How close are we getting to a global economic collapse?

You have 2 months TOPS to get your affairs in orders.

Make no mistake, this is NOT false doom, this is NOT a drill.

Do what you will with this information."

Time will tell, as usual. Spooky that he got the Goldman and Sachs thingy right though...

Looks like its back to business as usual. Markets rising pretty decent today. Will there be a day when the markets close lower than they started? When was the last time it fell for two days in a row?

Better yet 2 weeks in a row..

But you are truly betting against the house if you are picking tops here. Apparently buying the dips hasn't quite gone out of style yet.

oops!

AAPL Earnings

Slightly better than expected

Hello again. It's me, the resident prophet of doom.
Take a look at this guy leading the blind. That headline will get a lot of people excited no doubt.

But.... you bulls have had a good run.
Mr. Bear must be getting very hungry.
We need to see a down week here. I'm sticking with my 10 week theory. The 11th week must be the beginning of the selloff. Or maybe ~I'm~ the fool.

[edit...] Take a look at the 200 week moving average on the Dow chart. Last week, week number 10 in the mystical pump & dump, got up above but then got beat down below the average. Nice. Right now we are sitting just below the average. Let's hope Hermes got the memo.

Greece's budget gap last year was worse than feared, the European Union's statistics office revealed on Thursday, triggering a fresh slide of asset prices in Greece and other debt-choked European countries.

The budget figures were announced as tens of thousands of Greek nurses, teachers and other public workers staged a one-day strike to protest against the government's austerity measures.

They demanded that Athens reject any pressure for further spending cuts in crisis talks that it launched this week with the EU and the IMF.

The Greek government posted a budget deficit of 32.34 billion euros or 13.6 percent of gross domestic product in 2009, not the 12.7 percent which it had reported earlier, Eurostat said in a review of countries' deficits throughout the region.

It added that the Greek deficit might be revised again, by between 0.3 and 0.5 percentage points of GDP, because of uncertainty about the quality of Greece's data and accounting procedures

Greece is done for..

Moore Capital, a leading global macro hedge-fund firm run by Louis Moore Bacon, warned of a "potential breakdown" of the European Monetary Union and criticized plans to bail out Greece, according to a recent investor letter obtained by MarketWatch on Wednesday.

"Perhaps the most interesting area for the foreseeable future is in the potential breakdown of the European Monetary Union," Bacon wrote in the letter, dated April 16

"Instead of punishing the Greeks for their free-rider and fraudulent gaming of the Maastricht rules -- either by ejecting Greece from the Union to propel them to reform and come back at a competitive exchange rate or by forcing them to restructure their debt within the confines of monetary union, either of which would have eventually strengthened and solidified the euro -- the European leaders have decided to reward the prodigal Greeks with a bailout, socializing their ills and taxing once again the prodigious Northern European workers," he said.

The bailout could have "disastrous consequences" for the European Union and Europe

Greece Requests EU-IMF Rescue in Euro’s Biggest Test (Update1)

“It is a matter of national need to ask officially” for the activation of the EU-led aid mechanism, Papandreou said in a televised address from the Greek island of Kastelorizo.

Is it me or yesterday they just reported a 6% PPI?

PPI : inflation in the cost of production

Time for some hyperinflation doom!

Time to raise interest rates... and crash the whole economy. YAY

Or let hyperinflation run it's course and bankrupt most of america! YAY

IMO there's not much time left to America.

the problem with greece is contagion...with so few european banks healthy enough to back them, it gets a little dicey trying to pull euros from struggling economies out of other countries. i think that is why NYSE keeps pumping to the upside, america is in much better shape right now, comparitively speaking. besides, there is still alot of money sitting on the sidelines waiting for the dust to clear.

nope, inflation could get as bad as the the jimmy carter era, but hyperinflation?? nah, too many "kill switches" built in...the fed can suck billions out of the economy fast enough to stop it in it's tracks.
the banks need a little longer borrowing money at 1/2% and loaning it out at 4% to make up for the losses, it doesn't take long with that type of spread. you have to remember...the wealthy get paid first

SEC Officials Surfing Porn During Financial Crisis, Report Finds

The Securities and Exchange Commission is the sheriff of the financial industry, looking for crimes such as Bernard Madoff's Ponzi scheme, but a new government report obtained by ABC News has concluded that some senior employees spent hours on the agency's computers looking at sites such as naughty.com, skankwire and youporn as the financial crisis was unfolding.

Now, the question is, how did they manage to find out about GS fraud, when they were masturbating at their work places?
