Pivots, Recessions, and Covid-Zero
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

Two things happened in the markets this week: The Fed Pivot What’s a Recession Anyway? First, the Pivot. Which hasn’t happened, insofar as I can see, but the markets appear to believe that the Fed has “pivoted” – setting up to raise rates less enthusiastically than previously thought. Listening to the Federal Open Market Committee…

Fed Meeting This Week
 PREVIEW
by davefairtex

We have a Fed meeting Wednesday; this week, there was no material change in rate increase projection from the futures markets: a roughly 81% chance of a 75 basis point rate increase, with more rate increases projected to come after that. (Source) The European Central Bank actually did raise rates 50 bp this week, for…

Inside Take: Inflation by Fed Policy or Something Else?

Chris discusses the idea that either the Fed (and others like it) created the currency and supply problems through bad policies, or it’s a deterioration of systems caused by something different.

I’ll lead again with my new focus: rate increases.  Where are we? Last week: July 27, 92%: 2.25%-2.50% +0.75% increase Nov 2, 50%: 3.25%-3.50% +1.75% increase This week: July 27: 71%: 2.25%-2.50% +0.75% increase Nov 2: 44%: 3.25%-3.50% +1.75% increase Source Not much change.  The prospects for a rate increase are similar to last week,…

ALERT! Currency Crisis Will Severely Disrupt Supply Chains
 PREVIEW

Please, prepare for the worst. Note: For my new subscribers, an ALERT is a collection of facts and/or events that causes me to personally take action. Historically, I issue them quite rarely. My bar is high. If I were to rank my ALERTS on a scale, rather than as a yes/no binary condition, today’s would…

Recession or Hard Landing?
 PREVIEW
by Chris Martenson

Some people are still trying to pretend that the prospect of a U.S. recession is still an open question. Jerome Powell is one for obvious reasons – he’s not a legitimate observer of actual economic conditions, but the chief salesman for Wall Street banks and their dodgy products. So, he cannot be trusted to do…

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…

 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...
