EU is crashing. EU has been crashing. China is crashing. Japan is the nation with the largest debt in the world and headed for a major crash. But some things are always consistent.. for example, you're still an idiot.

Excerpts: S&P Says 50-50 Chance Of Downgrading US To 'AA' -1

WASHINGTON (MNI) - The following is the first part of excerpts from a report published by Standard & Poor's Thursday with its views on the potential effects of each on the financial services industry, corporate borrowers, structured finance, public finance borrowers, as well as economies and markets around the world from the U.S. debt impasse:

In our view, the need for an agreement to raise the debt ceiling before it is breached -- which the government has said would occur on or around Aug. 2 -- remains a major risk to the U.S. economy, in our view. Because we see a real risk that efforts to reduce future deficits may meaningfully miss the targets that Congressional leaders and the White House have discussed, we put the likelihood that we would lower the long-term rating on the U.S. within the next three months and potentially as soon as early August -- by one or more notches, into the 'AA' category -- at about 50-50.

U.S. AAA Credit Rating Downgraded By Egan-Jones -- Moody’s and S&P May Follow



Egan-Jones Ratings Agency – who called the 2008 financial collapse and lead Moody’s and S&P in putting the U.S on Credit watch – Cut U.S Debt Rating From AAA status over the weekend.

The LA Times reported last week that S&P and Moody’s has served the U.S government a reality check. Specifically they have put the U.S credit rating on a “credit watch”, and warned they may cut the AAA credit rating status.

Egan-Jones Officially Cuts U.S. Credit Rating


Cutting a credit rating is significantly different that placing it on ‘watch’ or ‘under review’.

Most readers are likely fully aware that Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s have sent out serious warning signals about the potential downgrade of the United States AAA credit rating.

That said, another SEC officially recognized ratings entity has gone one step further and actually lowered Uncle Sam’s standing by one notch.

What firm is so bold and brazen to send this volley across Capitol Hill and down Pennsylvania Avenue?

Egan-Jones.

Unlike the supposed brand name rating agencies which did little to help ordinary investors going into our economic crisis, Egan-Jones’ business model differs markedly from the industry incestuous nature of its counterparts. The resulting lack of inherent conflict allows Egan-Jones to speak freely and boldly. What a novel concept.

dyna mo 07-21-2011 08:12 AM

well, i don't know if the egan-jones ratings impact anything but i will say that the political posturing re: the debt limit has impacted the economy already and if moodys (who is on record stating the debt ceiling is worthless, just remove it) and s&p downgrade our rating as a result, the impact will be off the charts, imo. i was reading about this the other day, when the u.s. came close to defaulting on ~150$ million once, the prime interest rate reacted with a full % point increase. trickle that shit down.........

Havent you all been listening? Everything will be absolutely better because winning for the R's means winning for the job creators, and as we know from history over the past 11 years, when you dont ask people to pay any taxes, you have jobs and prosperity for everyone.

The problem with you worry warts is you've taken your blinders off. Just put them back on and everything is great and smells nice too.

This is like 2007 all over again. News just keeps getting worse and worse, and stocks keep going up. "Buy on the dip!," everyone keeps yelling. I'm starting a major short position in the S&P. It's going to come down soon and hard.

Now your talking my language. If the world goes to shit guns and ammo will be the new currency. However for the same money spent on these weapons I could buy 10 pistol grip shotguns for $169 each, and how many boxes of 100 shotgun shells from wallmart for $24 a box? My personal stash is 1 AK47, 9mm,380, 7 shotguns. Ammo prolly 1000 rounds for all but the shotguns, I have like 50 boxes of 100 count 12 guage shells. Shotguns will be the king of the world if we have a apocalypse. My two cents lol

camperjohn64 07-21-2011 11:20 AM

My girlfriend made a comment, and I am starting to think she's right.

Take money out of the bank. If something "goes wrong", money will be good, but only for a little while. If you can't get your money out of the bank, you will have no window to buy food / water / fuel etc.

I don't think it will happen, but better safe than sorry.

interesting background, the manville projectile launcher was originally designed as a 12 gauge shotgun in the 30's and after being scrapped there was a huge surge in interest after the Dogs Of War movie came out and "Frankford Arsenal decided to renew the production with new materials and developed 12 ga, 25mm, and 40mm versions - calling it the Manville Projectile Launcher."

Also, being a homeowner with a invested retirement, you tend to lean towards government propaganda to bring collective confidence to the markets and to normalize society. WTS, there are very clear signs we're in a lot of trouble that won't be recognized by most Americans.

New Police manufactured fear for mass control.
Feds masquerading terrorist prevention to instill fear.
Useless wars to generate patriotic fervor and occupy the violent.
Politicians who grab for their corporate lobbying interest only.
Corporations who dictate tax terms, or lack of with threats of layoffs.
Massive debt that can't be paid back in three life-times.
President who lacks true leadership skills.
Federal Reserve who'll print more money regardless.
The public occupied with massive debt themselves, terrified.

A crash in inevitable because we are too far in debt as Americans bought into hope and change out of desperation. There were lot's of intelligent Jews who were marched off to their deaths with the same, hope and change ideology.

Obviously, it won't be that severe, but the concept of things will get better, with no positive direction option is just stupid. Society is degrading because we don't trust our policing, banks, politicians, the system, and sadly, each other.

As we go to work everyday to hang on to our financial and personal responsibilities we are oblivious that a crash is inevitable or how severe it will be. Again, the signs are clear as slow deliberate changes are occurring to prepare for the sudden fall.

That's how it's going to happen. You'll wake up one day and it's all over and they'll be chaos, anger, rioting, violence, and vigilantism. After all this subsides Americans will come together and understand a huge debt burden has been lifted. We'll spring back stronger with new rules in place, true confident leaders, and fresh memories of the worst case scenario. In this process we'll separate those who felt entitlements were their right, as they will suffer the worst being ostracized with public blame. In the end - we'll be stronger and wiser.

You see this was all planned by the rest of the world because we Americans grew displaced with entitlements causing our debt. As the rest of the world rebuilt from failed wars and political ideologies we grew fat and arrogant with confidence being the world reserve currency. Again, as the rest of the world understand the worst case scenario, our government turned into gangsters with our military and lost focus on how to generate stabilized true wealth. Meaning, why earn it when you can steal/exploit it and live in excess.

The crash will happen like this. Currently, there is a war going on between the dollar and the Euro. The debt ceiling debauchery is a well organized plan to see who blinks first because whomever holds out the longest gets to go on as normal. If the Euro fails it will only revalue the dollar as the worlds reserve and open up new markets in failed economies ie., a rally.

If the dollar fails the world will switch to a basket currency reserve with the Euro leading the way. I am certain this is what the rest of the world wants and to be honest, it's actually a good plan and inevitably the future.



spot on... :thumbsup

but the sheep will call you a tinfoil hat...

if the shit does hit the fan at some point, those sheep will be slaughtered by guys like me with lots of guns...
