February 21, 2021 | Brain Bug

Pandemic puppies. Since Covid changed everything, 12.1 million dogs have been adopted in the US. Historic. Off the charts. In Canada the CKC says inquiries about breeders are up 40% year/year. Dogs selling for $1,500 a year ago are now fetching four grand. Backyard Kijiji breeding has exploded. Sadly. The scammers have emerged. Like “James […]

February 21, 2021 | They Know What You Are (Now They’re Haggling Over the Price)

There’s an old joke about a wealthy man talking to a famous actress. After asking her if she would sleep with a stranger for a million dollars she delivers an enthusiastic, “Yes!” He then inquires if she would do the same for five dollars. Offended, she fumes: “Five dollars? What kind of woman do you think I […]

Gold continues to wallow near its recent low price level, near $1765.  Silver has continued to trend moderately higher – but still has not broken out to the upside.  Many analysts have continued to estimate when and how metals will begin the next wave higher.  My research team and I believe we’ve found some answers […]

February 20, 2021 | The Collapse of California – 2022?

See Peter Santenello’s Video on Facebook – Unfortunately This is the REAL California. They are so far to the left, there is no more rule of law. Why should anyone pay for anything? If everyone went to the store and stole $950, they would bring California’s economy to a dead halt. Perhaps this is what […]

February 20, 2021 | Trading Desk Notes For February 20, 2021

Freeport-McMoRan is up ~600% from last year’s lows. WTI crude oil has jumped over 80% since the November elections. Lumber has quadrupled from last year’s lows, […]

February 19, 2021 | A Commodity Super-Cycle

The price of base metals, especially copper and nickel, are known as indicators of future economic growth. While the validity of that relationship is in doubt, it makes sense that base metals would move higher with an expectation for rapid economic growth. Is the recent surge in these metal prices predicting a robust economy?   […]

February 19, 2021 | Feelings

It doesn’t take long reading comments here to understand we’re obsessed with real estate. Yes, even when the whole raison d’être of this pathetic blog is balance. These days that’s a quaint, dusty notion. Everybody wants all-in on something. It could be GameStop. Or crypto. But usually, for the bulk of Canadians, it’s a house. […]

Is rampant inflation likely?

February 18, 2021 | Roubini Not Buying Cryptomania

The higher prices go in financial manias, the more people buy in, and the more infectious the pressure to declare gains justified.  Even those who can do the math and know better are very often swept into ‘new era’ thinking. Roubini sees a naked Emperor in crytocurrencies and doesn’t mind saying so.  He summarizes many […]

February 18, 2021 | Fossil Fuels: Here For a Long Future

This Valentine’s Day weekend, Arctic chills froze wind turbines and blackouts descended on Texas. Demand for gas soared as homes were left without heat. If you didn’t know how dependent we are on fossil fuels, ask a Texan. In the 21st century, there are some things we take for granted, like reliable services and reliable utilities. […]

February 18, 2021 | Voracious

It is the best of times. It is the worst of times. It all depends if you’re selling or trying to buy a house. That time is now. Everywhere. We are setting our society up for a thumping. Let’s fly into YYC for starters. In Calgary the jobless rate is close to 11%. The commercial […]

Naked shorting devastating for smaller companies

February 18, 2021 | COVID – A Convenient Virus

German researchers have disagreed with the WHO which claimed Wuhan lab was not the source of the virus. This virus was planned and the action of the World Economic Forum and Bill Gates selling out positions and even bonds from December 2019 into January 2020 and then warnings that Klaus Schwab made to intimates reflect […]

February 17, 2021 | Why Global Warming was a Total Farce & it’s Now Incorporated into the Great Reset

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, your computer and you have been correct on everything from politics to markets and even climate. You said we would be headed back to global cooling.  Was this based on the solar waves of energy from the sun? Thank you for the thought-provoking blog DL ANSWER: This is the Western Plague in […]

February 17, 2021 | It’s Back

So, recall all those boring, pedantic, dorky and hectoring blog posts about the cost of money going up as inflation returns? Sure ya do. They’re the ones nobody believed and dissed me for. Just like all the times I’ve gently reminded you to buy fresh trousers because later in 2021 you’ll be going back to […]

February 17, 2021 | Keeping Clear

Someone recently asked me how I stay rational and focused amid manic markets and people. It’s pretty simple, really: I know that crazy is as crazy does. Growing up, I witnessed alcoholism and destructive behaviors in close family members. I know the critical importance of self-control and maintaining mental health. For more than thirty years, […]

February 17, 2021 | Gold Setting Up Major Bottom So Could We See A Breakout Rally Begin Soon?

There has been quite a bit of chatter related to precious metals lately.  The rally in Cryptos, particularly Bitcoin, and various other stocks have raised expectations that Gold and Silver have been overlooked as a true hedging instrument. As these rallies continue in various other stocks and sectors, Gold and Silver have continued to trade […]

February 16, 2021 | In-Your-Face Inflation: AutoNation Brags About Huge Jump in Per-Vehicle Gross Profit on Soaring Prices Despite Declining New-Vehicle Unit Sales

AutoNation, the largest chain of franchised auto dealerships in the US, reported fourth quarter earnings this morning – and even as the total number of new vehicles sold in the quarter fell from a year earlier, the company bragged about a number of records, all of them related to higher prices and stupendous growth in […]

February 16, 2021 | Re-Opening and New Variants Suggest Third-Wave in March

In Canada’s most populous province, Ontario, 27 regions will begin a gradual reopening today against the backdrop of stark scientific modelling that has predicted a third wave of infections and the potential of a third lockdown. Several community-based outbreaks of the more virulent and vaccine-challenging South African variant have been confirmed in Ontario over the last week. […]

February 16, 2021 | No Pipeline? Then Oil Moves By Rail

Gulf Coast refineries need Alberta’s heavy oil. But without Keystone XL, that oil will move by rail instead of pipeline. That’s bad news for jobs, and it’s bad news for our environment. Recent years have been good to anti-pipeline activists in Canada but not to the thousands of families put out of work. With US […]

February 16, 2021 | The Everything Bubble

A two-by-four at Home Depot now costs more than seven bucks. As mentioned here, puppies are going for three grand. If you can find one. Boats, RVs, quads, sleds and cruisers are sold out, backordered or just gone. Try buying a Peloton. Or a house in the suburbs, for that matter. Inventory is scarce and […]
