Global Market Commentary, Analysis and Investments
The new Japan is China. It’s an export economy with too much capacity…like Japan in ’89.
The new Greece is Spain. It’s got mortgage debt up the kazoo…
The new Ireland is the old Ireland. Yes, Ireland is now exporting people again…at the fastest rate since the 19th century.
[Read more...]“America is back,” said the President of all the Americans, “Anyone who tells you America is in decline or that our influence has waned, doesn’t know what they’re talking about.”
Well, Dear Reader, we’re here to tell you: America is in decline.
We can give it to you straight because we’re not running for public office. And if we were elected, we would immediately demand a recount.
[Read more...]Doug: Stating that the US is turning into a police state when you started this conversation was quite accurate. You can see more and more videos spreading over the Internet, not just of police brutality, but demonstrating the militarization and federalization of police, who are being inculcated with both disdain for and paranoia about ordinary citizens.
[Read more...]Louis: Doug, a lot of readers have been asking for guidance on how to know when it’s time to exit center stage and hunker down in some safe place. Few people want to hide from the world in a cabin in the woods while life goes on in the mainstream, but nobody wants to get caught once the gates clang shut on the police state the US is becoming.

[Read more...]The numbers tell us America is in decline… if not outright collapse.
I say “the numbers tell us” because I’ve become very sensitive to the impact this kind of statement has on people.

[Read more...]Don’t expect spending on the pentagon to decrease. Not with our nation’s security at stake. And not with China posing an ever-greater threat.
An article by Yan Xuetong, translated from mandarin, tells “How China can defeat America.” The gist of Mr. Xuetong’s thought is that rising hegemons are a lot nicer than declining ones. Besides that, history is on the side of the rising power.
[Read more...]What a delight it is to have an empire!
Do the Swiss get to send out drones to kill people they don’t know in countries they’ve never been? No! The poor yodelers go around with long faces and visit their shrinks. Americans have troops in 170 countries. Where are the Swiss? Only in Switzerland and the Vatican. Alas, they will never know the joys of nation building and people murdering.
[Read more...]Wall Street suffered its first reversal in eight days yesterday. The Dow dropped a modest 7 points.
For its part, gold rose $1.30 and the dollar fell.
More importantly, the latest news is that inflation rates continue to fall. Producer prices went down 0.8% in the last two months – and the rate of decline is accelerating. It won't be long before the US is in outright deflation – just like Japan.
