A Peoplenomics report today which is sure to get a large following, both with centrists and (probably) with fusion centers. How many times have we told you how sick we get of people griping, whining, and becoming simple-minded, media-sucking, babies who don’t offer strong, effective, long-term solutions? I don’t know about you, but I haven’t … Read More

Short-form thinking is shorting out. I’ve written a lot over the past 20-odd years on a problem balled-up as “Information compression distortion.”  (ICD).  Common problem in DSP, graphics and streaming, Essentially:  When information is over-compressed there is “distortion of message baked-in the cake. So (other than pointing at most of Twitter and FB) we now have a fresh … Read More

We covered the groundwork, for what is threatening to be yet-another public health bureaucrats’ globalist-backed power-grab. Back in July 2021 we wrote: “Leaving us to wonder “Is this the short everyone should have seen coming, or does Savior Joe have a plan to pull it out?” That’s before we get to MonkeyPox, though:  Monkeypox outbreak fears as … Read More

If you have ever tinkered with any kind of serious welding gear, there’s one simple – inescapable fact – that we can’t get around.  Stuff’s heavy!  You need a cart. Now, not everyone has a poured and polished leveled concrete shop floor in their home.  Out here in the woods, my shop is a “redneck … Read More

Bear!  The report that the stock market (measured by the Dow Industrials) has now experienced its longest losing streak since 1923 is certainly no surprise around here.  Our subscribers have enjoyed the advantage of a multiple-index, equal dollar weighted average to help put present day – and historic al times – into perspective. Overall, though, … Read More

With no major financial stories to parrot, (Dow futures +236) we find ourselves, once again, stuck in “The Investor’s Dilemma.” Which happens when we have “conflicting inputs” for investment decisions. You see, just as the (bicameral) brain often operates like a deadlocked House vs. Senate, and just as duality appears in poetic as compared with … Read More

Before the Futures began changing this morning, the overnight view of our Aggregate Index looked like this: We will update you on how the wave count goes in a second. First, though, a personal word about trading. Pilots, Instruments, Markets Someone is bound to ask “How’d you do in the drop Wednesday, Ure?” In the … Read More

Not enough on your plate to worry you? Time to become a “Seniorpreneur!”  Today we take up some very uncomfortable forward-thinking about what may lie ahead for America’s aging grays.  (Two of which we is.) Beyond just lining-out the problem, though, we have some ideas for how to cope with hard times that you can … Read More

4:30 AM and Ure is “back in the chair” for another round of play.  “Money for Nothing” cranked.  Coffee hot and strong, sunrise a couple of hours ahead. There are differences between my office and other Casinos, of course.  For one, time is of the essence here.  Clocks all over:  German, British, and American market times … Read More

While Bitcoin looks to sucker-in more of the “buy the dips” crowd, and prices early remained planted around $30,000, we are instead waiting for Markets to wake up to the no growth model and reprice accordingly. But the BIG story is how the Biden administration continues to kill America’s future.  It is almost as though … Read More

8:55 AM/ 14:55 UTC just worked YB9GDP on 14.021 CW. That’s Munawiril down in Lomok Timur, Indonesia. The reason I mention this (for preppers) is to demonstrate a couple of things:  First, his code speed (hand key) is 16 words per minute.  Easy copy once you lock on to his “fist.” But the second point, … Read More

Once you know that there is essentially no difference between what the social conventions call “WORK” and what some of us call “PLAY”, then term “workstation” becomes interchangeable with “playstation.”  [Sony lawyers notwithstanding, but our use is in the generic sense, not the product anchored wordmark (2 cap letters), and there is plenty of prior art.  … Read More

Another look over my shoulder as we use “alternative means” in our quest to beat markets.”  And as you can tell from the title, this experiment is in progress until Monday. See, when markets are making big, powerful moves, you don’t want to get in the way of them. And since the Fed has made … Read More
