Once again this morning, the lost souls of the Mainstream Media (LSMSM) are showing how disconnected from reality they remain.  After 2-1/2 years of no collusion, I can’t blame Trump for being pissed with Destructors whose only goal is to seize power in a phony left-wing “victim” coup and seize the fruits of all our … Read More

Forget the BS the MSM is putting out today.  There’s no election is sight and the news cycles are dominated by either Tropical Leftover Barry stories or the ongoing political absurdity that will drive any rational person to grab the remote.  Reruns of The Nanny are more interesting… This morning, we’re going to talk practical … Read More

No hype and no BS:  If the lights went out today, How long would you live?  I know, summer weekend and it’s not so bad, provided you don’t live down by the Gulf with Barry rolling in. If there’s one semi-regular pattern to highly successful people, it is this:  They do the most difficult things … Read More

This time of the year, millions of Americans take some time off.  One of the most popular ways to do this is by taking a ‘recreational vehicle’ and going somewhere.  But few people realize that to a large extent, RV’s had theirs roots in the original build-out of America. The February 1905 editions of Popular … Read More

With Dow futures up almost another hunsky before the open, the economic news is not so interesting as the “wave of the mob” so let’s till that ground for breakfast… Wrong picture, Drudge:  Today’s DrudgeReport shamefully puts up a picture of Donald Trump on a $20-bill to draw attention to a story about the Federal Deficit.  … Read More

The strategic question all investors – regardless of where you roll the dice, BTC’s, stocks, commodities, ForEx and such –  is when (and how) does this puppy ‘flame-out?’ To be sure, since the Christmas Eve washout, our Aggregate Index (which averages multiple market benchmarks) as soared from 19,841 to the Wednesday close to 25,377.  Since … Read More

Who owns the environment?  A strange mental disease began creeping into Western thinking.  Today, as we go looking for Quality – long lost in action – we focus not only on the major environmental issues that are here, but also on the underlying mindset that enables ‘others’ to claim primacy over things like clouds, rainwater, … Read More

We are looking for the markets to react to Fed Chairman Powell’s speech which will get underway about 8:45 AM Eastern. In advance, the Wall Street Journal was saying “Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s Approach to Interest-Rate Policy Wins Bipartisan Backing.” Tomorrow on our Peoplenomics.com subscriber side, some notes about Fed rates and where markets head. And … Read More

Events over the weekend have led us to considering a “Hype Index” again. Markets are moved, as we’ve learned, from a combination of both fact and fiction.  We see the ‘facts’ as pretty obvious in the economic news releases and data updates.  But, the fiction? Ah, there’s the rub.  Fiction depends on who is writing … Read More

So this morning we put on our “project engineering hat” and begin thinking and planning a migration path from a good experience with basic gardening to something which could become a ‘daily activity planner’  resulting in a never-ending garden.  Meaning you might never having to worry about food again – ever. We won’t be using … Read More

(knock on wood) Elaine and I are blessed with amazing genes.  Most people take us to be 15-years (or more) younger than we are. There’s a reason for this:  I am still very active.  Writing, ham radio projects, home improvement projects, the yard and – as we will get into next weekend – there’s also … Read More

EmpSit:  Employment Situation Report A couple of hours before the open this morning, Dow Futures were down a bit more than 30 points as the global market is awaiting on US data to see how this week will wind-up. So, here’s the data and there may be a MAGA reality here we need to consider: … Read More

Several items in the ponder-pile today – thinking pieces all: My buddy Gaye who writes StrategicLivingBlog.com has a dandy post on the rampant, runaway, nonsensical divisiveness that the Digital Mob Rule types are using to bring down historical (balanced) America and replace it with their version of socialism they’re all after.  The Idiocracy I think … Read More
