Eso había entendido, pero me costaba creerlo, es una amezada en toda regla dirigia a todo EEUU y al mundo financiero en general. Increible. Esto puede acabar peor que morir cienes de veces! "Cuando descubramos lo que está pasando [en la Fed], creo que los ciudadanos americanos van a demandar el siguiente paso, van a demandar dinero honesto, ha pasado muchas veces en la historia" dijo Ron Paul. Creo que Ron Paul en realidad quiere la abolición del monopolio de la moneda. Lo que pasa es que para eso tendrían que cambiar la constitución y sería un lío. Por lo que de momento pide que se respete la constitución, que ya sería un éxito que cambiaría la historia. De las dos maneras el oro volvería a ser usado como moneda más a menudo. ¿ veremos esto aquí ? No. Nadie será nuestro Ron Paul. Ron Paul ha aparecido porque allí tienen listas abiertas y se puede presentar quien quiera. En cambio aquí solo entran en las listas los lameculos del partido. Piensa que Ron Paul era un médico a quien no conocía nadie, que sirvió en Vietname y luego se dedicó a partos en Texas. Cuando Breton Woods se vino abajo se empezó a interesar por la situación y investigando se puso a estudiar política monetaria y eso le llevó a meterse en política. Él pensaba que no iba a salir elegido, pero quería probarlo. Y salió elegido. Pero eso fue posible por las listas abiertas, porque el partido no dice nada sobre quien se presenta en cada región. Te imaginas aquí un médico de 40 años presentandose por primera vez en un partido donde no le conocen y diciendo que quiere ser diputado? Se le rien a la cara. En cambio allí solo tiene que montar la campaña porque las listas son abiertas. Aquí el partido bloquearía a alguien así. |

| "No. Nadie será nuestro Ron Paul. Ron Paul ha aparecido porque allí tienen listas abiertas ". Esto es falso, alli no hay listas abiertas, lo que hay es sistema mayoritario, es decir se elige un congresista por distrito a cuya eleccion se puede presentar quien quiera con partido o sin el. Si hubiera listas abiertas seria practicamente igual que aqui, la lista la haria el partido y en la lista iria quien quisiera el partido, la unica diferencia con las listas cerradas es que podrias elegir de la lista a quien tu quisieras, pero eso seria igual ya que como habria sido previamente puesto en la lista por el partiso seguiria siendo leal al partido y no al votante. Es importante aclarar esto por que mucha gente pide listas abiertas sin darse cuenta de que no solo no es cambio a mejor sino que es a peor ya que el engaño es mayor. EL dia que se reforme la constitución para que se vote a listas abiertas la gente creerra elegir libremente pero seguiran eligiendo lo que a los partidos les interesa. |

| Perdona por el offtopic,Hugolp ¿has leido esto?: July 9 (Bloomberg) -- Never let it be said that the Justice Department can’t move quickly when it gets a hot tip about an alleged crime at a Wall Street bank. It does help, though, if the party doing the complaining is the bank itself, and not merely an aggrieved customer. Another plus is if the bank tells the feds the security of the U.S. financial markets is at stake. This brings us to the strange tale of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Sergey Aleynikov. Aleynikov, 39, is the former Goldman computer programmer who was arrested on theft charges July 3 as he stepped off a flight at Liberty International Airport in Newark, New Jersey. That was two days after Goldman told the government he had stolen its secret, rapid-fire, stock- and commodities-trading software in early June during his last week as a Goldman employee. Prosecutors say Aleynikov uploaded the program code to an unidentified Web site server in Germany. It wasn’t just Goldman that faced imminent harm if Aleynikov were to be released, Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Facciponti told a federal magistrate judge at his July 4 bail hearing in New York. The 34-year-old prosecutor also dropped this bombshell: “The bank has raised the possibility that there is a danger that somebody who knew how to use this program could use it to manipulate markets in unfair ways.” How could somebody do this? The precise answer isn’t obvious -- we’re talking about a black-box trading system here. And Facciponti didn’t elaborate. You don’t need a Goldman Sachs doomsday machine to manipulate markets, of course. A false rumor expertly planted using an ordinary telephone often will do just fine. In any event, the judge rejected Facciponti’s argument that Aleynikov posed a danger to the community, and ruled he could go free on $750,000 bail. He was released July 6. Market Manipulation All this leaves us to wonder: Did Goldman really tell the government its high-speed, high-volume, algorithmic-trading program can be used to manipulate markets in unfair ways, as Facciponti said? And shouldn’t Goldman’s bosses be worried this revelation may cause lots of people to start hypothesizing aloud about whether Goldman itself might misuse this program? Here’s some of what we do know. Aleynikov, a citizen of the U.S. and Russia, left his $400,000-a-year salary at Goldman for a chance to triple his pay at a start-up firm in Chicago co- founded by Misha Malyshev, a former Citadel Investment Group LLC trader. Malyshev, who oversaw high-frequency trading at Citadel, said his firm, Teza Technologies LLC, first learned about the alleged theft July 5 and suspended Aleynikov without pay. ‘Preposterous’ Charges Aleynikov’s attorney, Sabrina Shroff, told the judge at the bail hearing