2:30 am
so they cannot see him and this is what i think the shadow banking system does its cons people into not being able to see the fraud to see the theft because a lot of it is about theft about transferring that the mirror image real economy where every joe baca doenitz and joe schmoe are working they're transferring the wealth to this unaccountable unknowable dark matter out there now the size of the shadow banking system includes the activities of money market funds model line insurers and off balance sheet investment vehicles supervisors consider shadow banking activities to be those that allow banks to carry out business off balance sheets as well as those which allow investors to bypass lenders and the functions they traditionally fulfill on the markets so yeah an area that is i guess you know if you go driving down the highway in cities around the world if you pull off one exit ramp you fly in a lot of prostitution going on
2:31 am
a lot of kind of murder for hire and that's kind of going on the shadow banking system so now i just b.c. barclays lloyds when they want to kill a company they want to do a massive fraudulent deal like going to be talking about the h.p. deal at some point there's an eight billion dollar fraud that was conducted in the shadow banking system with the help of an accounting big big four accounting for once again and when these banks need to be bailed out they they turn the government that to impose austerity measures and so this is that's the chain of of action there now let's go back to this shadow banking system that we're talking about here because earlier i did tell you about this and you said well it's not a shadow it is the banking system so it's wrong to call it the shadow that in fact it is our banking system now and that is the size of the banking system just so to say to cloud people's minds to say oh it's a shadow banking system it's just a reflection of what we are here today. this banking system here that you can see
2:32 am
the little shops out front those that's our banking system but this there is so they're calling it a separate thing all this fraud all of this this derivatives all this highly leveraged craziness it's all out there and that's a shadow but you said to me earlier that you start that this was actually the shadow of the real banking system well right so the the banking system inclusive of the shadow so-called shadow banking system that means that you've got financial fraud comprising not just ten or twenty percent of the overall g.d.p. but the shadow banking system that's fifty percent because that's the total g.d.p. of the world you have to include the sixty seven trillion so the total g.d.p. of the world is not sixty nine trillion or seventy challenge it's including the shadow banking system is on forty trillion so fifty percent of that is financial fraud then of the remaining sixty nine trillion that is counted in the non shadow system fifty percent of that or more is fraud as well so you've got seventy five eighty percent of the global g.d.p.
2:33 am
is controlled by shysters and charlatans and banking terrace in the city of london and wall street and around the world no wonder the economy is collapsing environments collapsing others war perpetually and countries all over the world and austerity is causing massive suicide rate and financial hardship because eighty percent of the global g.d.p. is fraud so now we mentioned repurchase agreements and they go on a little bit further into this. and they say that repurchase agreements are contracts where one investor agrees to sell a security and then buy it back at a future date in a fixed price so as we saw with the lehman brothers collapse what they found was that they had basically overnight when the regulators came to look at their books when the the auditors came to look at their books of course some said during a black hole of debt so they sold that debt overnight for that day that they were being audited put it into this shadow banking system and then it magically disappeared they looked healthy so the fact is. as we don't know you know j.p.
2:34 am
morgan celebrates record earnings you know is that because all their record debts are off in this shadow banking system well the cost of actually having cash on the books is prohibitive for a financial terrorist like j.p. morgan so they outsource their cash operations to the repo market essentially is why they report market existed so that banks and corporations can outsource their whole cash management function to into this thing called the repo market which allows them to gain negative rates of interest on their cash or they're making money the more money they borrow the more money they make on the borrowing that they do it's a complete opposite of what everyone else in the world has the experience of borrowing money and being charged an interest if you're a banking terrorist in the city of london you borrow money you get paid to borrow money so of course they're going to be well capitalized because they're being paid to commit financial fraud from oz born cameron obama the whole the whole lot.
