Do You Believe in Magic?

The people pretending to run the world’s financial affairs do. The more layers of abstract game-playing they add to the existing armatures of unreality they’ve already constructed, the more certain it becomes that they will blow up all the support systems of a sunsetting hyper-tech economy that now has no safe lane to continue running in. Virtually all the big nations are doing this now in desperation because they don’t understand that the hyper-tech economy is hostage to the deteriorating economics of energy, basically fossil fuels, and oil especially. The macro mega-system can’t grow anymore. We’re now in the de-growth phase of a dynamic that pulsates through ...

Homeless man is first person to ever live in a 3D-printed home in Texas community “I hope I stay here until my last dying days.” Those are the words of Tim Shea, who has come a long way since his days as a homeless man once struggling with heroin addiction. He is now the first person ever to live in a 3-D-printed house, according to the home’s maker. On the outskirts of Austin, Texas, 70-year-old Shea has settled into his 400-square-foot home constructed by 3-D printing. His new home is situated in the Community First! Village site, which is comprised of houses for the chronically homeless. The 51-acre development has more than 500 homes thus far, including the 3-D ...

When governments around face economic problems… stagnation, recession, a sudden crisis, or even a simple period of lower-than-expected growth… they all are conditioned to use the same solution: deficit spend or issue new trillions in “thin air” currency. How many times can governments paper over problems? Are there any consequences? Our friend Adam Taggart recently sat down with respected financial analyst Michael Every who suspects we’re closer than most realize and that it could even lead to a breakdown of the entire system. As governments continue to flood the world with debt-funded stimulus, they not only fan the flames under the social powderkeg of wealth ...

Last Thursday, President Joe Biden was allowed out of his protective bubble to deliver a nationally televised address to the nation. This was big news in Washington, as Biden has been in hiding since taking office. Normally a new president spends his first few weeks in office making the rounds, chatting with the media, and doing what amounts to a victory lap around Washington. Biden has not done any of that. Even though the American media is stuffed to the gills with toadies and rumpswabs, there is always the chance one of them accidentally asks him a real question. Worse yet, there is the chance he tries to answer. For a man in severe cognitive decline, even simple questions can lead to ...

How reassured were you by Joe Biden’s speech to the nation Thursday night? The more his managers pretend that he’s in charge of anything, the more unlikely it actually seems. So, they wound him up — Adderall would be my guess, to fortify the attention span — and rolled him out like the mummy of Amenhotep III, and one could just imagine the leaders of this-and-that foreign nation cringing (or cackling) in their seats to see this embodiment of collapsing America go through his spiritless ritual motions. Mostly what did not fly is the idea that the Covid-19 virus can still be used as a cattle-prod for herding citizens into feedlots of compliance — Americans are ...

Rickards: What's The Real Price Of Gold?

hat’s the price of gold? That seems like a ridiculously easy question to answer. I’m looking at a trading screen right now, and it displays a price of $1,733.80 per ounce. That price may change a bit by the time you read this, but it would only take a fresh glance at the screen to get the new price. Case closed. What’s the price of silver? Again, the question seems easy to answer. My trading screen right now says $26.82 per ounce. That price also changes, but it only takes another look at the screen to fetch the new price. Nothing to it. If only things were that simple. They’re not. In fact, establishing prices for gold and silver is far more difficult than it ...

Why Dominion’s Defamation Lawsuits Are Garbage

Dominion Voting Systems is suing MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell for $1.3 billion. This comes in the wake of other Dominion lawsuits against Trump advisors Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell. All are accused of lying about Dominion’s supposed complicity in using the company’s vote-counting software to favor presidential candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. The company claims Lindell’s accusations “have caused irreparable harm to Dominion’s good reputation and threatened the safety of our employees and customers.” In the case of Giuliani, the company claims: “For Dominion—whose business is producing and providing voting systems for ...

Bitcoin Holds Record Highs As JPMorgan Co-President Admits "We'll Have To Be Involved"

Well this is a little awkward... Four years since Jamie Dimon famously proclaimed that "bitcoin is a fraud", "will eventually blow up", and that "any trader trading bitcoin would be fired for being stupid", JPMorgan's co-President Daniel Pinto has reportedly admitted that bitcoin and its crypto brethren are a real thing: "If over time an asset class develops that is going to be used by different asset managers and investors, we will have to be involved,” CNBC's Hugh Son reports that last month, during a town hall meeting held for thousands of JPMorgan Chase traders and sales personnel around the world, global markets head Troy Rohrbaugh ...

Betsy McCaughey: Politicians want to help only employers who are minorities or women Small-business owners are struggling to survive the pandemic and government-imposed lockdowns. But white male business owners have an added problem. While politicians are offering loans and grants to minority-owned and women-owned businesses, they could care less about helping white men. What's next? Tax breaks for women and minorities, and higher rates for white men? Government programs shouldn't discriminate. We're all supposed to be equal under the law. Tell that to President Joe Biden, who won the election with promises to unify. His 27-page plan to "build back better by advancing ...

