This week on Off The Cuff Michael Gayed, CFA, and I discussed his views on the markets, the economy, and where they are headed. Michael thinks there’s a “credit event” coming that will shake it all up. What’s a credit event? That’s a “Lehman moment” or a string of bank failures that cascade to other […]
The BRICs conference in South Africa was a game-changer. With so many new additions I guess the new acronym is BRICSEAEUSI. With the new additions, there is an even larger gap now. The little kids have all joined up and grown up and now they are the big kids.
There were just two reports this week among those I track, in addition to the banking stats: Durable Goods (DGORDER): -15B (-5.15% m/m); decline after a new all-time high. Median New Home Sale Price (MSPNHSUS): 437k +20k (+4.58% m/m); rebound after 12-month $80k decline. Bank Credit (TOTBKCR): +7B (+0.04% w/w); flat, deflationary. Fed Balance Sheet […]
Fiat money is a trust-based system. That trust has been destroyed for many. What this means is lots and lots of volatility in the markets is coming, which is a euphemism for "blood in the streets" as they say on Wall Street.
Is it a good time to get into real estate? What’s driving inflation? Did the truckers in Ottawa honk too loudly? What comes next for interest rates? Tune in to find out.
Advice: watch and wait. Watch MSM (try to measure the shriek volume), and measure the Big Money moves too. Big Money always moves in advance of events. They always know. They are probably the most reliable indicator - but the Biden-Handlers will probably be floating trial balloons along the way too. Assuming this is the plan.
What a time to be alive. Everything you might have thought your country stood for, or imagined it was, has now been revealed to be an unsatisfying if not dangerous fraud. The censors are back at it again, and the open weaponization of the (in)justice system is on open display. But there is hope. And […]
China's Selling of Treasuries and their financial difficulties could well result in a major global financial 'incident.' Maybe it's time to consider a debt jubilee? Well, no, and here's why

The fires in Maui, particularly the one that swept through Lahaina were a true disaster. The people who live there are going to need a lot of help and support. Unfortunately, that crisis will be excitedly pounced upon by various nudge units and PsyOp teams eager to test out their tracking and shaping tools.

There are 8 billion monkeys, and the bosses are desperate to keep the monkeys dancing. So they feel they have to keep killing more chickens to keep the monkeys in line. The parable works with 1 boss and 1 monkey, but that's not reality. As this continues, the monkeys are slowly starting to figure out the game. At some point, the monkeys will look around and realize just how many monkeys and just how few bosses there actually are.
Biden, channeling neocon sentiment, insulted the entirety of China by calling them "bad people." As the tensions mount over Taiwan, these moments add fuel to the fire. We'd all do well to 'believe our lying eyes' and take this all seriously by preparing our homesteads.
The recent African revolutions (or coups, depending on your view) have been a long time int he making. They are a hallmark of a fast-changing world.
WeWork's bonds are crashing, and we explain what that means and why inflation is MUCH higher than advertised and likely to stay that way. Everyone needs to prepare their budgets and portfolios for a long reign of punishing inflation.
Join Dane and other members around the virtual campfire on August 10th, as we share our tales, triumphs, and trials within the Peak Prosperity tribe. Let's weave together the tapestry of our shared experiences and forge deeper connections.
"Down. We're going down. It's a powder keg. I just know too much of a history of the decline of empires. It's just too easy to watch of nations usually decline slowly over time. And this is when they fall from the inside out." John Lovell
John Lovell and I discuss his latest book, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well. I really bonded with John’s message because it invites us, especially men, to dig deeper and ask “what’s this all about?” The conclusions he draws are the same that I’ve come to in my own […]
Imagine what it must be like for those on Team Oligarchy...I honestly don't think they have enough narrative suppression squads to keep a lid on things any longer.
The lies are being exposed. Common knowledge is on the way!
If you are thinking to yourself that "finance and economics aren't my thing" I would urgently suggest that they really should become a priority. The reasons are many...
