Verfall des Hegemon USA

Das ist sehr aufschußreich, gilt sicher nicht nur für die Amis: Wenn es zu lange zu gut geht, werden Menschen leichtsinnig, Sparrate sinkt etc. Die Folgen: Unausweichlich... Guter Chart.

"Elliott Wave International recently put together a chart (click here or on the chart to watch the accompanying video) that illustrates a recurring theme of financial bubbles: When good times have gone on for a sufficiently long time, people forget that it can be any other way and start behaving as if they’re bulletproof. They stop saving, for instance, because they’ll always have their job and their stocks will always go up.
Then comes the inevitable bust..."

Zitat von LuckyFriday

Habe ich etwas verpasst? Höre noch nichts pfeiffen....

Nein, es war so gemeint, daß sie immer noch pusten. 1929 kennt von denen keiner...
Bis es dann womöglich peng macht....

Oder die Luft geht langsamer heraus. Wie auch immer "irrational exuberance" oder so.

Aktuelle Gallup Umfrage: Stimmung zur US Wirtschaft soi tief wie vor 2 schweren Markteinbrüchen....

"November 22 (King World News) – I noticed this poll from Gallup last night that was posted Monday and while it’s a snapshot of great comfort with the current state of the US economy on the part of the people surveyed, we can’t help but worry about what happened after the prior two times it reached current levels...

This is the third time it has appeared, already breaking the low from 2007 and closing in on the record low set in 1999. It is yet another indicator that the party which continues to take place in many global stock markets will end in tears."

David Stockman mit vernichtender Kritik, vollkommenem Verriß der geplanten Steuersenkung durch Trump in Wonderland, sehr lesenswert mit zahlreichen Rechenbeispielen.

Wonderland wird seine Schulden weiter extrem aufblähen, Steuersenkungen würden im wesentlichen nur den 1 - 10 an der Börse Beteiligten zugute kommen. Das geplante hohe GDP Wachstum ist offenkundig illusionär und unerreichbar, sh.Chart...

"On a honestly reckoned basis (counting debt service and eliminating budget gimmicks), however, it would add $2.2 trillion of new debt over the next decade on top of the $12 trillion already built-in under current policy. Accordingly, the Senate version of Trumpite "tax reform" would accelerate the public debt toward $35 trillion by 2027 or 140% of GDP....

The bottom line is $30 trillion of extra GDP over the coming decade or nearly 23% more than would be generated by the actual growth rate (blue line) during the last decade....

In fact, the effective corporate tax rate in the U.S. is about 20%, not 35% and has been declining for decades. In part 2, we will demonstrate why any corporate rate reduction that is actually legislated---and we continue to doubt any tax bill at all can be enacted---will have virtually no impact on jobs. Under current Fed policy and the financial engineering it induces in the corporate C-suites, virtually all the tax savings will be flushed back into the casino as stock buybacks, LBOs and increased dividend payouts..."

Sehr informativ. Die offziell gepflegten Mythen der Situation der Ölförderung der USA werden relativiert. Eine Anzahl sehenswerter Charts und Grafiken
Auch Überlegungen zur Ölpreisentwicklung und US Wirtschaft.

"--- Tight oil production levels, crude oil quality and U.S. refinery blending needs are behind the WTI discount to Brent price.
--- Most U.S.refineries are designed for international grades of oil like rent which is heavier and contains more sulfur than WTI.
--- The U.S. has had a surplus of light sweet oil since the tight oil boom began,and the Brent-WTI spread reached almost $30/barrel in September 2011 as a result.
--- Middle East fear premium has been an important factor since 2017.

"Is Washington the Most Corrupt Government in History?"

Dr. Paul Craig Roberts stellt dies höchst brisant als Frage. Roberts klagt z.B. an, daß echte Skandale um Hillary Clinton nicht verfolgt werden im Gegensatz zum "Fake Scandal Russiagate". Die Anrwort liefert er selbst: Die Macht des "military/security complex", sprich des Deep State.
R. mit eine Anzahl Links auch zu anderen politischen Skandalen...

Bei alledem drängt sich die Frage auf, wo in Deutschland auch nur ein profilierter Politiker auftritt, der ähnliche Fragen zu den schwersten Rechtsbrüchen und Mißachtung der Demokratie von Merkel und ihrer Vasallen stellt. [Blockierte Grafik: http://www.goldseiten-forum.com/wcf/images/smilies/sad.png]

"Why are the clearly false charges against Trump being investigated and the clearly true charges against Hillary not being investigated? The answer is that Hillary with her hostility toward Russia and her denunciation of Russian President Putin as the “New Hitler” is not a threat to the budget and power of the US military/security complex, while Trump’s aim of normalizing relations with Russia would deprive the military/security complex of the “enemy” it requires to justify its massive budget and power.....

Washington’s self-serving control over explanations has removed Americans from reality and made them slaves to fake news.

So, how does democracy function when voters have no reliable information and, instead, are led into the agendas of the rulers by orchestrated events and fake news?
Where is there any evidence that the United States is a functioning democracy?"

John Willams / Shadow Stats wie üblich mit extremen Differenzen zur (Lügen)Statistik der Amis:

"December 13th, 2017
• Unable to Escape 2008, FOMC Boosted Rates a Quarter-Point, Nonetheless, Amidst Fed Projections of Lower Unemployment and a Stronger GDP
• Yet, Fundamentals Still Point to a Weaker Economy as Fed Chair Janet Yellen Described the Economic Outlook as "Highly Uncertain"
• Prospects for U.S. Economic and Financial-Market Activity Continued to Darken; Faltering Real Consumer Credit and Earnings Do Not Support the
Purported Boom...
• November 2017 CPI-U Monthly Inflation Jumped by 0.39% (Was 0.11%) Pulling Annual CPI-U Inflation Higher to 2.20% (Was 2.04%), with CPI-W at 2.32% (Was 2.06%) and ShadowStats at 9.9% (Was 9.8%)."

No. 925: November CPI and PPI Inflation, FOMC
