The French actor Gerard Depardieu has left France and was publicly ridiculed for not wanting to turn over 75% of his wealth. Gerard has fired back and is clearly pissed-off how he was treated in France and sent an open letter to the Prime Minister. He writes that he paid EUR 145 million taxes in 45 […]

The one resounding thing that emerged from this world tour and holding conferences in US, Asia, and Europe, was that there is a universal rising tide that realizes something is seriously wrong. In having our computer forecast every market around the world, the benefit was that the analysis is the same, without emotion, and void […]
