Good morning!  

I feel like I work at Pravda when I say “Markets are heading up this morning” – doesn't matter what's real, that's the news we're going to report.  The crops are always new records, factory production is always up and the 5-year plan is always on track…

Nothing can be further from the truth than the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which opened down 2.5% flew back to positive and then decided to finish down 3% after all – manipulation failed for the day over there. 

Problems in China are caused by their FAILURE to just lie back and accept the market manipulation going on on that side of the World.  Goldman Sachs (GS) has been finally chased out of metals trading as a Senate subcommittee began examining their “alleged” manipulation of commodities and, over in China, the Securities Regulatory Commission is probing the same kind of index manipulation that is commonplace in our own markets. 

Of course, if you want to see EPIC manipulation, you can't beat da boyz at the NYMEX, where they canceled all but 1,693 out of over 300,000 FAKE!!!! open orders that were placed in January, effectively shorting the US of over 20M barrels of oil in January.

Each contract represents 1,000 barrels scheduled for delivery to Cushing, OK, where the weekly inventory reports are tabulated and, by cancelling 99.4% of all the orders – the CRIMINALS at the NYMEX have deprived the United States of America of an economically vital resource in order to create an ENTIRELY ARTIFICIAL shortage of oil next month that their MEDIA LACKEYS will spin as an indication of demand increasing.  

I'm NOT joking, this is an act of economic terrorism that is happening right now, in this country, that will affect YOU in two weeks (the first January inventory report on the 7th) and will drive up the price of oil through market supply manipulation followed by a propaganda campaign that will sucker people into taking long positions (off the hands of the Banksters who are currently stuck with them) based on false information that will be spoon fed to you by the Corporate Media – in between commercials for banks and Oil companies.
