November 15, 2025 | Trading Desk Notes for November 15, 2025

Too much leverage? A couple of weeks ago, I wrote that “too much leverage in the market’s Achilles heel.” Google AI defines Achilles heel as: “a metaphor for a fatal weakness or vulnerability in an otherwise strong person or thing.”   I’ve traded futures and options for nearly fifty years. It’s a venue that offers exceptional opportunities for […]

November 15, 2025 | AI & The Great Displacement?

  QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, there are a lot of people who seem to take your track record and pretend that they have made calls on all sorts of things but lack the data or the computer to back up their claims. They then run some infomercial and go on an on before they tell you what […]

November 14, 2025 | Quantum Computing: The “Next AI” For Investors?

Quantum computing is back in the spotlight this week, with earnings from pure‑play companies and new breakthroughs from IBM. But can it truly capture the same investment excitement as artificial intelligence, or will volatility and technical hurdles slow its rise? Artificial intelligence has dominated markets in recent years, moving rapidly from research labs into everyday […]

November 13, 2025 | Plastic Recycling is a Scam. We Need To Fix That,

Solving plastic pollution is near the top of today’s to-do list. Have We Finally Solved The Plastic Problem? What if every piece of plastic waste, like bottles, bags, even clothes, could be rebuilt from scratch, no sorting required? Not just melted and reshaped, but broken down to pure chemical building blocks and made new again. That’s […]

Shocking power bills await as AI expands.

November 13, 2025 | China Limits America’s Ability to Purchase Rare Earth Minerals

Over 90% of rare earth global production occurs in China. The materials are needed for absolutely everything, namely the production of military equipment, which is why China has imposed new restrictions to prevent the United States from military expansion. China is preparing to implement a “validated end-user” (VEU) system to forbid any corporation with ties […]

November 12, 2025 | The 50-Year Mortgage – YOU WILL OWN NOTHING

Between 15-year car loans and 50-year mortgages, the globalist world order of YOU WILL OWN NOTHING is closer to reality than the majority realizes. The premise of a 50-year loan is absolutely absurd. The average age for a first-time home buyer in the US is now 40. People will live in indefinite debt, settling for […]

November 11, 2025 | The Tariff “Dividend”

  President Donald Trump has proposed a $2,000 tariff “dividend” to every American. Reminiscent of the stimulus checks provided during COVID-19, the payment comes at a time of low public confidence in government and government policy. Tariffs generated $151 billion between April and October, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Treasury Secretary […]

November 10, 2025 | “Helping” People into Lifelong Debt

Mortgage rates are lower than they were a year ago, and home prices have fallen in many areas. Still, home affordability remains the worst in decades (US ratio below since 2009). The culprits are high prices and operating costs, which skyrocketed in the aftermath of the pandemic. The median US home price (402K in Q1 […]

November 9, 2025 | If AI Is in a Bubble, It WILL Pop

[ My friend Doug Behnfield, a wealth manager and senior vice president at Morgan Stanley in Boulder, has contributed many commentaries to Rick’s Picks over the years. Below is the Q3 report he sent out to clients several weeks ago. Like many observers, he is troubled by the enormous concentration of investment capital in the AI space. Can the […]

November 9, 2025 | Health Prepping: A Future to be Avoided at All Costs

A few months ago, I put a pistol (Sig Sauer P320 for the gun people out there) on a bedside table to remind me to clean it. But I didn’t get to it right away. And then one day it was gone. After a frantic hour spent checking every possible part of the floor and […]

November 8, 2025 | Trading Desk Notes for November 8, 2025

Quote of the week: “Hyperscaler cash flow can’t cover the AI capex arms race.” Mike Hartnett, Chief Investment Strategist, Bank of America The S&P and the NAZ gapped higher when markets opened on Sunday afternoon, October 26 (blue ellipse), and both indices reached new record highs on Monday through Thursday that week, but registered their lowest close […]

November 7, 2025 | The BBC Scandal Demonstrates Maybe Bigger than Watergate

  The BBC has shown the world what is really taking place in Mainstream Media and even Wikipedia, which nobody should donate 10 cents to, yet another FAKE NEWS organization edited by the government. We saw it with COVID-19, where the government told social media to cancel people. Others are being debanked because the government […]

“The top 10% of US households now hold 87% of all US stocks owned by households, with the top 1% alone owning 50%. By comparison, the remaining 90% hold just 13%, while the bottom 50% hold only 1%. The wealth gap has never been bigger.” – Kobeissi Letter   Discover more   Social commentary forum […]

November 5, 2025 | Norway to Send $7 Billion to Ukraine – Everyone is Sending Funds Ahead of 2026

Norway is providing Ukraine with an additional $7 billion in 2026, or an astounding 1.23% of GDP. Norwegian Defense Minister Tore O. Sandvik invited Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal to participate for the first time in the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) meeting. The two sides signed a memorandum to establish joint defense manufacturing in Ukraine, […]

November 4, 2025 | Asset Bubbles are Real Life Destructive–Can We Learn To Stop The Madness?

Located on the Gulf coast of Florida, Cape Coral has long been a haven for retirees, speculators and boom-bust real estate cycles.  In the 2002 to 2006 property boom, debt-flush buyers pushed median home prices in the greater Lee County up by 280% in just 4 years. Naturally, this made the area a leading foreclosure center when the bubble burst in 2007. As borrowers defaulted […]

November 3, 2025 | Perched in the Danger Zone

    Most people are worried about missing upside, not downside.  And usually to their detriment.     The chart shows the two-year time period (1990-1992) that I made my biggest profit ever in real estate.  As shown HERE, my net profit was $600,000 – and my ROI was 100%.  Could I do something similar […]

November 2, 2025 | Why the Smart Money Should Spend Some of It Now

Years ago, I received death threats after writing in the San Francisco Examiner that Apple looked like it was about to go under.  That was in 1997, not long after Steve Jobs returned after a 12-year exile. Ironically, he was fired by the man he’d recruited in 1985 to run the show — cue the hisses and boos […]
