China’s President Xi Begs the Fed Not to Ease Rates

Chinese President Xi Jinping has a request for Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell — do not raise interest rates. “If major economies slam on the brakes or take a U-turn in their monetary policies, there would be serious negative spillovers. They would present challenges to global economic and financial stability, and developing countries would bear […]

Thank you & the Interesting Times We Live In

I just want to say thank you for all the emails I have been getting. These are difficult times, indeed. Nevertheless, the upside is that these tumultuous times are the precursor to reform we all long for. We are all in this together and I am fighting for my grandchildren. I will be gone so […]

Supreme Court Rulings – Very Interesting

The Supreme Court blocked an Alabama Judge who was going to allow “curbside voting” as if this was MacDonalds’ drive-through. In a 5-3 decision, the court blocked the judge and allows the appeals to take place. This decision touches on something that is seriously wrong with the entire federal election process. Every state just does […]

Is Socrates Really Different than the Major AI Systems of even IBM & Google?

QUESTION: Martin, I know you have your AI in Socrates, but do you really believe that entities like DARPA with teams of people have never created a classified AI system or multiple AI systems that are suppressed from public knowledge? I think you may be overlooking governments’ ability to suppress plans as they were able […]

We All Act in Our Self-Interest

COMMENT: IS MARTIN ARMSTRONG AND SOCRATES THE MOST HUMANE BEINGS ON THE PLANET? Dear Martin and Socrates, I have been following you two for many years, often with a byrds eye view.

Socrates & its Forecast of Shortages in Food for this 8.6-Year Wave

  COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong; I am beyond impressed with the forecast your computer puts out. More than a year in advance you forecast that this wave would be inflationary but due to shortages in food. I do not know how it makes such an interesting forecast, but nobody out there can even come close which […]

Socrates & the Whole

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong – as a subscriber to Socrates, I find it remarkable how prescient its analyses have been. (Wish I were a better trader to benefit more financially! But that’s another story – live & learn. At least Socrates has kept me out of trouble, so far.) My observation/question is, now that Vermont has gone […]

The Fed is Acting Precisely on the Forecasts of Socrates

The Federal Reserve called a third emergency meeting to combat the economic impact of the unprecedented hyped coronavirus. A lot of emails have come in noting that Socrates had forecast the first interest rate cut by the Fed and its next target was March 23rd as we published back on March 3rd. Many have asked […]

Jawboning the Fed on Cutting Rates

COMMENT: Hello Martin, I see President Trump is still calling for interest rate cuts from the Fed. I know he is a businessman and with the current situation is he making the right call with all his business knowledge? ( not sure the reason for the name-calling?) Trump presses ‘pathetic’ Fed to cut rates more […]

Me v Socrates

  One of the more fascinating things is when people try to challenge me as an analyst and pretend it is a personal confrontation to try to prove me wrong personally. I have stated many times, whenever I have had a personal opinion that has been counter to Socrates, it is me who has always […]
