Fed

The bank of Korea will provide $12 billion to banks in its first round of dollar injections using a currency swap line with the Federal Reserve. The auction will be held on Tuesday at 10 a.m. Seoul time, and banks may apply for 7-days debt of up to $300 million, and 84-days debt of up to $1.5 billion, the central bank said in a statement. The minimum bidding rate will be decided on Monday.

The supply of funds is expected to help stabilize markets, and the central bank will hold more auctions considering the demand for dollars in the market, according to the statement. The $12 billion supplement is expected to be enough to meet market demands for now, the central bank said.

The BOK on March 19 agreed on a $60 billion swap line with the Fed as the spread of the chinavirus and a plunge in oil prices led to a rush for haven and dollars, resulting in a shortage of the greenback and a plunge in the local currency. The central bank last week said it will supply dollars to markets in doses using the swap line with the Fed, with the first round of the injection being substantially larger then the rest.

https://www.bloomberg.com//news/articles/2020-03-29/bok-to-offer-12-billion-to-banks-using-fx-swap-line-with-fed

This is how THEY define it. The system still needs dollars so they are taking on Won for $'s.
They may even be using the Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF)-via the SPV to do this as that was originally established as a currency management system

central bank liquidity swaps

The Federal Reserve operates these swap lines under the authority of section 14 of the Federal Reserve Act and in compliance with authorizations, policies, and procedures established by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC).

Separately, since 1994, the Federal Reserve has had bilateral currency swap agreements with the bank of Canada and bank of Mexico, established under the North American Framework Agreement (NAFA).

Dollar Liquidity Swap Lines

In response to mounting pressures in bank funding markets, the FOMC announced in December 2007 that it had authorized dollar liquidity swap lines with the European central bank and the Swiss National bank to provide liquidity in U.S. dollars to overseas markets, and subsequently authorized dollar liquidity swap lines with each of the following central banks: the Reserve bank of Australia, the Banco central do Brasil, the bank of Canada, Danmarks Nationalbank, the bank of England, the European central bank, the bank of Japan, the bank of Korea, the Banco de Mexico, the Reserve bank of New Zealand, Norges bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, Sveriges Riksbank, and the Swiss National bank. Those arrangements terminated on February 1, 2010.

In general, these swaps involve two transactions. When a foreign central bank draws on its swap line with the Federal Reserve, the foreign central bank sells a specified amount of its currency to the Federal Reserve in exchange for dollars at the prevailing market exchange rate.

COVID-19 - The European Union Unravels
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/15803/coronavirus-european-union-unravels
As the coronavirus pandemic rages through Europe - where more than 250,000 people have now been diagnosed with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and 15,000 have died - the foundational pillars of the European Union are crumbling one by one.
Ever since the threat posed by coronavirus came into focus, Europeans have displayed precious little of the high-minded multilateral solidarity that for decades has been sold to the rest of the world as a bedrock of European unity. The EU's unique brand of soft power, said to be a model for a post-national world order, has been shown to be an empty fiction.

In recent weeks, EU member states have closed their borders, banned exports of critical supplies and withheld humanitarian aid. The European central bank, the guarantor of the European single currency, has treated with unparalleled disdain the eurozone's third-largest economy, Italy, in its singular hour of need. The member states worst affected by the pandemic - Italy and Spain - have been left by the other member states to fend for themselves.

The seeds of the European Union were planted in the ashes of the Second World War. In May 1949, Robert Schuman, one of the EU's founding fathers, boldly announced the creation of new world system:

"We are carrying out a great experiment, the fulfillment of the same recurrent dream that for ten centuries has revisited the peoples of Europe: creating between them an organization putting an end to war and guaranteeing an eternal peace."

The European Union, seven decades in the making, is now unravelling in real time - in weeks. After the dust of the coronavirus pandemic settles, the EU's institutions will almost certainly continue to operate as before. Too much political and economic capital has been invested in the European project for European elites to do otherwise. However, the EU's attraction as a post-national model for its own citizens, much less for the rest of the world, will have passed.

Fed Digital Dollars Are Part of Debate Over Coronavirus Stimulus
Legislation includes tool some believe could reshape how monetary policy is conducted

While it may not make it to the finished coronavirus economic stimulus and support package now being weighed in Congress, there is a push from some legislators to give the Federal Reserve a new tool some believe could radically reshape how it conducts monetary policy.

Analysis: Are the 'digital dollars' in the $2 trillion stimulus plan the first step toward an American CBDC?

U.S. and China are in a race to be first to have a central bank digital currency. Covid-19's devastating economic impact may be hastening the creation of a U.S. one.

Buried in the 1,000 page stimulus bill before the U.S. Congress is a provision to create a "digital dollar'" as a means to distribute government aid to people and businesses battered by the coronavirus.

The situation is fluid, and specifics about the bill are changing as multiple members of Congress present revised versions for review. However, as of March 25, provisions about a "digital dollar" as a potential vehicle of distribution are still in proposed legislation. Right now, the Senate is reviewing a separate bill that would create digital wallets that would support the use of digital dollars.

According to proposed legislation, a digital dollar is defined as "a balance expressed as a dollar value consisting of digital ledger entries that are recorded as liabilities in the accounts of any Federal Reserve bank; or an electronic unit of value, redeemable by an eligible financial institution."

Rolling out the waves of the proposed $2 trillion stimulus - which would give up to $1,200 in direct payments to each adult and $500 per child - via a central bank digital currency (CBDC) would be much more efficient and faster than printing hundreds of millions of checks and having the postal service deliver them (not to mention much less risky during a pandemic). There's also an issue of money supply and inflation, and digital currency could be a good counter against that, which is something Rabobank's Michael Every brought up in an earlier interview with Forkast.News.

All of the END OF FED Hysteria looks to me like it's misplaced as this is NOT what seems to be happening.
Take Note of the Bolded part in the middle of following Article (included for context).
This slight of hand does NOT get rid of the Fed; it puts the Treasury on the hook for first losses, which means that the Treasury will take the hit INSTEAD of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve is still the bank loaning the money, but puts the Treasury in the position of loosing the money instead of the FED.
It looks to me like if the Treasury did not have the money to pay bank the FED (the loaning bank), THEN the FED will foreclose on the Treasury (which is our Government) and our Country.

The way things sit right now, the FED has been printing money out of thin air, and THEY are on the hook, if anybody is.
By the FED giving the printing press to the Treasury, the Treasury becomes the one printing the money and holding liability for it.
The Fed isn't ceasing to exist, it is simply avoiding the first loss position by giving it to the Treasury! WTF?
The Treasury is going to print the money, and yet the money printed plus any interest accrued will still be due to the FED (loaning bank). WTF?

The other issue that should quell the over exuberance about all this, is the involvement of BlackRock Inc. being in the middle of the Fed and the Treasury.
Any anons here from the beginning, know that BlackRock Inc. was dug and found to be a cabal run investment firm. How can this possibly be a good thing?

I'm skeptical and not wanting to be. Someone please give me a reason to change my mind.
I simply can not see what is creating all the optimistic hysteria about these recent developments.

The Fed's Cure Risks Being Worse Than the Disease

An alphabet soup of new asset-buying programs will essentially nationalize large swaths of the financial markets, and the consequences could be profound.
By Jim Bianco March 27, 2020, 7:00 AM EDT
The Fed took unprecedented action to meet an unprecedented crisis. Is it dangerous?
.
.
.
But it's the alphabet soup of new programs that deserve special consideration, as they could have profound long-term consequences for the functioning of the Fed and the allocation of capital in financial markets. Specifically, these are:

CPFF (Commercial Paper Funding Facility) - buying commercial paper from the issuer.
PMCCF (Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility) - buying corporate bonds from the issuer.
TALF (Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility) - funding backstop for asset-backed securities.
SMCCF (Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility) - buying corporate bonds and bond ETFs in the secondary market.
MSBLP (Main Street Business Lending Program) - Details are to come, but it will lend to eligible small and medium-size businesses, complementing efforts by the Small Business Association.

To put it bluntly, the Fed isn't allowed to do any of this. The central bank is only allowed to purchase or lend against securities that have government guarantee. This includes Treasury securities, agency mortgage-backed securities and the debt issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. An argument can be made that can also include municipal securities, but nothing in the laundry list above.

So how can they do this? The Fed will finance a special purpose vehicle (SPV) for each acronym to conduct these operations. The Treasury, using the Exchange Stabilization Fund, will make an equity investment in each SPV and be in a "first loss" position. What does this mean? In essence, the Treasury, not the Fed, is buying all these securities and backstopping of loans; the Fed is acting as banker and providing financing. The Fed hired BlackRock Inc. to purchase these securities and handle the administration of the SPVs on behalf of the owner, the Treasury.

'''In other words, the federal government is nationalizing large swaths of the financial markets.
The Fed is providing the money to do it. BlackRock will be doing the trades.'''
.
.
In effect, the Fed is giving the Treasury access to its printing press. This means that, in the extreme, the administration would be free to use its control, not the Fed's control, of these SPVs to instruct the Fed to print more money so it could buy securities and hand out loans in an effort to ramp financial markets higher going into the election. Why stop there? Should Trump win re-election, he could try to use these SPVs to get those 10,000 Dow Jones points he feels the Fed has denied everyone.

Part 2

Headline: May 2, 2017: What's up with Donald Trump and Andrew Jackson?

"If it were possible to have a bromance across the centuries, Presidents Andrew Jackson and Donald Trump would almost certainly qualify.

Repeatedly over the past year, Trump has invoked and praised his predecessor in the White House, who served from 1829 to 1837. In addition to various mentions in remarks and on Twitter, Trump placed a portrait of Jackson in the Oval Office and made a pilgrimage to the late president's tomb in Nashville less than two months after being sworn in.

'Trump is the first president to so openly admire and point to Jackson as a model, and to borrow so clearly and explicitly from the language of Jacksonian 'democracy,' ' said J.M. Opal, a historian at McGill University."

What both Jacksonian historians as well Trump's hateful critics in the press– most of whom also being haters of the "racist" Jackson as well - never could quite figure out was the reason why Trump would attach himself to such a "controversial" president. Even most of Trump's supporters – ignorant of the history of the Jackson-Biddle "bank War – could offer no explanation.

But as regular readers of The Real History Channel (fka TomatoBubble) all know – this longtime student of the central bank Mafia and author of "Andrew the Great" here had a theory which is now, as far as I'm concerned, a fact. Trump is out to do the very thing which Jackson once told Martin van Buren – his friend, Vice President and successor – that he wanted to always be remembered for after his death: "I killed the bank."

Stay tuned. This is getting good.

P.S. That stuff about Jackson being a horrible racist and a butcher of Indians is all bullshit. Read "Andrew the Great" and learn the truth about America's greatest President.

Q-Anon's recent post of March 27th is a doozy! It simply states, as he has done so many times before: "This is not another 4-year election" – meaning that the Trump presidency was intended to fundamentally alter the course of history well into the future. The post is followed by a link to someone's "tweet" which reads: "RIP Federal Reserve!!! This is Huge!!!! "This scheme essentially merges the Fed and Treasury into one organization. So, meet your new Fed chairman, Donald J. Trump." (https://twitter.com/Ir0nbelly/status/1243635945045479426)

And that tweet ultimately links us to an article from the extremely anti-Trump Bloomberg News of Little Mike Bloomberg. Chew on this, boys and girls, straight from the worried enemy's own mouth:
*Excerpt**
"In just these past few weeks, the Fed has cut rates by 150 basis points to near zero … . That wasn't enough to calm markets, though - so the central bank also announced $1 trillion a day in repurchase agreements and unlimited quantitative easing, which includes a hard-to-understand $625 billion of bond buying a week going forward.
But it's the alphabet soup of new programs that deserve special consideration, as they could have profound long-term consequences for the functioning of the Fed ….

What does this mean? In essence, the Treasury, not the Fed, is buying all these securities and backstopping of loans… The Fed hired BlackRock Inc. to purchase these securities and handle the administration of the SPVs on behalf of the owner, the Treasury.

In other words, the federal government is nationalizing large swaths of the financial markets. The Fed is providing the money to do it. BlackRock will be doing the trades.

This scheme essentially merges the Fed and Treasury into one organization. So, meet your new Fed chairman, Donald J. Trump.

In other words, instead of using Rothschild's funny-money-machine, Trump's Treasury is issuing debt-free currency to rebuild America - the type of forbidden action that almost got Andrew Jackson killed, and (among other "offenses") got Abe Lincoln, Adolf "The Great One" Hitler and John F. Kennedy killed. The difference this time around, is that (((they))) don't seem to be able to take out the militarily-protected Trump, neither politically nor physically.

Trump's fascination with Andrew Jackson - the dauntless slayer of the Second central bank of the United States - all makes sense now. There was the solemn pilgrimage he made to Jackson's tomb in Tennessee not long after having been sworn-in. There was the "controversial" painting of Jackson which Trump chose to adorn the wall of the Oval Office with. There was the "controversial" reversal of Obongo's decision - set to take effect in 2020 – to remove Jackson from the commonly used $20 bill and replace him with Aunt Jemima, er, Harriet Tubman. There were also tweets and remarks praising Jackson, like this one:

"President Andrew Jackson, who died 16 years before the Civil War started, saw it coming and was angry. Would never have let it happen!"

After just four months in office, PolitiFact even noted Trump's seemingly inexplicable "bromance" with Jackson:

Now that we know all this it might be worthwhile to reread what Putin said at the G20 Summit.

http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/63070

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Your Majesty, colleagues,

It appears to me that the current problems caused by the new coronavirus pandemic will result in far greater shocks than the financial crisis of 2008-2009, and the trade conflicts and sanctions are worsening the recession.

From our point of view, the key risk lies in long-term unemployment which, regardless of the future scenario, will peak much higher than in 2009. Unemployment dynamics will also serve as a key efficiency indicator for our anti-crisis measures.

The current crisis will inevitably take its toll on global development, and for the long term. Therefore, certainly, we cannot afford to act with an every-man-for-himself approach, our colleagues have said a lot about it already. I absolutely agree with that.

I will start with the top-priority tasks in healthcare.

First. As has been said, of course it is necessary to continue a regular exchange of credible information about the pandemic's progress in our countries and about the actions being taken. It was also brought up that it is necessary to provide aid to the African countries. I believe that overall today, the World Health Organisation should channel its efforts to detecting hidden coronavirus epidemics in the countries that are not able to organise testing. Also, joint research by our countries could significantly expedite the development of vaccines and medications.

Now, a few words about the economy. The Russian Government is allocating 1.2 percent of Russia's GDP to fight this crisis. Russia's central bank is providing approximately the same amount of support. But all of us, the Group of 20, need a common action plan to stabilise the situation, support our economies and restore trust across global markets.

Of course, national budgets should play a key role in increasing global demand. However, due to the high volatility of global markets that we see every day, borrowing options are limited for many countries - and we must also take this into account.

The situation is getting complicated. In this respect, it is very important, it is extremely important now to ensure access to financing for countries that are suffering from resource shortages, I mean especially countries that have been affected by the crisis and pandemic. In this regard, we could consider creating a special fund under the auspices of the IMF, financed primarily by the central banks that issue currencies included in the IMF basket, and then granting the right to any IMF member to borrow money from this fund in proportion to his share in the world economy at a zero rate for the long term.

A lot has also been said about the need to ensure supply chains. This is certainly important. But it is equally important to create so-called green corridors for the duration of the crisis, free from trade wars and sanctions, for the mutual supply of medicines, food, equipment and technology.

Ideally, we should impose a moratorium, a joint moratorium on restrictions on essentials, as well as on financial transactions for their procurement. And first of all, I am talking about countries that are suffering the most from this pandemic. In the end, this is a question of life and death of people, it is a purely humanitarian issue. We need to cleanse these issues from all kinds of political husk.

When keeping the G20's traditional cooperation between the ministries of finance, the central banks and Sherpas, we could strengthen our cooperation at the economic adviser level during this crisis. They have direct access to state leaders and can make decisions urgently, informally and quickly.

And in conclusion, I would like to say a few words about global international organisations. Obviously, they lack mechanisms for automatic stabilisation in the event of a crisis. And so, it is necessary to efficiently and as quickly as possible, work through and resolve all the issues related to their reorganisation.

Thank you for your attention.

Fed Set to Dial Back Pace of QE Treasury Buying Next Thursday

Says it will trim Treasury purchases to $60 billion April 2-3. The Federal Reserve will slow the pace at which it buys Treasuries under its unlimited quantitative easing program.

The U.S. central bank, which has been aggressively purchasing Treasuries for the past two weeks in a bid to offset the economic and market fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, on Friday said that it would dial back the daily pace of buying to $60 billion next Thursday and Friday. It will continue purchasing at the existing pace of $75 billion a day for the first three days of next week.The central bank announced its return to quantitative easing earlier this month as virus concerns ripped through global markets and the prospects for the global economy cratered. And this past Monday it declared that it would purchase assets "in the amounts needed to support the smooth functioning of markets." It has bought Treasuries at a steady clip of $75 billion a day since then, although there was some talk in the market that the monetary authority might look to ease back.
At this pace the Fed will have bought almost $1 trillion dollars of Treasuries by end of next week.

but they are increasing the amounts of Mortgage Backed Securities they take-announced yesterday

'''Statement Regarding Agency Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities Operations
March 26, 2020'''

Effective March 23, 2020, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) directed the Open Market Trading Desk (the Desk) at the Federal Reserve bank of New York to increase the System Open Market Account (SOMA) holdings of agency mortgage-backed securities in the amounts needed to support smooth market functioning. The FOMC directed the Desk to include purchases of agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (agency CMBS) in such purchases.

The Desk will conduct its first purchase of agency CMBS on Friday March 27, 2020 with a deadline to submit offers to its investment manager at 11:00 am ET.

In this operation, the Desk will purchase up to $1 billion of fixed rate Fannie Mae Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (FNMA DUS) pools, with a 10 year loan term, a yield maintenance protection term of 9.5 years (FNMA DUS 10/9.5), and a weighted average life greater than or equal to 7 years. The Desk, through its investment manager, will solicit offers from primary dealers and will purchase up to $1 billion in total, subject to reasonable market prices. The minimum lot size per CUSIP for this operation is $5 million in current face value.

Next week, the Desk anticipates three operations on Tuesday March 31, 2020, Thursday April 2, 2020, and Friday April 3, 2020 for a tentative total purchase amount of approximately $3 billion. Purchases will be made across fixed-rate FNMA DUS pools, fixed-rate Freddie Mac K-series Deals, and Ginnie Mae Project Loan pools. The details for each operation will be disclosed one day prior to the operation. The term sheet for agency CMBS purchases can be found here.

The Desk will continue to adjust the schedule, size, and composition of purchases as appropriate to support smooth market functioning of agency CMBS markets.

The Fed's Cure Risks Being Worse Than the Disease

Bloomberg
Jim Bianco
BloombergMarch 27, 202

(Bloomberg Opinion) – The economic debate of the day centers on whether the cure of an economic shutdown is worse than the disease of the virus. Similarly, we need to ask if the cure of the Federal Reserve getting so deeply into corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, commercial paper, and exchange-traded funds is worse than the disease seizing financial markets. It may be.

In just these past few weeks, the Fed has cut rates by 150 basis points to near zero and run through its entire 2008 crisis handbook. That wasn't enough to calm markets, though - so the central bank also announced $1 trillion a day in repurchase agreements and unlimited quantitative easing, which includes a hard-to-understand $625 billion of bond buying a week going forward. At this rate, the Fed will own two-thirds of the Treasury market in a year.

But it's the alphabet soup of new programs that deserve special consideration, as they could have profound long-term consequences for the functioning of the Fed and the allocation of capital in financial markets. Specifically, these are:

CPFF (Commercial Paper Funding Facility) - buying commercial paper from the issuer. PMCCF (Primary Market Corporate Credit Facility) - buying corporate bonds from the issuer. TALF (Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility) - funding backstop for asset-backed securities. SMCCF (Secondary Market Corporate Credit Facility) - buying corporate bonds and bond ETFs in the secondary market. MSBLP (Main Street Business Lending Program) - Details are to come, but it will lend to eligible small and medium-size businesses, complementing efforts by the Small Business Association.

To put it bluntly, the Fed isn't allowed to do any of this. The central bank is only allowed to purchase or lend against securities that have government guarantee. This includes Treasury securities, agency mortgage-backed securities and the debt issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. An argument can be made that can also include municipal securities, but nothing in the laundry list above.

So how can they do this? The Fed will finance a special purpose vehicle (SPV) for each acronym to conduct these operations. The Treasury, using the Exchange Stabilization Fund, will make an equity investment in each SPV and be in a "first loss" position. What does this mean? In essence, the Treasury, not the Fed, is buying all these securities and backstopping of loans; the Fed is acting as banker and providing financing. The Fed hired BlackRock Inc. to purchase these securities and handle the administration of the SPVs on behalf of the owner, the Treasury.

In other words, the federal government is nationalizing large swaths of the financial markets. The Fed is providing the money to do it. BlackRock will be doing the trades.

This scheme essentially merges the Fed and Treasury into one organization. So, meet your new Fed chairman, Donald J. Trump.

