All Hell Is Breaking Loose In Energy Markets

All Hell Is Breaking Loose In Energy Markets


by Tyler Durden
Tuesday, Sep 28, 2021 - 04:11 AM

By now readers are well aware that Europe is suffering from a historic gas crisis, one which according to Rabobank is now even more extreme than the US oil price shock.

And unfortunately for Europe's population, with every passing day - and to a lesser extent hedge funds such as Statar Capital which suffered a big loss in the past few days - it's only getting worse. As Bloomberg's Javier Blas notes today, both UK NBP and Dutch TTF natural gas benchmarks have closed the day at their highest ever settlement level, up ~11% on the day (to a closing price equal to more than $26 per mBtu).

Controlled Demolition of the Markets, Dollar, Next Treasuries, Then Stocks – Gold, Silver and PM Stocks to Soar

Saturday, January 27, 2018 9:07
 
By: Clive Maund  /  GoldSeek
What we are about to witness in the markets will be similar to watching a gigantic controlled demolition, like say the World Trade Center controlled demolition in NYC. The initial charge that starts the whole sequence of momentous events is the dollar breakdown of recent days. This was triggered by the imposition of destructive trade tariffs by the Trump Administration who then made it plain they were happy to see the dollar drop to make US exports more competitive. Actions have consequences, and a falling dollar will make dollar denominated investments less attractive, like the Treasuries, which the US depends on to funnel the rest of the world’s wealth into its coffers – the deal has always been this: the US prints up unlimited quantities of dollars and Treasuries, created electronically with a few keystrokes, and then exchanges them for goods and services from the rest of the world, with most of the inflationary consequences of this pushed off onto the rest of the world. Other countries around the world have until now gone along with this scam, because if they don’t they get cut off from the SWIFT system, subjected to punitive sanctions or even invaded, or a combination of the three.
So, the sequence of events in this controlled demolition in a nutshell is this – the dollar drops hard, Treasuries, which are already very close to breaking down from their long-term uptrend, tank, and interest rates skyrocket. The stockmarket, already massively overstretched, implodes. The speculative urban Real Estate market crashes and gold and silver soar as a safehaven, amplified by acute shortage of physical, most of which now resides in vaults in China. Gold and silver miners, already streamlined and efficient, stand to make fortunes as gold and silver prices race far above their respective AISC (all in sustaining cost) breakeven levels, and gold and silver stocks skyrocket. When all this happens we can expect the resulting economic privation in the US to send the drug-addled population “loco”, whereupon they will find themselves confronting a police force armed to the teeth with military equipment, and with the legal backing to “do whatever is necessary” afforded by the provisions of the Patriot Acts, and rioters will find that there is practically unlimited accommodation available for them in the extensive network of FEMA camps, where they will have plenty of time to read the detailed provisions of the Patriot Acts, if they can get their hands on a copy, unless of course, they are put to work, perhaps after being detoxed.
Let’s now look at this sequence of impending market events on the charts. We start with the dollar, which has just broken down from a giant 3-year long Bullhorn Top or Broadening Formation. The dollar’s immediate downside target following this clear breakdown is the 80 area on the index. A drop of this magnitude is huge and will have profound repercussions, not least on the Treasury market, because there will be little motivation to invest in a country whose currency is plunging. This looks set to occur regardless of any bounce to alleviate the short-term oversold condition.

