TREASURY YIELDS HEADED FOR RECESSION All Time Lows & Loss of Control

Streamed live 101 minutes ago

Thanks to the Fed’s “not” QE buying of short-term treasuries that began on August 21, 2019, the Fed’s key recession indicator, 3-month treasury yields vs 10-year treasury yields, were forcefully pushed out of inversion on October 11, 2019. But it didn’t last. Why?

 Because of the possible impact of the coronavirus on the global economy. But frankly, it runs much deeper than that.

This retest of inversions that began on December 4, 2018 are telling us that the Fed is losing control as are all central bankers.

What happens when an abuser begins to lose control? They attempt to grab even more control. Central bankers are no different and their traditional tools no longer work, which forces even greater experimentation, in an attempt to remain in control.

Good thing there is a leader in fiscal experimentation…Japan. What about gold? Spot gold in terms of Japanese Yen just concluded a major cup formation (key accumulation pattern) that began in March 1980! The next step would be the 203,368.4 billion yen all time top established in January 1980. At this writing, with spot gold at 171,703.5 billion yen and the BOJ committed to printing the yen into oblivion can a new spot gold high be far off? STAY IN THE KNOW!

Brad   ...looks like so far the little time Allawi has been in he's getting things done which is good.  We want to set the government for this revaluation to take place.  We want Iraq as stable as absolute possible...

Frank26   ...I believe a couple months ago Donald Trump invited MTA [PM Allawi]...MTA and Donald Trump talked about the monetary reform.  And apparently when this guy came to Washington D.C. he gave a complete pre-interview to many business owners of Iraq...this happened 4 or 5 months ago...When he came to see Donald Trump I believe he passed Donald Trump's litmus test...He was being interviewed to be Prime Minister IMO...Donald Trump is a business genius mastermind...This was prepared way in advance in silence...All that MTA is saying right now in Iraq has been talked and discussed thoroughly by Trump and MTA many months ago...IMO Trump has a vision for Iraq...

Samson:  Oil rises in hopes that production cuts will dispel the impact of the Coruna virus

5th February, 2020

Oil prices rose on news of OPEC and its allies studying greater production cuts to counter a possible decline in global oil demand as a result of the rapid spread of the Chinese Corona virus

The global benchmark Brent crude futures rose 31 cents, or 0.6 percent, to $ 54.27 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate crude futures increased 21 cents, equivalent to 0.4 percent, to $ 49.82 a barrel, and the two crude rose more than 1%

At yesterday's meeting, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, led by Russia, the group known as OPEC +, heard a Chinese envoy to the United Nations in Vienna yesterday to assess the impact of the Corona Virus outbreak on global oil demand and economic growth

Producers are considering further cuts to production and offering a meeting due in March to February

Meanwhile, US crude oil inventories increased in the week ending January 31 by 4.2 million barrels to 432.9 million barrels, according to the American Petroleum Institute data released yesterday, and the number is higher than analysts' expectations of an increase of 2.8 million barrels

The weekly report of the US Energy Information Administration is scheduled to be released later today, Wednesday   LINK

Samson:  International financial experts: Iraq paid Kuwait $ 49.2 billion and the remaining 3.2 only
5th February, 2020

The International Experts Committee confirmed, today, Wednesday, that Iraq paid Kuwait compensation 49.2 billion dollars and the remaining 3.2 billion dollars only

The committee, as the supervising authority for the follow-up of the DFI account and its alternative account, said in a statement, "Economy News" received a copy of it, that "the total amounts of compensation required by international decisions on Iraq in favor of Kuwait were 52.4 billion USD", indicating that "The amount paid from it until January 2020 amounted to 49.2 billion dollars, and the remaining amount of these compensation is 3.2 billion dollars

The committee expected to "pay the full amount in the first half of 2021 and close the file of compensation to secure the final exit from under Chapter VII in the event that oil revenues continue at the same current rates

All Iraqi revenues from oil exports are deposited into the "Iraq Development Fund", and the United Nations withdraws 5% of these revenues, which are the compensation granted to Kuwait for the 1991 war, while the Ministry of Finance pays all Iraqi debts before the government receives supervision of the "Development Fund for Iraq

The Financial Experts Committee was established on the basis of the Cabinet’s decision and started its work on 1/4/2007, as an alternative oversight body for the International Council for Advice and Supervision, which currently oversees the Iraqi public funds spent on the production and export of oil and petroleum products   LINK

Pete2001: seems like this would be paid now .... 3.2 billion if it is required to get out of Chapter VII....For Frank, MM, 2 cents, Delta is this needed to have RI done?? or anyone else?

Tommy17:   No.  IMO  check final article threads  Even the imf mid last year came out and said “ they were article 8 compliant. Iraq just needs to announce it.

DCDriver:  Just some thoughts:   To me it is not out of the realm of possibilities that Iraq is planning on changing their fiscal year to start on April 1st, the same as Kuwait.

Let's not forget that Kuwait was part of Iraq at one time. There could be some fiscal alignment that will take place with Kuwait in order to usher in a more cohesive monetary structure that will become the model of the Middle East, especially if the Iraq currency comes out at or around the same value as Kuwait.

This could be the beginning of things to come for neighboring countries to align themselves to a "hub" or epicenter that Frank speaks of.   Food for thought
