Regulatory Overhaul Equal Summers Job Creation Program? / Politics / Market Regulation

By: Axel_Merk

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleToday, the Administration is sharing its vision for the future of the financial system. To us, it seems more like a job creation program for Lawrence Summers, the Director of the White House’s National Economic Council. It’s long been rumored that he wants the top job at the Federal Reserve (Fed) should Fed Chief Bernanke’s term not be renewed in early 2010. Summers, a former Treasury Secretary, and known for his hands-on, at times confrontational approach, seems an odd fit for what is traditionally a job for calmer spirits.

Goldman Repayment of TARP Risks U.S. Governments Ability to Regulate Economy / Politics / Market Regulation

By: Pravda

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAmericans who even bother to examine the vanishing Twenty Dollar bills in their wallets are usually pretty clueless about the crusty old guy looking back at them. Few bother to wonder who he was or what he did to get his mug shot there. ‘Some President from back in the olden day’ is usually about the extent of the musing, if any.

Geithner's Thirst for Greater Regulatory Powers and Sir Alan of Selective Amnesia / Politics / Market Regulation

By: Rob_Kirby

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMarch 24, 2009 , I sat, watched and listened as U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Federal Reserve Chairman Benjamin Bernanke gave sworn televised testimony to a U.S. Senate Banking Committee.

The gist of the testimony and solutions posed by both Geithner and Bernanke were that the Federal Reserve / Treasury combo be mandated more regulatory power to cure the existing financial crisis and prevent future financial disasters from occurring – because their existing mandate was inadequate.

SEC Market Regulation and FAS 157 Contributions Towards Financial Markets Chaos / Stock-Markets / Market Regulation

By: Frank_Holmes

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleGood Intentions, Unintended Consequences - Not long ago, financial regulators told Congress that the year-old accounting rule known as FAS 157 had little to do with last year's string of high-profile bank failures. This blanket exoneration, however, is not supported by the evidence.

While I don't think FAS 157 is the only reason for the problems encountered by banks, brokerages and other financial firms, it seems that this rule and other regulatory actions may have played an unintended yet significant role by exaggerating the risks associated with the banks' heavily leveraged balance sheets.

Death Agony of Thatcherism Deregulated Financial System Model / Stock-Markets / Market Regulation

By: F_William_Engdahl

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDuring the end of the 1970's into the 1980's British Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and the City of London financial interests who backed her, introduced wholesale measures of privatization, state budget cuts, moves against labor and deregulation of the financial markets. She did so in parallel with similar moves in the USA initiated by advisers around President Ronald Reagan. The claim was that hard medicine was needed to curb inflation and that the bloated state bureaucracy was a central problem.

Fed Manipulating Market Prices, Gold, Oil and Bonds / Stock-Markets / Market Regulation

By: Rob_Kirby

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleQuestions Begging Answers - To say that markets have been behaving “strangely” recently is an understatement. In recent weeks and months we've been witness to historic lows in sovereign interest rates in-the-face-of record amounts of debt being issued by governments? We've seen the price of gold behave counter intuitively by “not rising” in-the-face-of unprecedented systemic global economic malaise? Last, but not least, we've witnessed a “complete flip-flop” in the traditional pricing of Brent Crude Oil [IPE-London] versus West Texas Intermediate [NYMEX-N.Y.]?
