Friday’s Stock Bounce, the Dollar Dives, and Gold’s New High
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

On Friday, we finally got our SPX bounce. Do we buy the dips, or sell the rallies? It depends on what we think the longer trend might be. “Doctor Copper” is not yet hinting at a recession – then again, these clues from Doctor Copper (according to the “2008 case study” #2) can take several…

More Of Everything: Recession Signals, European War Drumming, and Volatility
 PREVIEW

The US recession appears to be gathering steam – each week, the Atlanta Fed’s GDPNOW forecasting tool is looking more unhappy.  For sure, “they” want to focus on the upcoming Trump-cession – just yesterday, I saw the first Nudge Google article on point.  (…) The increasing likelihood of the US leaving NATO really is revolutionary. …

When Corruption Is the Path
by Chris Martenson

When plunder becomes a way of life, and when Control Fraud dominates, there’s really no reform possible. You just have to start over. I think this is where we’re headed, and it’s going to be really bumpy along the way.

In terms of market moves, adding it all up: metals (risk-off), energy (mostly recessionary), treasury bonds (risk-off), crappy debt (risk on), equities (risk-off), and blessed bitcoin (risk-off) = seems like risk off to me. Consumer Economy Personal Income (PI); 25.346T +221.9B, (+0.88% m/m) 2024-Q4 GDP (GDP); 29.720T +344.7B (+1.16% q/q) Fed GDP Prediction (GDPNOW); -1.48%…

Home Sales Sinking, DOGE Plows On, and Gold’s Powerful Moves
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

At first, I thought the panic rush of gold into the US had to do with “something in Europe” – money fleeing for some reason, like war.  Now, given the audit of Fort Knox coming up, I’m thinking maybe there’s another factor.  (…) I’m still waiting for the “recession” impulse to appear in earnest.   One…

Of course, next week Trump et al might take a peek inside Fort Knox and find it empty, they might audit the Fed and expose 100 years of corruption, they might even decide to gold-back the Dollar.  They could do some or all of this next week!   And the COMEX might default!  The Fed might…

What will Ed Dowd’s upcoming deflationary event do to the prices of everything?  Do we really think silver will continue moving higher if everything else drops in price?  My position hasn’t changed – I’m 50% in cash.  I’m looking to buy the sale, so I’m definitely talking my position – this is not financial advice. …

I believe there’s a linkage between the “doom-loop” and the failure to deliver of gold at LBMA and the large deliveries at the COMEX. We may be nearing an event.   At this moment, it feels like an LBMA bank run – executed by Oligarchs. Prepare accordingly.

Ed sees a Fed rate cut coming as a result, and a market correction too – at least in the risk assets.  And heck – maybe the BLS will actually report the truth for a change, just to make Orange Hitler look bad, which will add fuel to the fire.  Of course, I thought they’d…

 Prep Now for the Coming Winter Challenges
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the needs and sustainability of our family. We have six young children, our oldest just turned 12 and our youngest just turned 3 months old. 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...
