FWC: Venture capital is sucking (your money) story
One thing that economists don't understand at all is the role of financial fraud in the US economy since mid-1990s, especially, the transformation of the stock market into the Scam Market with the help of Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein, serving the VCs and corporate crooks of Silly.con Valley—the valley that fraud built (remember: what fraud giveth fraud taketh away!). If they did, they would it would be bad for their business and they would lose their influence! Under the current system, economists must serve the Crooks if they wish to be relevant and the VCs of Silly.con Valley have been the top Crooks. Let us look at the graph from the article that plots relative performance, ratio, of all VC firms w.r.t. the S&P500.
"So what happened was that before the dot-com bubble burst in 2000, VCs did amazingly well. In the decade since, they've done slightly worse than the S&P 500 - in other words, they've done so poorly that you'd have been  better off buying Ye Olde Vanguard 500."
From 1995 to 2000, the Scam Market fraud, the Scam Options and acquisitions accounting, accounted for all that great relative performance of the VCs served by Crooks like John Chambers of Cisco, who also helped themselves in the process. This one Crook, deploying many methods of allowable unethical practices, and in effect defrauding the unsuspecting sharecroppers by improper accounting, is responsible of approx. $200B of fraudulent transfer from public shareholders to various groups with the top loot going to the VCs and employees of Cisco and various companies acquired by Cisco. Muhammad of Ghazni, who plundered the infidel Hindus in India several times, would be jealous. But, Jas, no one could have known this. Cisco's Market Cap today is 105.62B. Chambers must be a magician making hundreds of billions in shareholder "wealth" disappear.
"VC firm performance also appears to be highly skewed - a few firms are making most of the money."
Some VC firms in Silly.con Valley are the chosen ones. They are engaged in insidious business practices that are legal under the System of the Crooks. All those working in the Silly.con Valley tech sector, especially, the VC funded companies, are accomplices in the fraud. I know, all the beneficiaries of the fraud can justify their actions. Worry not, the day of reckoning is nearing (two to three years max) and the economic tsunami that would hit Silly.con Valley, unleashed by the Greater Depression that could not be stopped, would be far greater than an earthquake of 9.0. There are consequences to building an economy on fraud. Anyone with any sense would cash out and move out before the tsunami hits.

Jas,

First, I'll start off by saying that Hussman is relatively a good read.  But how he can CONtinually claim we're in a "rising" interest rate environment is beyond me.  Every time interest rates have a short term blip upwards Hussman sounds the "rising" interest rate alarm.  Talk about missing the big picture! 

 

I stopped reading Hussman a couple of years ago. One would lose nothing, and gain valuable time, by ignoring ALL born-and-bred American dope dealers on the subjects of economics, investments, and political systems, e.g., democracy. American dopes have been informed by propaganda all their lives by dope dealers and don't know how to square the outcomes with their currently held beliefs. Americans are extremely conservative in preserving their false beliefs no matter the evidence because there is always someone else to blame for the contrary outcomes. No one is there to take responsibility.

 

Guru's never lose the ability to see what they want to see.   Even the seemingly honest eCONomic guru's are blinded by ideologies and bogus theories that are easily disproven

And the blind faithful never question the Guru.

 

That is why the faithful are such obedient dopes. Dope dealers like Limbaugh love them and rack up the dough. I feel pity when I listen to Limbaugh dopes calling the Maharushi to confirm their ideas, or observations. Nothing can save America from born-and-bred American dope dealers under the current system that thrives on propaganda. The democratic mind has cursed America. The system needs to collapse for any chance at change for the better. Why would things get better as long as we have the same partisan dopes that vote, the same dope dealers leading them, and the same system that benefits the Crooks and their agents, the dope dealers and the politicians, at the expense of the rest? The game is rigged. The Crooks love it; the dope dealers love it; but why do dopes love it? Please ignore the question because the answer is self-evident. Hussman, like all dope dealers, collects his fees. We are living in the golden age for dope dealers. Breeding dopes is the best game in town!

P.S.: Guru Lakshman Achuthan of ECRI seems to have fallen on hard times for forecasting a recession before it happens, a bad career move for an economist.

When the Bernanke Threat Finally Materializes

Bernanke was the single most responsible individual for the global economic crisis of 2008 made in the USA. Greenspan was close second. However, it was simply the early warning of the main event that would start the process of collapse of the US econo-political system, as it has existed. It would lead to global mayhem and dismantling of democracies one-by-one. People like Bernanke and Obama wouldn't have any power but for democracy.

It wouldn't take 5 years, but it could start at any time beginning in 2013. Downgrade of the US debt by all credit rating agencies, or serious threat of downgrade that would lead to drastic cuts in the US govt spending, would be the most likely trigger. Of course, Bernanke and his defenders would blame the politicians, as most Americans do. You can't defend democracy and then blame politicians. Under the American system, all govt power resides with politicians and their appointees. Bernanke is the worst of these appointees. He is a bipartisan threat!