that Aleynikov never intended to use the downloaded material “in any proprietary way” and that the government’s charges were “preposterous.” Goldman isn’t commenting publicly about any of this, though it seems the bank’s bosses want us to believe there’s no need to worry. On July 6, Dow Jones Newswires quoted a “person familiar with the matter” saying this: “The theft has had no impact on our clients and no impact on our business.” Note that this person was so familiar with Goldman that he or she spoke of Goldman’s clients as “our clients” and Goldman’s business as “our business.” By comparison, last Saturday, while most Americans were enjoying the Fourth of July holiday, Facciponti was in court warning of looming threats to Goldman and the financial markets. “The copy in Germany is still out there,” the prosecutor said, according to an audio recording of the hearing. “And we at this time do not know who else has access to it and what’s going to happen to that software.” Secret Software “We believe that if the defendant is at liberty, there is a substantial danger that he will obtain access to that software and send it on to whoever may need it,” Facciponti said. “And keep in mind, this is worth millions of dollars.” By “millions,” it’s unclear if that would be enough to match Goldman Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein’s $70.3 million compensation package for 2007. Or perhaps millions means thousands of millions, otherwise known as billions. Facciponti said the bank told the government that “they do not believe that any steps they can take would mitigate the danger of this program being released.” He added: “Once it is out there, anybody will be able to use this, and their market share will be adversely affected.” All Aleynikov would need to get the code from the German server is maybe 10 minutes with a cell phone and an Internet connection, Facciponti said. Judge’s Ruling The hole in Facciponti’s argument was that the government offered no evidence that Aleynikov had tried to disseminate the software during the month prior to his arrest, after he downloaded it and had left his job at Goldman. That’s the main reason the judge, Kevin N. Fox, cited in ruling Aleynikov could be released on bail. “We don’t deal with speculation when we come to court,” Fox said. “We deal with facts.” Meantime, it would be nice to see someone at Goldman go on the record to explain what’s stopping the world’s most powerful investment bank from using its trading program in unfair ways, too. Oh yes, and could the bank be a bit more careful about safeguarding its trading programs from now on? Hopefully the government is asking the same questions already.

Perdona por el offtopic,Hugolp Sí, estoy siguiendo todo este escandalo con Goldman Sachs. Basicamente Goldman Sachs (Goverment Sachs) tenía un software para manipular el mercado creo que con información privilegiada y se ha descubierto porque el FBI ha investigado a un tio que lo robó y lo usaba él mismo (el FBI nunca investigaría a Goldman Sachs). No he traido las noticias porque es bastante técnico y pensé que no interesaría. Pero si quieres ponerlo en algún lado hay un hilo en el principal llamado quien es Goldman Sachs (o parecido) donde iría bien. |

| La Fed ha contratado a la que fue relaciones públicas de Enron para llevarle sus relaciones públicas y parece que empiezan los primeros movimientos para mejorar su imagen y evitar ser auditada. No quiero ni pensar lo que harían si se hablara de limitarles su poder o incluso de cerrarlos. Bernanke May Explain Fed Exit Strategy in Testimony Next Week - Bloomberg.com Bernanke explicará su estrategia de salida [de la masiva inflación] la semana que viene July 13 (Bloomberg) -- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke will likely show how the central bank will exit the biggest monetary expansion in history when he reports to Congress next week, economists said. The Fed pumped $1 trillion into the banking system over the past year through bond purchases and emergency loans, doubling assets on its balance sheet. Reassuring investors that inflation won’t exceed forecasts once the recession ends will give the Fed more credibility, said Dean Maki, chief U.S. economist at Barclays Capital Inc. While policy makers have spoken about specific tools they may use, they haven’t laid out a strategy. “Now is the time to articulate the exit strategy,” said Vincent Reinhart, former monetary-affairs director at the Fed and now resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington. “The Federal Reserve doesn’t speak with one voice and the testimony is an opportunity to present the consensus view.” The Federal Open Market Committee will release updated economic forecasts on July 15. At their April meeting, officials anticipated inflation of between 1 percent and 1.6 percent in 2010, up from 0.6 percent to 0.9 percent this year. Their long- run forecast is for price increases of 1.7 percent to 2 percent. Investor expectations for inflation have increased this year, as measured by the gap between yields on 10-year U.S. government notes and 10-year Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities. The spread widened to 1.52 percentage point at the end of last week from 0.09 percentage point in January. Unemployment Projection Unemployment is also surging: The jobless rate will exceed 10 percent early next year and average 9.8 percent for 2010, according to a Bloomberg News survey published last week. The rate was 7.6 percent in January. Fed