SPREADING OPERATIONS

(/NOW SWITCHING TO GOLD) FOR NEWCOMERS, HERE ARE THE DETAILS

SPREADING LIQUIDATION HAS NOW COMMENCED   AS WE HEAD TOWARDS THE  NEW   NON ACTIVE FRONT MONTH OF NOV. WE ARE NOW INTO THE SPREADING OPERATION OF BOTH SILVER AND GOLD (WILL BE SMALL AS SPREADERS DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO NOVEMBER)

HERE IS A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF HOW THE CROOKS FLEECE UNSUSPECTING LONGS IN THE SPREADING ENDEAVOUR ;MODUS OPERANDI OF THE CORRUPT BANKERS AS TO HOW THEY HANDLE THEIR SPREAD OPEN INTERESTS:HERE IS HOW THE CROOKS USED SPREADING AS WE ARE NOW INTO THE  NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF OCT HEADING TOWARDS THE NON  ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF NOV., FOR BOTH GOLD AND SILVER:

YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE THAT THE COMEX OPEN INTEREST  STARTS TO RISE BUT SO IS THE OPEN INTEREST OF SPREADERS. THE OPEN INTEREST IN WILL CONTINUE TO RISE UNTIL ONE WEEK BEFORE FIRST DAY NOTICE OF AN UPCOMING  ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH (NOV), AND THAT IS WHEN THE CROOKS SELL THEIR SPREAD POSITIONS BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME OF THE DAY.  THEY WILL USE THE SELL SIDE OF THE EQUATION TO CREATE THE CASCADE (ALONG WITH THEIR COLLUSIVE FRIENDS) AND THEN COVER ON THE BUY SIDE OF THE SPREAD SITUATION AT THE END  OF THE DAY. THEY DO THIS TO AVOID POSITION LIMIT DETECTION. THE LIQUIDATION OF THE SPREADING FORMATION CONTINUES FOR EXACTLY ONE WEEK AND ENDS ON FIRST DAY NOTICE.”

WHAT IS ALARMING TO ME, ACCORDING TO OUR LONDON EXPERT ANDREW MAGUIRE IS THAT THESE EFP’S ARE BEING TRANSFERRED TO WHAT ARE CALLED SERIAL FORWARD CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS AND THESE CONTRACTS ARE LESS THAN 14 DAYS.  ANYTHING GREATER THAN 14 DAYS, THESE MUST BE RECORDED AND SENT TO THE COMPTROLLER, GREAT BRITAIN TO MONITOR RISK TO THE BANKING SYSTEM.  IF THIS IS INDEED TRUE, THEN THIS IS A MASSIVE CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD AS WE NOW WITNESS A MONSTROUS TOTAL EFP’S ISSUANCE AS IT HEADS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE

First, here is an outline of what will be discussed tonight:

1.Today, we had the open interest at the comex, in SILVER, FELL BY A HUGE SIZED 6188 CONTRACTS OI TO  128,967AND FURTHER FROM OUR COMEX HIGH RECORD //244,710(SET FEB 25/2020).  THE LAST RECORDS WERE SET  IN AUG.2018 AT 244,196 WITH A SILVER PRICE OF $14.78/(AUGUST 22/2018)..THE PREVIOUS RECORD TO THAT WAS SET ON APRIL 9/2018 AT 243,411 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS WITH THE SILVER PRICE AT THAT DAY: $16.53). AND PREVIOUS TO THAT, THE RECORD  WAS ESTABLISHED AT: 234,787 CONTRACTS, SET ON APRIL 21.2017 OVER  5 YEARS AGO.  

EFP ISSUANCE 200 CONTRACTS

OUR CUSTOMARY MIGRATION OF COMEX LONGS CONTINUE TO MORPH INTO LONDON FORWARDS  AS OUR BANKERS USED THEIR EMERGENCY PROCEDURE TO ISSUE:

DEC 200  ALL OTHER MONTHS: ZERO. TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE:  200 CONTRACTS. EFP’S GIVE OUR COMEX LONGS A FIAT BONUS PLUS A DELIVERABLE PRODUCT OVER IN LONDON.  IF WE TAKE THE  COMEX OI  LOSS OF 6188 CONTRACTS AND ADD TO THE 200  OI TRANSFERRED TO LONDON THROUGH EFP’S,

WE OBTAIN A VERY GIGANTIC SIZED LOSS  OF 5988 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS FROM OUR TWO EXCHANGES. 

THUS IN OUNCES, THE LOSS  ON THE TWO EXCHANGES 29.940MILLION OZ//

OCCURRED WITH OUR LOSS IN PRICE OF  $0.00….. OUR SPEC SHORTS HAVE NOWHERE TO HIDE!

LET US BEGIN:

THE TOTAL COMEX GOLD OPEN INTEREST FELL BY A HUGE SIZED 12,975 CONTRACTS TO 449,542 AND FURTHER FROM THE RECORD THAT WAS SET IN JANUARY/2020: {799,541  OI(SET JAN 16/2020)} AND  PREVIOUS TO THAT: 797,110 (SET JAN 7/2020). AND THIS COMEX DECREASE OCCURRED WITH OUR  TINY FALL IN PRICE OF $2.10IN GOLD PRICING TUESDAY’S COMEX TRADING. WE ALSO HAD A FAIR SIZED EFP (1232 CONTRACTS). . THEY WERE PAID HANDSOMELY  NOT TO TAKE DELIVERY AT THE COMEX AND SETTLE FOR CASH. IT SEEMS THAT SPEC SHORTS ARE STILL HAVING TROUBLE COVERING THEIR HUGE SHORTFALL.

