In the video below I discuss how the US economy is flatlining, and how the Federal Reserve in creating a financial Frankenstein is stuck.
I also talk about how Janet Yellen must be sweating profusely on the continued missing of her inflation target despite melting the dollar.
I address the how the current Geo-political events are directly affecting the markets...
Gregory Mannarino @marketreport
The clown show just keeps rolling down the tracks. If they would actually try to unwind their balance sheet it would force rates to raise and all hell would break lose. The pressure the public is facing b/c of our dead economy coupled with the weakening dollar and stagnant wages is at the precipice of really starting to be felt by many in this country. The cheap money and credit policies of the Fed is them simply trying to keep the charade going as long as they can. If they can't keep the debt train going, the train goes off the tracks. Do we see 40 year mortgages? 10-12 year auto loans? Helicopter money in the form of a living wage? The zombie apocalypse is unfortunately alive and well.

Hey Greg, one of the other items I am following is UST being held by the Fed. As of 8/2 it shows 2,465,195M being held which is a very significant increase since the beginning of the year. I have not done the full spreadsheet on this so this part of what I will say next is not quotable. It appears that the primary buyer of all new treasuries being issued by the Treasury is the Fed, which means the rally in bonds is being driven by an 'expansion' of the Fed balance sheet. How in the heck can they say they want to normalize if they are expanding? Go figure! Anyways, I went short at 2490 so I am feeling no pain. I am expecting a healthy pull-back to 2100 before we get a bounce, but that is IMHO as we may get another PPT rescue.

I do not understand what central banks like the Fed are thinking. Sure money printing goes to all sectors of the economy and we get investments. However, without proper interest rate signals we have mal-investment which usually leads to over-capacity, which leads to supply gluts which puts pressures on pricing. So you get a temporary sugar high but then the hangover is brutal.

As far as we "know"...Greg is still short SLV...which happens to be the "correct" trade...cept he doesn't know it yet. :-)

As a sidenote, if Greg did in fact crap out of his SLV short and then re-enters the short within 30 days he wiped out his ability to write off any loss he incurred because of I.R.S. tax loss rules for stock traders. He most definitely incurred major losses onthat short as he was telling us he was short even as SLV was trading near 15.50. If he did not have confidence in teh trade he should have never entered it in the first place. I am alos short (and losing BIGLY) SLV. I happen to like the short even better now. So I will simply add to it and even if my previous short ends up a loser I will then be able to write off the loss plus enjoy the gain on the new entry. Greg never discusses the rammifications of closing a loser and then getting back into the same trade if you are trading outside of a tax exempt trading account. And it is an important thing to consider so I figgerd I'd cover it.

Just go to my blog here and click on my "replies" list. My VIX blog is pretty far down my list so it will be easier to find my VIX short call by tracking my replies today. I did bump up my SLV and DUST blogs as I will be posting trades there today in all likelihood. Not sure if the VIX gets doneski today. I'd say there's 90% chance it won't happen today. There's a nonconfirmed low on SVXY (trades opposite UVXY) at $71...spot dead on. That "might be" the target for this move in SVXY.

Hitting "major" oversold right now but whatever the low is that leads to a little bounce...it won't be the "final" low.

The computers are now setting up the UVXY 39.54 high as teh final high that needs to be breached. The "best" way to play the coming rally is actually via a long position in IWM call options as it has the most upside (Russell 2000) of any of teh major indicies. I'll be spewing my long trade in IWM at my blog too.

That the federal reserve is stuck is by no means news. They have been painting themselves into a corner for a decade now. It's really just a matter of when.
I'm glad to hear you bring in the geopolitical landscape into your discussion. Sure, you can't know events ahead of time, but you can anticipate them based on analysis. I too am going to be making a move more towards the sidelines.
Good call on continuing to accumulate silver (the stuff you can hold in your hands) in this environment.

I share your belief about the balance sheet, but not about inflation.
However, I remember what Lindsey Williams said about the elites' telling you in front their future actions, so they may reduce it slightly after all, however it does not bode well with their statements about inflation.
I am still with you with your previous call on North Korea's influence on markets.
They are controlled and rigged by the Federal Reserve for the corporate and private powers that it supports.
If NK will cause a significant correction, it will only be if "The Powers That Should not Be" reversed their position, and they will only do so if they know they get backed up by the Federal Reserve, which means hawkish Fed.
