Interesting read. Politics has become much more than just politics, leaving little to no room for a political solution.
The cannibal vs. the Satanist: Toxic politics is poisoning Brazil RIO DE JANEIRO — Inside his church in Brazil’s Paraná state, the Rev. Edison Menezes had just delivered a homily denouncing gun ownership when the parishioner interrupted Mass. Taking his words as a slight against pro-gun President Jair Bolsonaro, she accused the priest of backing the left-wing challenger in Sunday’s election. “Is God … in favor of abortion, father? Is he in favor of queer theory?” she demanded, according to a video that has been verified by the church. “You are asking us to vote for Lula!” Menezes, speaking from the altar of the Our Lady of Light Church, denied campaigning for former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. But the outburst this month neatly captured the unholy state of politics in Brazil, where the most toxic election in modern history has deepened polarization in Latin America’s largest nation. From the Amazon jungle to the megacities of the southeast, Brazil’s political division is upending churches, making targets of pollsters and igniting feuds between strangers, friends, family, even branches of government, all while pitting region against region and opening fresh rifts over sexuality, religion and race. . . . https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/the-cannibal-vs-the-satanist-toxic-politics-is-poisoning-brazil/ar-AA13tlto |

But there are worries about German firms becoming too economically reliant on authoritarian China, as the Europe's economic powerhouse smarts from years of over-dependence on Russian gas imports. CEO Martin Brudermueller insisted BASF's expansion plans in the country, where it is building a 10-billion-euro ($10 billion) chemical complex, had not changed. While recognising there are "concerns" about what happens in China politically, he said: "We have business relations which are important for the German economy... We have an extremely profitable China business." The firm had asked "critical questions" about its Chinese investment, but decided that it was "a good opportunity," he said. Speaking more broadly about economic ties, he urged: "Let's move away from China bashing." Germany needed to "look more at ourselves... at our weaknesses," added the chief executive, who will be among a business delegation accompanying Chancellor Olaf Scholz on a visit to China next week. His comment's came after a row erupted in Germany's coalition government about whether to allow a Chinese firm to buy a stake in a Hamburg port terminal. Scholz ultimately defied calls from six ministries to veto the sale over security concerns, instead permitting the company to acquire a reduced stake. Brudermueller also defended the forthcoming China trip: "I think it is a good signal in this moment to go there." Earlier this month, BASF unveiled a plan aimed at cutting costs by 500 million euros, which will be focused on Europe and particularly Germany, and will include job losses. On Wednesday, Brudermueller said costs would have to be cut "permanently" in Europe, citing a weakening regional market and surging energy costs. BASF reported a net profit of 909 million euros in the third quarter, down from 1.25 billion during the same quarter last year. https://www.barrons.com/news/boss-of-germany-s-basf-warns-against-china-bashing-01666789207 Every one but China is going to regret this.

There was an agreement between Russia and Ukraine to permit grain ships to transit the Black Sea on a 1 to 1 basis, each nation exporting 1 ship each, all this despite the ongoing war. The stated reason was for humanitarian reasons to prevent a famine in Africa and the Middle East, areas highly dependent on exports from Ukraine and Russia.