WE NORMALLY HAVE WITNESSED  EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICALS ISSUED BEING SMALL AS IT JUST TOO COSTLY FOR THEM TO CONTINUE SERVICING THE COSTS OF SERIAL FORWARDS CIRCULATING IN LONDON. HOWEVER, MUCH TO THE ANNOYANCE OF OUR BANKERS, THE COMEX IS THE SCENE OF AN ASSAULT ON GOLD AS LONDONERS, NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND ANY PHYSICAL ON THAT SIDE OF THE POND, EXERCISE THESE CIRCULATING EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICALS IN LONDON AND FORCING DELIVERY OF REAL METAL OVER HERE AS THE OBLIGATION STILL RESTS WITH NEW YORK BANKERS. IT SEEMS THAT ARE BANKERS FRIENDS ARE EXERCISING EFP’S FROM LONDON AND NOW THEY ARE LOATHE TO ISSUE NEW ONES.

EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL ISSUANCE

WE ARE NOW IN THE NON -ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF NOV..  THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED A FAIR SIZED TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS.,

THAT IS 1737 EFP CONTRACTS WERE ISSUED:  ;: ,  . 0 DEC :  1737& ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS:

TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 1737CONTRACTS 

WHEN WE HAVE BACKWARDATION,  EFP ISSUANCE IS VERY COSTLY BUT THE REAL PROBLEM IS THE SCARCITY OF METAL AND IT IS FAR BETTER FOR OUR BANKERS TO PAY OFF INDIVIDUALS THAN RISK INVESTORS ESPECIALLY FROM LONDON STANDING FOR DELIVERY. THE LOWER PRICES IN THE FUTURES MARKET IS A MAGNET FOR OUR LONDONERS SEEKING PHYSICAL METAL. BACKWARDATION ALWAYS EQUAL SCARCITY OF METAL!

ON A NET BASIS IN OPEN INTEREST WE LOST THE FOLLOWING TODAY ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES: A STRONG SIZED  TOTAL OF 11,038 CONTRACTS IN THAT 1737 LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS FORWARDS TO LONDON AND WE HAD A HUGE SIZED  COMEX OI  LOSS OF 12,975  CONTRACTS..AND  THIS STRONG SIZED LOSSON OUR TWO EXCHANGES HAPPENED WITH OUR FALL IN PRICE OF GOLD $2.10/WE ARE WITNESSING SOME SPEC SHORTS COVERING THEIR SHORTFALL. BANKERS CONTINUE  AS NET BUYERS OF COMEX GOLD CONTRACTS AS THEY HAVE BEEN NET LONG FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS.  WE ALSO HAD SOME ADDITIONAL  NEWBIE SPECS GOING LONG WITH THE LOWER PRICE.  IT LOOKS LIKE OUR SPEC SHORTS ARE IN DEEP TROUBLE  THE MAIN LOSS WAS DUE TO SPREADER LIQUIDATION

// WE HAVE A STRONG AMOUNT OF GOLD TONNAGE STANDING NOV   (26.289TONNES),

CALCULATIONS FOR THE AMOUNT OF GOLD STANDING FOR NOVEMBER.

For the front month of NOVEMBER we have an oi of 1833 contracts having LOST 22 contracts.   We had  36 notices served on TUESDAY so we gained a HUGE 14 CONTRACTS or an additional 1400 OZ (0.0435ONNES) will stand in this non active month of November.  We will have Nov gold tonnage standing increase daily from this day forth until the end of the month.

This queue jumping originates in London with the exercising of London based EFP’s for comex gold.

December LOST A SMALL 31,613contracts DOWN to 139,382 DEC WILL BE A DILLY OF A DELIVERY MONTH.

JANUARY  GAINED 45contracts to stand at 590

February gained 21,133contacts up to 272,037

We had 36 notice(s) filed today for 360 oz 


Today, 0 notice(s) were issued from J.P.Morgan dealer account and  0  notices were issued from their client or customer account. The total of all issuance by all participants equate to 9 contract(s) of which 0   notices were stopped (received) by  j.P. Morgan dealer and  4 notice(s) was (were) stopped/ Received) by J.P.Morgan//customer account and 0 notice(s) received (stopped) by the squid  (Goldman Sachs)

To calculate the INITIAL total number of gold ounces standing for the NOV. /2022. contract month, 

we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (6628) x 100 oz , to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of  (NOV 1833 CONTRACTS)  minus the number of notices served upon today 9 x 100 oz per contract equals 845200OZ  OR 26.289TONNES the number of TONNES standing in this   non active month of NOV. 

thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the NOV. contract month:

No of notices filed so far (6628x 100 oz+   (1833 OI for the front month minus the number of notices served upon today (9} x 100 oz} which equals 845,200 oz standing OR 26.289  TONNES in this NON active delivery month of NOV..

TOTAL COMEX GOLD STANDING:  26.289 TONNES  (A HUMONGOUS STANDING//NEW RECORD FOR NOV (GENERALLY THE POOREST DELIVERY MONTHS FOR A NON ACTIVE MONTH)

silver open interest data:

FRONT MONTH OF NOV OI: 140 CONTRACTS HAVING GAINED 60 CONTRACT(S.) 

WE HAD 7  NOTICES FILED ON TUESDAY, SO WE GAINED 67 CONTRACTS OR AN ADDITIONAL 335,000 OZ WILL STAND

FOR SILVER IN THIS VERY NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF NOVEMBER.

