MARKET DIRECTION
The Nasdaq ends with a 6 point gain and the S&P 500 with a 3 point gain, while the DJIA
ends down 9 points. The major averages end the week sharply lower, with the Nasdaq
down 3.8%, DJIA down 2.8% and S&P 500 down 3.6%. U.S. equities markets traded higher
very early in the day, turned lower to start regular trading and eventually chopped in mixed
action Friday as financial reform legislation and downward revised GDP figure provided
mixed signals to investors weary of several losing sessions in a row. Earlier, lawmakers in
the U.S. House and Senate approved one of the most significant increases in financial
regulation since the Great Depression. The measure places new restrictions on the
Federal Reserve and the country's biggest lenders. Specifically, it requires "too-big-to-fail"
banks to implement capital and leverage limits and the government to perform ongoing
audits of the Fed's lending programs. Also, the bill includes the so-called "Volker rule,"
which limits speculative trading activities. Financials were broadly higher as a result of the
agreement over financial reform, which has been hanging over stocks for a while. Shares
of JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and Citigroup (C) helped lift financial shares after negotiators in
the U.S. Congress agreed on financial reforms in a bill that doesn't go all the way to a full
ban of hedge-fund and buyout-fund investing, reports Bloomberg. The Volker rule that
bans banks from investing in hedge funds and private-equity funds was eased to allow
banks to invest up to 3% of their capital, the report said. Meanwhile, an analyst note from
Nomura today suggested BP PLC (BP) needs to sell stock to assure counter-parties that it
has the financial health to withstand the growing cost of cleaning up the Gulf of Mexico oil
spill, according to a report on MarketWatch. The note says BP's roughly $15 billion of
current liquidity looks adequate to deal with committed acquisitions, spill clean-up costs
and the phased funding of the $20 billion escrow account for claims, but as the Macondo
well continues to leak oil, the company's funding could be threatened. The company gave
an update Friday, putting costs of cleaning up the spill now at $2.35 billion. Also, Oracle
Corp. (ORCL) was higher as it reported a 25% rise in fourth quarter profit, which marked
its first full quarter with Sun Microsystems as part of its group. The stock is seeing a
steady sell-off into the open, dropping from pre-market highs. Earnings per share reached
60 cents per share excluding one-time items while revenue increased by 39% to $9.5
billion. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had expected earnings per share of 54 cents
on revenue of $9.5 billion. There were some gains in drug stocks. Regulus Therapeutics
and Sanofi-Aventis (SNY) inked a global, strategic alliance to discover, develop, and
commercialize microRNA therapeutics. The alliance is potentially valued at over $750
million and includes a $25 million upfront fee paid by SNY to Regulus, a $10 million future
equity investment subject to valuation agreement, and annual research support for three
years with the option to extend two additional years. Shares of Merck (MRK) were higher
after a drug the company makes that is used to restore a steady heartbeat received a
recommendation for approval in Europe, the company said along with partner Cardiome
Pharma Corp. (CRME). The treatment, called Brinavess, would be used as a treatment for
the onset of atrial fibrillation in adults. In other financial news. Fidelity National
Information Services (FIS) rose on a New York Post story saying private-equity firm TPG
Capital is attempting to revive a buyout or restructuring deal for the payment services
provider, Bloomberg reports.

Russell: This Is One Of The Largest Tops In Stock Market History Richard Russell has
grown very vocally bearish in recent months. Earlier this year, Russell warned that
the stock market was once again becoming grossly overvalued despite its relentless
new highs. Pragmatic Capitalism June 24, 2010 Richard Russell has grown very
vocally bearish in recent months. Earlier this year, Russell warned that the stock
market was once again becoming grossly overvalued despite its relentless new
highs. He has maintained that the bear market never ended and that the world is far
too indebted to exit the bear market. He also believes the bear will not end until all
fiat currencies have failed. Although I disagree with him on many aspects of the
micro I agree with his larger macro outlook. This bear market is not over. The
secular bear market lives on. Mr. Russell thinks we might be on the verge of a
terrible collapse:
“We’re now in the process of building one of the largest tops in stock market
history. The result, I think, will be the most disastrous bear market since the ‘30s,
and maybe worse.
Question: “What could possibly be behind such a bear market?” you ask. “The stock
market is stirring up optimism on a weekly, if not daily basis, by not falling apart.”
Answer: This is the “rest” or “dead zone” I was talking about. Bear markets don’t
conclude in a day, a week or a month. Months will go by, often adding to the bulls’
optimism.I think the key element behind this great bear market will be the complete
destruction of all fiat currencies. This has been a long time coming. Fiat currencies
are “wealth” created by man. They are created without sacrifice, without labor,
without risk, and without sweat. Basically they are an immoral device, created by
secretive bankers. If you watch the figures carefully, you’ll note the subtle
deterioration. For instance, the advance-decline ratio, although up slightly for the
week, had a relatively weak performance with the Dow up several hundred points
over the course of the week. And we broke the trendline in May (see the chart below
showing the cumulative advance-decline line for NYSE Common Stock only, which
is what we publish in our figures (courtesy of DecisionPoint —
www.decisionpoint.com). The vertical lines are Jan 2008, Jan 2009 and Jan 2010 as
you move to the right on the chart. [CHART] My old friend, Bob Prechter, is talking
about Dow 400. I used to think this was an absurd joke. I no longer think it’s a joke.
The ultimate result will be a primary bear market shocking in duration and extent. …’

