I'm predicting the DJIA rising 10% by Summer. Mark it down.

Up for the week last week, down 1900 for year. Big whoop. And yet you're getting a recession out of that?

Oh yea.

I hope you are right, but fear you are MAGA and wrong.

No Recession . But almost certainly a Depression .

Dow to 20--25000 , as I mentioned here a month ago.

Everything looks worse in terms of fundamentals and you should contemplate the Commercial Property sector collapsing already .
Once that sector and real estate in general falls badly you can look toward Bank bankruptcies / failures .
Then panic sets in .
The pack of cards collapses .

Gold has started to move big time -- over 3300 last night ( GMT) . 2800+ not so long ago .
This can still make you the biggest profit ever but you need to be "In " right now .
Both Silver and Platinum will soon follow suit and particularly the former which should be minimum $50 rather than present $33. It is 100% being held for the moment, to give the "in crowd" time to sort themselves out .

IF we move from the present Debt system to a twin backed metals standard , the forecasts of Gold and Silver at astronomic heights will come true .
That is Silver at 500 + and Gold at ca.40 000 using the typical historical ratio between them .

Before you laugh , remember Cryptos and specifically BTS .

It's BOOM time . BOOM BOOM .
But imho .

In front of a long holiday weekend....not a good sign.

But selfishly perhaps , the greater the reset, the greater the future profit opportunities .
If we do move to a major recession , or worse , there will be huge profits from almost every sector when buying at the bottom .
Naturally one does not wish disaster on others , but anybody not pared down already to precious metals plus cash is asking for trouble . Dicing with likely disaster .

Certainly no equities other than those bought with special and perhaps privileged insider knowledge .

The signs have been there for at least the last year and ignoring them is surely stupid .

This is a personal view but it comes from daily monitoring and reading a considerable cross section of supposed top commentators and experts .

Agree. We don't wish harm on others but on the other hand it's a jungle out there, it's every man and woman for himself in this world, we are all responsible for our own decisions in life. Those that think for themselves and don't follow the crowd often have an advantage.

70 countries have envoys in DC right now to discuss tariffs. Trump did that.

Hilarious

Where did you get that lie from.

China isn't going to approach the US for a deal. They are working with the rest of the world.

Sooner or later Republicans are going to force Trump to grovel to China.

China is working to export more to the rest of the world?
Why would the rest of the world want to buy more than they already do?

Because China will buy from them.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Because China will buy from them.

China will buy an extra $140 billion or so from them and they will buy an extra $440 billion or so from China?

 

[pknopp]

China will buy an extra $140 billion or so from them and they will buy an extra $440 billion or so from China?

China doesn't look at things that way. They take the long term view.

Long-term, how do they export an extra $440 billion this year?

Because China will buy from them.

Because China will build infrastructure and offer aid.


Like we used to do when we where exceptional.

Now we’re just greedy turds.
