In Saturday’s Peoplenomics column, I wondered aloud about the oneironaut experience I had Friday night that involved a building collapse. Last item in the PN Saturday report. So, as part of my follow-up, here may be the “building collapse” with aspects of “scrambling up” and “bricks” that I was “seeing” ahead of time: A partial collapse … Read More
Survivors can’t rule out famine. Although what will really happen in the long-term is out of everyone’s reach, if we are to transition out of a less monetized existence, there will be widespread social risk. One of the largest of these is “food risk.” Not just the risks with a pesticide lawsuit, nor the idea … Read More
Now and then I get into conversations with my son about his next visit down here…which may come during summer, but hopefully September after the heat breaks. The reason? It will be a fine time to work on a couple of his “500-hour skills.” You see, he’s a prepper/survival-type, too. Many people don’t realize it, … Read More
Although we have a market that is still on crack, we wonder if the markets are yet discounting the remarks (a week ago) by a Mexican Senator – one Félix Salgado Macedonio – who is promoting Revolution 3.0 and has announced Mexico’s intent to move ahead with Reconquista. Here’s what he tweeted May 31: Trump … Read More
This being Friday. it’s lawn and garden day around here, so we will be posting this morning’s report in pieces. By doing this, I can get my lawn mowed (and maybe edged) before breakfast and the market open. Or not… Jobs Report Just out from the Labor Department: “The unemployment rate remained at 3.6 percent … Read More
Out of Tune Thursday! Don’t look now, but that grand economist Rod Stewart said it best: “Every Picture Tells a Story, Don’t It?“ Why, if George Thorogood (corrected) offered econometric models, this would be Bad to the Bone. To quote from the press release this morning: “CHICAGO, June 6, 2019 – U.S.-based employers announced plans to … Read More
Lies about Money and Labor. There are a couple of axioms that we roll through not to mention the various kinds of “money” out there. World does great at optimizing senseless digits. But average work-hours to live numbers? Forgetaboutit! Our current fave is pseudo-money – the made-up diggery digital spunk. Which, if you argue the … Read More
While I wasn’t going to write (free) columns on Wednesday, I just had to give some high praise to Microsoft on the recent update to Win-10 v. 1903 which was released a couple of weeks back. It’s stable, love the new features, but there are also a couple of install snags that we ran into … Read More
In our Aggregate Index view of things, we have now declined far enough that a short spike to the upside for a day or two might be in the works. As always, not advice of any sort, but a report on where the dart landed this morning. Why would the market go up? Sell in … Read More
We begin today with a case of woo-woo. Hell of a lot more interesting than just talking money and long wave economics all the time… As I’ve told you (uncountable times), I have oneironautic dreams. I “go places.” Some people would call this astral projection of out of body experience, but I don’t label it. … Read More
Today: Limits to Growth: People, Resources, and Money. But, far more important, in our “Replaying 1929” charts, we have this week a broken critical support and the gates of hell may be getting ready to open earlier than anyone planned. We’ll run you through the charts and a prediction of an S&P 500 below 2,000 … Read More
“The secret to effective time management is learning to “pre-live” your Life.” Recently, in one of our comment section remarks, a reader asked if I would give a short summary of my personal time management approach because I seem to get so much done. You may not like some of what follows because it’s not how … Read More
