Long-time reader (sufferer?) Nancy reminded me of something I should have mentioned in this morning’s “Well-storied Home” discussion. In addition to the “themed” digs at DisneyWorld and Disneyland, there are some really great hotels that manage to pull off to-die-for theming in rooms that transport guests. I still have on our shopping list 4-5 overnights … Read More
I haven’t read every book about the artform called Disney Imagineering, but I’ve got a pretty good start. Half a dozen books by geniuses like Rolly Crump. Marty Sklar, Richard Sherman, and how could we overlook two incredible handbooks on underlying processes by Lou Prosperi? One is The Imagineering Pyramid: Using Disney Theme Park Design Principles to Develop … Read More
On multiple levels, the markets are poised for a major turn over the next month. We get into some “nimbleness training” as events across the board are ready to “hit the blender.” The checklist for this morning includes Biden’s suspect trip to the Middle East, and odd trading patterns in our ChartPack. Then there’s the … Read More
Other than pondering UFOs and our ongoing search for “the Key” to Reality, not much else really matters in this life. Unless you’re talking about making some serious money. That never goes out of style, for long. As long-time readers appreciate, we have long postulated that a massive market decline in the pending economic collapse … Read More
Since our forte is economics around here, how about we begin with the two job numbers hitting the Street when the bell sounds? The first one out was the Challenger Job Cuts report. “Job Cuts Surge Up 57% From May 2022, 59% From June 2021 U.S.-based employers announced 32,517 cuts in June, a 58.8% increase from … Read More
Who needs Russia and Ukraine when drought is coming and famine is in the wings? As so often happens, our political tools in office are trying to fix the barn after it’s on fire and the horses are gone. The world needs water – because without it, kiss off crops and light the fuse of … Read More
We all love the good times and friends that gather over the Fourth. But, the opening ponders, with a (*violent) Fourth now behind us, are whether America is only one holiday away from collapse becoming widespread and undeniable? The next holiday ahead is Labor Day which falls on Monday September 5, 2022. Three numbers to … Read More
Fourth of July was expected to be a BTC bloodbath, by some. However, as of early this morning, we’re still in the “Running of the Shorts.” Since I woke up early (hobby and office work here) I’ve seen BTC climb from just barely over $19,000 to just a bit under $20,000. For the life of … Read More
Some while back, I mentioned that I’d picked up the Chineseum welder model similar to what’s on Amazon – like this one ($28) – which is “similar-to” the very reliable Smith Little Torch which – at $155 – is a shade more expensive. Before my review of the offshore entry, a few words contexting things for … Read More
Event Arrows have been loosed that will shape the balance of 2022 and form our entry into 2023. We need to look closely at some of these. The Fourth of July has always been a good time to kick back, assess the year to date, and see where the “arrow of events” is pointing for … Read More
A former colleague of mine suggested – shortly after BTC came out – that I accept BTC as payment for our Peoplenomics.com insider newsletter. At the time, BTCs were rolling along at a dime, or so. “No thanks. The whole idea of a zero utility, purely made-up, and digitally dependent currency – which will run … Read More
I told you so! Here’s what we posted Monday: We already know this all ends badly. The reason is simple: The Wave 1 down whacked BTC from the $61,411 range (November around when stocks peaked, too) down to around $35,070 January 22. thousand. Rounding-off (because of insufficient coffee to deal with decimals) call it a … Read More
Dreams, probability clouds, and sleep apnea is not the most mainstream economics and stock trading discussion you’ll run into, today. But it’s been an interesting journey following up on the many research forks apparent in our last discussion on point. Which was Prophecy, Cardiac Insufficiency, and Hypoxia. Today, we’ll be looking into additional data and … Read More
