Something odd happened late in the day in Wednesday’s trading session, which prompted a number of people to mail in comments or ask a question or two. Since we have discussed this issue previously, we decided this was a good opportunity to briefly elaborate on the topic again in these pages.

A strong ADP jobs report for March was released on Wednesday, and the gold price dutifully declined ahead of it already, while the stock market surged concurrently. Later in the day, the Fed minutes were published, and their tone was definitely seen as very “hawkish”, at least by today’s standards.

There was quite a bit of talk about rate hikes and  – gasp! – even about ending reinvestment of funds the Fed receives when debt securities in its QE portfolio mature. The merry pranksters also bemoaned the egregious bubble their own policies have given birth to.

Internet data mining expert Clif High uses what he calls “predictive linguistics” to spot trends and make predictions for future events. In his latest in-depth report, High sees a “huge” calamity coming for humanity.  Clif High explains, “There is all kinds of data for money and lack of money and lack of funding and all kinds of emotions around this.  There are hints in the data that something huge is coming for August and September that is being exposed by the language now.  I think it’s a bond crash or not a bond crash because I don’t know how that works.  It’s not a stock market crash.  The data I am looking at now says the stock market is not meaningful.  We may lose 50 cents on every dollar in the stock market in just a few days, but it’s meaningless.  It won’t make any difference…

What you are about to see in the video below is the latest working paper from the IMF on how to enslave nations, steal our sovereignty and force a cashless society across the globe.

While all eyes are on WWIII events, the IMF has seized the opportunity to look into the aftermath of war and how to bring about their Orwellian bondage cashless society. Here is just a ‘sliver’ of information that I will expose from the 26-page document they have prepared titled,  “TheMacroeconomicsof De-Cashing.”

“Although some countries most likely will de-cash in a few years, going completely cashless should be phased in steps. The de-cashing process could build on the initial and largely uncontested steps, such as the phasing out of large denomination bills, the placement of ceilings on cash transactions…

More economic indicators are showing the economy is collapsing at an accelerated pace. The job numbers came in and the unemployment rate came down to 4.5% with less people getting jobs and more people losing jobs. The retail industry is a complete disaster, and many retailers are going bankrupt. There is nobody left to purchase treasuries, so the treasury is now the buyer. Traders are worried about volatility and they are purchasing insurance.

Scattered recent analysis has centered upon the Gold Standard and its viability within the global financial system. The topic is certainly very blurred and at times confusing. Consider a recent article by a competent analyst Charles Hugh Smith of the site OfTwoMinds on the practicality of gold used as a standard. The article is entitled “The Problem With Gold-Backed Currencies” (which is found HERE and also on Lew Rockwell site HERE). He makes several points, many good ones. In the Jackass opinion, his analysis avoids many potential solution features, is premature on focus of the currency (and not trade), and is unfortunately backwards in the logic. The main criticism to put on the work is that he confuses the extreme difficulties created from decades of fiat currencies, with the supposed problems of installation of gold-backed currency. The entire article is not well developed, seems sketchy, and misses numerous very…

With all the division in our government, major spying revelations for political purposes, deadlock in the senate, government shutdown being threatened, and a Gdp imbalance between the federal reserve banks we turn to economic strategist Charles Thorngren who just penned a new blog post at Noble Gold Investments entitled, “Bonds, Yield Curves, Recession Oh My!” In it he presents a detailed map, which attempts to show us how to avoid a ‘mega event’, he’s predicting for the US economy… and he has a major announcement.

Former Assistant Treasury Secretary in the Reagan Administration, Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, sees trouble for the economy. Dr. Roberts explains, “This image of a strong stock market is based essentially on debt, borrowing and debt, money creation and debt.  It’s a false signal that shows prosperity, and it’s not really there. . . . So, during a period of time when there has been no interest income on peoples’ savings in the form of bonds or CDs, there has also been no growth in Social Security income.  So, the elderly, or the largest block of them, are hard pressed.  The young come out of school with student debt and no good jobs.  A large percentage can’t find sufficient employment to support an independent existence.  They can’t possibly pay off the loans.  So, wherever you look, you see a debt based system that’s running out of steam.”

Dr. Roberts, who holds…

Last week saw the first new set of signatories join the Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank (AIIB) since the original 57 nations joined on the institution’s inception back in 2015.  And with these 13 new countries buying into China’s alternative to the West’s International Monetary Fund (IMF) bank, a total of 70 countries have recognized the shift that is taking place from West to East in the global financial system.

However these new 13 members are not the only ones suddenly rushing into the AIIB, as an announcement on March 25 shows that 15 more governments have applied to join, which would make the number of countries joining the AIIB equal to nearly half the total number of countries currently recognized in the world.

Fifteen new members will soon join the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which will bring the total number of members to nearly 90, AIIB President Jin…

As we near the day when we must all file for our income taxes realize that your tax dollars are literally being dropped out of planes as you read this – and it is being dropped over 8,000 miles away

Yesterday story broke about the US Dropping 500 Bombs per day week on the city of Mosul, Iraq. At this rate – and we have kept this up for over 15 years now – that is around:

500 X 52 = 26,000 bombs per year

26,000 Bombs X 16 years = 390,000 Bombs.

So what exactly does it cost for one bomb???

Well – the Basic Costs include:

Bomb MK2 – $2,000 + delivery costs plus explosives = $20,000

Cost to operate a carrier group to launch the planes: $8 Billion a year  – or $22 Million per day. That’s about right – not to mention the building costs of…
