Well, nothing new here

"Bad news is great news again... Stock are surging (and bond yields tumbling) following the worst wage growth in history this morning."
Debt slaves - I talk about it frequently (in a slightly harsher tone than here)
"That is why we are called debt slaves – our hard work makes others extremely wealthy."

And to sum up my personal frustration in a nutshell - when the "experts" get to this point it can only make you wonder -

ZH posted The Most Important Market Trendline Since 2009 Was Just Broken. And here is the chart - 


On to the lie -

You've seen my LT charts. I agree with the above that an important TL busted, but .... does it make a difference A) where you start the trendline or B) what sort of market you are playing in (one with rules and one without)? About the only reason I still keep the charts and charbook today is that I truly believe that TA will get it right in the end. You can't run from the numbers. Alas, the question, when, still applies. 

Here is a monthly looks to compare to the above. Since all technicians see things in a different way ..... course I could show it to you from multiple takes as well - I like this the best.

SPX Monthly - Here off the '09 low that lower support diagonal looks quite different. Off the '09 low I believe the the upper blue channel diagonal - where that breaks resistance is an even bigger deal proving just how overbought we are. The rising pink support coming off the '11 lows (the STB Diagonal of Death), that having broken is a much bigger deal to me. Now notice how blue resistance has become support. Uh, yup. That's the line I'm looking at. Also notice that there are a few MONTHLY horrific negative divergences. The cycle tops are also kinda cool I think. Also note the 10/20 ma. Oh, and the 38% retracement for the whole move - let's call it 1600.

Well, someone several years made a bunch of brash predictions, two of the main ones were there would be an "event" that would end it all and that massive deflation would come before hyperinflation. I enjoyed (in a sick way) reading this - Deflation Is Winning – Beware!

"Like it or not, things are getting interesting again. The prudent move here is to watch developments very closely, position yourself defensively, and be ready to react nimbly, if necessary. After years of suppression, the forces of reality are threatening to overwhelm our managed global “”markets”‘. And it’s about damn time."

China market crash continues. At some point that will have to become a concern here. One would assume that the Fed is vigorously taking notes about what to and not to do to stop a bubble from bursting. 

And - Commodities Collapsed Just Before The Last Stock Market Crash – So Guess What Is Happening Right Now?



On to the lie - 


SPX Daily - I'm still somewhat taken off guard by this move south. I can't explain why. The fact that the charts were right and the fed did not crap all over yet another great short set up has me somewhat bewildered. That they stopped some two points shy of the ATH was puzzling. Those and other factors have me somewhat off balance. Maybe I'm simply over thinking things. I guess I'm fighting off their years of conditioning like some sort of fever. 2062 (again) is my number. 200dma, 2 diagonals and the 62 s/r all sit right there.

Well, conspiracy fact appears to be plying out (again) - from the North American Union to the NWO to all that is Agenda 21 - that one big umbrella of centralized control may have just been opened. Tsipras Stunner: Creditors Said "There Is No Point In Holding Elections" In Bailed Out Countries.

"Schauble: "Most member states are not yet fully prepared to accept the necessary constraints on national sovereignty. But trust me the problem can be solved.""
 We're all very aware of the revolving door between government and GS/MON/(insert any military supplier here) and how the big circle jerk works here in the US and across the world. Corporations/banks control government and they call all the shots (see TPP). In the post above it's clear that national sovereignty has become a secondary if not mute issue. 

Now, you need to stop and think about that, how the banks took them to this point and what the consequences of the banks actions will be for the innocent people of the country where western civilization was founded (oh the irony there). They are now a slave state to the banks. The banks have taken the ability of printing worthless paper, put it into circulation calling it money and used that worthless fiat to enslave a nation. The rest of the PIIS is next. Please see the Andrew Jackson quote that has been at the top of this blog since it began.

This is a good post that tells us Americans where we are today and where we are headed (ya think the banks are just gonna let us walk away from the $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities we have, the student loans, the mortgages, the credit card debt?) - Freedom Or The Slaughterhouse? The American Police State From A To Z

"As you can see, the warning signs are all around us. The question is whether you will organize, take a stand and fight for freedom, or will you, like so many clueless Americans, freely walk into the slaughterhouse?"

I've been preaching it for years, and it only continues to worsen and not get better. We are being enslaved to the banks. The elites are taking over. The police state is being set up. The Constitution is being destroyed. We're losing it all and not doing one damn thing to stop it. Pathetic! Y'all stand by and watch Jade Helm kick off TODAY and run here is the US. You better take notes. If you don't think this at the very least a dress rehearsal for martial law you should have your head examined.

"Lost national sovereignty", I guess there are worse scenarios, but not really.

"In other words, Greece will be liquidated piecemeal to repay creditors. In even other words, the proceeds from the Third Greek Bailout will not only not reach the Greek people, but Greece will have to sell itself in pieces to top off the creditors' funding needs.
Dijsselbloem concludes: "That is good for Greece, but also good for us. We are in the end the ones from whom the money is borrowed.""

So when Greece is finished selling off its last ship, acre, grape orchard, gas rights, what then? The debt will still not be paid off. Effectively, "Greece" now exists in name only. Wow.

China is still imploding, but that apparently is of no consequence here. I think that's bullish actually.

Well, we found out what one last resort was for failing markets was last night. Arrest! This is sort of the cherry on top of of the modern day, new normal, manipulated, corrupt market isn't it? Ultimate control. It's funny, some here doubt my harping on the growth of the nanny/police state and destruction of the constitution. Bears, you just got your death sentence. Ya think O is beyond such to protect his TBTJ bankster buddies? They resorted to blackmail at the bottom in 2008, such an action as making short selling (or selling at all) illegal would be the next most logical step here.  