DECEMBER SAW A LOSS OF 11,036 CONTRACTS DOWN TO 31,927

 (WE WILL HAVE A DANDY DEC. DELIVERY MONTH AS THE CONTRACTION IS GOING VERY SLOWLY)

JANUARY SAW A GAIN OF 90 CONTRACTS UP TO 1475 CONTACTS.

TOTAL NUMBER OF NOTICES FILED FOR TODAY:9 for 45,000  oz

Comex volumes:35,691// est. volume today// poor   

Comex volume: confirmed yesterday: 95,236 contracts (  huge)

To calculate the number of silver ounces that will stand for delivery in NOV. we take the total number of notices filed for the month so far at  586 x  5,000 oz = 2,930,000 oz 

to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of NOV( 140 and the number of notices served upon today 9x (5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.

Thus the  standings for silver for the NOV../2022 contract month: 586 (notices served so far) x 5000 oz + OI for front month of NOV (140)  – number of notices served upon today (9x 5000 oz of silver standing for the NOV. contract month equates 3,585,000 oz. 

We will gain in silver oz standing from this day forth until the end of the month.

the record level of silver open interest is 234,787 contracts set on April 21./2017 with the price on that day at $18.42. The previous record was 224,540 contracts with the price at that time of $20.44

Highlights From First FTX Bankruptcy Hearing: “Substantial Amount” Of FTX Assets Stolen, “Dueling” Bahamas Liquidation Comes To A Head

TUESDAY, NOV 22, 2022 – 10:42 PM

Today at 11am ET, the first FTX bankruptcy court hearing finally took place in Delaware bankruptcy court before Judge John Dorsey, the official start of what will be a long, complex and unprecedented chapter 11 case; this is what we have learned so far (courtesy of the WSJ and Bloomberg).

  • A “substantial amount” of failed crypto exchange FTX’s assets is missing and may have been stolen as a run on customer deposits and a liquidity crunch precipitated a crisis of leadership and led the firm to collapse, FTX lawyer James Bromely said in court
  • “FTX was in the control of inexperienced and unsophisticated individuals, and some or all of them were compromised individuals,” said James Bromley, counsel to FTX’s new management, at its debut appearance at the Delaware bankruptcy court after the failed exchange filed for the largest-ever crypto bankruptcy case earlier this month.
  • FTX’s rapid downfall triggered an “unprecedented” bankruptcy, causing many standard procedures, such as this hearing, to be delayed.
  • Information about FTX’s biggest creditors will remain redacted for now.
  • The dueling liquidation proceedings will move to Delaware, where the Chapter 11 case is being heard.  Judge Dorsey said he will sign an order formally moving a Chapter 15 bankruptcy case filed by Bahamian liquidators from New York to Delaware.
  • FTX expanded the number of affected customers and creditors from a “million” to millions.”

Some more details from Bromley’s initial disclosures:

  • In his initial comments, Bromley recounted some of the events leading up to the company’s sudden collapse, alleging major failures against its former leadership under co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried.
  • “What we have here is a worldwide, international organization, but which was run as a personal fiefdom of Sam Bankman-Fried.” Mr. Bromley said.
  • FTX’s new management and advisers are implementing market-standard controls for the firm’s accounting, audit, cash management, human resources, risk management and data management systems, Bromley said. He described the fall of FTX as “one of the most abrupt and difficult collapses in the history of corporate America and the history of corporate entities around the world. ” 
  • FTX is also “suffering from cyber attacks” that have occurred on the day the firm filed bankruptcy, the days following the chapter 11 filing, and still continue, Bromley said. FTX is in “constant communication” with the Justice Department and the cybercrimes unit of the (Democrat controlled) US attorneys office in New York, which has opened a criminal investigation (whatever happened to the previously reported probe that was launched by the Democrat-controlled AG of SDNY months ago – did it get bogged down in too many donations?).

In response, Judge Dorsey said he would grant a number of requested motions filed by FTX to help the company manage its bankruptcy, including the to redact for now the identities of customers with funds frozen on the exchange.

FTX management has said it may need until January to compile a complete balance sheet detailing the company’s total assets and liabilities, but some business divisions appear to be solvent. The firm has located approximately $1.4 billion in cash that it says belongs to the business, more than double the figure given in a report to the court last week. Most of that cash – $1.24 billion – is located in the Alameda subsidiary. Investment bank Perella Weinberg has been hired to explore selling any salvageable units out of bankruptcy (earlier there were reports that Tron network founder Justin Sun was eyeing some FTX assets).

FTX’s lawyer also said it has received requests from both the U.S. House and Senate to have Mr. Ray appear before Congress in December.

In an especially interesting twist, one which potentially involves SBF’s strategy on how to keep stolen assets close by at hand, Judge Dorsey says he will sign an order formally moving a Chapter 15 bankruptcy case filed by Bahamian liquidators from New York to Delaware. In response, Chris Shore who is representing the dueling Chapter 15 liquidators in the Bahamas, said “we’re going to try to work this out” with the Chapter 11 debtors.

As a reminder, court-appointed liquidators in the Bahamas previously said the local subsidiary controls private keys needed to transfer crypto in and out of the entire FTX complex, once estimated to hold around $16 billion in assets. As such, some have speculated that the Bahamas govt may be in cahoots with SBF himself to keep much of the stolen assets on the Bahamas. While this has been unconfirmed, it is notable just a few days ago, Bankman-Fried liked a Tweet in which it was suggested that the Bahamanian Securities Commission was corrupt and would help SBF keep the stolen funds.

