Wasn’t it just a week ago that we of  the non-MSM press was being raked over the coals for pointing out that the payment of $400 million to Iran was paying for hostages? “Oh, no, no…” said the apologists for President Useless. Yet now, here we have the Obama administration via stooges at State admitting … Read More

Our first serious prepping note is thanks to my darling wife. While we were on vacation, she was driving and misjudged a turn into the carport where we were staying.  No damage to the carport, but a $1,200 ding in the old Lex. Problem:  While the dealership in Ft. Worth could have had the job, … Read More

A buddy of mine – and a bond-dude here in Texas in a big city that gets a lot of raise and has stupid-high property taxes – has been a wee bit skeptical of something I have been forecasting for months. Yet here we is:  Bonds going nowhere and stock at new record highs. Means … Read More

So here we go again…looking into the future. As long term-term readers of Peoplenomics.com know, we are set – in the long wave economic scheme of things – to move into the war period along about 2020 to 2015.  My consigliere is betting in 2022-2024 if you are looking for a tighter bet range. In … Read More

You don’t want to misprice risk – that’s one of the key ideas in the July Fed minutes just out. Several suggested that the Committee would likely have ample time to react if inflation rose more quickly than they currently anticipated, and they preferred to defer another increase in the federal funds rate until they … Read More

I’ve been hard at the charts this week and what I have to share this morning is enough to cause any sane person to consider dropping out of the presidential contest.  2017 mas “major ugly” potential. You see:  Whoever “wins” may be looking down the barrel of a 25-30% market decline (or worse) in 2017.  … Read More

Yes, boys and girls, we go off on the sacrilegious track once again, due to too much coffee and too many headlines. For those just tuning-in, here are the rules of the game: We go to the UrbanSurvival News Headline Scanner.  Here.  I select 5 headlines and try to guess their source. Then you do … Read More

Oh boy…have we got a lot to talk about this morning.  Let’s start with some feedback on the recent piece I did about “past life experience information” which some of our readers were kind enough to share.  If you are wondering why I am sharing this as a “technical note” there is a dman fine … Read More

If it seems slightly out of place for an economics-oriented website to address the events this weekend in Milwaukee, bear with me for a moment. It is really just another skirmish in a revolution that has been underway since the radical days of the 1960s. The present move toward a Second American Revolution began in … Read More

Events this weekend in Milwaukee have us asking difficult questions again: Like: “If Social Media is used to incite people to violence and riot in a certain place, are they not guilty of “inciting?” If so, can they be held liable by insurance companies and property owners when there is destruction of property? Thus Fox … Read More

The short version is simple:  You are wise to prep. The problem is, however, that many people will not see how they could be prepping for the wrong thing. And therein lies this morning’s in-depth exposition on Global Warming and – in case you hadn’t figured it – the kind that isn’t easily monetized by … Read More

If you are very detail-oriented, you will notice a new heading up on the menu called “Breaking News”. This is a breaking news page that I decided to put together in order to get a different slice of the news that I get from the “usual suspects” out there. It’s based on an RSS translator … Read More

Say, since we have talked about the “media fix is in” when comes to presidential politics, try this for a read when you get some time: “Tech Companies Apple, Twitter, Google, and Instagram Collude to Defeat Trump.” Many of the same points – and more – than we have made here.
