My son, JR, has filled in for me on a few Money and Markets TV episodes. He is also co-editor of my World Currency Trader service. Today he has some interesting insights regarding the U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls report, which came out last Friday. And I think you’ll benefit by reading them. — Jack

The decrease in December’s unemployment was better than expected. And in the past, such drops became the fuel behind risk-appetite rallies.

For example, here is a chart below showing how the S&P 500 began rising in the mid-70s when unemployment fell before eventually spiking again to more than 10 percent:

Assuming today’s investors are as optimistic about the unemployment figures as they were back then, we could see a similar reaction from U.S. stocks. Ditto o

As the world economic unrest is largely expected to continue into 2012, there’s little room for the average Russian to save.

Data from the Federal State Statistical Service (Rosstat) says that the real disposable income of people in Russia stands at about 21,000 roubles, where almost a half of that is spent on food. And research from Russia’s National Agency for Financial Studies (NAFS) shows that more than a half of Russians don’t put any money aside at all.

Deeper into Deposits

Deposits and cash remain the most popular saving tools, seen as the most reliable “Grandma recipe,” says Guzelia Imaeva, a head of NAFS. For an average Russian, unwilling to take a risk with their pint-sized savings, it would be better to deposit the money and relax, says Natalia Smirnova, general director at Personal Advisor Financial Planning Association.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned about central banks in the past few years, it’s that they will print money — and then print some more — as long as they can get away with it. Never mind that all it accomplishes is asset price inflation (including commodities!!). And doesn’t do anything to help the real economy, while impoverishing savers.

The U.S. Federal Reserve, under the leadership of Chairman Ben Bernanke, launched the first round of “quantitative easing” (QE1) in 2008. It totaled $1.7 trillion. QE2 was $600 billion. And any QE3 program could add hundreds of billions of dollars more to the fiat money system.

The Bank of England (BOE) is pursuing the same crazy, misguided strategy. It spent 200 billion pounds ($313 billion) as part of its own QE1 program. And it just lau

Unrest in European financial markets cut the net results of Russian banks in 3Q 2011. However, domestic players point to better market conditions in Russia, as both loans and deposits go up, providing for growth in the bottom line during 9M 2011.

Among Russian banks reporting this week were a country’s largest Sberbank, Nomos Bank and Bank St. Petersburg. All of them posted a year on year increase in net profits, saying revenues from their core operations were the main drivers.

Reporting on Friday, Bank St. Petersburg, which is the second tier of Russian banks, said it boosted net profit 145% year on year in January – September 2011 to 5.6 billion roubles, while the 3Q bottom line went down 2.6% year on year to to 1.1 billion roubles, which is in fact a bigger drop in quarter on quarter terms, down 52.5% from the 2Q 2011 figure.

Europe is at the heart of the current credit crisis. Developments in Italy, Greece, and the rest of the PIIGS countries are driving the action in virtually every market around the world — from stocks to bonds to currencies.

So the four-day trip I just took to Germany couldn’t have been better timed!

I had the privilege of sharing my views on the global economy and global markets before a couple hundred people from the Munich area and around Germany last Friday. And over the weekend, I spent quite a bit of time talking about the latest European developments with colleagues and average citizens.

What did I learn? What kind of boots-on-the-ground intelligence can I share? Let’s get to it …

Bailouts Wildly Unpopular in the Country That Has to Finance Them!

Forget the empty promises of politicians, or the happy talk coming out of all these European meetings and pow-wows you hear about. The eve
