FPDM (Front Pages Don’t Matter) We us trajectories instead of media blurbs to guide our future and current plans for what should be obvious reasons.  But, if you really need … Read More

Calls for an immediate market collapse have been loud. But what if there’s still one more moonshot left? This morning on Peoplenomics, we examine the improving bounce signals, the possibility of a final high, and a revealing feature of 1929: Wall Street was still manufacturing exciting new investment paper around the market’s peak. Radio then. … Read More

This could be a decisive day for a very simple reason: In our 1929 Replay model, we have reached a point where the market looks ready to crash or climb.  OK, a safe emergency landing is still possible, but directional pressures are building. Yes, it can keep us waiting. Markets (in theory) could “circle the … Read More

All you need to know: World didn’t end overnight. Markets are Buying the rumor ahead of CPI. Futures were up when we looked just now. Now being press time.  Back when the coffee was hot, and the sleep deep enough that daylight cynicism time seemed like it might skip Monday. Nope. No chance. Life Marches … Read More

Well, that was unpleasant. For months, our experimental Over-the-Horizon (OTH) software has been pointing toward late October and early November as a convergence zone where financial, political, military, and technological pressures might begin reinforcing one another. Thursday’s 1,833-point Dow decline arrived inside the October 27–November 13 danger window identified in our frozen October 24 forecast. … Read More

After the Close: When the Market Gets Serious Well, this was sure a nasty one, eh? Down more than 1,800 points on the Dow, with percentage losses elsewhere looking equally grim.
