What better time to look at what’s been going on in the back room of Old Man Labs here at the ranch? This morning, we lift just one corner of the veil of secrecy that I’ve thrown over my efforts to help hack space-time. Dimensions Next Door.Compared to what’s at stake? The weekly stock charts … Read More
Reader Note: Due to a CenturyLink outage, we are on backup/satellite access this morning. The [alleged] phone company says service should be back up at 9 AM. But you can trust that as much as you can trust Congress. But, we’d like to be surprised, for a change (on both counts). “So take a later, … Read More
Yep…the “little darlings” are back in the [brain] washing stations learning how to be social just-us warriors. And that means they are off the streets and campgrounds are quiet again. Yes sir! I mentioned last week that my buddy Gaye (SurvivalWooman) and her hubby (SurvivalHubby) (who looks a tad like Hulk Hogan, come to think … Read More
Damn! Computer error on my end. It will be there tomorrow…I apologize for the slip-up on Ure’s part!
No surprise to the Fed decision Wednesday. Why do anything when nothing will work? So, as we figured, they didn’t do anything other than yammer about inflation target this, expectations that. The usual stuff. Blah, blah, blah. What matters, though, is how much money is being made up. Modern Monetary Theory – which I call … Read More
We have a very interesting mix this morning, as we look both at what the charts seem to be telling us and what that says for the future when we toss in some recent developments in retailing. This may be one of those periods when, if someone pays attention, the market is telling us things. … Read More
In a shocking revelation that has just appeared in the media in the past 24-hours, we now know the Obama administration wire-tapped Paul Manafort who would become a key Trump campaign official. But it’s really much worse that it sounds – which for our tastes is crooked enough, already. Let’s run through some timeline, shall … Read More
Oh, my. Reader Kirk caught Mr. Ure’s half-blind, 3/4 stupid math error Monday. The correct answer is the market Aggregate is up 3.3367% from the all-time highs set (and this time I looked up the date:) Week of April 10, 2015. About here, had I been elected Divine Ruler of the Planet, one of my … Read More
WTF? Hang on, bub. Simple stuff, really: What it means (for those familiar with Elder Futhark runes), is that our symbol du jour today would be the Fehu. Which approximates cattle or great wealth. Neander bling? Uh…well…yes. There was a time before E-Trade…. Tomorrow, ahead of a Fed decision on rates Wednesday (no change) we expect … Read More
Lynch mobs are back. Only, they are the new, improved, and most importantly “digital” portable lynch mobs. Only thing is, they are not so neatly labeled. It’s blurred by the media…perhaps on purpose. But upon reflection, new kind of business model has been spawned by America. Not a healthy one, just a new one. (Continues … Read More
Yeah, the stock market is at record highs. Not unexpected, and from here we may have even more upside ahead. But, there is an ugly geopolitical mess half-way around the world: Korea. And the task this morning is to look at ways to possibly make a buck, or save some, when that whole thing “blows … Read More
I don’t often share Peoplenomics.com content on the UrbanSurvival side of thing, but sometimes when we get it right…and timely…as BTC’s crashed to under $3,000 each this morning before the “buy the dippers” came in… We also said: “Meantime, we’re not alone in our assessment of Bitcoin. “Jamie Dimon Slams Bitcoin as a ‘Fraud’ – … Read More
Yeah. I know. “Last thing you need, Ure, is another damn hobby…” Admittedly, between Elaine and I, we’ve been through a few of them. Most recently, I’ve been taking a break every forty-minutes and hitting either the treadmill or the weight machine for 10-minutes of “high intensity training” on the theory that I’ll live long. … Read More
