Literally the same shit anhero hedge has been saying for 15 years and plus "Trump a clown hurr durr."

Just admit you don't know how much gas is really in the tank and you liked the blog post because it validates your emotions.
According to the Fed themselves, the plan is to unload bonds at $60b per month this year. They're also raising rates, just as the 10y bonds issued in 2008 are maturing.

Of course, they can magicreate more money, but that money supply creates inflation - which we're now seeing in the DXY. At this rate, half of your money will be gone by Christmas. There is no ambiguity, no mystery, and no confusion on this. The "gas in the tank" is provided by our reserve status, which is now being directly threatened by China.

As my favorite show "Billions" would say - I am not uncertain.

Bonds are always worthless when they are a sure thing shit for brains. Unload those fuckers because they are going negative by inflation. If you want to buy bonds why not try Nigeria? China owns them and they just built a high speed rail. Now that's where you go to speculate you fucking nunce.

Lolno. I'll be purchasing puts on Monday, thanks. And hopefully I can make it to the coin store this weekend, to buy some more gold for the kids.

We still haven’t seen 3% growth, and it’s actually down for Q4 ‘17. The dollar is declining at an alarming pace so far this year, but nobody cares because the stock market is blowing the roof off.

Things will look very different by spring.
But we saw 3.2% growth Q3 and it isn't like Q4 was unhealthy. 2.6% is still a strong growth level.

What's so bad about a declining dollar? It was pretty obvious Trump was going to lead to a declining dollar considering the constant mentions of bringing domestic industry back. One of the major ways of stimulating domestic industry is making international industry expensive, which requires a weak dollar. Why does this show some impending doom?

Nothing, unless you happen to have dollars. Or buy imported things with them. Or want to save them for your kids.

The foreign exchange rate is just the canary in the coal mine, for domestic inflation. Once that starts to take hold, we're in real trouble. It also means that the stock market has entered a blow-off phase, which will come crashing down shortly - thanks to absurd leverage and margin levels. We've broken every record for excessive speculation, blowing right past the marks in 2007. Once that happens, businesses start shutting down, and things get weird, quick.

We survived 2008 with relatively little damage, because of the TARP and extreme QE spending. I'd argue that we would have been much better off by now without it, but it happened. And while it stopped a depression, it kicked off the biggest bubble the world has ever seen. When this thing ends, we are facing a complete re-ordering of economics and global systems. This is not going to be "just another one".

To put it in simple terms - we saved the banks, by handing them the treasury. Now they're going to take the rest.

Enjoy your shiny rocks you abject retard. You don't even own A GUN. You come here doomsday preaching and you're literally posting about how much gold you're going to buy and how unarmed your family is. Even if what you think is true you are woefully unprepared for it and frankly, I don't believe you believe it. You watched a couple Ron Paul videos and decided they make sense and since you think Trump is a clown you share your favorite crack pot economist blog posts that agree with you. Ultimately this is about self validation for you but get, if it FEELZ good do it

Valid point. I do need to learn how to shoot. In the meantime, I'll gladly lay down my life for my kids.

I don't think we go Mad Max from this - at least not in the short term. More likely, it will be a martial law situation, and Great Depression 2.0. Some of the cities will no doubt have massive riots, and I wouldn't want to be in DC anytime soon, but it's not the end of the world. I hope.

Just get a shotgun at Wallyworld and go to a gunshop that has a range and instructors and tell them you want to purchase and learn to shoot a rifle. You don't need to turn to tacticool faggotry you see on YouTube prepper channels.

I work about 2 blocks from a gun range. Never occurred to me to just walk in there and ask for training. Is that a thing that people do?

Yep. If they have a range, they likely have instructors. If not, they can direct you to the right place.
