Stacy Summary: Well, Google/NSA are about to go full steam ahead to the dark side. We all knew this would happen, of course, for in an Orwellian world must often understand most statements of intent and mottos to mean the exact opposite.

Stacy Summary: Conflicting reports on the death of Matt Simmons late last night at the age of 67. He either drowned at home; or died of heart attack. Or it was probably both. He was quite prominent during the BP oil spill; and I did see some on the Oil Drum suggest that because he wasn’t making his normal sense, he might be ill.

Stacy Summary: It gets worse and worse for Moscow; this is not going to help their bond market. And we’ll have to wait and see if force majeure is declared on these Russian wheat contracts and, if so, what the knock on effect will be.

Stacy Summary: Another great interview with Janet Tavakoli. Here she talks about Ambac being to Citi what AIG was to Goldman and, importantly, asks what about Sarbanes-Oxley? Why have Citi and Goldman merely paid fines for their accounting fraud? We’re interviewing William K. Black for this Thursday’s Keiser Report and we plan on asking him this.

Stacy Summary: I missed the first 90 seconds of the interview with Danny Schechter, director and producer of Plunder: The Crime of Our Time. The missing bit is mostly just the intro to the guest, let’s go do New York and talk to Danny Schechter, blah blah blah. The first question was something along the lines of, “Three years ago this month, the financial crisis began. How are things today?” **UPDATE:** Link to full program.

Stacy Summary: I know, I know, climate has nothing to do with markets, finance or economy. You don’t need to tell me again. But, for those that are interested in the economic impact of the almost monthly once in 1,000 year floods and heatwaves, the story below offers some information.

I’m more tired than I’ve been in a long time. It started at 8:30 this morning, my assistants showed up at 11:00, we got to shooting by 12:30 and didn’t finished until after 22:00. It was a long day. I was able to keep schedule for the most part, we only went about an hour and a half over what was planned. More

Stacy Summary: I can’t believe it took an entire generation, but, alas, Americans are finally stepping away from their slavery to Microsoft’s sh*&^y products. (Full disclosure, I’ve owned a Mac since 1986 & have never owned a PC though have had to use one at most of my previous jobs).
