Pencil Work

Don’t look now, but the comparison with 1929 is back.  So today we’re throwing a pencil at it. Because while 1929 can never happen again, runaway inflation of asset prices not only can but there’s a fair case it has been underway since summer.

Of course, a few (obligatory) headlines and the preview of the week ahead. But even here, we’ll b e playing the “Event Linkage Game” and try to figure out a “most likely path” to get to next week’s winner and loser.

Oh, and we have more action evolving on the weather front, as well, so don’t blow off today’s report…

Life, Extended?

Big doings today with the final couple of chapters of our Longevity playbook plus the new ADP jobs report just out. But, that’s not all.

There’s the usual last-minute silliness that comes with virtually all elections and there’s the usual assortment of shock-and-awe as the markets continue their levitation act.  A bit of perspective on inflation and gold while we’re at it, as well.

Second cup – and maybe a third with this one.

Bubble per Capita Calculations

Two worthy topics on tape today (besides the weekend war outlook). We do some mighty interesting (and humbling) calculations comparing the 1929 bubble (and inflation from the Great Depression) with modern times.  You talk about getting knocked down a notch!

Then we do another chapter of our Longevity book (“Tell your doctor” – but it may be retitled “This is getting old – firsthand…”).  This Subscriber’s only book is more than 50,000 words and a ton of research and personal “best practices” we’ve been following.

Before we move to the interesting stuff, though, we will pause long enough to throw a few BRICS at passing headlines…

Waitstate Weekend

We have a list of “life-changing, but for now still pending” events that make us a bit cranky this weekend.  No, not that we are in a hurry for WW III to break out, nor are we anxious for the wrong presidential candidate to get the nod by voters.  OK, and we don’t really want Iran to lob a nuke or Israel to “go first” into that future, either.

But sometimes, like good little air & food processors there’s not really much we can do – other than wait for the sluggish Future to get back to us.

There is other study to be done, including musing a bit in today’s ChartPack about the coming of “Citabria Markets” and the Lomcovak moments ahead.  If this doesn’t make sense, then might we suggest some remedial reading to get your head back in the cockpit?  Try this, for example.

2025: A Change in Prepping

Beans, bullets, and a big water source are sliding as priorities a bit.  While preppers up-armor, it’s time to check emotional supports, and look for rational national leadership.  All as America comes under attack by foreign drug gangs who’ve infiltrated via the Obama-Biden-Harris open border.

Which means what, exactly?  Simply that our Seven Major Physical Systems prepping paradigm has to change with the times.  It will be augmented with four important classes of “emotional support prepping” over the coming year.

All while we await the Big Wars breaking out (which could light up any minute) and while we await political pandemonium  sure to follow an election which now features racism as a sales pitch. A nod to the “Klan” party standard bearer.

In the midst of all this, we have come up with a new way of looking at financial markets that you’ll find interesting in today’s ChartPack.

Dangerous Mindsets

The Partisan News problem is growing. It’s hard enough to figure out the Future – even when you have a good and reliable set of facts at hand.

But the evolving problem in the world now – in addition to the liberal disease of “talking-past the other party” – is that “clean sourcing” is becoming more difficult.

So we begin the weekend with some ponders of what’s ahead.

The FEMA Calamity

A recent Peoplenomics report may have sounded a bit harsh on FEMA. But NC events are making it clear: We weren’t tough enough. Some observations and suggestions plus a sampling of reader reports kicks off the weekend.

And then we roll into the most perplexing question of all: With global war, FEMA incompetence, and no sign of a genuine “crisis ready leader” for the Oval, why are markets holding up so well?

Toss in a few war front notes – got lots of them to pick through – and it’s a report that is sure to have you muttering “Glad it’s the weekend!”

Sex and Other Mine Fields

We arrive at Chapter 12 of our book on anti-aging techniques just in time for War.  Impeckerble timing, if I do say so.

Before we jump in to the problem of “rolling the clock back” there’s not only war to discuss but also the employment report – ADP is out.

And then there’s the ChartPack where to try to figure out which place on the cliff we drove off…

You’re advised to bring coffee and a good sense of humor.  Because while war is no laughing matter, politics of late – and several other topics – really have become jokes. Even though no one’s laughing, yet.

America’s Riskiest Time Ever?

We’ve been reporting on Peoplenomics for more than a quarter century and never before have so many factors been in the “this close” column. We have a least three major wars in the wings, a major national disaster just hit the Southeast and there is a hotly contested presidential contest to be decided in just over a month.  Talk about vulnerabilities stacking up!

This morning a few of the highlights.  Plus in the chart pack, we get into the paradox of a market (and whole world) which seems to be responding to a methodical bout of inflation instead of the facts right before us.

It’s a sobering time when yes, there are things that could be scarier than Halloween.

Next Level Prepping (1)

No one seems to have noticed, except maybe us: FEMA has about totally botched its “civil defense” mission.  In fact, we went looking for evidence of how FEMA is prepared to defend the US from all hazards.  Wow! Were we disappointed.

Using a search engine, it’s clear while Civil Defense is a big deal elsewhere, America has already fallen into the cellar.

We’ll dig into that and do the charts and a few news items along the way, too.  Single cup issue this week – if you read fast.

To me, this was a troubling report to write. Because in it, there are two undeniable examples of how America is in process of “rolling over” into a second Roman collapse.  Sorry to report.

A Recrod High – Or Was It?

Headlines galore about “stock market records” this week. But, as long time readers know, we take such headlines with a grain of salt.  Particularly when they are not based entirely on big picture and “apples to apples” analysis.

Again, we propose that our wider aperture using the Aggregate Index may offer some unusual insights.

Six weeks out from a presidential election – we are not surprised by a lack of public acuity, though.  It’s what the Mainstream has been peddling – and so far, it’s working…
