Most people consume news the way they consume caffeine: a quick jolt, a shallow reaction, and then they move on. Peoplenomics is built for people who want something different — a way to understand why events cluster, when risk shifts, and how long cycles quietly shape markets, politics, and even war. This week’s Peoplenomics report … Read More
Yes. Triskaidekaphobia fans, this is one of those rare “Friday the 13th days in Retrograde.” The F-13 part of our headline arises from (pick your fave) from the Wiki dope: Some cite the arrest of the Knights Templar on Friday, October 13, 1307, by officers of King Philip IV of France as the origin of the Friday the … Read More
I don’t know about you, but I’m getting sick of butt-covering by “Officialdom” instead of leveling-up with the Public. We ain’t all stupid, but we understand that idea deeply. A fine example this week was when the very same air travel-related computer systems failed – at the same time – in the U.S. and Canada. … Read More
Our Big Story this morning is probably one that feels a lot like we, as a Nation, are being set-up for a January Slam. “The Slam” (JanSlam) near as I can label it, will have many components all smashing on America at the same time. The first we can see by this morning’s poll on … Read More
We explain why onshoring of companies like Apple don’t mean we need to open our borders. What we need to do is up our game and become a smarter country with more tech savvy…
To know the future is to profit. Axiomatically, those who don’t profit, don’t know the future. I love long wave economics. It has taught me the fine art of patience – and being a kind of ADHD person, that’s a very good thing, indeed. This week, we begin our “stealing money from the Man” episode … Read More
I hope you don’t mind my sharing occasional vivid dreams that come along. Granted, they are weird, but they sometimes offer hints of what’s to come so I pass them on. I mean like my January 13 dream about the “big quake in April” or the Gulf Horizon dream, where I posted a dream very well-fitting of the Gulf oil disaster was posted fully 18-hours in advance of events. Had another one overnight which I thought you might get a kick out of. As this dream opened, it wasn’t clear whose perspective it was being seen from.
We’ve had bits and pieces of this discussion before: You remember that our early work on dreams was embodied in a project called the National Dream Center, which Chris McCleary has picked up and expanded at the www.nationaldreamcenter.com site and which continues to sniff and whiff major news events in advance… You may also recall that I have shared a lot of interesting dream experiences, including dreams that can be interpreted as having major precognitive aspects to them. A recent example was the January 13th dream about a coming major (west coast) earthquake in April.
If you’ve been around any length of time, you know I am as fascinated with dreams as predictors of future events – as I am with the ability of software to pick up coagulation areas in language and infer something about the future from that. So let’s rewind to our vivid dream about an April earthquake – which hasn’t happened yet – and see if there there is anything to be learned. The original “An Odd Earthquake Dream” was posted January 13th back here. At the time, part of the quake was the description of a 0+ quake, West Coast, and in April. Well, thankfully, the hot date for April has blown on by.
Not sure where to begin – since this is the last column on UrbanSurvival for this year. Given nothing extremely out of the ordinary goes down in the next couple of days, that is. Come Sunday, our ShopTalk Sunday column will appear on one of those “side project sites” that I tinker with now and … Read More
I promise, tomorrow’s Peoplenomics report will be much more positive. Because it deals with the task, we all face, of getting out of bed in the morning, trying to game out how to “Live a Perfect Day.” We hope your Christmas was close to being one of those. We worked in the yard a bit … Read More
My, ain’t ole Mr. Ure chipper and happy? Well, no. Some of the best shopping of the year (Amazon Prime Day is tomorrow) at the very time the Economic Sunset of America gets rolling with Wave 3 down. I mean the juxtaposition of this is flat-ass amazing. 1929 Meets WW 1 We’ve been here before, right? … Read More
Going short the market near the close Monday didn’t take a genius. The speech in the movie Patton delivered brilliantly by George C. Scott sums up the feelings around here: “Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time. That’s why Americans have never lost and will never … Read More
