Home Prices Soar At 3 Times The Fed’s Inflation Target Across All US Cities

The Fed’s most frequent lament is that no matter how many trillions in bonds (and stocks and ETFs) it buys or how much liquidity it forehoses into the market, it just can’t push broader inflation higher.

Well, here’s an idea: maybe all the central-planning megabrains at the Marriner Eccles building and 33 Liberty Street can take a break from whatever circle jerk they are engaged in right now, and look at the latest Case Shiller numbers which showed not only that home prices surged at the fastest pace in six years, rising nearly 8% compared to a year ago…

Why does this matter? Simple: Because if – as Joseph Carson mused last month – CPI measured actual house prices, inflation would be above 3% right now. Read More

Hezbollah’s Banking Arm Hacked, Sensitive Information Leaked

A group of hackers calling itself SpiderZ on Tuesday claimed it managed to penetrate accounts of Qard al-Hasan, Hezbollah’s financial and banking arm, The Daily Star of Lebanon reported (Hezbollah’s banking arm hacked by cyber group).

SpiderZ claimed it hacked into the servers and cameras of Hezbollah’s financial association and collected sensitive information it is in the process of leaking to the public. So far, they have exposed passport copies, names of depositors including senior bank officials, and security footage of depositors waiting in line.

The Al-Qard Al-Hassan Association was established by Hezbollah and licensed by the Lebanese Ministry of the Interior in 1987. Today it has 32 branches around Lebanon, operating as a charity offering financial assistance to the Shiite population.

A video posted by the SpiderZ group states that they have captured all of the Hezbollah bank’s data, adding that their findings confirm that Al-Qard Al-Hassan is not a charity but a money shelter for Hezbollah. Read More

Democrat Jon Ossoff Raised Nearly Six Times More in California than Georgia

Georgia Senate Democrat Jon Ossoff raised nearly six times more in California than he did in Georgia, according to a recent Federal Election Commission (FEC) report.

Breitbart News reported Sunday that Ossoff, who hopes to defeat Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) in January, became the highest-funded candidate in the history of U.S. Senate elections as he raised $106.7 million between October 15 and December 16.

This is also the record for the most raised in two months.

As Ossoff broke fundraising records during this FEC reporting period, it also appears the Georgia Senate Democrat candidate also raised significantly more money in California than the Peach State. Read More

Leftist “Microaggression” Training Doesn’t Work — BETTER Social Engineering Required

In a “Thank you, Captain Obvious” moment, a university study has found that microaggression training doesn’t work as intended.

For those not up to speed on the trendiest new species of intellectual degradation, a microaggression (silly term) is a usually normal comment that’s often meant to be complimentary, but which is perceived by an indoctrinated listener as reflecting implicit bias toward a “marginalized community,” as writer Michele Barnwell, who really does write very well, puts it.

An example is, “Everyone can succeed in this society, if they work hard enough” (seriously), according to “social scientists.” Then there’s the macro version of microaggressions. Example:

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy” — president-suspect Joe Biden talking about Barack Obama in 2007.  Read More

ANOTHER ISRAELI LAWMAKER ENTERS TEMPLE MOUNT, CALLS TO BUILD 3RD TEMPLE

“But look only to the site that Hashem your God will choose amidst all your tribes as His habitation, to establish His name there. There you are to go.” Deuteronomy 12:5 (The Israel BibleTM)

A new Member of Knesset, a resident of the Golan, firmly established his political path with a powerful act of faith by praying on the Temple Mount.

NISSIM VATURI: CONNECTING THE GOLAN TO THE TEMPLE MOUNT AND THE KNESSET

Likud won 36 seats In the last elections but recent infighting led to longtime Likudnik Gideon Sa’ar breaking away to form his own party. Rather than weaken the party, the move allowed new and enthusiastic members to step into the breach.  Nissim Vaturi, as the 40th candidate on the Likud list, stepped up, representing a unique and necessary voice in the government. Sworn in two weeks ago, Vaturi made a bold declaration of his intentions by ascending to the Temple Mount on.

“This was my first time on the Temple Mount,” Vaturi told Israel365News. “I wanted to go sooner, but since I was sworn in two weeks ago, I haven’t had a free moment. I felt it was important for my new function to connect to the source, the basis of our sanctity as a nation. The Knesset is based in the Biblical mandate to establish an assembly of leaders. It is, of course, different than what we had in the Bible but someone who represents Israel cannot be disconnected from the Creator. We are all anticipating the Redemption. This is far more important than anything material.” Read More

 

 

WHO Chief Scientist Warns “No Evidence COVID Vaccine Prevents Viral Transmission”

Once again, the WHO has stepped in to offer some confusing comments about the coronavirus vaccine, warning that there is “no evidence to be confident shots prevent transmission” and that people who receive the vaccine should continue wearing masks and following all social distancing and travel guidelines.

The comments were made by WHO chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan during what appears to have been a virtual press conference held Monday. Read More

Travel Insurers Likely To Make Vaccination A Requirement, New Report Finds

Yet another sector of the travel industry has signalled that it could mandate vaccination against coronavirus to provide services to travellers, according to a report that notes insurers may demand to see proof of vaccination before covering those wishing to go on holiday.

The international Travel and Health Insurance Journal reports that “If the EU obliges travellers to vaccinate, travel insurance providers may refuse to cover those who decline to have the vaccination.

The report notes that the European Union has previously indicated that travellers and anyone applying for a visa could be mandated to get the vaccine in order to enter and move between EU countries.

“If EU makes vaccines mandatory, travel insurers will likely follow suit,” the journal emphasises.

Georgia runoffs will be one of the first key risk events for the market going into the new year

Will Republicans keep hold of the Senate or can Democrats seize control?

The two runoff elections will take place on 5 January next year i.e. next Tuesday, with plenty on the line in determining how US politics will shape up under Biden’s administration over the coming year(s).
As things stand, Republicans hold 50 seats and Democrats 48 seats in the Senate.
For Republicans to keep control, they would only need to win one of the two runoffs while Democrats need to win both to technically take control of the Senate. A tie will result in vice president-elect, Kamala Harris, breaking the deadlock. Read More

Spain to keep registry of people who refuse Covid vaccine

  • Health minister: “It is not a document which will be made public and it will be done with the utmost respect for data protection”
  • Spain has been one of Europe’s worst-hit countries by the pandemic

MADRID: Spain will set up a registry of people who refuse to be vaccinated against the new coronavirus and share it with other European Union member states, although it will not be made public, Health Minister Salvador Illa said Monday.
During an interview with La Sexta television, Illa reiterated that vaccination against the virus — which as in most EU nations began in Spain over the weekend — would not be mandatory.

“What will be done is a registry, which will be shared with our European partners… of those people who have been offered it and have simply rejected it,” he said. Read More
