Friday May 26, 2017 - It's Better to Buy Gold And Silver When It DOESN'T Feel Good

Updated Sections: Bank & Financials (yields), Uranium shares , Crude Oil

The "Cancer" That's Spreading Across Canada: The country’s massive housing bubble is starting to unravel and the Canada’s banking system will soon be put to the test. Housing prices in Canada’s biggest cities have skyrocketed in a short period of time: it was too much, too fast and too high. A bubble in every sense of the word. And like every bubble (Crypto-currencies) before it, it’s going to end in catastrophe.

Like Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal is also in a major housing bubble. Last March, housing prices in Toronto jumped 6.2%. That’s the biggest one-month jump on record. Local housing prices are now surging almost 30% per year. This is making it nearly impossible for everyday people to buy a home there. In fact, the average home in Toronto is now selling for just under C$1 million. That’s about three times more than the typical Toronto family can afford. Worst of all, Toronto’s housing bubble is now spreading like cancer. According to Fox Business, housing prices in the city of Hamilton, 42 miles west of Toronto, rose 30% in March. They surged 32% in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, which is 66 miles west of Toronto. And they jumped 43% in Barrie, which is 68 miles west of Toronto.

Important Fundamentals:

The lack of free cash flow yield was one of the reasons the gold mining sector was unable to perform when gold prices were closer to $1900 because they were investing so much of their revenue and indeed borrowing against it to fund new supply. That all changed when prices declined. Investment was cancelled and a major process of rationalization ensued. The result is that the gold mining sector generally has sounder balance sheets today than when prices for their products were considerably higher. Imagine what will happen once the price of Gold & Silver spikes up...
The banking world is DOOMED! There are many people out there who are working on payment systems and delivery systems that could turn the banking world on its head much like Uber has done to taxis, expedia has done to travel and airbnb has done to hotels.

Peter Schiff is again confirming our point of view. Trump intends to exchange Taxation for Inflation...the end result however will be the same.

Important Fundamentals:

Together with the trend change of the US-Dollar the Yuan will impact world financial markets in a big way. Offshore Yuan tumbled as Moody's cut China's credit rating to A1 from Aa3, saying that the outlook for the country’s financial strength will worsen, with debt rising and economic growth slowing. This leaves the world's hoped-for reflation engine rated below Estonia, Qatar, and South Korea and on par with Slovakia and Japan. Interesting is the Points and Figure chart for the Yuan. We have a HUGE distribution-Top formation followed by a breakdown of the Yuan, followed by a pull back (positive backtest) and a fresh down leg.
The Yuan will be a major game changer. No doubt this happening will have a deep impact on the world financial markets: dollar, gold, silver, stocks,...

Important Technicals:

Stop loss and BEAR TREND !The Yuan has fallen out of its TRADING ZONE...Chinese are starting a FIERCE BATTLE with Trump and will not willingly let the production go back to the USA. Few investors seem to understand this is a GAME CHANGER!

He passed away in Switzerland and will be buried in MONACO where he emigrated to years ago. Today Monaco, Andorra,...may not be the best choice. There are however still excellent countries one can emigrate to. Important is that it all still can be done in a legal way.

A Quarter Of American Adults Can't Pay All Their Monthly Bills; 44% Have Less Than $400 In Cash. If you have $10 in your wallet you have more money than most of the Americans (no joke). Nearly eight years into an economic recovery, nearly half of Americans didn't have enough cash available to cover a $400 emergency. Specifically, 44% of said they wouldn't be able to cover an unexpected $400 expense like a car repair or medical bill, or would have to borrow money or sell something to meet it.

Of the group that could not pay in cash, 45% said they would go further in debt and use a credit card to pay off the expense over time. while a quarter would borrow from friends of family, and another 27% just couldn't pay the expense. Others would turn to selling items or using a payday loan.

Monday May 22, 2017 - As long as Central Banks and Banks create Fiat Money out of Thin Air...

Updated Sections: World Stock Market Indexes (short candles) , Indexes expressed in Gold (real money),

As long as Central Banks print the money and use it to buy stocks....markets will go up.The Bank of Japan (BoJ) is a Top 10 holder in 90% of Japanese stocks. Last year the BoJ was the biggest buyer of Japanese stocks in 2016. And now the BoJ is stepping up its buying (up over 70% YoY) entering the market on down days more than half the time in the last four years.

