Daily Forex News Recap (11/08): Euro Sold on Ireland Debt Concerns


Find more News at www.fxtimes.com. We start this week with the Euro being pressured as a result of widening spreads on Irish government bonds and rising credit default swaps. There are concerns that Ireland will not be able to meet its deficit reductions and will have to tap the EU Stabilization Fund.

The World Bank (WB) & The International Monetary Fund (IMF)


John Pilger on the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The World Bank is an international financial institution that provides loans to developing countries for capital programmes. The World Bank has a stated goal of reducing poverty. By law, all of its decisions must be guided by a commitment to promote foreign investment, international trade and facilitate capital investment. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the intergovernmental organization that oversees the global financial system by following the macroeconomic policies of its member countries, in particular those with an impact on exchange rate and the balance of payments. It is an organization formed with a stated objective of stabilizing international exchange rates and facilitating development through the enforcement of liberalising economic policies on other countries as a condition for loans, restructuring or aid. It also offers loans with varying levels of concessionality, mainly to poorer countries. Its headquarters are in Washington, DC, United States. The IMF's relatively high influence in world affairs and development has drawn heavy criticism from some sources.

Pakistani Riots over Stock Exchange


CHEN: And in Pakistan on Thursday, hundreds of angry investors, upset by plunging Pakistani share prices, smashed windows of Karachi Stock Exchange and set fires in front of the Islamabad exchange. They're demanding a temporary closure of the market. Let's go to that report. STORY: A drain on investor confidence accelerated on Thursday, as stocks fell over 4 percent and the rupee 1.3 percent by midday due to fears of political uncertainty and dire economic challenges. Close to one thousand mostly small investors gathered in the gardens of the bourse to demand that the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) be closed for two days. Two injured people were taken away after the protest turned violent. Chanting slogans critical of the government, they were also demanding for the launch of a market stabilization fund without further delay. Authorities have proposed the launch of a 50 billion rupees fund. [Mohammad Zubair Khatri, Investor]: "There is a limit and that limit is over. The investors are now on road ruined. Their shares are not selling and the rates have come down to 25 percent. This has resulted in this ransacking." In the eastern city of Lahore, some 100 small investors burnt tyres and blocked the road to the local bourse to demand government action. In the Pakistani capital Islamabad, dozens of angry investors set fire to share documents and files after hurling them out of the Stock Exchange building. Analysts say together with inflation, a depreciating exchange rate and <b>...</b>

Ron Paul Votes NO BAILOUT (Speech on the House Floor)


September 29, 2008, US House of Representatives. Ron Paul [R-TX] votes NO on the bailout bill. AYES 205 NOES 228 clerk.house.gov ---------------------------------------------------------- TRANSCRIPT: Madam Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to this bill. This is only going to make the problem that much worse. The problem came about because we spent too much; we borrowed too much, and we printed too much money; we inflated too much, and we overregulated. This is all that this bill is about is more of the same. So you can't solve the problem. We are looking at a symptom. We are looking at the collapsing of a market that was unstable. It was unstable because of the way it came about. It came about because of a monopoly control of money and credit by the Federal Reserve System, and that is a natural consequence of what happens when a Federal Reserve System creates too much credit. Now, there have been a fair number of free market economists around who have predicted this would happen. Yet do we look to them for advice? No. We totally exclude them. We don't listen to them. We don't look at them. We look to the people who created the problem, and then we perpetuate the problem. The most serious mistake that could be made here today is to blame free market capitalism for this problem. This has nothing to do with free market capitalism. This has to do with a managed economy, with an inflationary system, with corporatism, and with a special interest system. It has nothing to do <b>...</b>

Preparing for Copenhagen: How Developing Countries Are Fighting Climate Change


Preparing for Copenhagen: How Developing Countries Are Fighting Climate Change - Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming - 2009-03-04 - Historic emissions of industrialized countries like the United States are far higher than those of developing countries, and per capita emissions of industrialized countries are much higher than in developing countries. Nevertheless, looking at the absolute emissions of countries, it is becoming clear that the climate crisis cannot be solved without efforts of all major emitters. This includes countries like Brazil, China, India, Mexico and South Africa. The Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming held a hearing entitled, "Preparing for Copenhagen: How Developing Countries Are Fighting Climate Change" to look at current efforts of developing nations to fight climate change and what this means for the climate negotiations in Copenhagen at the end of 2009. WITNESS LIST: Mr. Carter Roberts, President and CEO, World Wildlife Fund (WWF); Ms. Barbara Finamore, China Program Director, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC); Mr. Ned Helme, President, Center for Clean Air Policy (CCAP); Mr. Lee Lane, Resident Fellow, American Enterprise Institute (AEI).

