Forensic economics for breakfast today.  If any of this makes your head hurt, Ure right, it should probably have been put on our Peoplenomics.com subscriber site.  We’re putting it up here because we really don’t wish to be right in our outlook. Let’s start up with a few basics: The big selling point of Bitcoin … Read More

Prediction and “the News” are on the menu this morning.  This follows both a major financial story – namely, the temporary solution to the Mexico tariffs being levied – and an incredibly interesting vivid dream that was posted to the  Peoplenomics subscriber side Saturday morning at our usual 8 AM posting time. This was some serious … Read More

OMG…hard to believe this.  Yet Another Building Collapse. Yeah…so this happened on Sunday in early afternoon in New York City and is headlined on WABC as “Partial Building Collapse in Manhattan…:” This may only make sense to Peoplenomics subscribers, but I had a “building collapse dream” on Friday night (early Sat AM). This was (I … Read More

Got to say, with the unrelenting censorship of views on a certain large social(ist) media platform, a lot of moderately conservative types to conservative liberal types can be found here freely discussing a lot of interesting topics.  Invasion by Mexico, them wanting states back (Revolcion 3.0) and the ICE dumpings in cities that are far … Read More

In Saturday’s Peoplenomics column, I wondered aloud about the oneironaut experience I had Friday night that involved a building collapse.  Last item in the PN Saturday report. So, as part of my follow-up, here may be the “building collapse” with aspects of “scrambling up” and “bricks” that I was “seeing” ahead of time:  A partial collapse … Read More

Survivors can’t rule out famine. Although what will really happen in the long-term is out of everyone’s reach, if we are to transition out of a less monetized existence, there will be widespread social risk.  One of the largest of these is “food risk.” Not just the risks with a pesticide lawsuit, nor the idea … Read More

Now and then I get into conversations with my son about his next visit down here…which may come during summer, but hopefully September after the heat breaks. The reason?  It will be a fine time to work on a couple of his “500-hour skills.”  You see, he’s a prepper/survival-type, too. Many people don’t realize it, … Read More

Although we have a market that is still on crack, we wonder if the markets are yet discounting the remarks (a week ago) by a Mexican Senator – one Félix Salgado Macedonio – who is promoting Revolution 3.0 and has announced Mexico’s intent to move ahead with Reconquista.  Here’s what he tweeted May 31: Trump … Read More

This being Friday. it’s lawn and garden day around here, so we will be posting this morning’s report in pieces.  By doing this, I can get my lawn mowed (and maybe edged) before breakfast and the market open.  Or not… Jobs Report Just out from the Labor Department: “The unemployment rate remained at 3.6 percent … Read More

Out of Tune Thursday! Don’t look now, but that grand economist Rod Stewart said it best:  “Every Picture Tells a Story, Don’t It?“ Why, if George Thorogood (corrected) offered econometric models, this would be Bad to the Bone. To quote from the press release this morning: “CHICAGO, June 6, 2019 – U.S.-based employers announced plans to … Read More

Lies about Money and Labor.  There are a couple of axioms that we roll through not to mention the various kinds of “money” out there.  World does great at optimizing senseless digits.  But average work-hours to live numbers?  Forgetaboutit! Our current fave is pseudo-money – the made-up diggery digital spunk.  Which, if you argue the … Read More

While I wasn’t going to write (free) columns on Wednesday, I just had to give some high praise to Microsoft on the recent update to Win-10 v. 1903 which was released a couple of weeks back. It’s stable, love the new features, but there are also a couple of install snags that we ran into … Read More

In our Aggregate Index view of things, we have now declined far enough that a short spike to the upside for a day or two  might be  in the works.  As always, not advice of any sort, but a report on where the dart landed this morning. Why would the market go up? Sell in … Read More
