Today I was on Live in prime time on Russia Today in Europe.. there is a fat chance in hell I will be invited to present my talking points on mainstream TV. All consuming propaganda, and the gatekeepers of fact and viewpoints alike are all part of restrictive and controlled “context that we live in.” We grew up being told to work hard to get ahead, do everything according to the system. Our system was there to help us. In crisis, in retirement, or in disability it would protect us.. Today our system seeks to bleed us dry, take from us, trick us, and then (controlling the information flow) turn each of us against one another. Some of the latest affronts against reform include the “ExPatriot Act” and the growingly intrusive and brazen security state. We are also lawless, rich and laws, and short on justice. That is the context What should I invest in because of this oppressive context and the collapse it courts Perhaps we need to think about the old adage, “invest in yourself.” But in our context that old axiom may not hold entirely true. Perhaps we need to update that idea a bit using critical thinking as our guide. Why don’t we pretend we are approaching a point where the US will be allot like Haiti.

Greek banks suffered the same fate recently as customers staged a run on many of the financial institutions. Today, the IBEX 35 (Spain) is trading lower by 1.36 percent, meanwhile, the FTSE MIB Index (Italy) is declining lower by 1.94 percent. Any way you slice it or dice it, Europe is a mess and is likely to get worse before it gets better. Traders should continue to follow the US Dollar Index as the major stock indexes continue to trade inverse to the US Dollar. Please understand that the US Dollar Index is now overbought in the short term and could be due for a small pullback. Some leading equities that could bounce if the dollar declines include ProShares Ultra Silver (ETF) (NYSEARCA:AGQ), Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE:NEM), ProShares Ultra DJ-UBS Crude Oil (NYSEARCA:UCO), and Yamana Gold Inc. (USA) (NYSE:AUY). These same equities are likely to decline if the US Dollar Index continues to rise.

This morning, all of the major stock indexes around the world are trading lower. The catalyst for the decline comes as JP Morgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM) reports a $ 2 billion trading loss caused by the a trader known as the “London Whale.” Traders are now wondering if other firms have similar trading losses out there. Just last week, Prudential Financial Inc (NYSE:PRU) plummeted after reporting earnings. The company sited a large derivative trading loss as the reason for the poor earnings results. This news from JPM is now the second report by a major firm that has admittedly taken a large loss from derivative trading. JPM has been one of the most outspoken firms against the controversial Volker Rule which would eliminate banks from proprietary trading. Other leading financial equities such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS), Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS), ProShares UltraShort Financials (ETF) (NYSEARCA:SKF) and BlackRock, Inc (NYSE:BLK) are all likely to be very volatile today.
