Bill Bonner — Wed, 16 May 2012 16:02:35 +0000

“Liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate farmers, liquidate real estate… it will purge the rottenness out of the system. High costs of living and high living will come down. People will work harder, live a more moral life. Values will be adjusted, and enterprising people will pick up from less competent people.” — Andrew Mellon Down, [...]

We can learn a lot from the Argentines. When it comes to messing up an economy, they’re Numero Uno. They’re Olympians of financial legerdemain and masters of the old false shuffle. In 2001, the country was deeply in debt. The government was out of money. And the currency was losing value fast. What did the [...]

The year is winding down. The sun is low in the sky. There soon won’t be anything left of 2011. The Dow put in a good performance yesterday — up more than 300 points when we last looked. Housing starts were at a 19-month high…which caused investors to think recovery is right around the corner. [...]

Have yourself a merry little depression… What’s this? Christine Lagarde, IMF chief, said last week that the world’s nations needed to work together to avoid a 1930s-style depression.

Bill Bonner — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 18:46:15 +0000

So far, so good. Things keep happening, more or less as they should. That is, the US and European economies keep falling apart. And the fixers keep failing to put them back together again. Just as we expected. Trying to fix a depression it is not only expensive…. The US government spends $1.60 for every [...]

Last week produced nothing but more disappointment. At the center of it was the Europeans’ inability to make their debt disappear. They had hoped that they could just announce a plan to take care of it…and that would be enough. But then, the Greeks said they wanted to vote on it…and then, they didn’t. ‘Papandenomium,’ [...]