As Markets Roar American Poverty Soars

 
If you pay attention to the news you’ll hear all about great corporate earnings, the unbelievable stock market rally, the bitcoin hysteria, and improving jobless numbers. Somehow, though, all of this information and good times reporting belies the truth; and below the radar of such an apparent boom is the sad reality that the United States is suffering from crushing poverty unlike anything we’ve seen in generations.
Alongside all of this is an unprecedented division taking place right now, as the world’s wealthiest people are seeing their wealth explode. They are calling it the new Gilded Age, and at present the distribution of wealth in America has already exceeded the imbalance which preceded the French Revolution.
The United States Census Bureau reports that the poverty rate in America for 2016 was 12.7%, meaning some 41 million people live below the poverty line in the world’s richest country. This is punctuated by a wave of homelessness, especially on the West Coast, fueled by astronomical housing and rent prices. Furthermore, in a ‘new milestone,’ household debt in the U.S. topped $13 trillion in 2017, an incredible number.
As reported by The Guardian, something is changing in America. Something is different about our attitude towards the homeless and towards those who are down on their luck. As a society we seem to find it easier to look away.
That cruel streak – the violence of looking away – has been a feature of American life since the nation’s founding. The casting off the yoke of overweening government (the British monarchy) came to be equated in the minds of many Americans with states’ rights and the individualistic idea of making it on your own – a view that is fine for those fortunate enough to do so, less happy if you’re born on the wrong side of the tracks.
Countering that has been the conviction that society must protect its own against the vagaries of hunger or unemployment that informed Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal and the Great Society of Lyndon Johnson. But in recent times the prevailing winds have blown strongly in the “you’re on your own, buddy” direction. Ronald Reagan set the trend with his 1980s tax cuts, followed by Bill Clinton, whose 1996 decision to scrap welfare payments for low-income families is still punishing millions of Americans.
The cumulative attack has left struggling families, including the 15 million children who are officially in poverty, with dramatically less support than in any other industrialized economy. Now they face perhaps the greatest threat of all.” [Source]
Couple this with the growing tendency of government to crack down and stop citizen-led efforts to help the homeless with food and shelter, and you have a certain institutional callousness developing. This defies the traditional American spirit and can only take us further from national unity.

Final Thoughts

For now the markets are raging – and for those who are on the winning side of this cosmic coin toss, life is good at the moment. This kind of economic prosperity cannot last, though, because it is fake, generated by a corrupt banking and financial system that knows just how to fudge the numbers to create an illusion of prosperity which serves well those in position to take advantage of it.

This rising inequality and the delusion of endless economic expansion combined with the change in attitude towards those less fortunate is a recipe for disaster, and something to watch for in the coming year.

Canadian Housing Markets Continue To Diverge

Submitted by IWB, on September 14th, 2016
 
Canadian housing markets continue to diverge with large price gains in Toronto (+2.8%) and Vancouver (+1.7%) driving Canada’s hottest markets even higher throughout August. The new tax imposed on foreign buyers in BC may have had some effect in August as the monthly price increase in Vancouver was below 2% for the first time in seven months. In contrast market conditions in Toronto are the tightest in at least 14 years as the number of listed houses for sale represent just 1.1 months of sales. See the following charts from National Bank:
Right now the market hates Canadian housing which you can see in the short interest on Canadian banks. The chart below shows short positions are elevated. Long term trends like the one in Canadian housing don’t usually end when everyone’s expecting it.

BREXIT Wins: Government Resigns,

EU Convulses, Gold Soars, Markets Panic, People Prevail, NWO Shocked

No One Really Knows Where This Is All Going
Except To A Collapse of Civilization
As We Know It


brexitfade

Global Economic & Financial System
Faces Greatest Challenges Ever!

Trigger Point for the Super Shemitah

Something so HUGE just happened it even defied the bookmakers in London.
The bookies never get it wrong; their odds are virtually always spot on.
A victorious BREXIT just took the United Kingdom, the European Union and the rest of the world by storm … a Superstorm of truly biblical proportions.
For those who are not familiar with the phenomenon known as the Super Shemitah, you will be very soon.  It’s actually about many different things, but especially about the release of indebtedness.  The entire planetary civilization is about to experience an unprecedented and unparalleled liberation from debt slavery.