NWO Honcho, Maurice Strong, Q and A w/ Chinese Youth


Maurice Strong, Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Al Gore's mentor and executive member of the Club of Rome. "I believe it is appropriate to have an 'over-representation' of the facts on how dangerous it is, as a predicate for opening up the audience." Al Gore, member of the Club of Rome and set to become the world's first carbon billionaire. He is also the largest shareholder of Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), which looks set to become the world's central carbon trading body. Maurice Strong sits on the board of directors for CCX. Back before he became US President Obama served on the board of directors for the Joyce Foundation when it gave CCX nearly $1.1 million in two separate grants that were instrumental in developing and launching the privately-owned Chicago Climate Exchange, which now calls itself "North America's only cap and trade system for all six greenhouse gases, with global affiliates and projects worldwide." Essentially Obama helped fund the profiteers of the carbon taxation program that he then steered steered through Congress.

John McCain: Roundtable 09/30/08


John McCain Round Table Des Moines, IA 09/30/08 TRANSCRIPT: JOHN MCCAIN: In light of the houses failure to act this morning, I spoke to the president about two things that the administration has not done but should do following the inaction of congress. First, the Treasury has already used its exchange stabilization fund to back money market accounts. I encourage it to use this fund as creatively as possible to provide backstop for accounting, accounts across our financial system to maintain confidence on the part of savers and investors. And second, the recent housing bill gave the government nearly $1 trillion dollars and authority to purchase mortgages. Housing and mortgages are at the root of this crisis. I encourage the treasury to take action to shore up mortgage values. The administration can take these actions with the stroke oa pen. To help alleviate the crisis gripping our economy, I urge them to do so.

Trevon Daley 8 January 2012 .wmv


Trevon Daley is 25 years old and a talented singer & Sing-J. When he was 17, he fell from a tree after a branch broke more than 10 m deep. He suffered a fracture in his spine and got metal rods around to support and stabilize it. After some years the metal rod broke and begins to grow out of his back. He urgently needs a surgery to fix / exchange the metal rods because he is meanwhile scared of moving too fast in order not to worsen his state. He would be able to walk again but this would require an intensive physical therapy. A surgery in Jamaica is quite unlikely. The family cannot even afford the travel expenses inside Jamaica to do the necessary examiniations. We are searching now for a clinic who would provide the surgery under charitable conditions and / or intend to raise funds to finance the surgery in a specialized clinic. For all contacts and hints we would be very grateful if you look at our website www.jamuk-charity.com. We thank you all.

As far as I know, a record number of journalists have been accredited to cover today's event. I hope that it will prove useful for us all. In any case, I shall try to be as forthcoming as possible and answer all the questions that interest you. It would seem natural to begin our meeting today with the Russian Federation's economic results, with our perception of our social and economic policies in 2005 and what we have achieved in 2005. I should tell you at once that, as a whole, we are satisfied with the results of our work in 2005. I shall begin with general economic indicators which, in general, are well-known. Perhaps I am repeating myself, but nevertheless I would still like to list them. GDP (gross domestic product) growth was 6,4 percent. It is possible that this figure shall be slightly adjusted, but it shall not change significantly. We shall have the final figure sometime in March, but today we already more or less know the figure. This is quite good, especially since we had originally planned for growth of 5,9 percent. The Russian stock market grew significantly in 2005. Of course, all markets we refer to as developing markets grew. In Europe this <b>...</b>

Michele Bachmann to Geithner and Bernanke: Where in the Constitution is this Power?


Bachmann: What provision in the Constitution could you point to, to give authority for the actions that have been taken by Treasury since March of 08?

What in the Constitution could you point to, to give authority to the treasury for the extraordinary actions that have been taken. Geithner: Every action that the treasury and the fed and the FDIC is....been using authority granted by this body...by the Congress. Bachmann: And in the Constitution, what could you point to? Geithner: Under the laws of the land, of course. Bachmann: And if I could move to the federal reserve chair, if you could point to what provision in the Constitution that would give authority to the federal reserve - this has been over 10 trillion dollars that we're talking about. Bernanke: I don't know where 10 trillion dollars comes from. The congress has the right to authorize funds, which is what they did in the TARP program, and they have given us in the 1930s...they gave the federal reserve the power for emergency lending as a means of addressing financial crises which is what we've done. Bachmann: And to the federal reserve chair - Do you believe there are any limits on the authority that the Federal Reserve has taken since last March...of 08?

Climate Change and Health


Google Tech Talks October 30, 2006 Paul Epstein ABSTRACT Climate change has multiple direct and indirect consequences for human health. Heat waves affect health directly and are projected to take an increasing toll in developed and underdeveloped nations. The 2003 summer heatwave in Europe -- an event six standard deviations from the mean -- led to 21-35000 excess deaths in five nations, extensive wildfires, crop failures, nuclear plant shutdowns and melted 10% of the Alpine glacial mass. This event and Hurricane Katrina in 2005 demonstrate that climate change and its impacts may be surprisingly non-linear. Credits: Speaker:Paul Epstein

Will China Save Italy From Its Debt Crisis?


