tv Keiser Report RT February 26, 2013 2:28pm-3:00pm EST
2:28 pm
women you know law enforcement targets offers a product to desensitize police from hesitating to blow away women carrying the unborn and innocent children and you know it's even sicker than that i bet law enforcement agencies are probably buying these things up by the thousands but that's just my opinion. welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser i want to talk about trickle down stupid last week a judge in the u.k. dismissed the jury for being too stupid to understand even the most basic english words or concepts of trial by jury like guilty beyond a reasonable doubt what's that they ass oh or i know the british media mocked a stupid jury of morons and idiots and yet does the british media snicker when
2:29 pm
finance ministers banking regulators department of justice and presidents the united states ask when presented with evidence of libel or rigging market manipulation fraudulent selling of securities and money laundering but is this a crude time they ask bankers ever be guilty they ask stupidly us and attorney general eric holder when presented with not only evidence of a crime but a fricken confession of h.s.b.c.'s guilt for drug money laundering and terrorism financing asks. should i as head of the u.s. justice department charge them with a crime or how about president obama when asked why his justice department had done nothing against the criminals responsible for the smoldering wreckage a financial system right there in front of his own two eyes asks well were the bankers just taking advantage of loopholes that's just like destructive impact
2:30 pm
caused by bankers wasn't necessarily illegal was it they say. indeed max and we see these destructive impacts around the world in the elite circles and every single time they ask they act like a moronic jury that doesn't understand the concept of guilt or innocence and yet they're not dismissed from their role as a juror they don't even qualify to be on the jury on any case in the u.k. and here we have a libel or settling still not clean despite scandal so this is gary gensler chairman of the commodity futures trading commission one of the people one of the regulators overseeing live war rate setting in the bankers that control that he suggested that the library was often completely made up it had to be made up he said because of course there was no interbank lending so they just made up a number and then he said speaking of the scandal mr gensler spoke of pervasive rigging and said authorities could not guarantee the rate is fraud free but refused to criticize the f.s.a. or suggest that setting their rate should be moved to the united states yeah gary
2:31 pm
gensler well as name pops up over and over again doesn't you know he's part of these these are the regulatory side of the fraud of the five fingers of death you know got the rating agencies regulators the bankers the media etc you know he's part of regulating fraud so well comparing it again to this jury here in the u.k. they often they also asked you know can we use information not presented evidence not presented to the court to determine whether this woman is guilty or not here he's been presented with all the evidence he's saying there's still pervasive rigging they're still rigging the rates and he's still saying well can we use signs of innocence not actually presented in this case right just to recap in a jury trial here in the u.k. where the journey was just too stupid to understand the instructions from the judge like they didn't know what reasonable doubt met so they were just a mess they have to retry this case because the jury is too stupid you know it reminds me of the frank quattrone defense frank quattrone credit suisse during the
2:32 pm
dot com scam. well he was engaged in an illegal laddering of i.p.o.'s and he got off because the jury was too stupid to understand his financial crimes well that's a little bit more complicated these are very very very basic simple fundamental concepts of jury law is guilt beyond a reasonable doubt is a phrase a deficit of comprehension deficit of of basic understanding yes it was a polite way of saying you're frickin brain dead get out of my courthouse before we throw you in jail for being too stupid well in this case there were thousands of e-mails between thousands of traders who are actually a few dozen traders saying set the libel rate at a rate that is not true rigged it for me and they're saying that this is somehow complicated that we can't do anything about it because there are signs of innocence outside this circle of the actual writers an innocent act being committed somewhere in the universe and should we apply a standard of guilt to this admission of guilt by a just b. c. yeah i just recently admitted that there are