officials will begin to lift the benchmark interest rate in the third quarter of next year and take it to 1 percent in the final three months, the Bloomberg survey showed. The previous month’s survey estimated the Fed would hold the rate near zero until the fourth quarter of next year. “The Fed does not want to trigger market concern about the beginning of policy tightening at this time, an objective I share,” said William Poole, former president of the St. Louis Fed. “That means that the Fed needs to be more explicit about how it will know, or what it will look for, to determine that the “appropriate” time has arrived. This explanation need not, and probably cannot, be very precise; however, there certainly can be some general guidance.” Semiannual Testimony Bernanke is scheduled to address the House Financial Services Committee on July 21. The chairman is required by law to testify twice a year on progress toward the Fed’s mandate to achieve stable prices and maximum employment. “Chairman Bernanke’s semi-annual testimony would be a logical place to lay out these issues in a more detailed discussion,” said Maki at Barclays, who is based in New York. “The more credibility the Fed can cultivate with investors on the exit strategy, the freer it is to pursue stimulative policies in the near-term without leading to sharply higher inflation expectations.” Bernanke will describe an economy that’s still reeling from the credit crisis that began in 2007 and intensified after Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. filed for bankruptcy in September. The loss of 6.5 million jobs since the recession began has led the central bank keep pumping money after cutting the benchmark rate to zero. Credit Expansion The Fed has expanded credit through increased loans to banks to provide liquidity and rescues of financial companies such as American International Group Inc. It’s also begun market backstops such as the Commercial Paper Funding Facility, which holds $109.2 billion in short-term IOUs issued by corporations, and the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, which has lent $24.9 billion to investors to buy securities tied to auto and other consumer and business loans. The Fed has also pledged to buy $1.75 trillion in mortgage- backed securities, Treasury notes, and federal housing agency bonds. As of July 9, the Fed had bought $200.7 billion of Treasuries. It may take years for the Fed to sell the securities back to investors, said Lou Crandall, chief U.S. economist at Wrightson ICAP LLC in Jersey City, New Jersey. In the medium term, the Fed would need to sterilize the purchases, or find a way to prevent the increased money supply from fueling inflation, he said. ‘Years’ Before Selling “It will be years before they can start selling, if ever,” Crandall said. “Can they raise interest rates with an expanded balance sheet? The answer is yes. Can they do it in a tidy way? The answer is, we don’t know.” U.S. central bankers have mentioned reverse repurchase agreements, interest on reserves, and possibly sales of short- term debt as ways to sterilize reserves in the banking system. There are problems with each tool. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fed would sell bonds to Wall Street dealers with an agreement to buy them back at a later date. Reverse repurchase agreements could require firms that deal directly with the Fed to hold billions of dollars in mortgage securities. “The dealer community and the investor community does not have the appetite to hold a trillion dollars more in mortgages than they are holding now,” said Stephen Stanley, chief economist at RBS Securities Inc. in Stamford, Connecticut, one of 17 companies that deals directly with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Additional Tool Fed officials have also proposed selling their own bills to mop up cash. Congress hasn’t shown interest in the idea, which would require legislation. While the Treasury has a program of short-term bill sales to help sterilize excess reserves, it complicates the department’s regular borrowing to finance government spending. “I am not worried at all that the Federal Reserve’s balance-sheet expansion will generate an inflation problem,” New York Fed President William Dudley said in a speech in Nashville on April 18. “The Federal Reserve has the ability to manage down the size of its balance sheet over time once financial conditions and the economy improve.” That’s what RBS Securities’ Stanley calls the “trust us” approach. The lack of clarity may not ease inflation concerns, especially if the Fed has to increase its purchases of Treasury and mortgage-debt to provide further stimulus to the economy. Job losses will continue even after the economy begins growing in the second half of this year, the monthly Bloomberg monthly showed. Tellabs Inc., the Naperville, Illinois-based maker of networking equipment, said last week it’s scrapping about 150 jobs. Dow Chemical Co., the largest U.S. chemical maker, said July 1 it will permanently close three Louisiana factories and take a second-quarter charge of about $700 million. Midland, Michigan-based Dow’s charge includes the elimination of 2,500 jobs, following the acquisition of Rohm & Haas Co. The Reuters/University of Michigan preliminary index of consumer sentiment fell by more than forecast in July to 64.6 from 70.8 in the previous month. Consumers in the survey said they are less likely to buy cars or appliances, suggesting the recovery may be weaker than anticipated. |
