Zero Hedge

There seems to be very little competence in GOV. Academia is almost as bad. The private sector is where you find the very sharp traders who understand global capital flows.
Daniel Ivandjiiski is one of these people. He is credited with founding the site, Zero Hedge. He claims that he is just one of several writers who go under the pseudonym of Tyler Durden.
From Wiki; Matt Taibbi cites Zero Hedge as having accurately assessed the level of corruption in the banking industry. He questions why mainstream financial media did not earlier detect the corruption at Goldman Sachs.[15]
The site was described by CNNMoney as offering a "deeply conspiratorial, anti-establishment and pessimistic view of the world."[7] Other writers have characterized the site as conspiratorial.[8][9] A Forbes article described the site as a source of hysteria and occasionally misleading information.[10]
oh, so it's only occasionally misleading.

In December 2012, Bank of America blocked its employees' access to Zero Hedge.[14]
ZH often posts old posts that predicted things that are happening in the present.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge#cite_note-NYMag-3

Talk about "snarky" Zero Hedge - RationalWiki
Zero Hedge has an admirable track record.

Wiki again; "Durden says two-thirds of its readers are from Wall Street.[2] According to Quantcast, in 2012 Zero Hedge had a monthly global traffic of 1.8 million people."
So, ZH is a bunch of conspiratorial morons who are closely watched by all the stupid people on Wall Street.

No employment,,, no wages

It's been quiet lately but, the B.I.S said that the calm is soon to end. The FED prints free money. When you have free money, you can buy off academia, AND politicians. Weekend Edition: Why the Government Hates Gold | Casey Research

Maybe the jobs went to low-price competitors.The global-mean wage that was initiated by China has now killed their markets.This probably has something to do with automation.

There are quite a few problems unfolding.
21 New Numbers That Show That The Global Economy Is Absolutely Imploding
MANY writers have written about the enormous increases in productivity-per-worker. Well shucks,,,, the world doesn't need very many workers if the current ones are super-productive.
MANY writers have written about the end of jobs. Our society has no way to deal with hundreds of millions who no longer have meaningful employment as the central focus of their lives. Our economy has no path to provide support to hundreds of millions who have no income. There is talk of helicopter money,,, and even stranger ideas;

Markets are going to be a mess while mankind thrashes around trying to figure out how to have a functioning society where very few people are employed.

So, we have $200---250 trillion in debt that has been serviced by creating fresh debt to roll over the original debt. The BIS says that this is winding down. Debt creation is like air under the wings of a plane. Draghi and Kuroda talk about "bazookas" to save the system. The world is slowly coming to an understanding that debt creation only works in small doses. A welfare State needs BIG doses because; debt created for consumption is not the same as debt created for investment / growth.
America has been slower to create debt through the FED. BUT, this is an election year. Peter Schiff is calling for lots of QE before the election.

Everywhere that the core population is shrinking, the State can't escape a crash. But, what about the cost?

Labor Minister Andrea Nahles said the number of recipients of benefits could rise by up to 460,000."

Think about this. No income for pension funds, banks, insurance funds, hedge funds and sovereign wealth funds.I wonder why.Ah, so they plan to blame it on the brexit instead of their own stupidity.This is the last hurrah of Draghi,( from GS) as everything goes into reverse.No wages, no consumption.No consumption, we don't need shipping. Strangely, the stock market is rising at the same time that LOTS of investors are fleeing.

the petro-dollar crash brought a crash of U.S. treasuries

When the gold-backed Bretton Woods dollar died, there was a danger that the U.S. dollar would no longer be the anchor and preferred store-of-value. Kissinger was sent to the oil exporters to persuade them to sell oil in dollars only. He argued that; making the dollar stable would give them stability for their savings. He argued that making America stable would make their savings safe. He agreed that they could steadily raise the price of crude. BUT, they agreed to buy U.S. Treasuries with their profits.

FED GOV was now motivated to see the price of oil go way up. More treasury bonds would be sold to the oil exporters. EXXON reported that they earn $ 2.31 a Bbl. GOV added tons of tax to energy. On top of that, OPEC sent their profits back to U.S. GOV. Most of the money that we spent on oil went straight OR roundabout back to GOV coffers. Between oil leases, direct taxes and bond purchases from OPEC, FED GOV sucked up all the money. Those dirty oil sheiks sent all their money to uncle sam.
Martin Armstrong reports that close to 100% of an airline ticket cost goes to GOV. Here is a long list of the taxes, Airlines For America | Government-Imposed Taxes on Air Transportationhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nP6f-1cqz5k
It starts out in 2011 and moves up in time.
The oil barons are disgusted with what has become of America, now a warfare-welfare state. They are going to crash it all down to stop both emerging socialism and endless war. They also plan to take down the rotten financial system.
FED GOV is clearly just a criminal enterprise. They have no qualms about killing off the populace to make a buck. While the bankers are crooks FED GOV writes the laws and is empowered to be the biggest crooks.

Oil to move down

Oil profits are the key to keeping FED GOV alive. We aren't burning it so, we have to store it.
"U.S. crude oil stocks increased by a remarkable 10.4 mmb in the week ending February 26, the largest addition since early April 2015. That brought inventories to an astonishing 162 mmb more than the 2010-2014 average and 74 mmb above the bloated levels of 2015 (Figure 2)."