2:33 pm
a lot of money and financing terrorism but somebody somewhere buried in a setback something in a parallel universe perhaps so can we call it just b.c. kilty let me give you say oh oh wow there's three thousand mexicans headless because nobody loitering today just created a bed of terrorists but should we care because after all somebody committed it is an act somewhere so they're not guilty you know the same thing going back to the bush administration and the obama administration sent in a drone go murder somebody because somebody might not know what's going on if in fact you look at the stupid work done it reported it's not a picture of refraction of a mirror because we're that stupid well let's turn back to the b.b.c. interview with gary gensler chairman of the c f t c responsible for these live more rigorous pervasive rate rigging so where we need to go is we need to go to something that is far better for the public they can't be so easily manipulated so are you suggesting the doing a way of life. i'm suggesting that any reference rate has to be based on
2:34 pm
facts and not be. fiction it has to be based on real transactions and the challenge here is banks are no longer essential the lending to each other so what is live for it's something that in the past banks were supposedly lending to each other but now they don't so again he doesn't understand basic concept the word is fraud it's the libel rate should be based on fact not fraud he says it should be based on fact not fiction fiction is not the same thing as fraud no not well but it is in this case the lives or rate is just a rate they pull out of their butt to help in committing fraud gary gensler knows that he has admitted on several occasions but of course somebody somewhere is looking at a reflection of a some sort of convex mirror gary guessers own dimentia so therefore it's ok that mystical down stupid because again it's no wonder you see this throughout the world
2:35 pm
throughout history is if the elites the people who rule the society acts like criminals crooks corrupt officials and they can't find everything any evidence of any crime in by any banker despite all of the evidence that is obvious to everybody else then of course the population won't understand what guilt is beyond a reasonable doubt right i mean here you have gary gensler is acting like a moron he's acting like a full fledged certifiable diminished mental capacity who under any other circumstances you would see this guy and say he needs to be either a straight jacket on drugs or put in a home for the mentally disadvantaged but he has a job as a regulator the see have to see so here you have jurists who show up at the jury and they'll say well our standard of intelligence should be at least you know comparable to gary gensler is running a big government agency so that when they start to spew insanity out of their mouth and it becomes apparent that they have the education of a of a not even
2:36 pm
a kindergarten. didn't and then the why is the judge just missing this jury if this is the jury of their peers this is the population that gary gensler and lloyd blankfein and jamie diamond and stephen hester and this is and george osborne this is the population a creed of cretins this is a jury system they should put this guy gary gensler in front of this jury of cretins and have them. judgment upon his head and they show some like him well ok so see if to see also fail to identify any sign of any crime and global when john chorus line reached into client funds took it and gave it to j.p. morgan he was unable to find any sort of evidence of a crime there this is an idiocracy this is where people don't know member in the future in this film that the population of america didn't know that you had to water plants the other think about honor i'm a mom you know why is the judge casting aspersions toward these jurists doesn't he
2:37 pm
understand the state of the society that we're in today the judge needs to recuse himself for having a grant of the sixth grade education we need stupid our judges to handle super jurists to go after stupid bankers to make stupid crimes right on now here's another. crime that has happened on the international stage we saw this live happening live and everybody acted like no nicolas sarkozy can't be guilty of anything he has no alterio motive in tunisia or in libya or any other place that france the size to invade tunisia is dictator ben ali smuggled sixty two million pounds in gold via france gold and that's worth up to seventy two million euros or sixty two million pounds were smuggled out of tunisia via france by former dictator ben ali and his wife tribe l.c.