America's Oldest Bank Adopts Cryptocurrencies, Will Treat Bitcoin "As Any Other Asset"

The oldest bank in America will now be storing Bitcoin on behalf of its asset-management clients, according to the Wall Street Journal. “Digital assets are becoming part of the mainstream,” said Roman Regelman, chief executive of BNY Mellon’s asset-servicing and digital businesses. BNY Mellon’s announcement marks the first time one of the big custody banks has unveiled a road map for treating digital currencies as any other asset. Decrypt reports that the bank plans to enable cryptocurrencies to flow through the same systems that it uses for its traditional currencies and stocks. It has created a prototype for doing this and is engaging with clients to see if they ...

Biden Wants to Shut Down Credit Bureaus – What Would That Mean for You?

One of the more fascinating platform items of the Biden presidential campaign was the idea of transferring consumer credit ratings from Equifax (NYSE: EFX), Experian PLC (OTC: EXPGY) and TransUnion (NYSE: TRU) to a public registry under the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. As reported by the Balance, this idea was examined in depth in a paper published by a think tank called Demos in 2019. One major takeaway of that paper was that “decisions drawing on credit data reproduce and spread existing racial inequality, making it harder to achieve true economic equity.” Demos proposed the idea of a public credit registry in that paper. The CFPB has a new acting director, Dave ...

Can’t we just all get along? No, apparently. Branding everyone to the right of Woke a “terrorist” and an “insurrectionist,” as is the style these days with the sore winner party, will probably not warm a whole lot of hearts and minds among the politically disenchanted. It comes with an odor of desperation, too, as if Joe Biden’s consolidated Deep State is so lacking in confidence, even in victory, that it can’t distinguish policy from punishment — and so the beatings will continue until morale improves. Outside the razor-wired DC perimeter, with its bomb-proof bureaucracy, the economy is in freefall. This has not quite come to the attention of a ...

“Silver Squeeze” Supply Update

“Silver Squeeze” Supply Update Alex Daley, president of GoldSilver.com FEB 1, 2021 As many predicted with the social media chatter of a "silver squeeze", this weekend saw unusually high demand for precious metals, especially physical silver, causing many sites including ours to run low on stock or temporarily stop taking orders. A few of our most popular products are now back online, with more being added throughout the day. Orders placed over the weekend will be honored, as we deal exclusively in allocated physical metals from our network of mints, refiners and wholesalers. As always, orders for allocated storage remain liquid at all times – they are in ...

Times of Israel Explains “The Jewish Angles” on the GameStop Stock Situation

The Times of Israel had another one of those headlines that might as well have been a Daily Stormer headline, regarding the GameStop situation: “The Jewish Angles to the GameStock Saga, Explained.” As you’re presumably aware, there has been a lot happening in the stock market, as normal people, referred to as “retail investors,” on reddit’s r/WallStreetBets have been pumping up GameStop stock, in order to force the Jews who shorted the stock to give them all of their ill gotten-wealth. Along with making the redditors rich, this is also a type of activism, with redditors expressing anger at the financial industry, which is viewed as parasitic. In the ...

Bullion Dealers Face Sudden Shortage As Reddit-Raiders Take Aim At Silver

It would appear the run on silver has begun. With the market closed, traders have rushed to secure some exposure to silver ahead of what WSB suggests could be "the world's biggest short squeeze" and that has left bullion dealers As we noted below, the premium for physical silver had soared late Friday and into Saturday (after the massive flows into SLV), but as Sunday rolled around, bullion dealers are now facing massive shortages of physical coins. And as one investor noted, the shortages are widespread... We can only imagine where SLV will open after this. * * * While all eyes have been focused on GameStop and a handful of other heavily-shorted stocks as they exploded ...

In a blowout comedy for the ages, finance pirates take it up the clacker In the fall of 2008, America’s wealthiest companies were in a pickle. Short-selling hedge funds, smelling blood as the global economy cratered, loaded up with bets against finance stocks, pouring downward pressure on teetering, hyper-leveraged firms like Morgan Stanley and Citigroup. The free-market purists at the banks begged the government to stop the music, and when the S.E.C. complied with a ban on financial short sales, conventional wisdom let out a cheer. "This will absolutely make a difference," economist Peter Cardillo told CNN. "Now, if there is any good news, shorts will have to ...

If you’re new to high finance, then the concept of “shorting” is bizarre and convoluted. People actually make money from stocks falling? How is this possible? Why is it legal? Does this contribute anything to society? Am I missing out? Here’s how shorting works. Let’s say you have a neighbor who is a cat lady that collects Beanie Babies. She has one prized beanie called Roary the Lion, worth $5000 (according to the intellectual darkweb, where these things are traded). Unfortunately, she’s got some bills coming due this month and she doesn’t want to be forced to sell Roary. So you offer to borrow Roary from her for 3 months in exchange for $200. ...