Why To Question the 2010 Stock Market Rally [Why To Question the 2010
Stock Market Rally – Web Site Archived with Charts Click Here - In the
past year, we've written a lot about the similarity between the rally of
early 1930 and the one we had through April of this year. The early
1930 rally came after the market had fallen nearly 50% in the fall of
1929. The spring 1930 rally took the market up nearly 50% again, to a
level that was only about 20% below the previous peak. That rally, of
course, was also the biggest sucker's rally in history. After the market
peaked in April 1930, it crashed again, eventually ending up down 89%
from the 1929 high and more than 80% from the 1930 high. The market
did not reach the 1930 high again for another quarter of a century. The rally
that recently ended in April 2010 came after a crash that was actually
slightly more severe than the 1929 crash (53% versus 48%). It took the
market up nearly 80% from the low! The recent rally also lasted longer
than the 1930 rally did--a year, as opposed to 6 months … ]

what the something is said to be since the reality is … ‘This is a global
depression. This is a secular bear market in a global depression. This was
a manipulated bull (s***) cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a
typically manipulated bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great
regularity that the wall street frauds and insiders commission and sell into.
This is a typical wall street churn and earn pass the hot potato scam / fraud
as in prior crashes.’ ( It should be noted, and there have been a multitude

Indicators of a New Depression With the mainstream media focusing on the
country’s leveling unemployment rate, improving retail sales, and nascent
housing recovery, one might think that the US government has
successfully navigated the economy through recession and growth has
returned. Get Ready for a Double Dip … but many warning flags point
towards significant deterioration in the U.S. and global economy going
forward and so I think that by the end of the year or early 2011, we could
very well be facing a new leg down in the world’s economic situation … [I’d
say too optimistic since, to reiterate: This is a global depression. This is a
secular bear market in a global depression. This was a manipulated bull
(s***) cycle in a secular bear market. This has been a typically manipulated
bubble as has preceded the prior crashes with great regularity that the wall
street frauds and insiders commission and sell into. This is a typical wall

The Worst Money Supply Plunge Since The Depression Means A Double
Dip Is Now A ‘Virtual Certainty’ The stock of U.S. money as measured by

months ending in April. [ This is still an extraordinarily high level but … I
don’t buy it. I believe the printing presses have been working overtime to
pump out ever more worthless fiat currency and with the many trillions of
worthless fraudulent paper still out there and marked to anything. I further
believe the same is being surreptitiously used to supplant the fraudulent
paper, the consequences of which will be devastating, of course, as is
invariably so in depressions in any event. This scenario would also mean
huge fraud accomplis. ] Fiat Money Supply Contracting at Great
Depression Level The bankster operative who helped destroy Glass-

Sell in May and Go Away, Indeed [ I wasn’t kidding; and, I’m still not

The frauds on wall street et als should be criminally prosecuted, jailed, and
disgorgement imposed. If that were so, they wouldn’t be worrying about
who wins / loses since those who fraudulently play, invariably would (and
should) pay. If they’re not prosecuted, everyone loses.
THE FORECASTS:
Harry Dent, Jr. Economy will be in a Depression by 2011
The worst of this next depression is likely to hit between mid-2010 and mid-
2013, especially around early 2011, but if the banking system continues to
implode a deep downturn or depression could begin sometime in 2009
instead of 2010.
Dow will Fall to 3,800 – 4,500 by 2012
Nasdaq will Fall Below 1,100, its 2002 low, by late 2010 or mid-2012 at the
latest.
Inflation will Increase until mid- 2010 and then turn to Deflation
Interest Rates will Increase
U.S. Dollar will Decline
Housing will Decline by 40 – 60% from Today’s Levels
Greatest Economic and Banking Crisis since the 1930s will Occur Between
2010 and 2012
Russell Napier is the author of the book “Anatomy of the Bear”, a professor
at the Edinburgh Business School and a consultant to CLSA Ltd. which is
one of the top research houses in Asia. Napier’s research indicates (and I
paraphrase) that: The S&P 500 will Decline to 400 by 2014 (the Dow 30 to
3800)
The S&P 500 will then undergo a major crash that will see U.S. equity prices
bottom at almost 50% below current levels (i.e. to 400 or less; the Dow 30
to 3800 or less) sometime around 2014 as Tobin’s “q” drops to 0.3
signaling the end of the bear market, as it has done at the end of the four
largest U.S. market declines in 1921, 1932, 1949 and 1982.
U.S. Treasury Sales Collapse Leading to End of U.S. Dollar as Reserve
Currency
Robert R. Prechter Jr. is author of a number of newsletters and books
including “Elliott Wave Principle” (1978) in which he predicted the super
bull market of the 1980s; “At the Crest of the Tidal Wave – A Forecast of the
Great Bear Market” (1995) in which he predicted a slow motion economic
earthquake, brought about by a great asset mania, that would register 11
on the financial Richter scale causing a collapse of historic proportions;
and “Conquer the Crash: You can Survive and Prosper in a Deflationary
Depression” (2002) in which he described the economic cataclysm that we
are just beginning to experience and advised how to position one’s self
financially during that period of time.
Depression is Imminent
The Dow Jones Industrial Average will go down to at least 1000, most likely
to below 777 which was the starting point of its mania back in August 1982,
and quite likely drop below 400 at one or more times during the bear
market.

