We assume our readers have some interest in getting “rich.”  And yes, it is not only possible but actually likely if you understand the financial conveyor belt.

In addition, a number of readers have asked me to explain when is a good time to hold a position (*short or long) over a weekend.

Although I’m not a registered professional, I do have some thoughts on that point as well ast things I do know well:  Long wave economics and making ssense of the news flow.

So that’s the “weekend menu” after we roll through some headlines and the ChartPack.

Big – wide-ranging – discussion this morning of the coming Digital Mob Rule that we’re already experiencing the leading Tweets of. But does this really lead to a reconsideration of semi-mythical creatures like Sasquatch?

Indeed, it does.  Though only if we look (as I do in my next book) at the schema of consciousness in Reality and how  unraveling those relationships is a bigger deal than even CERN.  After coffee, headlines, and charts, of course.

This morning, a look at why there is a case to be made for many companies to “go rural” and get out of Big Cities.

This is not just about socialist-leaning cities like Seattle – where they want to go after Jeff Bezos for slowing down Amazon expansion due to city plans to slap a head tax on businesses.  It’s also about things like quality of life.  Yes, that includes under-funded pension liabilities, as well.

In the Friday morning “Coping” section on UrbanSurvival.com I proposed something outrageou, even for us.
As readers know, we have been collecting a huge “bubble” of anomalous-event reports in the past week, including several “far-out” events rights here at the ranch in East Texas.

But, this morning we take it further and expand on the inquiry between the market “decision to bust out on the upside” with the arrival of this “weird to woo-woo” event-cloud.

Coffee up…we’ll get into that after a few wake-up headlines and the chart pack…

It’s my view that due to compounding of debt, watering of money, and depletion of resources, there may be “no place to hide” and some argue.

This morning, we talk about downsizing your lifestyle before it becomes a necessity – and this means while you still have a lot of good choices that can be made.  After headlines and charts, of course…
