COMMENT: Marty, one of the comments on the Mises Institution site says it all. You are never wrong. I have to admit. I was a goldbug and listened to the bullshit as you call it. Yet this action in gold has proven not merely were you correct in saying gold would pop, it has nothing […]

  Here are transcripts of the WEC since the Movie Producers filmed everything since 2011. They had transcripts made and can search a topic and come up with the time I discussed it. 4:11:02 “Alright, I’ll pay more, but he’s paying 75 so that makes it ok.” This is what’s going on. Every time in the cycle […]

  At the Berlin World Economic Conference I delivered the same forecast we gave to the Swiss – the EURO/SWISS PEG COULD NOT HOLD.  Indeed, its lasted about Pi 3.14 years before the pressure really built and 3.3 years it cracked. Who is to blame? The Swiss? Or does the blame belong to Brussels and […]

MISES WEEKENDS with Jeff Deist and the interview of Martin Armstrong on Black Thursday – January 15, 2015. Jeff was the former Chief of Staff of Capitol Hill for Ron Paul. He now heads the Mises Institute.

Now comes the second clever trick. Justice Department’s new program is called Operation Choke Point. This program equates legal gun stores with escort […]

The move in the Swiss was extraordinary because of the massive short-Swiss through loans and their own buying of Euros. The audacity of the IMF to even state they will look into this as if they have any such authority or credibility is just stunning. They want the inside info so they can line their […]

  Notice that the DAX has held up the best even against the Dow. Why? Capital continues to move within Europe to Germany assuming the Euro will crack and they will get Deutsche marks once again. Even the French CAC-40 illustrates that capital is starting to flee from PUBLIC to PRIVATE assets. Even Greek shares […]

Yes IMF’s Christine Lagarde says she was surprised she was not contacted by the Swiss. Lets get real. She has no credibility and could offer nothing to the world of finance since she is a lawyer with ZERO economic experience.

  It is being called Black Thursday. There was a tremendous natural short-position in the Swiss franc with all the people who borrowed Swiss to save on interest rates. True they saved interest. In return, they gained a 30% loss in currency. This natural short position from borrowing Swiss impacts mortgages in Britain down to […]
