FBI releases classified documents from 2018 Horizon Air plane theft, crash

The Federal Bureau of Investigations has released more than 500 pages of previously classified documents about the investigation of a Horizon Airlines plane stolen from Sea-Tac Airport and crashed on Ketron Island in 2018 by a ground services worker.

One new piece of information that was released surrounded what was in a spiral notebook of 29-year-old Richard “Beeboo” Russell, who stole and flew an empty Horizon Air Bombardier Q400. The FBI noted that Russell wrote about then-President Donald Trump and the effects his immigration policies were having. He wrote he had the desire to do something that would benefit all mankind. Investigators said Russell worked alone when he was working as a ground service agent for the airline, and that he towed the turboprop out a hanger, climbed into the cockpit, and took off.

The flight data indicates Russell, who was never trained as a pilot, was in full control of the plane until his final descent, when he crashed into Ketron Island and killed himself.

Russell was a ground agent who had limited access to planes and towing equipment.

I play some video games....gimme the coordinates to that orca I wanna talk to THAT guy?

Authorities said they saw no apparent security violations before he stole the plane, but Russell had been drinking a lot, resulting in his friends and family trying an intervention, of which they indicated he seemed fine afterward. Days after the crash, one of Russells’ coworkers told KIRO 7 that they both had issues with being overworked and underpaid at Horizon Air, and he apparently learned to fly the plane from video games, but he did not know how to land it.

Authorities Seize $13 Billion From Abramovich Associates In "Largest Asset Freeze In UK History"

Update (1400ET): UK authorities are aggressively pursuing assets belonging to Roman Abramovich to such an intense degree that they have even decided to freeze £10 billion ($13.1 billion) of his assets.

Here's the FT with more: The UK is to freeze an estimated £10bn of assets held by two longstanding business associates of Roman Abramovich, the Russian oligarch best known for his ownership of Chelsea Football Club. The sanctions on Eugene Tenenbaum and David Davidovich bring the total number of oligarchs, family members and associates with ties to Russia on the UK list to 106, the government said on Thursday. According to the government, corporate filings show that Tenenbaum, a director at Chelsea, took control of Ervington Investments, an Abramovich-linked investment vehicle, on February 24, the day Vladimir Putin sent troops into Ukraine.

UK foreign secretary Liz Truss called the move the "largest asset freeze action in UK history."

Polish president: Russian invasion of Ukraine is ‘terrorism'

Polish President Andrzej Duda said Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is “terrorism,” adding that those who committed war crimes in the country must be punished.

Duda made the remarks during a news conference on Wednesday, when he and leaders of the Baltic states — Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania — met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the country’s capital of Kyiv. “It’s not war, it’s terrorism when soldiers are sent to murder civilians,” Duda said at the news conference. “It is a face of war that we are not able [to] and cannot accept.”

Duda also said at the news conference that Russia must be held accountable for the crimes they are committing in the region, CNN reported.

“The perpetrators of these crimes, both direct and indirect, must be punished. Prosecutors collect evidence in places where mass murders took place. It is inconceivable that such things should happen in the modern world,” Duda said at the news conference.

Skittish Stock Traders Are Bracing for $2 Trillion Option Expiration

Inflation is surging, central banks are on the move and now it’s earnings season. To top it all off, stock traders face the market-roiling potential of a monthly options expiration estimated at more than $2 trillion. Roughly $495 billion in single-stock derivatives are set to expire Thursday, with another $980 billion of S&P 500-linked contracts and $170 billion in options tied to the State Street fund tracking the S&P 500 all running out as the holiday-shortened week ends, according to estimates from Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s Rocky Fishman. Such volumes have been a source of volatility in the past year.

