A Perfect Storm Is Brewing<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n

\"\"<\/a>Will we someday look back on October 2018 as the turning point?\u00a0 As the month began, people were generally feeling pretty good about things, and the U.S. stock market quickly set a new all-time high.\u00a0 But from that point on, the wheels fell off for Wall Street.\u00a0 We just witnessed the worst October for U.S. stocks since the financial crisis of 2008, and at this point more than 8 trillion dollars of global wealth has been completely wiped out<\/a>.\u00a0 But it isn\u2019t just the stock market that is being shaken.\u00a0 The horrific violence in Pittsburgh is just the latest in a string of events that have rattled the entire nation.\u00a0 Sometimes I feel like I am literally watching the fabric of our society come apart right in front of my eyes.\u00a0 It is almost as if there is a tangible presence of evil in the air, and it seems to be getting stronger over time.\u00a0 For quite a while I have been warning that levels of anger and frustration are rising to unprecedented levels, and all of that anger and frustration is leading people to do things that are absolutely unthinkable.\u00a0 And if people are this crazed now, how bad are things going to get once the economy really starts unraveling?<\/p>\n

Let there be no doubt \u2013 if U.S. stocks crash really hard, it will cause a massive credit crunch, and that would absolutely strangle economic activity.<\/p>\n

Yes, October was bad, but we can recover from what happened in October.<\/p>\n

But if November and December are equally as bad or worse, we could have a nightmarish crisis on our hands very rapidly.\u00a0 And many experts believe that this market is ultimately going to decline much, much further.<\/p>\n

For example, just consider what Wolf Richter is saying<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n