Here is how the WSJ explains this tension: “some FTX assets are tied up in the Bahamas, where the firm relocated last year as the country sought to become a destination for digital currency firms worldwide. Public officials there seized the digital assets of FTX’s local operations earlier this month, which the new management has characterized as an unauthorized transfer. The Securities Commission of the Bahamas, the lead local authority investigating FTX’s collapse, has confirmed that asset transfer, but said it moved the coins “for safekeeping” in accordance with local laws.”

Court-appointed liquidators in the Bahamas have said the local subsidiary controls private keys needed to transfer crypto in and out of the entire FTX complex, once estimated to hold around $16 billion in assets.

That explains why Chris Shore hinted that there “could” be conflict between the liquidators in the Bahamas and the FTX bankruptcy lawyers.

“There is a tension that is going on right now,” Shore says, referring to bankruptcy rules in the US and efforts by the Bahamas liquidators to get control of assets and information about FTX’s collapse. It is understandable why both regulators want control over the Bahamanian subs – that’s where most of the remaining money can be found, and if SBF is indeed working on collusion with local corrupt authorities, he may walk out of all this a billionaire.

In any event, how Judge Dorsey rules on the treatment of the Bahamas sub may have the biggest consequence for the outcome of this bankruptcy case.

Elsewhere in the hearing, FTX has said that it will need months to sort through claims from customers as it sifts through the bad bets at its affiliated trading firm Alameda Research, which tipped FTX into bankruptcy. It hasn’t detailed how much it owes to more than one million estimated customers.

Lawyers representing FTX are also seeking court approval to keep paying the remaining employees on the payroll, protect the money remaining inside FTX’s bank accounts and pay vendors that it deems critical to the business.

SBF Issues Another Rambling Apology And “Description Of What Happened”, Comes Off As Disturbed Sociopath

WEDNESDAY, NOV 23, 2022 – 06:20 AM

He just can’t help himself: disgraced sociopath, record-breaking fraudster and prolific Democratic donor – not necessarily in that order – Sam Bankman-Fried, has issued another apology to his staff in a letter that outlined a crash in “collateral” to less than $9 billion from $60 billion.

“I didn’t mean for any of this to happen, and I would give anything to be able to go back and do things over again,” the corpulent 30-year-old who may or may not be in the Bahamas apologized yet again in the message sent to employees Tuesday, although he really should be apologizing to the millions of clients whom he wiped out. Alas, like the recurrent ramblings of a psychopath, Sam’s takeaway was that the implosion at FTX was the side-effect of an unfortunate bank run, and had nothing to do with SBF’s actions; that’s because SBF still refuses to take any responsibility for what happened and makes zero admission that the factors that led to this historic bankruptcy were in his control all along. Sam claims that he didn’t “realize the magnitude of risk.” His main remorse – like that of any pathological individual – is that he got caught.

Still don’t believe us he was a sociopath? Read this:

I didn’t mean for any of this to happen, and I would give anything to be able to go back and do things over again. You were my family. I’ve lost that, and our old home is an empty warehouse of monitors. When I turn around, there’s no one left to talk to. I disappointed all of you, and when things broke down I failed to communicate. I froze up in the face of pressure and leaks and the Binance LOI and said nothing. I lost track of the most important things in the commotion of company growth. I care deeply about you all, and you were my family, and I’m sorry.

No he isn’t, and if it wasn’t his fault, whose fault was it? Well, as he “describes” the sequence of events, you see it was all the market’s fault as a slide in digital-asset markets in spring roughly halved collateral from $60 billion to $30 billion, while liabilities were $2 billion. A combination of a credit squeeze, a further selloff in virtual coins and a “run on the bank” left collateral at $9 billion ahead of FTX’s Nov. 11 bankruptcy, he wrote. The estimate for liabilities had reached $8 billion by then. Here is how, in his words, what was initially a $58 billion overcollateralized balance sheet ended up having more liabilities than assets.

“I did not realize the full extent of the margin position, nor did I realize the magnitude of the risk posed by a hyper-correlated crash,” Bankman-Fried said. He didn’t give exact details on the makeup of the collateral or the liabilities. If he did, it would look something like this chart from Morgan Stanley:

What happens next is what any sniveling sociopath posing as a CEO would say: I had no idea any of this could happen:

I did not realize the full extent of the margin position, nor did I realize the magnitude of the risk posed by a hyper-correlated crash.

And it is here, that we get the first admission that something nefarious happened: i.e., loans  – to related parties, such as the $4 billion “given” from FTX to SBF – and the “secondary sales” which we now knows SBF pocketed some $300 million for personal use.

The loans and secondary sales were generally used to reinvest in the business—including buying out Binance—and not for large amounts of personal consumption.

And so, ladies and gents of the jury, would you consider a $40 million penthouse to be a “large amount of personal consumption.” And what about a private jet: in this day and age everyone needs onehow can one possibly define that as “large amount of personal consumption.” As for the meaning of “generally”, we are confident SBF’s close buddy Bill Clinton will give him the proper definition of that word.

Prudently, there was zero mention in Sam’s meandering word salad that FTX had illegally commingled and sent billions in customer funds to SBF’s personal hedge fund, Alameda, which despite frontrunning virtually every crypto transaction still lost $3.7 billion before 2022. That’s ok, Sam can discuss that in court.

There was, however, the usual lies, including SBF’s increasingly warped representation of reality, which is to be expected: as noted above, he is after all, a sociopath.

