And now AFP is walking back their comment…

DEUTSCHE BANK SETTLEMENT MAY BE ANNOUNCED COMING DAYS – AFP

We look forward to the 1605ET denial from The DOJ. Once again we remind readers that Monday is a bank holiday in Germany.

For now, the professionals know exactly what is afoot – anything to slow the outflows of cash… and counterparty risk hedges are soaring…

Naturally, Deutsche Bank has refused to comment on speculation around the level of the DoJ fine.

DEUTSCHE BANK DECLINES TO COMMENT ON MEDIA REPORT IT IS CLOSE TO SETTLEMENT WITH DOJ
Which means that should the DOJ make no announcement on Sunday, any buying spree today in DB may promptly turn into another selloff. Making matters worse, with German trading closed for holiday on Monday, only the far more illiquid US tracking stock will be open, which may accentuate any potential selling.

As a reminder, there were “fixes” galore in 2008 and rumors sent Lehman stock soaring over 10% in at least 6 weeks during the last few months..

Now watch the scum order the DOJ to make a statement that they are not reducing their fine so they can take it back down and clean up on the downside too.

Control the information, control the markets….

Seems we have a new addition from the Scum…put out bullshit rumours on Twitter and buy hell out of SM/DB to support rumour….

As for reducing DoJ fine…all that buys is time, DB is finished unless they all take monster pay cuts and work like dogs for 1000 yrs to try and pay off the liabilities and that goes for all the Banksters Co’s.

Talking to a mate who says politically Merkel cannot give DB a Euro cent, or she is finished, so it seems all that is left is non stop intervention, to maintain the illusion. They have totally wrecked it all…I am old enough to remember that if the Bundesbank of yore came out and said we stand behind DB, then the stock would have doubled or trebled from here. Now Buba is just a branch office of the ECB and ECB is a near joke, run by a totally bent Italian in hock to GS.

But the Old Buba would have never allowed DB to get to where it is today.

Now via intervention, they show they will print to infinity and for eternity….

DB now up 13.5%

The boyz can do whatever they want with any of these markets.

No way it goes down before the election

tricks in the Cartel’s arsenal to keep the masses living in the Matrix. They have to keep the game going somehow……

‘It was horrific’: How Zimbabwe’s upheaval pushed this white farming family too far

What’s going on today are market makers crushing the shorts.

OK that sounds reasonable – possible.

This Is The Rumor Causing The Spike In Deutsche Bank Shares

The catalyst for the DB spike is again a rumor.  There has been trader unsubstantiated speculation – launched on Twitter – that the bank may reach a lower RMBS settlement with the U.S. DoJ than feared. As Bloomberg seriously notes: “unverified handles on Twitter speculate the DoJ fine may be $5.4b, vs reports earlier this month the DoJ had sought $14b. Unverified handles including @fiatcurrency, @Fxmacro Tweet or retweet the speculation.”

I agree with you ,my point is if Trump is not allowed to fix our problems NOW ,they will be fixed by someone like Dutarte later !

but they will be fixed !The longer the corruption goes on ,the more violent will be the cure .

New York hedge fund fined $400m for Congo bribes

Hedge fund Och-Ziff has to be cough up $412 million after the US Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission found the New York-based firm violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Two executives, Daniel Och and CFO Joel Frank, also agreed to a financial settlement with founder Och ordered to pay a fine of nearly $2.2 million to settle SEC case.

According to Global Witness, a human rights organization, some of the key violations in the Och-Ziff case came in mining and oil and gas deals in Democratic Republic of Congo:

“In the course of its Congo deals Och-Ziff financed the Israeli billionaire mining and oil magnate Dan Gertler in his acquisition of companies and mining and oil assets. A “significant portion” of the loans paid to Och-Ziff’s “Israeli businessman…partner in DRC” were used “to pay bribes to high-ranking DRC officials to secure mining assets for Och-Ziff and its partner”, according to a document published by the SEC.

Gertler disputes any wrongdoing in his business dealings in Congo. His spokesperson has said prior to the release of the SEC document that the Och-Ziff case has “nothing to do with [Gertler’s] Fleurette”.

I think we’re just going to have to agree to disagree on that one. Duterte makes Trump’s occasional foot in mouth utterance look like a love poem.

maybe making a move in GOLD counter to Brussels…MAYBE they will make a bid for DB wouldent that be a HOOT !

He’s not such a Knucklehead….He’s an example of whats to come if Trump is NOT ELECTED ..better the knucklehead you know than the one you dont know !

Nothing to see here! Move along!

In a sense it looks like they are bailing out DB right now by buying their shares which are now up 7.5%

They can prop the shares up enough through the back door enabling DB to do a rights offering without a formal bailout.

Expect the DOJ here in the US to back off from their $14 billion fine any minute.

Most importantly though – crush pm’s

Philippines President Compares Himself To Hitler, One Week After Telling Brussels “F**k You”

The world’s most entertaining, Tourette syndrome-plagued president, Philippines Rodrigo Duterte has just sparked another scandal.

As a reminder, one week ago, in his latest outburst, Duterte stunned reporters and officials when he responded to Europe’s condemnation of his government’s brutal anti-crime crackdown, when after an EU statement urged Duterte to put an end to the “extrajudicial killings” and launch an alternative campaign in line with international human rights laws, the president did not hold back in his response to Brussels and during a speech said: “I read the condemnation of the EU against me. I will tell them: ‘Fuck you.’ “You’re doing it in atonement for your sins.”

He accused the bloc of hypocrisy, saying a rudimental check of the history books showed European countries had killed thousands of people in the past. “He added: And then the EU has the gall to condemn me. I repeat: “Fuck you.”

Fast forward one week, when Duterte compared himself to Adolf Hitler on Friday, and said he would “be happy” to exterminate three million drug users and peddlers in the country.

In yet another rambling, disjointed speech on his arrival in Davao City after a visit to Vietnam, Duterte told reporters that he had been “portrayed to be a cousin of Hitler” by critics. Explaining that Hitler had murdered millions of Jews, Duterte said: “There are three million drug addicts (in the Philippines). I’d be happy to slaughter them.

“If Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have…,” he said, pausing and pointing to himself. “You know my victims. I would like (them) to be all criminals to finish the problem of my country and save the next generation from perdition.”

So when do we think if the ECB and Fed are gonna bail out DB, do we think that magicking up $ 75 Trillion is money printing !!!!!!!

As for the rumour it is bollocks…the ECB cannot bail DB, they are not allowed to in their charter….ahaa CNBC/Cramer will say they don’t give a damn about that…true…..but Merkel has a bigger problem…if DB is bailed then all of the Greek., Italian….Spanish etc Banks will be bailed and until now she/Germany has been adamant that u can’t bail ur banks….so big time dilemma.

Buygold…so glad Cramer is happy…makes me feel warm all over !!!!!!

These crooks have so many tricks up their sleeves.