Russia has suspended that agreement today following Ukrainian attacks on Russian naval ships, even though the informal agreement made no requirement for a cessation of naval operations. There is speculation that it will have little effect on the food situation in Africa as most of the grain that can be shipped from Ukraine already has been. ETA: Upon rereading that, I was not clear about one point. The attacks were on Russian combat ships, not cargo ships. |

2 hours ago Remember when all the car dealerships were shut down by Obama? Well Biden is shutting down the refineries. The green regulators gonna regulate. It is unlikely Biden will reopen the closed refineries as they apparently want ppl to be pressured into expensive electric cars. What could go wrong? “Closure of the Houston refinery would increase the risk of fuel shortages in the United States and add pressure to fuel prices, which are already soaring due primarily to President Biden’s anti-oil and gas policies but exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. These refinery closures will leave the United States structurally short of refining capacity for the first time in decades.” https://www.instituteforenergyresearch.org/fossil-fuels/gas-and-oil/another-u-s-refinery-slated-to-close/ Another U.S. Refinery Slated to Close Another U.S. refinery is planning to close by 2024 and maybe earlier, joining six others that have already shuttered. The Houston refinery, which is operated by LyondellBasell industries, is slated to close at the end of 2023 due to the financial burden of upgrading its infrastructure and to advance its decarbonization goals pushed by the Biden administration. The U.S. refining industry has already lost 800,000 barrels of production over the last several years and this closure will add over 200,000 barrels per day to it. The previous refinery closures largely reflect the impact of reduced demand due to the COVID-19 lockdowns on the U.S. refining sector. In 2020, the pandemic contributed to a substantial decrease in demand for motor fuels and refined petroleum products, which put downward pressure on refinery margins and made market conditions more challenging for refinery operators. Closure of the Houston refinery would increase the risk of fuel shortages in the United States and add pressure to fuel prices, which are already soaring due primarily to President Biden’s anti-oil and gas policies but exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. These refinery closures will leave the United States structurally short of refining capacity for the first time in decades. With about half the U.S. refining capacity located along the Gulf Coast, the United States will be particularly vulnerable if additional hurricanes should hit the Gulf Coast area. Houston Refinery The Houston refinery, which is among the top 25 largest-capacity facilities in the United States, could shut down earlier if an “equipment failure” spreads to major units. The refinery processes 268,000 barrels per day of oil and produces 92,600 barrels per day of diesel fuel, 89,000 barrels per day of gasoline and 44,500 barrels per day of jet fuel. Originally built by Sinclair Petroleum in 1918, the refinery has been owned by Atlantic Richfield (ARCO) and was operated jointly with Citgo until sold to the Netherlands-owned LyondellBasell in 2006. To close the plant, LyondellBasell is expecting charges, mostly consisting of $300 to $400 million for accelerated amortization of operating lease assets, $150 to $250 million for asset decommissioning, and around $200 million in other costs. U.S. Refining Industry The six refineries that shuttered in 2020 had a distillation capacity of 801,000 barrels of oil per day. In addition, five refineries with a capacity of 408,100 barrels of oil per day are idle—the largest number of idle refineries since 2012. In 2021, the U.S. refining industry had an operating capacity of 17.7 million barrels per day of oil and produced about 9.5 million barrels per day of gasoline, 4.7 million barrels per day of diesel fuel and 1.3 million barrels per day of jet fuel. This year, for the first time in history, China is expected to surpass the U.S. in refining capacity, reaching 18.8 million barrels per day. What Can Be Expected The continued decline in domestic refinery capacity could signal a long-term domestic fuel supply shortfall. Diesel fuel supplies have hit all-time lows on the East Coast and the U.S. stockpile has hit a nearly two-decade low. The nationwide stockpile of distillate fuel oil declined to about 104 million barrels in early May, the lowest level since April 2008. East Coast inventories declined to 20.97 million barrels of diesel at the end of May—about two weeks supply—the lowest level since data was first recorded in 1990. The average cost of diesel fuel is $5.775 a gallon—the highest level ever recorded. Diesel is vital for the construction, mining and agriculture sectors, and is central to our transportation and logistics systems. In 2020, the transportation industry alone consumed 122 million gallons of diesel per day. Gasoline prices have hit multiple records in recent weeks. The U.S. average national gasoline price on June 14, 2022 was $5.016 a