The analytical program "However," with Mikhail Leontyev 31 May 2012

38


Theme: "Facebook, as a mirror of the world revolution." The super-expanded social network, the causative agent of the “Arab Spring” and “Moscow Winter”, fails its IPO. Two weeks after being placed on the stock exchange, its shares collapsed by almost a third. All of this against the backdrop of Europe in distress: while Greece is dreary falling out of the eurozone, tilted and scooped Spain. All this, naturally, pulls down oil and, again, our favorite ruble. If anyone noticed.

Against the background of problems encountered by Spanish banks due to falling property prices, the cost of foreign borrowing for Spain is sharply increasing, approaching the critical level - 7 percent. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said that the country will not be able to withstand such high rates for a long time.

Above seven percent - this is considered bankrupt. And, actually, what happened? Burst real estate bubble. The same as in America in 2008. The fact is that the entire current economy is bubbles that burst and are replaced by new ones. So, what's the big deal with Facebook: the most promising bubble could not be inflated - not sulking!

Facebook's annual profit was a billion dollars. However, during the initial placement on the market, the value of the company reached 110 billion. After the collapse of quotations scandal erupted. "Deceived investors" threaten the courts: allegedly Facebook concealed some indicators. And the JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs banks played in the markets against Facebook.

That is, the bad boy played against the king, so it turns out ?! Because the bubble - he is a bubble. A billion-dollar company cannot cost 100 billions. However, until now it was believed that Internet dot-com companies that are expanded to cod are the most promising field for inflating bubbles. Even after the market crash of 2000, when the market for Internet companies almost doubled. And now - on you! Zuckerberg’s coveted bladder turned out to be a one-time condom.

"It turned out that today even stupid speculators are not ready to invest in an incomprehensible way, well, the smart ones simply did not invest. If this bubble existed at least 3 of the month, then one could hope for something from the point of view of the further development of this scheme. reality, it lasted for several hours, and this means that the system of financial market development that had existed for several decades has practically ended, "said Mikhail Khazin, economist and president of the Neocon consulting company.

That is, the process of expanded bubbling - the only way the existence of the current financial system, which its advocates considered eternal, is exhausted. And, by the way, oil is also a bubble. Only much bigger.

      Facebook is not really nothing. This is a service. A service, be it a cook, a prostitute or an internet service, costs money. Not to mention, the corporation's material capital in the form of real estate and equipment.
      Another thing is the importance of the service. It’s hard to live without prostitutes, but you can. Without pants and bread - it is impossible.

      And obviously yes. It cannot cost 100 rubles what the ruble costs. And people perceived it.

        Somewhere about a year ago, information flashed that Microsoft had offered Zuckerberg to buy his facebook for about 17 billions dollars ... What he proudly refused ... Apparently it seemed a little .. After that I got the feeling that this guy is not all right with his head and this Facebook in the future will be covered with a copper basin ... I think 17 billion is it’s quite a sufficient amount, so that you can not realize absolutely any projects, including charitable ones, without gaining brain cancer from overwork at work .... anyway, there’s nowhere to put that kind of money ...

No, I'm not talking about the West that is in Time Square, I'm talking about the west that is next to New Jersey for example. Ask those people. Ask the same people who are completely homeless (and there are 10000 according to the most conservative estimates). We will move from the West to Europe, which does not cease to strike. Spain, Italy, Greece, etc. Or is this all nonsense too? Is rent growth, lowering pensions and retirement age nonsense? (By the way, Russia did not lower the retirement age)

      And at the same time ask the Germans how they live perfectly! Roads have not been repaired for two years - no money! It got to the point that German mayors sell pits on the roads and on the Internet with photos upload the name of the one who bought the pit and whose money they patched it. 1500 children's institutions liquidated - no money. 2782 post offices are liquidated, there is nothing to pay salaries to postmen - no. Pensions were reduced by 40%, pensioners work like dishwashers or taxi drivers - there is no money! Quarter payments and rental housing increased by 100%
      Find out how much an ordinary German receives, how much he spends on housing, food, travel to work and where he dresses and how many times a month - three months

But their time, like shagreen skin, is running out. Their sweet life ends by printing empty pieces of paper, slowly (well, it seems to me that slowly, too slowly), but inevitably. It is interesting to what extent they will reach, in order to delay, push back the inevitable end of this scam, and, therefore, their end? Will they decide on a large-scale war?
      If so, will the "Nuremberg Trial -2" be held in the same Nuremberg or in some other city? The offer is somewhere in Baghdad or Tripoli. It will be symbolic. What method of execution? So is the hanging? Or shooting? Or lifelong?
      There are many questions. Whatever the apologists of the amerskoy regime like Ark or Chukapabra say, the victory will be ours by anyone. I have no doubt about it, not one iota at all! Therefore, Ark and his friends would have been more competent to answer the question of what kind of execution they would prefer for themselves. At least it would be reasonable than to engage in unrealizable fantasy like "new world order" or victory over us .-)))

      We all must understand that a plant that actually produces real products, even if it is inflated like a bubble, will not burst to a complete collapse, unlike the services market.

