He has been increasingly negative on the government comparing U.S. to Sweden. If you heard him in the past you know what he is talking about. the system is failing and he's calling everyone out.

Thomas Jefferson once said, "The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground."

Well, I guess he called that one.

Perhaps CNBC knowing he was going to be critical, spiked his breakfast. Making him look the fool.

if Mr. Mackey has a job come Tuesday next week. His employer, (CNBC) does not look favorably on their shills to come off the spool like this.

He woke up. It's a lot of knowledge in a short amount of time and he can't organize it quick enough to respond coherently. It'll come to him but hopefully he won't destroy his career before figuring it out.

Once you see the light you can't go back to the darkness and shadows of the cave.

it seems to me that he knows the truth- that NOTHING has bottomed out, that unemployment will continue to rise and that inflation is about to overtake the world. he knows the market is close to crash and the the demise of the dollar is 2 months away and he simply refuses to play their games anymore as he knows that there are too many who also KNOW!!!!!!. he is done- D_U_N!!

I provide customer service for "internal customers".
After I fix something for them. They always ask "what was wrong".
I avoid the shop talk, and use analogies.
Sometimes they go over like a lead balloon (nice analogy?)

But sometimes I feel like I'm dying onstage, and I'll get a little self-conscious. Then it's downhill from there,

How many analogies in my post? LOL

Jeff Macke earlier that day probably realized that Peter Schiff was right.

.

always out of context, confusing analogies, etc...

Hahaha..

That "talk to you like a 2 year old, nod your head" thing is something they've all talked about OFF camera and this guy had tried to get answers and couldn't, which really is an nswer, just not one any of us want to hear. He looks like he's wiggin out and trying to provoke someone to start saying some truth.... we're all screwed and maybe, just mabe he is trying to process it. I don't think he's drunk, maybe buzzed slightly.... maybe hoppin mad tho. Interesting video.

Actually Jeff is playing around with comments made on an earlier segment. He knows his sh*t and is probably tired of playing the game.

I think part of the reason he seems crazy is because the clip is out of context, he is mocking the interviewer and he seems legitimately pissed/stunned.

He doesn't look like he's on drugs to me...I think his mannerisms would be much more erratic.

the high test coffee.
Or he has been breathing in
too much chemtrail residue.

Is that a bag of coke in his hand at 57 seconds in? Wow.

"You are a den of Vipers.I intend to rout you out and by the Eternal God I will rout you out."

I have been talking to the car people. It's easy...just go down to the nearest dealer--assuming its doors haven't been shuttered--and see how the cars are selling. The most amazing realization is that prices have NOT fallen. Could this be due to $4 billion GM got from the government (us) yesterday? Probably. It's hardly a crisis if the Treasuries sends you $4 billion. As a matter of fact, that's hardly free enterprise at all! Prices stay high, no one buys, company suffers, gov't sends check, prices stay high, you get the picture...

Then there's BofA, a company which depends on bailouts to make money. These bailouts are in fact the right to borrow from the Federal Reserve at discount rates! That's been going on a long time.

Now Mackey is a flake, but like some commentators say, people do listen to him. His confused commentary hardly sells itself--it's I guess up to us viewers to decipher what he's really saying.

I'm guessing that Mackey's intended comments were somehow subverted, probably by the editors. Anyone who watches CNBC knows its been taken over by market fundamentalists like Larry Kudlow who preach about how the economy's bottomed out, etc.. So the agenda is there--better say we've bottomed or find work outside the mass media.

He says it at around 1:10

That's a dead giveaway that he's on crystal meth. It's so obvious that he's tweaking especially when he uses that term! And look at his erratic facial expressions. This is all classical behavior for people that are tweaking, i.e. been up for days on meth. He says ""But you're kind of tweaked, and you get this joke." In other words, he's so delirious that he thinks the interviewer is on meth too. He's lost touch with reality. I've been around people that are tweaking. This is exactly how they are.

Am I the only one that can't find a link?

It may well be that we are observing him in one of his more lucid and intelligent (for a MSM stooge) moments. There hasn't been the slightest evidence that most lamestream media journalists, editors, or reporters know what is going on even in their own lives, much less on the national or international stages.

what everyone says on tv is a bunch of BS and you might as well talk alien, because they are not trying to fix anything.

Poor Jeff mackey... he was busy doing his homework for the show, wanted to get some hot tips to share, so he calls the car dealers and they have no answers, they don't know anything, so he calles the Bank of America, and they won't talk to him, because no one has any answers. It's all speculation, at least it was.

The other two guys are prepared with their corporate statements, and the thing is, Jeff Mackey is someone who they listen to.. so Mackey is not making sense becasue he's telling the truth... no one is talking. The tips are OVER and OUT.

Jeff Mackey was like the flashing light before the lights go out. I bet thoe other two immediately started making phone calls if they heard him at all.

I sure hope he was looked after.
That looked (and sounded) scary.

Why else would he say "But you're kind of tweaked" ? That came out because he's tweaking. In other words he's been awake for days on crystal meth and is now delirious. Probably hasn't slept in 4 or 5 days.

I read in the Wall Street Journal about brokers doing meth to help their sales ability. It can make you really sociable and a slick salesman unless you overdo it, which this guy has obviously done.

I think he's been "talking to car people". LMAO.

He's just full of adrenalin. That poor man is *savagely* pissed off.

I'm guessing that he's not very articulate on a good day and the stress hormones coursing through his body aren't helping much.

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini.

This guy isn't even really that coherent right now.

At least he's calling the stock market B.S. what it is.

Please help me stop laughing.

wow, he's talking like he's high.

slightly off topic:

I think it is prudent to watch the 10 year yield. The Fed is chasing its own tail right now. As they print money to buy Treasury debt, to drive down government borrowing costs, it increases inflationary expectations. These expectations get built into the treasury rate which pushes the yield UP! That new higher yield causes the Fed to print more money to buy that debt and drive the yield back down but that printing increases inflationary expectations. These expectations get built into the treasury rate which pushes the yield UP! That new higher yield causes the Fed to print even more money to buy that debt and drive the yield back down but that printing increases inflationary expectations. These expectations get built into the treasury rate which pushes the yield UP.....and so on and so on and so on.

I am nodding my head yes.

What was that horrible gold shield thing they passed across the screen every few seconds with the swishing noise. TV is impossible to watch any more. Every guest is rushed through, allowed to say two sentences, nothing makes any sense and the visuals are horrible. Talking on screen, writing below screen. Noises, flashing, makes me nuts and I don't work in it and seldom see it.

I think the frustration from 'secular' traders stems from their naive insistence that they are playing the investing game within a "free market" set of rules. When their predictions fall apart they get extremely frustrated. They refuse to accept that there is no pricing mechanism any more other than by government/Fed decree.

I'm preaching to the choir here but, this is NOT A FREE MARKET ANYMORE. Be very careful about investments. Be nimble and ready to get out of them in 24 hours time. You can take long cartel positions but remember, these politicans and cartels turn on each other at a moments notice. If you try to play the market against the cartels and the politicians you will get burned!

he is gonna get fired lol

It's a very hard thing to break away from the shell games. His brain circuitry is temporarily shorting out as it adjusts to reality.