Trigger Point for the Super Shemitah 

Make no mistake about it, the defining moment of 2016, of the decade, and of the millennium has just occurred.  With the departure of Great Britain from the European Union (EU), the entire EU project will undoubtedly crash and burn. France has already called for their own referendum regarding continued EU membership.  The French are like the British, only on steroids where it concerns getting the eff out of the disastrous EU.  So are the Dutch.  Hence, it is easy to see where all of this is rapidly going.
Back to the Super Shemitah.  Now that the BREXIT genie is out of the bottle, there is no putting it back in.  The original financial architects and social engineers of the European Union probably did not know what they were doing when they foisted the Treaty of Rome on the unsuspecting back in the last century.  They certainly did not accurately foresee the utter catastrophe that the Maastricht Treaty, which came into force on 1 November 1993, would cause throughout Europe and around the world in 2016.  That year — 1993 — was effectively the beginning of the single most disastrous project in modern history.  For it served to set up the world for BREXIT, the trigger point for the collapse of the Global Economic & Financial System (GE&FS).
There is simply no stopping the cataclysmic events which are inevitable in the year of the Super Shemitah.  Many have scorned and snickered at the notion of such a worldwide apocalyptic event.  Now they will see firsthand what such an earth-shaking series of events can do to the entire planetary civilization.  The repercussions will be so far-reaching and ramifications so profound as to re-arrange nations and societies everywhere.  The following articles lay bare exactly what is coming around the corner.

Domino Effect

Perhaps the single greatest effect from today’s BREXIT victory will be the unstoppable domino effect which has already been triggered.  Virtually all of the citizenries of the EU nations have been denied referendums on the membership issue.  When they have taken place, they were clearly fixed by the NWO controllers.  For years there has been a pent-up frustration within the populace that has been waiting to explode.  Welcome to the Europe Summer!
eu-vlajky-domino-ilu

Europe Summer

Everyone has heard about the fake Arab Spring by now.  Whereas that was a completely fabricated series of CIA-coordinated revolutions throughout the Middle East, the world is now about to witness the Europe Summer.  Regardless of the torrential rains that are falling all over the continent, it’s about to get hot … very hot.  The people of every country in Europe have the inviolable right to decide their respective destinies.  They have been consistently denied that right by a bunch of despotic Eurocrats in Brussels. That’s all about to change quite quickly.
The southern tier of Europe, especially Greece, has suffered terribly under the heel of the EU tyranny.  Italy, Spain and Portugal have been treated like the step-children of an overbearing EU dictatorship. The bullies in Brussels have bribed and blackmailed, bullied and browbeat those vulnerable countries into obsequious submission.  Time and again, the autocratic agents of the NWO have foisted economic regimens and financial regimes on nations which did not want them and could not afford them.  The realities of such disaster capitalism were always the same – extreme financial hardship and economic contraction.
The Europe Summer is here and the people will be heard like never before.  Whereas Greece is the real Achilles’ heel, Italy has the size and heft to take down the whole European Union project, once and for all. The Italians, in particular, have the will to do just that.  Spain, too, has the wherewithal and motivation to support Italy in its quest to reclaim its national sovereignty.  Likewise, there are those Central and Eastern European countries that are also aching to take back their power, especially to maintain their territorial integrity which has been seriously compromised.

Today’s Headlines Tell The Real Story

Conclusion

Truly, this is the day that we have all been waiting for.  The beginning of the end is upon us.  RIGHT NOW!
There was always a mathematical certainty built into the current structure of the Global Economic & Financial System.  The very architecture was hardwired, just like the Twin Towers were hardwired for demolition when they were built, for its own free-fall collapse. The current System could only go on for so long.  And that end date is NOW.
The Senior editor of SOTN was an investment broker and financial consultant back in the 1980s.  It was quite clear then that this whole God-forsaken System was doomed.  The only surprise here is that it literally took 30 years to collapse.  Now that was an exercise in extreme competence with financial smoke and mirrors, fiscal sleight of hand, economic legerdemain and monetary manipulation.
The global money matrix, worldwide financial architecture and planetary economic landscape most closely resemble the proverbial House of Cards in the form of a Pyramid-Ponzi scheme superstructure built on quicksand.  Therefore, any sober and sane inhabitant of Planet Earth would only want to be rid of it all.  And that’s exactly what the FOUR HORSEMEN of 2012 and beyond, aim to do.  Trample it all under, so that we may finally be rid of it all.

There is one last thing to say about the awesome consequences which will surely manifest in the wake of the monumental BREXIT.

Reign Of The Almighty Dollar Is Over
