August 24, 2024 | Trading Desk Notes for August 24, 2024

Powell says the time has come to begin cutting interest rates Markets were expecting Powell to announce that it was “time” to start cutting rates (to lessen the downside risks to employment – the other leg of the Fed’s dual mandate), but the “unequivocally dovish” tone of his Jackson Hole announcement surprised markets.   Small caps […]

August 23, 2024 | RFK Endorses Trump & Will Join His Cabinet

  COMMENT: Congratulations. You are the only one who has been pushing this for months. What position will he take in Trump’s Cabinet? FK ANSWER: I want to thank everyone for all of their support. I may have been the first behind this issue. But this is not merely because I said so. RFK was only 6 […]

August 23, 2024 | A Trump or Harris Win Could Lead To Very Different Outcomes

The U.S. election is less than 80 days away. The race is a dead heat, but only one of them will win and the impact on markets and the economy may be very different depending on who wins control of the White House, the House of Representatives and the Senate. Will a Trump or Harris […]

August 22, 2024 | Inflation in One Lesson

  The high cost of living is the #1 financial problem for Americans today – and Milton Friedman’s explanation for inflation is probably close to the mark. In this 39 second video, Friedman claims that too much government spending and too much govt money creation is what causes inflation. “Consumers don’t produce inflation. Producers don’t produce […]

August 21, 2024 | The Propaganda Behind Crypto

  Now all we hear is how banks are suddenly investing in things like BITCOIN. The propaganda is just stunning, for it has once again proven that Julius Caesar was right more than 2000 years ago, and nothing has ever changed. Things like BITCOIN are a religion, and that is the problem. It would be […]

August 20, 2024 | Where You Store It: Don’t Trust, and Definitely Verify

When negotiating with the Soviet Union, Ronald Reagan’s oft-repeated slogan was “Trust, but verify.” Something similar applies to the world of precious metals, especially remote storage firms. But let’s go even further to: Don’t trust, and always verify. Here’s an example of why: A San Diego couple thought they’d invested in gold. Instead, they and hundreds of others […]

August 19, 2024 | Kamala’s Economic Plan Will Destroy the US Economy & Lead to Food Shortages

    Kamala Harris’ father was basically a radial communist. She is not far from her father’s ideas, any more than Bill Gates is different from his father’s fears of population when he created Planned Parenthood and stuck them in minority areas to reduce the population of blacks. No matter how many times Socialism has […]

August 18, 2024 | Is Copper a Broken Story — Or Better Than Ever?

After a nice run in the first half of this year, copper suffered a serious correction, leading some to wonder if this story is broken: A recent post by commodities analyst Rick Mills answers that question. Here’s an excerpt from the (much longer) article: Benchmark Mineral Intelligence (BMI) forecasts global copper consumption to grow 3.5% to 28 million […]

August 17, 2024 | The Second Great Depression?

  The coming economic collapse will not resemble the Great Depression. Yes, we are in a recession – but it will not be reminiscent of the Great Depression that began in 1929. For you see, the landscape is entirely different now. America was transitioning from an economy based on agriculture to industrialization. About 40% of […]

August 16, 2024 | Inflation Will Be Sticky and Keep Interest Rates Up

U.S. consumer inflation has returned to normal. This week’s 2.9 percent year-over-year gain for the CPI is not low in the historical context. Expectations for more good news on inflation are unrealistic outside of recession. And interest rates will not come down enough to satisfy both equity investors and highly indebted borrowers. In the chart […]

  Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been shunned from the 2024 US Presidential race since he first announced his decision to run.

Obviously, Kennedy meets the requirement of […]

August 13, 2024 | When the Democrats Say They Are Defending Democracy They Mean the Opposite

  All we heard was they were defending Democracy by trying to keep Trump off the ballot and RFK, and they orchestrated a host of criminal actions against Trump, all by hand-picked Democratic prosecutors. Then I reported from the very beginning that Biden would step down after the Republican Convention and the scheme was to DENY the […]
