SDR – China – Dollar


imf-sdr

COMMENT: You are wrong. The SDR will destroy the dollar as of October 1st when they include China. You will see. China will sell all its US Treasurys and buy SDRs.

REPLY: Your very statement is totally absurd. The SDR is calculated simply by a basket of currencies including the dollar, yen, pound, and euro (see IMF calculation). So please explain to me, when the SDR is just a basket of currencies that have all declined against the dollar, just how the SDR could destroy the dollar when it is its largest component?

Here is a chart of the SDR against the dollar. It too has declined like the components of the yen, euro, and pound. Now let’s look at the Chinese yuan. This too has declined against the dollar. So I fail to see how the SDR will destroy the dollar without a magical recovery in Japan, China, Britain, and Brussels. The dollar has been rising against the yuan since 2013. So why would you sell all treasury bonds when they have made a fortune on the currency and swap into something that depreciates?

Jim Grant Rejects Rogoff’s “Curse Of Cash”, Warns “Government Wants To Control Your Money”


The FED is only interested today in supporting the federal government its original charter was to prevent bank runs by buying and selling commercial paper. FDR changed that and so today the FED tries to control the economy with interest rates and buying and selling government debt neither of these works at economic smoothing and so we have what we have a situation where the government thinks it can control the economy but actual has no way to do so. The discussion is to long for a blog post but it is a fact why else to we have under 2% growth +/- 1% interest and trillions of dollars in debt?

Draghi Cannot Admit He is Wrong


Mario Draghi

Mario Draghi cannot possibly admit that he is dead wrong in managing the European economy. This idea that continuing to lower rates will somehow inspire people to risk it all is just insane. This is even coming from Goldman Sachs, which means nothing for qualification. The people in the elitist banking group think that power makes everything and they believe the conspiracy theories, which shows that they are drunk on their own egos. Just because you are running the central bank does not mean you are all-powerful, and the utter failure of Mario Draghi is exposing that to the world.

The ECB’s entry into the corporate bond market has shown that Draghi is becoming desperate for he is buying bonds with junk ratings. It is one thing to buy good corporate paper, but he is buying the bottom of the barrel in hopes of fending off corporate failures. Draghi has even bought notes from troubled German carmaker Volkswagen AG.

Draghi’s first corporate bond purchases indeed made an impact, but one has to wonder how this will inspire growth rather than prevent failures. The ECB publicly said it would buy bonds from companies with a single investment-grade rating. Yet, people assumed the ECB would be buying the region’s highest-rated securities.

We are witnessing how governments collapse. We have unqualified people running things who are incapable of admitting to mistake and merely accelerate the same process.

Guccifer 2.0: More hacked DNC documents revealed at cyber conference


The government insists that the Russians have hack the DNC and the reason is that they are making a case to go to war with Russia. This makes no sense since Russia and the U.S. have the ability to destroy each other many times over and that meant it was to neither of their advantage to attack the other. This was called mutually Assured Destruction or MAD back in the day of the USSR. For some reason the butch females surrounding Obama Abedin, H. Clinton, Jarrett, Mills, M. Obama. Powers, and Rice started the Arab Spring which has lead to the current situation leading to war — some one needs to stop this before we are all killed..