2:38 pm
despite you freezing the family assets so max shortly after the government was toppled mules posing as passengers took suitcases each filled with up to forty kilos of gold through various french airports including me some are say in paris it continued up until last week when was last time they went through they're. going to set the mules ended up in offenders lasagna and i know so well you know these north african dictators that's a lot of couscous as a resource for talking about. they've got to protect their future purchases so they've got gold naturally and sarkozy a cause and criminal behavior but i think that there's nobody is shocked they're right so this revelation came via nice newspaper in the south of france and they interviewed some custom officials at nice airport custom officials at nice airport said we never usually see gold coming through here so when the third tunisian came forward saying he carried ten twenty or forty kilos in ingots we told ourselves
2:39 pm
that we had a little problem when we found out that the same thing was happening in our se or paris we told our superiors but we were never asked to intervene so max relate this to the story about the jurors where no guilt can be found because they don't know what beyond a reasonable doubt means. you know trickle down stupidity as you mentioned. stupidity in cretinism is now endemic throughout the. tire system and you have it from sarkozy has a guy who likes to take bribes going down to the airport officials to of course take bribes for african dictators who also take bribes and meanwhile the only currency worth anything is gold and that is proven quite convincingly by this story and that and her recent sauce with little couscous is what i like to have when i'm going moroccan well of course that brings up the the stupidest judge and regulator of them all which was ben bernanke when he was asked his gold money said i don't think so is gold money well ben bernanke is
2:40 pm
a perfect example of somebody who's out of the bottoming for the sake of neoliberal economics here's a man who can add to post it here's a man who believes that by printing money ad infinitum you're going to strengthen the value of that currency here's a man who believes that the scarcity value of gold makes it invalid as a form of currency here's a man who is quite quite possibly the stupidest man in america stupider than the jurist stupor than the judge he stupider than the airport clarence people he could be the stupidest man american of course that qualifies him to be the federal reserve chairman thank you stacy herbert all right well thanks for being on the kaiser report thinking all right that's going to do it for this africa has a report stay tuned for the second half a whole lot more. science
2:41 pm
2:42 pm
2:43 pm
world renowned mathematician and monetary scientist professor at talf the kept of the new austrian school of economics and for cancer research professor welcome to the kaiser report thank you max it's a pleasure to be here people are extremely excited to have you on the show and others have copied you but it was you who pioneered the importance of observing the gold basis as a sign of global financial distress explain gold basis and what is currently telling us about the global financial system you should think of the gold base is the most sensitive. indicator and where ever. a lot of people talk about the prize that is being manipulated well i tell you the gold mooses cannot be manipulated what is the basis for break it down for us i tell you the base is very simply the difference between the cash price of gold and
2:44 pm
the future price of gold because there's a cash market for gold and there's a futures market and the prices diverged and the difference is very very sensitive and it does the whole story which takes several lectures to explain but what we. are talking about here specifically is the nearest future of the one which will make it within a month or so and that is the basis. there are two things about the gold business to remember one is that. it's anomalous and highly irregular the gold business becomes negative which means the the future prize goes to
2:45 pm
a discount of the bins the cash ok let me jump in because when i was working on wall street i traded options and of course when you're trading on the options market the close of the near term option is trading at a discount to the longer term option because global on any option when you price options typically it's out time has some has some value and you see that premium the time premium and you see that quite clearly so what you're describing is that if you look at gold and you look at the the way that their futures contracts are traded for gold and normal configuration a so-called contango would be that the near term contract is trading at a discount to the longer term. track because dot time has money effectively not cation only the longer term contract trades at a discount to the short term contract this is called backwardation correct no not quite because you emphasise the difference between two futures contract nearby
2:46 pm
and this is the but what i am sizing is the difference in who catch the immediate right here and now and the nearest future. they are not the same they don't vary together and the most important point is we're talking more difference being cash and the nearest future i guess the reason why there is some i guess you could call it confusion is that the price that we see quoted in the paper or on the news is the futures price or the paper price of the future price and prepare prize not really the same correct we don't usually see the pin on the cash prize oh if we saw paper price only that's right so isn't that right there are an indication that this market is not giving us accurate signals that definitely i agree with and that's not by accident this is by design in those
2:47 pm
who are in whose interests that is to put a cap on the gold price for ever so to speak they want to conceal be actual cash prize and you have to begin to the market to find that so let's dig into this market the cash price and in london it's quoted twice a day that's the fixed price that london fix is that a cash prize is supposed to be a cash prize however i would say it's manipulated like like boris manipulated. ok same thing so where does one find a cash price call up believe in bank and say cruel to me the. been there now for. and then they may decline but if they want your business then they will give you a quote and if the difference is small enough then you can toss that if you.
2:48 pm
spread the i wouldn't trust their quotation it's interesting because the cash price as you are describing it is not. as readily available or is easy to find or to see even difficult to juggle to find that one in your states by design now why why would that be i mean i think the answer is that there is an emphasis on the paper markets over something hard like gold and solver that talk about those the name of the game to. exchange as little gold as possible and as a march gold of paper futures as possible because there is that where the money is that's where the profit is those are the bullion that.
