Where do US Multi-Nationals Hold Offshore Cash These Days?

What are US multi-nationals doing with the $2 trillion they keep offshore? Looking at the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) disclosures shows that Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Cisco Systems hold about 10% of their offshore cash in US government debt, which earns these companies substantial sums in interest. So they are earning interest in dollars while parking money […]

Computer Charlatans?

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; One cannot ignore the number of people who are pretending to have AI computer systems when they have no computer skills whatsoever and wouldn’t know the first thing about AI. I have investigated the industry and nobody has employed any machine learning capability to even match what your Global Market Watch does. […]

The Political End is Very Near & Markets Know It

QUESTION: Mr Armstrong; I am witnessing everything you have warned was coming right down to the stock market rise with gold and the dollar. Nobody has put such a possibility even forward. The goldbugs only talk about how the stock market must crash with the dollar so buy gold. Even with gold rising they are […]

The Euro on the Brink of Disaster

  We are looking at the collapse of Europe unfold much faster than anyone suspected. I have been warning that the Continental EU banks are in serious trouble.

Trump may give us some frank insults that are badly needed now and then to keep people focused, but the Clintons will provide never-ending intrigue and scandals. Now […]

Declining Pound Savior of Britain

QUESTION: Marty It looks like Carney and Osborne are talking the pound down in order to frighten people. Only one of their prophesies have come true – the lower value of sterling. But it is unhelpful that they continue to be negative – even though they’ve proved to have been wrong on all the other things […]

Fate of the Euro

QUESTION: Dear Mr Armstrong. I attended the Berlin conference and already enrolled for Orlando as well. I have a question regarding the EURO. It is obvious that the EU cannot be sustained as is. I think, so far, I do understand the decline of the EURO. We see it happen. But Germany and France are vigorously […]

Euro Closes for June at 11095

The euro closed for June on the cash feed at 11095, which was just a hair under the May low of 11098. This is not a Reversal, but merely a technical indication of weakness. Support during July lies at the 10880-10810 area, and resistance begins at 11220 and 11440 with the major technical resistance way […]

The Pound & BREXIT

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong; I voted for remain. Contrary to the post of a very biased Brit, there is a “rift” and the person who arrogantly wrote to you clearly lives in another world. I have changed my mind and would vote to leave. What you simply wrote that Merkel made the decision on refugees by […]
