Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: You are pessimistic about a resolution in the Iran-Israel conflict. Why is this different from Ukraine or even Vietnam? Jake ANSWER: This conflict between Iran and Israel is far more serious because it is Religious, not Ethnic, philosophical, or Conquest. The Ukraine conflict is ethnic. Ukrainians wrongly hate Russians because Stalin took their food and starved millions. What they REFUSE to admit […]

Armstrong Economics - In early 2021, the entire European Union was under lockdown. Governments were prohibiting citizens from participating in society without the vaccination, and the EU’s largest supplier at the time, AstraZeneca, was unable to meet production needs.  European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen awarded Pfizer a €35 billion contract, personally, bypassing the proper channels in […]

Armstrong Economics -   A source from inside the NATO summit reported that Trump has correctly stated that Article 5 is voluntary, not a binding commitment. He has said that the US will sell and supply weapons, intelligence, and support to NATO and NATO members if a NATO member is attacked by other countries that are not NATO […]

Armstrong Economics -   World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab stepped down from his chairman position at the organization on April 20, 2025, amid accusations of fraud. Our computer had forecast that the WEF would enter a declining trend with the 2024 ECM turning point. This staged coup happened about 37 years after the first Davos meeting (8.6 […]

Armstrong Economics - The neocons would never permit a true ceasefire. The war in the Middle East must continue in order to broaden the West’s conflict with Russia. Russia is not permitted to remain neutral, despite Putin’s insistence. Follow the money—NATO has assembled $40 BILLION to prolong aggression against Russia. “Let’s not forget, Iran is heavily involved in […]

Armstrong Economics -   Supply chain constraints are inevitable during wartime. Shippers are actively avoiding the Strait of Hormuz that connects the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea amid the Iranian nuclear tensions. This is a significant disruption as around 20% of global oil is funneled through this passageway. Oman’s Musandam Peninsula hosts a narrow passageway with Iran […]

Armstrong Economics -   COMMENT: Marty, it is disgraceful that people take your work and issue books pretending it is their research. Yet it is even more shameful that Donald Trump isn’t calling you for advice instead of these people who couldn’t find the door in a room if the lights went out. You stated clearly that Iran’s […]

Armstrong Economics -     I repeatedly warned that the headlines would blame Trump tariffs for the incoming inflationary wave. Jerome Powell stated that “uncertainty is unusually elevated” as a result of tariffs, adding, “someone has to pay for the tariffs.” “Ultimately, the cost of the tariff has to be paid, and some of it will fall on […]

Armstrong Economics - China has discovered a massive 1-million-ton thorium deposit valued at $178 billion that could potentially power the nation for the next 60,000 years. Thorium is a radioactive metal found in the Earth’s crust that is three times as common as uranium. One ton of thorium can produce as much energy as 200 tons of uranium […]

Armstrong Economics -   This Middle East War is deeply connected with the war to destroy Russia, and it is all orchestrated by the NEOCONS. I have written before that I argued with Bill Kristol back in the ’90s, whose father helped start the Neoconservative movement. They wanted to remove all opponents of Israel under the pretense that […]

Armstrong Economics - Israel launched Operation Rising Lion on June 13, 2025, in an attempt to stop Israel’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs to “roll back the Iranian threat for Israel’s survival.” Mossad intelligence agents penetrated Iranian facilities with small explosive drones. Simultaneously, 200 Israeli fighter jets carried out precision strikes on over 100 targets. Over 20 senior […]

Armstrong Economics -   Is War a Contagion? World War I is certainly a classic case of war emerging as a contagion. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand triggered a chain reaction of alliances pulling countries into the conflict. That seems like contagion through formal treaties. Yet, there is also the spread of revolutions. The American Revolution saw […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, either the world is using Socrates, or this is always one hell of a coincidence, which I do not believe. The defense stocks moved days before the Hamas attack. You projected that the war would start in Ukraine more than a year in advance. When are you going to come clean and […]

Armstrong Economics - While domestic small businesses suffered under Biden-Harris, Ukraine saw a boost in their small business thanks to billions in grants that were paid for by the US taxpayer. USAID subsidized Ukrainian businesses through co-investment programs, interest rate compensation on loans, cashback incentives for leading equipment, and direct financial support. All in all, USAID’s “Investment for […]

Armstrong Economics -   “Every single Democratic governor agrees,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom posted on X along with a letter supporting the rioters. Every single Democrat received the memo that the plan to “fight Trump” entails permitting their minions to burn down another city. In addition to 4,000 National Guard troops, the White House has deployed a group […]

Armstrong Economics -    The Los Angeles riots exemplify the left’s ongoing approach to dissenting political policies—violence. Rioters are burning the city of Los Angeles to the ground, yet again, while Democrats clap and condemn the Trump Administration for causing the destruction. Dozens of innocent people have been injured. The financial toll of these riots has not […]

Armstrong Economics -     QUESTION: Marty, with so many markets all showing sharp rises in volatility of panic cycles in 2026, ahead of what appears to be a significant turn in 2027, the rumor is that your computer will be correct. According to my military sources, Ukraine is expected to fall by August or by 2026. They […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Have you lost respect for Musk? DD ANSWER: Unfortunately, yes. Look, both Trump and Musk act on instinct, you might say, but Musk lacks the experience. Trump is a negotiator, and he goes with the flow. He does not see any catastrophic shame in changing his mind quickly. Musk, on the other hand, is […]

Armstrong Economics -   The Daily Beast, another LEFT-WING propaganda outlet, pretends that this strike means Ukraine is winning. I think every one of these journalists should be drafted, handed a gun, and sent to Ukraine to defend what they boast about. Sorry, Putin is the smartest leader in the room. He has drawn so many red lines, […]

Armstrong Economics - If you were unfamiliar with the American analytics company Palanatir Technologies, prepare to hear about it on every news channel in the coming months. Donald Trump secured the presidency twice because he was the anti-establishment candidate. The White House has tasked Planatir with developing an extensive centralized federal database to house the personal data of […]

Armstrong Economics -   COMMENT: Marty, you are always way ahead of everyone else. You told Greg Hunter that Trump called Putin. Why anyone listens to any commentator when they are not the ones with real contacts is beyond me. Thank you so much for everything you do. They handed Obama the Nobel Peace Prize when he was […]

Armstrong Economics - May’s private payrolls based on ADP estimates are the lowest since March 2023. Private payrolls rose only 37,000 last month, far beneath April’s addition of 60,000 and a far cry from the Dow Jones forecast of 110,000. The financial sector rose by 20,000, leisure and hospitality saw an increase of 38,000, and construction added 6,000. […]

Armstrong Economics -   COMMENT: Marty, I have been with you since 1987. I have watched your Economic Confidence Model blow everyone out of the water, and your critics are just idiots who are either genuinely just stupid or they are paid by the “club” to try to prevent people from listening to you. Anyone who criticizes you […]
