Is the market in worse shape today "down" at 10,913 or when it was 6,900?

Is the employment situation today better or worse than when we were losing -600,000 jobs per month?

How many more years do you want us to give you for your predictions of hyperinflation to come true? And your predictions of deflation? And stagflation? Want us to give you five more years on that? Or do you want to stick to your policy of never, EVER giving dates? That way you can never be wrong.

Coward.

[Communist ] China Is Quietly Unraveling as the World Frets Over Europe

Is [Communist] China Facing a Hard Landing?

As we limp towards the finish line of the third quarter, we're on track for what could be the fifth consecutive month of declines on the S&P 500. Stocks are down roughly 5% for September and commodities have been among the weakest performers with Copper down 25% plunge in the past 2 weeks that have pushed it to a 14-month low.

But "Dr. Copper" is not alone. Others tied to economic growth are feeling the pain. Silver, Coffee, Corn, and Wheat are all down more than the 10%. If you're looking for a culprit, you need look no further than [Communist] China, where Michael Darda, the chief economist at MKM Partners, points to copper and a hole host of other warning signs.

"We are seeing signs of stress. A big slow down in Chinese liquidity indicators, [Communist] China's yield curve spread has collapsed," Darda says in the attached clip. "We're seeing a tone and tenor to the forward business cycle indicators in [Communist] China that we haven't seen since 2008."

On the equity side, September has been brutal for [Communist] China. As the world worried about Europe, the benchmark Shenzhen Index quietly shed 12% and is now wallowing at a 14-month low. Compare that to a 3% haircut for the STOXX50 in Europe this month and the trouble-ahead story starts to gain traction.

"The recent trends are a sobering setback to the view that [Communist] China was just gonna motor on through and continue to be the locomotive of global growth," says Darda. He says 9% growth forecasts for [Communist]China are "several hundred basis points" too high and points out that a technical recession there is not necessary to inflict serious damage on commodity markets, emerging markets and large cap multi-nationals.

...

The technology slowdown threatens not just our financial markets, but the entire modern political order, which is predicated on easy and relentless growth. The give-and-take of Western democracies depends on the idea that we can craft political solutions that enable most people to win most of the time. But in a world without growth, we can expect a loser for every winner. Many will suspect that the winners are involved in some sort of racket, so we can expect an increasingly nasty edge to our politics. We may be witnessing the beginnings of such a zero-sum system in politics in the U.S. and Western Europe, as the risks shift from winning less to losing more, and as our leaders desperately cast about for macroeconomic solutions to problems that have not been primarily about economics for a long time.

The most common name for a misplaced emphasis on macroeconomic policy is “Keynesianism.” Despite his brilliance, John Maynard Keynes was always a bit of a fraud, and there is always a bit of clever trickery in massive fiscal stimulus and the related printing of paper money. But we must acknowledge that this fraud strangely seemed to work for many decades. (The great scientific and technological tailwind of the 20th century powered many economically delusional ideas.) Even during the Great Depression of the 1930s, innovation expanded new and emerging fields as divergent as radio, movies, aeronautics, household appliances, polymer chemistry, and secondary oil recovery. In spite of their many mistakes, the New Dealers pushed technological innovation very hard.

The New Deal deficits, however misguided, were easily repaid by the growth of subsequent decades. During the Great Recession of the 2010s, by contrast, our policy leaders narrowly debate fiscal and monetary questions with much greater erudition, but have adopted a cargo-cult mentality with respect to the question of future innovation. As the years pass and the cargo fails to arrive, we eventually may doubt whether it will ever return. The age of monetary bubbles naturally ends in real austerity.

...

Today’s aged hippies no longer understand that there is a difference between the election of a black president and the creation of cheap solar energy; in their minds, the movement towards greater civil rights parallels general progress everywhere. Because of these ideological conflations and commitments, the 1960s Progressive Left cannot ask whether things actually might be getting worse. I wonder whether the endless fake cultural wars around identity politics are the main reason we have been able to ignore the tech slowdown for so long.

However that may be, after 40 years of wandering, it is not easy to find a path back to the future. If there is to be a future, we would do well to reflect about it more. The first and the hardest step is to see that we now find ourselves in a desert, and not in an enchanted forest.