Some can't see the Orwellian nightmare on the horizon refusing to remove their head from the sand. When the next greatest thing in global growth, the country that is about to replace the US as the economic leader of the globe resorts to such to save its markets, well, you can easily put two and two together. The question is, can you internalize and physically accept that 'it can happen here'? 

With China put to bed for now, don't forget that Greece is still in the air. Some sort of can kicking should be expected, but if not contagion control from the default is critical.


On to the lie- 

So much for the panic for closing under the 200dma. Futures soaring celebrating intervention is somewhat astounding to me. Free markets? Does anyone want a free market anymore, or are we entering a new era where everyone is OK with playing in a rigged casino? 

SPX Daily -  Critical resistance will be the round number and the 20, 50 and 100 dma's ranging from 2092 to 2101. 62, 71 and 82 areas will be intermediate resistance areas.

'Owned' should be the headlines about Greece this morning. Once again, delaying the inevitable, the banks and other creditors that are in way too deep over their heads will get the stick save (via loaning money they printed to themselves), and the sheeple of Greece will be put even further into debt servitude to their financial overlords. Folks, this is modern slavery. There is no other way to describe it. 

So sad, just like here in the US in 2008, they had the chance to right the ship, take their medicine, hit the reset button, clear the deck and become financially viable again one day, but instead they chose to go deeper in the red. They should have told the criminal banks to FO, but they did not. They had their chance and are apparently going to blow it. If I lived in Greece, I'd be packing my bags.

China, the one I told you not to ignore, is apparently in 1929 crash mode. The Chinese PPT is basically worthless (note to Chinese PPT - do it overnight). You can read all the headlines just about anywhere. Their crash even made GMA on TV today. I guess that is some sort of celebratory propaganda (us vs. them) thing maybe from the MSM. Not so funny when you are in your own (unadmittted) bubble and contagion can and will spread. 

The quote of the morning goes to ZH, 


"The SNB has declined to comment on whether it intervenened but we ask in all frankness, have we become so divorced from 'free markets' that China can blatantly enter markets to save them (and fail) and European markets can mysteriously go bid and no one bats an eyelid that this is all rigged."


On to the lie - 

Sell the potential Greece resolution news and be afraid of China? Is that the trade this morning? Who knows? The trade is going to be whatever interventionist BS they want it to be while they fend off contagion as long as possible.

SPX 15m - It's a simple chart, and I like it. No need to complicate things with 10 or 20 year monthly charts looking for targets with a 4 or a 5 handle quite yet. There is a chance - goodness I hate it - but a chance this move at the open is a backtest of busted s/r and a confirming move before heading higher. Of course I'd prefer it just puke up a lung or two here and take us all out of our misery, but I doubt that's going to happen (yet). NOTE - a lower low was set yesterday which is NOT a good omen. These more often than not lead to even lower lows.

July 4th 2015

Happy 4th of July to all of the STB faithful. Many thanks to each of you for your continued support and mainly participation in the commentary. It is you that makes STB. Thank you. 

I'm way overdue for a blow off old school rant, but I'm just so numb, apathetic, discontented, somewhat withdrawn now that all I've bitched about for the past 6 years is coming to pass. Conspiracy fact sucks. Being in touch with reality sucks. Not being able to cocoon and live the lie sucks. 

Not really, there is no place I'd rather be than smack freakin dab in the middle of whats real. Knowing what's coming is a far better place to be. The unprepared are in for a very rude awakening. The sheeple are being herded. 

This is an oldie but goodie and something you need to see as a reminder of just how far off the cliff we've fallen as a nation,  72 Types Of Americans That Are Considered “Potential Terrorists” In Official Government Documents 

Well then color me a terrorist then cause I fit multiple descriptions. How bout you? 

Hell when The U.S. Government Believes that the Founding Father Were Terrorists you know we're in trouble. Even worse, our veterans are the number one terrorist threat

I'll just briefly mention some of my hot spots and you can move along with your holiday - Sustainable Development, Agenda 21, Eugenics, Constitution Free Zones, persecution of Christians, (I'll stop there cause the list is too long) at least click and see the sites linked to know they are real and not just some sort of fearmongering crap. This shit is real, just ask Bill Gates

Now as for how this relates to the 4th and our founding fathers rolling over in their grave - I did not add the Freedom watch section to the blog each day cause I need filler. The corporate takeover of the globe is nearing completion (TPP). Everything our founding fathers fought to prevent, everything they warned us about is now coming to pass. You absolutely must see this. 

All the lives wasted. our progress, the awesomeness of this nation is being laid to waste via greed, and there ain't a damn thing we can do about it. We're a nation of sheeple reliant on the nanny state for everything. What a bunch of lazy ignorant fucks we've become, and we're gonna deserve what we get in the end. There are seven deadly sins, and we've managed to embrace them all. 

About the only happy way to end this post is to remember our founding fathers, what awesome principles they instilled and that they set us on the path to prosperity and success. It's just so sad that we've abused and wasted that success. 

Happy 4th and thanks again for all you do here at STB.

Can't recall the last time there was so much drama in the air and the futures were absolutely flat. 



On to the lie -

I am blown away that they did not ramp it for the holiday. If anything I'd suspect they fight hard to regain the round number on at least the DOW today. If they can't then times have definitely changed and not for the better. Their standard pattern for falls has failed to develop this time as well. 

SPX 5m - Gotta love double fib confluence at resistance. I must have misdrawn that upper resistance diagonal. I did change the rising channel to a wedge (which has broken down). Watch 57 - 62 support closely. 


SPX Daily - To give you a better idea of the cliff we're looking over ...... I think there is a good possibility if they don't manage a ramp today that the HnS appears to be in play, and the backtest of the neckline yesterday near 85 could have been a kiss of death. Target is around 2030. If the current lows break 2000 has to be the target.
