Michael Lewis Hits Back "Flash Boys": “This time I punched Wall Street in the balls”

  

  Michael Lewis has provided the brilliant account of the real life on the Wall Street in his "Flash Boys". The more presstidutes are bashing it, the more we like it. Everybody was "front run" on all accounts for years. All "conspiracy theories" are coming to the spotlight one by one now.

Jon Stewart And Matt Taibbi: Banksters, Presstitutes And Why Nobody Should Shed a Tear for JP Morgan Chase


"Matt Taibbi continues his brilliant work as one of the last real investigative journalists left at his best. Jon Stewart is on par translating the situation for those who has difficulties with concentration and reading. 
  We will ask our rhetorical question again: after LIBOR fraud, FOREX manipulations, Mortgage scam and Pension looting - Is The Gold Manipulation To Be Admitted Next?"


Greg Hunter: Dr Jim Willie - Dollar Mortally Wounded, Treasury Bond Toxic Paper And Gold


"Filter this interview with your own understanding of what is too far stretched and what has already happen. Jim Willie provides his Big Picture View, which definitely stimulates imagination. A lot of former conspiracy theories have happen to be true:Private FED, Rigged LIBOR, Manipulated FOREX, HFT, Manipulations in Gold and Silver. Some others will be coming into the spotlight from the heat of the Financial Wars played around Ukraine now."

Michael Lewis sits down for lunch at the Claremont Hotel in Oakland, Calif., looking like a man who is well-satisfied with the state of his current affairs. It’s easy to understand why. Lewis has an impressive publishing history, dating back to “Liar’s Poker” in 1989 and including “Moneyball,” “The Blind Side” and “The Big Short.” But right off the bat he tells me that that in its very first week, his new book, “Flash Boys,” has already sold more than 130,000 copies. That’s more than twice the sales, he says, of his previous high mark, “The Big Short.”
It’s the “biggest week in the history of my publishing firm,” he boasts.

Peter Schiff: Weak Jobs Report, Weather, US Dollar And Gold MUX TNR.v GLD GDX


  US Dollar has dived again below 80.00 level and closed today at 79.76. A lot of hot plays in NASDAQ in 2013 are in the official bear market now sliding more than 20% from the top. Gold has regained the $1,300 level and closed today at $1,308 with the intraday high of $1,315. Levitation in the markets will be very difficult to create now as the housing market is in a very real slowdown already vs a lot of estimated growth rates totally disconnected from economic reality.
  "Sale In May And Go Away" has already started in April,  while heads on Bubble TV are screaming that it is the buying opportunity and read the Flash Boys by Michael Lewis to understand how you have been "front run" in every markets for years by The Wall Street Insiders.

  "WEB Bubble 2.0 is bursting and SOCL - Social Media ETF on the chart above is the very good representation of what is happening with the hot plays of 2013. SOCL ETF is just a notch away from the official bear market with 19.4% decline from its top so far. As we have noted before, the hot IPO market is another sign of the important top in the equity markets, when insiders are selling out at the valuations totally disconnected from the real underlining economic situation."

 "CS. It did not take long for Putin to start its retaliation against the sanctions and excuse was presented by JP Morgan's block of some payments on the grounds that Bank Rossii was involved in transaction. Bank Rossii was on the list of sanctions and even its issued international credit cards were declined after that. Mr Putin said that he will open his personal account in that bank and now it became really personal. We are not judging who is right in all this mess created by CIA vs KGB 2014 War Games, but ultimately aimed to push China from its path of Dangerously Fast Rising Into Power by all means possible including the last asset of the Falling Empire - Military Industrial Complex. We are just observing the outcome. More."
