Euro Collapse Looms? Interview w/William Engdahl

Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel says the Euro currency is at risk and that Europe faces its greatest challenge since the EU was formed. It comes as stock markets in Europe and Asia tumbled on the surprise news that Berlin was banning types of 'short selling' where investors profit by betting that shares will drop in value.

Engdahl nails the key (unspoken by MSM) point that the whole EU crisis is a diversion brought about by Wallstreet's orchestrated financial warfare - to direct focus away from US financial system / dollar woes and harm the Euro (the only real alternative reserve currency to the US Dollar)

Dow Theory Guru Russell: Stocks Risk Meltdown

Stock may plunge big-time, so investors should get out of the market, says Richard Russell, editor of the Dow Theory Letters.

The important indicators are the Dow Jones industrial average and the Dow Jones transportation average, he wrote in a note to subscribers.

“If the two averages violate their May 7 lows, I see a major crash as the outcome,” Russell said, according to Bloomberg.

“Get out of stocks now (except for gold related shares), and I don’t give a damn whether you have paper losses or paper profits.”

The May 7 low for the Dow industrials was 10,221, about 1.5 percent below recent levels.

And the low for the transportation average was 4,243, about 1.4 percent below recent levels.

“If I read the stock market correctly, it’s telling me that there is a surprise ahead,” Russell wrote. “And that surprise will be a reversal to the downside for the economy, plus a collection of other troubles ahead.”
