Fed Meeting: Managing Collapse

A while back, on our https://peoplenomics.com site, we suggested that America’s decline into a second depression might not be recognized as such, at least for the first half-dozen years. The key is properly orchestrating a media-fooling blend of actual deflation, the never spoken of Modern Monetary Theory, and backed up with high print rates of fiat money. Since … Read More

Coping: Climate Cross-over Day

This weekend was full of “Making” things around the ranch.  Because it was so cool in the mornings, high 40’s, it got me to doing some serious noodling on this whole climate issue. Another factor was sweating…a lot!  When the morning starts off with coffee and it’s 56 in the shop, that’s what I’d call perfect … Read More

Two Data Points & What Goes Up

The day begins anew with Ure’s truly studying headlines, looking for signs of intelligent life on Earth. The news that Bill Cosby is headed for “the box” and that a “Longtime prosecutor takes over Weinstein case in NYC” are nearly equally useless headlines, as we seek the actionable. Unless you’re a high-powered defense attorney, there’s … Read More

Coping: “Re-Neighboring”

A remarkable thing happened the other day in our discussion section:  A seniorly reader had a massive car failure and it was of the scale that wasn’t “recoverable.” Amazingly, another reader, upon reading this, offered a free replacement car.  It’s no Escalade, but it’s the thought that counts.  Because, as we sink into the End of Everything, it’s … Read More

A Triple-Helping of Econ Data

We have a triple-serving today:  Durable Goods, International Trade, and Retail Inventories. Durable goods gives us an indication as to whether Big Spenders are laying out the ‘long green’ to keep economic hide-the-sausage working.  Durables are goods expected to last three-years, or longer.  Economists figure furnishing, outdoor equipment, appliances…that kind of thing.  If Durable Orders … Read More

That?  We are in an interesting space – or will be in coming weeks. We have an outlook for the market suggesting it’s possible, in late May, we may begin a nice rally.  From lower levels than now.  Problem is that the rally will end.  In fact, Zeus the Cat has a pool going for … Read More

Will February Lows Hold?

90-minutes before the open, the Futures were holding flat to tiny declines. Dow’s beinig arb’ed up.  Normally, this would lead to the idea that the declines are done for now.  But that’s what we deal with in our charts while nervously looking at what the collapse of Globalism would mean. After the charts, some notes … Read More

Housing To the Moon

Just how high will housing go in the go-go markets of Seattle, Las Vegas, and San Francisco? The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index, covering all nine U.S. census divisions, reported a 6.3% annual gain in February, up from 6.1% in the previous month. The 10-City Composite annual increase came in at … Read More

Markets 1928 or 1929?

We have a number of critical indicators to watch, such as this morning’s Chicago Fed National Activity Indicator: “Led … Read More

Coping: Two Days in The Realms (Part 1)

The process, that began with setting up the National Dream Center in 2008, is finally making sense.  There is a widening path, though more like a thinning curtain, between the nominal shared reality of the waking state (NSR) and the extra-conscious worlds encountered in the dream state (DS). The Dream Center concept was simple, at … Read More