In 2008 when something similar was done, it was on a smaller scale. Since few understood it, the Bush and Obama administrations ceded total control of those acronym programs to then-Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke. He unwound them at the first available opportunity. But now, 12 years later, we have a much better understanding of how they work. And we have a president who has made it very clear how displeased he is that central bankers haven't used their considerable power to force the Dow Jones Industrial Average at least 10,000 points higher, something he has complained about many times before the pandemic hit.

When the Fed was rightly alarmed by the current dysfunction in the fixed-income markets, they felt they needed to act. This was the correct thought. But, to get the authority to stabilize these "private" markets, central bankers needed the Treasury to agree to nationalize (own) them so they could provide the funds to do it.

In effect, the Fed is giving the Treasury access to its printing press. This means that, in the extreme, the administration would be free to use its control, not the Fed's control, of these SPVs to instruct the Fed to print more money so it could buy securities and hand out loans in an effort to ramp financial markets higher going into the election. Why stop there? Should Trump win re-election, he could try to use these SPVs to get those 10,000 Dow Jones points he feels the Fed has denied everyone.

"Why Lehman Brothers was allowed to fail"

"In a departure from its strategy on other banks, the US Federal Reserve refused to assume any of the risk faced by potential buyers. That decision had massive repercussions"

"Six months previously, Bear Stearns had faced a similar fate but survived when the US central bank, the Federal Reserve, intervened with the US treasury department's support. Why did the US government not intervene in the Lehman case?

"W hen Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy on September 15th, 2008, the financial sector shook across the world. The bank was forced to seek Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the largest ever such filing in US history.

In the case of Bear Stearns, the Fed engineered a sale to JPMorgan Chase by agreeing to assume $29 billion of the risk of losses from Bear Stearns. When potential purchasers of Lehman sought similar assurances from the Fed, the regulator demurred, and the bank was left with little choice but to file for bankruptcy.
According to Lehman's bankruptcy examiner, Lehman's business model was not unique. All of the major investment banks of the time had some high-risk model that required the confidence of counterparties.

While Lehman's assets and liabilities of about $700 billion cancelled each other out, it had insufficient hard cash (about $25 billion) to meet its needs. Confidence in the institution was so low that clients were withdrawing funds at a rate the bank couldn't keep up with."

"Coronavirus Stimulus Offered By House Financial Services Committee Creates New Digital Dollar"

As the markets continue to drop and the U.S. looks to Congress for agreement on a massive stimulus package to save the economy from impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, the newest offer by House Democrats includes a very forward-looking kind of stimulus: the creation of a 'digital dollar' and the establishment of 'digital dollar wallets.' In what will send shock waves through the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry, particularly for those following central bank digital currencies around the world, this signals the U.S. is serious in establishing infrastructure for a central bank digital currency.

Both Speaker Pelosi's 'Take Responsibility for Workers and Families Act' and the 'Financial Protections and Assistance for America's Consumers, States, Businesses, and Vulnerable Populations Act (H.R. 6321),' introduced by Chairwoman Maxine Waters of Financial Services Committee, introduced these concepts today as a way of delivering the economic stimulus payments to U.S. citizens.

Putin: Russia May Defeat Coronavirus in Less Than 3 Months

Russia enacted a series of comprehensive measures to tackle the COVID-19 outbreak in recent weeks, instituting travel restrictions, quarantine for infected individuals, and efforts to make an effective vaccine available following testing.

President Vladimir Putin has expressed confidence that Russia will stop the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, and said that doing so is only a matter of time and the effectiveness of joint work between the state, society and business.

"When the situation changes, it will definitely change for the better - this is 100 percent certain. The question, of course, is in the duration, and the effectiveness of our joint work, and all of the people who use your free content or your products today will remain your customers," the president said, speaking at a meeting with representatives of the business community on Thursday.

Expressing confidence in Russia's COVID-19 response, Putin said he agreed with the idea that the country could fight off the virus in less than three months.

"Our colleague expects that we will deal with the coronavirus in two or three months time. This is already a good prognosis, because in some countries, it is said that the war with the virus (they call it a 'war') will be a very long one. But when we make it out of this situation, and we will do so, I hope this takes place maybe even earlier than you've said," Putin said, responding to an IT entrepreneur's comment about possible state support for companies in the digital knowledge market.

During their meeting, representatives of business proposed simplifying the procedure for the certification of items such as disinfectant equipment, down from the current 3-6 month process in place today. Putin said he welcomed the idea, saying the state will do its part to implement this, but added that a measure of control must remain in place to ensure safety for consumers.

Putin also discussed with entrepreneurs some of the economic measures he announced Wednesday in his address to the nation, including financial support measures for businesses, a six month tax holiday for small businesses and measures by the central bank to prevent layoffs and bankruptcies.
Russia's Anti-COVID-19 Measures

Russia has joined countries around the globe in introducing a series of medical and economic measures to combat the spread of the new coronavirus. These have included travel restrictions, quarantine for infected individuals and people over the age of 65, a week long paid holiday for non-essential workers starting next week, funding to encourage businesses to convert their resources to the production of medical equipment, and other measures. Russian scientists have also begun the development of potential coronavirus vaccines after sequencing COVID-19's genome last week.

On Thursday, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin signed a decree suspending the work of city restaurants, bars, cafes and buffets, with the exception of takeout services, in connection with the pandemic. All shops in the capital excepting pharmacies and those selling essential goods will also be closed. Some major parks have also been closed, and the mayor has urged residents to abstain from visiting places of worship.

Russia presently has about 840 confirmed COVID-19 cases, most of them in the capital, as well as three fatalities, and the World Health Organization has said that so far, it sees no reason for a hard quarantine to be established in the country, given that it is already "one step ahead" in its fight against the virus.

Coronavirus Stimulus Offered By House Financial Services Committee Creates New Digital Dollar
https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbrett/2020/03/23/new-coronavirus-stimulus-bill-introduces-digital-dollar-and-digital-dollar-wallets/#756a546a4bea

Updated on 3/24/20 at 11:45 AM: The final version of the economic stimulus package offered by Speaker Pelosi the House Democrats no longer includes the U.S. Digital Dollar proposal; however, the language as proposed by Chairwoman Waters of the House Financial Services Committee still contains this language. Links to the original and updated stimulus bills with the latest language are at the end of the story.
As the markets continue to drop and the U.S. looks to Congress for agreement on a massive stimulus package to save the economy from impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, the newest offer by House Democrats includes a very forward-looking kind of stimulus: the creation of a 'digital dollar' and the establishment of 'digital dollar wallets.' In what will send shock waves through the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry, particularly for those following central bank digital currencies around the world, this signals the U.S. is serious in establishing infrastructure for a central bank digital currency.
Both Speaker Pelosi's 'Take Responsibility for Workers and Families Act' and the 'Financial Protections and Assistance for America's Consumers, States, Businesses, and Vulnerable Populations Act (H.R. 6321),' introduced by Chairwoman Maxine Waters of Financial Services Committee, introduced these concepts today as a way of delivering the economic stimulus payments to U.S. citizens.

The bill establishes a digital dollar, which it defines as 'a balance expressed as a dollar value consisting of digital ledger entries that are recorded as liabilities in the accounts of any Federal Reserve bank or … an electronic unit of value, redeemable by an eligible financial institution (as determined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System).' Additionally, a digital dollar wallet is identified as 'a digital wallet or account, maintained by a Federal reserve bank on behalf of any person, that represents holdings in an electronic device or service that is used to store digital dollars that may be tied to a digital or physical identity.'
A mandate also requires all 'member banks' establish a 'pass-through digital dollar wallet' to all customers eligible for the stimulus. Member banks include those banks that are 'members' of the Federal Reserve and regulated by the Fed. Additionally, 'Non-Member' state banks - those that not members of the Federal Reserve and regulated by the FDIC - could opt-in to offer pass-through digital dollar wallets as well.

Record Numbers Are Frontrunning The Fed's Purchases Of Corporate Bonds

As part of the Fed's ongoing nationalization bailout of the entire market, yesterday we pointed out that in a dramatic reversal away from years in which the Fed would not intervene in the corporate market, the US central bank would now buy Investment Grade corporate bonds, and would even intervene in equities, by purchasing the LQD investment grade debt ETF.

Commenting on this stunning departure, this morning Nomura's Charlie McElligott said that "we actually see the Fed in the game of not simply suppressing the risk-free rate, and thus term-premium, as they did last time-but now buying spread-product (beyond MBS alone) with risk-assets outright / through the new SPV-it is reasonable to believe that investors will "reverse engineer" the Jay Powell playbook noted above, and go with their muscle-memory from this Fed "short volatility positioning" prior conditioning."

Judging by the market's surge today, the answer is yes. But even before that, savvy investors realized that the most bang for the risk-free buck comes by purchasing the one ETF that the Fed is now explicitly backstopping, and as Bloomberg notes, "the rush into investment-grade bonds picked up after the Federal Reserve said it will step into the market, with the world's largest credit ETF seeing the second-biggest inflows in its 18-year history."

Kenya Seeks $1.2 Billion From IMF, World bank Amid Virus

Budget support expected by early May will boost forex reserves. State still in talks with IMF for a standby credit facility.

A staff member of Kenya's Ministry of Health sprays disinfectant on a rock which people sit on to curb the spread of the chinavirus at the Gikomba Market in Nairobi. Kenya is in talks with the World bank for budget support of $750 million and the International Monetary Fund for $350 million in emergency assistance.

The East African nation also expects to receive $50 million from the World bank to support its efforts against the brunt of the chinavirus pandemic, central bank Governor Patrick Njoroge said in a briefing held a day after policy makers cut the benchmark interest rate to an eight-year low.

Talks between Kenya and the IMF for a standby credit facility are ongoing on, he said. Kenya has 16 confirmed cases of the chinavirus.

The funds could start flowing by end-April or early May and "will undoubtedly also support our reserves," Njoroge said. Kenya has $8.25 billion in reserves, sufficient for five months of imports, according to the central bank. Apart from the monetary measures that include a drop in the cash reserve ratio to increase liquidity, the government is also expected to announce some fiscal actions, Njoroge said. While the dollar has appreciated against most currencies, other factors have been driving a slide by the Kenyan shilling, Njoroge said, blaming a "misunderstanding" by some dealers about the central bank's plans to shore up its reserves by buying as much as $100 million monthly. There are also some "malicious actors in the market," he said.

The Kenyan shilling has weakened 5% so far this month to its lowest yet against the dollar. It touched a record 107.20 in earlier trade on Tuesday.

"Our exchange-rate policy hasn't deviated," Njoroge said. "It's always been a flexible exchange-rate regime, but we intervene to minimize volatility."

Q Research General #10932: American Ingenuity Edition

From what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

-Environmental policy change
reorganizing NEPA so projects can proceed in a timely manner (1 year vs 10)
especially WRT to large-scale infrastructure projects,
? which will have a ripple-out effect on local economies, not to mention building material supply, manufacture and transport and retailers of those same
-SBA changes to give incentive and make it easier for more Americans to be small entrepreneurs
-Tax code changes
so that American business becomes attractive and profitable
-Healthcare fixes
No more Obamacare mandate, I believe POTUS will 'jump off' to something much better from there (not revealed yet)
? breaking the grip of Big Pharma and their monopoly on allopathic modality & medicines
Releasing actual cures to the public and a resurgence of naturopathic practice and healthy living
-Apprenticeship programs
not only for traditional trades but over 3k companies have pledged to take HS grads and do on-the-job training, bypassing the Snowflakes' domain of college entirely
-Unleashing our energy sector
not limited to oil/nat gas
"new sources of energy" have been mentioned at least 3 times by POTUS, so important
? (not announced yet) I believe that POTUS will make it attractive (at least not suppress) alternative energies as well as the manufacture of devices or adapters to transition over to those new energy sources
*Our nuclear plants are at the end of their lives, so they have to be replaced with something. POTUS is a forward-looking guy, and I believe, considering Projects LG and Pegasus, he can see what will work, and do what is necessary to get us there.*
-Break the FED
POTUS has floated a women to replace the head who is hostile to the FED itself, which is a major shot across the bow.
While he has never mentioned it, outright or a coded message I have seen, I can see him, at the right point in time, nationalizing the central bank, issuing State-backed currency and destroying the FED, thereby breaking the ultimate hold of USURY over the world.

It seems that decades of mismanagement, shamefully incompetent leadership and actual disdain of the American citizenry has conditioned a majority of Americans to not realize our true potential - our creativity, our ingenuity, our incredible productive power and the power that we really have when we unite towards achieving a common goal, and so many citizens cannot envision in their minds what we are able to quickly, efficiently and competently accomplish, such as reorienting our manufacturing base quickly to one set of tasks and then doing it again a short time later.

One of our main tasksings from Q+ was to do research so we, anons, would be able to see how bad it really is, sure, but also so that we would be able to pay attention to what POTUS has been doing that no one else is really putting together, namely what was mentioned above.
Our other main tasking was to produce graphics to "educate and calm the public during, and after, the Storm."

We are in possession, as we are told, of much more than we know. We are in possession than far more than the public, who is scared and feeling lost and alone right now. Our job is to educate them on several aspects of the big picture about what has come before, is happening now and what is to come.

And The Best is Yet to Come is not just an empty phrase. Considering Projects LG and Pegasus, and all that Q has told us (timelines change, sometimes people need to see the future in order to save the past, time travel is fun... or?, timing is everthing, etc.) that POTUS has been able to do what needs to be done so that together we are able to weather the Storm, and come out on the other side to a beautiful, incredible future.

WWG1WGA is also not an empty phrase.Together. We are going into the future together, and unlike empires of the past, we will not oppress or suppress other Patriots around the world. We will build them up, help them reach their potentials and build an even better future. Together.

Putin Flies Help to Virus-Stricken Italy, Exploiting EU Fumble

Doctors, supplies sent after phone call with Premier Conte. Italy is fertile ground for Russian diplomatic offensive. As soon as Vladimir Putin got off the phone with the desperate Italian prime minister, Russian aid was being loaded onto military planes, headed for the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic.

The consignment was given a high-profile reception by Giuseppe Conte's government, with Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio there to see the reinforcements land at a military airport south of Rome on Sunday night. As well as protective masks and coats, ventilators, swabs and testing equipment, there were doctors and disinfection teams on board, according to the Italian Foreign Ministry.

With Italy's economy collapsing and its hospitals buckling under an avalanche of new cases, the European central bank dramatically ramped up its bond-buying program last week and the European Union is considering unleashing its 410 billion-euro ($440 billion) bailout fund to help keep the country afloat. Yet the bloc has left itself vulnerable to a PR coup from Russia and China in a critical member state.

EU leaders have stirred up resentment in Italy by restricting exports of critical medical supplies as they prepare their own health-care systems for an onslaught of infections. That opened the door for Putin and China's Xi Jinping. The Russian supplies were dispatched bearing a sticker with a heart and the words "From Russia with Love," news wire Ansa reported. Putin's opportunistic diplomacy follows a long courtship of officials in Rome, who've been among the strongest advocates of a rapprochement with Moscow within the EU and NATO.

Yet the humanitarian cargo is only one side of Putin's double game when it comes to Europe and its health-care crisis. According to an internal EU report, Russia is also responsible for an organized campaign spreading disinformation about the coronavirus with the intention of undermining confidence in western leaders.

For any geopolitical rivals seeking to undermine EU unity, Italy is a weak link, since many of its voters blame the euro for decades of economic malaise and are inclined to back populist and euroskeptic parties.

WTF?

BofA Calls For "War-Time Measures", Urges Near-Total Fed Takeover Of Capital Markets

Last Sunday, when the Fed threw what appeared to be the kitchen sink at crashing markets, cutting rates to 0%, unveiling a $700BN QE (since expanded to include another $100BN in MBS), and enhancing G-5 central bank FX swap lines (since expanded to include numerous non-G5 banks), many wondered why the Fed withheld the one instrument considered critical in restoring market stability, preventing the commercial paper market from seizing up and preventing mutual fund runs, namely a commercial paper backstop facility. Then, just 48 hours later, the Fed did just that as stocks continue to plunge, and even though the Fed has since unveiled even more Lehman-era anti crisis measures, it has now become apparent that merely redoing what the Fed did in 2008 won't be enough. Trying to one-up itself, and reverse the market panic, on Friday morning the Fed also announced a municipal bond bailout by including munis to the MMLF, yet even that was not sufficient to prevent stocks from crashing on quad-witching Friday.

So here we are late on Sunday night, with S&P futures just shy of limit down, waiting for Congress to pass a massive multi-trillion bailout legislation with Democrats and Republicans putting on a good show of sticking to their ideological talking points and roadblocking the bill's passage even though everyone knows it will pass, the only question is how much more pain will markets take before this too shall pass.

And yet, to some - such as bank of America which was most vocal in demanding a commercial paper facility last weekend (which now seems like years ago) - not even a massive bailout package passed by Congress, one that would grant the Fed de facto powers to buy corporate bonds, will be enough.

Instead, as BofA's rates strategist Marc Cabana writes, there is "growing potential for the Fed to step up its already impressive policy response as lender of last resort." Specifically, in the coming days and weeks BofA sees a growing likelihood of:

Adoption of UST yield curve targeting
Full and unlimited backstop to the Agency MBS market
Addressing regulatory constraints that have plagued intermediation of Fed repo
Re-launch of a new TALF-like program offering senior funding on ABS, CMBS, CLOs, longer-dated munis, and investment grade corporates
Provide guidance on the potential resolution plan for any failing entities to avoid fire sales of less liquid, riskier assets such as high yield debt, mezzanine structured product tranches, CRTs, and MSRs. Hurdles for this may prove high.

In short, BofA agrees with Zoltan Pozsar, who last week once again assessed the damage and said that the Fed will effectively have to backstop everyone and everything, in declaring a virtually total takeover of capital markets by the Fed, which is now in critical triage mode, designed to prevent further asset losses which from this point on, would have dire social and perhaps civilizations implications, potentially even the civil war that Time Magazine one mocked us for predicting back in 2010 when we said that the Fed has put the US on collision course with armed social conflict.

US central bank Pulling Out Stops to Try to Calm Market Amid Coronavirus Crisis??

As the global coronavirus pandemic wreaks economic destruction around the world, the U.S. government has taken a number of dramatic steps to keep money moving through the U.S. economy.

The Treasury Department on Friday announced that it would postpone the deadline for filing 2019 income taxes to July 15, from April 15. At the same time, the Federal Reserve has slashed interest rates and taken a number of steps that will allow it to continue pushing money into the hands of businesses and individual borrowers through all means available - some of which it has not yet activated.

So far, the Fed's actions have done little to calm the stock market, which in the past week has wiped out the record gains achieved since President Donald Trump took office in January 2017. But the Fed and the Treasury still have a few more financial and monetary tools at their disposal to try to still the panic of investors.

The Treasury Department's decision to delay the tax filing deadline could ease liquidity pressure on businesses and individuals who will be hit hard by the economic contraction the United States will inevitably suffer in the coming weeks and perhaps months.

After Bernanke & Yellen Demand 'Monetize Everything', Congress Considers Allowing Fed To Buy Corporate Bonds

So far in this 'everything bubble'-burst crisis, the Fed has:

-Cut interest rates from 1.25% to 0.15%.
-Launched over $700 billion in Quarantitative Easing (QE).
-Launched a $1.5 trillion repo program.
-Launched another $1 trillion repo program…. daily!
-Announced it will begin buying commercial paper (short-term corporate debt).
-Allowed primary dealers to start parking assets, including stocks, as collateral in exchange for short-term credit.
-Announced it will begin buying muni debt.
-Opened unlimited dollar-swap-lines to the world.

And the result of all this record amount of liquidity provision - almost $30 trillion of global wealth destruction (bonds and stocks). every aspect of the credit markets - from short-term munis to long-term commercial mortgage-backeds - is completely frozen.

"It's brutal. We have never seen such a big move in such a short amount of time… This is the quickest and most severe I have ever experienced, and I was around for 2008."

Enter former Fed Chairs Ben Bernanke and Janet Yellen, who, as we detailed earlier this week, urged the Fed to begin buying corporate debt and stocks in an op-ed piece in the Financial Times this morning the two former Fed Chairs.

The Fed could ask Congress for the authority to buy limited amounts of investment-grade corporate debt. Most central banks already have this power, and the European central bank and the bank of England regularly use it. The Fed's intervention could help restart that part of the corporate debt market, which is under significant stress. Such a programme would have to be carefully calibrated to minimise the credit risk taken by the Fed while still providing needed liquidity to an essential market.

Currently the Fed is forbidden from doing either as per the Federal Reserve Act. Put another way, congress would need to authorize the Fed to start buying these assets, and the two former Fed Chairs are providing the political cover to do this. Emergency facilities with the Fed would mobilize "up to $4 trillion of liquidity," Mnuchin said, though it was unclear whether that included programs already announced by the central bank.