2:35 am
well the financial stability board finally on this story is very concerned about the systemic risk that this black hole of debt out there in this black shadow banking system is causing and you know i think they're attempting to say we need to regulate it in some way but i feel like that's like nasa trying to say well there are these dangerous black holes out there so we're going to send some astronauts to the event horizon and try to fix it look the financing of this shadow banking system sixty nine seventy eighty one hundred trillion and i'm so actually closer to a hundred fifty trillion if you include really inclusive of all of the double accounting and triple accounting the financing of this is due to and with the help of zero percent interest rates that people say well it's great interest rates of zero but they never take into consideration that for interest rates to be zero bond prices have to be trading at well let's see in america they're trading at a two hundred forty year high in britain they're trying to three hundred year high
2:36 am
is that a bubble well like a tool of baldwin from one june two thousand back to zero is a like the mississippi company or the stock went from five hundred to eighteen thousand to zero yeah it is it's a multi hundred year incredible bubble that's ready to pop interest rates go to twenty percent and people are going to be absolutely decimated it could be prevented but of course you don't have anything to get in the way of this freight train of fraud and financial all across this call what it is so it's a cover up all this fraud that is out there in the shadow banking system of course we've seen lots of printing printing of quantitative easing printing money printing new debt in order to cover up all of the fraud so back in episode three three six we referred to mitt romney who had bankrupted essentially a company and held the f.d.i.c the federal deposit insurance corporation in america basically held them hostage forced them to give them more money to. ten million
2:37 am
dollars in bad debt because what the f.b.i. see found as if they seize the assets of this company that mitt romney had basically hollowed out and taken away is that all that was left was an h.p. printer so we create which has restated eight point eight billion dollars a charge of eight point eight billion dollars on their purchase of this british company autonomy so when it flashed back to just september fourth when you talked about a printer and its role in the u.s. economy the one i mean that's all j.p. morgan is they have a negative net worth the hundreds of billions of dollars it's all the federal reserve and all the careful about auditing the federal reserve is that when they open the vault and say oh where is our money they're going to find a printer when they open up for knox the same words are gold are going to find a printer over there lloyd blankfein j.p. morgan's last goldman sachs they open up of all this only i was a printer used to be nothing but a printer it's amazing that the company that makes printers hewlett packard's doing so poorly considering the only thing that any of these companies competence was
2:38 am
a is a printer which is amazing the name of the printer company is going out of business because of too much printing the h.p. deal you know with autonomy perfect example even larry ellison or over oracle when the deal was going down said this is a fraud you know it's an eight billion dollars fraud it was signed off by the accounting firm number accounting firm rating agencies investment banks regulators terrorists biggest terrorist in the world accounting that these accounting firms need to be severely punished now as you said to lloyd looked at the books of autonomy and and said to h.p. yeah it's fine to buy it for eleven billion dollars well looking back to another headline max a short seller saw autonomy's problems this is john jim chanos and while alleged fraud at autonomy may have been a surprise to hewlett packard it's auditor's bankers and its executives it wasn't too short seller jim chanos who in july two thousand and eleven max wrote a report saying this was his biggest. european is short wish it was autonomy and he
2:39 am
noticed that autonomy claims about the size of its discovery business are questionable and represent forty percent of total market share in an industry with more capable and better capitalized competitors like microsoft autonomy's claims of twenty percent growth in revenue are inconsistent with competitors reported figures so they wrote a report prior to the lawyers and also k p m g looked at it and price waterhouse coopers also looked at this deal and they all found it was fine of course insider trading hedge funds shadow banking system accounting firms all committing massive pollution and fraud the austerity is right is a response because there's no leadership there's no government let the global insurrection against banker occupation continue let a billion people in the streets with torches hunt down these bankers and do what they have to do together it is. all right stays here and thank so much being on the kaiser report thank you. stay tuned for the second half of the show me talking to jen scholes of the real company.
2:41 am
your new super secret lover a jury of your mccurry was able to build a new age most sophisticated robot which all unfortunately doesn't give a dollar amount anything turns mission to teach music creation why it should care about humans and world dish is why you should care only. to least be told language. programs and documentaries in arabic it's all here on all t.v. reporting from the world talks books seventy yards p.t. interviews intriguing stories tell you you. been trying. to find out more visit are a big don't all teeth don't call. yellow war lords while criminals we have a lot of groups of the causes of the flu suits all our views on the whole more
2:42 am
right enough to just like when you have that knowledge but wasn't forced my age old school when i was a teen yes you can liberate their women and you certainly can't do it through the barrel of a gun only effective social changes can be the afghans themselves ask again men and women we believe to spawn cannot. it's a position that it comes to actual. people in the obama administration talking about how much they care about the women of afghanistan it's true they don't care about the women of afghanistan. three. or. three. three.