We likely could have raised significant funding; potential interest in billions of dollars of funding came in roughly eight minutes after I signed the Chapter 11 docs. Between those funds, the billions of dollars of collateral the company still held, and the interest we’d received from other parties, I think that we probably could have returned large value to customers and saved the business.

Narrator: none of this happened, and none of this will happen either:

Maybe there still is a chance to save the company. I believe that there are billions of dollars of genuine interest from new investors that could go to making customers whole. But I can’t promise you that anything will happen, because it’s not my choice.

That’s right: it is now all in the hands of the person who presided over the Enron bankruptcy and who thinks your fraud is way worse.

And speaking of fraud, there was one sentence in the whole letter where this pathological liar may have told the truth, if inadvertently:

… None of this changes the fact that this all sucks for you guys, and it’s not your fault, and I’m really sorry about that. I’m going to do what I can to make it up to you guys—and to the customers—even if that takes the rest of my life. But I’m worried that even then I won’t be able to.

No, you won’t be able to, but when it comes to “the rest of your life”, both the “guys” and the customers who you left with nothing because of your infinite greed, fraud and incompetence, they all have an idea where you can spend it.

Whether or not that happens will depend on just how broken the US legal system is, where a few million in donations to prominent democrats may be all it takes to get a lifetime “get out of jail” card.

FTX Collapse Highlights the Extreme Depth of US Corruption

Steve Brown…

Leave a reply

Opening a fortune cookie at an Asian restaurant only to find an FTX advert inside well illustrates just how extant and perfidious western fraud has become. Powers-that-be in crooked Vanguard-BlackRock markets leapt on the crypto bandwagon to assist in laundering Fed funny money, to sterilize free capital, launder it, and keep easy Fed thin-air dollars out of gold and silver.

Note that highly criminalized operators like BlackRock, Vanguard, StateStreet, etc pushed GBTC, Microstrategy, ARKK, RIOT (for example) on the forever greedy/gullible public with CNBC and Bloomberg marketing scams, supported by dodgy exchanges. FOMO marketing — led by the detritus who rule — was just one part of the plan.

With so much capital and political power (related to that capital) at stake, and the ability for bitcoin/crypto to sterilize capital as well as launder it, there was never any prospect that bitcoin would be the revolutionary holy grail to topple the criminal western monetary system – and its dirty banks – that shills like Max Keiser, Mike Saylor, and Stacy Herbert said it would.

The punters that Keiser and Musk suckered into crypto play on the same slippery field as the Bank of Big, but at least the Bank of Big has some window dressing of trust, and perhaps some accountability, whereas the depraved gen z drug addicts of crypto have none. Link: https://nypost.com/2022/11/21/polyamory-pills-inside-sam-bankman-frieds-ftx-party-pad/

Now it appears that the MSM is beginning to “black hole” the FTX collapse details and ‘Epstein’ the fraud. Search for ‘Sam Bankman Fried flees’ on google… latest reports date from nine days ago and more. Whether in the Bahamas (…or not) so far as we are aware no Interpol red notice or US federal arrest warrant has been issued for his arrest… which is astounding and well illustrates how amoral and corrupt the “democracy” of censorship and cancel culture in the former United States has become.

Instead of “Bankman-Fried” fleeing for Argentina – as erroneously reported by others – it appears the best that the failed Congress can do is to invite this inhuman piece of excrement to a Capitol hearing … where he will no doubt be scolded a bit by Congress members (owned by the very Wall Street scammers who allowed FTX to ever happen in the first place) and then allowed to leave without an arrest.

Meanwhile plenty in the crypto sphere still say the FTX fraud represents “growing pains” and “teething issues” for crypto. That’s crap. Crypto – all of it – walks talks and behaves like a scam. And that’s the crypto scam… “stablecoins” “tokens” or whatever crypto-con fantasy you wish to describe, obfuscated in whatever acronym terms, jargon, insider buzz words, or utter nonsense that seem persuasive in prolonging the fraud.

China Restricts Movement Across iPhone City

WEDNESDAY, NOV 23, 2022 – 02:00 PM

Update (1100ET):

China’s Zhongzhou, home to Foxconn’s massive iPhone factory, will begin to enforce mobility restrictions across eight districts in main urban areas on Friday. The reason, well, authorities blame it on ‘rising Covid infections,’ though we should note that the new restrictions come as massive unrest has erupted at the factory of more than 200,000 workers. 

Zhongzhou authorities posted a statement on its WeChat page on Wednesday about mobility restrictions from Friday through Sunday. 

“At present, the epidemic situation in our city is still severe and complicated,” the statement said. Health officials will conduct daily mass PCR tests and request that residents in high-risk areas stay within their homes. 

You can find more about the chaos unfolding at the iPhone factory below… 

* * * 

On Wednesday, unrest broke out at Foxconn’s massive iPhone factory in Zhengzhou, central China, reported Bloomberg. Videos on social media showed hundreds of workers, if not more, clashing with security personnel after a month of strict Covid restrictions. 

Manufacturer Foxconn confirmed the outbreak of “violence” and said it would work with local authorities to quell further violence. It released a statement that said workers were furious about pay and living conditions. 

“Regarding any violence, the company will continue to communicate with employees and the government to prevent similar incidents from happening again,” the world’s largest producer of iPhones wrote in a statement. 

As Covid infections increased across Zhengzhou and iPhone factory, Foxconn adopted a “closed loop” system for employees in October. Workers were forced to live on campus and were prohibited from physical contact with the outside world – including family members.

Then by late October, strict Covid restrictions for workers sparked minor unrest at the facilities of about 200,000 workers — all were banned from eating in public and forced to eat meals back at their dorms. 

