Joaquín Guzmán Loera: Cocaine King and Forbes Billionaire

Mexico’s most wanted man, Joaquín Guzmán Loera, is one of 38 new billionaires.
For eight years Joaquín Guzmán Loera reportedly managed his international drug smuggling operation from behind bars while enjoying a lavish prison life with access to booze, women and a home entertainment system. Then in January 2001, facing extradition to the U.S., Guzmán slipped into a laundry cart and escaped.

Since then “El Chapo,” or Shorty, as he is called, has tightened his grip on Mexico’s drug trade as head of the Sinaloa cartel, one of the biggest suppliers of cocaine to the U.S. It is a lucrative business to be in these days. Thirty-five million people in the U.S. use narcotics or abuse prescription drugs, spending more than $64 billion annually. The Drug Enforcement Agency and other industry experts believe Guzmán, 54, has controlled anywhere from a third to half of the wholesale Mexican drug market over the past eight years. In 2008 Mexican and Colombian traffickers laundered between $18 billion and $39 billion in proceeds from wholesale shipments to the U.S., according to the U.S. government. Guzmán and his operation likely grossed 20% of that–enough for him to have pocketed $1 billion over his career and earn a spot on the billionaires list for the first time.

Jeremy Grantham: Reinvesting When Terrified

Jeremy Grantham: Reinvesting When Terrified

Click Here for Stocks for the Long Run

Here is the commentary from Jeremy Grantham of Grantham, Mayo Van Otterloo:

Click Here for the PDF

“There is only one cure for terminal paralysis: you absolutely must have a battle plan for reinvestment and stick to it.”

“Remember that you will never catch the low. Sensible value-based investors will always sell too early in bubbles and buy too early in busts.”

“For the record, we now believe the S&P is worth 900 at fair value or 30% above today’s price. Global equities are even cheaper.”

“Life is simple: if you invest too much too soon you will regret it; “How could you have done this with the economy so bad, the market in free fall, and the history books screaming about overruns?” On the other hand, if you invest too little after talking about handsome potential returns and the market rallies, you deserve to be shot.”

“Perversely, seeking for optimality is a snare and delusion; it will merely serve to increase your paralysis. Investors must respond to rapidly falling prices for events can change fast. In June 1933, long before all the banks had failed or unemployment had peaked, the S&P rallied 105% in 6 months. Similarly, in 1974 it rallied 148% in 5 months in the UK! How would you have felt then with your large and beloved cash reserves? Finally, be aware that the market does not turn when it sees light at the end of the tunnel. It turns when all looks black, but just a subtle shade less black than the day before.”

The way I see it is, if you think the economy is not going to crumble, or trade sideways for the next ten years, now is a decent time to make some moves.

La Santa Muerte: American Teens are Mexican Cartel Hitmen

La Santa Muerte: American Teens are Mexican Cartel Hitmen

Click Here for La Santa Muerte – Saint Death DVD

Rosalio Reta and his friend, Gabriel Cardona, were members of a three-person cell of American teenagers working as cartel hit men in the United States, according to prosecutors. The third was arrested by Mexican authorities and stabbed to death in prison there three days later.

In interviews with CNN, Laredo police detectives and prosecutors told how Cardona and Reta were recruited by the cartel to be assassins after they began hitting the cantinas and clubs just across the border.

Over a nearly one-year period starting in June 2005, the border town of Laredo, Texas, saw a string of seven murders. At first glance, the violence looked like isolated, gangland-style killings. But investigators started suspecting something more sinister.

Prosecutors say they quickly discovered these two teenagers were homegrown assassins, hired to carry out the dirty work of the notorious Gulf Cartel.

“There are sleeper cells in the U.S.,” said Detective Garcia. “They’re here, they’re here in the United States.”

The teenagers lived in several safe houses around Laredo and drove around town in a $70,000 Mercedes-Benz.

As the teens became more immersed in the cartel lifestyle, their appearance changed. Cardona had eyeballs tattooed on his eyelids. Reta’s face became covered in tattoo markings. (Prosecutors say during his trial Reta used make-up to cover the facial markings.) And both sported tattoos of “Santa Muerte,” the Grim Reaper-like pseudo-saint worshipped by drug traffickers.

This phenomenon has been going on in boarder towns, specifically San Diego, for as long as I can remember.
