S&P Confirms Inflation Killed the Stock Market and Has ALREADY Sent us into Recession

With the S&P diving deeper into bear territory today, it solidly confirmed its status as a bear. While it entered the bear’s woods on Monday by closing at 21.8% down, it shoved its nose deeper into the dirt today like a rooting bear will do to affirm its new identity. The short-lived bull market that […]

Thirteen Major Fails: a Quick Rundown of our Rundown Economy

During the Roaring Twenties would anyone have believed you if you told them about the depression and the dust-bowl years that were soon to come? Would they have believed their celebratory excesses during such a “strong economy” could possibly leave them collapsing into the dustbin of history that followed?

US Economy Crashes Headlong into Recession!

Is it too extreme to say an annualized GDP growth number of minus 1.4% this quarter puts us in recession in this quarter, and is it too extreme to call that a “crash?” No, it is not in the least extreme, and I’ll tell you why, even though the standard definition of a recession is […]

Epocalypse Revisited Part Six … Six, Six: Are we talking the “Mark of the Beast” Yet?

It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for […]

Epocalypse Revisited Part Four: The Cashless Society and the New Digital Dollar Divide. It’s here!

In writing almost two years ago about the Epocalypse that would envelope the world when the Everything Bubble crashed, I wrote about crypto currencies and the central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) that would rise out of the ashes like the phoenix as the central banks’ own “fiat” currencies collapsed or their economies did:

Epocalypse Revisited Part Two: The New Globalism

I promised my two-part Patron Post would lay out how the war and all the global sanctions will likely bring profound shifts to the “world order,” altering and accelerating the path toward globalization and control. I realize that is the opposite of what many are saying; and, as we’re on the leading edge of this, […]

Epocalypse Revisited Part One: Sanctions Will Intensify Shortages, Spread Starvation and Inflate Inflation All Over the World

This article is about how Putin’s War and the most intense global sanctions in history, put in place by the West to engage the battle from the sidelines, will make the scenarios I described in “The Everything Bubble Bust” more busted.

Epocalypse Revisited: The Recurring Nightmare of Economic Collapse

In 2015, I wrote about The Great Recession 2.0 that was coming upon us. I called it “The Epocalypse” to signify an economic apocalypse that would be epic in scale and that would begin a new epoch on earth — a turbulent time of global economic collapse. It described my overarching vision of our journey ahead.

The Everything Bubble Bust Pt. 2: Zombie Apocalypse

My first article in the “The Everything Bubble Bust” series focused on the bursting of the stock-market bubble, which is already reached minimum bear-market stage, because that is the most obvious area of everyone’s concern, and it is something with which we are all familiar. In my second article, I was going to focus on […]

Barreling Toward Epocalypse: Grading My 2020 Predictions

After each year closes, I typically grade myself on the predictions I made for that year. My last set of predictions were written near the end of June, during our reopening from the COVID lockdowns, for the second half: “2020 Economic Predictions: This Series of Unfortunate Events Guarantees the Epocalypse.” I led off with this […]

The Great Reset: Leaning into 2021 Money Storm

The big talk among economists and central banksters and some politicians in 2020 has shifted toward how the Coronacrisis will (or “must”) result in a global financial/social reset. I’ve said for years we can anticipate central bank digital currencies (even before that term existed) to happen in conjunction with a global financial reset. Now we […]

Halloween Madness Tears Stock Market to Shreds

Investors will start to realize the economy is not recovering in August, I said. As result, the stock market will break sometime in August or September, I said. It will likely experience an even bigger plunge as an October surprise, I said, because something about October loves a Halloweenish surprise for stocks.
