Contagion!
Contagion! There has been a litany of bad news recently, including the U.S. August humiliation in Afghanistan, China’s aggressive actions against Taiwan and increased tensions with Iran, North Korea and Russia. It will take the U.S. years, possibly decades, to recover from the debacle of August 2021 and the collapse of American prestige. All of […]
The Perfect Storm Is Bearing Down
The Perfect Storm Is Bearing Down Time, the saying goes, is nature’s way of making sure that everything doesn’t happen at once. So now, maybe, we’re at the event horizon where nature is suspended because everything seems to be happening at once. The weeks ahead could determine whether we are a coherent society that can […]
A Global Liquidity Crisis Is Underway
A Global Liquidity Crisis Is Underway I’ve been analyzing currency wars for years. In fact, I’ve written a book called Currency Wars, so I have some expertise in the subject. A new front in the currency wars is emerging, but it has not yet erupted into blatant currency manipulation. That will probably come in early 2022. […]
Crisis, Crash, Collapse
Crisis, Crash, Collapse We have a fine-sounding word for running with the herd: momentum. When the herd is running, those who buy what the herd is buying and sell what the herd is selling are trading momentum, which sounds so much more professional and high-brow than the noisy, dusty image of large mammals (and their […]
COVID and the Noble Lie
COVID and the Noble Lie “Unethical”… “dystopian”… “totalitarian”… These are the words of the British government’s primary scientific advisory bunch — the Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Behaviour, by title. These scientific advisors presently droop their heads in shame. For these are the very words they employ to describe their own conduct. They concede: Last […]
The Most Powerful Force on Earth
The Most Powerful Force on Earth “If a writer is so cautious that he never writes anything that cannot be criticized, he will never write anything that can be read. If you want to help other people you have got to make up your mind to write things that some men will condemn.” —Thomas Merton The […]
War on Cash: The Next Phase
War on Cash: The Next Phase With so much news about an economic reopening, a border crisis, massive government spending and exploding deficits, it’s easy to overlook the ongoing war on cash. That’s a mistake because it has serious implications not only for your money, but for your privacy and personal freedom, as you’ll see […]
Wrong… Again
Wrong… Again The Federal Reserve met last week and voted to keep interest rates unchanged. What a shock! The Fed also gave an upbeat forecast of economic growth, predicting that the U.S. economy will grow 6.5% this year, its highest rate in nearly 40 years. Its December 2020 forecast projected 4.2% growth. The Fed also […]
Financial Warfare Is Real
Financial Warfare Is Real In my 2011 book, Currency Wars, I gave a detailed description of the first-ever financial war game sponsored by the Department of Defense. This financial war game took place in 2009 at the top-secret Applied Physics Laboratory located about twenty miles north of Washington, D.C., in the Maryland countryside. Unlike typical war […]
The Arctic Is Melting
The Arctic Is Melting EARTH is down with a fever. Even the polar ice has vanished. Reports The Washington Post: The Arctic seems to be warming up. Reports all point to a radical change in climatic conditions, and hitherto unheard-of high temperatures in that part of the earth’s surface. Expeditions have sailed as far as 81 degrees […]
The Fed Wrecked the World’s Most Important Market
The Fed Wrecked the World’s Most Important Market Do you wish to know where the economy is heading? The bond market holds the answer, say the veterans. The birds of the moment, the flighty birds, flock to the stock market. But the owls nest in the bond market. The owls are the wiseacres. The Federal Reserve’s […]
The “COVID Coup”
The “COVID Coup” What we are experiencing is a COVID coup. While Joe Biden (apparently) won the election, the entire process was dominated by COVID precautions and distortions. Nearly 80% of Joe Biden’s vote — according to the exit polls — named COVID as the key issue. A similar 80% of Trump’s vote saw the […]
The Bogus Case Against Gold
The Bogus Case Against Gold Gold is in the early stages of its third great bull run that will take it to record heights. The first two great bull markets were 1971-1980 (gold up 2,200%) and 1999-2011 (gold up 760%). After peaking in 2011, gold fell sharply from that peak to below $1,100 per ounce […]
Civil War Two
Civil War Two America has a new manufactured crisis, ElectionGate, as if all the other troubles piling up like tropical depressions marching across the September seas were not enough. America needs a constitutional crisis like a hole in the head, and that’s exactly what’s being engineered for the holiday season by the clever folks in […]
Negative Interest Rates Have Arrived
Negative Interest Rates Have Arrived We are often warned that negative interest rates are an approaching menace — not an immediate menace. Yet are negative rates already reality in the United States? Has the unholy day already arrived? Today we don the sleuth’s cap, step into our gumshoes… and unearth evidence that negative interest rates […]