According to subsequent reports from the WSJ, the current iteration of the massive bailout Bill being mulled in Congress, has the following provisions:

The economic stabilization bill will include significant funding for the ESF so that Treasury can cover credit losses for Federal Reserve 13(3) lending facilities

One draft of the bill would put $425 billion into the Treasury that the Fed could use to cover losses on lending facilities. Last week, the Fed launched three of these 13(3) facilities, two of them with $10 billion each from the Treasury to indemnify against losses. This would allow the Fed to stand up a new generation of emergency lending programs that could support markets for securitization, investment grade corporates, longer-dated munis or small business loans.

In other words, the Fed is about to have a green light to buy corporate bonds.

Finally, remember just a month ago, Janet Yellen suggested that The Fed should buy stocks in the next crisis.

We wonder how long before that is added to The Fed's mandate explicitly? Of course, buying stocks worked out really well for The bank of Japan which now faces trillions in losses on its insane ETF buying program.

Q Research General #10908: Anons BTFO The Left Con Edition

The Economics of Currency Redenomination

ABSTRACT
On 14th August 2007, the central bank of Nigeria (CBN) through its governor made public its proposal to restructure and redenominate the naira by dropping two zeros or moving two decimal points to the left from the currency and issuing
more coin denominations with a view to ensuring macroeconomic stability and efficient payment system. The announcement, which took many by surprise, generated a lot of debate among Nigerians and non-Nigerians within and outside the country. While some are of the view that the CBN deserves commendation for the bold step, others are condemning the entire proposal, yet another group try to synthesise the various views from political economy perspectives. Although, the scheme has since been suspended, stakeholders and observers continue to express their views and opinions about the desirability and timeliness of the policy. Accordingly, this paper appraises the suspended naira redenomination scheme in the light of its objectives. The paper is descriptive with presentation based on literature survey and desk analysis. The paper confirms that currency redenomination is based on some happenings within a country and its outcome depends on various fiscal and monetary policies aimed at stabilising the economy.

It further posits that redenomination of the naira is not completely a bad policy despite the problems associated with it. It however, suggests that the new strategy should be thoroughly studied and understood, and should go beyond its psychological and portability effects; it should be associated with broader macroeconomic and fiscal objectives.

I think redenomination is coming.

Q Research General #10898: Their Fu Is Weak Edition

NO FEAR HERE!
From what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

-Environmental policy change
reorganizing NEPA so projects can proceed in a timely manner (1 year vs 10)
especially WRT to large-scale infrastructure projects,
? which will have a ripple-out effect on local economies, not to mention building material supply, manufacture and transport and retailers of those same
-SBA changes to give incentive and make it easier for more Americans to be small entrepreneurs
-Tax code changes
so that American business becomes attractive and profitable
-Healthcare fixes
No more Obamacare mandate, I believe POTUS will 'jump off' to something much better from there (not revealed yet)
? breaking the grip of Big Pharma and their monopoly on allopathic modality & medicines
Releasing actual cures to the public and a resurgence of naturopathic practice and healthy living
-Apprenticeship programs
not only for traditional trades but over 3k companies have pledged to take HS grads and do on-the-job training, bypassing the Snowflakes' domain of college entirely
-Unleashing our energy sector
not limited to oil/nat gas
"new sources of energy" have been mentioned at least 3 times by POTUS, so important
? (not announced yet) I believe that POTUS will make it attractive (at least not suppress) alternative energies as well as the manufacture of devices or adapters to transition over to those new energy sources
*Our nuclear plants are at the end of their lives, so they have to be replaced with something. POTUS is a forward-looking guy, and I believe, considering Projects LG and Pegasus, he can see what will work, and do what is necessary to get us there.*
-Break the FED
POTUS has floated a women to replace the head who is hostile to the FED itself, which is a major shot across the bow.
While he has never mentioned it, outright or a coded message I have seen, I can see him, at the right point in time, nationalizing the central bank, issuing State-backed currency and destroying the FED, thereby breaking the ultimate hold of USURY over the world.

It seems that decades of mismanagement, shamefully incompetent leadership and actual disdain of the American citizenry has conditioned a majority of Americans to not realize our true potential - our creativity, our ingenuity, our incredible productive power and the power that we really have when we unite towards achieving a common goal, and so many citizens cannot envision in their minds what we are able to quickly, efficiently and competently accomplish, such as reorienting our manufacturing base quickly to one set of tasks and then doing it again a short time later.

One of our main tasksings from Q+ was to do research so we, anons, would be able to see how bad it really is, sure, but also so that we would be able to pay attention to what POTUS has been doing that no one else is really putting together, namely what was mentioned above.
Our other main tasking was to produce graphics to "educate and calm the public during, and after, the Storm."

We are in possession, as we are told, of much more than we know. We are in possession than far more than the public, who is scared and feeling lost and alone right now. Our job is to educate them on several aspects of the big picture about what has come before, is happening now and what is to come.

And The Best is Yet to Come is not just an empty phrase. Considering Projects LG and Pegasus, and all that Q has told us (timelines change, sometimes people need to see the future in order to save the past, time travel is fun... or?, timing is everthing, etc.) that POTUS has been able to do what needs to be done so that together we are able to weather the Storm, and come out on the other side to a beautiful, incredible future.

WWG1WGA is also not an empty phrase.Together. We are going into the future together, and unlike empires of the past, we will not oppress or suppress other Patriots around the world. We will build them up, help them reach their potentials and build an even better future. Together.

The Treasury's Helicopter Cop??Out

> https://www.cato.org/blog/treasurys-helicopter-cop-out

Predictably, the depths of the present economic crisis, including the remarkable flattening of interest rates since it began, have led to several calls by economists, including Jordi Gali and the Mercatus Institute's David Beckworth, for the Fed and other central banks to ready their money choppers for a major money-financed spending-spree.

Helicopter Money vs. Deficit Monetization
"Helicopter money" in its strictest sense is money simply given to people by a central bank. This needn't be done using actual helicopters, of course; and in practice, proposals for it have central banks handing out free money, not directly to the public, but to their sponsoring governments, for use in financing some spending or transfer program.

Either way-and this point is crucial-helicopter money is distinct from deficit monetization in its usually-understood sense. As Kevin Dowd explains, "debt monetization involves an explicit increase in the federal government's indebtedness, whereas under helicopter money that same increased indebtedness is written off by the Fed" or whichever central bank undertakes it. It has the central bank increasing its liabilities without acquiring any offsetting, valuable asset.

Alternatively, as "Helicopter Ben" explains, helicopter money can be likened to an extreme version of deficit monetization in which the Treasury gets money from the Fed in exchange for a security that bears no interest and that the Fed agrees to hold on to forever. The Fed, in other words, has to commit itself to permanently increase its balance sheet by the amount of its security "purchase."

Dubious Advantages
The benefits of helicopter money, Bernanke explains, consist of

(1) the direct effects of the public works spending on GDP, jobs, and income;

(2) the increase in household income from the rebate, which should induce greater consumer spending;

(3) a temporary increase in expected inflation, the result of the increase in the money supply. Assuming that nominal interest rates are pinned near zero, higher expected inflation implies lower real interest rates, which in turn should incentivize capital investments and other spending; and

(4) the fact that, unlike debt-financed fiscal programs, a money-financed program does not increase future tax burdens.

significantly, as Bernanke also notes, advantages (1) and (2) would also be achieved by a debt-financed government spending program. Benefit (3) can, in turn, be achieved through other sorts of unconventional monetary policy, including either ordinary or expanded-asset quantitative easing (QE), aided perhaps by a Fed commitment to temporarily raise its inflation target, or by its agreeing to switch to NGDP level targeting.

This leaves only advantage (4). But this "advantage" is no real advantage at all. It assumes, first of all, that Ricardian Equivalence holds, or at least that the public takes considerable account of future tax increases in adjusting their current spending, but that they do not take future inflation into account in doing so.* But that's not all: under the present abundant reserves or "floor" system, even helicopter money generates a future tax burden, because it generates fresh reserves on which the Fed must pay interest at a variable rate; and the Fed may have to increase this rate to keep inflation under control.

And Real Disadvantages
If the advantages of helicopter money are doubtful, its potential costs are hard to dispute. Here again, Bernanke is a good guide. He observes, among other things, that "helicopter money" might prove incompatible with the Fed's use of an interest-rate operating target and that it could threaten the Fed's political independence, particularly by serving "as a 'slippery slope' for legislators, who might be tempted to use it to facilitate spending or tax cuts when such actions no longer make macroeconomic sense"-that is, as a slippery-slope leading toward "fiscal QE."

Perhaps the biggest drawback of helicopter money has to do with the way in which it smudges the boundary line separating fiscal from monetary policy, and the division of powers that boundary line is supposed to protect. This problem becomes most evident in pondering the question, "whose responsibility is helicopter money?" while supposing that Treasury-central bank cooperation can't be counted on. If the government is to take the initiative, then the central bank must be made subservient to it, risking the undermining of its monetary control while opening the floodgates to fiscal QE. If, on the other hand, the central bank is to take charge, the government must arrange its spending plans in accordance with the central bank's wishes. Neither prospect seems appealing. Call it the "helicopter money dilemma."

Mexico Unexpectedly Cuts Key Rate, Offers Dollar Auctions

Banxico reduces rate by half point to 6.50% ahead of meeting. Will lower reserve requirements to help face outbreak impact.

Mexico's central bank unexpectedly cut its benchmark interest rate by half a percentage point on Friday and said it was taking additional liquidity measures to support the economy that is seen slumping into recession with the coronovirus outbreak.

Banxico cut its main rate to 6.5% from 7% after an unscheduled board meeting, the bank said in a statement on its website. One member of the board voted for smaller, quarter point cut, it said.

Mexico joins a wave of monetary stimulus as policy makers in every continent seek to shield their economies from a global downturn that analysts see as increasingly likely. The move follows a decision by Peru to also cut its key rate in a surprise move Thursday and comes before Banxico's scheduled meeting for March 26. "Global and domestic financial markets have been subject to high volatility over the last weeks due to the uncertainty regarding the impact of COVID-19 on world economic activity, and to the recent fall in international oil prices. In this context, foreign exchange and fixed income markets in Mexico have undergone significant adjustments, lower liquidity, and a deterioration of trading conditions," Banxico said in the statement. The bank also said it would take additional measures such as reducing reserve requirements for banks, and offering dollar auctions. The Mexican peso, the world's worst major currency in the past month, extended losses and headed to a record low close after the unexpected move

The true enemies of liberty and all modern societies and people are the central bank counterfeiters. The largest counterfeiter in the history of the world consists of the Federal Reserve banking scheme, which counterfeits American dollars through fiat currency and fractional reserve banking.

America Freedom to Fascism exposes the fraud and deceit of the Federal Reserve banks (Fed), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the 16th Amendment, the income tax, the Federal Reserve System, national ID cards (REAL ID Act), human-implanted RFID tags (Spychips), Diebold electronic voting machines, New World Order (globalization), Big Brother, taser weapons abuse, and the use of terrorism by government as a means to diminish the citizens' rights.

The Federal Reserve System is a privately held, for profit corporation, and not a government agency. It was created by bankers for bankers as a lender of last resort, so that whenever a banker ran his businesses poorly he could be bailed out at the expense of the public. The Fed does not have any reserves, it simply creates fiat money out of nothing and lends it out at interest to businesses and the federal government. The American people are then forced to pay for the bailouts to government and businesses through inflation and personal income taxes on their labor. The currency the Fed creates out of thin air and loans out to the government at interest is called Federal Reserve Notes - look at the top of what you may think are your Dollars and you will see they are actually Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs). FRNs are backed by nothing. US Dollars are required by law to be backed by gold and silver, but US Dollars are no longer in circulation. The only real US Dollars still somewhat in circulation are US Silver Eagles and Gold Eagle coins, but they have become so valuable due to the Fed's inflation and destruction of the FRN currency, that it takes thousands of FRNs just to buy a single US $50 gold coin, and dozens of FRNs to buy a single US $1 Dollar silver coin.

The Federal Reserve System operates through manipulation of interest rates, which results in expanding and retracting bubbles of inflation, referred to as business cycles. When the Fed inflates the currency, it is effectively a hidden tax on existing currency, because the value of the newly created currency is stolen from the value of existing currency. This is reflected in continually rising prices, even though advances in technology and manufacturing processes should result in lower prices and a higher standard of living for everyone. Since the creation of the Fed in 1913, it has debased 99% of the value of the Dollar. In other words, it now takes $100 FRNs to buy what just $1 US Dollar would buy in 1913, as a result of inflation due to the Fed counterfeiting so much currency. If you had saved $100 in 1913, it would now only buy as much as a single 1913 Dollar would have bought at that time. The other $99 of value would have been stolen through counterfeiting (cheaply duplicating money out of nothing) over the years, resulting in the vale of the $100 being taxed through inflation, behind your back.

Norway Loses One-Fifth of Its Oil Wealth as Krone Collapses, Analysts Say

According to experts' calculations, Norway's Oil Fund has decreased in value by 23 percent since New Year, suffering the "biggest drop" in its decades-long history.

Norway's Oil Fund has taken a serious dent amid plummeting oil prices and an ongoing fall of the krone, broadcaster NRK reported.

Despite the Oil Fund currently being listed as worth NOK 300 billion more than at the turn of the year, this is merely an illusion, as none of its assets are in kroner, experts estimated.

"Rarely have developments been more misleading than now. In reality, we have lost more than one fifth of our oil wealth", Nordea investment director Robert Næss told NRK.

According to Næss's calculations, while the Fund's value in Norwegian kroner has risen by 3 percent since New Year, the reality measured in US dollars or euros is quite the opposite.

At the end of last year, the Oil Fund was worth about $1,149 billion. Now, it is worth around $882 billion, a decrease of 23 percent. The fall is so drastic that it equals the value of the entire 2020 state budget not once, but twice.

"We have never seen such a large fall in global stock markets within a quarter. The equity ratio is also sky high, which makes it likely to be the weakest quarter for the Oil Fund ever", Næss commented.

Eika group chief economist Jan Ludvig Andreassen concurred with this estimate. According to him, the value of the Oil Fund has dropped to around $800 billion.

"In absolute terms, this is the biggest drop in the value of the Oil Fund ever", he Andreassen said.

Much of the fall is due to a weakening krone, central bank governor and Oil Fund chairman Øystein Olsen admitted. Since the New Year, the krone has collapsed as international oil prices went into free fall.

Plummeting oil prices have been ascribed to a supply and demand shock happening at the same time due to the coronavirus pandemic and OPEC+ failure to agree on production cuts, commonly described as a "price war".

The euro and the dollar have both appreciated against the "record weak" krone by one-third and 38 percent respectively since New Year.

The Government Pension Fund of Norway, established in 1990 to funnel surplus revenues from the petroleum sector and commonly referred to as the Oil Fund, comprises two separate sovereign wealth funds owned and managed by the government of Norway. It owns shares in 9,000 limited companies, and has large investments in government debt, corporate debt, and property abroad.

Emerging market currencies plunge in pandemic sell-off

Rupee falls to all-time low and rupiah plumbs post-Asian crisis depths. Emerging market currencies have been pummeled by the novel coronavirus pandemic as frightened investors pull money out of economically vulnerable corners of the world.

India's rupee fell to a record-low 75 against the dollar on Thursday while the Indonesian rupiah touched 15,400 against the greenback at one point, a level not seen since the Asian currency crisis in 1998.

Those nations are scrambling to support their economies through rate cuts, fueling currency sell-offs. The pandemic that has upended people's lives across the globe is now threatening an economic crisis in those regions.

Those nations are all plagued by the double whammy of a current-account deficit and a budget deficit. The turmoil from the coronavirus outbreak will inevitably widen red ink in national budgets while plunging prices of top exports, such as natural resources and agricultural products, will also worsen current account balances.

Concerns about the toll on India's economy has sparked an outflow of capital. India is a net importer of petroleum, but despite the drop in crude oil prices, the rupee still traces a downward spiral.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday urged the country's 1.3 billion citizens to stay indoors to protect themselves from the coronavirus. He called for a self-imposed curfew from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. from March 22. This is certain to exacerbate the economic blow.

There are at least 173 confirmed cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, in India as of Thursday, including infected foreign nationals, according to the country's health ministry. Though the figure is relatively low, it has more than doubled during the past week.

central banks in emerging nations have aggressively loosened monetary policies to shore up their economies. Indonesia's central bank said Thursday a policy rate cut of 25 basis points to 4.50%, marking the second reduction in as many months.

The Philippines decided the same day to slash its benchmark interest rate by 50 basis points to 3.25%. The country's central bank eased rates for two consecutive policy meetings, and the size of the reduction widened from February's cut of 25 basis points.

But interest rate cuts tend to exacerbate currency depreciation, so it remains to be seen how far central bankers can go on the easing route.

In emerging countries, capital has flowed out of equity and debt markets at unprecedented scales. Daily net portfolio outflows by nonresident investors have exceeded $2.5 billion, according to a report from the Institute of International Finance, based on a 28-day moving average. The rate is more than twice as large as the attrition observed during the 2008 global financial crisis.

Emerging nations are prepared to prop up currencies through mass purchases. But in the case of Turkey, its foreign exchange reserves are only enough to cover four or five months' worth of imports, leaving it with less than ample firepower for currency intervention. Turkey's lira weakened against the dollar to the lowest level since September 2018 on Thursday.

The coronavirus outbreak is poised to unleash a negative feedback loop in emerging economies. Softer currencies mean imports will be more expensive for consumers at home, which will curtail domestic spending. The stagnated traffic in people and goods would cause small businesses to go under, increasing the jobless rate. Spending would further decrease, resulting in a steeper economic slowdown.

Frankly, from what I've seen and read about Projects Looking Glass and Pegasus, it is fairly clear to me that POTUS' moves in the last 3 years were calculated so that when the virus was released, the US would be able to adapt and overcome it, and, while other countries around the world were backed into a corner by the truly insanely stupid policies of the globalists in charge, they will really be weakened and suffer, on the other side of this while the US will be in a position to switch around our manufacturing to products that had been off-shored before, making us even more secure and stronger, and putting us in a position to absolutely dominate the world's economy and production.

Khazarian Jews Kicked Out of Russia

1-20-2020 Ben Fulford:
Basically, David Rothschild was kicked out and the Russian central bank was nationalized, which is why half the government was fired, FSB sources tell us.

Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."
Sauce: https://tass.com/top-officials/1043741

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanu-el Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week. A first cousin of former Emperor Hirohito tells us the bank of Japan has been nationalized and the Rothschilds as well as the Rockefellers have been removed from control of this country.

U.S. oil reverses losses, posts largest one-day gain on record

U.S. crude oil prices spiked by 25% on Thursday, the largest single-day gain on record, recouping some losses from three days of selling that drove the benchmark to near 20-year lows. Analysts saw the rebound as a brief reprieve, anticipating additional weakness as the coronavirus outbreak takes its toll on global demand. U.S. crude and global benchmark Brent have both lost half their value in less than two weeks, most of that since March 6, the day talks between OPEC and allies including Russia broke down. Oil extended gains late in the day after U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he would get involved in the dispute between Saudi Arabia and Russia "at the appropriate time."

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude CLc1 settled up $4.85, or 24%, to $25.22 after dropping nearly 25% to an 18-year low in the previous session. It then briefly extended gains in post-close trading to as much as 35%.

Brent crude LCOc1 settled up $3.59, or 14.4%, at $28.47 a barrel, having plunged to $24.52 on Wednesday, its lowest since 2003. Oil's respite came as investors across financial markets assessed the impact of massive central bank stimulus measures. U.S. lawmakers were rushing on Thursday to forge a massive economic stimulus package to counter the impact of the outbreak.

central banks have moved to mitigate the spiralling economic and financial fallout from the pandemic, with the European central bank kicking off a 750 billion euro ($820 billion) emergency bond purchase scheme.

Following the breakdown of talks between Saudi Arabia and Russia, the de facto leader of OPEC announced plans to increase supply to a record 12.3 million barrels per day (bpd) and cut the official selling price for its oil by several dollars per barrel. In the United States, where dozens of shale oil and gas drillers and services companies risk bankruptcy, senators on Wednesday urged the two countries to halt their price war during talks with the kingdom's envoy to Washington. Trump noted, however, that low gasoline prices were good for U.S. consumers even as they were hurting the industry. "At the appropriate time I'll get involved," he said.

The drop in demand, particularly in transportation, is also leading to a rapidly growing glut in refined products such as jet fuel and gasoline.

Fed Expands Dollar Swap Lines With Nine More central banks Amid Unprecedented Dollar Short Squeeze

As we reported yesterday, one of the recommendations proposed by repo "god" Zoltan Pozsar to restore dollar liquidity and eliminate funding and market stress, was for the Fed to effectively become banker to the entire world in the form of unlimited, 24/7 swap lines with every central bank, not just the current G7, to wit:

The Fed needs to broaden access to the swap lines to other jurisdictions as dollar funding needs are large in Scandinavia, Southeast Asia, Australia and South America, not just in the G-7.

bank of England Joins Panic Parade With Emergency Rate Cut To 0.1%, Boosts QE By £200B

and the hits just keep coming….

