Won’t continue to worry the “digital ascension” since digital zombies don’t care. But, old man Ure know what the phone-zombies really like is money and toys. And, it’s getting to be the time of year when those “feelings of love” are totally worked-over to get the largest payday come the end of December. I’m not … Read More
The Fed is price-fixing and the Bubble is here. Yeah – free markets are a Big Lie. This one hit me like a ton of bricks this week. There I was, in my office doing generalizing. And that’s when the “veil lifted” and a whole new world appeared. As it turns out, much of what … Read More
Bad news for you, but we might as well bring this up on a Sunday, right? The rumblings that led into the “rapture” began in 1989. That’s when Motorola introduced the MicroTAC personal phone. The following year, GTE would bring it to market and bundled as a “flip phone.” But the real rapture begame in … Read More
Tensions are high going into this weekend. Daylight Time leaves Sunday. Worries are not because of signs and portents related to Halloween last night. Let’s “line ’em” up, for the day: We have a new Jobs Report to digest. The Fed may be dialing-back money growth. Fears of a False Flag are elevated. Patriots are … Read More
Necklines and Slashers for Halloween breakfast. Not normally the kind of article we’d put out on the non-subscriber site, but since we won’t be doing a subscriber column until Saturday, we need to talk. Now. Wednesday, the market did the expected (though we wished they’d been more foresightful) and lowered their rate a quarter point. … Read More
Narrowing the “fishing grounds” today, we consider the Q of Time. Sounds incredible, but as I’ve accumulated the data over the past several years, there is compelling reason to pursue two very specific lines of inquiry outlined in the three earlier reports on this. Today, we’ll begin the process of putting past time travel events … Read More
Just out the new Case-Shiller, S&P, CoreLogic monthly Housing report. I could have been better – things are very close to flat in the Month-on-Month data (before “corrections…”: “S&P Dow Jones Indices today released the latest results for the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Indices, the leading measure of U.S. home prices. Data released today for August … Read More
We’ll post the Housing Price Index (C/S HPI) as a separate post when it comes out, so drop by about 8:15 Central for that. Couldn’t sleep, so up early, venom about market hype being our first topic du jour. Aggregate Index Calls BS 1998, or so, I began to develop an Aggregate Index. Reason? Single Market … Read More
CaliFires: Someone of a conspiratorial mind-set might look at the unfolding disaster in the NorCal area and wonder if some evil force is behind the fires of late? In the latest, there’s part of I-80 closed near Vallejo, but worse, power blackouts threaten nearly a million as what should be a workweek rolls around. As … Read More
Know any fashion designers? Want to make a million dollars and/or be nominated for a Nobel? Well, read on… I’ve been thinking about a new coat design. Yes, that’s right, “Mr. Has Everything” ready does – including an Ocean ATX Kevlar-reinforced offshore sailing jacket. The kind going for almost $1-kilobuck these days; bought turning my … Read More
Been a while since I shared a “woo-woo” with you. Believe me, it’s not for a lack of material. That happens on an almost daily basis. Take Friday, for example. I needed a picture of piece of test equipment for the (now scheduled Wednesday) article on my “timer machine” build. So I grabbed a 16 … Read More
With all the attention in media to “fake news” we present a short course in sorting “wheat from chaff” today. Since I’ve got 50-years of reporting under my belt, I’ve been looking for a way to teach anyone – in a matter of minutes – to sort “real news” from fake. Surprisingly, this is one … Read More
Back in 2012, as an extension of work on our Peoplenomics.com subscriber site, I took a look at the future of the Internet. The result was my book “Broken Web The Coming Collapse of the Internet.” As normal (for me), since I tend to “live 10-years in the future” on strategic issues, I’m turning out to … Read More
