    LPG. It was the common marked, not the EU. It was meant to be a trading agreement between the European countries, in the hope we would all get on together & not have anymore senseless wars. But the people behind the scenes had other plans…One European GOVT,One European Bank. Complete control of Europe….That’s why a simple concept turned into the Monster it is today.
    A monster that must be destroyed….I have tried to pot it in simple terms so every can understand.

      Hello Irishtony,
      Hope all’s well.
      It’s still early days for this drama…
      I suspect a couple of things will now start to slowly unravel. It’s a process.

    The EU should have remained as a free trade area.

    By the time they were thinking political unity and stopping German French wars, that cause was already negated by the rise to Super-power status of Russia and the US.
    BY 1970 there was NO LONGER any viable possibility of France or Germany going to war.

      Jun 27, 2016 27:56 PM

      That is what I thought CFS, thanks

    The media propaganda in the UK, France and Germany is disgusting.

    To the masses, for the benefit of the Establishment.

    Vive la revolution.

    Big Al, please consider the level of debt!

    Ask yourself about the mechanics of solving a debt problem by adding more debt.

    Milk may be nutritious, but I can’t envision a cow living very long sucking on its own udder.

      Jun 27, 2016 27:58 PM

      That is a different issue and, of course, it will result in chaos. Brexit should not result in much other than “eventually business as usual”.

      Who knows, maybe I am nuts, but I don’t think so!

        Big Al,
        I agree that Brexit, in theory, is a nothing happening soon vote.

        But, in fact, I believe I believe it has caused many people to re-think about politics and economics.

        I’m calling that a discontinuity point.
        A point at which, thoughts, trends, slopes, suddenly change.

    Jun 27, 2016 27:42 PM

    LPG, Doc,
    Do you not feel that Brexit might be causing a point discontinuity in time of economics and politics.
    Do charts handle discontinuities?

    I see Brexit changing British politics. Even possibly European politics, although there perhaps it is harder to distinguish between cart and horse.

      CFS,

      If you actually believe – as Martin Armstrong does, and I subscribe to his opinions on this matter – that the EU in its current form is doomed, then there’s no discontinuity but a process with some events that shorten the time frame that separate the NOW from an outcome to occur OR simply increase the odds of the outcome to occur.

      So for me, I see no discontinuity but a continuity of something that has effectively already started, but which is not necessarily obvious to the eye.

      Back in 2010-11, i knew some hedge fund managers that were convinced the Euro/the EU were doomed to fail. Back then, I disagreed with them. As I mentioned in the recording, i got finally got convinced about it in early 2015 – as i said, i was “late to the party”.

      Again, for me, current events are unfolding in a continuity. I don’t see discontinuity. But that’s me….

      Best,

      I agree with LPG’s comments. I believe this a shot across the bow and since economically I don’t see a reversal of the global financial issues anytime soon, there will continual disruption. In fact, Merkel is starting to backtrack (as a good politician does) already on the immigration issue and it’s one of 3 issues that she says has to be looked at going forward. I know one thing; the folks are going to be looking ever more careful at actions instead of words going forward. I might add that the IMF had a paper produced recently by 2 authors that almost came out and admitted the deleterious affect of free capital flows and globalization on the global population. You have to know that the IMF gave permission for something like this to be produced.

        I don’t know if Merkel is fooling herself, but she will not survive politically through 2017 in my opinion.

    There is a referendum in Italy in October called by the Italian PM to vote on the Italian legal / constitutional system. But the mood in Italy now is that people are seeing the referendum as a chance to show their disgust are being in the EU.

    So that is coming in October.

    Barclays will either double in 12 months or become another RBS bailed out by the UK government. I am staying away.

      Last time at looked at Barclays statistics it was effectively bankrupt…….wait till the London property market collapses and rather than “dead man walking” , it will be a ghost.

      Hello Bob,

      Hope all’s well.

      Keith Neumeyer – First Majestic Silver – sold his house last year and bought silver. No hiding issue. 😀
      Personally, I liked that move. But that’s me. 😀

      Best as always,

        I bought another 2000 oz of silver last week before Brexit and am happy with it. I own AG too as well as PAAS, SLW, AXU, EXK, CEF, PSLV, SSRI,HL, MUX, etc., as I think silver is going way over 100.

    Well now we know what the ECB thinks it is going to need for banking bail-outs, share-buying to prop up stocks.

    http://www.ecb.europa.eu/mopo/implement/omo/html/20160065.en.html

    In case you can’t understand it.
    The extra borrowing is almost 400 Billion euros.

      CFS
      Jun 27, 2016 27:06 PM

      There is no information on how the 400 billion euros will be exactly spent.

      But the ECB estimates 7.1 percent of euro zone bank loans were not performing at the end of last year, nearly five times the level in the United States. Italy and Greece are the worst countries.
      7.1% amounts, by my calculation, to about 900 billion in non-performing loans, so almost half that amount should be enough for a bail-out, since banks no longer seem to mark to market and carry loans for a long time.