NASDAQ having some reeeally big exits that have screwed it all day can see them on the left side of cap#2 but as if by another "magicians act" showing up there was a YUGE buy at 12:56pm EST of 2.25B-and everything on the NAS turned at the same time-TSLA too. The earlier stuff is still likely Softbank cause they don't care they just "dump"-in a world of hurt for cash right now. Looks like another exit on the NAS of 2.84B at 2:30pmEST-taking advantage of the "help" at 12:56pm EST and that "help" was it the LOD before that last chunk showed up. TSLA dumping and since that is the biggest exposure of the hopium "expert" Cathie Wood's ARKK fund she is having a bad time with that-betcha she doubles down again and some story will come out later about her BTFD.

DOW has bounced off the neckline (previous days close) twice so up it went after that and then down into the close.

Goldman's "results" are all about fixed income-feeding at the reverse repo teet imo- >>133213 Shitibank pretty much the same but 'up' they go-the only outlier is WFC and JP Morgan who is still down today-but some appear to be "nibbling" on it intra-day see below with regards to share price. So as mentioned last week the crowded trade is to short the banks and the only reason that XLF (Bank ETF) has not shit the bed is that it's largest component (%-wise) is Berkshire Hathaway at about just under 13% and next is JP Morgan at 11.47%-so "uncle Warren" is not really a bank but it is the largest position in the "Big Bank Index"....

see ZH cap #4 for todays bond complex action

Treasuries ohhh muh Treasuries...yields back up again(after two days of dropping) because of muh "aggressive Fed hikes" bullshit again-we already know they don't set rates the bond markets does so this is even wayyy moar tired than Putinflation. Also the aforementioned OpEx gong on today....who dafuq noes at this point but most of this shit ain't real to begin with as you only really see about 10% of everything done on a daily basis rfleceted in muh "markets"..it does not reflect the trillions of transactions in darkpools or 'off book' deals/swaps. New York Fed President John Williams said on Thursday that the U.S. Federal Reserve should reasonably consider raising interest rates by a half percentage point at its next meeting in May, which was seen as a further sign that even more cautious policymakers are on board with bigger rate hikes . This was after the ECB said it plans to cut bond purchases - known as quantitative easing - this quarter, then end them at some point in the third quarter-again lotsa luck with the non-maturing ones-who gonna buy those...youmight wanna ask the Bank of Canada, Japan and our own FRB.

C Profit sank 46% from a year earlier to $4.3 billion-cause that is always 'good' news and the same shit they all do-shitibank "set aside $1.9 billion to shield itself from potential losses stemming from its exposure to Russia" to be reapplied to muh bottom line in Q2. Morgan Stanley same as Goldman...all fixed-income. MS said investment banking revenues fell 37% year-on-year and as a reminder "repurchased $2.9 billion of its outstanding common stock under its share repurchase program, and announced a $0.70 quarterly dividend". So essentially creating EPS by "magic" and buying back almost $3B in own stock....ree-dick-u-lous. Wells Fartgo also "beat"-Net interest income at the bank increased 5% in the first quarter due to lower mortgage-backed securities premium amortization, a decrease in long-term debt, and higher loan balances.

Noninterest income, however, fell 14%, driven by lower mortgage banking income, the bank said. But then the usual "magic" here as well "The bank repurchased 110.1 million shares, of $6 billion, of common stock in the first quarter." An the only equity shitting the bed is Wells Fartgo on well above average volume too.

Oil up on muh russian oil embargo-so much for muh SPR releases....kek-see cap #3 previous post

They do that and oil will skyrocket (especially Brent)-put on a full embargo-but all this does it make it "sweeter" fro Armaco IPO coming soon. So they are going to "table it" until after the April 24th election in France (Merde Boi vs Le Pen). Don't wanna piss of those voters now would ya Merde Boi?

The Fed Just Disengaged Its Volatility Suppression Machine

see cap #1 this post

The Fed minutes released last week revealed the central bank intends to start reducing its balance sheet by as much as $95 billion per month beginning in May. Investors ought to pay very close attention to this development because, for a very long time now, the Fed has effectively used its asset purchase program to suppress volatility across a variety of markets including the equity market.