As long as Central Banks print money, they will continue to rig the Gold & Silver price. Time and time again we are seeing fraud taking place in the precious metals' market. Thousands of tonnes of paper silver and paper gold are being dumped over just a few hours or days. For anyone who doesn't understand what is happening, let me categorically state that this has nothing to do with the real physical market in gold and silver. No, this is blatant manipulation by governments and bullion banks as well as speculators.

The short sellers, mainly bullion banks and futures traders, will fail since they can't fulfill their contract and the buyers will receive no gold. The market then becomes a physical market with price being determined by the holders of physical gold. Economic power will then follow the same route as we have seen physical gold traveling the last 10-15 years. The Silk Road countries such as China, India and Russia will then gradually dominate the financial system with their gold and their currencies. E von G.

xxxxx Revenue of $55 million, a 19% increase over Q1 2016 ($47 million). Q1 2017 EBITDA of $14 million, a 39% increase over Q1 2016 ($10 million). Completion of Recapitalization transactions on April 19, 2017 - xxxxx produced 23,100 ounces of gold in Q1 2017 at a cash cost of $735 per ounce. xxxxx produced 23,115 ounces of gold in Q1 2017 at a cash cost of $816 per ounce. Q1 2017 consolidated cash costs of $776 per ounce 47,673 ounces of gold were sold at an average price of $1,158 per ounce. Chinese hold 12% of the stock. Our opinion: Share is leveraged by debt and low price of gold. Makes little sense to sell out the position at these levels...better ride out the African storm.

Friday May 19, 2017 - A Bull Trap and Quadruple top for the US-Dollar we have!

Updated Sections: $-Gold, Silver , US-Dollar, €-Gold & €/$ ,

It was high time for a correction, wasn't it!? Markets were OVERBOUGHT and we finally have the correction we warned for during the past weeks. Add to this that this year 'sell in May and stay away' (until the fall) is what intelligent investors will do before adding to their positions. Stock markets are taking a battering on Thursday after the biggest Dow Jones selloff in eight months a day earlier. The Dow Jones industrial average closed 373 points lower, down 1.78 percent. The S&P 500 declined by 1.8 percent, while financials dropped 3.1 percent to lead decliners. The Dow and the S&P also recorded their worst day since September of last year, giving up their gains for the month.

The US dollar index dropped to the lowest level since November and forced investors to look for safe heavens, dragging benchmark Treasury yields to about 2.21 percent and boosting both the Japanese yen and gold by two percent.

Thursday May 18, 2017 - German Authorities Confiscating Homes to use for Migrants

Updated Sections:

Real Estate in Germany?! This is a deja vu of Doctor Jhivago. Genuine COMMUNISM IT IS ! Germany Confiscating Homes to Use for Migrants. "A massive attack on the property rights" . In an unprecedented move, Hamburg authorities confiscated six residential units in the Hamm district near the city center. A trustee appointed by the city is now renovating the properties and will rent them — against the will of the owner — to tenants chosen by the city. District spokeswoman Sorina Weiland said that all renovation costs will be billed to the owner of the properties. Similar expropriation measures have been proposed in Berlin, the German capital, but abandoned because they were deemed unconstitutional.

Some Germans are asking what is next: Will authorities now limit the maximum amount of living space per person, and force those with large apartments to share them with strangers? Same questions and plans for Belgium and The Netherlands. Civilians are trained, brainwashed to live in a Communist System (read in POVERTY).

The unelected EU-technocrats are bullying the UK ...Socialist Europe (EU) is the subtle expression of Communism. I really think most people have not understood this yet. They don't have a clue that the Bolshevik revolution happened without a bang....they call is liberalism. The EU-leaders don't hide the fact that they don't allow COMMERCIAL deals (free market agreements) without a Political Blessing.

In Cuba until 1990 100% of the work force was employed by government. Today Cuba has 27% of independent Entrepreneurs which are doing well and a growing Middle Class. In France 60% of the Gross Domestic Product is generated by the Government and a lot of French people are employed by the Government....The result is that each day the country is sliding deeper and deeper in a depression.