gallon—63 percent higher than a year ago and over double from when Biden took office. While Biden likes to blame the high prices on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the unused leases that the oil companies rent on federal land, and a myriad of other excuses, the truth of the matter is that he campaigned on ending oil and gas drilling and he and his administration are working toward that goal without regard to the American people and their needs. Besides that, he keeps promising American oil and gas to Europe in its time of need but does nothing to increase oil and gas production or infrastructure at home. Oil and gas exploration and production is expensive and no company is going to invest those funds if the policies from the Presidency are anti-oil and gas or if pipelines cannot be completed. Goldman Sachs predicted that oil prices could hit $140 per barrel this summer, up from about $120 currently, as gasoline prices approach or exceed $5 a gallon throughout the United States. The situation could worsen because there are no plans to add significant refining capacity due to the severe regulations governing them. In fact, by the end of 2023, an additional 1.69 million barrels of U.S. refining capacity is expected to close—over 5 times as much as the Houston refinery. Conclusion The Biden administration has reportedly considered addressing the declining refining capacity by restarting idled refineries, but has yet to act on the issue. If his other actions are an example, Biden will do nothing since he and his administration want higher oil and gasoline prices to force Americans into electric vehicles that are increasing in cost due to a lack of minerals needed for their production and their batteries. During a time when inflation is sky-rocketing, asking the American people to purchase an electric vehicle that costs more than traditional vehicles and gets its fuel from an increasingly expensive and troubled grid makes no sense. |

These isn't enough electricity in Commiefornia now, with brownouts and blackouts already. Sure, let's force internal combustion engines out of existence by rule and closure of drilling and refining. How are you gonna mine the materials, move them, and assemble them into electric vehicles, and then, how to power them?
These people cannot be that dumb. They know there is no way to charge even a quarter of the vehicles now on the road. The would be "masters of the universe" don't intend for the serfs to have privately owned vehicles. |

U.S. LNG Cannot Replace The Russian Natural Gas That Europe Has Lost
Europe has relied on U.S. LNG imports to offset the loss of Russian gas, with nearly 70% of U.S. LNG exports heading to Europe in September. In the long term, Europe will have to find other sources of natural gas as its inventories are likely to drain over the upcoming winter. Ultimately, Europe will have to reduce demand for natural gas going forward as there is very little available supply left. Europe cannot rely solely on imports of U.S. LNG to offset the pipeline gas supply it will have lost from Russia when it starts rebuilding inventories after the end of this winter, according to BloombergNEF. So far this year, American LNG has been crucial in meeting demand in Europe, which is scrambling for gas supply and willing to pay up for spot deliveries, outbidding most of Asia. The United States is shipping record volumes of LNG to Europe to help EU allies and nearly 70% of all American LNG exports were headed to Europe in September, according to Refinitiv Eikon data cited by Reuters. However, the significant drop in Russian gas supply this year occurred only in June, meaning that Europe could still stock up on some Russian gas earlier this year. Ahead of the 2023/2024 winter, however, the gap in gas supply in Europe will be much wider without Russian gas. Europe will not be importing much Russian gas—or none at all if Russia cuts off deliveries via the one link left operational via Ukraine and via TurkStream—compared to relatively stable imports from Russia in the first half of this year, before Moscow started gradually cutting volumes via Nord Stream in June until shutting down the pipeline in early September. “The year-on-year increase is not sufficient to offset a total cut in Russian piped supply with under half of these volumes met by LNG increases,” BNEF analyst Arun Toora said. “The good news is that Russia looks close to having played its last card in terms of gas leverage over Europe. However Europe’s challenges will not disappear with the daffodils next spring,” London-based consultancy Timera Energy said in a winter gas market outlook at the beginning of October. Without most of the Russian gas supply, Europe will likely need to offset around 40 bcm of additional lost Russian flows next year. LNG alone cannot meet this volume, considering a lack of new global liquefaction capacity in the short-term, including in the U.S., limited further demand elasticity in Asia, and European regasification capacity constraints. Therefore, European demand will need to fall, Timera Energy said. https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/US-LNG-Cannot-Replace-The-Russian-Natural-Gas-That-Europe-Has-Lost.html |