Mortgage rates top 5% for first time in a decade

Long-term U.S. mortgage rates continued to climb this week as the key 30-year loan rate reached 5% for the first time in more than a decade amid persistent high inflation. The average 5% rate on the 30-year mortgage was up from 4.72% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported Thursday. The average rates in recent months have been showing the fastest pace of increases since 1994. By contrast, a year ago the 30-year rate stood at 3.04%.

Fired Goldman Trader Loses Bid to Revive Claim Against Bank

A former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. managing director failed to convince a court to revive his claim that he was illegally fired for blowing the whistle on compliance lapses at the bank. Christopher Rollins sued Goldman in 2018, but the case was sent to arbitration. A Financial Industry Regulatory Authority panel dismissed his claims last year, and a federal judge in New York on Thursday rejected Rollins’s attempt to overturn the arbitral decision.

Rollins claimed he was terminated for highlighting the bank’s dealings with controversial German financier Lars Windhorst and its failure to comply with anti-money-laundering laws. According to Rollins, he was made a scapegoat after transactions with Windhorst raised questions, even though the client relationship had been cultivated by more senior Goldman managers.

In seeking to vacate the March 2021 arbitral award, which also required him to pay $8,887.50 in fees, Rollins argued to U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos that he had been denied access to evidence, including compliance records showing that Windhorst was on a restricted list. But Ramos found that Goldman produced tens of thousands of pages of documents in the case and noted that Rollins conceded that he had received a fair hearing. The parties also introduced “ample evidence” about Goldman’s decision to terminate him including more than 100 exhibits and Rollins called 11 witnesses, the judge said.

Suspicious Activity Reports: OCC Authority for Exemptions to Suspicious Activity Report Requirements: Final Rule

On March 16, 2022, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) issued a final rule amending the OCC's suspicious activity report (SAR) regulations. This rule allows the OCC to issue exemptions from the requirements of those regulations based on a request from a bank1 subject to those regulations that meets the criteria specified in the final rule. The final rule adopts, with changes in response to comments, the proposed rule published in the Federal Register on January 22, 2021.

*harmonizes the OCC's legal authority to issue exemptions from its SAR regulations with preexisting exemptive authority of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (FinCEN).

*establishes processes for the OCC to facilitate changes related to SAR regulations required by the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020.

*establishes processes for the OCC to grant relief to banks that develop innovative solutions intended to meet Bank Secrecy Act requirements more efficiently and effectively.

*does not, by itself, result in any exemptions from SAR requirements. The final rule only clarifies the OCC's legal authority to issue such exemptions in the future.

When issuing any exemptions, the OCC expects to coordinate with FinCEN and the other federal banking agencies. For exemption requests from the OCC's SAR regulations that would also require an exemption from FinCEN's SAR regulation, a bank would need to seek an exemption from both the OCC and FinCEN.

Issued by Benjamin W. McDonough Senior Deputy Comptroller and Chief Counsel

Since all four of the 'new' appointees are swamp creatures-one from JP Morgan and was a Vice President and Asst.General Counsel, another from Shitibank and Head of Global Regulatory Affairs, another was a Hussein Admin appointee for SIGTARP-Special Inspector General for the TARP programs-that did jack shit like the two others in their positions. The last one was an assistant to the recently departed only other "regulator" at the CFTC prior to these four being named and worked for Senator John Thune for 15 years and has ZERO experience and no bidness being in this position. At least the other three are known criminals that assisted in the cover up of all the malfeasance going on within JP Morgan Shitibank and the SIGTARP program

See here: The Office of the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP) is a federal law enforcement agency and an independent audit watchdog that targets financial institution crime and other fraud, waste, and abuse related to TARP.

What we've got with today's "news" above is the fuggen O.C.C. who require the COMEX participants (regulated by the CFTC and housed at the CME group in Chicago) to compile the data used by the O.C.C. for the Qtrly derivatives report telling everyone that when Bank of America blows up they will give them an 'exemption' or anyone else involved in this fiasco allowed to continue.

They will do that or have to declare 'Force Majeure' and if they do that they will just start over with this bullshit again and then EVERYONE will get an "exemption"
