January 22, 2020 | Interest Rates and the Great Global Crisis
COMMENT: I attended your 2016 WEC and I thought you would be wrong that interest rates would rise and the whole big bang thing. Rates have risen only in the US, the pension crisis is clearly unfolding, and states have been going bust. Now there is the Repo Crisis and I did buy the report. […]

January 16, 2020 | Capital Flows & the Next ECM
QUESTION: Sir, You have advised us to avoid sovereign debt after the ECM date. I imagine that the crisis will affect nations unequally. It seems obvious that money would leave bonds in the more challenged, negative rate countries (EU and Japan).

January 15, 2020 | Is Climate Change Dispute the Same As the Fall of Rome?
Climate Change has become a fanatical religion because there is no proof and it rests entirely on belief.

Like the Pagans, they immediately attack anyone who dares to disagree with them and they will not […]

January 13, 2020 | Could the Fed Ever Exit the Repo Market?
It is stunning how after more than three months, the analysis on the repo market is still nowhere close to reality.

January 8, 2020 | Understanding the Global Economy from the Dollar to the Euro

QUESTION: Dear Martin, You have discussed the structural design flaw in the euro being due to the lack of consolidation of EU countries’ debt, as well as, EU policies that prohibit bank bailouts.

January 6, 2020 | Gold, War, & the ECM
QUESTION: Marty, Do you think it will be time to short the bonds with the ECM? Gold had bounced off the Downtrend line instead of electing the bearish reversals and it rallied after the Pi turning point. You said if gold peaked with the bottom of the ECM it could then fall back to retest […]
January 5, 2020 | Capital Flow & War
QUESTION: Marty, at one of your WEC events during the nineties, if I remember correctly, you had said that your capital flow analysis revealed that the dollar rises during European and Middle Eastern wars and declines with North American wars.

January 4, 2020 | Iran & the Cycle of War
QUESTION: Marty; you had forecast that the future war in the Middle East would start to escalate in 2020 with the ECM turn and possibly erupt by 2021.

December 28, 2019 | Understanding Cycles
QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; I met someone who used to work for you. He said your models are far more complex than anyone imagines and that it is not a simple algorithm.

December 26, 2019 | The BS of Climate Change from Polar Bears to Taxes

Meanwhile, confidence in the housing market has finally rebounded but much of this is due […]