2:49 pm
nobody in the gold business wants to see gold floor. and that is historically the reason the why governments have gone of the gold standard because gold was flowing out and they tried to devise ways and means to stop or slow down for but when the you have the wrong paula says you cannot stop it gold is going to floor like water from the high ground to the low and this is exactly what's happening today except that it's not the governments who are calling the tunes but the bullion banks and those who stand behind them ok i want to just touch again on this idea of backwardation and just to be clear you're speaking about the. the cash price vs the futures price and when the futures prices trending at a discount to the cash price the market isn't backwardation is it's correct yes ok
2:50 pm
now is it true this can we also say that. currently we've seen gold in backwardation we've seen the futures price trading at a discount to the cash price i would observe that it and this is true for silver as well you see the paper contracts being dumped on to the market as a way to force that price down as a way to manipulate that price that's not the way r.c.d. ok i see. a tremendous on usual the man for the cash so i would say well you know way you are right too because it's a distrust in the futures market and so those who have large. are as you say dumping the future contracts the gist of the matter is
2:51 pm
the demand for the cash so in the case of let's say germany is repatriating their goal they want the gold the real stuff and that pushes the cash price higher which is not a fair statement that's the pedestrian explanation. i mean i'm i'm i'm i'm just a tourist here i've heard of are faster i am trying to just broker this knowledge through the television but but if it is just a show because the germans are not free agents the german government the germans sent to each the buddhist bond lovers free agent they knew what the americans were in them to do so i think it's just for the public consumption you know my and other putting it is that it's a trial balloon they don't really know. home march back to demand those who can go to the location newly letting cloud
2:52 pm
balloons up to see the wind ok i think we're never going around the same ideas from a slightly different perspective you have written a piece the last contango in washington you say policymakers have been preparing for permanent backwardation in the world's gold futures market ok so we've got we've explained a backwardation mean you're saying we're heading to permanent backwardation talk about that about. preparing for perm backwardation is not the right expression and this was written several years ago today i would do the form of the say they are very much afraid of the possibility of permanent backwardation the realizing that this is the main danger because this is means internal bleeding you don't see it but when sporadic
2:53 pm
backwardation becomes permanent that's internal bleeding which is fatal and they know. is the they just have to prevent that ok another word for permanent backwardation i could be a gold standard. no mo berman back would be. means barter as opposed to arthur but then gold becomes an intricate part of the economy in a way that it's not now we're going back to what you said a moment ago professor you were saying that the reason why you have the futures market and why it's set up the way it is is because of the money that is made by trading gold derivatives and we don't see a lot of trade in cash gold we see gold derivatives you know we see derivatives throughout the banking system you know that's where the money is those who have that if in fact gold emerges and it goes into what you can call permanent backwardation you can call it it's used as barter it's used as something of
2:54 pm
a currency which is not classified as a currency right now this in effect would take money away from the derivatives traders today and they would do anything to stop that correct they moved through the you see they didn't see that the clearly say two three four years ago but not every day they realize that this is the problem the cash goold is disappearing it shows. into hiding and they have to stop that fly by who cuckoo and that's true for the first time ok but not let's talk about this another words we mentioned germany repatriating gold venezuela has been repatriating their gold they've also been devaluing their currency so here we see the two things working at the same time to get the derivatives are being devalued gold is being revalued and so there is as paper becomes
2:55 pm
debased and people start looking for gold there if you're saying there's a situation where they're beginning to wake up to the fact that there's not much gold around. well the same story as the proverb go bird in hand is worth a dozen in the bush you see the bird in the bush is the paper. i think it's a bird in hand is worth two in the bush i think by having a dozen in the bush you talk about inflation. but more than that it means that. you may not have something to eat to morrow i mean if you come down to the nitty gritty event of the interview on a cliffhanger professor we have to we have to say goodbye for this part of the interview by evil you've left it on a very intriguing point we're going to continue this on the next show if you if that's ok with you oh my by all means let's thank you very much ok excellent and
2:56 pm
that's all the time we have for this edition of the kaiser report with me max keiser and stacy herbert like to thank our guest professor for cats for cancer research dot com make sure you watch the second half of our interview went well talk about so over backward asian manipulation and liberation you'd like to contact us you can e-mail us a kaiser reported r t t v dot ru or tweet us a kaiser report so next time ask i was in bio. i would like. to know silence. visible. every day is a struggle. for our children sleep soundly at night.
