Dead Cat Bounce; A New Reserve Currency
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

The markets were mixed for most of the week. However on Friday, there was a bit of a surprise rally in equities. Financial Entertainment News thought the pop on Friday was due to this: The University of Michigan’s Surveys of Consumers said consumers expect inflation to rise at a 5.3% annualized rate as of the…

Iran and Israel: Potential For Catastrophic War From The Middle East
 PREVIEW

It seems pretty clear that the drumbeats of war are looming in the Middle East. Strangely, the mainstream media seem to be ignoring it, and the financial markets act unaware. That can only mean one thing. Get ready. For starters, should war break out, it will likely be a major Black Swan event. Obviously, economies and…

Investing in the ‘Age of Consequences’
by Chris Martenson

Economic collapse is now unavoidable. Whether this happens via a deflationary or an inflationary or a stagflationary collapse is an open question, but also academic. In any of these future states, the average person gets economically harmed while the wealthy do relatively better. And by “collapse” I don’t mean “things suddenly go all Mad Max…

Hot CPI print; Unconditional Surrender
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

The big news: on Friday at 8:30 am EST, CPI came in hot: +1.0% m/m, or an incredible +12% if you annualize the number versus last month’s +0.3% m/m. This really moved the markets, some charged higher, others plunged. For the most part, it was a risk-off move. The buck had a huge rally –…

Oil in Storage Drops Again; Rising Disability as a Signal
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

Oil hit a new multi-decade (since 2008) weekly closing high this week, up +4.64 to 118.85. There was talk about OPEC+ pumping more oil to make up for Russia sanctions (now that Russia’s oil is now headed off to China and India), but I guess it wasn’t enough. Prices moved steadily higher. Interestingly, the open…

The Die Has Been Cast (Informed Consent)
 PREVIEW
by Chris Martenson

The question of the age is “is what’s happening right now intentionally being done to us, or is it incompetent oversight?” It’s both, I think, but it’s eerie how closely our demise is tracking the ancient words of Sun Tzu and, more recently, ex-KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov. What we’re facing is an ideological subversion. It…

Europe’s Energy Suicide
by Chris Martenson

European leaders just did something I doubted they would do, which was to immediately ban most imports of Russian oil. Because this is such a self-harming move, I had thought it was a distant possibility. But, here it is. It has happened. First, this will be a lot more problematic than officials are letting on….

After a quick tour of Monkeypox and the chance it came from a lab (nothing definitive, just a few yellow flags to examine), we discuss the devastating inflation now rampaging across Europe The European Central Bank, as led by Christine Lagarde, is perfectly happy to throw more EU citizens under the bus as they continue…

So, the reasonably big market move this week: SPX reversed its 7-week decline, and printed a strong-looking bullish reversal candle, but it was not enough to pull the skeptical forecaster back into an uptrend. The SPX move (+6.58%) came mostly on Thursday and Friday, alongside a bullish sector map (discretionary, energy, financials, and tech led)….

There’s more and more signs that we’ve reached the end of our prosperous period. Energy, food, and water shortages. Hyperinflation. Riots around the world. War…and now a spate of horrific violence (on top of the growing daily violence American cities experience). Fact is, we’re in the Interregnum and we need to talk about what happens…

 Fauci's Private Diary Exposes Stark Contradictions on Lab Leak, Lethality, Lockdowns & Vaccines
Once again I am so grateful and appreciative to Chris (@cmartenson) for sorting through this horrendous Covid deception early on.
This allowed me to avoid the shot myself, self treat with ivermectin, zinc, vitamin-D and quercetin, stop wearing a mask when faced with a COVID positive patient, as well as making post on my facebook ER doctors groups that...
