Asset Classes for the Future

Today, we consider that as investors, we can pretty much own anything.  Which gets us smack-dab to “What’s worth owning?”  Not just for today, but for a definable period.  Say the next 10-years. What do you buy? It’s a long discussion but interesting. Because while we all like to be lazy about investing, there may … Read More

The Anti-Aging Elixir (1)

Investors – deep down – know one of the fundamental rules of money is “Must be present to Win.” Which means there’s a reason to spend profits now and then on getting healthy as possible. This week, we focus on a key new idea that has come out of research into life extension. But while … Read More

Warring on Weight, Warming Hype, War

If – or likely when – wider war shows up, readers are already fearing a second-phase of the American die-off will arrive.  Reader Stephen2’s comments on drug supply chains are spot-on.  In war supply chains are likely to crumble. Rationing.  Even of meds. Losing weight is hard, but dying could be harder. Today we also … Read More

China to Replay U.S. 1929 Role?

While not offering advice, I did mention to subscribers I’d gone short last Friday. Odd things happen in the long wave economic cycles.  Positions of power and influence change.  With it, nations rise – and as we fear out west – they can also fall. This will leave the U.S. to reprise the role of … Read More

A Reasonable Court in an Unreasonable World

Some major SupCo decisions this week and we find them most agreeable. But they are not popular, depending on which one(s) you talk about. Today our main focus, being a holiday weekend, is on the charts.  We are eyeing the coming few weeks to see if the end of the Wave 2 rally will become … Read More

Seven Paradoxes of Technology

We’re focused today on the subtle – but world-wrecking differences – between Numerical Accounting and what we’d label Natural Accounting. OK, it may seem like an odd place to attempt changing the world from, but go with me on this for a second. Natural Accounting is about all possible measurements.  Climate, resource depletion, impact of … Read More

Charts Whisper a Grim Future

IF (and is still iffy) the top of Wave 2 is in – and the market continues sliding into a major Wave 3 Down – certain aspects and timing about Future become clear.  Because while there was much hype Friday about a “coup in Russia – like it was good news in some way – … Read More

Avoiding a “Solar Fleece”

A number of readers have asked me how to judge an investment in solar power.  Today we will take a deep look at solarnomics.  However, as you’ll discover, there’s a legal cloud – not so much an accounting  issue – that lurks as great peril to solar investors. Yeah, including us.  I got “bit” too. … Read More

Biden’s (Internet) Hostage Crisis?

Digital preparedness has been one focus on the UrbanSurvival.com site this week.  Now the “reason why” is coming into focus with headlines today like U.S. Energy Dept gets two ransom notices as MOVEit hack claims more victims have been crossing. Normally, were it a corporation, there would likely have been a major uptick in Bitcoin … Read More

Cause Economics

Two remarkable events are tabled this morning. Our BrainAmp spreadsheet projected Wave 2 Fibonacci high was hit at Tuesday’s close (within a point).  And in the other, we are increasingly concerned that non-banker socioeconomic tools are wresting control of our economic future away from those entrusted to manage it. Pretty serious stuff. Plus, we’ll look … Read More

Oversold Bull!

Park the Bull Market Talk. We don’t mean to be critical of the me-too press, but… Yeah, this morning a few hard facts the cheerleader pom-pom media didn’t bother to emphasize while driving the market higher this week. This being the middle of summer sweats around here, we’re keeping our focus on the Charts and … Read More

FedThink Thursday and Market Waffles

On the surface,  today is starting off as another ho-hum.  But, when we look beneath the surface, there are some Big Important Moving Parts creaking into place. Fed Consumer Spending+ We detest the Fed’s lack of “data candor.”  A familiar example began when St. Greenspan decided to hide the broadest measure of Money Stocks – … Read More

Should “Prepping” Become “War Planning”?

We’ve been writing about Prepping almost from the beginnings of the Internet. Now, things are changing.  Well in advance of the Y2K “non-event” we were prepping.  I’d even gone so far as to position our “escape pod sailboat” at a safe harbor outside of the Seattle metro area.  In the event something did go wrong, … Read More