2:43 am
videos for your media project. r t v dot com. max kaiser welcome back to the kaiser report so i now turn to jan squirrel's of the real company where she writes the daily nugget research and commentary jan welcome back to the kaiser reporting queue haven't we haue you. now jen your clients are moving their gold from switzerland to singapore you have a unique position over there the real asset company can see the flow of waters now why is. it is it still a safe place to store your gold. backtracks slightly we did a survey asking our clients and our readers where they would like to see that gold
2:44 am
stored if they had the choice and we gave them a series of options of which to live in singapore there's also hong kong u.k. and u.s. and we i think i personally had expected to see switzerland take the majority and instead singapore not by huge amount but there was still very popular particularly of european customers but singapore was right up there. american readers and and clients. i think this maybe doesn't show a dramatic shift yet but it is saying that is what changed in the water with people thinking maybe questioning an injury is this safe haven that we've all perceived to be and instead they kind of looking toward singapore and i don't think i definitely would agree that switzerland is a dangerous place to keep your gold anymore but it's only in the last few years there's been quite a few changes and by swiss banks in the american government which have made people question whether or not there you know the banking act which came into place i
2:45 am
think in one nine hundred thirty four is still a strong as it was and if there is let me them a cut in for a second so in other words the scandals in switzerland. and the banks now open the komodo so to speak and american regulators are looking into the swiss bank accounts so it appears as though this is scared away a lot of folks yeah i think singapore might be a little bit more friendly to to those who are seriously wealthy and don't want the prying eyes of a foreign government but i think basically do your best is that one bit of respect paid to them and feel that it's not really a huge amount of the government's business what they're up to and singapore you have this amazing free port facility where customs and you know there's no. there's a tax this is the g.s.t. which was a seven percent tax in gold and silver has now been removed as of october and as a result the freeport city has been extended by i think fifty thousand square
2:46 am
metres because of this huge tomorrow i think it looks like what this trend of wealthy people are getting to the gold and silver positions it seems from the evidence that we have that they're doing so pretty aggressively but now so too are the big hedge funds like the george soros he has been in and out of gold he just now is back in in a very big way john paulson another has fallen who's big in gold the central bank since two thousand and nine have been net buyers of gold. increasing our positions radically at the same time jan squirrels we have people who are buying bonds so there's a fear trade going on be the people are afraid of the global financial catastrophe and they're buying gold that makes sense but they're also buying bonds at three hundred year highs here in the u.k. or two hundred forty year highs in america something's gotta give they're right that they can't both go up in this fair trade or am i missing something i might if you i think i mean i don't think they come both keep going up but once i think when steve a short time wants to be long term and people are buying gold because it's
2:47 am
a hedge against the kind of currencies which are backing you know all of these countries nothing and then they going into phase because they are going up and then maybe it's dropped slightly and i setting a profit and then there's two different things going on and there's two different types invest. going for these things say gold is going up it's going up say and i may be investing in bonds because it's a quick short term approach but that is not making a lot of sense are you going there are limits quite alright but i understand what you're trying to say there that. there's a lot of trading going in and out of bonds however the trend out of equities into bonds in places like pension funds words longer term money is enormous and yet again the bonds are trading at multi hundred year highs it would by any definition be in a massive bubble government bonds around the world so are these bond investors asking
2:48 am
for trouble. are the gold investors trying to tell the bond investors if the smartest money in the world is buying gold because of inflation essentially that's going to be rearing its ugly head shouldn't the bond buyers look over at the smart people and think we maybe they know then they know something that maybe i shouldn't be buying bonds well i feel like i'm not you know impaired. really right and the other day about china saying that you know they will kind of invest in gold buying gold the government encouraging gold and those over here in the west are getting have you seen this do you see what's going on people are buying gold and i just think that gold still see this. kind of it's old fashioned irrational pessimism to be going for it and you know i think we talked about this before that you know the bond market is still doing well because governments don't have the ability to be print money and so people are feeling confident in their government's job particularly in the west and i think maybe we're not taking they're not taking
2:49 am
enough of a long term view on it but i think it's you know you're right it's facing everything but if the gold is just it's just not in that psyche at the moment is still keeping in the. theme of what's happening the global bond market china is obviously buying a lot of gold a lot of it's going through hard and we see hundreds of tons going through halakhah china again here's a here's a country was huge reserves of paper money three trillion in paper but it was very aggressively buying all. our people a storing gold in china the again is china or something in terms of what they see in the future so what is lost well i think the china thing really does fascinate me because i think you know during the u.s. elections a lot of people well there's a lot of people obama romney rebate shasta but it's currency manipulation which we're seeing by the u.s. because they're the largest holder of u.s. debt but if you look in june two thousand and eleven which is when china were given at computer access to buy u.s. treasuries directly at the same time they actually pretty much slow down on their