If the Philadelphia Phillies win the World Series, prepare for an economic crisis
The Philadelphia Phillies are in the World Series. Hold on to your wallets. When Philadelphia baseball teams do well, in a pattern that has held for a century, financial markets tend to strike out. It started with the old Philadelphia Athletics (before they left town). Their 1929 championship preceded the stock crash and Great Depression. In 1980, the Phillies won their first World Series, and a recession raged right through 1983, when the team again got to the final round and lost. The Phils won the World Series a second time in 2008, and boom: a home-run financial crisis. Now, the scrappy Phils will be back on the big stage against the favored Houston Astros, and it is as if this struggling economy already knew it was going to be in trouble. "The Astros must save America’s economy," tweeted one follower of the finance-focused Morning Brew newsletter, which commented on the historical phenomenon in September, even before the Phillies had made the playoffs. Another lamented the Phillies’ victory on Sunday over the San Diego Padres, which vaulted them into the World Series: "PADRES COULD HAVE STOPPED THE INCOMING RECESSION." Of course, this analysis has as much scientific basis as the team’s claim that the Phillie Phanatic mascot is a large flightless bird from the Galápagos Islands. But investors, especially in rough markets, like to think there is dark magic causing their pain (rather than simply the fundamentals of the economy or their bad bets). And sports fans don’t mind anything that seems to throw a little cold water on Philadelphia. So now, we have the Phillies Indicator. In 2008, when the Phils were on their way to a championship, the Philadelphia Inquirer wondered if a victory could be a "harbinger of economic doom." Locally based analysts at serious-minded Moody’s Economy.com postulated then that the team’s success could be a "leading economic indicator." Mark Zandi, chief economist at what is now called Moody’s Analytics, speculates that because the Phillies have won the World Series so few times, when they do, "It is clear something is off the rails in the cosmos." As a Philadelphia native, he says he will cheer a Phillies championship, "but I will also be buckling in." Morning Brew tweeted about the Phillies quirk on Sept. 21, then revisited the topic as the team continued to win. Neal Freyman, its managing editor, says he knew the thing had traction when his mother called, reporting that the topic was just brought up at a business meeting by colleagues, unaware that her son gets some of the credit/blame. In sports and markets, he says, "A lot of people are superstitious and like to cling on to narratives and try to explain the unexplainable." What does Citizens Financial Group Inc. think? The Phillies’ stadium, Citizens Bank Park, is named after its retail banking arm. Might winning at baseball mean losing at finance? "Coincidences are interesting, but sliding into a possible downturn has nothing to do with the Phillies," says Bruce Van Saun, chairman and chief executive officer of Citizens, after praising the team’s grit. "We look forward to hosting a World Series victory while continuing to root for our economy." The Phillies declined to comment. (Baseball teams get superstitious during a positive run.) Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at investment-research firm CFRA Research in New York, notes there is a reverse correlation here. Phillies pain might mean stock gains. The markets did well, rising 14.6%, in 1964—that awful baseball year for Philadelphia when the team blew an almost-sure berth in the World Series, scarring a generation of fans. Mr. Stovall has a soft spot for fanciful indicators. His late father, Robert Stovall, popularized the Super Bowl Predictor, which predicts a given year’s stock market based on results of the Super Bowl. Stocks seem to go up for the year when an original National Football League team wins, and down if the winner is originally from the old, premerger American Football League (which is why the many wins by the New England Patriots are bearish for stocks). The indicator hasn’t worked as well in recent years, but it nonetheless has been right after 41 of the 55 Super Bowls, a 75% rate. That is better than a lot of economists’ predictions. If so, Philadelphia’s other winning sports team, football’s Eagles, might also have a say in the markets. The Eagles, currently 6-0 and the NFL’s only undefeated team, have been to three Super Bowls in their history: 1981, 2005 and 2018. The first two times, they lost to an original AFL team, and the Dow dutifully fell, so the Predictor worked. Then again, when the Eagles finally won in 2018, which indicated the market would rise, stocks ultimately fumbled. Phillies supporters, meanwhile, think the team should keep winning without apology. Ruben Amaro Jr., a former Phillies player and general manager, now a baseball commentator, says, "The world needs Phillies joy in times of financial stress." Memo to Houston: Don’t sneer too much at Philadelphia’s history with predicting financial crises. Investors can’t forget that the World Series starts Friday at an Astros ballpark that was once named Enron Field. https://www.foxbusiness.com/sports/if-philadelphia-phillies-win-world-series-prepare-economic-crisis |

