Today, the government reported that 243,000 new jobs were created in January. Good news, right? Well, if history is any guide, that number is not to be trusted. And, it's the government itself which tells us we shouldn't trust it! With today's report, the government reported revisions to the prior figures. It turns out that the initial estimate is wildly wrong in about 1 out of 3 reports. So,

Ben Bernanke is defending the Federal Reserve's financial repression of savers today on the Capitol Hill. He also says there are no signs of higher inflation. Maybe that is because he is wearing his CPI, or PCE goggles...lucky for us, we have legendary investor Jim Rogers on Capital Account today to tell us why Ben Bernanke may not know what he is doing. Jim will also tell us what he thinks of

Joel Bowman writes in How Piracy Works Against an Unnatural Monopoly that, "while the free market bends over backwards to serve the needs and desires of individuals, the state merely bends individuals over backwards..." "Free individuals’ ability to copy and learn from each other (without denying anyone else a single atom of realized, tangible or even “ownable” property in the process) is an

It looks like the Obama Administration is taking dead aim at American jobs — to destroy, not create, them. As we've mentioned before, Obama seems to be on course to impose tariffs on imported Chinese solar panels, doubling the cost for homeowners who want to save money on rising electric bills. And, by the way, wiping out installer jobs at the same time. Analysis by the Coalition for Affordable

Sign of the times from the Daily Reckoning: A pair of British tourists made the mistake of tweeting, “Free this week for a quick gossip/prep before I go and destroy America x” That put them on the police state radar straightaway: "destroy" is a Britishism for "party". Homeland Security was alerted that two British tourists were on their way to party in America — the horror of it all! Moreover,

By Elliott Wave International Patterns are everywhere. We see them in the ebb and flow of the tide, the petals of a flower, or the shape of a seashell. If we look closely, we can see patterns in almost everything around us. The price movements of financial markets are also patterned, and Elliott wave analysis gives you the tools to interpret those patterns. The Fibonacci sequence

The great vampire squid called Goldman Sachs may be a very useful contrary indicator. Matt Taibbi, one of the best financial journalists writing today, says that Goldman boasts an impressive record. For instance, in 2008, Goldman proclaimed that oil was going to $200. Within two months, oil topped at $147 and dropped like a rock to $36. It appears from circumstantial evidence that every time

You don't eat garbage in place of food. So, why do you read the Wall Street Journal or watch Fox News? The real story is that Global Warming is reaching the stage where we should all be in panic.

By Paul Craig Roberts Last Friday (January 27) the US Bureau of Economic Analysis announced its advance estimate that in the last quarter of 2011 the economy grew at an annual rate of 2.8% in real inflation-adjusted terms, an increase from the annual rate of growth in the third quarter.

By Ron Paul The Federal Reserve's interest rate price-setting board, the FOMC, met last week.  They will continue to set the federal funds rate at well below 1%, and plan to keep it low until the end of 2014.  That's a year and half longer than they planned when they met just last month.  Chairman Bernanke says they are keeping interest rates so low for so long because the economic outlook

We're addressing the coming crash in Texas' electrical power here. Texas is running out of electricity in a trend of intense warming. Last summer, Texas experienced temperatures more than 10°F higher than historical averages. While some see that as a aberration, we see it as a preview of coming climate. Not every year will be that hot, but the frequency of such intense heat will only increase.

Murdoch's Wall Street Journal is now less credible than The National Enquirer — by a long shot. The WSJ is even less credible than the New York Times!

For years, NASA scientists wondered where the missing heat from Global Warming was hiding. They measured the heat going in from the sun and the heat going out to space, but some of that heat wasn't going into heating up the air. Where was it? They've now proven that the missing heat has been going into the ocean. And, it's going to start coming out again into the atmosphere someday soon. When it

The biggest polluting nation on this planet is China. No surprise there.

The Fed doesn't want to show panic, but it's what they don't say that says they're in a panic about the economy. The official printer of money has essentially declared that deflation is beating inflation. Since the GFC (Global Financial Crisis) started in 2007, the Fed Head Bernanke has operated under the theory ("delusion" might be a better word for it) that printing money to create inflation

Do the talking heads on CNBC try to convince you we're still in a recovery? The US economy never really regained ground lost in the 2007-2009 recession and we appear to have lost 8 million jobs which may never return. The economic news appears good, but is suspect due to faulty seasonal adjustment factors. Now, we know the Eurozone is in recession. Today, we learned that the UK's latest GDP

Are the economic data looking up — or, are they simply being distorted by faulty seasonal adjustments? According to analysts at Goldman, the latter may be the true answer. Bloomberg reports that Performance May Appear Better Than It Is In The Economy: A decline in unemployment and pickup in manufacturing point to accelerating U.S. growth. Some economists say the numbers may not be as good as

We all know just how bad the stock market has been over the past dozen years. The S&P 500 Index is basically unchanged unless you count dividends. But, did you know there is a simple strategy which has returned 387% over the past dozen years? Yes, indeed, and it only requires switching investments twice a year like clockwork. We reminded our subscribers of this strategy in the middle of December

Paul Craig Roberts points out exactly who's being hypocritical in Drowning in Hypocrisy: Iran has been trying "to deal with us through diplomacy." The response from Washington has been belligerent threats of military attack, unfounded and irresponsible accusations that Iran is making a nuclear weapon, sanctions and an oil embargo. Washington's accusations echo Israel's and are contradicted by

