Preparedness Basics for the Elderly or Disabled
 PREVIEW
by Samantha Biggers

More people than ever are living alone or with another older person. If you are older or disabled and live independently, you can do plenty of things to make it through short to moderately long emergencies. If you have an elderly relative living independently, you can help them organize and prepare using this article’s guidance….

There were two economic reports this week: Nonfarm Payrolls: +223k month over month (m/m) [prior +256k] (bullish) Durable Goods: New Orders -2.13% m/m, Shipments +0.19% m/m (bearish) My favorite section of payrolls that I use for detecting recession isn’t showing a clear signal of recession just yet; the FRED Series (LNS12032196) titled “working part-time for…

The Curse of Seeing Things Clearly (and Caring)
 PREVIEW

Sentinel intelligence is the ability (some say superpower) to detect large threats early. We’ve got that in spades here at Peak Prosperity. It is usually a curse because, as with the myth of Cassandra, people “blessed” with Sentinel Intelligence are destined to be ignored by most people while also being burdened with the trait of…

China Shows More Signs of War Mobilization
by Chris Martenson

A quick update on the China War Thesis released less than a week ago. China’s military sent 71 planes and seven ships toward Taiwan in a 24-hour display of force directed at the self-ruled island, Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said Monday, after China expressed anger at Taiwan-related provisions in a U.S. annual defense spending bill. China’s…

Mining, Crude and The Vaccine Bubble
 PREVIEW

In contrast to gold’s mostly-sideways move, the miners rallied strongly on the week, up 3.67%.  Silver also did well, climbing +2.67%, making a new closing high. Ratios: GDX:gold +0.72% (bullish), GDXJ:GDX +1.54% (bullish), Gold:Silver ratio -2.64% (bullish). Even though gold barely moved, this was a bullish week overall for PM. I especially like how the…

So, EU leaders decided to forcibly cap the price of Russian-supplied natural gas. How’s that going to work out for the Europeans this winter and over the next few years?

2022 The Year in Review: The War in Ukraine
by David Collum

Annually, friend-of-the-site David Collum writes a detailed “Year in Review” synopsis full of keen perspective and plenty of wit. He strikes again in his usually poignant and delightfully acerbic way. As with past years, he selected Peak Prosperity as the site where it is published in full. It is longer than our usual posts, but…

Fifth Generation Warfare (5GW) is where state actors use all of their exceptionally potent tools of persuasion to control the narrative and install new cognitive biases by hacking our wiring and leveraging our pre-existing beliefs, biases and judgments.  Sound like some dystopian SciFi movie?  It does, but it’s also the current reality. Welcome to the…

The Signs Say “Yes”
by Chris Martenson

China’s statements and actions are consistent with a nation preparing for war. Or, at least an intelligent nation, unlike the EU which poked, prodded and finally got a war on with Russia, but failed to prepare meaningfully, or at all, beforehand. You know what? I am so used to defective leadership that it now seems…

 Prep Now for the Coming Winter Challenges

I love the considerations that the article had above and thought I would add a few things that I have considered for our situation. My...