In sports and markets, he says, "A lot of people are superstitious and like to cling on to narratives and try to explain the unexplainable." What does Citizens Financial Group Inc. think? The Phillies’ stadium, Citizens Bank Park, is named after its retail banking arm. Might winning at baseball mean losing at finance? "Coincidences are interesting, but sliding into a possible downturn has nothing to do with the Phillies," says Bruce Van Saun, chairman and chief executive officer of Citizens, after praising the team’s grit. "We look forward to hosting a World Series victory while continuing to root for our economy." The Phillies declined to comment. (Baseball teams get superstitious during a positive run.) Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at investment-research firm CFRA Research in New York, notes there is a reverse correlation here. Phillies pain might mean stock gains. The markets did well, rising 14.6%, in 1964—that awful baseball year for Philadelphia when the team blew an almost-sure berth in the World Series, scarring a generation of fans. Mr. Stovall has a soft spot for fanciful indicators. His late father, Robert Stovall, popularized the Super Bowl Predictor, which predicts a given year’s stock market based on results of the Super Bowl. Stocks seem to go up for the year when an original National Football League team wins, and down if the winner is originally from the old, premerger American Football League (which is why the many wins by the New England Patriots are bearish for stocks). The indicator hasn’t worked as well in recent years, but it nonetheless has been right after 41 of the 55 Super Bowls, a 75% rate. That is better than a lot of economists’ predictions. If so, Philadelphia’s other winning sports team, football’s Eagles, might also have a say in the markets. The Eagles, currently 6-0 and the NFL’s only undefeated team, have been to three Super Bowls in their history: 1981, 2005 and 2018. The first two times, they lost to an original AFL team, and the Dow dutifully fell, so the Predictor worked. Then again, when the Eagles finally won in 2018, which indicated the market would rise, stocks ultimately fumbled. Phillies supporters, meanwhile, think the team should keep winning without apology. Ruben Amaro Jr., a former Phillies player and general manager, now a baseball commentator, says, "The world needs Phillies joy in times of financial stress." Memo to Houston: Don’t sneer too much at Philadelphia’s history with predicting financial crises. Investors can’t forget that the World Series starts Friday at an Astros ballpark that was once named Enron Field. https://www.foxbusiness.com/sports/if-philadelphia-phillies-win-world-series-prepare-economic-crisis View Quote Reminds me of this post from a few weeks ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/Wallstreetsilver/comments/xzx82u/market_crash_confirmed/ Attached File |

The company is building up its business in Asia as its European operations come under pressure, particularly due to the surging price of energy triggered by the Ukraine war. But there are worries about German firms becoming too economically reliant on authoritarian China, as the Europe's economic powerhouse smarts from years of over-dependence on Russian gas imports. CEO Martin Brudermueller insisted BASF's expansion plans in the country, where it is building a 10-billion-euro ($10 billion) chemical complex, had not changed. While recognising there are "concerns" about what happens in China politically, he said: "We have business relations which are important for the German economy... We have an extremely profitable China business." The firm had asked "critical questions" about its Chinese investment, but decided that it was "a good opportunity," he said. Speaking more broadly about economic ties, he urged: "Let's move away from China bashing." Germany needed to "look more at ourselves... at our weaknesses," added the chief executive, who will be among a business delegation accompanying Chancellor Olaf Scholz on a visit to China next week. His comment's came after a row erupted in Germany's coalition government about whether to allow a Chinese firm to buy a stake in a Hamburg port terminal. Scholz ultimately defied calls from six ministries to veto the sale over security concerns, instead permitting the company to acquire a reduced stake. Brudermueller also defended the forthcoming China trip: "I think it is a good signal in this moment to go there." Earlier this month, BASF unveiled a plan aimed at cutting costs by 500 million euros, which will be focused on Europe and particularly Germany, and will include job losses. On Wednesday, Brudermueller said costs would have to be cut "permanently" in Europe, citing a weakening regional market and surging energy costs. BASF reported a net profit of 909 million euros in the third quarter, down from 1.25 billion during the same quarter last year. https://www.barrons.com/news/boss-of-germany-s-basf-warns-against-china-bashing-01666789207 Every one but China is going to regret this.