If traders are looking for central bankers to calm nerves they will have to wait, because in the past two days not an hour seems to pass without some central bank freaking out and announcing an emergency easing measure, many of which pulled right out of the global financial crisis playbook. And sure enough, moments ago the bank of England - in its second emergency move of the Global Covid Crisis - joined the overnight parade of similarly panicking RBA, ECB, BOJ and Fed, when it announced that as part of its covid-19 response it would cut rates to 0.1% from 0.25% in a unanimous emergency move, and boost QE, increasing its holdings of UK government bonds and sterling non-financial investment-grade corporate bonds by £200 billion to a total of £645 billion.

As FX strategist Viraj Patel notes, the "BoE previously saw QE as a credit-easing measure too at times of market stress. So makes sense. BoE have now laid their cards on the table. Not a lot left in the monetary tank"

-Go big or go home from bank of England. 15bps cut & £200bn QE (mainly govt bonds). Big purchases. BoE previously saw QE as a credit-easing measure too at times of market stress. So makes sense. BoE have now laid their cards on the table. Not a lot left in the monetary tank $GBP pic.twitter.com/Bs0ibnsnlr
- Viraj Patel (@VPatelFX) March 19, 2020

Perhaps in this context, it is not that strange that this announcement had virtually no effect on either the GBP, which remains depressed after its fastest drop in history, or on asset prices.

The full release is below:
Monetary Policy Summary for the special Monetary Policy Committee meeting on 19 March 2020

The spread of Covid-19 and the measures being taken to contain the virus will result in an economic shock that could be sharp and large, but should be temporary. The role of the bank of England is to help to meet the needs of UK businesses and households in dealing with the associated economic disruption.

On 11 March, the bank of England's three policy committees announced a package of measures to support UK businesses and households through this period. In his Budget on the same day, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced a number of fiscal measures with the same aim. On 17 March, this combined package of measures was complemented by the announcement by HM Treasury of the Covid-19 Corporate Financing Facility (CCFF), for which the bank will act as HM Treasury's agent. By purchasing commercial paper, the CCFF will provide funding to non-financial businesses making a material contribution to the UK economy to support them in paying salaries, rents and suppliers while experiencing the likely disruption to cashflows associated with Covid-19.

In light of actions to tackle the spread of the virus, and evidence relating to the global and domestic economy and financial markets, the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) held an additional special meeting on 19 March. Over recent days, and in common with a number of other advanced economy bond markets, conditions in the UK gilt market have deteriorated as investors have sought shorter-dated instruments that are closer substitutes for highly liquid central bank reserves. As a consequence, UK and global financial conditions have tightened.

At its special meeting on 19 March, the MPC judged that a further package of measures was warranted to meet its statutory objectives. It therefore voted unanimously to increase the bank of England's holdings of UK government bonds and sterling non-financial investment-grade corporate bonds by Stg 200 billion to a total of Stg 645 billion, financed by the issuance of central bank reserves, and to reduce bank Rate by 15 basis points to 0.1%. The Committee also voted unanimously that the bank of England should enlarge the TFSME scheme, financed by the issuance of central bank reserves.

The majority of additional asset purchases will comprise UK government bonds. The purchases announced today will be completed as soon as is operationally possible, consistent with improved market functioning. The bank will issue further guidance to the market in due course.

We wonder which central bank will panic next, and if the market will actually notice this time.

Federal Reserve announces the establishment of temporary U.S. dollar liquidity arrangements with other central banks

The Federal Reserve on Thursday announced the establishment of temporary U.S. dollar liquidity arrangements (swap lines) with the Reserve bank of Australia, the Banco central do Brasil, the Danmarks Nationalbank (Denmark), the bank of Korea, the Banco de Mexico, the Norges bank (Norway), the Reserve bank of New Zealand, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and the Sveriges Riksbank (Sweden). These facilities, like those already established between the Federal Reserve and other central banks, are designed to help lessen strains in global U.S. dollar funding markets, thereby mitigating the effects of these strains on the supply of credit to households and businesses, both domestically and abroad.

These new facilities will support the provision of U.S. dollar liquidity in amounts up to $60 billion each for the Reserve bank of Australia, the Banco central do Brasil, the bank of Korea, the Banco de Mexico, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and the Sveriges Riksbank and $30 billion each for the Danmarks Nationalbank, the Norges bank, and the Reserve bank of New Zealand. These U.S. dollar liquidity arrangements will be in place for at least six months.

The Federal Reserve also has standing U.S. dollar liquidity swap lines with the bank of Canada, the bank of England, the bank of Japan, the European central bank, and the Swiss National bank.

Fed Boosts Daily QE By 66% Overnight To Record $75 Billion In One Day

Overnight saw the addition of yet another four-letter-acronym bailout fund from The Fed but signals from the market suggest that they are once again losing control of the dollar-shortage-driven liquidity crisis as the FRA-OIS spread has started to rise sharply once again. So, what does The Fed decide to do?

Simple - increase its daily QE buying of bonds by 66%, buying a record $75 billion of US Treasury bonds each of today and tomorrow. The bank had initially planned to purchase $50b of Treasuries on those days.
The buying is spread across 7 operations as listed below:

-9:40 - 10:00 am: Treasury Coupons 7 to 20 year sector, for around $6 billion
-10:30 - 10:50 am: Treasury Coupons 4.5 to 7 year sector, for around $11 billion
-11:20 - 11:40 am: Treasury Coupons 2.25 to 4.5 year sector, for around $17 billion
-12:10 - 12:30 pm: Treasury Coupons 0 to 2.25 year sector, for around $25 billion
-1:00 - 1:20 pm: Treasury Coupons 20 to 30 year sector, for around $9 billion
-1:50 - 2:10 pm: TIPS 1 to 7.5 year sector (Thursday)/TIPS 7.5 to 30 year sector (Friday), for around $7 billion

Just for some context, that is more than one month of 'old QE' in one day!!

BoE's Bailey To Print Unlimited Money, Tells Short Sellers "Just Stop" Amid Covid-19 Chaos

BoE governor Andrew Bailey said on Wednesday that the central bank stands ready to pump unlimited amounts of money into the economy.

Speaking to journalists on a conference call, quoted by Financial Times, Bailey said the central bank is prepared to pump liquidity into markets via its new commercial paper facility. He said this would limit economic damage produced by the virus crisis.

He told members of the financial community that they must stop 'exploiting' vulnerable business by betting against them:

"Anybody who says, 'I can make a load of money by shorting' [aggressively betting on the value of specific companies continuing to fall] which might not be frankly in the interest of the economy, the interest of the people, just stop doing what you're doing."

Bailey made it clear that financial markets will remain open as a sign of confidence. He said firms who are thinking of reducing staff must reconsider because support from the central bank and government can lessen the shock.

He urged firms to "stop, look at what's available, come and talk to us [or] the government before you take that position," adding that support will be supplied to citizens as well.

The hardest-hit UK industries have so far been airliners, retailers, restaurants, movie theaters, and much of the services industry, as it has completely ground to a halt as the government enforces social distancing measures to flatten the curve to slowdown infections. As of 2018, the services sector accounted for at least 80% of the UK economy.

Baily said emergency loans have been available by the central bank to companies that have already fired employees. He told BBC News:

"I would emphasise the point that it's critical that we support the needs of the people in the country."

Baily took the reins from Mark Carney at midnight on Monday and has already faced an economic crisis on par to a decade ago as helicopter money is now needed to save the economy from crashing.

"This is a crisis we're all in. It's an emergency situation," Bailey said.

The BoE is expected to cut interest rates from .25% to .10% and resume quantitative easing when it meets next week. Bailey isn't a supporter of NIRP and has pushed measures to shield businesses and workers from virus impacts.

Dollar surges, stocks, oil fall as ECB fails to stop panic

The dollar surged, bonds plunged and global markets struggled to find their footing on Thursday as the European central bank's latest promise of stimulus provided only brief solace while the world struggles to contain the coronavirus pandemic. U.S. stock futures EScv1 fell 2%. The Australian dollar was crushed, falling 3.3% to a more than 17-year low, and Asian markets gave up initial gains made after the ECB had announced a bond-buying program. By midmorning, MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS had fallen 4% to an almost four-year low. Australia's benchmark erased an early 3% rise to trade 2% in the red. Korea's Kospi .KS11 fell 6% and the won hit a decade-low even as the central bank was buying dollars to prop up the currency.

Markets in Hong Kong and China fell-Cap#2 Selling extended across almost all asset classes. Benchmark 10-year sovereign bond yields in Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Korea and Singapore and Thailand surged. In currency markets, everything except the dollar and - thanks to the ECB, the euro - collapsed. Sterling GBP= fell 1% to $1.1495. The New Zealand dollar NZD=D3 fell 3% to $0.5540 and the Aussie AUD=D3 was pounded to $0.5592. The Reserve bank of Australia is due to make an out-of-cycle policy announcement at 0330 GMT at which it is expected to cut rates and introduce quantitative easing for the first time. U.S. 10-year Treasuries US10YT=RR, usually a haven in times of turmoil, were steady but have suffered their sharpest two-day selloff in nearly 20 years.

BOJ Admits It Has Lost 3 Trillion Yen On Its Equity Purchases Despite Literally Printing Money Out Of Thin Air

A week after we reported that the BOJ had bought a record amount of ETFs in a desperate attempt to stabilize its illiquid stock market, where the central bank now owns over 73% of all ETFs, Kuroda bought a whopping 121.6BN yen of ETFs on Tuesday, the most on record, and just one day after the BOJ doubled the upper limit of ETFs it can purchase to 12 trillion yen, without however answering where it will get all those ETFs from. The purchases in its core ETF program jumped by 20% to 120.4BN yen from the previous record of 100.2BN yen; while ETFs bought in the BOJ's "physical and human capital" program - whereby the BOJ directly admits it is rewarding companies for pursuing policies that it finds appealing such as higher jobs - remain at 1.2b yen. Finally, the BOJ's J-REIT purchases rose to 1.5BN yen from 1.2BN yen.

Lagarde Fires Bazooka #2: ECB Announces ?750BN Pandemic Purchase Program

Earlier this afternoon we said that because "the Fed's Bazooka #1 was an epic dud. Here comes Bazooka #2", and this time it is the ECB that will try to fire.

Sure enough, almost three hours later, and just before 1am CET, the ECB announced plans to buy a whopping ?750bn in more bonds in the delightfully named Pandemic Emergency Purchase Program (because we clearly needed another alphabet bailout soup) after holding an emergency call of its rate-setting committee on Wednesday evening in response to the Global Covid Crisis and resulting financial market turmoil.

The central bank said the additional asset purchases - as a reminder last week the ECB expanded its baseline QE - would be carried out by the end of this year, cover both sovereign bonds and corporate debt, and would last until the coronavirus crisis is over.

Just like the Fed, the ECB also expanded the range of eligible assets to non-financial commercial paper and to ease the collateral standards to allow banks to raise money against more of their assets, including corporate finance claims. For those wondering if the ECB would limit itself to A1 and higher CP, like the Fed, the answer is clearly no as per the following: "all commercial papers of sufficient credit quality eligible for purchase under CSPP." What is sufficient? Anything that the ECB says.

It was a bit surprising that the ECB has yet to announce it is buying equities, but we expect that will come in a few days when the STOXX 600 crashes another 20%.

The Governing Council of the ECB is committed to playing its role in supporting all citizens of the euro area through this extremely challenging time. To that end, the ECB will ensure that all sectors of the economy can benefit from supportive financing conditions that enable them to absorb this shock. This applies equally to families, firms, banks and governments.

Then, the central bank which will be directly monetizing even more of Europe's deficit and engaging in state monetary financing which is expressly forbidden by the EU, decided to make a mockery of its permissions, and said that "the Governing Council will do everything necessary within its mandate", which apparently is the new code word for "whatever it takes." This includes increasing "the size of its asset purchase programmes and adjust their composition, by as much as necessary and for as long as needed. It will explore all options and all contingencies to support the economy through this shock."

In recent days, economists have been calling for the ECB to increase its bond-buying programme in particular since the borrowing costs of southern European countries, such as Italy and Greece, rose sharply to levels not seen for more than a year, because somehow the ECB, which is now the world's largest hedge fund and owns billions of Italian and Greek debt, doesn't own enough Italian and Greek debt.

Translation: do the same idiotic thing over and over and hope that this time - just because it is super, turbo huge - it will work.

And just to let the market know it means business, the ECB left off with the following implicit threat to shorts:

To the extent that some self-imposed limits might hamper action that the ECB is required to take in order to fulfil its mandate, the Governing Council will consider revising them to the extent necessary to make its action proportionate to the risks that we face. The ECB will not tolerate any risks to the smooth transmission of its monetary policy in all jurisdictions of the euro area.

In other words, taking a page out of the Elon Musk "burn the shorts"playbook, just because we are not allowed to do something, doesn't mean the ECB won't do it.

Peter Schiff: These Markets Are Rigged

US stock markets enjoyed another Tuesday rebound with the announcement of even more monetary stimulus from the Fed and the hope of government fiscal stimulus and bailouts (only to tumble back limit-down today). In his podcast, Peter Schiff said this should make it crystal clear that the government and central bank are rigging the markets.

There is talk of "helicopter" cash and tax breaks, along with bailouts for the airline industry and small businesses. The proposed stimulus package reportedly totals over $1.2 trillion.

Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve announced additional monetary stimulus measures.

The Fed said it will begin to hold two daily repo operations instead of one. The New York Fed began running repo operations to stabilize overnight lending markets back in September, long before the coronavirus outbreak.

The central bank has also relaunched the so-called Commercial Paper Funding Facility (CPFF), a 2008 financial crisis program that allows companies to take out unsecured, short-term loans. In practice, the Federal Reserve will buy commercial paper directly from companies. The loans will have to be paid back within a year. The US Treasury will provide $10 billion of credit protection to the central bank's commercial paper operation.

To go along with the CPFF, the Fed announced a Primary Dealer Credit Facility offering overnight and term funding with maturities up to 90 days.

In simplest terms, it will allow over-leveraged companies to go into even deeper debt and those loans will be backed by the federal government. Peter called it a bank bailout 2.0.

Loaning money to banks and accepting corporate and muni bonds, plus equities as collateral, so the banks don't have to sell those assets at huge losses, is a bailout. In 2008, I warned the next bank bailout would be even more expensive."

In his podcast on Tuesday, Peter said he thinks the Fed has already committed to spending more money than it did in the entirety of the 2008 financial crisis.

Latin American Currencies Crushed as Oil Prices Plunge

WTI now below $23/pbl-cap#2
Plummeting oil prices and the rapidly spreading coronavirus outbreak hammered Latin American currencies on Wednesday.

Mexico's peso, the region's most-traded currency, led declines, slumping 4.2% to a record against the dollar as of 10:45 a.m. New York time. The Brazilian real followed with a 2.4% drop, while Chile's peso fell 1.5%.

Only the Colombian peso eked out a gain, edging higher after a five-day, 9.5% freefall. Mexico's peso is among the most exposed as investors typically use the currency – which trades 24 hours a day – as a proxy for broader risk sentiment. Add to that the currency's reliance on high Mexican rates amid increasing pressure on the country's central bank to deliver a cut and investors have every reason to feel skittish. A rate cut is also expected in Brazil later today, which should dampen the attractiveness of the currency even more.

The peso and real are the worst performers among Latin American peers since the outbreak of the virus in mid-January, with the former down 21.7% and the latter down 18.2%. A non-stop rout in commodities, emerging-market stocks and finally developed-nation equities have all contributed to the sell-off, even as central banks in both nations rolled out currency intervention programs.

The spread of the coronavirus has roiled global markets and added to investor fears of a world-wide growth slowdown. Commodity exporters like Chile have also been hard-hit amid concern that demand will drop.

Poland Pledges Stimulus Worth 9% GDP to Combat Virus Fallout

Poland announced a rescue package designed to shield the economy from the impact of the coronavirus that will cost around 212 billion zloty ($52 billion), or roughly 9% of gross domestic product.

The plan to support entrepreneurs and protect the labor market envisages holidays in debt repayments and social contributions, loan guarantees as well as payments of salaries to those unable to work, President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said at a joint conference in Warsaw on Wednesday.

"We want to get through the next few, critical months intact," Morawiecki said. "This is a shield that is to give hope that things will get better soon."

The stimulus package, which will be fast-tracked through parliament, follows this week's emergency interest-rate cut and includes a 70 billion zloty liquidity injection from the central bank. Poland's battered stocks climbed and the zloty currency weakened 0.4% against the euro following the announcement.

In a bid to slow the spread of the virus, the government has shut borders and shopping centers, bars and restaurants. The restrictions may push Poland into its deepest recession since the early 1990s, according to Morgan Stanley.

Key measures of the plan include:

-Holidays for social security contribution payments
-Guarantees worth up to 80% of loan value for companies
-Gas, power bill payment holidays for some clients
-Creating a 30 billion zloty infrastructure investment fund
-State payments, covering 40% of salaries, for companies that will be impacted by drops in sales, losses
-Temporary suspension of Sunday trade ban
-State agency will seek to take over payments of leasing from transport companies

Fed officials flag possible further steps in Fed crisis response

Federal Reserve officials are deliberating over next steps in their response to the fallout from the coronavirus epidemic, with some urging a broad debate about how the central bank might help small and medium-sized businesses, policymakers said on Tuesday. "At this stage everything is on the table. … Work continues," Atlanta Federal Reserve bank President Raphael Bostic said in a phone interview with journalists, just hours after the Fed restarted a key lending program to ensure larger companies can get the short-term loans they often use to pay wages and buy supplies.

A possible next step, Bostic said, could be the resumption of other programs rolled out during the 2007 to 2009 financial crisis, such as the Term Auction Facility that broadened the ability of banks to borrow from the Fed.

Bostic said he hoped for a broader discussion about how the federal government "writ large" might help small businesses, perhaps with a program, likely outside the Fed, to offer assurances or guarantees for rent and lease payments so that a temporary cash crunch does not lead to a business getting evicted.

"These challenges are going to be acute and are going to come fast," for restaurants, bars and other small firms that may be closed by government edict as a health measure or see their business collapse as their patrons practice "social distancing," Bostic said. "This is something we need to think about and be creative."

Discussions in Washington continued throughout the government on Tuesday, including a call by House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi with Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Pelosi, a Democrat, asked the central bank to also think how it might help local governments deal with the economic shock that is developing.

The Fed rolled out an extensive set of measures in recent days designed to lessen the economic damage from the epidemic, which Bostic said was meant to show that "maximum" stimulus will be provided until the crisis passes.

Fed officials on Tuesday began discussing their actions in more detail, urging banks to tap Fed facilities if needed and highlighting how uncertain the outlook remains.

"Come and get what you need to keep the funds flowing," Philadelphia Federal Reserve President Patrick Harker said in an interview.

Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari said on CNN International that his base case for the U.S. economy is a mild recession, but "many businesses are going to be under tremendous strain, probably laying off many of their workers, and so this is quickly going to become an economic crisis."

Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF)

Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, or TALF, was a program created by the U.S. Federal Reserve in November, 2008 to boost consumer spending in order to help jump-start the economy. This was accomplished through the issuance of asset-backed securities. The collateral for these securities was made up of auto loans, student loans, credit card loans, equipment loans, floor plan loans, insurance premium finance loans, loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration, residential mortgage servicing advances, or commercial mortgage loans. Backing for these loans came from funds provided by the Federal Reserve bank of New York.

ECB Provides banks With $120 Billion to Prevent Squeeze

banks took 109.1 billion euros ($120 billion) from the European central bank in the first installment of interim financing designed to prevent money markets from seizing up during the coronavirus pandemic.

The cash is part of a package of measures the ECB unveiled last week that also included an increase in bond-buying and more favorable terms for its targeted long-term lending program from June.

Until those become available, the central bank is offering weekly operations as a stopgap measure. The interest rate is fixed at the average deposit rate – currently minus 0.5% – over the life of the loan. Some 110 banks took part in this week's 98-day offering. With governments shutting schools and borders across the euro area to contain the spread of the deadly virus, the 19-nation economy is all but certain to fall into recession. The ECB has said that while there were no material signs of liquidity shortages in the banking system, the new operations will "provide an effective backstop if necessary."

central banking is Socialism

Last week, the Federal Reserve responded to Wall Street's coronavirus panic with an "emergency" interest rate cut. This emergency cut failed to revive the stock market, leading to predictions that the Fed will again cut rates later this month.

More rate cuts would drive interest rates to near, or even below, zero. Lowering interest rates punishes people for saving, thus encouraging consumers and businesses to spend every penny they make. This may give the economy a short-term boost. But, it inhibits long-term economic growth by depleting the savings necessary for investments in businesses and jobs. The result of this policy will be more pressure on the Fed to indefinitely maintain low interest rates and on the Congress and president to create another explosion of government "stimulus" spending.

Boston Federal Reserve President Eric Rosengren has suggested that Congress allow the Federal Reserve to add assets of private companies to the Fed's already large balance sheet. Allowing the central bank to buy assets of, and thus assume a partial ownership interest in, private companies would give the Federal Reserve even greater influence over the economy. It could also allow the Fed to advance a political agenda by, for example, favoring investment in "green energy" companies over other companies or refusing to purchase assets of retailers who sell firearms or tobacco products.

