Forbes: The Next Financial Crisis Will Be Hellish And It’s On Its Way
“There is definitely going to be another financial crisis around the corner,” says hedge fund legend Mark Mobius, “because we haven’t solved any of the things that caused the previous crisis.”

We’re raising our alert status for the next financial crisis. We already raised it last week after spreads on U.S. credit default swaps started blowing out. We raised it again after seeing the remarks of Mr. Mobius, chief of the $50 billion emerging markets desk at Templeton Asset Management.

Speaking in Tokyo, he pointed to derivatives, the financial hairball of futures, options, and swaps in which nearly all the world’s major banks are tangled up.

Save some cash my friend. It'll be a great time to buy a home. I remember watching a show a while back where one guy who had been down on his luck during the Great Depression was able to buy a home just by paying fifty dollars in back taxes to the city. Fifty bucks, bang, you got your home, mortgage free. Everything old is new again. The cycle will continue!

Great Depression-Level Unemployment in America


Current levels of unemployment are Depression-level numbers, especially when compared to Darby's figures.

For example, economist John Williams puts current U-6 unemployment at 15.9%. That's higher than 9 out of 12 years charted by Darby.

And there are certainly Depression-level statistics in some states. For example, official Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers put U-6 above 20% in several states:
California: 22.0
Nevada: 23.7
Michigan 20.3
(and Los Angeles County has 24.1% unemployment, higher than any of the Depression years as reported by Darby)
Williams puts SGS unemployment - which he claims is the most accurate measure - at 22.3%. That's higher than 11 out of 12 years charted by Darby.

Youngstown State University's Center for Working Class Studies puts the "De Facto Unemployment Rate" at 28.76%. I'm not sure if that compares to methods used during the Great Depression, but it surpasses all 12 out of 12 years charted by Darby.

Yeah, I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I've even started looking at land just for shits and giggles--and thinking about what I'd buy if it was cheap enough.

That's assuming I'll have the means to buy anything at all, of course, but it sure as hell doesn't hurt to think about it.

The markets just drip down for five weeks now. No fear either, vix is holding solid. If there was more fear and panic then maybe a bottom would be forming, but none. Is this a set up for a major downward move?

Let's hope that this time they won't try the "too big to fail" crap. Taxpayers shouldn't have to bail any banks out this time. If a bank fails, it fails, real simple. If the financial system fails, that's fine, the people will still be alive, perhaps with debt reduced. We can start over -- look at Iceland for inspiration!

There is no such thing as "Too Big To Fail"

Only "Too Big To BAIL"...

The sad truth is... In My Opinion... the U.S. Fed knows damned well that the crash is unstoppable...

Able to be delayed... yes.

They have been LITERALLY buying time in order to put their chess pieces in place.

When the Global Crash happens... WWIII follows almost immediately.

They are only putting off the inevitable...
