Buckle Up: Tonight Could get Wild

GPDR Privacy Policy Addendum:

Our plugins and add-ons are compatible with GDPR. Below are the common questions related to GDPR.
Do your plugins track any data? We do not track any user data via our plugins. But if our plugin depends on any third party service, they might track user data. This can happen in following two ways:
1. Embedded Widgets
Some of our plugins have features to integrate embedded widgets as is, from third party services (like Facebook Like, Facebook Recommend, Twitter Tweet official buttons).
2. Third-party APIs/Connections
Our plugins send request to third party APIs via website-visitor’s web browser to fetch information (like social shares, social comment count). This request made by web browser may include IP address, which can then be seen by the third-party that it’s being requested from. This API request doesn’t include any personal data of the website user other than the IP address.
Where is the data collected by your plugins stored?
We do not store any data fetched by our plugins on our servers, neither we share that data with any third party. O
Do your plugins load any external scripts?
As mentioned before, our plugins run absolutely from your website and hence load the scripts too from your website with exception of third-party embedded widgets (like Facebook Like/Recommend official button, Twitter tweet official button, Facebook Comments) which require our plugin to load scripts from the servers of relevant service.

I’m not saying things are happening, but, things are happening.

Okay, maybe not yet, but I won’t dismiss it out of hand yet.

The reality is that things are getting nuts after a horrid CPI report which all being blamed on one little guy by all the talking heads on the bubblevisions.

Poor little lizard.

Tonight the consequences of massive moves in US Treasury yields and the US dollar are coming home to roost. Right on the head of the Bank of Japan who is now in deep sushi after the Dollar/Yen jumped up over 153 just a little while ago:

A break of 160 resets everything in commodity, bond, and equity markets on a global scale because the Bank of Japan, ECB, etc. will all have to engage in a massive intervention and that is never a good thing for free markets. 1986 was a good year, but the years where the Yen traded above 200 were so to say, not so hot for the United States as the inflation of the 1970’s was brutal.

As if that was not enough fun for tonight, here’s this “sudden” news tidbit out of the fun loving mullahs in Iran.
