The $40 TRILLION Derivatives Ticking-Time Bomb (Bigger than Lehman)

In this episode, we look at the gross exposure to derivatives that banks have. Through arbitrage, they are able to expose themselves to positions thousands of times larger than what shows up on balance sheets. Options, futures, and swaps are all cleaner and simpler than the derivatives that banks like Deutsche Bank use. With a $40 trillion dollar book, and only $1 billion in net exposure on balance sheet, banks have created an OTC disaster waiting to happen.

I appreciate your ability to make complicated concepts understandable. No white board necessary.

Joe, that was amazing! The presentation, the editing, the substance, and overall length were perfect! As this crisis deepens you are going to have millions of people searching for information like this on what the heck is going on and how did we get here. The work your putting into this channel will pay off in ways you haven't imagined soon.

After watching only several of your videos, I think I am now hooked by your fantastic insights and knowledge of the Western financial systems. Also, you have this incredible ability to explain in simple terms with all those financial jargons that the average person could easily understands . Thank you so much. Keep up the great work.

Hi Joe I really love your videos.
I have a question over here regarding usury (Interest) which is not only illegal but a grave sin in all major religions.
Now this hybrid bank (Federal Reserve) is not only printing money in thin air but creating debts as you explained and simultaneously a chain of banks creating complex layers of derivatives backed up by what? Perhaps someone’s home?
Using paper money and electronic transactions as a commodity and charging usury (Interest) on that?
Who is the real beneficiary here and who pays the price? Devilish? isn’t it?

[jimjames]

Just awesome. Concise, cogent and potentially highly valuable. Thank you.

I'm just waiting for the lehman headlines

[MegaLangosta]

You guys do know that derivatives are pure funny money. They're literally worth the paper they're printed on. I could take a picture of the Great Pyramids, and with enough certified stamps and information on it, could sell it for any amount.