Mr. Rosengren's proposal to allow the central bank to "invest," in private companies seems like something one would hear from democratic socialists like Senator Bernie Sanders. This is not surprising since the entire Federal Reserve system is a textbook example of socialism.

The essence of socialist economics is government allocation of resources either by seizing direct control of the "means of production" or by setting prices business can charge. Federal Reserve manipulation of interest rates is an attempt to set the price of money. Federal Reserve attempts to set interest rates distort the signals sent by the rates to investors and business. This results in a Fed-created boom, which is inevitably followed by a Fed-created bust.

Economic elites benefit when the Federal Reserve pumps new money into the economy because they have access to the money created before there are widespread price increases. Artificially low interest rates also facilitate the growth of the welfare-warfare state.

The Federal Reserve's inflationary policies harm the average American by eroding the dollar's purchasing power. This forces consumers to rely on credit cards and other forms of debt to maintain their standard of living. Many Americans are unable to afford their own homes because they are saddled with student loan debt that can even exceed their income.

Since the bailouts of 2008, there has been a growing understanding that the current system is rigged in favor of the elites and against the average American. Unfortunately, popular confusion of our system of Keynesian neoliberalism with a free-market economy, combined with a widespread entitlement mentality, has led many Americans to support increasing government control of our economy.

The key to beating back the rising support for socialism on both the left and right is helping more people understand that big government and central banking are the cause of their problems and that free markets in all areas - and especially in money - is the solution. It is important that the liberty movement put pressure on Congress to cut spending and rein in or, better yet, end the Fed.

Greece & EUROLEAKS - A Brief Summary:
In 2015, Varoufakis was the chief negotiator for then-ruling Syriza party, dealing with the Eurogroup and those behind it - the so-called 'troika.' It comprises the three main lenders of the eurozone nations - the European Commission, the European central bank and the International Monetary Fund.

While the Eurogroup is de-jure an informal group, it is actually a powerful decision-making institute that lacks accountability and transparency - and does not keep any records. The main goal in releasing the recordings is to shed light on its secretive activities, Varoufakis said in a video announcing the Euroleaks. "The Eurogroup's three does not keep minutes, the European Union Council is still shrouded in total opacity. It's about time we change that."

The lenders took a tough, 'take it or leave it' stance on Greece, effectively presenting it with an ultimatum. At the same time, they blamed Greek negotiators for stalled talks - and no records were available to prove them wrong.

"You will hear the [then-]president of the Eurogroup [Jeroen Dijsselbloem] and other ministers warn me that if I dare table written proposals within the Eurogroup meetings, that would be the end of the negotiations. At the very same time they were leaking to the press that I was arriving at Eurogroup meetings without any proposals."

Apart from bringing into the limelight the "intransparent action by an unelected group of politicians who influence all our lives," the leaks also serve another purpose. The putting in the public domain of the secret recordings is aimed at fighting attempts by the incumbent Greek government to "weaponize fake news," produced by the Eurogroup back in 2015 to justify new austerity measures for the country, Varoufakis said.

Comment: Varoufakis was told "the Eurogroup does not exist in law", therefore he could have no objections to whatever its dominant members decreed. Of course they do not want their dealings on record. 'We rule, you comply. We pillage, you submit.'

Stock markets and oil prices continued to nose-dive on Monday after the second emergency cut in U.S. interest rates in as many weeks - effectively to zero - and supportive measures from all corners failed to quell coronavirus fears. central banks across Asia and Europe also cut borrowing costs and pumped funds into the system in a bid to cushion the economic impact as the breakneck spread of the virus all but shut down more countries. But they had limited success in calming panicky investors. Hong Kong, New Zealand and Korea cut rates but China did not…opting to "print" instead. The Fed's emergency 100 basis point rate cut on Sunday was followed on Monday by further policy easing from the bank of Japan in the form of a pledge to ramp up purchases of exchange-traded funds and other risky assets.

Summary of BoJ response: The central bank will double its upper limit of annual purchases of exchange traded funds to 12 trillion yen ($112.46 billion) and of real-estate investment trusts to 180 billion yen per year. It will also expand its upper limit of its corporate bond balance to 4.2 trillion yen and its commercial paper balance to 3.2 trillion yen, each up 1 trillion yen. In addition, it will start a lending program for commercial banks, providing them with one-year loans in exchange for corporate collateral worth 8 trillion yen. The Nikkei Stock Average spiked upward for a short period of time after the announcement before dropping to close 2.46% lower than it did on Friday

New Zealand's central bank shocked by cutting rates 75 basis points to 0.25%, while the Reserve bank of Australia (RBA) pumped more money into its financial system. South Korea and Kuwait both cut rates while Russia and Germany were throwing together multi-billion dollar anti-crisis funds.

I think that these central bank actions and those of the BIS in Switzerland, are what we should be watching, because there seems to be a global redistribution of wealth and power under way.

I won't say that it is the ONLY reason for the COVID crisis, but I think that it is a big part of it. Remember that these central banks are supposed to be independent and only act based on PUBLIC info that all investors have access to. But they have been privately colluding and now their only comms are personal couriers or face to face meetings. The border controls either block these, or make them visible to intelligence agencies who can therefore monitor those conversations. In a way, the USA is clawing back money that was stolen.

And at the same time many other criminals are exposed, especially the muscle which has to travel physically in order to put pressure on people, or to kill people. MS13 still sends muscle to the USA, for instance.

And at the same time, there a bunch of fake activities happening to keep the Cabal leaders on edge and guessing at what is around the corner. They are feeling the pain in more ways than one.

China Adds Cash to banking System, Keeps Interest Rate Unchanged

China's central bank added to its growing list of measures aimed at countering the economic fallout from the spreading virus, injecting $14.3 billion into the financial system. The People's bank of China offered 100 billion yuan via the one-year medium-term lending facility, keeping the rate unchanged at 3.15%. There were no loans coming due Monday. The central bank refrained from injecting liquidity with short-term reverse repurchase agreements for a 20th straight day. The move follows the PBOC's widely-expected announcement late Friday that it will trim the amount of cash some lenders must hold in reserve. The cut, which is also effective from Monday, will free up about 550 billion yuan of liquidity in the financial system.

China's 10-year government bond futures erased an earlier gain of as much as 0.32% to trade little changed after the PBOC move. The yield on sovereign notes due in a decade dropped 2 basis points to 2.67%, paring a decline of as much as 4 basis points.

Policymakers around the world are taking steps to shore up confidence in financial markets, which are undergoing a sell-off in many ways unseen seen since the global financial crisis in 2008. In the U.S., the Federal Reserve slashed its main rate to zero on Sunday, matching a record low it was last at in 2015. central banks in Asia and Europe have also stepped up measures in a bid to keep markets functioning and economies growing.

BOJ Announces It Will Bring Thursday's Policy Meeting To Noon Monday: Nikkei Jumps, Yen Drops

With the Fed telegraphing an all out capital markets panic as the Fed could not wait a mere three days until the scheduled FOMC meeting to rush out the biggest monetary bazooka in history which proved to not be enough, the rest of the developed world's central banks had no choice but to fall in line - after all if, one panics, all must panic. And sure enough, early on Sunday, the bank of Japan announced it will hold an emergency meeting at noon local time, raising investor sentiment about global policy coordination amid the spread of the new coronavirus, and helping spike the Nikkei 225 up 1.6% on Monday morning, although the index has since given up much of the gains.

The bank of Japan announced on Monday morning that like the Fed, it too will move its policy meeting up to Monday afternoon rather than on Thursday as initially planned, as part of concerted efforts worldwide to shore up the global economy.

Tokyo's Nikkei Stock Average jumped nearly 300 points to 17,726, its first rise in four days after a turbulent week that sent global stock markets crashing over fears of a global economic slowdown, as the coronavirus pandemic hits global supply chains while cases continue to surge in Europe and the U.S. However it then quickly pared all gains before dipping modestly in the green.

After the BOJ's announcement, the yen declined 0.92 yen to 106.92 after surging as highas 105.80 per U.S. dollar as investors pinned hopes on monetary easing, driving demand for the dollar. However, in light of the $12 trillion dollar global margin call, we expect to see the yen, a global risk-off proxy, surge much, much higher before the day is done.

While it is unclear just what additional credible steps the BOJ can offer, Takahide Kiuchi, a former BOJ policy board member writes that Kuroda will likely raise its annual purchase of ETFs funds to 9 trln yen from the current 6 trln yen, which however means that the central bank will simply end up nationalizing the market much faster than previously scheduled. The central bank could also theoretically lower its short-term interest rate target to minus 0.2% from minus 0.1% according to Kiuchi, now executive economist at Nomura Research Institute, although with Japan's banks already screaming at the torture of years of NIRP, all this action will do is bring forward the demise of Japan's banking sector.

Which is precisely why Japan's Kuroda is now completely trapped.

Australia's central bank dumps emergency $6 billion into banking system as coronavirus hits financial markets

The Reserve bank has pumped extra liquidity into the banking system, part of a package of measures aimed at ensuring business and households have access to credit as the coronavirus causes chaos in global financial markets.
The RBA used its daily money market operation to add $5.9 billion to the system through regular repurchase agreements, well above its original intention of $2.5 billion.
That followed an injection of $8.8 billion on Friday, which had left commercial banks with a hefty $10.7 billion of surplus cash held at the RBA.

Monday's operations ranged from four days to 93 days, with $4.6 billion going at the longest maturity.
Earlier, the RBA said it will be conducting one-month and three-month repurchase (repo) operations until further notice.
It will also conduct repo operations of six-months maturity or longer at least weekly, as long as market conditions warrant, as part of a package of liquidity measures from Australia's Council of Financial Regulators (CFR).

The CFR said financial regulators and the government were working closely together to help ensure financial markets continue to operate effectively and that credit is available to households and businesses.
The steps followed a move by major central banks to offer global markets cheap US dollar funding, while the US Federal Reserve cut its interest rates by 100 basis points to between 0 and 0.25 per cent in another emergency move on Sunday.

US Federal Reserve Cuts Interest Rate to Zero As Part of Wide-Ranging Emergency Economic Aid

The Federal Reserve's benchmark US interest rate was slashed on Sunday to a range of 0 to 0.25 percent, down from a range of 1 to 1.25 percent. The move - that has been much-anticipated by US President Donald Trump - is a bid to tackle the ongoing economic fallout caused by the spread of the Chinese-spawned coronavirus.

The central bank also announced that it would re-start its "quantitative easing" - a step that the American economy took earlier during 2008's Great Recession in a bid to get money flowing in markets.

"Consistent with its statutory mandate, the [Federal Open Market] Committee seeks to foster maximum employment and price stability. The effects of the coronavirus will weigh on economic activity in the near term and pose risks to the economic outlook. In light of these developments, the Committee decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate to 0 to 1/4 percent", The US Federal Reserve System said in a statement on Sunday, adding that it was "encouraging banks to use their capital and liquidity buffers as they lend to households and businesses who are affected by the coronavirus".

Fed Panics: Powell Cuts Rates To Zero, Announces $700BN QE5, Unveils Enhanced Global Swap Lines

With Wall Street desperate for the Fed to announce emergency measures on Sunday (after disappointing last week), and ideally before the futures open, Jerome Powell did not disappoint and moments ago the Fed announced a barrage of emergency measures which included:

Welcome back ZIRP: Fed cuts rates by 100bps to 0-25bps from 1.00 -1.25bps. This is in addition to the 50bps rate cut on March 3, which means that in just under two weeks the Fed has cut rates by 150bps to zero.
Fed officially launches QE5 (no more "Non-QE" bullshit), consisting of "at least" $500BN in Treasury purchases and $200 billion in MBS.
Boosting intraday liquidity: The Fed announces Measures related to the discount window, intraday credit, bank capital and liquidity buffers, reserve requirements, and-in coordination with other central banks-the U.S. dollar liquidity swap line arrangements
Reserve requirements cut to zero: The Fed cuts reserve requirement ratios to zero percent effective on March 26.
Coordinated swap lines: The bank of Canada, the bank of England, the bank of Japan, the European central bank, the Federal Reserve, and the Swiss National bank announced a coordinated action to enhance the provision of liquidity via the standing U.S. dollar liquidity swap line arrangements. The pricing on the dollar liquidity swap arrangements is cut by 25 basis points, so the new rate will be the US dollar overnight index swap (OIS) rate plus 25 basis points.

Amusingly, the Fed announces that the emergency action wasn't unilateral, with Loretta J. Mester voting against the action, as she was "fully supportive of all of the actions taken to promote the smooth functioning of markets and the flow of credit to households and businesses but preferred to reduce the target range for the federal funds rate to 1/2 to 3/4 percent at this meeting."

The full statement is below (link):

The coronavirus outbreak has harmed communities and disrupted economic activity in many countries, including the United States. Global financial conditions have also been significantly affected. Available economic data show that the U.S. economy came into this challenging period on a strong footing. Information received since the Federal Open Market Committee met in January indicates that the labor market remained strong through February and economic activity rose at a moderate rate. Job gains have been solid, on average, in recent months, and the unemployment rate has remained low. Although household spending rose at a moderate pace, business fixed investment and exports remained weak. More recently, the energy sector has come under stress. On a 12?month basis, overall inflation and inflation for items other than food and energy are running below 2 percent. Market-based measures of inflation compensation have declined; survey-based measures of longer-term inflation expectations are little changed.

Poster of the PB notable here.

The picture is from an event in 1935, so it is after the Concordat.

However, what you posted is very interesting, I too am looking on whether there is a deep connection to be found there.

The banking scam was started (in recent history, I do not know about earlier history) a few centuries ago in England.

It definitely progressively expanded over time after that. The explosion of banks you describe is one step. The creation of the central bank of central banks, the BIS, in Bale (nice name) Switzerland, is another major one (all the other big institutions are related to that ones - world bank, IMF, etc.).

Regarding Royalty and the French revolution, i would be weary of drawing this conclusion. The revolution was not spontaneous, it was the fact of people in secret societies, connected to the actual Bavarian Illuminati, which are themselves connected to the Jesuits, and all that came before. This is actually well documented in the book "Fire in the Mind of Men", an amazing book by Billington. The leading secret society during the revolution was led by Bonneville. Some of his (secret at the time) writings for his society, and for the Orient of London (masonic society) are publicly available now.

What I wonder is, did the top people in the Cabal decide that ruling by kingdoms was not satisfying providing them the results they wanted, and so they completely changed the system in order to have "rulers" (puppets) that cannot be linked back to them in an obvious fashion?

I do not have time to dig right now, but I will definitely look into this. Thanks for sharing.

UAE, Saudi central banks roll out $40 billion stimulus for virus-hit economies

March 15, 2020 at 1:04 pm

The central banks of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia, the two largest Arab economies, on Saturday announced stimulus plans worth a combined $40 billion to ease the impact of the coronavirus outbreak in their respective countries, Reuters reports.

The UAE regulator plans to support banks and businesses in the country, where the outbreak is affecting major economic sectors such as tourism and transport, with a 100 billion dirham ($27 billion) economic plan, it said on Saturday.

In a separate statement, the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority said it had prepared a 50 billion riyal ($13.32 billion) package to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) cope with the economic impacts of coronavirus.

The disease has so far infected 85 people in the UAE and 105 in Saudi Arabia.

The Saudi funding aims to grant SMEs six-month deferrals on bank payments, concessional financing and exemptions from the costs of a loan guarantee programme, SAMA said.

Concerts, sporting events and industry conferences have been cancelled or postponed in the past few weeks in the UAE to contain the spreading of the new coronavirus.

In Dubai, the Middle East's trade, finance, tourism and transportation hub, some businesses have started to feel the pain from the global travel slowdown caused by the outbreak.

Saudi Arabia, which has already suspended the Umrah pilgrimage and locked down its eastern Qatif region where many infections are located, plans to halt all international flights for two weeks from Sunday.

The UAE central bank said it will provide 50 billion dirhams through collateralised loans at zero cost to all banks operating in the UAE while an additional 50 billion dirhams will be freed up from lenders' capital buffers.

"The CBUAE is allowing banks to free-up their regulatory capital buffers to boost lending capacity and support the UAE economy," it said in a statement.

It said the scheme offers banks relief for up to six months from the payments of principal and interest on outstanding loans for affected private sector companies and retail customers.

The Federal Reserve will return to its origin and it will do what it was originally designed to do. They will lend now on commercial paper rather than just government. As everyone knows, this has been my strongest recommendation and criticism of Quantitative Easing. The Fed was originally designed to create Elastic Money buying corporate paper to prevent a recession and job losses. World War I saw government interfere and directed the Fed should be buying government debt.

Injecting cash into the banks FAILED because the banks lacked the confidence to lend money. They turned and placed money at the Fed in Excess Reserves. Not that that bottomed in September 2019 with the Repo Crisis and is back on the rise again as banks are not lending.

Lowering rates FAILED because people will not borrow if they lack confidence in the future, Hence, Europe and Japan have destroyed their government bond markets and now they talk about nationalizing companies and eliminating paper money while seizing cryptocurrencies. They have no monetary power left in the central bank. All they can do now is turn draconian and seal the fate of their economic future.

The Fed will take a different path and lend directly to corporations because the bankers will hoard the cash and NEVER help the economy. This has been my #1 recommendation to save the economy and the central bank.

This is the REAL Crisis - not the coronavirus which has been at best the catalyst to set everything in motion for the monetary crisis and the Mother of All Financial Crises.

Something needs to be done to prevent people from accumulating vast fortunes over generations.
If you work hard and earn the money, then yes, you should be able to enjoy the fruits of your work

But your kids did nothing for it and have a high probability of becoming spoiled brats, worthless drug addicts and a pox on society.
So they should not get your fortune after you die.

Paying everyone a survival income is a good way to encourage entrepreneurial behavior. When people know that there is no support from their neighbors unless they work, many will take any job they can get and their creative potential is suppressed and is lost. This is a waste to society as a whole. Better to give everyone survival money so they can work on an entrepreneurial plan without fear for their life.

So, inheritance money should flow back into the system, just like the interest earned by the central bank should flow back into the system. Paying everyone a survival income is a way to do this. In other words, don't just restructure the Fed, but also the corrupt system that feeds the Cabal. Divert that wealth back to the people.

China Set for Unprecedented Contraction in Early-Year Data

Factory output, retail sales, investment all seen contracting. Economy expected to grow at slowest pace since early 90s in 1Q. Data on China's industrial output, investment and retail sales due Monday are forecast to show an across-the-board contraction for the first time on record, evidence of the extent to which the coronavirus has ravaged the economy. The data is released on a combined basis to account for the normal seasonal swings around the Lunar New Year holiday.

The epidemic and attempts to slow its spread suddenly paralyzed China's economy during that break, forcing consumers to cut spending and stay home, factories to extend their production halt, and trapping millions of people far from where they work. That crippled activity across the economy, with car and home sales slumping, and trade and travel interrupted.

"Most likely Jan.-Feb. is the lowest point for this year and the growth momentum is clearly improving in March," but the current consensus of 4% GDP growth in the first quarter will be under pressure after the data, Macquarie Group Ltd Chief China Economist Larry Hu said Friday. "The bad news is the recovery has been slower than expected, while the good news is that it's still recovering." The central bank acted on Friday to soften the blow and help the economy, providing banks more money to lend by cutting the amount of cash they must place in reserve at the People's bank of China. That cut takes effect on Monday, just as markets see the data for the first two months of the year.

'Euroleaks': Former Greek finance minister LEAKS recordings of secretive Eurogroup talks in fight for 'democratization of the EU'

The former finance minister of Greece, Yanis Varoufakis, has released a cache of audio files, secretly recorded in 2015 during the bailout talks with the Eurogroup - a powerful group of eurozone's finance chiefs.

The recordings and their transcripts were released by Varoufakis on the website of his 'pan-European' DiEM25 party on Saturday. The files -dubbed 'Euroleaks'- were recorded between February and July 2015, when cash-strapped Athens was entangled in painful talks with its creditors.

In 2015, Varoufakis was the chief negotiator for then-ruling Syriza party, dealing with the Eurogroup and those behind it - the so-called 'troika.' It comprises the three main lenders of the eurozone nations - the European Commission, the European central bank and the International Monetary Fund.

While the Eurogroup is de-jure an informal group, it is actually a powerful decision-making institute that lacks accountability and transparency - and does not keep any records. The main goal in releasing the recordings is to shed light on its secretive activities, Varoufakis said in a video announcing the Euroleaks.

The Eurogroup's three does not keep minutes, the European Union Council is still shrouded in total opacity. It's about time we change that.

The lenders took a tough, 'take it or leave it' stance on Greece, effectively presenting it with an ultimatum. At the same time, they blamed Greek negotiators for stalled talks - and no records were available to prove them wrong.

"You will hear the [then-]president of the Eurogroup [Jeroen Dijsselbloem] and other ministers warn me that if I dare table written proposals within the Eurogroup meetings, that would be the end of the negotiations," Varoufakis said. "At the very same time they were leaking to the press that I was arriving at Eurogroup meetings without any proposals."