When in 1989 the USSR went bankrupt , Cuba's social system went down the drain (like Europe's social system will when the EU goes bankrupt). In Cuba in 1990 all the money of the others (USSR) was spend and the country entered a deep economic depression. The price of many products skyrocketed....all of a sudden Cuba was confronted with the reality of life...like Venezuela is today. madura

A WET DREAM of all Socialists, Greens and Communists on planet Earth: one of the world's biggest crude oil producers actually has to import crude oil.... Protests have crippled Venezuela for over a month, and the economy continues to deteriorate. There are growing signs that the economic calamity could accelerate the supply disruptions from Venezuela. According to Reuters, three of Venezuela's four refineries are operating at record low levels, due to malfunction and the lack of parts to fix them. The Paraguana Refinery, for example, is only producing 409,000 bpd, or just 43 percent of its capacity. The outages have led to gasoline shortages and forced Venezuela to step up imports.

Important Fundamentals:

xxxx prices rise further. A series of investment banks see further price gains coming soon. BNP Paribas expects prices to rise back to levels seen earlier this year – mid- to upper-$50s for Brent. Goldman Sachs reiterated its call for Brent to rise to $57 per barrel in the third quarter. After hedge funds and other money managers liquidated their bullish positions over the past month, there is room for oil on the upside. Moreover, with OPEC nearly locked in for 9 more months of restrained output, the downside risk has been substantially reduced. China will continue to import more oil and gas.
India's xxxx imports in April more than doubled from a year ago to 75 tonnes on strong demand during a festival that prompts purchases and as jewellers stocked up ahead of a new national sales tax, provisional data from consultancy GFMS showed.
Options buyers lose money on 7 of every 10 trades. They place high-risk trades, hoping for a big payout.

Wednesday May 17, 2017 - Did you know that Central Banks are also buying shares?

Updated Sections: World Stock Market Indexes,

Central banks buy stocks because they ran out of bonds to buy. Once they bought that many bonds that interest rates fell to and below zero, they simply can't buy any more....so to keep increasing the Money Supply (QE = quantitative easing) they have to buy Shares.

The US debt load amounts currently to $828,000 per family and keeps growing...

This is also QE = quantitative easing : The Bank of Japan is the largest owner of 55 co's. The Swiss Central bank ownership of stocks rose by 40%: it nowadays owns bn $500 worth of equities in markets all over the world. It is estimated that Central Banks have bought so far this year ONE TRILLION DOLLAR worth of Stocks. That is $ 3.6 trillion per annum. Both the FED and the CEB are buying stocks of American and European companies.

The next Stock Market Correction/Crash is not going to affect the Hedge Funds, Banks, Commercial Banks, Mutual Funds but also the Central Banks.

As long as Central Banks feed the Financial Markets with freshly printed money, these will continue to go up....even as we enter Hyperinflation. As a matter of fact, during times of Hyperinflation, along with Gold and Silver, Stocks are often used to store "Purchasing Power".

Important Fundamentals:

In anticipation of future competition, changing market dynamics in Europe, the limited success of xxxxxx pivoting to China, and the phasing out of long-term contracts, xxxxx has followed through with a strategy of doubling down on Europe and securing its future market share by launching Nord Stream 2 and Turkish Stream. In doing so, the Russian gas giant is enacting a “pincer” strategy aimed at eliminating the need for the gas to transit through Ukraine. This would remove the transit risk based on political quarrels between Russia and Ukraine.Russia’s ambition to export gas to China seems to be a pipe dream for the moment. Although having signed a largely political agreement, Beijing has not committed to any concrete terms as it pressures Russia on accepting a much lower-than-requested export price. ...more in the subscrber's section

Tuesday May 16, 2017 - What will happen when Central Banks loose control and how is the medical care in Panama?

Updated Sections:

Medical care in Panama: American quality at low cost.

Panama has a very good healthcare system and is very inexpensive compared to North America and Europe. Panama has several local insurance companies
providing medical insurance coverage for as low as $35 a month. There are healthcare insurance plans covering up to 80% to 100% of the surgery, hospitalization, medicines, and therapy.

Panama health care costs are half that of the United States and more foreigners are taking notice. Panama City has many good dental clinics and four large hospitals which are affiliated with respectable U.S. medical hospitals and offer first class equipment and facilities.

Regular medical care, all types of surgery, hospitalization, and minor & major dental care in Panama cost less than half as in the Europe or the U.S. For example, a MRI costs $900 in Panama while costing $2,000 in the U.S...click here for more

What will happen when Central Banks loose control? Will the IMF , the BIS be able to stop the hemorrhage? If it all comes at a time of Hyperinflation I expect not even the IMF may be able to stop the system implosion. Better be prepared as I expect the Central Banks and Banks to LEGALLY STEAL/SIZE part of the deposits at a certain point in the near future (see Operation Gutt in the Education Hall)

Central Banks are currently buying Common Stocks and the share position of The Swiss National Bank and Bank of Japan has become an important one...If at a certain point these Central banks are forced to dump their shares, we'll live more than a bloodbath.

