US True Money Supply Growth Jumps, Part 1: A Shift in Liabilities

TMS-2 and Total Loans and Leases YoY change
The growth rates of various “Austrian” measures of the US money supply (such as TMS-2 and money AMS) have accelerated significantly in recent months. That is quite surprising, as the Fed hasn’t been engaged in QE for quite some time and year-on-year growth in commercial bank credit has actually slowed down rather than accelerating of late. The only exception to this is mortgage lending growth – at least until recently. Growth in mortgage loans is...

Praxeologi, den österrikiska skolans grundval – med Ola Nevander | #092 Radio Mises

2016-12-05

by

Ludwig von Mises-Institutet i Sverige: http://www.mises.se Nyligen höll Ola Nevander ett föredrag hos FMSF om praxeologi. Det som särskiljer den österrikiska ekonomiska skolan från andra synsätt är dess fundament och metod. Det positivistiska perspektivet hävdar att enbart det som kan mätas, prövas och falsifieras kvalificerar som vetenskap, och att ekonomisk vetenskap därför måste efterlikna fysiken; det innebär att varje ekonomisk ”lag” är bara...

Some Monday mornings are better than others. Others are worse than some. For one Amazon employee, this past Monday morning was particularly bad. No doubt, the poor fellow would have been better off he’d called in sick to work. Such a simple decision would have saved him from extreme agony. But, unfortunately, he showed up at Amazon’s Seattle headquarters and put on a public and painful display of madness.

Ludwig von Mises-Institutet i Sverige: http://www.mises.se Klassiska liberaler menar att allt kan privatiseras utom juridiken. Juridikprofessor David Dürr från universitetet i Zürich menar tvärtom att juridiken är det första som bör privatiseras, eftersom det är roten till alla monopol. Denna insikt gjorde honom för tio år sedan till anarkist. Han planerar att stämma staten för att den är stat. Hur fungerar privaträtt och hur skulle sådana...

Fidel Castro and the American Empire

Fidel Castro
The death of the brutal Cuban Communist dictator Fidel Castro closes the door, in some respect, on another disastrous page in US foreign policy history. For all the denunciations and criticism of Castro from conservative elements and exiled Cubans, his despotic rule was the outcome of decades of American imperialism which began with President William McKinley’s infamous decision to wage war on hapless Spain in 1898.

“Myths and legends die hard in America,” remarked Hunter S. Thompson in The Great Shark Hunt, nearly 40-years ago. These great myths and legends of America died long ago. Freedom. Liberty. Independence. Limited representative government. Sound money. Private property rights. All getting more and more replaced by regulation.

OUZILLY, France – Last week’s U.S. jobs report came in better than expected. Stocks rose to new records. As we laid out recently, a better jobs picture should lead the Fed to raise rates. This should cause canny investors to dump stocks.

Love him or Hate him: Trump is the Revolution Against the Establishment

The 2016 U.S. presidential elections are unprecedented: I don’t believe we have ever witnessed before a campaign year so toxic, so dangerously divisive and full of ad hominem attacks. Both camps have vilified the opposition and their followers, creating a schism in society. There has been no rational dialogue on the issues that truly concern the American public.

Kool-AID
In early 2016 gold had a big bull run. The precious metal rose close to 25% this year, pushed higher in a summer rally that peaked on July 10th. Gold experienced a bumpy ride over the remainder of the summer though, as investors became increasingly concerned about a potential rate hike by the Federal Reserve. Uncertainty returned to gold market and has intensified further since then.
