Gold – Losing Its Mobility

One of the greatest advantages of gold throughout history was the fact that it was independent of government and movable. Today, the hunt for taxes by government has been expanded to all forms of wealth. Above is the entry form for India. Not only is gold specifically listed, it is listed in jewelry form, and […]

China & the Dollar

The dollar rally and the devaluation of the yuan is not a fluke and it most certainly is not a one-time event. The dollar declined against the yuan for 19 years during the same timing that saw gold decline from 1980 to 1999. The major low on an annual closing basis at 2013 and 2014 was an outside reversal […]

Money Laundering & Gold

I have warned that if you are going to buy gold, make sure it is common date $20, $10, or $5 gold coins since bullion is going to become a dirty word. As of April 1, 2015, Chase Bank in the U.S. is advising its clients who rent safe deposit boxes that they may not […]

The Next Two Months

The next two months going into September will be both interesting and critical. The NASDAQ Composite made new highs in July, but the S&P500 and the Dow Jones Industrials failed to exceed May highs. The general consensus is that there will be a rate hike in September and another in December, so if we back-off from […]

NSA: A Tax & Economics Espionage Agency

Anyone who thinks this is about terrorism is pathetically naive. The NSA is a top-notch Tax & Economic Espionage (TEE) organization; with terrorism so low on the agenda, it is laughable. You do not collect every phone call worldwide of billions of people to sort out even 100 terrorists. They store all that data and can input your name and […]

The Risk of Real Estate – Forget Derivative & Fiat

The asset class within tangible assets in the immovable category is none other than real estate. This greatly varies from one location to the next. We face two main problems with real estate because we are facing a major Sovereign Debt Crisis. First is the fact we have a problem with leverage reflected within interest rates. While many tout […]

Gold Has NOT Bottomed Yet

Gold elected a Monthly Bearish Reversal today at 1155. We have some support down at the 1042 level for now. Technical support for August lies at the 1029 level. We will be issuing the update on gold for those who purchased last year’s report by the end of the month to cover the downside. This […]

C$ Elects Monthly Bearish

The C$ fell sharply against the U.S. dollar, confirming our computer forecast for a rising dollar and completing the trend to initiate a deflationary cycle in the U.S. post-2015.75. Basis the cash, the U.S. dollar closed ABOVE the 1008 high, showing that we are moving beyond the crisis level felt during the 2007–2009 panic. The […]

Cryptocurrencies

QUESTION: Hi Martin, I like that you are very open minded when in comes to future tech which will change the world and dogmas (like electric cars and gas becoming obsolete etc.). One of these things is also electronic money which will make physical money obsolete as well. I am just curios why you put […]

U.S. Share Market Update

The primary difference between the DOW, S&P 500, and the NASDAQ is capital flows, not what composes each index. All the way up, the DOW was the first to make new highs, with the other two following the DOW’s lead. Now, the cash flows are showing a broader diversification and the S&P 500 is a […]
