October Extended Into November
(Conspiracy Nation, 11/02/07) – In an unusual situation, the Daylight Savings Time did not end on the last Sunday of October this year, but was extended into the first Sunday of November. In effect, October has been extended into November.
In “Perfect October Oil And Cash” (http://www.shout.net/~bigred/PerfectOctober.html), Conspiracy Nation had reported Sherman H. Skolnick's observation on how market crashes always happen in October. It seemed we would be safe come November 1st. Yet ominously, yesterday, Thursday, November 1, the “social barometer” Dow fell by 362 points. The “Federal” Reserve yesterday coincidentally “added a total of $41 billion in temporary reserves to the banking system on Thursday, the biggest single day of such injections since September 2001.” (http://www.blacklistednews.com/view.asp?ID=4674)
“Bargain hunters” may arrive on Wall Street today, purchasing stocks now selling at lower prices. If this happens, the Dow will rally and Sports-O-Plenty Saturday will exhibit normal vapidity. But if pessimism accelerates, the Dow and other stock indices might plummet. If so, the Saturday sports broadcasts could be pre-empted. Pre-empting of Saturday sportscasts would be a definite sign that various “crises” are more than blab.
Various reports in Britain's Telegraph newspaper this morning herald financial constriction. Sample quotes:
“The banking sector saw panic selling amid concerns one of the world's largest investment banks, Citigroup, may be forced to slash its dividend to meet its capital ratio requirements.”
“The credit crisis in European financial markets has barely improved at all since it began in August, according to Standard & Poor's.”
“We can now say with certainty that the economy is slowing... Yesterday's fall in equity prices, fuelled by worries about Citigroup's balance sheet, is only the start of the story.”
“The economy is deteriorating faster than the Bank of England would like, economists have warned after new statistics showed the manufacturing sector is stalling and high street sales are slowing.”
October might even extend well beyond the November 4th end of Daylight Savings Time in the U.S. Even the nomenclature, “savings time,” is ominous. Slow-moving Jupiter has been in (economic) expansive Sagittarius. In January 2008, the “King of the Gods” moves into (economic) restrictive Capricorn, ruled by constrictive Saturn.
The report on yesterday's historic “Fed” liquidity injection (cited above) incidentally pinpoints this summer's panic eruption to August 10th. This corroborates previous analysis by Conspiracy Nation, which also nailed-down August 10th as “crunch day.” (“Figuring Out August 10th,” http://www.shout.net/~bigred/Aug10.html)
Does your stomach have that “queasy feeling” due to all the “crises”? A peppermint tea may help. Also, remember to notice the “Saturday Box.” Typically, there are no crises on Saturday. So the situation is better assessed on “Saturn's Day”. Coincidentally, most of the news fakers are at the golf course on Saturdays.
