Fed Market Manipulation, Surmounting The Main Threat To Profits And Protection / Politics / Market Manipulation
By: DeepCaster_LLC
“Some people think that the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government Institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders.” - The Honorable Louis McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee in the 1930s

Manipulated Bond & Stocks Markets / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation
By: Captain_Hook
As suspected last week, mutual and hedge fund managers could not resist the temptation to push stocks higher in month end window dressing given the opportunity, so they did. And I wouldn’t doubt for a minute the bureaucracy’s price managers were told to make stocks look good at week’s end because of Geithnier’s trip to China, where he is on his first official US paper selling junket. There’s really no other explanation for why stocks mysteriously surged at the close on Friday due to futures buying. (Later Monday we found out it was broker related buying to aid their secondary issues the following week.)

How Manipulated Financial Markets Really Work / Stock-Markets / Market Manipulation
By: Stephen_Lendman
Wall Street's mantra is that markets move randomly and reflect the collective wisdom of investors. The truth is quite opposite. The government's visible hand and insiders control markets and manipulate them up or down for profit - all of them, including stocks, bonds, commodities and currencies.

By: Stephen_Lendman
This writer just completed a six-part series on Ellen Brown's remarkable 2007 book titled "Web of Debt." This article follows from it by picking up on the theme she struck, using L.

Frauds R' Us: The Scams and Crimes of Wall Street / Politics / Market Manipulation
By: Submissions
Danny Schechter writes: So many of us know in detail about all the false warnings and exaggerated claims that were used to justify the war in Iraq. By now, six years later, and after many books, reports, news stories and films (hopefully including my two books and film, Weapons of Mass Deception), we see the pattern of lies and deception. We realize that a fraud was committed against the American people and see what its consequences have been for the people of this country, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Banksters Remain Firmly in Charge of the "New" Wall Street / Politics / Market Manipulation
By: LewRockwell
Wall Street wants to regain your trust. Mutual fund managers, stockbrokers, Wall Street executives, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) want Americans to keep the faith that buying and holding stocks, for the long term, is a key to building personal wealth. This is a tough sell considering Americans have watched their 401(k)s become 201(k)s. Not to worry says the laughable SEC, they’ve got your back covered.

Misleading Jobless Claims Economic Data and Recessions / Economics / Market Manipulation
By: Tim_Iacono
One of the many "green shoots" that has popped up recently for the U.S. economy is the possible peaking of weekly jobless claims, what has been increasingly referred to as a "reliable" indicator for the end of recessions since 1967 when this data was first collected. The chart below, similar to the one published by CR in this item from a couple weeks ago shows the correlation.

Are The Financial Markets Addicted to Deception? / Politics / Market Manipulation
By: T_Anthony_Michael
The current self destruction of Crony Cowboy Capitalism has struck a death blow to the Anglo-American Corpocracy. This in turn will result in the long awaited demise of UK-US Imperialism and, ultimately, cause the downfall of the British/American Empire. The consequent deterioration of Civil Society by way of the ongoing financial/economic, political/social and moral/religious bankruptcy will lead to the inevitable collapse and dissolution of Western Civilization as we know it.

Wall Street Banks Trying to Rig Stress Test Results / Politics / Market Manipulation
By: Global_Research
New York, New York: Dick Durbin knows his way around the Senate. He’s been there a long time, long enough to know how things really work. Over the years, the man from Illinois has come to realize that it’s not the elected officials who are in charge. Last week, he said it was the bankers “who run the place” acknowledging that Senators may be in office, but not necessarily in power.

By: Money_and_Markets