By early November, while Beijing ramped up its zero Covid policy by locking down the surrounding metro area — workers began to flee the factory

Now in videos posted on Weibo and Twitter that AFP and Reuters have verified, all hell appears to have broken out as hundreds of workers clash with security guards and people in hazmat suits. 

According to Reuters, delayed bonus payments triggered Wednesday’s protest. Workers were heard chanting, “Give us our pay!”

Escalating unrest at the factory added new uncertainties for iPhone production. Weeks ago, Apple said it had reduced iPhone 14 production because of the Covid restrictions at the plant. The latest round of unrest could dramatically impact output. 

A source told Reuters that Foxconn would be unable to achieve production targets. They said much of the unrest is centered around recruits hired to replace a gap in the workforce. 

“Originally, we were trying to see if the new recruits could go online by the end of November. But with the unrest, it’s certain that we can’t resume normal production by the month-end.”

Wednesday’s protest underscores how President Xi Jinping’s zero Covid policy that requires factories like the iPhone one in Zhengzhou to operate as “closed loops” can backfire. 

“It’s really a mess,” Barry Naughton, a professor at the University of California San Diego who specializes in Chinese economics, told Bloomberg. “They’ve created a situation where the local decision-makers are under intolerable pressure,” he said. 

Besides backfiring zero Covid policies, mounting trade conflicts and geopolitical tensions have forced Apple to review its global supply chain, primarily centered in China. Some iPhone 14 production has been shifted to India as Apple begins to diversify away from China.end

Israeli Intelligence Warns Iran Is Mulling Terror Attack On World Cup

WEDNESDAY, NOV 23, 2022 – 06:30 PM

The head of Israeli Military Intelligence has warned this week that Iran is mulling an attack on World Cup venues in Qatar amid ongoing anti-regime protests. Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva described that he expects Tehran officials to grow more desperate amid the now months-long “anti-hijab” protests, thus the potential for lashing out by a major terror attack grows increasingly likely.

“There is a real concern within the regime that it endangers the regime. At this stage, I do not see a risk to the regime…. but as the pressure on Iran increases, including internal pressure, the Iranian response is much more aggressive, so we should expect much more aggressive responses in the region and in the world,” Haliva said.

“I am telling you that the Iranians are now considering attacking the World Cup in Qatar as well,” he said. “The only thing holding them back is how the Qataris will react.”

He issued the words Monday before a defense conference in Tel Aviv, calling the ongoing protests which have increasingly taken over university campuses and major city streets in the Islamic Republic “extremely exceptional” and now fast becoming a “civilian rebellion”.

The death toll, the attacks on national symbols — this is very troubling for the regime, especially combined with sanctions, the existing international pressure, and the difficult economic situation,” the military intel chief described.

Outgoing Defense Minister Benny Gantz also backed the prediction related to the World Cup, alleging the Iranians are poised to create instability outside their country. 

Iranian leaders have meanwhile charged that the protests and unrest are a foreign plot, with the spiraling violence which has left scores of police and security services casualties being fueled by Israeli and US intelligence. Over 320 people have died since the demonstrations began. Authorities have denounced the “rioters”. 

As for the claims that Iran could be planning an attack on the World Cup, it remains entirely unclear if this is based on any firm intelligence. Instead, it seems more the speculative accusations which are typical from Israeli officials anytime there’s a major media-covered international event in the Middle East region.

Poland votes that WWII massacre by Ukraine was ‘genocide’ – EURACTIV.com

Robert Hryniak5:36 PM (4 hours ago)
to

While it is painful to watch this insane support of a criminal regime masquerading as a government in the Ukraine while trying to blame Russia for all of its’ sins, one might want to read articles like this and reflect carefully about what really is going on. Because support of a regime that thinks nothing about the death of its’ citizens certainty is not caring about who else dies in order to make a buck and further their agenda.

Talk of a so called “willing coalition” made up of 90,000 troops from Poland and Romania and the US will accomplish nothing but to widen a conflict that the world can ill afford. And will result in millions dying for these lunatics. No good can come from this. Even the desire of private Western contractors lining up to face Russia’ Wagners ( private) face to face to see who the the best is a farce. And this is a action to charge for services building reputation tomorrow?

And yes, behind the curtain, what you are not told is that on December 9th we will see the 1st comprehensive disclosure of what the new BRICS currency may look like. And yes, it will be in part commodity based as well as metals oriented. What cannot be stopped even by a widening conflict is the reality that the world is being split into 2 distinct trade blocks where the USD will not reign supreme nor will it be able to dictate settlement for labor given.
This as it takes shape and form within the BRICS and many nations now wanting to join to escape the hegemony rule of the USD will change the landscape of everything we have experienced in several generations. Realize that countries from Saudi Arabia to Thailand want to join. Over fifteen countries in total so far have publicly stated this and with another 20 in the wings you have not heard about. The combined West is not invited nor able to shift; it stands as a separate block. Values for all things will be readjusted without permission or desire but by realities of trade patterns and a distinct disregard for the thievery behind the USD ( the private money of a corporation) not representative of a nation or its’ citizens. One only has to look at the fiasco of FTX to understand that it was not so clever con to cover up mass thievery of dollars washed through the Ukraine to be directed to politicians and many others with cast of characters enabling the actions seen and known and still those not revealed. To know that 90% of arms shipments to the Ukraine are unaccounted for with untold money enriching policymakers and crooks, what is normal or value creating about this? The abandonment of many hundred’s of millions of USD paid weapons in Afghanistan was a colossal waste, ill afforded by a nation unable to finance itself except by debt. Try that as a household or business and see how long you last. And what of many billions of USD value stolen or highjacked left unaccounted while justice sleeps? Do you wonder why people eagerly sought out alternatives like Bitcoin etc. to establish alternative asset values while still dollar denominated by settleable in other currencies? Is not the value increase in everything from art to comics to metals not sign of dispersal of value in order to preserve wealth?

