As you know folks, theDaily Bell is back, with a new look, but continuing the same analysis of what it calls “dominant social memes”.

MORE ON THAT SHADOW FINANCIAL SYSTEM: THE INDICATORS OF “SUSTAINABILITY”

Here’s something to ponder: The True Size of the Shadow Banking System Now, I know that I’ve blogged about this before, but consider something from this article that is very telling: “The value of the shadow banking system is simply the difference between the value of the largest financial firms and their projected size according […]

CHINESE AGENCY DOWNGRADES US CREDIT RATING

THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO “HMMM…” : DR CRAIG VENTER ON THE 3d PRINTING OF MARTIANS…

This has been a week for “things that make you go ‘hmmm….’”. Once again, so many of you sent me articles on this latest 3d-printing meme that I simply cannot thank all of you individually, but not to comment about it would, again, be a dereliction.
