CFNAI, A Bounce for…??? Media Coverage and Segregation

Busy as hell around here (though I know it has been coming).  Spring is in the air and for one old man, two deck plans and a generator shed plus greenhouse repairs, plus…  well, to the column, huh? VIX, Volatility, and CFNAI We figure another hard down (or blow-off rally) will happen this week.  Because … Read More

ShopTalk Sunday: Franklin on Shops, Remote Love, Getting Jacked

The philosophy of workmanship, purpose of life, and durable projects is served up for brunch. A Project Gutenberg page, The Project Gutenberg eBook on The Way to Wealth, by Benjamin Franklin. (free) deserves a bookmark.  For in it, Franklin speaks of Practical Matters: “Keep thy shop, and thy shop will keep thee:” and again, “If … Read More

“Peroxide Week” Ahead

When “reality bites” you’ll want to have the peroxide handy. Rinse out the wounded past and get on with the living. Think about all the incisors! We’ve got rumors of Ukraine turning over, a president who is doing more housecleaning than Heloise (hint, hint). And the Left is getting darned near desperate. Thing that worries … Read More

Pricing the Paradox, Agetivity, Do-Ology, and QFPD

The mount of “actual” news is not particularly awe-inspiring today.  Been a bitch of a cold week, the scalar project (1 orf 2) is ready to ship out of the lab. But there is a certain “hollowness” to it all that seems less than promising. A decades-old saying (from when I taught the fine art of … Read More

Looking Out Below!

Here’s an update on our Ebbinghaus view (much more legible than this morning’s).  Converge and then a break, anyone?   Here as a PDF. 20250220midpt   -g  

Vignettes at 76

Paradoxically, we can learn about “what’s ahead” by looking over our shoulders.  Because this being “birthday week” there is a ton to consider about Life.  Which often gets overlooked in the “noise floor of current events.” Some pointers along the way, the many charts in our daily ChartPack, and some possible outcomes from presently evolving … Read More

Workweek Roulette, Waiting on Mkt’s, Garden-Gaming Spring

With our Presidents Day activities (getting a scalar prototype out the door this week_) most of today will be devoted to work in Ure’s Old Man Lab.   I don’t talk about it much – people’s eyes tend to glaze over, but it’s a very well-appointed place to hang out and do work on the fringe-stuff … Read More

ShopTalk Sunday: Ham Radio – Scalar Antenna Dreams

We need to begin at the beginning, I suppose.  Because I am working with a colleague who is investigating something, and needs a PEMF (pulse, electro magnetic force) device to interact with, I have been up to my butt in Tesla/scalar antenna designs this week.  And, curiously, how to simplify the design to use all … Read More

The Many Rhymes of Boss Trump

Birthing of Network Radio in the 1920s with a modern rhyme with Social Media is one thinking point today. Along with how stock tips are mimicked by :crypto tips” which no one seems to understand, yet. Radio networks vs. Social media. Stock tips versus Crypto tipso’s. and Smoot-Hawley 2 – the Trump Sequel. This being … Read More

Can the Fed Blow It Up? Scalar Ham Antenna Project

With the strong rally in the stock market Thursday, the markets had the “look and feel” (to us) of getting into a “Buy the Rumor, Sell the News” mode ahead of today’s Retail Sales numbers and the Fed Industrial Production data shortly. The Fed has already taken away the punch bowl with the appearances of … Read More

PPI vs. Inflation, Musk says “Delete” and Extensive Woo-Woo in the Lab

With inflation back *(as we explained in the Peoplenomics report Wednesday), you’d naturally expect PPI to jump and that’s not even taking in tariffs: “The Producer Price Index for final demand increased 0.4 percent in January, seasonally adjusted, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Final demand prices rose 0.5 percent in December 2024 … Read More