Gary Shilling has been consistently correct in calling the economic outlook. When Wall Street warned that bonds were a bad investment, he said they would soar. And they did. Now, he says the world economy is dipping into recession. Europe will experience a recession equally as bad as the US did during 2007-2009, China will plunge into a hard landing and the US will be dragged down by the

Back in the Seventies, the Arab Oil Embargoes resulted in big, expensive US government programs to drive the cost of solar panels down to reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources. Then, when oil prices dropped again, the Carter Administration dismantled those government programs. It was a perfect example of short term thinking shooting us in the foot in the long term. Today, we pay much

The Republicans achieved their goal today. That goal was to kill the Keystone Oil Pipeline project. Now they can heap blame on Obama.

For the past half-century, scientists have periodically inserted leap-seconds as necessary to account for the Earth's slowing rotation due to friction. This keeps the atomic clocks aligned with the Earth. If we didn't do this, eventually, midnight would become noon and vice versa. Apparently, the United States has decided that leap-seconds are simply too confusing to modern telecommunications

Note: a bucket shop is an unofficial and usually illegal betting operation in which the prices of stocks and commodities are posted and the customers bet on the rise and fall of prices without actually buying stock, commodities, or commodity futures.

Some folks think nuclear power is dangerous. But, far more people are killed every year in natural gas explosions than nuclear accidents. And, thousands are stricken with various forms of cancer caused by burning coal. This morning in Austin, Texas, for example, a man was killed when his house exploded due to a natural gas leak. This was entirely preventable. He had detected the leak in late

Guest columnist Dr. Gary Peterson writes in Gail Tverberg's Our Finite World blog: Our economic system must exist within Earth’s finite limits, so recent and current generations have sold their soul to the devil for temporary riches, leaving the Devil to collect his due when the system falls apart under its own weight and the four horsemen of the apocalypse ride again across the world’s

The Europeans are working their way toward a civil war or revolution. How do we know? Here are the unemployment rates for European youths: Spain (49.6%), Greece (46.6% in September 2011) and Slovakia (35.1%) Source: http://bilbo.economicoutlook.net/blog/?p=17668 These are the future soldiers in the coming clash which will topple the Austerians. Don't think this won't affect America, though.

If there's one attribute that should eliminate Republicans from holding government office, it's their attitude toward Global Warming. It indicates they are simply science deniers. Do you really want anyone in a position of power who denies science? No, of course not, that would be a total disaster:

The Keystone Kops don't hold a candle to the idiots running Europe. But, not since World War II have so many suffered so much from the bad — insanely bad — decisions being made by those who are paid to make those decisions. As you know, the Europeans think that when the economy is declining, the solution is to cut spending and raise taxes. That, of course, makes the economy decline further,

While global warming on the scale humans are creating is a threat to our very existence, there is at least one good side to it: we're preventing an Ice Age. By raising CO2 levels from 240 parts per million (ppm) to the current value of 390 ppm (and likely continuing that process well into the future), we are keeping the Earth from entering the next ice age, which is due to start within the next

John Williams keeps track of government "statistics" (really just lies by tyrants) and issues corrected figures. Here, we reproduce those stats as Paul Craig Roberts has decoded them in December Payroll Jobs Report: Today’s (Friday, January 6) payroll jobs report of 200,000 new jobs in December is overstated by at least 82,000 jobs. As approximately 130,000 new jobs are needed each month to stay

Today, the US government issued its latest set of lies about employment. According to the government, "Nonfarm payroll employment rose by 200,000 in December, and the unemployment rate, at 8.5 percent, continued to trend down... Job gains occurred in transportation and warehousing, retail trade, manufacturing, health care, and mining." If you believe that, you will be interested in a bridge in

By Paul Craig Roberts Jobs offshoring, financial deregulation, and ten years of wars have severely damaged the US economy and the economic prospects of 90% of the American population. The signs are everywhere in front of our eyes. They are in the income distribution data, the BLS jobs data, the Census data, the poverty figures, and the high number… read more...

Paul Craig Roberts writes: The concepts that the Bush/Obama regimes have institutionalized are totally foreign to the Anglo-American concepts of law and liberty. In one decade the US has been transformed from a free society into a police state. The American population, to the extent it is aware of what has occurred, has simply accepted the revolution from the top. Ron Paul is the only American

Some of the objections raised by Republicans of Obamacare have substance and some don't. One of those valid objections is that the new law eliminates jobs, which is true. A good example is the new medical device excise tax, which is resulting in the elimination of many jobs. For example, Stryker Corp., whose products include artificial hips and knees, announced that it would let go about 1,000 of

By William K. Black On December 13, 2011, the Wall Street Journal published an article entitled “Banks in Push for Pact.” It was an obscure article buried in the real estate section.  The article contained this clause:  “Under the proposal, banks would be released from legal claims tied to servicing delinquent mortgages as well as certain mortgage-origination practices….”  Opponents of this

By Ron Paul Last week, as most Americans were celebrating the holidays with family and friends, the Obama Administration announced plans to seek yet another debt ceiling increase in the New Year.  While some fiscal conservatives will try to block this increase, their efforts are designed to fail thanks to the procedure set up by the last debt ceiling negotiations.  Congress would have to pass a
