MAX KEISER & ALEX JONES talk about the IMPLODING BOND MARKET
The BOND IMPLOSION Has Officially BEGUN - Bond Bubble is about to Burst
Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is on the way out the door, but the
consequences of the bond bubble that he has helped to create will stay
with us for a very, very long time. During Bernanke's tenure, interest
rates on U.S. Treasuries have fallen to record lows. This has enabled
the U.S. government to pile up an extraordinary amount of debt. During
his tenure we have also seen mortgage rates fall to record lows. All of
this has helped to spur economic activity in the short-term, but what
happens when interest rates start going back to normal? If the average
rate of interest on U.S. government debt rises to just 6 percent, the
U.S. government will suddenly be paying out a trillion dollars a year
just in interest on the national debt. And remember, there have been
times in the past when the average rate of interest on U.S. government
debt has been much higher than that. In addition, when the U.S.
government starts having to pay more to borrow money so will everyone
else. What will that do to home sales and car sales? And of course we
all remember what happened to adjustable rate mortgages when interest
rates started to rise just prior to the last recession. We have gotten
ourselves into a position where the U.S. economy simply cannot afford
for interest rates to go up. We have become addicted to the cheap money
made available by a grossly distorted financial system, and we have Ben
Bernanke to thank for that. The Federal Reserve is at the very heart
of the economic problems that we are facing in America, and this time is
certainly no exception.
This week Barack Obama publicly praised
Ben Bernanke and stated that Bernanke has "already stayed a lot longer
than he wanted" as Chairman of the Federal Reserve. Bernanke's term
ends on January 31st, but many observers believe that he could leave
even sooner than that. Bernanke appears to be tired of the job and
eager to move on.
So who would replace him? Well, the mainstream
media is making it sound like the appointment of Janet Yellen is
already a forgone conclusion. She would be the first woman ever to
chair the Federal Reserve, and her philosophy is that a little bit of
inflation is good for an economy. It seems likely that she would
continue to take us down the path that Bernanke has taken us.
But
is it a fundamentally sound path? Keeping interest rates pressed to
the floor and wildly printing money may be producing some positive
results in the short-term, but the crazy bubble that this is creating
will burst at some point. In fact, the director of financial stability
for the Bank of England, Andy Haldane, recently admitted that the
central bankers have "intentionally blown the biggest government bond
bubble in history" and he warned about what might happen once it ends...

silver bullion price crash Posted below is a chart that demonstrates
how interest rates on 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds have fallen over the
last several decades. This has helped to fuel the false prosperity that
we have been enjoying, but there is no way that the U.S. government
should have been able to borrow money so cheaply. This bubble that we
are living in now is setting the stage for a very, very painful
adjustment... Gold GOFO rates turn negative for first time since Lehman

Hedge offers evidence of unusual strain in the gold market, the most
strain in five years. Zero Hedge speculates that the strain may arise
from:
"-- An ETF-induced repricing of paper and physical gold.
"-- Ongoing deliverable concerns and/or shortages involving one (JPM) or more Comex gold members.
"-- Liquidations in the paper gold market.
"-- A shortage of physical gold for a non-bullion bank market participant.
"-- A major fund unwinding a futures pair trade involving at least one gold leasing leg.
"-- An ongoing bullion bank failure with or without an associated allocated gold bank "run."

Hedge's commentary is headlined "A Historic Inversion: Gold GOFO Rates
Turn Negative for the First Time Since Lehman" and it's posted here:
The real problem here is that most do not accept that is over they function on a repair mode as if the issue can be fix. from Max kaiser, to Max fabber, Gerald Celente, etc to Bernanke, FMI, IMF, WORLD BANK, ECB. they all have one thing in mind repair tools, there is no repair tools, the system has collapse it cannot, it cannot be repair no matter what you do. even wars will not bring the system afloat. however these economist are not entirely to blame, they might lack the information to understand and create a new system, moreover they have being instructed by universities and economical professors to function on one particular way, unfortunately the environment has change and the way they were instructed is no longer valid. So we find financiers facing a problem they cant understand. Additional elements are necessary to able financiers to grasp the totally of the current reality, something most of them have not quite acknowledge. Once they understand they face a problem they cannot solve, them those that can be of help are able to be lesson to, those that were on the mad side of finances, can them have a voice, and only them things will improve. The new world demands a new form of economy that is as well balance with the spiritual and ecological mind, and behaviour, this has nothing to do with wind farms, and eco-tax, or cheap ethanol energy, it has to do with how you think, how you configure your perception, how you get information discerned and send information, the problem is mental, nor physical, is not a question of matter, but rather a question of non matter. concepts, mind, thoughts, reasoning, logic. This is precisely what is lacking, is more like A cave men walking around with A smart phones, this is what society is now in many ways. can a cave men understand what is going on in Egypt, certainly not even if he's got an smartphone on his hand, he is lost, today the same Egyptians are as lost as Bernanke. therefore it is discernment perception, wisdom, that is needed, wise men for a decaying world those are the tools the planet needs, not financiers or religious priest that apply what history has said, but some that can see true the veils of history and perceive the actual. however the past does gives many clues but them once again they must be interpreted properly to be correctly understood.
