China Agrees to Join U.S. to End N. Korea Weapons Pursuit

China's relationship with NK was larely for its markets in the Islamic nations. Islam is its own empire, centred in Arabia. It hasn't quite reached full rapproachment with Western capital and has intermittently blown hot and cold (although it is ...

China Agrees to Join U.S. to End N. Korea Weapons Pursuit

Repatriations of Chinese labour suplus to investors around the world will keep the bottles topped up for a while.

Economy bears turn bulls seeing 3% GDP for U.S. few saw in 2012

Bourgeoisie socialism works after a fashion during post bubble crises. The problem is that the French are taking it one step too far in biting the hand that is feeding them, the market. Very stupid!

Tobin Tax is madness for Europe, and economic war against Britain

Why do you participate in the citadel of capitalism, the market? Incidentally, I agree with you that this is an irreconciliable tendency in capitalism. However, the next bubble is in the making IMHO and consolidation is always the name of this game.

Bearing in mind that American capitalists holdings across the world are vast (given their prime role, along with the UK, in breaking open previously closed markets for surplus), I would suggest that the ties between all three sets of capitalists ...

Dollar Heavy, Poised for More Losses

Hahahaha. One often finds that these sorts of pontificators miss the most obvious elephant in the room. We must be grateful for the invisible hand of capitalism. Left to the devices of these family budgeteers, liquidity would have flown a long time ...

Dollar Heavy, Poised for More Losses

The current crisis is as a consequence of the Thatcher era property bubble. I guess its a hard one trying to preserve liquidity flows whilst tackling the issues. Bit of a balancing act.

Cyprus forced to find extra €6bn for bailout, leaked analysis shows

Not from my experience.

Cyprus forced to find extra €6bn for bailout, leaked analysis shows

Ah well, if there is any truth to this, it will come to market. If it's a load of cobblers, this will be the first and last we will hear of it.

Iranian scientist claims to have invented 'time machine'

Barring a major natural catastrophe or the peaking of a vital commodity, you aint seen nothing yet.

I am not quite sure I agree with that. The Germans aren't up to managing a mixed zone (even with the assistance of the French), being primarily exporters. The EZ needs a more balnced mix of exporter and financial services EU countries. This will be ...

New Concerns From Germany Over European Banking Supervisor

Very quietly and slowly, the deficit of the Greenspan era property excesses are gradually being mopped up by global labour surplus, the capacity of which is being rapidly expanded especially with the advent of BRICS fund injections into the global ...

Given that the ideology is to unravel the excesses of the post Cold War property bubble as a consequence of Thatcherite/Reagan era banking and general business deregulation, I can't see the lack of a link. Capital has particular tendencies, one of ...

Ideology Drives the Fed, And It Has Nothing To Do With Free Markets

These people don't understand the dynamic nature of capital. I would focus on trading and ignore the needless doom.

The Real Japan "Panic" Indicator May Hit At 1pm ET

Capital has ample capacity to shuffle paper as you put it for decades to come (and I do not mean the Western working class who will increasingly be forced to compete with benchmartks being set in China). A greater risk (for capital of course) lies ...

George Soros urges Angela Merkel to consider quitting euro

No probs. Its not like you are losing anything other than the few minutes to read my posts. If that is causing you anguish, I recommend the ignore button.

George Soros urges Angela Merkel to consider quitting euro

I am not entirely sure I agree. The Euroezone (and I don't mean the Euro) draws its strength from being associated with the largest financial centre in the world, London. Of course, Germanys capacity as an exporter gives depth to the Eurozone and ...

George Soros urges Angela Merkel to consider quitting euro

Think of the UK and US (Financial services dominates) as two arteries in the stream of global capital, whereas predominantly export economies such as Germany, Japan and China as feeders into those arteries. Soros's fundamental point clearly infers ...

George Soros urges Angela Merkel to consider quitting euro

Accumulation and wealth consolidation are core tendencies in globalising capitalism. I would have been surprised had I not seen the emergence of austerity along with increased taxation (along with the emergence of casualised labour in marginal ...
