- Walter Burien reply to a forward from Wayne B --

- Wayne - Now that you have put the Bank list of twenty-five
out there with a "Sky is falling" connotation, here is a
reality check for you:
-
- Take a look at the same derivative figures right before
a market crash or slide that has taken place over the last 20 years. Then
look at the banks profit statements after the slide or crash takes place.
(Significant increase)
-
- The banks, (as well as Government Investment Portfolios)
via derivatives will be holding the "Short" side at the top,
and reverse to the "long" side at the bottom. This being done as
the promoted chicken-little "The ski is falling" routine is promoted
to the public as "the public looses their money in reaction to the
promoted hype". They have done this for over 40 years.
-
- Take a look at "reality" over a 35 year period
and not promoted hype design to liquidate the minnows of their money. The
promoted hype may be correct in the very short run, but the end result
over a period of time is what's important.

- Dollar INDEX going back to 1985 to 2007:

- And last but not least, Gold going back to 1971:
-
-
- http://futuresource.quote.com/charts/charts.jsp?s=GC&o=
- &a=M&z=800x550&d=HIGH&b=LINE&st=
-
- Now let us look at an overlap of Gold and the Dollar:

- =DX&a=M&z=800x550&d=HIGH&b=LINE&st=

-
- Interesting, don't you think?
-
- But even more so is an overlap of the S&P 500 and
the Dollar:

- X&a=M&z=800x550&d=HIGH&b=LINE&st=
-
-
- You will see that in 1987-88, the Dollar was brought
down in most probabilities and under the then circumstances to effect
the rise in the Stock Market (US Economic growth).
-
- Then starting in 1995, the Dollar went up with the
Stock Market (Very big US Economic growth and International money
pouring into the US)
-
- The interesting point is that in 2004, to 2007 an inverse
relationship was presented that appears to be the "Big Screw"
to International Players that was being played out where the Dollar
sold off and the market ran up. (International players were losing on the
US currency value offsetting their profits in the US Stock Market holdings.
If they went short in the Stock Market back then, they lost big money)
-
- What this tells me now is that a "convergence"
is about to take place over the next four to five years, but could happen
in two.
-
- As I have brought forward on my site and in posts, the
US Government, in composite totals, owns the Markets (Commodity, Stock,
and Currency) by investment, and in analogy: "When you own the Cookie
Jar, you determine the value of what the cookies will sell for."
That's the "definition" of a rigged game?
-
- On this last chart above of the Dollar Index and S&P
500, where will the two meet again? That is the big question. Maybe S&P
1150 - 1050 and DX 114.
-
- In any event, it will be only about twenty to thirty
trillion dollars that will change hands between now and then, and I will
bet you that when all is said and done, Government's investment portfolios
will be sitting on the largest chunk of that amount after the fat lady
sings. Same, same as they also did within two-years following 911.

- Pension funds pay a salary at retirement. Any local government
can be restructured to meet their annual budget needs "Without"
Taxes in the same fashion. TRF (Tax Retirement Funds) now meeting every
City, County, State's annual budgetary needs! They have already proven
that it will work! CAFR1 says: Make it law and make it so!
