YOUR BEST SOURCE FOR THE UNBIASED MARKET COMMENTARY YOU WON'T GET FROM WALL STREET
by Tom Essaye
Wednesday, September 19, 2012 at 7:30am
Tom Essaye
By now you're probably aware of the Federal Reserve Bank's surprising and aggressive announcement last Thursday: Unlimited accommodation until the jobs market improves. This was clearly bullish for stocks, as a big rally occurred after the announcement. Additionally, the U.S. dollar index was predictably weak, falling to yet another new low.
The U.S. dollar is trending lower because the Fed is aggressively easing monetary policy and will continue to do so. But this brings up an interesting and potentially dangerous problem for the global economy ...
As surprising as it may be, the U.S. actually has one of the best economies in the world from a growth perspective. Yet the Fed just shifted its desire to reflate the economy, at the expense of the U.S. dollar, into overdrive. That's good for the U.S. But it's a problem for Japan, Europe, and China.
Fiscal Cliff Fears Reaching Fever Pitch!
Fear that the fiscal cliff our nation is rushing towards could crush our fragile economy and stock market is now reaching fever pitch.
The White House released a breakdown of the spending cuts, accusing congressional Republicans of blocking a deal. Mitt Romney returned the favor, saying, "... instead of seeking bipartisan solutions, President Obama is passively allowing us to go over a fiscal cliff."

Since their currencies rise when the U.S. dollar falls, their exports get more expensive for the good ol' American consumer. In each region, falling exports to the U.S. will further hamper their respective economic recoveries — especially in the case of Japan, where exporters desperately want a cheaper yen.
The Race to the Bottom
The point is that the Fed's move has the potential to finally kick off what I, and others, have been calling the "currency race to the bottom" where there is coordinated, global devaluation of major currencies in an effort to boost economies and exports.
It's Time for YOU to Profit from Washington's Bank Bailouts!
Yes, it sounds completely crazy. But my colleague and I have discovered a special group of "government bailout contracts" that were created during the height of the financial crisis.
These contrarian investments are not stocks, bonds, options, or preferred shares. In fact, they were never even meant to be sold to the public!
But because of a massive government screw-up, you can buy them right now in your regular brokerage account. And I think they could hand you gains of 63.6%, 102.8%, or even 350.7% in 2012.

On cue, last Friday the Japanese Finance Minister Jun Azumi strongly hinted that the Bank of Japan may intervene to curb the yen's rise against the dollar. What's more, over the weekend the Chinese voiced displeasure with the Fed's move.
If this currency "race" gains momentum, keep this in mind: All currencies will fall in relation to hard assets, even if they rally versus their major trading partners.
This should tell you that a potentially significant trend of competitive devaluation in the currency markets is in the making, which is indeed reason to have hard asset exposure in your portfolio.

For instance, as you can see in the chart below, from December 31, 2010, until September 17, 2012, gold rose from $1,421 to $1,763. At the same time, the U.S. dollar, the yen, the euro, and the pound all drifted lower.
The point is again to look towards hard assets as they'll tell you the true value of a currency based on purchasing power, not based on another falling currency.
One way you can play this trend is with the Market Vectors Hard Asset Producers ETF (HAP). This ETF is comprised of companies that find and produce hard assets and commodities ... things that should rise in value, even as global currencies potentially fall.
Best,

House Speaker: No Fiscal Cliff Deal



---------- Forwarded message ----------

Subject: House Speaker: No Fiscal Cliff Deal




Moneynews.com


Dear Moneynews Reader:
Please find below a special message from our sponsor, Weiss, Inc. They have some important information to share with you. Thank you.
Moneynews.com

House Speaker Boehner:
"No Confidence" a Fiscal Cliff Deal Can Be Reached!
Dear Reader,
For weeks now, Weiss Research has been reporting it's highly unlikely that our sharply divided Congress could find a way to delay or cancel ANY of the tax hikes or spending cuts now scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2013.
This week, Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH) seemed to endorse that view by stating, "I'm not confident at all" that any deal can be reached.
The Republican leader went on to blame Democrats — both in the Senate and the White House — for the failure of leadership:
"The House has done its job on both the sequester and on the looming tax hike that will cost our economy 700,000 jobs."
"The Senate at some point has to act. And on both of these, where's the president, where's the leadership?"
— House Speaker John Boehner
Meanwhile, Politico.com was even more stinging in its criticism of BOTH parties' abject failure in addressing this crisis:
"President Barack Obama wants to fix the debt problem and stop the nation from falling off a fiscal cliff.
"So does Mitt Romney. And John Boehner. And Paul Ryan. And Joe Biden, too.
"They all said as much at the Republican and Democratic national conventions and accused their opponents of lacking the guts to pick a plan and make it stick.
"So it would make sense that while they were talking, their aides and allies were meeting behind the scenes to steer away from that fast-approaching cliff, right?
"Wrong. The truth is that none of the top leaders or their aides are in serious negotiations."
— Politico.com
And never forget: Even if by some miracle, the Republicans and Democrats were able to delay SOME of the tax hikes and spending cuts ...
FIVE NEW Obamacare taxes will take effect on New Year's Day in any case ...
AND the nearly $1 trillion per year of stimulus spending that has kept the U.S. economy from collapsing over the past four years will NOT be spent in 2013.
NO WONDER the International Monetary Fund ... the U.S. Congressional Budget Office ... the Federal Reserve and many other authorities are now warning that one of the deadliest financial crises in U.S. history is set to level the U.S. economy and stock market.
NO WONDER Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke warns it will cause America to plunge off a "fiscal cliff". And why JP Morgan says that, barring a miracle in Washington, America is about to fall "head first into the fiscal meat grinder."

