Business and Common Law…

I couldn’t understand some parts of this article, but it sounds interesting…

Does this represent change or a continuance of the New World Order?

It’s been reported President-Elect Barack Obama is likely to nominate New York Federal Reserve Bank chief Timothy Geithner as his Treasury secretary.

After doing research for former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, he joined the Treasury in 1988, in its international division.

Geithner was a protege of Lawrence Summers, the former Clinton Treasury secretary.

In 2001, he became director of the International Monetary Fund’s policy-development and review department.

He was instrumental in the Federal Reserve’s efforts to find a buyer for Bear Stearns as it neared collapse, and in arranging financing for JPMorgan Chase, the acquirer. He also played a role in the Fed’s decision to open its discount window to investment banks to maintain liquidity in the financial system.

Doesn’t sound like change to me… but a solid New World Order background.

Actually, it appears to me that it wouldn’t be a loss to anybody. It think the other poster made a valid comment. Why should anyone (especially someone who apparently has two ids on this forum, ie angelajacab and ang101000) post private emails for someone else? Who is Menta? Is he/she too afraid to post? Has he been banned? Or is Menta really the other poster angelajacab/an101000? Why do you need two ids? And why do you post for someone else? This is a finance forum, why do you people play silly games??????????????????? The word “immature” seems to fit.

Inflation - the real threat to sustained recovery

The rise in global stock prices from early March to mid-June is arguably the primary cause of the surprising positive turn in the economic environment. The $12,000bn of newly created corporate equity value has added significantly to the capital buffer that supports the debt issued by financial and non-financial companies. Corporate debt, as a consequence, has been upgraded and yields have fallen. Previously capital-strapped companies have been able to raise considerable debt and equity in recent months. Market fears of bank insolvency, particularly, have been assuaged.

Is this the beginning of a prolonged economic recovery or a false dawn? There are credible arguments on both sides of the issue. I conjectured over a year ago on these pages that the crisis will end when home prices in the US stabilise. That still appears right. Such prices largely determine the amount of equity in homes – the ultimate collateral for the $11,000bn of US home mortgage debt, a significant share of which is held in the form of asset-backed securities outside the US. Prices are currently being suppressed by a large overhang of vacant houses for sale. Owing to the recent sharp drop in house completions, this overhang is being liquidated in earnest, suggesting prices could start to stabilise in the next several months – although they could drift lower into 2010.

In addition, huge unrecognised losses of US banks still need to be funded. Either a stabilisation of home prices or a further rise in newly created equity value available to US financial intermediaries would address this impediment to recovery.

Global stock markets have rallied so far and so fast this year that it is difficult to imagine they can proceed further at anywhere near their recent pace. But what if, after a correction, they proceeded inexorably higher? That would bolster global balance sheets with large amounts of new equity value and supply banks with the new capital that would allow them to step up lending. Higher share prices would also lead to increased household wealth and spending, and the rising market value of existing corporate assets (proxied by stock prices) relative to their replacement cost would spur new capital investment. Leverage would be materially reduced. A prolonged recovery in global equity prices would thus assist in the lifting of the deflationary forces that still hover over the global economy.

I recognise that I accord a much larger economic role to equity prices than is the conventional wisdom. From my perspective, they are not merely an important leading indicator of global business activity, but a major contributor to that activity, operating primarily through balance sheets.

Should Ben Bernacke, the new chairman of the federal reserve, use the Taylor Rule to determine expansion and contraction of money?

Millions of Americans are waking up to the fact that the Federal Reserve is bad, but very few of them can coherently explain why this is true

it’s important to note: these new laws apply to bank issued gift cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) and every state is affected in one way or another. Scrip-smart has a helpful comparison of new federal gift card law vs. state gift card law