Apart from bringing into the limelight the "intransparent action by an unelected group of politicians who influence all our lives," the leaks also serve another purpose. The putting in the public domain of the secret recordings is aimed at fighting attempts by the incumbent Greek government to "weaponize fake news," produced by the Eurogroup back in 2015 to justify new austerity measures for the country, Varoufakis said.

banks Not Coming Close To Testing Upside Of Fed's New Mega Repos

Initial demand far less than the amounts available totaling $1.5 trillion

The first three of the Federal Reserve bank of New York's mega repo operations have drawn far lighter demand than what the central bank is willing to provide.
On Thursday, the central bank shocked observers by announcing it would offer, in addition to its existing slate of loans to major banks, three repurchase agreements, or repos, that would provide eligible banks up to $500 billion per operation over an extended time horizon. The Fed said then it acted to "address highly unusual disruptions in Treasury financing markets associated with the coronavirus outbreak."
While the overall pool of Fed liquidity has surged, eligible banks, called primary dealers, have thus far have not come close to tapping all the money the central bank can provide via the new slate of interventions.
On Thursday, the Fed's first mega repo, which was one of four repo interventions that day, saw demand of $78.4 billion versus the half trillion dollar limit. On Friday, two of the repos, which collectively would have offered banks $1 trillion, saw bank demand of $17 billion in one operation, and $24.1 billion in the other. Meanwhile, the amount of money sought by dealers for the weekend was also well short of the Fed's $175 billion cap, at $45.15 billion.
Collectively, the amount of temporary liquidity provided to financial markets by way of its repo interventions fell from $361.5 billion on Thursday to $344.65 billion on Friday.

The bank of Canada has made an unexpected rate cut, cutting the central bank's benchmark interest rate by 50 basis points to 0.75 per cent.

The central bank already cut its rate to 1.25 per cent at a previously scheduled meeting on March 4 to help counteract the impact of the coronavirus. Friday's decision takes that one step further.

"This unscheduled rate decision is a proactive measure taken in light of the negative shocks to Canada's economy arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent sharp drop in oil prices," the bank said.
Under normal circumstances, the bank meets every six weeks to set its interest rate, and only takes action outside of those time frames when the situation calls for it.

Friday's decision shows just how seriously Canadian policy-makers are taking the coronavirus situation. It's the first time the bank has moved its rate higher or lower outside of a scheduled meeting since the financial crisis in 2009.

"Pretty sure I've never seen that: a rate cut on a Friday afternoon," said Doug Porter, chief economist with the bank of Montreal. "Shows you just how unusual these times are to have the bank of Canada to make an announcement like that at two o'clock on a Friday afternoon."

The bank's next scheduled rate decision is set for April 15, at which point the central bank says it will "provide a full update of its outlook for the Canadian and global economies."
Porter thinks the bank will indeed cut again, but likely not before that scheduled meeting. "At this point, we're penciling in another 50-basis-point cut ... which will take them down to 0.25, which is as low as we got during the financial crisis."

The bank's rate impacts the rates that Canadian savers and borrowers get for things like savings accounts and mortgages.

bank of Canada Announces Emergency 50bps Rate Cut, As FinMin Unveils C$10BN Support Program

After a day of relentless central bank interventions across Asia and Europe, which jumped the Atlantic this morning when the Fed announced not one but 6 emergency QE POMOs, moments ago Canada joined the panic response, when the bank of Canada announced an emergency 50bps rate cut, lowering the overnight rate from 1.25% to 0.75%, generally in line with the market's expectations.

According to the central bank, "this unscheduled rate decision is a proactive measure taken in light of the negative shocks to Canada's economy arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent sharp drop in oil prices."

The BOC maintained its easing bias, stating that it stood ready to adjust monetary policy further if required, while it dropped the reference in its January statement which stated policy was at an appropriate level. In its policy statement, the bank said that while the economy had been operating close to potential, with inflation at target, the virus is a "material" negative shock to the Canadian and global outlooks; business activity in some regions has fallen sharply and supply chains have been disrupted, reflective in CAD and commodities, the statement noted.

The BOC also believes that as the virus spreads, business and consumer confidence will deteriorate further, which will depress activity. In light of all these developments, the central bank said that the outlook was clearly weaker now than it was in January.

Finally, the bank said it "has also taken steps to ensure that the Canadian financial system has sufficient liquidity."

Some more details from the announcement:

The bank of Canada today lowered its target for the overnight rate by 50 basis points to ¾ percent. The bank Rate is correspondingly 1 percent and the deposit rate is ½ percent. This unscheduled rate decision is a proactive measure taken in light of the negative shocks to Canada's economy arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent sharp drop in oil prices.

It is clear that the spread of the coronavirus is having serious consequences for Canadian families, and for Canada's economy. In addition, lower prices for oil, even since our last scheduled rate decision on March 4, will weigh heavily on the economy, particularly in energy intensive regions.

The bank will provide a full update of its outlook for the Canadian and global economies on April 15. As the situation evolves, Governing Council stands ready to adjust monetary policy further if required to support economic growth and keep inflation on target.

The bank has also taken steps to ensure that the Canadian financial system has sufficient liquidity. These additional measures have been announced in separate notices on the bank's website. The bank is closely monitoring economic and financial conditions, in coordination with other G7 central banks and fiscal authorities.

On Thursday, the Federal Reserve noticed the market jamming up and decided to step in with an infusion of cash available to banks. The New York Fed said it was injecting the money "to address the highly unusual disruptions to Treasury financing markets associated with the coronavirus outbreak."

Treasurys - U.S. government debt - are typically widely traded. They're the grease that makes the wheels of the credit and trading system function efficiently. But in recent days, the Treasury market has become brittle.

Treasurys "are the most liquid market on the planet bar none," said Gennadiy Goldberg, U.S. rates strategist for TD Securities. "When it's experiencing problems, you know something is wrong."

Normally, when there's a big stock sell-off, investors flee for the safety of U.S. Treasurys. And during the market sell-offs recently, it's exactly what has been happening.

Except on Thursday.
Goldberg said the trading system was sputtering. Dealers - the banks that buy and sell under all conditions - didn't have robust enough balance sheets to meet the demand from buyers and sellers of Treasurys.

So trading markets faltered, Goldberg said. The Fed stepped in to prevent a case of the hiccups from becoming something drastically worse.
The Fed also announced a move reminiscent of dramatic actions it took during and immediately after the financial crisis of 2008. It's called quantitative easing and it's meant to relieve the cash liquidity imbalances in the financial markets.
During the crisis, for instance, the Fed bought massive amounts of Treasury debt from banks, flooding the financial system with money.

Now, the Fed is doing something similar - though, so far, on a much smaller scale. As of Friday, it will be purchasing $60 billion in Treasury debt.
And next week, at its regular meeting, the Fed is expected to slash interest rates - perhaps by as much as a full percentage point - which would essentially bring them down to zero. The central bank already cut rates by a half point in an emergency move last week.

All these actions are designed to support both the financial system and the broader economy from the sudden stress brought on by the coronavirus.

bank of Canada Announces Emergency 50bps Rate Cut, As FinMin Unveils C$10BN Support Program

After a day of relentless central bank interventions across Asia and Europe, which jumped the Atlantic this morning when the Fed announced not one but 6 emergency QE POMOs, moments ago Canada joined the panic response, when the bank of Canada announced an emergency 50bps rate cut, lowering the overnight rate from 1.25% to 0.75%, generally in line with the market's expectations.

According to the central bank, "this unscheduled rate decision is a proactive measure taken in light of the negative shocks to Canada's economy arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent sharp drop in oil prices."

The BOC maintained its easing bias, stating that it stood ready to adjust monetary policy further if required, while it dropped the reference in its January statement which stated policy was at an appropriate level. In its policy statement, the bank said that while the economy had been operating close to potential, with inflation at target, the virus is a "material" negative shock to the Canadian and global outlooks; business activity in some regions has fallen sharply and supply chains have been disrupted, reflective in CAD and commodities, the statement noted.

The BOC also believes that as the virus spreads, business and consumer confidence will deteriorate further, which will depress activity. In light of all these developments, the central bank said that the outlook was clearly weaker now than it was in January.

Finally, the bank said it "has also taken steps to ensure that the Canadian financial system has sufficient liquidity."

Some more details from the announcement:

The bank of Canada today lowered its target for the overnight rate by 50 basis points to ¾ percent. The bank Rate is correspondingly 1 percent and the deposit rate is ½ percent. This unscheduled rate decision is a proactive measure taken in light of the negative shocks to Canada's economy arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent sharp drop in oil prices.

It is clear that the spread of the coronavirus is having serious consequences for Canadian families, and for Canada's economy. In addition, lower prices for oil, even since our last scheduled rate decision on March 4, will weigh heavily on the economy, particularly in energy intensive regions.

The bank will provide a full update of its outlook for the Canadian and global economies on April 15. As the situation evolves, Governing Council stands ready to adjust monetary policy further if required to support economic growth and keep inflation on target.

The bank has also taken steps to ensure that the Canadian financial system has sufficient liquidity. These additional measures have been announced in separate notices on the bank's website. The bank is closely monitoring economic and financial conditions, in coordination with other G7 central banks and fiscal authorities.
Separately, Canada's finance minister said Canada is ready to take extraordinary measures to combat the COVID-19 outbreak, and to that purpose, Canada will establish credit support program to provide additional C$10 billion to businesses and stimulate the economy.

In response to the BOC announcement and modest fiscal stimulus, the Canadian dollar initially dropped but quickly regained all losses as the market was expecting the rate cut anyway, with money markets pricing in around 40bps worth of easing.

Luckey Friday The 13th? S&P Futures Limit-Up, Europe Soars Most Since After China Emergency RRR Cut

After collapsing to fresh cycle lows overnight, sliding below 2,400, or down a remarkable 1,000 points in just over three weeks, S&P futures have staged an even more amazing comeback and one day after a historic crash, the Emini is now trading limit up, stuck at 2,582 (or up 5%)…What sparked the reversal in sentiment? It is unclear but the buying started just after midnight Eastern time, amid speculation of BOJ intervention across various markets. A key catalyst hit just after 5am ET, when following failed interventions by the ECB and Fed, China's central bank was the latest to come out with emergency measures when the PBOC announced a targeted RRR cut of 50bp-100bp for banks qualified in "inclusive finance" tests, effective March 16, which will release liquidity of RMB 400bn. An additional 100bp cut will be granted for qualified joint-stock commercial banks, unleashing liquidity of RMB 150bn to the market. This, as Goldman notes, was expected after Premier Li's comments at the State Council meeting on the need to implement target RRR cuts to lower financing costs for small and individual businesses.

Still, there will likely be some buyer remorse disappointment, as the total of RMB 550bn liquidity injected is less than previous RRR cuts (e.g., RMB 800bn effective January 6). But the pattern of the PBOC cutting RRR after Premier Li's comments remained in line with historical precedents. Furthermore, as we highlighted yesterday, the PBOC statement also mentioned the central bank would avoid "flood-like" stimulus, consistent with the article discussing monetary policy in the official newspaper People's Daily on Monday.

Additionally, in Goldman's view, the PBOC has been cautious in targeted easing and doing just enough in recent weeks. This is reflected in the February money and credit data where short-term loans to companies jumped on PBOC relending programs while medium and long-term loans lagged. Given the deteriorating ex-China growth and external demand, the PBOC will need to do more to support the economy, although how much will be done remains to be seen. With the targeted cut today, the PBOC is highly unlikely to announce any broad RRR cut by the end of Q1, in our view.

Whether its positive impact sustains or not remains to be seen, but the RRR cut comes after an out-of-meeting cut from Norway and liquidity measures from the Riksbank, while other Asian central banks including those of Korea, India and Japan, moved to soothe markets.

There was more: one day after European stocks plunged the most on record, they have staged a just as historic rebound, with the Stoxx 600 surging 7.3%, or the most since Nov 2008, after the German Finance Minister Scholz said "we will use all means to tackle the coronavirus; will provide tax relief to Co's including deferrals, tax aid will cost billions. Will, without limit, undertake credit programs" while Germany's Economy Minister Altmaier said around 500 billion Euros are available. Earlier in the session, Asian stocks fell, led by industrials and utilities, after falling in the last session. Most markets in the region were down, with Japan's Topix Index dropping 5% and South Korea's Kospi Index falling 3.4%, while Australia's S&P/ASX 200 gained 4.4%. Trading volume for MSCI Asia Pacific Index members was 33% above the monthly average for this time of the day.

Japan's Nikkei index dives over 9% following Wall Street drop

Asian equity markets slipped further into panic mode on Friday morning after a historic rout on Wall Street sent the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its biggest daily loss since 1987. In Japan, the benchmark Nikkei Stock Average plummeted 10% following the Dow's 9.9% decline on Thursday. The Nikkei dropped more than 1,800 points, recording the biggest single-day drop since April 1990 before the collapse of the country's economic bubble. The benchmark fell to 16,690, its lowest in intraday trading since November 2016. The sharp fall pushed the index further into bear market territory, with the decline from its recent high in January exceeding 30%. Korea's Kospi index dropped more than 8%, triggering a temporary halt to trading. The bank of Korea said it was considering an emergency monetary policy meeting to discuss a interest rate cut. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS fell 2% and is down 12.8% this week. Australia's benchmark fell 7.6% and is set for its worst week on record, while in South Korea the won was shredded and the Kosdaq .KQ11 fell 8%, triggering a short trading halt. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index .HSI fell 6.8%, its steepest drop since 2008. China's Shanghai composite .SSEC fell 4%. The New York Federal Reserve surprised by pumping huge amounts of cash into the banking system, aiming to head off the sort of dislocation that saw markets seize up during the financial crisis more than a decade ago. After adding $500 billion on Thursday, it will inject another $1 trillion today in an effort to stop borrowing costs from rising. Australia's central bank injected an unusually large $5.5 billion into the financial system on Friday.

Currency markets steadied somewhat after furious dollar buying overnight, as fears of systemic risks drive demand for the world's reserve currency. Falling oil prices have also weakened investor sentiment. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude lost $2.14 or 6.5% to close at $30.84 on Thursday and is being traded at $30.74 during off-hour trading. The WTI has plunged 40% over the last month.

Market expects Fed to cut U.S. interest rates to 0% this month

Expected Fed funds rate after March 2020 meeting

Following President Trump's address Wednesday night, the market only moved further in its expectations that the Fed would dramatically cut rates, pricing in as much as a 95% likelihood that the central bank would move toward a reduction of 100 basis points to 0%-0.25% at its next meeting.

The big picture: It would be the Fed's largest rate cut since December 2008 when it last cut rates to zero, warning that "labor market conditions have deteriorated, and the available data indicate that consumer spending, business investment, and industrial production have declined."

Fed to pump in more than $1 trillion in dramatic ramping up of market intervention amid coronavirus meltdown

The Fed announced a bold new initiative in an effort to calm market tumult amid the coronavirus meltdown.
In all, the new moves pump in up to $1.5 trillion into the financial system in an effort to combat potential freezes brought on by the coronavirus.
This was the second day in a row and the third time this week the Fed has stepped in.
Stocks staged a sharp turnaround from earlier losses, though some of those gains were pared.

The Federal Reserve stepped into financial markets Thursday for the second day in a row and the third time this week, this time dramatically ramping up asset purchases amid the turmoil created by the coronavirus. "These changes are being made to address highly unusual disruptions in Treasury financing markets associated with the coronavirus outbreak," the New York Fed said in an early afternoon announcement amid a washout on Wall Street that was heading toward the worst day since 1987.

Stocks were off their lows following the announcement though some of the gains were pared as the market digested the moves. Some in the market were skeptical that the move was enough, and even whether the the Fed itself had the proper tools to reverse the current market downtrend. "We continue to emphasize that this Fed will act aggressively and in particular that central banks are focused on safeguarding market functioning at this point, and will continue to provide liquidity in scale," Ebrahim Rahbari, director of global economics at Citi Research. "However, despite the sharp initial risk rally, we think these measures will still not be sufficiently to durably stabilize market sentiment yet in light of credit concerns and escalating health concerns."

One part of the announcement saw the Fed widen the scale for its $60 billion worth of money the Treasury purchases, which to now had been confined to short-term T-bills. Under the new regime, the Fed will extend its purchases "across a range of maturities" to include bills, notes, Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities and other instruments. The central bank will begin purchasing coupon-bearing securities, something market participants have been clamoring for since late 2019. The purchases start Thursday and will continue through April 13.

The second part of the new operations will see the New York Fed desk offer $500 billion in a three-month repo operation and a one-month operation. The offerings will happen on a weekly basis through the remainder of the program. In addition, the Fed will continue to offer at least $175 billion in overnight repos and $45 billion in two-week operations. Repos are short-term operations in which financial institutions provide high-quality collateral in exchange for cash reserves they use to operate. The extraordinary moves came amid extreme market turmoil created by uncertainty over the coronavirus pandemic. Government bond yields earlier this week cascaded to record lows amid reports of liquidity issues in the market and fears of a global recession.

However, questions remain whether the Fed can arrest the market's issues on its own. Wall Street has been looking for an aggressive fiscal response and has yet to get it from Washington lawmakers. "The virus was the catalyst but it's not the cause," said Christopher Whalen, founder of Whalen Global Advisors. "Both bonds and equities were inflated rather dramatically by our friends at the Fed. You're seeing the end game for monetary policy here, which is at a certain point you have to stop. Otherwise you get grotesque asset bubbles like we saw, and the engine just runs out of fuel."

Markets have been looking for action by the Fed, which instituted an inter-meeting interest rate cut last week that did nothing to quell concerns. The Fed on Monday increased the limits for its ongoing repo operations, then Wednesday expanded the limits an announced a $50 billion term offering that attracted heavy interest earlier in the day Thursday. Along with the announcement, the Fed pledged that "the terms of operations will be adjusted as needed to foster smooth Treasury market functioning and efficient and effective policy implementation."

Stocks & Bond Yields Collapse After Trump Announces EU Travel Ban
Shortly after President Trump began his address to the nation, enacting a full travel ban from European nations for the next 30 days, the markets started to get upset. Dow futures are down over 850 points. Japan's Nikkei 225 is down over 350 points. 10Y Treasury yields are down 15bps. The Euro is strengthening against the dollar. Contracts on the S&P 500 Index that expire in March fell 2.7% as of 10:27 a.m. in Tokyo. The rout since a record three weeks ago exceeded 20%. Trump also authorized $50 billion for the Small Business Association to extend low-interest loans to companies in affected areas and asked Congress to deliver payroll-tax cuts aimed at boosting take-home pay for working Americans. Japan's central bank is expected to pledge that it is prepared to buy almost $60 billion a year in exchange traded funds to offset the economic and market turmoil caused by coronavirus fears. U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Capitol Hill that the administration hopes to reach an initial agreement with Congress within 48 hours on a stimulus package to ease the economic stress caused by the coronavirus, particularly on the travel and hospitality sectors. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said the vote for a coronavirus bill is planned for Thursday.

Putin on Current Global Markets Turmoil: It Creates Not Only Problems, But Also Opportunities

Monday's stock market drop was the worst correction since the 2008 financial crisis, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average seeing its largest-ever single day point drop in history, and oil futures shedding 20 percent amid jitters over coronavirus and OPEC+'s failure to reach a deal on production cuts.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has commented on the turmoil in global markets, including energy, saying the current processes create not only problems, but also opportunities.

"I'm not just hoping - I'm confident that Russia will go through this turbulent period with dignity and a sense of calm. Moreover, there is every chance for key Russian industries to come out of this situation much stronger and prepared for further, very serious competition. This, of course, should have an impact on the entire Russian economy, and be reflected in a positive way," Putin said, speaking to investors at his Novo Ogarevo residence outside Moscow on Wednesday.

According to Putin, the government and Russia's central bank have the resources to maintain stability, and their main task is to minimize the negative economic effects of the market crisis on ordinary citizens. The president added that the state would do everything necessary to guarantee the safety of national and foreign investments in Russia, and to minimize investment risks.

Putin made the comments before bankers and representatives of investment firms including Altera Capital, RTR-Global, Almaz Capital Partners, VTB bank, Yandex and the Russian Direct Investment Fund, with Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin also in attendance.

On Tuesday, Russia's Finance Ministry indicated that it did not expect an economic recession as a result of the global market downturn, and said that it had mechanisms in place to account for the loss of oil and gas budget revenues. The Ministry also calculated that the country's sovereign wealth fund has accumulated enough liquidity in the form of $150 billion in assets to compensate for lower revenues from oil even if prices remained at the $25-$30 a barrel mark for the next six to ten years.

Regulators Stonewall on Government Intervention in Gold Market

Does the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission have jurisdiction over manipulative futures trading by the U.S. government, other governments, or brokers acting for them?

Is the commission aware of futures trading by governments?

In a letter to U.S. Rep. Alex Mooney, R-West Virginia, dated January 28 and released to Money Metals and Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee (GATA) this week, the commission's chairman, Heath P. Tarbert, refused to say.

GATA put those questions and others to the CFTC in 2018 but could get no response.

At our urging, Mooney put those questions and others to the CFTC a year ago in February.

He, too, got no response but kept pressing.

Tarbert's January 28 letter to Mooney contains an attachment prepared by commission staff that acknowledges the key questions but fails to answer them.

