The euro system and its currency are descending into crisis. Comprised of the ECB and the National Central Banks, the system is over its head in balance sheet debt, and it is far from clear how that can be resolved. Therefore, the euro is sliding. Markets can see that all the ECB is doing is […]
Bill Blain: How long and deep is inflation, and how close is China to a banking crisis?
Is there a lot more brewing in China than meets the eye? Coronavirus lockdowns in China threaten to keep supply chains malfunctioning. Over the last 2 years of Covid, China has effectively sequestered itself from the global economy. Hong Kong has been spun from being the premier western entrepot into a kow-towing domestic city. China […]
Jesse Felder: When bubbles go bust
You still hear the rare oddball holdout say, “I’m waiting for the market to rise for one last high in order to put in a blowoff top,” as if it didn’t already put in the most obvious blowoff top in market history. In fact, the meme stock blowoff clear back in February of 2021 marked […]
The rise of the troglodytes
Have the governments of the world truly acted in our best interest as they locked us away in our caves in response to the Covid-19 pandemic? One can argue physiological health becomes predominantly important when faced with such a crisis. But do our “powers that be” care about or understand our mental and emotional welfare? […]
Harlan Ullman: Our leaders are failing us
Congress is usually gridlocked because parties are deadlocked across a deep partisan divide. The nation is culturally and politically divided and increasingly unable to get anything done. It now takes three decades to plan and build an aircraft carrier. We pay more for healthcare and get less care… by Harlan Ullman on the Publius […]
Matthew Piepenburg: Paper gold price manipulation—rigged to fail
The current and open fraud regarding paper gold pricing in the COMEX has become as plain to see as the desperation spreading throughout the global financial system. As all markets — bonds, real-estate, stocks, crypto currencies, etc. — are unraveling in real-time all around us, we now have news revealing just how rigged the gold […]
Peter Schiff: This won’t be a short shallow recession
The mainstream seems to have conceded that the economy is heading toward a recession. But most people aren’t too worried. They seem to think the downturn will turn out short and shallow. In his podcast, Peter explains why the recession will more likely be long and deep. Since people don’t understand the nature of the […]
Michael Snyder: Who is behind a series of “mysterious explosions” at natural gas facilities in the US?
Perhaps authorities are correct in their claims that a series of suspicious fires and explosions in natural-gas facilities are unrelated and are accidental just as they claimed for food-processing plants scattered around America; but the timing as natural-gas soars in price due to shortages and sanctions is suspicious. It seems reasonable to ask questions and […]
Michael Snyder: Much of the Southwest is turning into ‘Death Valley’ as dustbowl conditions return and water resources dry up
If Lake Mead, Lake Powell and the Colorado River keep drying up at the rate they have been, millions of Americans could soon be without water and electricity. Meanwhile, the National Park Service says that Death Valley is the hottest and driest place in North America, but vast stretches of the Southwest are now starting […]

Mark Jeftovic: Rebranding Elitism – Calling the Liberal World Order for what it is
Today’s elites are caught in a dilemma: Nobody wants what they’re selling. They promised a world where under their expert management, the economy would function unfailingly, there would be peace in our time, and when the pandemic hit they had it all under control (anybody remember “two weeks to flatten the curve?”). They even tease us […]
James Rickards: Welcome to 1984!
Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are coming even faster than many anticipated. The digital yuan is already here. Fed Chair Jay Powell said, “A U.S. CBDC could… potentially help maintain the dollar’s international standing.” A digital dollar, however, is still a dollar. A digital euro is still a euro. They are not crypto. They are not […]
Egon von Greyerz: This implosion will be fast – hold onto your seats
The massive money creation in the 2000s has led to a debt and asset bubble, which is about to burst. Investors will be shocked by the speed of the decline and won’t react before it is too late… by Egon von Greyerz on Gold Switzerland: The massive money creation by central and commercial banks in […]
David Stockman: The Great Fed Reckoning has begun … for all of us
The foolishness of the Fed is something for which we will all pay dearly. No one escapes inflation, though it affects the poorest the worst. Sure, inflation will burn itself out eventually in the trash pits of recession, unless the Fed returns to more excessive money printing. However, the only way it does that is […]
Wolf Richter: New era begins as Fed kicks off QT with a drop of $74 billion from peak
An army of Fed tightening-deniers trolled the internet and social media, claiming in conspiratorial tones QT never began. Some even announced it had already ended or the Fed was clandestinely backtracking, while those who leaned most sinister suggested hedge funds were manipulating markets through their minions. All of this happened simply because Treasuries hadn’t dropped in […]