Its products include the full range of health insurance, including dental and pharmacy benefits, from HMO and POS to PPO and indemnity, as well as group insurance products such as life, disability and long-term care insurance.
xxxxxxxxx is to pay $52m in order to lift its stake in the 76,000 ounce per year Ity mine to 80% from its current holding of 55% following agreement with Côte d’Ivoire state-owned mining firm, SODEMI. In addition to the one-off payment, xxxxxxx will also pay SODEMI $5 per ounce of additional reserves added to the mine after December 31.
xxxxx is in the early stages of a blow-off top as the above chart shows. The blow-off began the other day when xxxxx broke out to the upside of its rising trend channel. There’s no saying how high that blow-off will reach, but I think it still has at least several months to go.
My expectation is that the backbone of cryptos – blockchain distributed ledgers – have a future, but I question the long-term outlook for cryptos.

Monday May 15, 2017 - In the end Currencies ALWAYS become worthless, DEBT however ALWAYS stays!

Updated Sections: Gold Objectives ,

The Monetary System explained: it is a Ponzi scheme organized and run by Central Banks (with the help of Governments). History tells us that Governments & Central Banks always run the scheme to the bitter end. Until there is a REVOLUTION or a War....They simply are not given another option. Fiat Currencies last in average 50 years. In the end the Currency becomes worthless....the DEBT however stays!

The end of "Retailing" like we know it...or one of the major changes in Shopping brought by "Internet". The change is facilitated by Green Movements (the religion Global Warming) and is terminating the Middle Class. Retail Stores are going bankrupt at a record pace. Internet shopping is about to become the 'standard' and is also turning upside down the TRANSPORTATION Section (Logistics) and creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs.

Important Fundamentals:

xxxxxx, the online retail giant is making a major push into furniture and appliances, including building at least four massive warehouses focused on fulfilling and delivering bulky items, according to people familiar with xxxxxx’s plans. With that move, the Seattle-based retailer is taking on the two companies that dominate online furniture sales— Wayfair Inc. W -5.95% and Pottery Barn owner Williams-Sonoma Inc. Furniture is one of the fastest-growing segments of U.S. online retail, growing 18% in 2015, second only to groceries. About 15% of the $70 billion U.S. furniture market has already moved online.
Free returns and secure transactions make online shopping risk free and painless from the perspective of consumers.xxxxx is employing that strategy in an increasing number of sectors but most particularly in furniture and fashion. The number of brands xxxxxxx now carries as well as sporting its own designs represent not only a direct threat to Williams Sonoma but to departments stores generally.

Important Technicals:

Don't we all realize that the Journalists and Financial Media only fill up, try to explain WHY a market rising and/or falling by finding real time topics which most of the time are the "the reason" behind the move!? By doing so, people are mislead....
Supply and Demand is the real engine behind a rise or a fall of a financial instrument. The action can be analyzed and pictured by Technical Analysis. When demand rises, so does the price and when demand falls the price also will. High Frequency Trading, Scalping, Trading, Hedge Funds....can and will affect the 'price' . Such however only has a temporary impact on the 'price'.
Markets move up and down in waves. We call it A-B-C-D waves. In case of an uptrend, A and C are up waves. B and D down waves (corrections). The A wave is smaller than the C wave.

I think every investor and pundit interested in the US Presidential Election cycle has wondered, often out loud as I have, if President Trump would face impeachment proceedings at some point. The possibilities of this happening are the stuff of dreams for media types. Conspiracy theories, illegal actions, presidential lies and especially sex scandals will always have an element of prurient appeal for the public, especially among those who don’t have a good book to read. D.F.

Crypto-currencies are not FIAT MONEY and are not GOLD...Cryto-currencies are "bloody dangerous" ! Bitfinex, the world's largest, Hong-Kong based cryptocurrency exchange, is headed for a Mt. Gox-style collapse?! When Mt. Gox first halted customer withdrawals in February 2014, it waited more than two weeks to admit the truth to its customers: that hackers had stolen more than $450 million of their assets, leaving the exchange bankrupt and them holding the bag. That hack effectively crippled the entire digital currency ecosystem, ushering in a two-year bear market that at one point carried the bitcoin price below $200, from what was then a record high north of $1,200 reached in November 2013.

