MSNBC Asks: Is The Police Response to the London Attacks Too Much?

Richard Lui from MSNBC, home of the enemy media, asked Mustafa Tameez, former consultant to DHS, if the police response to the London attacks were too extreme. After all, only 7 people were butchered to death, 48 injured. This could hardly be considered an actual event. Bear in mind, over 500,000 people have been slain in Syria and the Christian crusades killed a gorillion people. Ergo, this is merely part of living in a big city — like a burglar on your fire escape knifing all of your neighbors to pieces.

Here’s an eyewitness account of the events in London.

British Media Reporting London Bridge Attacks as ‘Crude’ Team of Lone Wolves

Aren’t you glad to have that giant ocean between you and the nutjobs in Europe?

Three men mowed people down and exited their clowncar on the London Bridge and began knifing people to death — screaming ‘this is for Allah’ — and the British media is reporting this as a ‘team’ of lone wolves committing a rather crude, yet heinous, act of terror on the British people. The fellow in the beginning of this clip was rather impressed by the ‘rapid’ response by the British police, only taking 8 fucking minutes to arrive at the scene, where 6 people were murdered, 30 injured.


Multiculturalism is necessary, so that banks can issue credit cards and student loans. Anyone who views this attack as some sort of depraved Islamic orgy of human sacrifice isn’t seeing the profit opportunity of having these pavement apes man factory machinery and bankrupt themselves under a mountain of 35% yielding plastic card bank debt.

Happy Saturday: Here Are the Top Rated Stocks in Exodus

It’s a delightful day outside, so I have little reason to cavort with the likes of you on the interwebs. Before I head out again, into the pollen infested world I reside in, I wanted to share Exodus‘ top rated stocks with you.

Here are the top 10 by Hybrid scores, which includes fundamentals scores. And below that will be pure technical, for all of you chart-faggot loving mother llamas.

AAOI, CPRT, MGA, GLW, FIG, DAL, CGA, ORBK, HF, ESL.

WTW, CPRT, TGTX, PBYI, EXAS, AAOI, SHOP, ROX, INVH, XENT.

Any opinions on the aforementioned names? Huh? What do you people do at your housing tenements during summer days? Do you take a wrench to the fire hydrant, open it up and jump inside the stream — as some burly man directs the water at oncoming cars — hoping to cause fatal accidents?

Putin Rebukes US Election Meddling Charge, says America Has Been ‘Unceremoniously interfering’ in Russian Affairs and It Has to Stop

In her first major interview since landing at NBC, a disheveled Megyn Kelly pressed Putin about US interference in John Podesta’s email box. Recoiling from the suggestion, Putin ripped out his earpiece, chastised Megyn for being the ‘gold standard’ in American journalism, and then proceeded to entertain his oligarch filled captive audience, declaring the United States has been ‘Unceremoniously interfering’ in domestic Russian affairs and that it had to stop.

Take that deep state.

HYSTERICAL BREAKDOWN: A Tear Drenched Kathy Griffin Declares “HE BROKE ME”

The irony of this presser is that it was very funny, much better than her cringeworthy stand up routines. She is, without question, a talentless wench and should be ferried to Guantanamo Bay, to live and to serve, with the rest of the terrorists in our possession.

Here is Kathy Griffin, libshit superstar, ‘apologizing’ to her fans, saying “I’m not going to be collateral damage for this fool”, referring to the President. She then added the administration was using her as a ‘distraction’ and that she didn’t feel her career could recover.

Drenched in faux tears, wrinkly faced and without a spry bone in her body, Griffin declared, “I’m gonna be honest, he broke me. (introspective pause) He broke me.”

She capped off her ‘apology’ by describing how scared all of her friends are of the Giant Orange Menace in the White House, destructor of air and the environment — evil Lord ensconced in a denizen of the middle earth from which toxins are produced and readily disseminated towards impoverished parts of the Universe.


Formerly employed at CNN Fake News, Ms. Griffin sheds fake tears

The Bull Market is Back…For U.S. Treasuries

We’re at an odd crossroads here, with both the S&P 500 and U.S. Treasuries climbing at the same time. Typically, they hedge one another. In the past, when stocks traded down, bonds went up and vice versa. Now, the stock market is being jimmy rigged higher by a mega cap charge, which is also creating enough uncertainty to create demand for treasuries. The idea that Trump will get anything done, other than tear apart Obama’s legacy, isn’t something investors are counting on anymore. People are buying AMZN, NFLX, GOOGL, MSFT and AAPL because they think the ride will continue, regardless of an infrastructure bill or tax reform.

But is this a wise bet?

US Bonds yields are at 6 mo lows

I’m tempted to start buying zero coupons bonds to capture the beta in the bond market now, via ZROZ, but have abstained because, deep down, I do not believe the bond market has much upside. The market might take the month off for June, especially since the broader indices are overdue to digest their gains, which might lead to MOAR gains in GLD/TLT.

I’ll be making my adjustments in Exodus today, swapping out of my current cadre of stocks for a new set, likely adding to both GLD/TLT in the process.

Bonds Yields Plunge After May Jobs Report Disappoints

The narrative being weaved here is weaker than expected economy equates to a do nothing Fed. If the Fed isn’t going to hike, hike, hike, then the deflationary vortex may commence — sweeping into it the entire stock market.

The May jobs report missed estimates: 138K vs 185K

Futures have been halved and are barely higher.

WTI crude is sinking lower, now off by 2.2%

The euro is skyrocketing v the dollar, higher by 0.5%.

Gold reversed losses and is now +0.52%.

And, most importantly, bond yields are getting crushed — with the US 10yr down 5bps to 2.17% Because the 2yr is only down by 2bps, that means the US yield curve is flattening again, which should bode poorly for US equities, especially banks.

The US yield curve spread is only 89bps now!!!

By the looks of it, I might be reducing my equity exposure after all, in exchange for more GLD/TLT.

Markets Set to Rock Higher; Oil Crushed Lower

At least for a day, the greatest transfer of wealth from west to east the world has ever known has ceased. Futures traders, clad in their grandmother’s pajamas, are ignoring the indecorous dismantling of WTI crude, now lower by nearly 2%, and, ostensibly, bidding stocks higher off the back-hand of President Donald Trump removing America from the very unfair and evil Paris accord.

Copper is also down by more than 2%, a foreboding sign that global growth isn’t exactly steaming ahead. Nevertheless, the German DAX doesn’t seem to care, now higher by 1.6%.

NASDAQ futures are +19.

Pre-market, both RH, BOOT and ZUMZ have been obliterated, while LULU, GOOS and AVGO are enjoying the fruits of western hedonism,

Happy Friday.
