We discuss the likely scenario in this important post. Read on to be ahead of the curve.

Stock Market Crash 2017

1/28/2017

Many market experts are calling for a market crash in 2017, including a bond market crash. They also did every year since 2012. I never did up to now, as I called steady growth and asset price inflation for 5 years. Unless a political shock comes in the USA such as an impeachment or a Euro shock such as Le Pen elected, I do not see a likely stock or bond market crash for 2017… but I DO see significant risk for 2018-2019. Read on for the full story.

Will Trump be Impeached?

1/22/2017

0 Comments

 
Other than himself and his inability for self control, good judgement, or sound policy thinking, Trump's worst enemy is reality. In his Presidential address, the new President mentions a few things that are true and positive: the explicit recognition that the middle class is suffering and stagnating; the USA needs major infrastructure upgrading; teaching and school need to be a priority; job creation and production in the USA need to be made "attractive" for companies, etc. This is fine. However, he also implicitly suggests that the "solutions" to many problems will be found in "protection" with a military upgrade and a boosted law enforcement, along with "eradicating extremist Islam from the face of the earth." Excuse me, but: LOL! His policy agenda also suggests a general detaxation of the upper incomes and corporations. Let's explore the "collision course with reality" that this presidency is at risk of embarking on as of right now and how this can end with impeachment.
