Investment analyst warns of another dot-com-style crash as stocks still get next-to-nothing returns

7 days ago -

One of Wall Street's biggest bears even in the face of the market's eight percent rally in 2024 and top two percent fund manager Bill Smead, Chief Investment Officer with Smead Capital Management, told Business Insider that stocks appear to be in the midst of a speculative bubble, which could set investors up for a "dead ball" era of performance.

The skepticism comes despite the S&P 500 rising sharply in recent months, even hitting new record highs in March, after a 24 percent ...

The years since the Great Financial Crisis have been one giant and ridiculous ride that has attempted to deny reality in order to avoid the pain of making meaningful corrections in how our economy works, which has gone from major money printing in 2008 to bigger money printing in each subsequent numbered round of QE to the absolutely grandiose money printing necessary to save the economy during the insane Covid ...

The money will be used to purchase 13 hydrogen fuel cell buses to replace 13 diesel-powered counterparts in the county's Ride On fleet, the report added.

The EVERYTHING BUBBLE, led by bonds, is about to BURST – just in time for WWIII

October 22, 2023 -

Take the ongoing "bond bloodbath," as Wolf Richter calls it. Delusions about the Federal Reserve's fight with inflation are finally giving way as reality sets in that inflation is not going away. It is not transitory like notorious liar Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen kept saying, and there does not really appear to be any way to stop it.

Long-term yields are right at the point of breaking 5 percent – the last time this happened was in 2007, and we all know what happened ...

Brace yourself: Ongoing Treasury bond collapse ranks among worst in market crash history – and the carnage has only just begun

October 09, 2023 -

According to reports, Treasury bonds with maturities of 10 years or more have plummeted 46 percent since March 2020 when the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) "pandemic" was declared as cover for the hemorrhaging financial system and mini-crash that occurred around that same time.

To keep the bubble market INFLATED before the CRASH, Zillow is now offering 1% down-payment home loans

August 30, 2023 -

As you may recall, the banks started offering all sorts of bizarre, subprime mortgages right before the markets went off a cliff. Some of those loans were confiscatory while others involved seriously risky adjustable rates.

To make a long story short, the whole thing imploded in time, and we are once again watching the same pot start to boil over as those who hold the purse strings of the American economy bring us into the late stage of the bubble before it bursts.

The globalist endgame for America’s economy is HYPERINFLATION followed by COLLAPSE

June 28, 2023 - dot com bubble burst. Oh, and the Russian ruble has been getting steadily stronger while the UK pound has been getting steadily weaker."

The corporate-controlled media will not even admit that a recession is occurring, as bad as that is, let alone fess up to the fact that a large-scale depression the likes of which this world has never seen is soon to drop.

"No one alive has ever seen anything like it – since there has never been anything like it," Coleman says ...

At this moment, our national debt is sitting at $33,836,693,993,860.35.

It is probably going to hit 34 trillion dollars by the end of the year.

To put this into perspective, when Barack Obama first entered the White House we were about 10 trillion dollars in debt.

We are literally committing national suicide, but for a long time most Americans didn’t really care because we were not experiencing ...

Wall Street financial analyst: Washington is pressuring the Fed to project robust economy in time for 2024 elections

a month ago -

However, expectations of a Fed pivot keep getting pushed back. "I don’t think it's likely that the committee will reach a level of confidence by the time of the March meeting to identify March as the time to do that," Fed Chair Jerome Powell said of possible cuts at the Fed's January meeting. The sentiment is shared by John Rubino, founder of DollarCollapse.com, Wall Street financial analyst and renowned book author. He believes that the Fed will not pivot and so everybody who is ...

U.S. government’s “outlawing” of financial recession GUARANTEES an upcoming massive COLLAPSE

February 20, 2024 -

Every so-called "recession" since 1981-82 has not truly been the real thing as recessions have effectively been outlawed by the powers that be. Monetary policy is such that the American "free market" economy is never truly allowed to correct itself because the Ponzi Protection Team is always right there to rig it back up again.

Each time this happens, the bubble economy grows larger and larger. Eventually it will pop no matter how they try to rig it, and the longer ...

Polly Trottenberg, the deputy secretary of the Department of Transportation (DOT), spoke at a DOT safety forum and warned that seat belt usage has gone down in trucking and other sectors.

Quietly outside of public view, those in control have made a series of regulatory changes preceding the coming collapse that basically dispossessed the American people of all our property. Most Americans have no idea this happened, but when the rubber meets the road, they will learn in an instant that their lives and futures have been stolen from them.

Paul Craig Roberts unpacked the issue in a three-part series called "The Great Dispossession" that the bubble will, in fact, ...

December 25, 2023 -

According to Dent, who appeared on Fox Business this week to discuss his predictions for 2024, the money printing madness that has been occurring since 2009 will eventually take its toll like never before in history.

"Since 2009, this has been 100 percent artificial, unprecedented money printing and deficits: $27 trillion over 15 years, to be exact," Dent said. "This is off the charts, 100 percent artificial, which means we're in a dangerous state."

Twelve undeniable signs globalists are engineering the end of humanity

July 30, 2023 -

Mainstream media now frequently talks about "climate lockdowns" as a good thing -- to cease human activity on planet Earth in order to "save the planet" from so-called climate change, a wholesale fabrication and fake science fraud rooted in the lie that carbon dioxide is somehow bad for life on the planet. (Without it, there would be no photosynthesis, no plants, no animals and no humans.)

Now, corporate media is openly calling for climate blackouts and lockdowns, the rationing ...

Texas facing ANOTHER power grid collapse amid intense winter weather spell

January 18, 2024 -

ERCOT issued a conservation request to business and private customers this week asking them to keep things low or off, particularly during times of peak power demand and low energy production.

It is no secret that when temperatures drop, winds tend to die down....