Bitfinex has for weeks now been cut off from sending outbound dollar-denominated wires to its customers. Halting customer withdrawals isn't uncommon in the cryptocurrency world: All three of China's largest exchanges suspended customer withdrawals in February. And last year, Kraken, one of the biggest U.S.-based exchanges, suspended withdrawals temporarily because of a glitch in its trading software. Better think twice before you decide to go for Bitcoins & Co.

Updated Sections: Aussie-Gold & Aussie/$/€ , Swiss-Gold & Swiss/$/€ , Can-Gold & Can$/$/€ ,

So as the automobile sector goes, so goes the economy...I wonder what Yellen will do when she starts to understand this.? The entire U.S. auto industry is unraveling…Toyota’s U.S. sales fell 4.4% last month. Fiat Chrysler’s fell 7%. Honda’s U.S. sales also fell 7%. As a whole, auto industry sales declined 4.7%. April was the fourth straight month that auto industry sales have declined. That hasn't happened since 2009. Investors aren’t used to seeing this. After all, U.S. auto sales have climbed for seven straight years. Last year, the industry sold a record 17.55 million vehicles.

They desperately tried to keep the Automobile sector alive with Hydrogen and Electric cars...The Hydrogen cars are being terminated because the system has no economic value. The Electrical cars will follow. Both the Hydrogen and Electric cars have been made possible because of the Money created out of thin air and fractional Reserve Banking results in MISALLOCATION of Funds. For the same reason over time Wind parks will also fail. Germany and Spain have stopped investing in the sector because not-economic.

The transaction may well have been perfectly timed as market conditions are lining up promisingly for palladium. “Palladium is in a persistent large deficit and the market is tightening and we would expect prices to recover to be in excess of $850 well before year-end,” it said.

But the price trend of the xxxxx has weathered the selling better than one would expect. The xxxxx and its step sum is forming a bull box, but not just yet. A BOX is a consolidation zone and a Distribution or Accumulation zone...if the xxxxx breaks out on the upside, it is an accumulation zone which will push up the index to new record levels. Intelligent Investors are patient and wait until they see which way the xxxxx (and other xxxxx) decide for.

Wednesday May 10, 2017 - The Traitors are loosing the Dirty, Dying War on Gold...just like they did during the 1960's!

Updated Sections:

The War on Gold is suffering from the effects of the Law of Diminishing Returns: it requires more and more price-rigging to move the gold price down less and less. This is because available supplies of physical gold are rapidly disappearing from west to east, where demand is unquenchable.

The Deep State's first strategic objective in the War on Gold has been to steal as much money as possible by conspiratorially rigging its price. They have perpetrated this crime in the full knowledge that it will never be investigated or prosecuted, because it is state sponsored. The Deep State is the state, and never prosecutes itself for its own crimes, no matter how flagrant and egregious they are.

The strategic objective has been to discredit gold as a monetary asset and safe financial haven throughout the west. There are eight primary tactics in the War on Gold. Seven of them are generally known by those who study the gold market; one of them is little known or appreciated. The unknown tactic is actually the most important and effective tactic of all.

The tactics in the War on Gold are:

Randomly and unpredictably attack the gold price in the futures markets, producing large price whipsaws, investor losses, and a generalized spirit of price uncertainty, danger and concern; over time, make existing and prospective investors view the market as a corrupt casino rigged against them, causing them to capitulate and leave the field;
Employ the most advanced, covert "Black Psychological Operations" methods, customized for the financial sector by the CIA's Division of Psychological Warfare, the Fed, the Treasury, the ECB and the BIS, to destroy gold sentiment in the west. As part of this campaign, use the Mainstream Financial Media (MFM) to conduct a continual propaganda campaign denigrating gold in every respect, destroying interest in it;
Fraudulently overstate official holdings to create the illusion of massive supply overhang;
Sterilize investment funds by steering them into non-auditable paper proxies (e.g., ETFs);
Weaken, then destroy the dealer network by killing product demand, spiking dealer costs, demonizing dealers as money launderers and crooks, and wiping out profitability;
Financially weaken miners via crushed prices, making them dependent upon bullion bank financing and debt, and forcing them to comply with bullion bank orders;
Paint phony price charts that enable the "financial services industry" (stock brokers, investment advisers, bankers, etc.) to make gold investing appear stupid, and talk people out of buying gold, particularly in physical form; if this fails, sterilize investment funds by steering them into paper gold;
Create a marketing blackout throughout the west (which is the Achilles' heel).