        10 years have passed (during this period the Soviet Union recovered after the war), not only didn’t get down, but they further aggravated their position, having driven machinery to the end, which is just right to talk about new industrialization. We didn’t even bother to arrange the processing of the same oil, we continue to drive raw. Remember last year’s gas shortage in the Altai and Krasnoyarsk Territories and what price spike it caused

    . Oil is real money, such as food and gold.

      That's right. Oil (well, the one that is black and liquid) is not even a bubble at all. Bubble - the prices for this is the smallest. Moreover, a bubble whose dimensions are completely untied from this very oil. An excellent analogy is shale gas. The jeep itself is decent, compared to the natural one. But what a bubble around him!

        All bubbles are prices for durable goods (stocks of companies, real estate) - they can be inflated based on expectations of future profits or resale with profit in a few years.
        Oil is a perishable commodity that must be paid for storage - it is bought with the intention of immediately selling - in the form of gasoline.
        You can sell gas at higher prices only if the population is ready to pay for it at higher prices - i.e. when the population is full of cheap money.
        If there is no money, they will buy less gas and oil prices will fall.
        Where is the bubble here?

          Just imagine, I have a lot of dough, but I don’t need oil, I buy it in order to sell it in half a year, when, as I expect, it will increase in price. Others, as I think, also do the same, a shortage forms in the market and prices go up. After half a year, when prices have grown, I sell, I bought (unnecessary) oil for me at an increased price, I'm in chocolate. Because on the oil market there is no cheaper, then he likes it or not, but they buy it at this price, because it is really needed, they will not stop buying it.
          Suddenly there is garbage and I urgently need money. I have oil that I do not need, I immediately (without waiting for six months) throw it into the market in order to get at least some kind of money. But garbage, money sharply became necessary for everyone else, and they do the same thing. The price goes down sharply, much faster than it went up, because the money is really needed, so I drop the price, the rest do the same, just to sell. This is the collapse of the oil bubble. But real oil is there and is needed today too, but it is not needed as much as it suddenly became on the market. It can even sink for a while below cost (full w ...). Oil users rejoice (low prices), oil producers are horrified, it wasn’t profitable to extract overnight, and production could not be quickly curtailed (just as you wouldn’t increase), and speculators (like me) also incur losses, because I didn’t get the profit that I wanted to get on the price difference, so I also sell cheaper than I bought.

              Oil itself is not a bubble. The bubble is the hype around hydrocarbons. Because "merchant" Russia (not ordinary people, but those who sit "on the pipe") sell the most expensive hydrocarbons in the world. And if oil is sold at world prices, because it can be bought elsewhere, then gas is highly inflated. Nobody has yet delivered it in such quantity liquefied. That is why Europe does not want to build the South Stream because it will become more addicted to Gazprom and is looking for ways to diversify from Russian gas. Shale gas is not complete well ... This duck was launched by Miller and others like them. Here on the site americans hang out. They will confirm that the US is now becoming an importer from the main exporter of gas, and their price will be 80 bucks per thousand cubic meters. They just do not yet have the ability to liquefy gas in such a volume as Europe needs. Russian capitalists even inflated domestic prices. Was in Venezuela in 2008. There are ridiculous prices for beznin. And in oil Russia prices are the same as in America. Here one Yankee "Russian bottling" in the last topic said that prices in the states are cheaper than in Russia. I don't know if it's true, but in Ukraine, where energy resources are more expensive, prices are also half as much. Not because they are honest. It's just that the purchasing power is lower, but this does mean that you Russians are buying goods with an even greater overpayment than we do. They would receive three times more than in Ukraine. you local zhydy (not a Jew, I'm not an anti-Semite), even more prices would be shown. Look at the prices in Britain and France ...
              NATO does not put pressure on Russia with the fall in oil prices, it is just that the peak of the monopoly of Russian hydrocarbons on the market comes. If more than a quarter of income were not "petrodollars", then there would not have been a fall in the ruble. And so the revenues of the state have decreased, and the salaries of the first people have to be paid. So the Kremlin deliberately lowers the rate.

