'This is A Perfect Storm' - EU Leader warns of "Black Swans" Everywhere,
Says 'Propaganda is Our Battlefield'
Friday October 14, 2022 4:15 am
He began by warning that "the world we are facing is a world of radical uncertainty."
The speed and scope of change is exceptional. We should not try to deny it. We should not try to resist it. It would be a futile effort. We have to accept it and to adapt [to] it, prioritising flexibility and resilience.
But uncertainty is the rule. Events that one could imagine that they will never happen, they are happening one after the other.
At this pace, the black swan will be the majority. It will not be white swans – all of them will be black – because one after the other, things have happened that had a very low probability of happening, nevertheless they happened, and they had a strong impact and certainly they happened.
The EC VP then goes on to try and summarize the extent of the European crisis and how they got there, admitting that they were entirely dependent on China (trade), Russia (energy), and US (security)...
I think that we Europeans are facing a situation in which we suffer the consequences of a process that has been lasting for years in which we have decoupled the sources of our prosperity from the sources of our security. This is a sentence to provide the headline, and I am taking that from Olivier Schmitt, who has been developing this thesis – I think - quite well.
Our prosperity has been based on cheap energy coming from Russia.
Russian gas – cheap and supposedly affordable, secure, and stable. It has been proved not [to be] the case.
And the access to the big China market, for exports and imports, for technological transfers, for investments, for having cheap goods.
I think that the Chinese workers with their low salaries have done much better and much more to contain inflation than all the Central Banks together.
So, our prosperity was based on China and Russia – energy and market.
Clearly, today, we have to find new ways for energy from inside the European Union, as much as we can, because we should not change one dependency for another. The best energy is the one that you produce at home. That will produce a strong restructuring of our economy – that is for sure. People are not aware of that but the fact that Russia and China are no longer the ones that [they] were for our economic development will require a strong restructuring of our economy.
The access to China is becoming more and more difficult. The adjustment will be tough, and this will create political problems.
On the other hand, we delegated our security to the United States. While the cooperation with the Biden Administration is excellent, and the transatlantic relationship has never been as good as it is today – [including] our cooperation with the United States and my friend Tony [Anthony] Blinken [US Secretary of State]: we are in a fantastic relationship and cooperating a lot; who knows what will happen two years from now, or even in November?
What would have happened if, instead of [Joe] Biden, it would have been [Donald] Trump or someone like him in the White House? What would have been the answer of the United States to the war in Ukraine? What would have been our answer in a different situation?
But, he admits, that can no longer be the case...
These are some questions that we have to ask ourselves. And the answer for me is clear: we need to shoulder more responsibilities ourselves. We have to take a bigger part of our responsibility in securing security.
You - the United States - take care of our security.
You - China and Russia – provided the basis of our prosperity.
This is a world that is no longer there.
So, we have a difficult cocktail – internal and external – and the old recipes do not work anymore. We have mounting security challenges and our internal cohesion is under threat.
Finally, his solution to all this is simple: more propaganda...
Communication is our battlefield: we fight in communication.
We provide you with materials and I have the feeling that you do not transmit the message strongly enough.
I need my delegations to step up on social media, on TV, in debates.
Retweet our messages, our [European] External Action Service materials. Certainly, my blog, which is the everyday “consigna”...
I need you to be much more engaged in this battle of narratives. It is not something secondary. It is not just winning the wars by sending tanks, missiles, and troops. It is a big battle: who is going to win the spirits and the souls of people?
...
Our fight is to try to explain that democracy, freedom, political freedom is not something that can be exchanged by economic prosperity or social cohesion. Both things have to go together.
Otherwise, our model will perish, will not be able to survive in this world.
So, the EU is planning to jawbone/propagandize its way out of dependence on China for its economic growth (internal cross-border trade?), Russia for cheap energy (by becoming more reliant on US?), and US for security (Macron's European army rejuvenated?).
As Borrell noted at the very start of his speech: this is a perfect storm indeed... and winter is coming.

Charles Hugh Smith - What If Everyone's Wrong? Just Long Enough to Blow
Up Their Account
October 14, 2022
Trying to restore a system that is spiraling away from equilibrium with new extremes of obsolete, misguided policies only accelerates the swings from apparent stability to cascading chaos.
The conventional view of the market is there are two sides to every trade and one is right and the other is wrong. The punters who correctly read the tea leaves and who were right scored gains on their trade and those punters whose forecast was wrong lost their bet.
But what if this market isn't binary, but rather a crushing machine that pulverizes every forecast and position in a disorderly process in which every forecast/position is crushed to rubble and then the market moves on to another forecast and position
in a disorderly process in which every forecast is crushed to rubble and then the
market moves onto another forecast/position and crushes that and so on until
every forecast/position has been pulverized and every once - confident pundit/manager
has seen their core positions blown to pieces.
In other words, what if everyone is right just long enough to become confident in their charts, correlations, research, etc. and wrong just long enough to blow up their accounts?
How could a relatively tame binary market of Bulls and Bears become a monster that chews through everyone's accounts? Here's the dynamic behind such perverse swings and extremes:
As the financial system and global economy veer further away from equilibrium, central banks and governments respond by pushing reactive policies to new extremes. These unprecedented extremes appear to stabilize a tumbling-into-chaos order just long enough to restore everyone's confidence in the system's ability to claw its way back to equilibrium, but this restoration of stability came at a high price: every policy extreme unleashes an equally extreme destabilizing dynamic.
For example, to restore confidence in a failing currency, a central bank jacks up its Treasury yields, pulling in capital attracted by the high yields. But this rapid increase in interest rates spins the domestic economy into a self-reinforcing recession. The central bank panics and slashes yields, which then pushes the currency off a cliff, undermining the domestic economy rather than "saving" it with lower interest rates.
A funny thing happens on the way to re-stabilizing markets with extreme policies: second-order effects, perverse incentives and unintended consequences pile up, destabilizing whatever had just been "saved" by extreme policies.
(First order effects: every action has a consequence. Second order effects: every consequence has its own consequence.)
In this scenario, everyone will be wrong just long enough to blow up their account: everyone forecasting, inflation, deflation, stagflation, super-duper rally, panic-driven crash, dollar collapse, dollar rise, gold-backed yuan, commodity super-cycle, you name it--all of these will look hopeful / look right long enough to sink the hook in true believers, who will then cling to their forecast/position even as the rollercoaster
becomes less predictable and throws more punters off the ride,

Sanctions, Tariff, or Ban? Aluminum Traders brace for Chaos

The Biden administration is eyeing three potential measures after Russia’s strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities this week, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday. Traders are now scrambling to game out the consequences.....