Transcript by www.newsy.com BY ANLI XIAO ANCHOR ERICA COGHILL Is China going to give a helping hand to a debt-burdened Italy? That's the word on the street according to CNN. RAMY INOCENCIO, CNN ASIA BUSINESS ANALYST message was apparently being sent from Rome to Beijing that 'Please help us out of our debt crises' and that turned out that the Italian officials and Chinese investors have recently held meetings at both countries' capitals." It's wouldn't be the first time China has gotten involved in the European debt crisis. In 2010, the Chinese government bought Greek bonds and was an avid bidder in Portuguese bond market. Seeking Alpha did the math for us, and says, yes, China has the money to help. "The Chinese Investment Corporation, the entity that seems to be considering an Italian debt investment, has about $400 billion worth of assets worldwide. With 4% of their assets in cash as of their latest annual report, the infusion of $16 billion or more into the Italian bond market should make rates much lower (and hence more manageable for the ECB and Europe to sustain the nation's troublesome situation)." However, a Charles Stanley strategist tells The Telegraph, this may not be a profitable venture. "It wouldn't be the first time the market had hoped that China would ride to the rescue...but the Chinese don't have a great track record. They participated in the Portugal bonds this year, and they lost money." And what if China buys Italy's bonds? Would China save Italy <b>...</b>

The British Pound traded mixed during the week and increased the most in a week last Friday, against the US Dollar, as gains in US equities decreased demand for the US currency. The President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, William C Dudley, said that the US central bank could act more to strengthen the economy, heightening the chance of more asset purchases. The British Pound was last seen trading at 1.5803, which is an increase of 0.33%. In the USA, Economists at JPMorgan Chase and Co are now predicting that the GDP will rise 3 percent in the final quarter, which is an increase from the previous prediction of 2.5 percent. As investors are still trying to determine the significance that the crisis in Europe may have on the US economy, data for the United States showed continuous improvement. However, the USA had its worst week for stocks in two months as traders wait to see how debt problems in Europe and the United States are tackled. For the week, the Dow fell 2.9 percent the Nasdaq decreased 4 percent. The Euro rose against the US Dollar on Friday, after weakening during the week.

Federal Reserve Cover Up? Well, DUH!


RevolutionNews.us -- Jan 07, 2010 -- Geithners Fed told AIG to hide backdoor bailout The Federal Reserve Bank of New York, during its $180 billion bailout of American International Group, Inc., instructed AIG to omit details of its purchase of certain toxic assets from a December 24, 2008, Securities and Exchange Commission filing, according to e-mails between the company and the Fed released Thursday. Using bailout money provided by the Fed, AIG paid a number of banks 100 percent of the face value of credit-default swaps, contracts tied to subprime home loans, at a time when other institutions were negotiating deep discounts for the paper. The names of the banks were also omitted from the SEC filing. The information was finally disclosed in March 2009 after the SEC challenged AIGs filing, prompting lawmakers and analysts to call the transactions a backdoor bailout of the banks. Topping the list of banks which benefited from the backdoor bailout of their toxic paper were Goldman Sachs and Societe Generale SA. AIG New York The e-mails, released Thursday by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), ranking member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, show the Fed wanted a number of other details about the AIG bailout withheld or their disclosures delayed. The coverage from Bloomberg News has all the gory details, including a non-denial denial that Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, who was then chairman of the New York Fed, had anything to do with the cover-up.

Forex Risk Aversion


www.ForexNittyGritty.com - Forex Risk Aversion Forex risk aversion helped the Swiss franc and Yen rise recently. What is Forex risk aversion? Risk aversion is when traders buy Yen, Swiss francs, or the dollar as a safe haven currency. Traders and investors see other currencies as risky and choose to move assets into currencies of countries that are economically stable. Traders seek currencies that are likely to rise in relation to others, not because of their own strength so much as because of the weakness of other currencies. At the current time the Swiss franc and the Yen are seen as safe haven currencies for those with Forex risk aversion. The US dollar is currently seen as less of a safe haven due to mounting debt problems of the USA. A congressional showdown that temporarily left repayment of US debts in doubt did little to help matters. Although Chinese support of Spanish debt has helped the Euro recently it fell off of the safe haven list some time ago. There are both long term and short term Forex risk aversion strategies. A long term strategy is to stay away from falling currencies such as the dollar and Euro. A commonly more profitable Forex risk aversion strategy is to move into safe haven currencies in times of stress and out just before ailing currencies recover. The US dollar, fore example, has been declared down and out several times over the years. Those who have doubted the demise of the greenback have often profited by buying dollars as they bottom out <b>...</b>
