Martin Arthur Armstrong is current chairman and founder of Armstrong Economics. He is best known for his economic predictions based on the Economic Confidence Model, which he developed.

Armstrong Economics -     This is perhaps one of the most fascinating reports I have ever written. This was inspired by my invitation to speak in Alberta concerning their movement to separate from Canada. A few propose being the 51st State, but the more practical move would be to become a sovereign state on their own, which […]

Armstrong Economics - President Donald Trump shocked the world once again by presenting South Africa’s president with evidence of the long-denied white farmer genocide. During his first term, Trump first alerted the world to the situation in South Africa, but was largely ignored. The South African government called his claims “misinformation,” yet the government has been considering a […]

Armstrong Economics -   China’s BYD beat out Tesla for the first time this April to become the top EV vehicle brand sold in Europe. BYD only outpaced Tesla by 100 vehicles, but the 7,231 cars that made their way to Europe show that tariffs are not deterring European consumer demand. Sales for BYD’s battery-powered vehicles soared 170% […]

Armstrong Economics - US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent rebuked Moody’s lowered rating of US credit from AAA to AA1. “First of all, I think that Moody’s is a lagging indicator, and I think that’s what everyone thinks of credit agencies,” Bessent said. “Larry Summers and I don’t agree on everything, but he’s said that when they downgraded the […]

Armstrong Economics -   President Donald Trump completed a successful tour of the Middle East that resulted in foreign investments surmounting to over $3.2 trillion. President Trump believes that $10 trillion in capital will flow to US, a staggering amount of money, equal to over half of the DIJA’s entire market cap. The $10 trillion figure remains aspirational […]

Armstrong Economics -   Nordic nations have been leading the cashless society revolution. Masked as a manner of efficiency, digital transactions are not demanded by governments globally as they seek to rake in all money off the grid for taxation purposes. Sweden is nearly a cashless society, with less than 2% of transactions occurring in physical currency as […]

Armstrong Economics -   Moody’s Investor Service downgraded the United States’ credit rating from a top-tier rating of AAA to AA1 due to rising government debt. Fitch Ratings lowered the US debt in August 2023 for the same reason in August 2023, and while Moody’s did not officially act at the time the agency warned that the US […]

Armstrong Economics - 🚨🔊LISTEN TO THIS CLIP AND TELL ME THE ATTEPTED OSTRICH CULLING ISN’T THE VACCINE INDUSTRY TRYING TO WIPE OUT COMPETITION🚨🔊 pic.twitter.com/GYODt61mnO — Kyle Kemper 💫 (@kylekemper) May 16, 2025 Post by AgentGuru on X: Canada’s Ostrich Cull Scandal: Are Big Pharma and Globalist Interests Pulling the Strings? When I first heard about the ostrich farm […]

Armstrong Economics - Financial literacy is steadily declining in America. The percentage of US adults demonstrating a very low level of financial literacy increased from 20% in 2017 to 25% in 2023. Around 58% of Americans know about debt and borrowing. Over half (55%) understand saving, and 50% understand consumption. About 42% understand insurance, 44% know about investing, and […]

Armstrong Economics - The European Union recently implemented its 17th round of sanctions against Russia, in case the first 16 were insufficient. Jean-Noël Barrot, France’s Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, would like to take a harsher approach by placing a 500% tariff on anyone purchasing Russian oil. “We must move forward because the current sanctions have not convinced Vladimir […]

Armstrong Economics - Trade is a unifying agent that causes countries to put their differences aside. Donald Trump has been warmly welcomed by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and even a leader from Syria. The United States announced it would lift sanctions on Syria after Trump’s historic meeting with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, a former Sunni […]

Armstrong Economics -     Withdrawing large sums in cash is no longer possible in Spain without the government’s approval. Those withdrawing €3,000 or more must notify Spain’s tax agency, Agencia Tributaria, in advance. Withdrawals at or exceeding  €100,000 require a 72-hour approval process, and the tax agency is requesting a 24-hour mandatory notification for any amount over […]

Armstrong Economics - I am back from my trip to Alberta, Canada. They will separate, and currently the polls show 40% want to leave. I also stopped by to visit the facility of SilverGoldBull operation in Calgary. This is me holding a 400-ounce bar of gold – central bank standard. I was very impressed with their operation. I was given […]

Armstrong Economics - Businesses cannot properly determine how much or when to buy due to ever-changing tariffs. Tariffs will certainly not halt trade, but they have caused a kink in the supply chain. The Port of Seattle reported a temporarily lack of any container ships last week. “I can see it right over my shoulder here, I’m looking […]

Armstrong Economics - Germany has become increasingly tyrannical in its fight to combat dissenters who do not believe in abandoning nationalism for Brussels. Not only does the German government want to banish political parties who dissent from its narrative, but it has implemented a hotline where citizens may report others who spread “disinformation” and “conspiracy theories.” The Violence […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, a friend of mine attends your conferences and said you’re the only person who understands the economy because you have international experience and have met with many central banks around the world. He said inflation is no longer the simplistic expansion of the money supply, and anyone who said that is still […]

Armstrong Economics - Canadian exports to the United States are beginning to decrease in light of the trade war. Statistics Canada announced that exports to the United States, Canada’s largest trading partner, declined 6.6% during the first month of tariffs while imports from the United States fell 2.9%. March 2025 was the second-highest recorded monthly increase in non-US […]

Armstrong Economics - Oil refinery Valero has opted to close its operations in California due to excessive regulations on energy. Located in the small city of Benicia, the town is expected to lose 400 jobs, which the mayor is calling the exit “a major hit on the city.” Everyone in California is feeling the impact of Newsom’s war […]

Armstrong Economics - (The Wuhan Institute of Virology) America will no longer fund gain-of-research studies, thanks to an executive order implemented by Donald Trump that “will drastically reduce the potential for lab-related incidents involving gain-of-function research, like that conducted on bat coronaviruses in China by the EcoHealth Alliance and Wuhan Institute of Virology.” As a reminder, the Wuhan […]

Armstrong Economics -   The Amish had an extremely low rate of COVID infections, as well as for most diseases that infect modern societies. Regardless, the Canadian government is continuing to harass this community for failing to abide by COVID-era regulations. In particular, the Canadian government is demanding that the Amish community pay for non-compliance with the federal […]

Armstrong Economics -   Democrats are continuing their plight to abolish the Second Amendment. “You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind each blade of grass,” is a famous quote misattributed to Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto during the last World War. Yet, our right to bear arms certainly keeps us safe from predators both […]

Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: Do you agree with Trump imposing more sanctions on Russia to force peace? VB ANSWER: Absolutely no way. This is a stupid move, and it demonstrates to me that either Trump is not being fed the real intel, or he is being reckless. There is no way Putin should sign any peace deal with Ukraine when […]

Armstrong Economics - All my sources have been singing the same song. Carney won by creating hatred of Donald Trump, for this was a strategy carried out for the sole purpose of moving away from the USA and aligning with the EU. Even when Carney first became PM, he went to the EU, not to Washington. He is […]

Armstrong Economics - Washington state is multiplying taxes for mega corporations in a move to cover its widening budget deficit. The state is expected to face a $12 to $16 billion shortfall over the next four years, according to the Office of Financial Management. The deficit should come as no surprise as state spending has ballooned by 40% […]

Armstrong Economics - Carney’s Victory Speech was an acknowledgement that what we are witnessing is truly more than just a hate fest against Trump. Carney is saying the relationship between USA and Canada is over. This is not about tariffs. This is about power. Just as the media has been 92%+ anti-Trump, this is the FAR LEFT and […]
