Finance U: Fed Cuts Rates with Stock and Home Prices at ATHs!

The "apolitical" Fed cut rates by an emergency amount just 6 weeks before a major and contentious election thereby rewarding incumbents. As always, they did this even though it will reward existing asset owners and punish the young who are starting out in life. It's just who they are, to their bones.

Russia’s Red Line Has Been Breached by NATO Missiles

Between weaponizing electronic devices and last night's long-range missile attack deep into Russia, "somebody" is quite keen to get WW III started. I think they've achieved that. It's time to prepare everyone.

Will Retaliation be the Spark that Ignites the Middle East?

Israel's very clever strike against Hezbollah will cause a retaliation. One that could easily send things spiraling out of control.

Trump’s Poor Security and the Even Worse Anti-Trump Speech

The second Trump assassination attempt is proving to be as revealing and instructive as the first one.  For some reason it's HARD to protect Trump properly. The DNC is responsible for fanning the social flames that have brought us to these attempts, but they seem unable to do much more than DARVO and (perversely) blame Trump.

NATO and Blinken and Russia, and More on the Second Assassination Attempt

The US (Blinken) and NATO are threatening to target their weapons deep into Russia. Russia is reminding the world that this means war and war would be a potentially devastating outcome. There are no adults in charge in the West, so this is an all-too-real possibility. And more on the Trump shooter. Not that one, the new one.

A(nother) New High For Gold, Interest Rates Fall – Along With The Buck

Glorious Gold broke out to another new all-time high this week, rising 86.10 (+3.41%) to 2610.70. Perhaps this is related to the US deciding how deeply they will let the US "contractors" strike targets inside Russia.

Mike Maloney: These are the Most Overvalued “Markets” in History

Would it be foolish to think 'this time is different?' Of course! It's never different. There has to be a balance between claims on the economy and the real economy's outputs. Today those are historically stretched beyond recovery. It's time to plant a garden - or start a farm!

Finance U: Our Economic Future Hangs In The Balance

Paul and I discuss a few of the major economic topics that were evaded and avoided during the Trump-Harris debate. We deserve a discussion and some answers because of the gravity of the situation.

Underwhelmed by Trump’s Lack of Focus (and ABC’s Bias)

Putting the Biden/Harris policy failures under a bright national spotlight would have been dead simple for any prepared debater. Trump did not do this, so I have to assume he failed to (1) spot the trap he was walking into and (2) did not prepare.

The Treasury Department Sends Out a Stern Warning

The fiscal situation of the US government is a train wreck in motion. The debt levels will crush the country at some point. Why isn't either party talking about this? I think we all know why...

Springfield Ohio and the Haitian Migrant Crisis

Haitian migrants have swamped the city of Springfield Ohio and it's the taxpaying, contributing people of that city who are paying the price, of course.

It’s Disability Friday And The Correction Has Begun

September is here, and I suspect the (long-awaited) correction is now underway. While disability in the workforce is falling, disability in the overall population is continuing to rise and it looks like the Great Replacement Conspiracy Theory is now Conspiracy Fact.

The Coming Real Estate Tax and Energy Crises

Be sure to discuss muni bonds with your financial adviser because there's a huge systemic problem lurking there, thanks to Mitch Vexler's astonishing work. The only way to possibly fix that is with huge economic growth. Which leads us to stalling US oil output that will not grow at these too-low prices.

Massive Property Tax Fraud Revealed

Do you pay property taxes? Do you rent? In either case you've been ripped off by local taxing authorities who have been running a widespread but illegal operation that has systematically overvalued properties for the purpose of fraudulently collecting higher taxes. Their motivation? Their paychecks, presumably, but that's just a guess. It could be more than that.

If Successful, This Will Mark The End Of The Republic (And Prosperity)

Free speech isn't a nice-to-have.  It is the cornerstone of democracy. Which means it's essential for freedom, and therefore prosperity too. Free speech is currently under powerful attacks from people who are either malignant or ignorant. Either way, not healthy actors within the body politic.
