Inflation Chronicles: Even Solar Prices Are Soaring
Solar panels are basically microprocessors, so it’s not a surprise that they’ve been following their own version of Moore’s Law, declining in price by 5%-10% each year.

Inflation Is A Problem Here But An Existential Threat Over There
Here in the US, prices are rising, packages are shrinking and shelves are emptying. This is annoying, but it’s not (yet) the stuff of revolutions. The same, alas, can’t be said for some other places. One of the Wall Street Journal’s many recent articles on inflation contains this ominous section (emphasis added): The large central […]
Joe Rogan Shows How To Interview CNN
The mainstream media seems baffled by its sudden loss of credibility. But it shouldn’t be.

Today’s Chart: This Gold Bull Market Has Years To Run
The recent back-and-forth precious metals action has left a lot of people frustrated with both the metal and the “permabulls” in this space. Fair enough. Gold has almost doubled from its 2015 low, but it’s done so in a really boring way, which is the ultimate crime in the blow-off stage of a financial bubble […]

How Can Houses Be Unaffordable AND Booming?

Since RVs were frequently the final pointless toy that people bought (after motorcycles, boats, and massive pickup trucks) in the debt orgy that defines late-stage credit bubbles, booming RV sales often presaged a stock market crash – which then sent […]
