Financial information is as leaky as a busted pipe: when it blows, the leaks pour out before you'd expect it. Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen, has been nailed for leaking confidential information when she was a regular member of the Fed. Timothy Geitner, tax cheating Timmy, was also been nailed for leaking confidential information when he was the former Treasury Secretary.
Have either been prosecuted? Wait.. was that a joke? They're ABOVE the law right? Yes, correct – banksters and their cronies that supply "informed" information are above the law.
Well folks, that hasn't ended.
The following leak will neither be questioned, nor prosecuted. Today's FOMC Minutes data were released by Bloomberg 30-min before it was supposed to be released. The following should have hit the wires at 14:00pm ET. Oops!

13:42 08/19 FOMC MINUTES: NO TIP TOWARDS SEPT LIFTOFF, DOESN'T RULE IT OUT
As you can see, all of the prior headlines hit the tape WELL BEFORE the 2pm ET time zone, when the so-called embargo time was supposed to end. And that is just more farcical nonsense in a globally rigged market.
Trade well and follow the trend, not the perma-bull OR perma-bear "experts."
Behold the age of infinite moral hazard! On April 2nd, 2009 CONgress forced FASB to suspend rule 157 in favor of deceitful accounting for the TBTF banking mafia.
It was an extremely volatile session both before and after the FOMC announcement yesterday. The DJI had multiple 100+ point swings throughout the session.