No society or Empire can last with this kind of farce being sold as a norm without collapse. To think that someone struggling in a poor emerging nation is being told to accept a USD as tribute for their labor is stretch. A stretch that is ignored until  there is alternative choice as is now coming into focus. War with all of its’ horror will not prevent what comes. As it was incompetent actions of removing Russia from Swift that caused a permanent split and departure from the USD. Want someone to blame then look no further than the ship of fools being flaunted as a government in charge that knows what it is doing. And they are not alone as the ship of fools has many eager passengers. Meanwhile nations like Russia and China have clearly said buzz off, we are done with your balderdash. And it is not  like the removal of Russia off Swift was not a declaration of rule without substance and clear warning to China, who has its’ own internal real estate problems. The “ big stick” approach has not worked and in fact is the catalyst that caused the shift that cannot be stopped.

What comes forth will be a forced realignment of value dictated by the value of currency as a means of settlement for goods desired or sought and by the willingness of producers to part with such goods. And this will not be a increase in purchasing power but instead will be a reduction and rebalancing. This in of itself will cause massive changes with opportunities and pitfalls. We cannot stop this; we can only embrace it, steeling  ourselves to steer through the seas.

Chaos Breaks Out As Reporters Ask Fauci About COVID Origins

TUESDAY, NOV 22, 2022 – 11:40 PM

Chaos broke out in the White House press room on Tuesday, after multiple reporters asked Anthony Fauci questions about the origins of Covid-19 and related investigations.Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, in Washington on Nov. 22, 2022. (Jim Watson/AFP via Getty Images)

As reporters began asking questions, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre attempted to shut down the discussion.

We have a process here, I’m not calling on people who yell, and you’re being disrespectful to your colleagues and you’re being disrespectful to our guests,” she said, scolding the journalists. “I will not call on you if you yell, and also you’re taking time off the clock because Dr. Fauci has to leave in a couple of minutes.”

“You need to call people across the room! She has a valid question, she’s asked about the origin of COVID,” a reporter from Africa Today shot back.

Fauci only ended up answering three questions – including one about House Republicans taking the majority in Congress and potentially investigating him.

Multiple GOP lawmakers have signaled they would call him to testify over the origins of the COVID-19 virus and his agency having provided funding to a third party to carry out controversial research in Wuhan, China.

The longtime federal official said that he has testified “hundreds of times” and would comply with Republicans if he is asked. Regarding questions about the origin of COVID-19, Fauci did not answer Tuesday. -Epoch Times

“I’ll let other people judge the value or not of my accomplishments, but I would like people to remember about what I’ve done, is that every day for all of those years I’ve given it everything that I have and I’ve never left anything on the field,” Fauci said.

He then called on people to get updated COVID-19 booster shots.

“Whether you’re a far-right Republican or a far-left Democrat, it doesn’t make any difference to me,” he said. “I look upon it the same way as I did in the emergency room in middle New York City when I was taking care of everybody who was coming in off the street.”

More via The Epoch Times

Fauci has been targeted by GOP officials and conservatives for the often dire predictions he’s made about the trajectory of COVID-19 and for publicly backing COVID-19 shutdown orders, mask mandates, and vaccine mandates. Some, like Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, said that Fauci and other federal officials have attempted to create panic over the virus.

DeSantis in August told podcaster Dan Bongino that Fauci tried to “sow fear in the population and scared a lot of parents” when he called for schools to be shut down in favor of in-person learning. “We can never go down that road,” DeSantis said.

Starting in early 2020, Fauci has become essentially the public face of the federal government’s pandemic response, making hundreds of media appearances and giving numerous interviews.

In the statement announcing the move in July, Fauci stated he is “not retiring” and will work on “science and public health and to inspire and mentor the next generation of scientific leaders as they help prepare the world to face future infectious disease threats.”

Investigations

NIAID provided funds to EcoHealth Alliance, which conducted bat coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China before the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan. Chinese Communist Party officials have officially stated that the virus emerged at a wet market, but some U.S. intelligence officials believe it emerged at the Wuhan lab.Workers are seen next to a cage with mice (R) inside the P4 laboratory in Wuhan, capital of China’s Hubei Province, on Feb. 23, 2017. (Johannes Eisele/AFP via Getty Images)

Republican lawmakers who have been investigating the lab-leak origin theory want to look further into whether NIAID or Fauci played a role in doling out funds to EcoHealth.

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, also a Republican, and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry are expected to testify against Fauci as part of a lawsuit. In a lawsuit in May, the two officials alleged that Fauci’s agency and other federal officials colluded with social media firms to censor speech.

“During COVID, we know that high-ranking Facebook officials were text messaging the surgeon general of the United States saying, ‘Hey, we took that down, what more can we do?’ We also know that there was a special portal created for Big Tech with the government to take down people and have them de-platformed,” Schmitt told Fox News earlier this week about the suit.

Other than Fauci, they’ve attempted to depose former White House press secretary Jen Psaki, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director Jen Easterly, and FBI officials. The Biden administration has appealed their lawsuit, although a judge on Nov. 2 rejected the government’s request.

