We will soon release Phase One of Socrates this month as was demonstrated at the Solution Conference. Yes, it has taken longer than expected but we had to be sure the transition to the Web Access would work as seamlessly as possible. We will not be able to open up the ability to talk and […]

QUESTION: Dear Martin, When you comment upon the majority of your analysis, I assume it is from a domestic (US oriented) perspective, looking out at the world.For instance, when you comment upon real assets such as gold, or silver (a stance which I agree with, incidentally) I assume that this is a position from the […]

COMMENT: Hi Marty, I must say your analysis of the dow for the last six months is simply mind blowing. Everything you said has been accurate. You are right that most will not get what your saying because they are stuck in a linear world – not a dynamic world. You did say markets would churn […]

With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to […]

COMMENT: Remember the musical Cats or Les Miserables; the 60’s songs “Ruby, don’t take your love to town” & “Billy don’t be a hero”; Ralph Nader’s “Only the Super Rich Can Save Us”; Bob Geldorf’s “BandAid”; Earth Hour or New Years? If only your work were similarly processed, your message would go viral globally. Imagine a […]

  NATO wants to take back the Crimea from Russia. The US wants to send in arms to Ukraine. All of this has provoked a response from Putin that has escalated the stakes.
