This morning we’re really focused on the market which is about to enter (late this week and early next) one of our “crash zones.” These happen 55-days after significant market peaks. Full Moon comes along with it just to kick it up a notch. A couple of words on where we are and how to … Read More
We go on a romp of “connect the dots” this morning. The occasion is this is “medical week” for us. Killing time at the eye doc’s (20/50 and 20/30’ish for the eyes now) and off for Elaine’s turn this morning. This means time to read, but not at the high bandwidth, nor the data tools, … Read More
In the recent columns we have skirted around how prepping is definitely mainstream. It has come about in a very smooth way, too. Since for the most part, people have not cleaned-off store shelves, as often happens in advance of major storms and such. A word from the German government here, a hint from a … Read More
The first headline to pay attention to is the one about how Auto Sales are looking like they’ll hit $47 billion for September. This is insane, but it’s how the planet rolls. With this in mind, let’s see how we are doing on Ure’s replay of 1929, shall we? The proposed market top next spring … Read More
We normally would not start off a Monday morning with a UFO report, but this one is a little different and perhaps more significant. Let’s begin with the story itself,, which is neatly summarized with pictures in the UK Sun under the headline “WHAT THE HELL IS IT? Mystery as alien hunters catch bizarre UFO … Read More
We have a number of factors that are coming together that force us to think through an earthen home addition. Whether you are talking radiation resistance, food storage, an additional bedroom, family day room for when the grid goes during a hot summer in the south, or an additional armory space…a “Disaster Room” is making … Read More
If you read my column on September 19, you will recall that the first of my “red dates” to be on crash alert came up yesterday. No, not kidding. Go here and scroll down to the box and you will see I called it to the day. Not bad for a crazy man of the … Read More
Several times, people either in jest (and some seriously) will ask if I am paranoid because I take prepping so seriously. The answer, near as I can figure, is no, not paranoid. But I have an extremely good sense of inquiry and I like to see how pieces fit together. So should you if you’re … Read More
OK, almost a Peoplenomics report (no charts though and shorter) but very serious this morning. On the top of the agenda is a bunch of economic data, but then I get in to a serious rant on how the Fed is inserting itself in globalist trade with a regional Fed chief’s remarks in Ireland. That’s … Read More
I just wasted half an hour thanks to Microsoft’s “Anniversary Edition” of Windows 10. You may not have the same issues because I am a very cranky old geez when comes to people making changes to my computing environment without a) asking my permission at the time and b) giving me reasonable options. Worst of … Read More
So much for the Hillary Rally (“Rallary“) the market put on Tuesday. This morning we’re back to the bull and bear slugfest in earnest.. Futures were up a tad, but we’re really in a trading range as you’ll see in this morning’s ChartPack. Our main concern now is not so much about the looming (early … Read More