‘IT’S DONE’: Did Liz Truss text Antony Blinken after Nord Stream attack?
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss sent a text message saying ‘it’s done’ to the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken immediately after the Nord Stream attack, according to a controversial online commentator. Kim Dotcom, a self-proclaimed ‘Internet Freedom Fighter’, says the text message is the reason Russia believes the United Kingdom was involved in blowing up the gas pipeline. “Liz Truss used her iPhone to send a message to Secretary Blinken saying ‘it’s done’ a minute after the pipeline blew up and before anybody else knew,” he told his nearly one million Twitter followers. Dotcom, who was born Kim Schmitz in West Germany, suggested the data was obtained through an iCloud hack. “It’s not just the Five Eyes that have backdoor admin access to all Big Tech databases,” he said. “Russia and China have sophisticated cyber units too. The funny thing is Govt officials with top security clearance still prefer using iPhones over their NSA & GCHQ issued encrypted shit-phones.” Liz Truss text: Fact or fiction? It’s is important to note that Kim Dotcom, who now resides in New Zealand, did not offer any form of factual evidence to back up his claim. There are indeed reports that Liz Truss’ phone was hacked, however that dates back to her time as UK foreign secretary. The UK’s Mail on Sunday reported that private messages between Truss and other international foreign ministers, including some about Ukraine, fell into foreign hands. Other Nord Stream conspiracy theories The Nord Stream attack, which made global headlines in September, has indeed attracted a lot of unfounded speculation and conspiracy theories. Earlier this month, there were claims an expert investigating the blasts, Erik Olsen, has died suddenly and he was “cremated within hours”. The following day, a Norwegian marine researcher named Erik Olsen, took the unusual step of confirming he wasn’t dead and that Twitter users had confused him for a “Swedish namesake”. “My retweet of a foreign affairs article was noticed and several people mistook me for a Swedish namesake who (supposedly) was in charge of investigating the Nordstream sabotage and died under suspicious circumstances,” he said. “The whole story seems based on rumours, but it was picked up by Asia Markets who even pointed out that there was a Twitter account of a Norwegian man who they claim is the investigator.” https://www.asiamarkets.com/did-liz-truss-text-antony-blinken-after-nord-stream/ |

View Quote I don't watch a lot of these videos. But some of them really catch my eye for reasons I can't explain. This one did. Employees of the iPhone plant are escaping their dormitories in an attempt to walk all the way home to other cities. Some of them are caught, sprayed with antiseptic and sent back. Others escape by various means. People along the way sometimes provide them with food and drink. Why are they escaping a good paying job like the iPhone assembly plant? 1) They are in yet another of China's zero tolerance covid lockdowns. So the employees are locked in their dormitories. 2) Rumors that they are running out of food motivate them to escape those dormitories. Are they running out of food? Good question. It's hard to get accurate information out of China. But there seems to be enough fear that they are fleeing whether they have food or not. It seems to me things would have to be pretty bad before they simply walked away from food and shelter. If there was sufficient food to feed people in their dorms, I can't see thousands of people attempting a trek across the country side unless there really was some kind of food crisis. |
