Just another Ponzi scheme to suck up more money into the black that is Washington DC and feed the political class.

Gold to be or Not to Be

Re-Posted Oct 4, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
QUESTION: Marty; I won a bet against a goldbug. He bet gold would soar and the dollar would crash October 1st because of the SDR and said you would be exposed as a fraud. I won the $100 bet. I tried to bet an ounce of gold, but he would do that.
I too studied Latin. Remember Julius Caesar your favorite: Fere libenter homines, id quod volunt, credunt – People almost always willingly believe what you want (De Bello Gallico, III, 18). That is their whole problem. They want something so bad they are blind to everything around them. You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink.
With gold down at 1275, when is your next video update?

ANSWER: Yes I admired Caesar. But he forgave his enemies and they killed him for his generosity.
You cannot enlighten certain people because they have too much invested in their beliefs. There are people who will vote for Hillary no matter what as there are people who will vote Republican no matter what. There is always those who just believe and never question.
I will update a video soon. The timing is not right for gold to break out. It failed to elect the Monthly Bullish and then failed to elect the Quarterly Bullish Reversal despite the fact it was much lower. Gold rallied right to that reversal and bounced off. That was the kiss of death.
People are still uncertain about the future. They have no idea which way to go with this year from Political Hell. Will do a Private Blog Update for tomorrow.

Obama & Martial Law

Re-Posted Oct 4, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
The rumors for years that Obama would call Martial Law to stay in the White House were rather stupid. This is not a power-hungry guy. He plays golf more than anyone and misses more than 60% of his national briefings. The ONLY rumor that comes from behind the curtain and not the internet is what I just reported regarding setting the stage for a Trump win and blaming it on Putin.
You have to understand that Trump is against Nation Building. For all the things he says crazy or not, that one hit home. He is of course right on this issue, but now you are threatening the powers behind the throne. That is why they say he is not presidential because he is against invading the world and is an isolationist. Some say the CIA assassinated JFK for such a reason and Nixon knew it wired the place, not to mention he was mocked for creating what they called his “palace guard“. To what extent those rumors are true or not really does not matter. There is logic in this one, which is disconcerting.
The only possible way I can see a Martial Law decree is that Obama does what he is told. I would not attribute this one to Obama’s personal ego. He would rather be playing golf. They are in all out war against Trump because they are afraid of him on so many fronts. On the Hill, he will have the veto pen and may fire their family and mistresses from cushy jobs. The military, NSA, CIA, enjoy National Building. That is where the real power lies. Yes, Obama might be a Democrat and the full corruption of politics may burst on to the scene. Nonetheless, Obama want’s to just play golf. I would not attribute this to his desire to remain in power. This is the power behind the throne where the REAL Game of Thrones is played out and we have no power to vote yes or no.
So indeed. We may be looking at November that is a key target for a turning point in many markets on our timing arrays and they are not fundamentally based. Those who prepare move the flow of capital in advance and that it will pick up. It does not say who or why. It just says it’s on the move.
So do I think martial law would actually be called? I would not put it past Washington. However, it would be possible that Obama would step down and the reigns of power were passed to Joe Biden. Obama is preparing for war against Russia. That must is clear. A Trump victory may be the excuse to blame Russia. Pay attention.

Saturday Night Live did a great skit on the presidential debate that is probably closer to our choices than what mainstream media will ever portray.
