December 21st, 2024 | Kids for Cash Documentary

Armstrong Economics -  Joe Biden granted Pennsylvania Judge Michael Conahan clemency. The kids did not receive the same sympathy.

Armstrong Economics - COMMENT: Marty, I don’t know how your computer does it, but it called for high in stocks, gold, and a coming recession. At the WEC, you said rates would decline into 2025, but not dramatically, because of the war. You also said the dollar was not dead. You said Trump would not have clear sailing when […]

Armstrong Economics -   Governments are eager to spend your tax dollars on useless initiatives to save the planet from global warming. The Biden Administration spent BILLIONS on investing in EV infrastructure that never came to fruition. I spoke on how Biden approved of a $7.5 billion spending package to build EV charging stations throughout the nation, but […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Marty, is it possible we are witnessing the greatest financial trap to unsuspecting global citizens as they ‘build a digital prison’ as many opine OR is this the perfect monetary system that will give opportunity to impoverished nations to rise out of the ashes? We see kids, millenials to Gen X, buying it like […]

Armstrong Economics - Canada’s Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned from her federal cabinet position. This may be perhaps the best thing that the Prime Minister has allegedly done for Canada. The fracturing of the left has become a contagion. Freeland shared her resignation letter on social media platform X this Monday. “On Friday, you informed me that you no longer […]

December 16th, 2024 | Food Inflation on the Rise

Armstrong Economics -   Our models do not indicate that food inflation will ease in 2025. In fact, I have repeatedly warned that people may want to stockpile food for the next two years as there will be weather events and supply chain shortages. Our model warns that we may see another severe drought, probably between 2025 to […]

December 15th, 2024 | Pardon for J6 Committee?

Armstrong Economics - Jan. 6 Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) recently stated that he would accept a preemptive pardon from Joe Biden if it were offered to him. Thompson has not been accused of a crime – yet. So, what is he hiding? Thompson believes his committee did a “wonderful job” investigation January 6. Innocent people do not […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: You said the computer does not support a bullish view of Trump taking office. Do you know why the computer is showing so many indexes are rolling over to the downside? John   ANSWER: I strongly suggest that this is the time to pay close attention to Socrates, for this clearly shows that something is seriously […]

December 12th, 2024 | Volkswagen Protests Heat Up

Armstrong Economics - Volkswagen Group CEO Oliver Blume was booed by a crowd of 20,000 employees after stating that the company is not “operating in a fantasy world.” The company already saw 100,000 union members walkout on Monday. “As management we’re not operating in a fantasy world. We are making decisions in a rapidly changing environment,” Blume stated. […]

Armstrong Economics - US-Canada relations under the Trump Administration are beginning on tumultuous footing. Trump has promised to slap Canada with 25% tariffs on ALL imports if it fails to curb illegal immigration and drug trade from the northern border. Trudeau is now threatening to retaliate with tariffs of his own. The Bank of Canada has factored in […]

Armstrong Economics - Many mistakenly look to the stock market as the leading indication of economic security. The true culprit is the DEBT market, not the stock market, that leads to depressions and recessions. A recession, in comparison to a depression, is merely a minor impact that could be isolated to one nation. Unemployment will typically rise up […]

December 8th, 2024 | Korea Political Crisis

Armstrong Economics -     QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, I first want to thank you for your forecast on South Korea, which you delivered here in Asia. I understand this is the computer. Others would call you a seer. I wonder if you have time to update that forecast since we are as divided here in South Korea as […]

Armstrong Economics - The Third Wave of Canada ended in 2022, and we have begun the Fourth Wave, leading to more authoritarianism, and the Trudeau government seeks to retain power. But this immediate 8.6-year wave reaches its peak in 2026.59. There is no question that the centralized government of Trudeau recognizes that the end is near. They are […]

Armstrong Economics - Tens of thousands of Volkswagen employees have halted production to protest proposed pay cuts. The German automaker has stated it will need to close three manufacturing plants due to rising labor expenses, material shortages, and, most importantly – the climate change agenda that has demonized fossil fuels. Over 120,000 workers now face a 10% pay […]

December 5th, 2024 | Bitcoin & the End of Money

Armstrong Economics -   QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, I just had to write in to say thank you for explaining that Bitcoin was just a trading asset, not some new currency that would replace the dollar. I understand that money must be elastic to grow with society in economic booms and population. I just read a quote reported by […]

Armstrong Economics -   Nippon Steel, a Japanese company, has offered to buy US Steel for $14.9 billion, yet both President Joe Biden and president-elect Donald Trump strongly oppose the deal. Both men believe it is vital to keep the historic company domestic. But why has America’s steel industry become less competitive? Demand for steel fell 0.4% YoY […]

December 3rd, 2024 | California’s Energy Surplus

Armstrong Economics -   Californians pay a fixed rate for their energy grid, but the state has been harvesting a surplus to the point that operators are forced to offload the energy to neighboring states that purchase it at a discount or even receive it free of cost. Governor Gavin Newsom praised California for advancing its energy storage […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Biden said he would not pardon Hunter, and then he did. Was this not a slap in the face to the Democratic Party that will contribute to its breakup, as you have warned? JM ANSWER: It is worse than you think. This could backfire, for it was not a pardon for Hunter as much as it […]

Armstrong Economics - I have warned that there will be an exodus of migrants fleeing the United States for Canada in the wake of Trump’s presidency. The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada said that the sheer volume of asylum seekers has spiked to the highest on record, with the number of cases rising from 60,000 annually to […]

Armstrong Economics -   Mexico’s new President Claudia Sheinbaum is asking Trump to use a bit more common sense when threatening to implement tariffs before a tit-for-tat game ensues. “One tariff would be followed by another in response, and so on until we put at risk common businesses,” Sheinbaum said. It would come as no surprise if the […]

Armstrong Economics -   Donald Trump wants to ensure that America’s neighbors to the north and south help him fight the migrant crisis, announcing that he will punish both Canada and Mexico with a 25% tariff on goods until migrants stop crossing into America from their lands. Justin Trudeau reportedly called Donald Trump within two hours of his […]

Armstrong Economics - Governments are enacting subtle regulations over crypto. Texas has come out to demand that crypto miners report their power usage to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). The state claims they need this information to regulate its volatile power grid. Public Utilities Commission of Texas (PUCT) Chairman Thomas Gleeson stated that miners must provide […]

November 25th, 2024 | Keystone XL Pipeline Revival?

Armstrong Economics -   Do you recall when America was energy independent? One must only think back a few short years before Joe Biden entered the White House and suppressed the nation’s ability to generate energy in the name of climate change. There were increased regulatory burdens, halts on new oil and gas leases, and a shift to […]

Armstrong Economics -   The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has been criminalizing airline passengers since the Patriot Act gave them the permission to treat everyone as a suspected terrorist. The Justice Department has finally suspended the DEA from most passenger searches after an investigation revealed that the DEA was perhaps violating the Constitution with illegal and warrantless searches. […]

Armstrong Economics - The skies are darkening over Europe’s economy and politics, all thanks to their determination to wage war against Russia. The euro is plummeting to its lowest level in two years. Will the Euro stop at 85 cents in the year ahead? European leaders know that the Eurozone is crumbling, and instead of reform, they have […]