2:50 am
buying and now there's an interesting convergence between japanese and chinese holding of u.s. treasuries and pretty soon it looks like japan will one day will see the largest holder of u.s. debt so china are actually slowing down if not backing off from the holder of u.s. debt but at the same time we see that they are i mean last year they were accounts for twenty one percent of global gold demand said upping their you know. gold gold people are personally buying in investing in gold and we see measures coming out from the government which of facilitating the ownership of gold and banks. import. import permits. pick it up from. and the government is now allowing working to allow banks to import more gold they're looking at. them to do this what was the government doing that well i think
2:51 am
i have a personal theory which sounds quite naive quite simplistic but it's an interesting way of looking at it in that china have approached grace fairly kind of keynesian way away and they you know they created a huge amount of money in order to promote this grace and at the same time we've seen a huge amount of wealth coming to individuals we've seen huge amount of development a lot of it was through cheap exports which is by keeping the currency buying these u.s. treasuries and now they're saying this wealth and it's ok rather than reinvest it into the stuff that made let's reinvest it into gold which will guarantee out wealth and will secure our wealth for the future i think that's why they're encouraging and it's almost like they kind of their feet they were a few steps behind the western world and they watch what's going on and they know you know china has one of the oldest memories of the damages of paper money and i think you know they're on to it and they know what's going on and so they're encouraging people to invest in gold and they all say you know the government. keeping gold this discussion is about whether or not they now have to back the
2:52 am
currency with gold which is one debate and then also course everyone's talking about how then they want to remove the dollar from being u.s. sorry the world reserve currency let alone job and so those are extraordinary things are saying that number one they're talking about a gold backed currency in china which would be the first country to do so quite a number of years. and this would. obviously set off a bit of a global firestorm would it not because suddenly you'd have one currency that was actually backed by hard metal and and as you point out it would totally take the pressure and interest away from the u.s. dollar so you have a total shift let me ask you this question put on your prognosticators hat for a second apologize if sabotaging you with this with this this question but china currently according to surveys about
2:53 am
a thousand and fifty tons of gold they've been accumulating massive positions surreptitiously and overtly they're the biggest gold miner in the world at some point are going to announce their revised position in the gold holdings in reserves some are saying are going to come out and say we jump to two thousand tonnes some people say three thousand tonnes can you give us. this is a guess what are your thoughts there on how many times they've been keeping i think what i think they're going to announce what impact. in terms how is very evil a thing about you know i think we need to for numbers every day i read two thousand there are six thousand tonnes have been accumulated what i know if that was just a huge amount six nose or so yes it may be the secondary schools that's a lot of breaking news as well it's not quite because i really read it and i can't remember he said it. can you know it's all pure speculation what you just said and i think the impact that would have is well obviously would be dramatic but they
2:54 am
found. cats because it would be interesting to see what happens and it will make the rest of the world wake up and think crap you know what's going on we've all been a bit of it being back here we should be paying attention to it that's a term that i understand you wake up and say crap certainly dollar holders got a hotel would certainly wake up with that on their lips yeah that they realise that their dollars are now approaching worthlessness on the event horizon known as the china takeover. the global economy now we only have about thirty seconds left i want to get your take on the news that just broke october twenty second during the two thousand two thousand and one period germany britain for one thousand nine hundred tons of gold and this in fact is what triggered gordon brown to dump four hundred tons on the open market at a twenty year low price because they apparently had sold or leased out of german germany's gold and they needed to manipulate the price down in order to buy back to vent to liberate the gold to germany this is pretty shocking i think is shocking
2:55 am
news but when i read yes it is shocking but in the same time i thought well i mean just look at how what a terrible decision to go to made to do with the whole thing and say i wasn't really particularly surprised by and i think we were just waiting for a story like that anyway because if you're going to store your gold in another country you can't you can't be surprised when things like that happen nowadays with the currencies going the way that they are turning out for i just want to much for being on the kaiser report. all right that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser and steve herbert i want to thank my guests of the real company would like to send me an e-mail please do so at kaiser report at r t t v dot ru so next time ask others i.
2:56 am