Ron Paul: After ‘CIA coup,’ agency ‘runs military’ US House Rep. Ron Paul
says the CIA has has in effect carried out a “coup” against the US
government, and the intelligence agency needs to be “taken out.” I
also personally believe there has been a defacto coup d’etat which
has manifested in various substantial, blatant, brazened frauds, ie.,
wall street, missing 360 tons of $100 bills in Iraq, war profiteering, etc.,
without any fear of prosecution, and of course concomitant decline for
u.s. as the treasury is looted. But I also believe its scope is beyond
just the CIA with many complicit within the corrupted 3 branches of
u.s. government (fed judges, us attorneys, illegal system, etc.) plus
the military and private big money, ie., Goldman Sachs / wall street
men, etc., among other organized crime. america is defacto bankrupt

bribery first hand, particularly the courts / u.s. attorneys offices (ie.,
alito – now u.s. supreme court justice – quid pro quo for his
complicity / cover-up), feds; see immediately after article excerpt for

…“Evidence points to aircraft – familiarly known as “torture taxis” –
used by the CIA to move captives seized in its kidnapping or
“extraordinary rendition” operations through Gatwick and other
airports in the EU being simultaneously used for drug distribution in
the Western hemisphere. A Gulfstream II jet aircraft N9875A
identified by the British Government and the European Parliament as
being involved in this traffic crashed in Mexico…” In 2004, another
torture taxi crashed in a field in Nicaragua with a ton of cocaine
aboard… Mexican soldiers found ..132 bags containing 3.3 metric
tons of cocaine. The origination of the Gulfstream’s flight is
unknown but it was destined for Cancun when it crash landed.
Again, here is the important point: that same Gulf Stream II was one
of the very same planes chartered to the CIA for the rendition of
suspected terrorists prisoners. Gulf Stream II crashed in Mexico with 3
tons of cocaine on board ..it should not be surprising that this illegal
practice of rendition has in some part, been used as a well-run
smokescreen for another borderless illegal operation- an extremely
lucrative international transfer and delivery of cash and
narcotics.,,These flights are not subject to regular customs checks,
inspections or normal regulations as they move seamlessly between
destinations in the US, Britain, Europe, Middle East, Central Asia,
Cuba and possibly through US bases in Turkey, Greece and
Morocco…

america’s just a fraudulent and failed defacto bankrupt nation.
There must be such things as parallel universes (I don’t really believe that,
because there isn’t) or how else do you explain the disconnect
between reality, current and prospective, and the wet dreams posited
to keep the war funding / corporate welfare programs alive in
collectively what has already become a trillion dollar boondoggle (not
counting prospective medical costs, etc.) and promises to go much
higher. Even israel apologist Cohen of The Washington Post alludes
to the Vietnam analogy. However, even if there were real goals beyond
the poppy / heroin trade which the Taliban had all but eradicated
(there isn’t); even if america wasn’t defacto bankrupt (america is);
even if america wasn’t killing innocent civilians in large numbers (war
criminal nation america is); even if america’s allies haven’t similarly
helped to bankrupt themselves by way of this war (they have); even if I
hadn’t told you so (I did) ….. this war still was, is, and remains a very
bad idea!
How does anyone take the u.s. seriously in light of their credibility
problems, war crimes, etc.? What nuke technology israel didn’t steal
from the u.s., the u.s. gave them along with missile, armaments, etc..
and paid for with taxpayer money that u.s. taxpayers and the defacto
bankrupt nation don’t have.
It's time to expel israel from the UN Without doubt, the israeli attack on the
Gaza-bound "Freedom Flotilla" in the dawn of Monday, May 31, 2010 is
one of the most savage crimes in recent history. It seems the ruling
power in Tel Aviv has been afflicted with a variant of mad cow
disease; otherwise, how could it be so cruel to unleash such a beastly
raid on the "Mavi Marmara," the Turkish flagship of a flotilla carrying
medical and humanitarian supplies to the hapless people of Gaza
Strip?

Lunacy it would be.
But it is also to their great credit that the Iranians have not made their own
threats.
Everyone knows there are 3 WMD threats, Nuclear Biological and chemical.
The scariest of which is Biological.
Any attack done under the threat of immediate biological retaliation would
deter only the insane.
Watch out america home of the insane, home of the leaders who want an
80% population reduction.
General McChrystal’s Burning Contempt for the Puppet Obama The farce

Stanley McChrystal’s sharp comments about Obama, Biden, and the
administration published by Rolling Stone are not so much about
disrespect, as the script-reading corporate media talking heads would
have it, but rather about a policy in disarray in Afghanistan.
