As U.S. equity markets have mounted a huge, phony “rally” based on nothing but hot air from the propaganda-machine and Plunge Protection Team manipulation, one fact has seemed to defy explanation to myself and many other commentators. How have these Manipulators been able to push U.S. markets this far above any rational valuations
With another report out today showing that “insider selling” has continued to accelerate throughout this entire “rally”, the people who know these companies the best are demonstrating in the clearest possible terms how grossly inflated U.S. equity valuations have become.
Meanwhile, the hard data on the U.S. economy (i.e. numbers which can’t be falsified) show that the economy continues to plummet downward. Thus, the “big picture” confirms the signal which insider-selling has sent to markets.
I, and many other commentators have made continual, disparaging references to “market sheep”, who have apparently allowed themselves to be herded and directed effortlessly by the PPT. Yet, at the same time, we were all flabbergasted that these huge equity markets could be so completely dominated by this “herd mentality”.
What finally struck me over the weekend is that the answer has been sitting right in front of my nose all this time. I have referred on many occasions to Chris Martenson’s stunning analysis/presentation which he has titled the “Crash Course”. Among the nuggets of valuable data was a breakdown on the disgusting wealth-distribution numbers for the U.S. population.
With 80% of the U.S. population holding only a minute 15% of total wealth, this means that just 20% of the U.S. population holds 85% of all wealth. However, the even more shocking numbers are the obscene pools of wealth held by the wealthiest 1% of U.S. society. This microscopic segment of U.S. society holds 35% of all wealth, and even more stunningly, they hold 55% of all stock.
This is so typical of the Democrats. They openly illustrate how they really only like “disrupters” whom they agree with. Oh and the Democrats still haven’t gotten us out of Iraq or Afghanistan. I’m so tired of these litany of videos where democrats say one thing and (deceitfully want to) do something entirely different. The GOP has been punished because of their mistakes, now we need the MSM to do their job and call the Dems out for their lies, and continual hypocrisy and double statements. They lie at every turn now. I am to the point now to where I instantly look at Obama’s ulterior motives instead of what he says, because what he says doesn’t mean shit.
Chris Matthews hostile interview fail, actually turns into a BRILLIANT example of the growing libertarian movement across this country.
This week we are going to have a lot playing out. Notice how the PEOPLE are diverging from the MSM and our elected “LEADERS”. In almost every poll, they disagree with the mainstream media sentiment which is further fomenting the anger as we not only distrust our leaders, the media but we feel like they are ignoring us completely. Why? Because they know better. They are smarter, of course!
- Most Voters Say Congress Listens To Leaders (73%) More Than Constituents (14%)
- GOP Congressman Booed for Telling People to Turn Off Glenn Beck
- 54% oppose more money for cash for clunkers
- Gallup Finds – Economy Over Energy Policies
- Deficit grew by $181 billion in July
- Pelosi/Hoyer call freedom of speech, un-american
- Banks make 38 billion in overdraft fees
- Governors oppose DoD emergency powers
- Consumer, Celebrity Bankruptcies May Hit 1.4 Million
Again, in almost every area we see the will of the people being ignored or outright attacked as “uninformed, or stupid”. It won’t take long for this to turn ugly in this environment of future high inflation, high joblessness, bankruptcy and foreclosure explosions.
We may well be witnessing the end of our Republic, and unfortunately the media and congress are pushing it along as fast as they can.
Great video illustrating the absurdity of what’s going on with the media and democrat party, trying to silence dissent which was PATRIOTIC under Bush.
