Why, the headlines this morning are good enough that Al Gore should be flying to Phoenix right now in order to do another sales job on climate change and his friends in the carbon exchange, which was all enabled by a then-junior state senator in Illinois, back when, one Barack Obama). Here’s a headline from … Read More

Why would anyone spend money to launch a new website to be called www.americanvoterboycott.org? The answer is simple:  I think people are sick and tired of special interests outbidding us in local government, state offices, and in Congress. But, as I will map out this morning, we actually DO have the power to change that. … Read More

A number of people have asked me privately to explain where we are in the parabolic blow-off in digimoney, especially Bitcoin. As you know, it did look like the BTCs were going to the moon, or $3,000, but then a funny thing happened. So let’s take a look at a couple of chars because there … Read More

We need to understand that the US Congress and Senate are presently structuring their slow-motion war on the average American citizen’s private assets which will be finalized when the U.S. economic system descends into Depression shortly. That’s because in finance, as in rocketry, what goes UP usually comes Down.  And we’ve been going up since 1943. This means … Read More

There is a “missing R” in the phrase reuse, recycle, repurpose…and this morning we delve into the surprisingly favorable personal economics behind it.

For months we have been waiting to see how the suspected all-time-high in markets will work out for the final third of August.  Now, things are slowly resolving into focus. The stock market continues to fight something of a losing battle on an aggregated basis (which as you know is all we really care about) … Read More

You may remember a good while back (and it might have been on the Peoplenomics.com site) that we did a fair-sized discussion about the Taurid Meteor Shower and the very first Halloween some 15,560 years ago (approximately). This morning from remarks from another brother of the Oak Leafs, warhammer, who is similarly concerned about “what … Read More

(This will be updated as data is released) We will have an unusually short and to the point column this morning because I have a) been coding for the past 5-hours down in the CSS levels of the new website that I mentioned in Peoplenomics Wednesday and b) I have all the parts to get … Read More

Water, water, everywhere? We need to have a discussion guided by the writings of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.  He’s the “old dead dude” who wrote in the Rime of the Ancient Mariner our theme for this morning: “Water, water, everywhere, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.” (continues) What … Read More

Heady topic this morning as we take off down a different rabbit hole.  We’re going to “re-cast the news” and get rid of some of the shrill. As you know the term “fake news” has become quite popular lately, but as we shall demonstrate (complete with a class project and new website  as time permits) … Read More

A lot of so-called futurists are out on statistical limbs once again, prediction five-digit highs for BTCs and much more.  We also have the usual herd of newsletter writers (some claiming past work with government agencies) making lots of other projections about where markets will head next. Around here, we tend to sit back and use … Read More

Oh, boy…this will be complicated, but follow along. As you may know, I have been working on increasing my PK ability in order to do a little better at gambling. And this led to this really interesting book about gaming and learning how to rock the house. (continues) But where the book got interesting was … Read More

More on  this tomorrow but action in the bond market seems to support the view that a further decline – while possible – may not be in the cards.  Accordingly, I closed out my short position having made enough money for a (cheap) dinner and a movie, lol. This is NOT investment advice, but rather … Read More
