We have been holding to the idea lately that the market would be at one of those “turn either way” points when the election gets here. Over the last day, or two, one of our trading indicators (which our Peoplenomics.com subscribers will know as “the Trading Golem” has been revealing a great deal. The main … Read More

Once again this morning, we are beset by three things in America that no one wants to deal with. Our first one is Mexico’s slow-motion war with America. For those incapable of clear-thinking on the matter, Nations have borders.  That’s what the dopes in Washington have soft-soaped to the point where people are blind.  Self-delusion … Read More

ICoD1 simply means we kick-off our “In Case of Depression” series with this first article. Although we would love to buy into the “Nanny State will save us all” mentality, there are convincing reasons why this Depression will be different than any before. Schools have brainwashed most into believing that the US Great Depression (1929-1943) was “IT” … Read More

Peace with the Robots?  A Life Resource Planner to better use global resources?  Sounds a bit sci-fi, to be sure, but we may have no choice. Today on the UrbanSurvival side, I offer a few public comments about the Lifealyzer concept,  That is:  Are we approaching a juncture where governments will need to cede social … Read More

Our work has been indicating for some time (at least if you subscribe to our Peoplenomics.com site) that the markets are likely to place themselves in a “break-either-way” position by the time we get out to the congressional mid-term circus three weeks from today. What hasn’t been clear is just how things will work out … Read More

We begin the week with a short lecture to antifa.  Hopelessly misguided as events in the socialist city-state of Portland this weekend revealed (again).  Please take the time to read how “Bear spray, bloody brawls at Patriot Prayer ‘law and order’ march in Portland” worked out. In particular, we find the sham police of Portland … Read More

According to plan, the visit of my nearly life-long buddy – the major –  the fellow who’s my “brother of a different mother” will wrap up today. When you’ve been friends with someone for 66-years (admittedly longer than most readers have been alive) there are a number of topics that generally come up during a … Read More

Yet another week of chaotic markets.  So this morning we’ll give you some ideas on how to noodle your way through figuring out what comes next. It’s an imperfect process (or we’d all be rich by now) but any improvement over 50-50 seems worth pursuing… After a few headlines and such… More for Subscribers       ||| … Read More

Adventures of a rambling mind:  The other day I chanced to look at a piece of tile that Elaine had placed on the window sill of the guest room bath. That got me to thinking about a few other such tiles we’ve collected over the years.  A few from cruises we’ve been on and such. … Read More

These are interesting (trips-to-the-bathroom-inducing) times to be trading the markets.  Another 500-odd Dow points to the downside Thursday reminds us of several points average people will miss.  If I may? We are reminded that the fiercest forces of all are Mother Nature’s.  The remnants of hurricane Michael certain underscore that. Political assumptions are all mostly … Read More

Sure, Florida is an awful mess this morning in the wake of the hurricane hit Wednesday.  The storm is moving off to the northeast, vastly diminished. But we may have a bigger problem:  The Market.  Which blew through 800+ points yesterday for reasons that aren’t clear-enough to be apparent to the MSM. As you know, … Read More

Yes…today’s “deep thinking” piece is about mathematical modeling. But the really good news is that we will use hardly any mathematical terminology.  Other than some of the most basic functions anyone acquainted with Excel (and clones) can already deal with. Because we are in the “great hunter” mode – trying to spot the tracks of … Read More

The other day, I happened to be looking at some data on what preppers were really looking for on the web that landed ’em here on UrbanSurvival.  And I kid you not, these are some of the questions people are really asking: #1. How do I trim too many Hobbies? My oh my…do we have … Read More