Question 5 in the attachment, asking whether the commission's jurisdiction covers manipulative trading by the government itself, is a yes-or-no question.

But the reply says only:

The CFTC has exclusive jurisdiction over futures trading on trading facilities registered with the commission as designated contract markets.

Question 6 in the attachment, asking if the commission is aware of trading by the U.S. government or other governments, is also a yes-or-no question.

Instead the commission's reply says:

The commission may not publish 'data and information that would separately disclose the business transactions or market positions of any person and trade secrets or names of customers.'

But the commission's admission of simple awareness of trading by governments would not disclose any transactions or market positions, and official filings and statements by CME Group, operator of the major U.S. futures exchanges, explicitly acknowledge that governments are secretly trading futures under CME Group's central bank Incentive Program.

bank of England Cuts Key Interest Rate in Response to Virus

The bank of England has cut its key interest rate by half a percentage point to 0.25%. The bank of England slashed its key interest rate by half a percentage point to 0.25% on Wednesday, as part of an emergency package of measures to cushion the "economic shock" of the coronavirus outbreak.

The central bank said the move would "help support businesses and consumer confidence at a difficult time."

The cut took the main rate to a record low, last reached after Britain's June 2016 vote to leave the European Union. It came just hours before the British government was expected to announce its own package of measures to shore up the economy against arguably the biggest economic shock since the global financial crisis 12 years ago.

The cut follows similar reductions from the U.S. Federal Reserve and the bank of Canada. The European central bank is also expected to announce a package of stimulus measures on Thursday. Growth projections have been slashed for all major world economies as the virus halts production and dents business and consumer confidence. Global stock markets have suffered their biggest daily losses since the height of the global financial crisis in 2008.

U.S. consumer prices unexpectedly rise in February
U.S. consumer prices unexpectedly rose in February but are likely to decline in the months ahead as the coronavirus outbreak depresses demand for some goods and services, outweighing price increases related to shortages caused by disruptions to the supply chain. The report from the Labor Department on Wednesday, which also showed a steady rise in underlying inflation last month, is however, unlikely to change financial market expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates again at its policy meeting next week.

Oil War Escalates Again After Saudi and U.A.E Promise Flood of Crude

Saudi Arabia promised to increase production capacity and the United Arab Emirates said it plans to pump as much as possible next month.

Riyadh said it will boost capacity to an unprecedented 13 million barrels a day, doubling down on Tuesday's pledge of extra output in April. The U.A.E., a close Saudi ally, then promised to push more crude to customers than it can produce. These are fresh shots in an all-out war that has seen prices crash and the outlook for the market darken as nations prepare to pump as much as they can.

Reads on Bolshevik rev

https://www.eaec.org/newsletters/1999/NL1999jun.htm

(Excerpt from article)

The Bolshevik revolution that took place in Russia in October, 1917 was not a Russian movement. German intelligence had infiltrated Russia long before World War I began in 1914, and the overthrow of the Russian Tzar took place on February 24, 1917. The war against Germany was going badly for the Russians; losses in human life were staggering. On the 24th of February food riots broke out in St. Petersburg. Instead of putting down the rioters, the military garrison joined the uprising and Tzar Nicholas II was forced to abdicate. When his brother, Grand Duke Michael, refused to take over the throne, a committee of the Duma (Russian Parliament) appointed a Provisional Government to succeed the Tzar. But there was opposition from St. Petersburg's Soviet of Workers and Soldiers' Deputies. In all the bickering that occurred (exactly what is happening today in Russia), one strong man was able to form some kind of a government, and his name was Aleksandr F. Kerensky, a Russian Jew and a Socialist Revolutionary.

It is very important to understand that the majority of the Russian intelligentsia at this time consisted of Russian Jews, and the reason for this was that very few Russian children had access to a higher education, which the Jews had. Furthermore, most of these Russian Jews were also members of Jewish Free Masonic lodges. The same holds true in the 1990's, it is Russian Jews who have floated to the top in business, politics and the crime syndicate in today's Russia. At the same time Russia is reeling from political and financial instability, just as it was in 1916. Nothing has changed. It is just a matter of time before another group of revolutionaries will come on the scene and take Russia back to a hard ruthless military dictatorship. This time they will not call themselves "Communists;" this time they will be "ultra nationalists."

THE WARBURG FAMILY
At the same time Lenin and his Russian-Jewish wife Nadezhda Krupskaya were living in Switzerland and had been since around 1900. They were supported by Western Intelligence services, who in turn were financed by the World Government. It was in Switzerland that Lenin and his wife led a group of Russian-Jewish revolutionaries, who had been trained in the teachings of Karl Marx (a German Jew who wrote the thesis for Communism together with Friedrich Engels, also a German Jew).

The "kingpin" in the moving of Communist Jewish revolutionaries to Russia, was Max Warburg (1867-1946), a banker from the German city Hamburg and also at this time the head of the German Intelligence Service. The history of the Warburg family is as intriguing as the history of the Rothschilds. The Warburg family originally came from Italy in 1559, and this Jewish family, known in Italy as Del Branco, took the German name Warburg from the city of Warburgum, where they first settled. In 1798 the bank M.M.Warburg & Co. of Hamburg was founded. Simon Elias Warburg went to Sweden (1760-1828), where he founded the first Jewish community in that nation, his grandson Frederik Elias Warburg (1832-1899) moved to England and was a cofounder of the central London Electric Railway. Other Warburgs moved to Copenhagen in Denmark, and took the original name Del Branco. Paul Moritz Warburg (1868-1932) moved to the United States in 1902 and became a member of the biggest Jewish bank in the United States, Kuhn, Loeb and Co. of New York. Felix Moritz Warburg (1871-1937) also moved to the United States and joined Kuhn, Loeb & Co. as a partner. Fritz Moritz Warburg (1879-1964) also moved to the United States, and become active in adult education and Jewish theological schools. These four brothers, Max, Paul, Felix and Fritz were born in Germany.

At this time in history, the Warburg bank was tied in with the Rothschild bank, and the reason for Paul Warburg to move to New York, was to work for the establishment of an "AMERICAN central bank." Working at Kuhn Loeb and Co. Paul Warburg lectured and worked on American politicians until the Federal Reserve act was passed on December 22, 1913 and Paul Warburg became its chairman.

bank Of Japan Buys Record Amount Of ETFs, Admits 'Paper Losses', Plans Program Expansion

Having blown over two trillion yen since October in purchasing stocks (ETFs) in the open market to "support Japan's economy," markets are rife with speculation the Band of Japan (BoJ) could pledge next week to buy ETFs at a faster pace than the current commitment to do so by roughly 6 trillion yen ($58.12 billion) per year.

Following pressure from Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe,

"Markets are making nervous movements amid uncertainty over the global economic outlook. Based on agreements made among G7 and G20 nations, the government will work closely with the BOJ and authorities of other countries to respond appropriately," Abe said in a meeting with ruling party executives on Tuesday.

Reuters reports that such a step is among options the central bank may consider if it approaches the ceiling as a result of aggressive purchases, according to sources familiar with the BOJ's thinking.

central banking Is Socialism! - Dr. Ron Paul

Last week, the Federal Reserve responded to Wall Street's coronavirus panic with an "emergency" interest rate cut. This emergency cut failed to revive the stock market, leading to predictions that the Fed will again cut rates later this month.

More rate cuts would drive interest rates to near, or even below, zero. Lowering interest rates punishes people for saving, thus encouraging consumers and businesses to spend every penny they make. This may give the economy a short-term boost. But, it inhibits long-term economic growth by depleting the savings necessary for investments in businesses and jobs. The result of this policy will be more pressure on the Fed to indefinitely maintain low interest rates and on the Congress and president to create another explosion of government "stimulus" spending.

Boston Federal Reserve President Eric Rosengren has suggested that Congress allow the Federal Reserve to add assets of private companies to the Fed's already large balance sheet. Allowing the central bank to buy assets of, and thus assume a partial ownership interest in, private companies would give the Federal Reserve even greater influence over the economy. It could also allow the Fed to advance a political agenda by, for example, favoring investment in "green energy" companies over other companies or refusing to purchase assets of retailers who sell firearms or tobacco products.

Mr. Rosengren's proposal to allow the central bank to "invest," in private companies seems like something one would hear from democratic socialists like Senator Bernie Sanders. This is not surprising since the entire Federal Reserve system is a textbook example of socialism.

The essence of socialist economics is government allocation of resources either by seizing direct control of the "means of production" or by setting prices business can charge. Federal Reserve manipulation of interest rates is an attempt to set the price of money. Federal Reserve attempts to set interest rates distort the signals sent by the rates to investors and business. This results in a Fed-created boom, which is inevitably followed by a Fed-created bust.

Economic elites benefit when the Federal Reserve pumps new money into the economy because they have access to the money created before there are widespread price increases. Artificially low interest rates also facilitate the growth of the welfare-warfare state.

The Federal Reserve's inflationary policies harm the average American by eroding the dollar's purchasing power. This forces consumers to rely on credit cards and other forms of debt to maintain their standard of living. Many Americans are unable to afford their own homes because they are saddled with student loan debt that can even exceed their income.

Since the bailouts of 2008, there has been a growing understanding that the current system is rigged in favor of the elites and against the average American. Unfortunately, popular confusion of our system of Keynesian neoliberalism with a free-market economy, combined with a widespread entitlement mentality, has led many Americans to support increasing government control of our economy.

The key to beating back the rising support for socialism on both the left and right is helping more people understand that big government and central banking are the cause of their problems and that free markets in all areas - and especially in money - is the solution. It is important that the liberty movement put pressure on Congress to cut spending and rein in or, better yet, end the Fed.

The Real Causes for the Oncoming Economic Collapse

This Thursday, the markets took a 1000 point hit which was more than a little startling for many investors since the last 1000 point fall only happened three days prior... all in all bringing the financial markets to lows not seen since April 2011, and veering dangerously close to a precipice which has 1929 written all over it. Across the internet, panicky discussion has erupted over whether this foretells another 1987 collapse as Donald Trump warned, or something more akin to Black Tuesday of 1929. Others have pondered whether this is more similar to a 1923 Weimar hyperinflation where Germans became millionaires overnight (not much to celebrate when bread costs billions).

The fact of the oncoming collapse itself should not be a surprise- especially when one is reminded of the $1.5 quadrillion of derivatives which has taken over a world economy which generates a mere $80 trillion/year in measurable goods and trade. These nebulous bets on insurance on bets on collateralized debts known as derivatives didn't even exist a few decades ago, and the fact is that no matter what the Federal Reserve and European central bank have attempted to do to stop a new rupture of this overextended casino bubble of an economy in recent months, nothing has worked. Zero to negative percent interest rates haven't worked, opening overnight repo loans of $100 billion/night to failing banks hasn't worked- nor has the return of quantitative easing which restarted on October 17 in earnest. No matter what these financial wizards try to do, things just keep getting worse. Rather than acknowledge what is actually happening, scapegoats have been selected to shift the blame away from reality to the point that the current crisis is actually being blamed on the Coronavirus!

Deeper than Corona

Let me just state outright: That while the coronavirus may in fact be the catalyzer for the oncoming financial blowout, it is the height of stupidity to believe that it is the cause, as the seeds of the crisis goes deeper and originated much earlier than most people are prepared to admit.

To start getting at a more truthful diagnostic, it is useful to think of an economy in real (vs purely financial) terms - That is: Simply think of the economy as total system in which the body of humanity (all cultures, nations and families of the world) exist.

This co-existence is predicated on certain necessary powers of production of food, clothing, capital goods (hard and soft infrastructure), transportation and energy production. After raw materials are transformed into finished goods, these physical goods and services move from points A to B and are consumed. This is very much akin to the metabolism that maintains a living body.

Now since populations tend to grow geometrically, while resources deplete arithmetically, constant demands on new creative discoveries and technological application are also needed to meet and improve upon the needs of a growing humanity. This last factor is actually the most important because it touches on the principled element that distinguishes humanity from all other forms of life in the ecosystem which Lincoln identified wonderfully in his 1859 Discoveries and Inventions Speech:

"All creation is a mine, and every man, a miner. The whole earth, and all within it, upon it, and round about it, including himself, in his physical, moral, and intellectual nature, and his susceptibilities, are the infinitely various "leads" from which, man, from the first, was to dig out his destiny... Man is not the only animal who labors; but he is the only one who improves his workmanship. This improvement, he effects by Discoveries, and Inventions."

During a 1994 address to Russian scientists in Moscow, a modern adherent to Lincoln's system (the late economist Lyndon LaRouche) addressed this concept from a modern perspective by asking:

As a precautionary measure, about 100 colleagues who have worked near the affected person are now to work from home. "Potentially affected" offices would be thoroughly cleaned.
The ECB had only tested the emergency on Monday and asked its approximately 3700 employees in Frankfurt am Main to work from home as a precaution.

30-year Treasury yield tumbles below 1% after oil and coronavirus worries rout stocks

Four Handle on US Treasury Note-10 year

U.S. Treasury yields fell Monday morning as a breakdown in talks between major oil exporters sparked a sharp decline in oil prices, sending stocks and inflation expectations lower.

The rising number of COVID-19 cases in the U.S. also threatened to hamper consumer demand, the linchpin of the U.S. economy.
What are Treasurys doing?

The 10-year Treasury note yield TMUBMUSD10Y, 0.425% fell 29.2 basis points to 0.415%, hitting an intraday record low of 0.339% in overnight trading, while the 2-year note rate TMUBMUSD02Y, 0.278% was down 20.2 basis points to 0.275%.

The 30-year bond yield TMUBMUSD30Y, 0.854% slipped 37.9 basis points to 0.836%, a record. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields. All three maturities are trading below 1% for the first time in history.
What's driving Treasurys?

Talks between Russia and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries failed to result in an agreement on crude production cuts. In response, Saudi Arabia slashed crude prices and was looking to ramp up production, a move that would cut into Russia's market share. The disagreement between the major oil exporters sparked the biggest one-day slump in crude oil prices since the Gulf War, and sent global equity markets lower. Safe-haven assets like Treasurys saw sharp bidding, with the longer-term maturities seeing the sharpest rally as energy prices are closely tied to inflation expectations.

Futures for the S&P 500 SPX, -1.70% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.98% plunged 5%, triggering circuit-breakers.

The 10-year break-even rate, expectations for consumer prices as indicated by trading for Treasury inflation-protected securities, fell to its lowest level since the middle of 2009.

Worries around the coronavirus also kept investors on edge, as the growing number of confirmed cases in Western Europe along with the U.S. threatened to slow growth. Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte signed a decree limiting community interaction for nearly five weeks in parts of Northern Italy.

End the Fed

In response to the potential economic downturn in the economy arising from the spread of the Coronavirus, the Federal Reserve dropped the federal funds rate by half a point - to a range of 1% to 1.25%. Ironically, after the Fed's announcement, the stock market dropped 786 points or 2.9%.

The Fed's aim is to stimulate economic activity. By lowering interest rates, the idea is to get businesses to expand operations with more loans and to get consumers to go deeper into debt by purchasing more items.

The result of the Fed's artificial economic "boost" will be the same as it has been since the Fed was established in 1913: a bubble of malinvestment and consumer loan defaults that will end up plunging the country in a bubble-bursting recession or even depression.

That's because genuine prosperity in a country cannot be generated by central bank manipulations. If that were the case, every country on earth would be characterized by ever-growing standards of living. In fact, a central bank does the exact opposite - it lowers a nation's standard of living through its artificial manipulations of interest rates and its expansion and contraction of the money supply.

The never-ending cycle of monetary crises and chaos shouldn't surprise anyone. The Federal Reserve is a socialist institution, in that it is based on the socialist concept of central planning. A central bank consists of a board of government commissars who have the responsibility of planning the monetary affairs of hundreds of millions of people.

It cannot be done. Socialism is an inherently defective economic system. It produces monetary crises and chaos, which is what we have seen in the United States since the Fed was established in 1913.

for each of them, send a bill, that accrues interest, to their central bank. demand that they pay this bill for all the time that these people are not in their own coutnries becuase the bank is allowed, some say, to 'issue' money based upon population, or to borrow. So the illegals are driven off, after being counted, so the families fo those like AOC can borrow more or pilfer more.

It's very sad that these people are made out to be pawns by the democrats. They profiteer off of welfare voychering, and live the vida - loca in a near by suburb.

The 'illegals' are made to be servant class people, who might 'trade up' by being someone's comfort person provider . . . or worse.

It's sick the way that these children and their parents are exploited.

I knew that my home state was taken over when they said 'free tuition for dreamers'.
why? what did they do to deserve it? It was complete descrimination.
now in my home state the marsists in the big city don't want thier 'constituancy' to have to pay for their gold plated transportation or parking costs, so they suggest that 'low income' should pay a lower fare. So I have to give an income report before I can ride the cross town buss? who else gets that data.
Or they say 'poor people shold pay less for parking tickets.' Again, a nonsequetor.
What do they have? they have a voychor economy, a hunger games on the mean streets, where children are used to profiteer off of the welfare system, and used as ways to blackmail grand parents, or other horid concepts . . .

the heroin streets, there ought to be no children there.

the voucher econmoy lets the so-called non-profit 'social service providers' get fat and drunk with power and money. See the lines, the very many lines but if you dare to print the name of the dot org that profiteers, and brings in the illegals, if you dare to say the name in print they will slap you with a suit and say 'you've been served'.

In a welfare town you see the ugly types, with the cigar and that 'Ive got a live one' look. You wonder how they arrived here from 4500 miles away to be a minor lord in a minor welfare town?

And dare to say this kind of stuff outloud in the town hall where the high-born reptiles wear their polyester that say's it's wool suit, and flop swet meeting 'patrons'.
if a town is all illegal aliens one wonder why a congress person would bother?

but democrats are operators for the international marxists. These 'illegals' are probably high born of that group, here to colonize. They have their herems, they keep their welfare children and cash the checques.

We see it all around us. Dare to talk about it around Democrats. Dare to and see how quickly they have dagger drawn.
and they have their political meetings in the town hall
and they don't even keep it secret that they are a little click

when will it end?
how can we continue when the situation that I describe is what we see in the streets all around us?
when will we break the welfare system so that the profiteering marxists leeches from everywhere can't come in and claim benifits, probably in 12 different towns each, how hard could it be. Ah, but now they'll take DNA?

so, ya, count them all. And bill their home countries. And declare that all who work for so called social service non profits can only take an income that makes them even wtih those who they service.

end the welfare profiteers.
but if you see them at the town hall, in their brand new electric vehicles that get charged up for free by the town (it's a comp) then . . . well ask them about welfare profiteering. They will tell you you are crazy. They will ask you 'where do you get your news' they might even defend it, as if they are the 'best people' and 'that's the family business'.

It's so obvious and yet no one can do anything about it.
the whole system of towns and government is totally broken. there are profiteers off of government, people whose whole family works for a town or government. And others who squat on 'welfare charity' dollars in a non profit.

it goes on and on and it doesn't seem to be changing at all.

Market Report

Oil, T-bills/Notes/bonds-everything debt related got hammered-especially oil. The Equity Markets were down all day and a late session panic buying spree lifted them to close just shy of the morning's highs-See cap#2. Volumes are still elevated but this is a pretty good finish-no matter how it was done. The global equity market cap collapsed by a record $9tn - or two-thirds of China's GDP - in 9 days, while global; sovereign 10-year bond yields crashed below 1.00% for the first time ever-it did it over the last two pre/post market sessions and was only "rescued" by something-ESF* (Exchange Stabilization Fund). Today was also the biggest single-day jump in the Ultra Bond Future ever. 10Y Yields crashed to a stunning 65bps overnight. The 30Y Yield accelerated lower in the last hour, crashing below the Fed Funds Rate. The fear-driven rush into Treasuries (cap#3 is Yield curve-this is also the signal THEY want to send to you that portends a recession-don't buy it…THEY are way moar fucked with this pile of shitty debt than we, as individuals will ever be) pushed one of the world's most-popular bond ETFs to the biggest rally since the 2010 flash crash in stocks. BlackRock Inc.'s $22 billion iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond fund, ticker TLT, rallied as much as 6.4% on Friday as investors plowed into U.S. debt. That was the fund's biggest jump since May 6, 2010, when the Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled nearly 1,000 points in a matter of minutes.
The ESF* quickly stepped in at that point and that drop was erased as quickly as it habbened-for moar on the HFT role in this-and other 'incidents' please see here:
http://www.nanex.net/NxResearch/ResearchPage/3/
The biggest US banks have been taken outside and water-boarded since highs of January-of course the very time they released the Q4 earnings reports. Global Systemically Important banks stocks have crashed to their lowest since 2016. Credit markets were a bloodbath this week, with both HY and IG blowing out in US and EU. The Dollar Index fell for the 2nd straight week (down 6 of the last 7 weeks). Spot Gold soared up to $1690 - the highest since Jan 2013. Looks like quite the amount of paper thrown at it just before mid-session-because you ALWAYS sell gold for profit by dumping a massive amount of volume on it when everything paper-based is down. Wonder how much THAT stunt cost us-because we are paying for it…it's OUR money.
Brent suffered its biggest one-day loss in more than 11 years on Friday after Russia balked at OPEC's proposed steep production cuts to stabilize prices as the coronavirus outbreak slows the global economy and hurts energy demand. A three-year pact between OPEC and Russia ended in acrimony on Friday after Moscow refused to support deeper oil cuts to cope with the outbreak of coronavirus. OPEC responded by removing all limits on its own production. That triggered a rout, with more than 1 million U.S. crude contracts shares trading hands on Friday. U.S. crude futures settled down more than 10%, the largest one-day percentage loss since 2014. OPEC was pushing for an additional 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd) of cuts until the end of 2020. Non-OPEC states were expected to contribute 500,000 bpd to the overall extra cut, OPEC ministers said. The new deal would have meant OPEC+ production curbs amounting to a total of 3.6 million bpd, or about 3.6% of global supply.
More than 4.58 million U.S. front-month crude contracts changed hands this week, the busiest week ever for that contract. This is the worst start to a year for crude since 1986.
VP not playing the game with them and has told them to go fuck themselves (diplomatically speaking)-BRAVO Vlad!!! This effectively makes O.P.E.C. redundant and we get to step up and fill the role with our record high energy production.
Please read this as it goes in to far moar detail than I can and provides a plethora of data and other resources. Thsi place does a good job and has for a while.

