Markets: The Bad News Aren`t Really Sinking In, Yet

The markets continue really to ignore all of the overwhelming bad news. Bad news on the economy, bad news on the corporate earnings front, on retails ales, you name it. The news is bad. The markets seem to shrug it off, the equity markets, the bond markets, the forex market, the gold and silver market.

I mean, sure there is a knee jerk reaction, we get some bad news and gold spikes up, the dollar dumps but then it recovers what it lost and gold surrenders its gains. The bad news aren`t really sinking in.

U.S. Treasuries Are Not Risk-Free At All

U.S. Treasuries are not risk-free at all because people that own them are going to take a haircut, they are not going to get paid 100 cents on the dollar and if they are it is because the dollar has collapsed and what they get paid will be worth even less.