America’s Biggest Criminal Drug Dealers Go Free and Continue to Push Their Drugs that Destroy Lives

November 21, 2022 7:11 pm

Two of America’s largest criminal drug dealers recently reached a $10 billion settlement for their role in America’s opioid crisis that has cost tens of thousands of deaths and countless lives destroyed for the past several years. As part of this settlement, nobody goes to prison, and these drug dealers get to keep pushing their harmful drugs. They even get to spread out their criminal payments over several years so they don’t suffer any business loss. The CDC had originally issued stricter guidelines for prescribing opioids in an effort to reduce illegal use and addictions, but a couple of weeks ago they backtracked on those guidelines making it easier for doctors to continue prescribing opioids. Deaths resulting from prescription pharmaceutical drugs far exceed deaths due to illegal street drugs, and it is not even close. The “war on drugs” started during the 1970s has created several generations now of mind-controlled drug users who incorrectly believe that illegal drugs are dangerous, while their prescription drugs are safe. The most commonly used “illegal drug” used by millions of Americans today is cannabis, or marijuana. While cannabis use has increased in the U.S. for both recreational and medical reasons, the pharma-funded corporate media continues to demonize it, and for good reason. Marijuana is best known for its recreational use, but if you can bypass the corporate censorship that obviously sees marijuana as a threat to patented pharmaceutical drugs, you will learn that the therapeutic benefits to marijuana are absolutely amazing. And some doctors are actually using medical marijuana to get people off of deadly opioids. According to data retrieved from the FDA due to a Freedom of Information Act request, nobody has ever died as a result of using marijuana, making it one of the safest natural drugs available, in spite of what you may be hearing and reading from the pharma-controlled corporate media.

Bolsonaro Sues To Invalidate 250,000 Votes Over “Malfunctioning Ballot Boxes”

TUESDAY, NOV 22, 2022 – 09:30 PM

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has filed a lawsuit asking a court to invalidate 250,000 votes from “malfunctioning ballot boxes,” according to Gazeta Do Povo

According to the petition, an audit carried out at the request of the Liberal Party found that the old ballot boxes “cannot be considered” due to having identical identification numbers.

According to the lawsuit, the 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2015 models of the voting machines presented “insurmountable operating problems, with emphasis on the very serious failure in the individualization of each URNA LOG file and its repercussions in later stages, such as the Digital Record of the Vote (RDV) and the issuance of the Ballot Box (BU), and, consequently, in the absence of certainty as to the authenticity of the voting result,” (translated).

According to Bloombergthe court has given Bolsonaro 24 hours to decide whether he will only include the 1st round of votes in his complaint.

Three weeks ago Bolsonaro refused to concede the election to challenger Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, saying at a news conference: “As president and as a citizen I will continue to follow all the commandments of our constitution.”

Shortly after the election, truck drivers loyal to Bolsonaro blocked roads in over a dozen Brazilian states causing disruptions – including the road to São Paulo’s international airport, leading to the cancellation of many flights.

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Brazilians came out to protest against Bolsonaro’s defeat in the October election, and have asked for the armed forces to intervene.

“I’m fighting for my country, for my daughter and three grandchildren,” 63-year-old Domingues Carvalho told AP after protesting for 15 days straight. “I’m fighting for my country, for my daughter and three grandchildren,” he added.

“I’ll stay here as long as necessary. We are peaceful but we will never, ever leave our country in the hands of communists.”

Bolsonaro called the protests in his favor a “popular movement” resulting from “indignation and a sense of injustice” over the election.

Meanwhile, in response to Bolsonaro’s lawsuit:

ESZs opened higher on Sunday night due to the usual buying for the expected Monday rally.  Unfortunately, the news that China is suffering another wave of Covid further dispelled the narrative that China is about to re-open.  ESZs then sank until a bottom (3956.00) formed at 11:02 ET.  After a modest rally, ESZs and stocks went inert until they broke lower at 2:40 ET.
 
A bottom of 3948.25 appeared at 4:26 ET.  ESZs and stocks then went inert until the rally for the NYSE open appeared.  ESZs peaked (3969.75) at 9:52 ET.  ESZs and stocks then sank until they hit daily lows at 11:54 ET.   ESZs then rallied from 3837.50 to 3968.25 at 13:40 ET.  After a rally attempt when the final hour appeared, ESZs sank until 15:30 ET.  After a modest uptick, ESZs rolled over into the close.
 
USZs rallied sharply when ESZs declined during early Asian trading.  However, after China closed, USZs sank until they hit a bottom of 125 7/32 at 4:26 ET.  They then went inert until they soared from 8 ET until peaking at (126 13/32) at 9:31 ET.  After a sharp decline, USZs rallied into the 2-year ($42B) and 5-year note ($43B) auctions.  Results: 2-yr 4.513%, WI 4.505% (98.5% at high); 5-yr 3.974%, WI 3.967%
 
USZs sank on the auction results.  They then went inert in the afternoon, which is what bonds have been doing in the afternoon for a few months.

Today – China usurped the usual Monday rally.  So, bulls will try to affect a Turnaround Tuesday to the upside.  The listless action on Monday suggests that many traders and investors have already started their Thanksgiving vacations.  This means today’s activity could be as boring as Monday’s trading.
 
ESZs are +8.00 at 20:30 ET on buying for the expected Turnaround Tuesday to the upside.

The piece, which was originally co-bylined with John Leicester (who is still working at the AP), attributed the information to a single “senior U.S. intelligence official,” despite the AP’s rule that it “routinely seeks and requires more than one source when sourcing is anonymous.”…
