This Friday, Donald Trump will be sworn in as President.

So this morning we offer some thoughts on the speech Trump should give.

Not that he will, but I hope you’ll agree, there are some damn interesting ideas put forth in the one we cobbled up for him.

Regardless, a week from now expect the headlines to be full of reports on how the Trump speech harkened back to Kennedy and the national goal of putting man on the moon..

A kind of short-form companion to our recently presented eBook for subscribers on Sales, this morning we roll through the six stages of marketing.

Although mainly useful if you have a management position in a company, being aware of these steps will help you in many ways, including how you “size up” companies you are thinking about investing in.  Useful stuff…

We were talking about Recipes this week in our Millennial’s Missing Manual (Coping section Thursday) and we have a dandy discussion this morning of Modern Monetary Theory and how it works and what does it mean.

The short answer is:  Formulas cloud thinking.  But it’s a kind of turf war between the math-leaning quants on the one hand with the more clear-headed behavioral economics believers on the other.

Bottom line is “What we all believe about the future tends to manifest” but there are some interesting :reasons why” in MMT which are worth talking about…

Yes, there are server-side issues – working on them… will be restored as soon as possible.

Although we’re fairly sure that the all-time market peak will arrive as early as March or as late at September, there are certain “stars” we can steer by.

We look at Housing, Gold, and Bitcoin prices this morning and make some observations about where these could head, and in turn, may drag the rest of the economy along with ’em.

By three cents!

I know – why would you celebrate a victory of 3-cents over a buy/hold on the S&P?  Well because it was done using a process that is coded and which back-tested actually rocks it in times of uncertainty like 2009.

In that year, the model doubled the return over a buy and hold S&P strategy.

So let’s talk about that plus our definitive guide to optimizing the home audio experience…

Over the past 15-years, a number of small business owners have asked me to share the approach that made the second half of my life a simple cruise between $100K+ jobs.

Well, there is a PROCESS and this PROCESS CAN BE LEARNED so I decided to write it down for my consulting clients years ago.

It turned out to be much more efficient that having to do site visits and such – “Read this, do what it says, and send me the reports.“

If a client said “We can’t do that” then I would patiently explain “then you can’t be successful to the degree you should be – so you’re fired.”   Yes, I fired clients.

Now it’s an e-book and it’s worth your time to read even though short and to the point.  Santa doesn’t want you to be poor.  Santa wants you to open your eyes and stack some cash.

Yeah, I know – wasn’t going to have a report this morning, but then I got to thinking (overnight) about the puzzling role of the Knickerbocker Crisis.  And then?

Well, let’s just say that sometimes when a good detective is on one suspect’s tail, they can end up with something completely different.

And this is precisely what happened this morning…

Peoplenomics will be posted an  hour or two later than normal.  And no, it’s not just the charts…we have a real treat for you… Check back around 9-10 AM Central Time.

Computational Futuring for breakfast today. 

A few headlines to get the coffee rolling this morning, then our first day of Winter issue gets into a novel way of futuring that will likely be incorporated in our further software adventures into futuring called Nostracodeus II.

S-curves are really interesting critter because they help visually sense what is going on in conventional numbers often presented in histogram form.

Plus in the charts, any big tax selling may be holding off until next week…which leaves us wondering when’s the best time to do tax selling…

We continue out backroom lab work on one of the most exciting segments of science in a long time, namely the growing interest (and positive results) being recorded  by photo biomodulation.

While we covered some of the work in our October 8 report, there is a lot more to report and the use of light to retard the onset of dementia, fight age-related macular degeneration, or simply reduce the ravages of time with anti-aging properties, this morning’s report is much longer than usual (5,200 words on topic) but I think you’ll agree once we wonder through the data and experimental science, there’s reason to be very hip to what’s coming.

Not to mention that understanding some of the science may dramatically alter your investment performance…

With the market soaring along at new all-time highs, what could possibly go wrong?

I mean besides the Fed decision due out in about six hours, or the Electoral College results coming Monday, or the problems of the National Debt and of course, all the dirty backroom politics of Washington, right?

We delve into that after we bring you up to speed on the Electoral issues just ahead.

Our report this morning centers of the experience of one reader, who we will not name, but who was recently separated from nearly $10,000 via an internet scam.

At the heart of this international fraud, we find a stack of cash, an urgent trip to Amsterdam to a “private bank” – and a lot more.

But before we go there, we need to look at how our Blow-Off top in the market is coming.  And as you’ll see in the ChartPack, we’ve only (to borrow from the Carpenters) just begun.

Bean up.  Computer problems are resolved and we’re back ready to rock n’ roll.
