rantings and predictions over the past few months.

On speaking about the Fed's control..

...The recent assault on the price of oil is a good example. The sharp reversal from the recent highs probably had a helping hand from someone. There is no spare OPEC capacity and there was no release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to account for the reversal. The underlying message is loud and clear. They are still firmly in control and will do anything to promote their objectives whether one agrees with them or not.

What could turn control into chaos is the threat of war. An armada has been assembled in the Middle East, presumably to prevent a closure of the Straights of Hormuz. A Chinese general warned their troops to be ready for war with Japan over the ownership of islands recently purchased. China and Japan both need energy, and these islands indirectly involve the ownership and control of a great deal of it. Students of history know that wars often begin over key resources. There is no more key resource than oil.

For some people, wars are viewed as a good thing. Wars involve destruction. Wars divert attention from failing monetary systems and inescapable debt spirals. Wars also focus unemployed populations on perceived wrongs and away from their plight. As repugnant as the concept is to most people and societies, it is the history of the human race.

War is one of the two obvious wild cards in view. The other is the U.S. election. Neither can be predicted. As we await the outcomes of these events, we will have to navigate the temporarily becalmed financial markets and remain vigilant for new wild cards....