Khazarian Jews Kicked Out of Russia

1-20-2020 Ben Fulford:Basically, David Rothschild was kicked out and the Russian central bank was nationalized, which is why half the government was fired, FSB sources tell us.
Here's what our FSB sources have to say on the subject:
"It was supposed to start back in November 2019 when Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev was killed at FSB headquarters, but due to the presence in the country of a huge number of the richest Jews in the world (the Rothschilds, Sheldon Adelson, etc.), this operation was postponed".

On January 18th, Gref told Tass News, "We should brace for the collapse of the existing world order. It will be very painful."

The FSB sources also report that when Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Russian central bank, was fired last week, all cellphones of central bank employees were confiscated and a huge stash of documents was seized.

Putin also wants to Remove all Dual-Citizens from Government

Rothschild-slave President Emmanuel Macron of France is also under siege. He was forced to flee for his life from a theater last week amid rioting that has gone on now for over a year. A new French revolution is coming, French resistance sources promise.

Equally dramatic, if less public, events were going on in Japan last week. A first cousin of former Emperor Hirohito tells us the bank of Japan has been nationalized and the Rothschilds as well as the Rockefellers have been removed from control of this country.

Boston Fed's Rosengren Says Fed May Soon Have To Buy Stocks

Three weeks ago, former Fed Chair Janet Yellen incepted the idea that during the next crisis, the Fed should consider expanding the range of assets it would purchase, most notably buying stocks. Our comment to this was that "thanks to Janet Yellen, we now we know that before the current fiat regime of central banks finally ends and before stocks go limits up as the revolution starts, the Fed will order a POMO of, well, everything in one final, last ditch effort to keep social stability by creating the impression that stocks are stable and rising even as society implodes."

Well, thanks to experiments conducted in a Chinese P-4 biolab, the next crisis appears to have arrived in the form of the coronavirus pandemic, and the idea of the Fed buying stocks is now on the agenda, case in point Boston President Eric Rosengren, who echoed Yellen, and said the Fed should be allowed to buy a broader range of assets - either by change of mandate or through a facility that allows it to buy stocks - if it lacks sufficient ammunition to fight off a recession with interest-rate cuts and bond purchases. In such a scenario, the US Treasury should indemnify the Fed against losses, Rosengren said in the text of remarks scheduled for delivery Friday in New York.

In a situation where both short-term interest rates and 10-year Treasury rates approach the zero lower bound, allowing the Federal Reserve to purchase a broader range of assets could be important.

Excerpt: "In such a case, as Marvin highlighted in his 1999 article, we should allow the central bank to purchase a broader range of securities or assets. Such a policy, however, would require a change in the Federal Reserve Act. ... Alternatively, the Federal Reserve could consider a facility that could buy a broader set of assets, provided the Treasury agreed to provide indemnification.

Rosengren also warned the Fed would face greater challenge than in 2008 crisis when Fed's benchmark rate was cut to nearly zero, because yields on longer-run Treasuries have fallen below 1%.

Fed Reluctant to Do an Emergency Cut, Says Julius Baer's Matthews
"Such a situation would raise challenges policy makers did not face even during the Great Recession," he says at conference hosted by the Shadow Open Market Committee.

That said, Rosengren rejected the option of pushing the federal funds rate below zero in a recession, because somehow buying stocks rather than going NIRP makes more sense. Negative rates would harm banks and may make an economic recovery more difficult, he says

Goodfriend suggested that negative interest rates might be an effective policy tool in some situations - but Rosengren remains skeptical, saying the experience in Europe and Japan shows the adverse side effects are likely quite large.

Excerpt: "In my view, negative interest rates poorly position an economy to recover from a downturn. ... I view the recent experience of countries with negative rates as evidence that such a policy would not be particularly successful in stimulating economic activity. ... [Also,] we need banks to be healthy enough to provide credit and liquidity in challenging economic times.

Rosengren also pointed out something we had pounded the table on in the past, namely that dovish central bank policy is now deflationary, highlighting that in countries that employed negative rates since 2008, the impact on retirement savings and pension funds has incentivized more savings and less spending.

BIS is the most powerful bank in the world, a global central bank for the Eight Families who control the private central banks of almost all Western and developing nations. The first President of BIS was Rockefeller banker Gates McGarrah- an official at Chase Manhattan and the Federal Reserve. McGarrah was the grandfather of former CIA director Richard Helms. The Rockefellers- like the Morgans- had close ties to London.

BIS is owned by the Federal Reserve, bank of England, bank of Italy, bank of Canada, Swiss National bank, Nederlandsche bank, Bundesbank and bank of France.

Historian Carroll Quigley wrote in his epic book Tragedy and Hope that BIS was part of a plan, "to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole...to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert by secret agreements."

BIS holds at least 10% of monetary reserves for at least 80 of the world's central banks, the IMF and other multilateral institutions. It serves as financial agent for international agreements, collects information on the global economy and serves as lender of last resort to prevent global financial collapse.

BIS promotes an agenda of monopoly capitalist fascism. It gave a bridge loan to Hungary in the 1990's to ensure privatization of that country's economy. It served as conduit for Eight Families funding of Adolf Hitler- led by the Warburg's J. Henry Schroeder and Mendelsohn bank of Amsterdam. Many researchers assert that BIS is at the nadir of global drug money laundering.

Asian Market Report

Treasury's/Bonds hammered again as Asian markets drop.
Asian shares and U.S. stock futures fell on Friday following another Wall Street drop as disruptions to global business from the coronavirus beyond China worsened, stoking fears of a prolonged world economic slowdown. Yields on 10-year U.S. Treasuries fell to a record low (Cap#3) and the 30 year bond fell below 1.50% (Cap#4) as investors increased bets that the Federal Reserve will follow this week's "surprise"-not to anyone in here it wasn't-50 basis point rate cut with further easing(probably another 25 basis points) to prevent corporate bond spreads from widening further. Tumbling yields hammered the dollar, which traded near a six-month low versus the yen and close to a two-year trough against the Swiss franc.Oil prices fell due to worries that non-OPEC oil producers might not agree to output cuts even though global energy demand is weakening-Cap#5. The euro held steady at $1.1225. Markets in the euro zone are pricing in a 93 percent chance that the European central bank will cut its deposit rate, now minus 0.50 percent, by 10 basis points next week. The FOMC meeting is on March 18th and they will cut rates again to catch up to the action in the bond market. The Federal Reserve and bank of Canada both responded to the economic threats by cutting interest rates by 50 basis points this week. The Dept. Commerce will release the February Jobs #'s tomorrow morning at 8:30am EST.

BOJ mulls support for firms hit by coronavirus

Japan's central bank is considering a new financing program to support businesses hit hard by the coronavirus outbreak. The move comes as many firms see a steep drop in sales as exports to China sink, foreign visitor numbers decline and events are canceled. The bank of Japan plans to support commercial lenders that provide funds to firms struggling to maintain cash-flow. BOJ policymakers are to meet in mid-March. They will study a second emergency package the government is to draw up by around next Tuesday, and discuss the details and timing of the new financing plan. The government has already started providing emergency loans to firms through the Japan Finance Corporation and other entities.

The disappearance of that money from three banks - Banca de Economii, Banca Sociala and Unibank - plunged the impoverished former Soviet republic into economic and political crisis and was dubbed locally the "theft of the century".

$5 trillion lost in global stock markets melt on coronavirus fears

Stocks shaved some losses on Wall Street after Fed's promise of support

New York: Coronavirus panic sent world stock markets tumbling again on Friday, setting them on course for their largest weekly fall since the 2008 global financial crisis, with over $5 trillion wiped from global market value so far this week.

Stocks shaved some losses on Wall Street after Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell said the central bank will act as appropriate to provide support to the U.S. economy, but the S&P 500 index remained on track for its second-largest weekly percentage decline since 1940.

Market Report

Shorts a fryin' and they are still loading up.

Short-dated Treasury yields fell sharply Wednesday on expectations of further easing by the Federal Reserve, only a day after the U.S. central bank carried out a surprise 50-basis-point rate cut. Treasury yields were very mixed today with the short-end tumbling as the long-end chopper around, ending flat… The 2Y Yield plunged again. The yield curve steepened significantly - to its steepest since June 2018. And on the other side, US yields have collapsed relative to German yields. The Dollar rallied today, desperately trying to erase the rate-cut crash from yesterday. Commodities were generally unchanged today, but PMs held their post-rate-cut gains. Oil surged overnight on OPEC+ hopes, and inventory data, but Russia's lack of cooperation killed any momentum it was going to have. Moves by the Fed and the bank of Canada followed a conference call by G-7 finance ministers and central bank governors Tuesday that pledged measures to shore up global economic growth in the face of the COVID-19 epidemic emanating from China. The World bank and the IMF has pledged billions of dollars to countries to offset the economic damage expected from the virus.

The Fed's Beige Book, a collection of anecdotes from businesses across the U.S., showed the coronavirus was starting to make a dent on the domestic economy and supply chains. Some investors are still betting on the Fed to cut rates again when the Fed formally meets on March 17-18. But St. Louis Fed President James Bullard suggested the central bank was content with where they had set interest rates on Tuesday, and appeared to downplay expectations for additional easing at this month's meeting. But, there is another factor - the market is now demanding almost 2 more rate-cuts in March. And an increasing number of traders are betting on The Fed going ZIRP/NIRP soon.

See cap#5 for the December rate projections for those that do not know these are"bets" via the Chicago Mercantile Exchange's FED Watch and serves as a prediction tool for where the big boi's want the rates placed.

Another 1000-plus-point range day in the Dow has sent realized vol to its highest since mid-2011 - the heart of the European Financial Crisis.
The daily averagesd climbed again with the DOW up almost 6m (avg)
Value was monkey-hammered as the equity momentum factor had its best 3-day surge since June 2016 (Brexit vote). FANG Stocks managed gains today but only marginal…And bank stocks managed gains - after 10 days of carnage.. Finally, this could be a problem for the bears… Bloomberg notes that as of March 2, short sellers had increased outstanding contracts to the highest level since June 2014, according to IHS Markit data.

Q Research General #10645: Super Tues Done, What's Up Next? Edition

So…just another reminder regarding the greatest act of treason in American history!

1913!
A demonrat House, demonrat Senate and demonrat president (not deserving of a capital p) committed outright treason, violated the American Constitution, allowing the setting up of a foreign pond-scum central bank and giving control over the American currency - a control given by the Founding Fathers to ONLY the elected government - to those same foreign scumbags and turning 100's of millions of Americans into debt slaves to globalist pigs who feel it is their right to control all the money in the world and if people in any country want to use their own currency…they can borrow off the scum at interest.

Americans must never forget the last 107 years of slavery of ALL Americans orchestrated and implemented by the treasonous demonrat party!

The federal reserve is illegal, all debt involving the federal reserve are essentially "proceeds of a crime" and need not be submitted by anyone in this Constitutional Republic to the globalist scum who claim <<<they>>> own the American currency. NO, they own only the federal reserve toilet paper and they brand their toilet paper "federal reserve note" to distinguish it from real American currency which is identified as "United States Note."

We must never forget what has been done to generations of American citizens. They were made debt-slaves by the scum that are the demonrat party leadership, the main political puppets of the globalist scum who believe the world must bow to <<<them>>> and <<<their>>> orders.

ALL AMERICANS must keep this uppermost in mind - demonrats have always been slave owners. demonrats owned ALL slaves, demonrats created the kkk, demonrats voted against ending slavery, demonrats voted against allowing their slaves to vote, the demonrats voted against giving female slaves the right to vote, or be equal.

Now the demonrats want to destroy America the way they have been destroying the African-America community through the use of <<<their>>> planned parenthood 'plan' of murdering as many African-American babies as possible and planned parenthood is now the number one cause of death in the African-American community…and that's what the demonrats want for American citizens: debt, death and destruction. The 'D' party must cease to exist.

Anyone in America, ABSOLUTELY ANYONE who thinks the demonrat slave-owners should be voted for is NOT American!

P.S. Corey Feldman and Corey Haim were raped repeatedly while they were child actors and the sub-human stephen king told Corey in a tweet to "chill." Truly, these people are sick and stephen king just outed himself as being at least a defender of if not actually a part of the pedowood swamp.

Question: â€˜Yellow Brick Roadâ€™.

Answer: National Academy graduates fondly recall their experience on the â€œYellow Brick Road.â€ The final test of the fitness challenge, the Yellow Brick Road is a grueling 6.1-mile run through a hilly, wooded trail built by the Marines. Along the way, the participants must climb over walls, run through creeks, jump through simulated windows, scale rock faces with ropes, crawl under barbed wire in muddy water, maneuver across a cargo net, and more. When (and if) the students complete this difficult test, they receive an actual yellow brick to memorialize their achievement. The course came to be known as the â€œYellow Brick Roadâ€ years ago, after the Marines placed yellow bricks at various spots to show runners the way through the wooded trail. The overall fitness challenge began at the National Academy in 1981 and has evolved over the years; we started awarding yellow bricks in 1988. https://www.fbi.gov/services/training-academy/national-academy

Extra Answer:

Open Answer: "Yellow Brick Road." Alice & Wonderland. Marines to follow the path to find the stolen uranium and take-down the Uranium Crime Syndicate via the mass arrests. CERN LHC tied-in with BITCOIN, created by Alice at the CERN LHC labs, and the Uranium Crime Syndicate uses Bitcoin and Alice to hide their earnings in Bitcoin. Marines to follow the brick road and go after these criminals. "Q Is saying that the U.S. will return to sound money (no cabal-controlled central bank (no Federal Reserve)) The Yellow Brick Road is a central part of the book The Wizard of Oz, which was written in 1900, before the Federal Reserve was created. The Yellow Brick Road refers to the gold standard which refers to sound money. Currency that is tied to gold retains value. Currency that is not tied to gold is printed in massive quantities and loses value. The Wizard of Oz was about U.S. currency, gold, and silver in late 1800s and early 1900s. Explanation of the characters of the book: https://theyellowbrickroadfreeblog.wordpress.com/the-meaning-of-the-yellow-brick-road/ ******** "Yellow..." could also be an obtuse reference to the uranium one scandal and FBI involvement. A yellow brick might be a gold bar - we are well on our "way" (road) to a gold backed currency. ********** There are supposedly several thousand tons of gold in the Grand Canyon held under guard by the U.S. Military. Several of the past Presidents going back to the Bush I have tried to get access to these locations but have been denied. Also the cover of the January 1988 edition of 'The Economist' (owned by the Rothschilds) depicts a one world currency in 2018. This could explain why things are moving with such speed and ferocity.

Question: The â€˜fixâ€™ has always been in â€“ no matter which party won the election (-JFK (killed)/Reagan(shot)).

Answer:

Extra Answer:

Open Answer: Paul A. Volcker, the Federal Reserve chairman, received an urgent warning two weeks after Ronald Reagan won the 1980 presidential election. Some of the president-electâ€™s advisers, he was told, wanted to abolish the central bank and replace it with a computer program that would manage interest rates and monetary policy. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/13/business/economy/trump-the-fed-yellen-gets-ready-for-reckoning.html On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan and three others were shot and wounded by John Hinckley Jr. in Washington, D.C., as they were leaving a speaking engagement at the Washington Hilton Hotel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attempted_assassination_of_Ronald_Reagan Jan 19 1982 ''I can't respond to that because the Federal Reserve System is autonomous,'' the President said at a news conference, when asked if he agreed with recent calls for Mr. Volcker's resignation. ''There is no way I can comment on that,'' Mr. Reagan added. http://www.nytimes.com/1982/01/20/business/reagan-criticizes-fed-s-move.html Gunman Hinckley had lived in Lubbock TX from 1974 through 1980, when he was an intermittent student at Texas Tech University there. Hinckley's father founded the Vanderbilt Energy Corporation (an Oil Company). Vanderbilt Energy Corporation filed as a Domestic For-Profit Corporation in the State of Texas and is no longer active. This corporate entity was filed approximately forty-two years ago on Thursday, May 1, 1975 , according to public records filed with Texas Secretary of State. On Tuesday, March 31 the Houston Post published a copyrighted story under the headline: "BUSH'S SON WAS TO DINE WITH SUSPECT'S BROTHER, by Arthur Wiese and Margarte Downing." The lead paragraph read as follows: Scott Hinckley, the brother of John Hinckley Jr., who is charged with shooting President Reagan and three others, was to have been a dinner guest Tuesday night at the home of Neil Bush, son of Vice President George Bush, The Houston Post has learned. According to the article, Neil Bush had admitted on Monday, March 30 that he was personally acquainted with Scott Hinckley, having met with him on one occasion in the recent past. Neil Bush also stated that he knew the Hinckley family, and referred to large monetary contributions made by the Hinckleys to the Bush 1980 presidential campaign. Neil Bush and Scott Hinckley both lived in Denver at this time. Scott Hinckley was the vice president of Vanderbilt Energy Corporation, and Neil Bush was employed as a land man for Standard Oil of Indiana. John W. Hinckley Jr., the would-be assassin, lived on and off with his parents in Evergreen, Colorado, not far from Denver.

Question: Wealth (over generations) buys power. Power (over generations) buys more wealth/control. More wealth/control buys countries and its people. Families combined (TRI) = NWO. Inner TRI families will collapse

Answer: Saudi Arabia Rothchild Soros SA - provides a way of undisclosed influence over individuals, the source of all financial persuasion. When the clean up of SA occurred the majority of the TRIs slush funds went with it. SAâ€™s job is to bribe, fund and stay relatively behind the scenes. SA = Controls people in governments Rothchild - provides a way of influence over matters of national finance (all the central banks). They are able to control and manipulate national finances to their favour via â€œlegitimised avenuesâ€ such as stocks, property investments etc. While these avenues generate massive wealth they are also fairly well documented hence the need for a â€œcash flowâ€ partner in SA. Rothchilds have also worked their way into some extremely influential positions to be able to manipulate things to their benefit. They own the newswires Associated Press (AP), Thomson-Reuters as well as publications like The Economist. This is the way they can set and control the narrative. Rothchild = Influence + manipulation (information/narrative) Soros - influences mainstream media. Itâ€™s no good having the power to control and manipulate national finances unless you have a way of voicing your agendas. Soros is reported to have connections to over 30 MSM outlets. Soros = Control of information Soros - also influences people through organizations (Open Society) which is a clearinghouse for subversive organizations that works with others like National Endowment for Democracy and other CIA fronts. Through these, infiltration into academia and other areas of society can exert and enormous influence over the public and social trends. The "color revolutions" where the same flyers were passed out in different countries are an example of this influence. Overthrow governments for the central families (TRI - the cabal) via CIA and using social media to guide the public. Soros = Control of mass movements of people/social trends

Question: How many planes carried the cash into Iran.

Answer: There were 2 deliveries. Total of $1.7 billion in Cash, via Switzerland, then on to Iran. https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-sent-two-more-planeloads-of-cash-to-iran-after-initial-payment-1473208256 (behind paywall) https://archive.is/1kjOh (full article) The planes did not all land in Iran.

Extra Answer: $400 million to Iran in January 2016, converted into non-US currencies (!) by Swiss and Dutch central banks 2 more shipments $1.3 billion cash payments in Swiss francs, euros and "other currencies" on Jan 22, and Feb 5 which an Iranian cargo plane picked up in Geneva. Settlement announced by State Dept on Jan 17, but didn't brief Congress that the entire amount had been paid in cash. "Sanctions impair Tehranâ€™s ability to receive payments using the international banking system. The settlement resulted from a legal arbitration under way in the Netherlands since the early 1980s between the U.S. and Iran. At issue was a $400 million payment Tehranâ€™s last monarch, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, made to a Pentagon trust fund just months before his government was toppled. The money was earmarked for airplane parts that were never delivered. Obama administration officials have said they believed the U.S. was set to lose the court proceedings in The Hague and would end up being liable for as much as $10 billion because of accrued interest."
