Economic data for the session was mixed. On one hand, the August ADP Employment Change indicated that private payrolls fell by 10,000; this is contrary to the increase of 13,000 which was widely expected. This is tempered by an increase in the ISM Manufacturing Index which was 56.3 when a 52.9 was widely expected. Despite mixed numbers, the indexes surged higher with some 98% of S&P 500 stocks positive.

Minutes released from the Federal Reserve’s most recent meeting shows that there is an open debate about its latest step to impact the economy. The move to reinvest the proceeds of maturing mortgages and debt into U.S. Treasury is seen as move to keep money flowing through the economy. Some wondered if such a move would be enough to really help the economy.

Despite the discussion there was an almost unanimous consensus with the lone voice of dissention from Kansas City Fed President Thomas Hoenig who has long said that inflation will start of the supply of money injected into the system isn’t decreased.

Research firm InsiderScore has reported that based on SEC public stock filings, officers and directors of Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Citigroup and Wells Fargo have sold about $100 million worth of stock so far this year. The move was in accordance to strict timing parameters placed on insiders. The move is seen as part of a general trend to diversify stakes in companies which had in the past seen as a great chance for wealth creation and a source of pride.

Chapter 1 (Three Beliefs): Dr. Martenson states his three beliefs: massive change is upon us, that change may overwhelm our ability to respond, and that we do not lack the technology or understanding necessary to build a better future. The next 20 years are not going to be anything like the past 20 years. Chapter 2 (The Three “E”s): Understanding our current situation requires acknowledging that the Economy, Energy, and the Environment are all related; in short, that each “E” influences, and competes for our attention with the others. We have never simultaneously faced these issues at such levels, yet none of them can be solved in isolation. www.chrismartenson.com

Chapter 3 (Exponential Growth): The most important Key Concept of the Crash Course, exponential growth, demonstrates how world population, oil consumption, US money supply, water use, forest loss, species extinction, and fishery exploitation are rapidly reaching their natural limits. The implications for your life are powerful, and demand attention. Chapter 4 (The Power of Compounding): Compounding, the first Key Concept of the Crash Course is explained in this installment. Dr. Martenson draws on a paper by Dr. Albert Bartlett explaining the dangerous implications of steady rates of growth, from oil consumption to population: as Chris says, “With exponential functions, the action only heats up in the last few moments”. www.chrismartenson.com
