The tax on banks proposed by Washington guarantees Wall Street $US 4 trillion which means top banks will keep playing the same game in the future, economic trend forecaster Gerald Celente warned.

Goldman Sachs is nothing more than a big hedge fund, period and paragraph. If they went under people dont have go to the ATM machine to get their money out of the Goldman Sachs bank, they do not have Goldman Sachs cheques, they are just fronting for Wall Street and all Wall Street is doing is gambling and their risks are covered by the American taxpayer, said Celente.

America was at its greatest when it was not about Wall Street but Main Street; when it was not about the Walmart but moms and pops and community; when it was not about factory farms but family farms. Everything in America has gone corporate, grieved the forecaster.

Celente concluded by saying, the merger of state and corporate powers, according to Mussolini, who knew a thing or two about it, is called fascism and fascism is coming to America.

Reuters reports that Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick has been talking whilst at Davos about the opportunities for firms like his to clean up recruitment-wise by taking advantage of the concerns many employees now have working for a large US firm.

Lutnick, who confirmed that Cantor was looking to hire up to 350 in its investment banking operations this year, said: ‘We think we will be very well positioned for it and (will) continue our very rapid growth. It improves the business, because we’re hiring all the time and growing all the time. People who are afraid of sticking at banks – it is an opportunity for us to hire some unbelievably talented people’.

The FED Leadership is appointed, we don’t get to vote for them. So who is held responsible? Who did they give the money too? Tax payers have to pay back the FED for their bailing out their favorite institutions and they are telling us that they don’t have to tell us who they helped with money that we have to pay back?

Russia’s central bank decided to start buying Canadian dollars on Wednesday, in an direct snub to both the precarious euro and dollar.
The market for the Canadian dollar is nowhere near the size of other major currency markets, so one imagines that if other central banks catch on in force, it could be great news for the loonie.
FT: Although not officially confirmed, traders said that other emerging market central banks, including some in Asia which hold large foreign exchange reserves, have also been active in the foreign exchange market in recent weeks buying both Canadian dollars and Australian dollars.
Alexei Ulyukayev, first deputy chairman of Russia’s central bank, said that it would invest in Canadian dollar-denominated deposits and bonds. “The Canadian financial market is not very deep, so we can invest in deposits in significant volumes, while the bond market is limited,” he said.
Although the central bank did not specify how much of its reserves it was allocating to assets denominated in the Canadian dollar, analysts estimated that the central bank could put up to $9bn, or 2 per cent, of its foreign exchange reserves into the currency.

The People’s Bank of China, in a statement published on its official website, said that country’s foreign exchange reserve reported a growth of 23.3 per cent and stood at a record US$2.399 trillion by December end. Forex reserve was at US$2.27 trillion by the end of September last year.
China’s foreign exchange reserve continued to rise in recent years due to large scale investments and trading activities despite the adverse impact of global slowdown. The market got good supply of hot money-the short term investment mode in which investors prefer to invest for short term economic gains.
Tom Orlik, an analyst with Stone & McCarthy Research Associates in Beijing, claimed that the country got around $105 billion hot money in 2009.
Meanwhile, export segment of the country, the key driver of forex reserve, recorded a growth of 17.7 per cent in December after falling for 13 consecutive months. China surpassed Europe’s biggest economy in November for becoming the world’s largest exporting nation.
China, according to its western trading partners, intentionally keeps the Yuan’s value low for increasing its export.

I found this video in doing a internet search about something totally unrelated but it is very interesting.