Due to its hyper-manipulation, gold's price has become a paradox: its weakness actually reflects its strength. With everything that has been thrown at it, it is astounding that its price is still $1200 per oz. The fact that it has been resilient at around $1,200.00 per ounce should concern the manipulators, because if this is as low as they can take it despite their full-spectrum, multi-billion dollar assault against it, then it is defeating them.

By every conceivable, objective financial and monetary measure, gold is one of the most underpriced assets on earth. It is not going to stay that way.

The biggest idiots are those who keep accumulating Real Estate (some with mortgages) in the hope that Renters will keep paying for the properties. Some day these gamblers will wake up with some big hangover. Real Estate is not an investment but a liability. Real Estate investors during the Weimar experienced this first hand when people bought a whole street for only two golden coins. It is a one way BULLISH action and in combination with CREDIT and life threatening operation...more in the subscriber's section

It was the Venezuelan People who elected Chavez, it was the Venezuelan People who elected Maduro, it was the locals who elected Mugabe, it was the Germans who elected Hitler. Is is the FRENCH who elected Macron. Today no Venezuelan, no Zimbabwean, no German had/has the right to complain....like NO French will have the right to complain when tomorrow things get BAD.

It is practically impossible to tell HOW LONG the MADNESS last for and when we shall have hyperinflation and the HERD will wake up. One thing however is sure: if you ain't prepared, you will be late. What is happening ain't a story of flipping a situation by pushing on ENTER. What needs to be done to put you and your loved ones into safety takes easily 24 months. The People, the Herd HATES change and by definition they will always (that is unless they are hungry) keep the existing leaders into place. Epecially when these promise more BREAD and GAMES.

During the 1960's the Central banks, Bullion banks and banks suffered BILLIONS in trying to keep the price of Gold "low". In the end when the situation got out of hand, a Bank Holiday was proclaimed: all Gold transactions were frozen and the price of Gold DOUBLED before it spiked to $850 per oz...see The Gold Pool

The French elections have also been hacked by the Russians: a déja vue!? French citizens have to choose between the assistant of Hollande (who ruined France), and Marine Le Pen who has been painted as a looser by the French (and International Media). Same scenario as in the USA...

Collective suicide! If people elect Macron, the french will get what they are begging for: more depression, more invasion, more poverty, more crime,...and a civil war.

There have never been so many childless politicians leading Europe as today. They know that "everything finishes with them": as in a research report financed by the European Union: "No kids, no problem!". Being a mother or a father, however, means that you have a very real stake in the future of the country you lead. Europe's most important leaders leave no children behind.

Après nous le déluge (Louis XV).

Europe's most important leaders are all childless: British PM Theresa May, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte and the French presidential hopeful Emmanuel Macron, Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven, Luxembourg's Prime Minister Xavier Bettel and Scottish Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon.

Germans took Greece without firing a single round and without sending a single Pantzer. The Final Pillage: Greece to Surrender Gold, Real Estate, Utilities in Exchange for More Debt and Austerity. Germany’s announcement that it will not allow debt relief for the troubled EU nation will force Greece to auction off the last of its assets and sign over its remaining sovereignty to the EU bureaucracy. This newest plan would take all that remains. Italy, Portugal, Spain, France,... could well suffer the same fate. History will tell!

Important is to know that EXPENSIVE ENERGY doesn't allow for complex societies. Even with the advent of alternative sources of energy, one must bear in mind that the final cost of "Energy" will be higher and that because of this it is 100% sure that "Globalism" will fail. As explained in earlier publications, it is only a matter of time before the EU falls apart. [but the Euro will survive !]

China goes nuclear....what about you Uranium-sector investments? China goes nuclear at sea! A nuclear power plant on the sea ensures a continuous supply of water as coolant -- a necessity for any reactor. In April 2016, reports began coming in that China has plans to build floating nuclear power plants in the South China Sea. A floating nuclear power plant consists of one or more nuclear reactors, located on a platform at sea. China apparently plans to "speed up the commercial development" of the South China Sea and views the nuclear power plants as part of that plan.

China's 2016 nuclear plan, a component of the China's 13th five-year plan, is evidently to complete 58 nuclear reactors by 2020 and build another 100 gigawatt-sized reactors by 2030. These would make China the largest nuclear power producer in the world. China's floating nuclear reactor initiative seems to be a component of this nuclear plan...see the section of Uranium shares for more.