Fiscal Cliff' ... an Illusion or Reality?

Subject: 'Fiscal Cliff' ... an Illusion or Reality?
To: jorgeus.george@gmail.com



Editor's note: With the Republican Convention wrapped up, the Democrats set to take the stage next week and the election only two months away, we felt it necessary to devote this week's column to a topic the politicians choose to ignore. And we can't think of a stronger voice to tell it than that of Charles Goyette.
You might know Charles from his appearances on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, CNBC and Fox Business Channel, or from his books "The Dollar Meltdown: Surviving the Impending Currency Crisis with Gold, Oil, and Other Unconventional Investments" and "Red and Blue and Broke All Over: Restoring America's Free Economy."
So be sure to read on for a timely look at where our country is heading if things don't change ... and soon. — Rudy

'Fiscal Cliff' ...
an Illusion or Reality?

by Charles Goyette
Dear Subscriber,
Rudy Martin
We do get these buzz phrases about the economy, don't we? A special jargon of the financial press and the commentariat, shorthand expressions intended to suggest the speaker has an especially intimate understanding of economic events.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke gave a little miracle-grow boost to the old expression "green shoots" on "60 Minutes" in 2009, as he described signs of a recovery. And once he dropped the phrase, Scott Pelley was right there to pick up on it.
"Do you see green shoots?" Pelley asked.
"I do. I do see green shoots," allowed the chairman.
Bernanke must have been seeing things. That was over three years ago, but Depression-era levels of unemployment persist, the latest numbers reveal that 46.5 million Americans are on food stamps (up from 28 million at the start of the recession), and "60 Minutes" recently re-ran a story about all the schoolchildren who are living in cars with their families and brushing their teeth in the gas station at night before they go to sleep in the parking lot.
It Isn't the First Time
Bernanke has Suffered Illusions!

In early 2007, just when the mortgage meltdown was getting going, he said the subprime market appeared to be "contained."
Even more overused than "green shoots" is the expression "headwinds." It is way past its trendy lifespan. But President Obama, seeking to lower expectations for the economy before the election, recently announced that "We're going to have some continued headwinds over the next several months."
These nature metaphors for the economy spread like, well, wildfire. The latest, unavoidable in the financial world, is "fiscal cliff."

Urgent Reminder: Part II
of Fiscal Cliff Briefing Online NOW!
In this all-important briefing Weiss Research analyst Mike Larson reveals how this crisis will shake our economy down to its very foundation ... send unemployment skyrocketing ... and cause one of the bloodiest stock market slaughters ever seen.
More importantly, he also shows you how to make sure you and your loved ones are NOT among the victims of this great fiscal catastrophe ... how to protect your bank accounts, insurance policies, and your 401(k) retirement accounts ... and more!
Click here to watch this ground-breaking event.
But This Is NO Illusion!
The fiscal cliff is the expiration of the Bush tax cuts at year-end, just as $110 billion in automatic defense and domestic spending cuts — part of the 2011 debt ceiling increase package — kick in with the New Year. About that time, the federal statutory debt ceiling of $16.3 trillion will be breached as well.
Of course you can't expect to see these issues met in advance ...
After all, it's an election year. The Republican convention is over, and then next week it's the Democrats' turn to get together. So you can expect the presidential campaign to crowd out everything else until the election on November 6. And then the parties start juggling for political advantage for the next election cycle.
So the delays and temporary measures that we have come to expect from legislators will be the rule of the day, because all they will do is ...

Extend and Pretend
Extend the tax cut for a short period. Kick the can down the road on spending cuts. Roll out all the old accounting gimmicks we've seen before to put off reality as long as possible when the debt ceiling is breached. Patch together temporary extensions in the debt ceiling as the debates and standstills continue.
It is true that the so-called "fiscal cliff" is the convergence of a lot of things at the same time. But don't for a minute think that Washington can do anything to keep us from going over the economic edge and plunging into the abyss below.
Because we have already gone over the cliff. One simple metric makes it clear ...
In July the government released the gross domestic product numbers for the second quarter of 2012. The part of the story that didn't make the evening news is this: The federal government added $2.33 in debt for every $1 increase in GDP.
The headwinds of debt have long since blown away the green shoots of growth. We don't have to wait for the end of the year. We have already gone over the fiscal cliff.
For Your Freedom & Prosperity,
Charles
P.S. No matter what changes are in store for our country, our future prosperity lies squarely in our own hands. And one of the best places right now to do just that is by playing the rapid expansion of key emerging markets ... from the safety and familiarity of the U.S. stock exchanges.
