The Great Real Estate Crash of 2022/23
 PREVIEW
by Chris Martenson

I know it seems quite unlikely to people who have been struggling to buy a home that a real estate crash is possible, but I assure you that one is not only possible but has already started. How do I arrive at this conclusion? It’s partly from data, part deductive and part inductive. Also, this…

 PREVIEW

If you want to know, before other people, when something is about to change or break, you have to know where to look. In this video, I explain the “outside in” method of looking at the periphery for clues about when things might break down either sooner or harder. This method applies to individual organisms,…

Cold Comfort: The Discussion We Need to Have
by Barry Silverthorn

As hundreds of truckers protest in this nation’s frozen capital, Canada is in the news worldwide. What many people associate with Canada are things like maple syrup, back bacon, Tim Hortons, the word “sorry”, beer and toques (thanks Bob & Doug McKenzie), and that elusive Canadian girlfriend who no one has ever met. And hockey…

Canadian Truckers Roll!
by Chris Martenson

Thank you, people of Canada and the Canadian Truckers! You have given the world hope and ignited the people! You’ve given me hope. For that, I thank you. We all thank you! The authoritarian narrative of “you must follow our orders!” is falling apart. Feckless leaders of various countries, none more feckless than Justin Trudeau…

This is a continuation of Part 1. Click here to view: “Canadian Truckers Roll!“. The gaslighting of vaccine injured speaks volumes about the system in which we live and the morals of its operators and defenders. Same for the suppression of early, cheap and effective treatments. We have monsters within and among us. Truly heartless…

Off the Cuff: Forces of Nature
 PREVIEW
by Adam Taggart

In this week's Off the Cuff with Mish & Chris podcast, Mish and Chris discuss:

  • Behind the Bogus Jobs Numbers
    • Overestimates in the hundreds of thousands
  • The Massive Cost of Hurricane Sandy
    • The indirect costs are as concerning as the direct ones
  • Oh…Canada
    • No longer immune to the ills of its trading partners
  • The Fallible Fed
    • Out of arrows at this point?

The carnage of Hurricane Sandy provided a distraction this week from the election spectacle. Expect only a few more weeks of juiced-up numbers (e.g., jobs) and economic claptrap (the rebuilding from Sandy will be an economic boon and increase GDP!) before the unavoidable sinks in: There is no more carpet left to sweep things under. Recession is claiming nearly all of the G7 countries, the $20+ billion cleanup price tag from Sandy will be a sucker-punch to the already-toddering U.S. economy, and our leaders – irrespective of who wins the Presidential elections this month – are out of options. The forces of nature have been at bay long enough – and will now exert themselves, with prejudice.

In this week's Off the Cuff with Mish & Chris podcast, Mish and Chris discuss:

  • Unrest is breaking out around the world
    • When the populace has no options, it revolts
  • QE3 bang already a whimper
    • The impact of each successive easing is less than its precedent
  • Gold showing real strength
    • Support for the metal is going mainstream
  • Canadian coal-mine canary
    • Huge drop in housing sales

As predicted, as we head out of the slow summer, events are now beginning to unfold fast and furious. Renewed street riots in Spain and Greece show how disaffected the citizens there are from the failed policies that have been used to placate them to date. China and Japan seem to be inching further to potential armed conflict, as do Israel and Iran. The market is realizing that with open-ended money-printing now announced, there is no future "juice jolt" to anticipate, and so asset prices have already returned to pre-QE3 territory. With such uncertainty growing everywhere one looks, it's little surprise that more and more of those who once scoffed at gold are now recommending the precious metal.

In this week's Off the Cuff with Mish & Chris podcast, Mish and Chris tackle

  • The German Constitutional Court decision
    • What importance does it have? Any?
  • America is back in recession
    • More hard-to-refute data
  • Whither the Fed?
    • Why markets will be disappointed by Bernanke

Surprising to those who don't read this site, a number of notable announcements are happening this week besides Apple's unveiling of the iPhone 5…

Today, the German Constitutional Court made its ruling on the legality of Mario Drahgi's plans to flood European banks with liquidity. The court has the power to block the ECB's profligacy; but it seems that once again, politics trumps justice. Draghi will be allowed to proceed with some tissue-thin restraints. 

Meanwhile, new data show North America's economies are slowing down. Indeed, more and more analysts are coming to the conclusion that the US has slipped back into recession (even though to many it feels as if America had never left it). Jabbering of 'recovery' and slight declines in the official employment rate – which is a complete farce, as those unable to find work after a time are removed from the lists of those counted as 'unemployed' – are fooling no one at this point.

Which leads all eyes to the Fed. What will it do (or better asked, what can it do) to combat this dismal data?

 "It's About Control": An Interview with David Icke
Just got my result that I’m C19 positive.
I work at a mining camp in northern BC where I shared a bathroom with a guy (double injected) that was coughing for days and then tested positive. They got me to do a rapid test which was negative but I was feeling OK at that time.
Got home and started feeling...