Wednesday May 3, 2017 - Profits of Oil co's are better than expected.

Updated Sections:

Neither Clinton nor Trump had any intention of breaking the trend of massive debt expansion. Trump's proposed tax reductions and major infrastructure investments will add over $5 trillion to the debt. But with this expansive policy, there is absolutely no reason why debt in the next four years will grow by less than the 9% annual average.

President Donald Trump is considering breaking up the nation's biggest banks, a vow he had made during the presidential campaign. Bank stocks rallied on the news. Breaking up the big banks would open business opportunities for smaller institutions, while the large Wall Street firms would be worth more as separate entities than they are combined.

"The theory has always been the sum of the parts is worth considerably more than the whole," said analyst Dick Bove, vice president for equity research at Rafferty Capital Markets. "You might find a lot of investors who say that (if) they're going to break up these banks, they're more [valuable] in pieces than they are together, I'm going to buy them." We doubt however that this is correct. Technically speaking, our PF-charts tell us the real story...more in the subscriber's section in the sections for Banks & Financials.

Monday- Tuesday May 1st/2nd, 2017 - Societies disappear because of collective suicide!

Updated Sections: Recession Proof Shares , Real Estate in South Africa , Banks & Financials , Bio-Tech & Pharma ,

Societies disappear because of collective suicide, not because their are invaded and/or exterminated by Barbarians. Over time however, Barbarians always replace the local population or the 3rd and 4th generation.

People don't seem to care that they are slowly but surely invaded by other cultures. As a matter of fact, many applaude the happening because they HOPE the newcomers will pay for their PENSIONS and will take care of them when they become old. The reality is that the newcomers don't give a S...T !

At the same time as the world becomes more Globalized (Communism) and Technologically connected, threats
to our precious freedoms continue to grow. Unfortunately, certain of the major threats and threats/trends are not (yet) widely acknowledged, and therefore, not widely opposed. An extremely DANGEROUS situation!

Bankers used to be your friend, today Banks are YOUR biggest ennemy (this is a reminder of an April article).

They treat you like you are a criminal.
They nickel and dime you and charge you for whatever you need. Even for a bank reference letter.
They operate in a Fractional Reserve way: i.e. they hold only a small fraction (in most cases not more than 1%) of the deposits of their clients. The bulk is lended out...and at risk.
They are in bed with Governments, make sure the Authorities get the taxes they perceive by automatically debiting your account or by blocking it when they think you don't comply.
They screw you in all possible ways: by rigging the price of Gold & Silver, by rigging the interest rates and currencies,...

One of the consequences of the fact that Gold & Silver are RIGGED, is that it freezes the paper and physical holdings of the Gold & Silver investors who are less likely to sell/buy. At the same time, new investors are less likely to initiate positions.

One of the consequences of the fact that Gold & Silver are RIGGED, is that it freezes the paper and physical holdings of the Gold & Silver investors who are less likely to sell/buy. Worse is that it gives THE HERD the false impression that ALL IS WELL MME LA MARQUISE, that everything is under control, that nothing bad will happen, that THE HERD should continue to trust both today's BIGGEST BANDITS: the banks and the authorities...This is an extremely dangerous and potential explosive situation.

Russian foreign reserves at highest level in 28 months. The record high was seen in August 2008, when Russia's reserves stood at $598 billion. By January 2014, they were at $500 billion. The ruble fell after oil prices collapsed in the second half of 2014. Also that year, the United States, European Union, and their allies imposed sanctions against Russia over the conflict in eastern Ukraine.

The Russian central bank spent over $67 billion in a failed attempt to curb a ruble collapse. The Russian currency fell from 35 to 80 against the US dollar on December 16, 2014. In 2015, the government decided to stop propping up the ruble to save the reserves. The central bank free-floated the national currency and focused on replenishing reserves. Russia’s reserves consist of foreign currency, special drawing rights (SDR) holdings, reserve position in the IMF and physical gold.

No government ever tells the people that as a result of their actions, the value of paper money always goes to zero. Since 1913 for example, the dollar/euro has lost a staggering 98% of it purchasing power. And since 1999, the dollar/euro is down 81% in real terms, measured in gold.

note: one really has to be a "retarded" to believe that Paper Money (Bank Notes), and bank deposits have any value at all!
