Jim Rogers: British Pound could collapse within weeks

Jim Rogers: British Pound could collapse within weeks

Jim Rogers, Chairman of Rogers Holdings, has once again made a bold prediction and that is the British Pound could quite possibly collapse within the coming weeks.

Jim Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Fund and founder of the Rogers Commodities Index, was quoted in a recent press release that the United Kingdom Pound is on the brink of utter collapse, which could happen within the coming weeks and there is nothing governments can do about it.

Rogers, making statements prior to delivering a keynote speech at next month's Global Trading Day seminar in Westminster, believes the collapse of the Pound could foreshadow a global economic disintegration before the end of the year. The last few months of increases in the markets have been a "false bounce" and occurred due to government interference in the market and throwing everything at it except for the kitchen sink.


 

Head of IMF Proposes New Reserve Currency

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory?id=9958995

Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the head of the International Monetary Fund, suggested Friday the organization might one day be called on to provide countries with a global reserve currency that would serve as an alternative to the U.S. dollar.

"That day has not yet come, but I think it is intellectually healthy to explore these kinds of ideas now," he said in a speech on the future mandate of the 186-nation Washington-based lending organization.

Strauss-Kahn said such an asset could be similar to but distinctly different from the IMF's special drawing rights, or SDRs, the accounting unit that countries use to hold funds within the IMF. It is based on a basket of major currencies.

He said having other alternatives to the dollar "would limit the extent to which the international monetary system as a whole depends on the policies and conditions of a single, albeit dominant, country."

Strauss-Kahn, a former finance minister of France, said that during the recent global financial crisis, the dollar "played its role as a safe haven" asset, and the current international monetary system demonstrated resilience.

Lamebook and the dumbing down of the next generation

http://www.henrymakow.com/lamebook_--_revolt_of_the_stup.html
If you want a glimpse into the decadence and immorality of the next generation of Americans, look no further than lamebook.com.

This particular site, which gets 12 million hits a day, allows users to post their most "humorous" conversations from the social networking giant facebook.com.  Needless to say, humor is in the eye of the beholder.  While perusing this website, I didn't find much to laugh about. But I can almost see the smug smile on a social engineer's face.  
The silent weapons used for dumbing down America are now humming along at full tilt.  Education, feminism, and the mass media were designed to integrate America into the fast emerging global state.  Facebook and Lamebook are an interactive extension of that most ruthless of weapons, television.

Goldman Sachs, Greece Didn’t Disclose Swap Contract

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=asBNXSLtlN9E&pos=2

Feb. 17 (Bloomberg) -- Goldman Sachs Group Inc. managed $15 billion of bond sales for Greece after arranging a currency swap that allowed the government to hide the extent of its deficit.

No mention was made of the swap in sales documents for the securities in at least six of the 10 sales the bank arranged for Greece since the transaction, according to a review of the prospectuses by Bloomberg. The New York-based firm helped Greece raise $1 billion of off-balance-sheet funding in 2002 through the swap, which European Union regulators said they knew nothing about until recent days.

FTC New Regulations for Online Marketing, Testimonials, Affiliates, disclosures…

http://www.websitemagazine.com/content/blogs/posts/archive/2009/10/15/new-ftc-regulations-apply-to-marketers-affiliates.aspx

http://www.ftc.gov/multimedia/video/business/endorsement-guides.shtm

http://ftc.gov/os/2009/10/091005revisedendorsementguides.pdf

http://www.ftc.gov/multimedia/video/business/red-flags-rule.shtm

The revised Guides provide directions for applying the Guides in the context of social media such as blogging and twittering. The FTC states that the revised Guides apply to blogging and the use of other forms of social media in advertising (e.g., micro-blogging, buzz, viral and word-of-mouth marketing). The revised Guides provide new direction as to how the requirement for disclosure of "material connections" will apply in the social media context. In fact, the FTC's commentary expressly notes that bloggers may be subject to different (and presumably heightened) disclosure requirements than reviewers in traditional media. Further, the revised Guides make no per se distinction between monetary compensation versus in-kind compensation (e.g., product giveaways) paid to the blogger, nor is there a per se distinction between professional versus amateur bloggers. The FTC's commentary emphasizes that advertisers using such forms of social media should establish procedures to advise endorsers to make the necessary disclosures of their material connections to the advertiser, and monitor their endorser's conduct.

Using testimonials from customers and others can be a very effective way to promote your business. After all, everybody expects you will say great things about yourself in your advertising. But an unsolicited rave review from a satisfied customer or industry leader? Solid gold. Still, there are rules. Let's take these three items one at a time.

Letters from customers: Customers who are delighted at getting superior service often write thank-you letters, but that doesn't mean they are authorizing you to use those letters in your promotional efforts. Unless the letters state specifically that it's OK to use them in your marketing literature, I would write or e-mail them and ask for specific written permission to reproduce all or parts of the letter on your Web site. If they don't respond to your request for permission, I would view that as denying you the right to post the letters online.

In addition, the DMA is now considering changes to its guidelines for advance consent marketing, in light of a Senate inquiry that raised concerns about how best to obtain adequate and informed consent from consumers for post-transaction/negative option programs online.

Hedgies invade Malta waterfront

HERE'S a new one for the hedgie lexicon: Valletta. The capital of Malta is not yet on a par with Mayfair or Geneva but it is fast becoming a second home for many of London's hedge funds.

Confused? Let me explain. The country offers all the perks of being offshore — low taxes and a favourable regulatory regime — but it's part of the European Union, which makes investors comfortable about handing over huge wads of cash. The operating costs are also seriously low. "Running an office there costs half as much as the rest of Europe — it's a poor man's Geneva," said one manager.

I'm told that the hedgies are colonising the waterfront offices in Valletta and the pretty resort town of Saint Julians — they always get the best bits. About 20 London-based firms set up an office there last year, including the £1 billion oil traders Bluegold, Pamplona Capital and Liongate. So, what do you do in Malta? A country that seems to be famous for two things: its honey (special because it hosts a unique species of bee) and because the artist Caravaggio spent 15 months there. "It's good for boating and fishing," said my local spy this weekend. "The weather is nice, it's not snowing here." There you have it: move to Malta because . . . it's not snowing.

South Carolina Lawmaker Seeks to Ban Federal Currency

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2010/02/17/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry6217403.shtml South Carolina Rep. Mike Pitts has introduced legislation that would mandate that gold and silver coins replace federal currency as legal tender in his state.

As the Palmetto Scoop first reported, Pitts, a Republican, introduced legislation this month banning "the unconstitutional substitution of Federal Reserve Notes for silver and gold coin" in South Carolina.

In an interview, Pitts told Hotsheet that he believes that "if the federal government continues to spend money at the rate it's spending money, and if it continues to print money at the rate it's printing money, our economic system is going to collapse."

"The Germans felt their system wouldn't collapse, but it took a wheelbarrow of money to buy a loaf of bread in the 1930s," he said. "The Soviet Union didn't think their system would collapse, but it did. Ours is capable of collapsing also."
