The Path by Which We Got Here
It wasn’t just COVID that got us down the road to ruin. Because many think we are in what looks like a post-apocalyptic world of rubble only because of COVID or because of Trump, I decided now would be a good time to summarize how predictably the Fed’s Great Recovery and Great Rewind got us […]
Stocks are Falling into Fall
All three major stock-market indices completed three consecutive weeks of falling today as we head into fall next week. The NASDAQ, as you see in the opening graph, has set up a clear trend of perfectly aligned closings this week.
Arrival of the Epocalypse and the 2020 Stock Market Meltdowns
I rarely mention anytime I’ve been interviewed. However, I was reviewing a casual conversation I just finished with one of my readers, Bob Unger, and I thought Bob’s questions led to a well-rounded expression of how, over the past two years, our economy got to the collapse we are in now, how predictable the Federal […]
Elliott Wave Theory v. Stock Market Predictions by Economic Sense
Elliott Wave charts are the stock market’s horoscope. Some advocates of Elliott Wave Theory even believe the stock market only collapses due to EW alignments.

How Price Inflation Works, and Why it May Finally Work Now!
I’ve said this before, but there is a strong reason why it has been clear we would NOT have price inflation during all the Federal Reserve’s money creation after the Great Recession and why we very well could have it now. I think this deserves a quick summary because even financial writers don’t get it.
You Could Get Mad as Hell and Just Not Take This Anymore!
It’s time to show you’re Fed up! Get mad as hell! Don’t take this any more! Scorch the earth with your rage! Yell from the rooftops! Stick your head out the window and scream! Fight the economic injustice that serves the rich! Kick political asses, and kick them hard! Don’t just whine, do something about […]
Goldman’s Stacks of Gold
Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and BlackRock Financial Management are stacking up wealth like never before, thanks to the Great Recession 2.0, a.k.a. the Second Great Depression. Yet, the Fed maintains its recovery plans do not create wealth disparity.

Recession Started Right on Time — Before Most Were Even Aware, So Beware!
Before we get into the timing of the recession, here is a graph that is particularly telling of the Fed’s journey and is worth studying from left to right. Notice how chaotic and less effective our journey with FedMed has become, just as I wrote about in another article this week (“Zero Hedge Confirms Fed […]
Zero Hedge Confirms Fed is Dead
It is always good to have a statement from the coroner when pronouncing death as I did on May 19, 2020. That is when I gave time of death and pronounced “The Fed is Dead.” You especially want the second opinion when you’re talking about Feddie Krueger, who has more extra lives than a cat […]
Robinhood & Its Band of Traders Not So Merry as Stock Market Turns Volatile
Robinhood retail investors believed the fairy tale of a V-shaped recovery, but Father Fed just told them that will never happen. Robinhood even had Goldman Sachs whining about its hedge fund basket not keeping up. Hope of a V-shaped recovery due to COVID-19 helped Robinhood take from Goldman’s sacks of gold, but failure of that […]