            Nonsense.
            Large consumers (factories) conclude long-term contracts in advance for many years to come.
            And many oil companies themselves own refineries and sell oil to themselves.
            Some speculators buy oil and immediately sell it (even after half a year), but they do not weather on the market, because they cannot store this oil for a long time - large oil storage tanks are needed for this, and if oil is stored in tankers, they will be idle.
            These speculators earn on a course that they are not setting ... but who? large consumers - sellers of gasoline.
            If there is not enough oil for everyone, the price rises ...
            And about oil speculators, I think, these are all fairy tales - who will let them set such important things as the price of oil.
            But processors don’t get the money - they get it by selling gasoline and in their right mind they won’t sell the oil they bought back - in the worst case scenario, they’ll save gas for cheap ... or they’ll just pause with the purchase of the next batch, they’ll work on stocks - they should all have good stocks.

                Those. the speculator is obliged to sell this document and therefore can not hold it in any way and thereby affect the price of oil.
                How much the speculator bought - the same is obliged to sell - i.e. the total consumption of the speculator does not increase or decrease.
                Therefore, prices are determined by final consumers, and speculators create only temporary fluctuations - ripples on the water.

    Well, oil is not a "bubble" at all - on what, no matter how on it, the entire world economy is supported? And it is not necessary, saying "raw materials economy", to forget that oil production is quite real production. Another thing is that the cost of hydrocarbons may well become the subject of speculative games, both economic and political (which has already happened more than once) - but this is already a matter of "technique" and the ability to resist this. Well, two, three acts of sabotage on pipelines in unstable regions, such as Iraq - and the price will rise for a while, and the "partners" will have less desire to play for a "fall" wassat (almost a joke).

    George Soros believes that Europe has only three months left to save the single currency. This was one of the richest and most influential people in the world said on June 3 at the Festival of Economics in the Italian city of Trento, reports Lenta.ru with reference to MarketWatch. ”Three months later, the markets will get tired of waiting. They will begin to demand more and more, but the authorities will not be able to satisfy their requests, ”said D. Soros.
    In particular, the billionaire believes that the crisis in Greece will culminate in the fall, and that the parliamentary elections in this country (June 17) will be “under the sign of fear of expulsion from the European Union,” and they will most likely be won by political forces ready to fulfill the demands of creditors . According to D. Soros, no matter what government comes to power in Greece, "it will not be able to fulfill these requirements, and in the fall we will be at the culmination of a crisis in this country."
    In addition, D. Soros predicts the weakening of the German economy in the fall "and it will be very difficult for Chancellor Merkel to convince the Germans to take on some other European obligations."
    “The likelihood that the euro will survive is high, because the collapse of the single currency will have negative consequences not only for the peripheral countries of the eurozone, but also for Germany,” he said. Therefore, according to Soros, the German authorities will do everything necessary to save the euro, but nothing more than that.

    While Leontiev balabolit there is a sharp drop in the ruble, which led to a deficit of dollars both in Russian banks and in exchangers. According to the workers of the exchangers, the hype began in the afternoon on Thursday, May 31.

    gatto nero,
    Would you like to say that without the export of hydrocarbons, Russia would cease to be Russia! Either people here can’t sell anything else, or we have so stupid and ignorant people that the whole world can teach them and dictate to them how to behave world space and in a market economy? Believe me, our people have long come to understand that you will not become a great power trading in raw materials! Yes, rich! But for all. Just as much as its reserves and the need for it in the world. And gradually, dependence from hydrocarbons will disappear. And then do not blame me!
    I advise you to go to the site "Made by us" Maybe at least a drop of pride appears for your country. If it is of course yours!

    The West lived beautifully in debt, practically without refusing anything to itself. Sooner or later everything will come to an end and the crisis of 2008 - 2012 is a confirmation of this. Well, well, you have to live within your means, but oh, you don’t feel like it, hence all the recent events (Libya, Syria, Iran). The creation of chaos far from the west extends the existence of a modern world financial system built on fictitious (speculative capital. Unfortunately, Russia is fully integrated into the world system, moreover, in the most unenviable role as a supplier of raw materials and in the inevitable fall in the level of consumption and production in the world, we take the first blow at a relatively low standard of living. And Leontiev is right about oil - it’s also a bubble, and is supported by TNCs to get extra profits. With a decrease in demand, given the high cost of production, Russia will not be able to compete with those the Arabs and TNCs controlling production in the Middle East and Africa. In the short term, the crisis will hit us harder than anyone else.

    From the very first days, however, I look at the first one, even when if anyone remembers the Leontief screensaver, how he sat on a chair and talked about the collapse of the USA and the West, the creation of a multipolar world. I frankly liked his presentation of information, so convincing. But the United States and the West did not collapse, nothing changes as it was, and it has become in its place. What is this propaganda for fools chtoli, wishful thinking?
