There is no better predictor of future warfare than capital flows. We have witnessed capital fleeing danger time and time again, nearly always indicating a significant event was underway before the headlines could capture the moment. The internet is buzzing with a new tongue-in-cheek predictor of US warfare—the pizza index.
The pizza index or pizza meter theorizes that there is an uptick in pizza orders from Washington D.C., namely near the Pentagon, during major crises. America maintains it had no involvement in Israel’s attack on Iran. On June 12, social media users began reporting that the Pentagon pizza index was rising as there was a surge in deliveries surrounding the Pentagon and other defense buildings. At least four pizzerias reported a surge in orders one hour before the first strike.

The Soviet Union was the first to develop this theory, which they called, Pizzint, during the Cold War. Soviet intelligence began tracking pizza orders near the Pentagon and CIA headquarters with intense scrutiny. The Soviets were known for thinking outside the box and developing unconventional strategies for warfare that were often dismissed by other nations. The Soviets believed that a sudden spike in deliveries indicated officials were working extended hours, and Americans’ love for pizza became their tell.
The phenomenon does carry some accuracy. Prior to the Gulf War in 1990, a Domino’s franchise owner by the name of Frank Meeks reported that he received a massive uptick in orders for pizza to the Pentagon and CIA headquarters. Other pizzerias noted a similar pattern, especially on the night that led to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. Nighttime pizza orders rose from 3 to 101 per night in the week leading up to hostilities. The night before the battle began, pizza orders to US intelligence offices surpassed 300.
The same phenomenon occurred numerous times, such as the night before US interventions in Grenada (1983) and Panama (1989). The meter proved accurate for other significant political events, such as the impeachment hearings for President Bill Clinton in 1998.

Socrates noted that June 1 would lead to a significant global event. Sorry, we do not have pizza tracking in our algorithm. Interestingly, an X account called Pentagon Pizza Report noted that the Domino’s closest to the Pentagon was experiencing abnormally high traffic that day, which coincided with Ukraine’s massive attack on Russia.
Officials are required to work late, tethered to their desks. An uptick in pizza orders before important events is quite an interesting theory and there are now hundreds of social media accounts dedicated to tracking pizza deliveries in the D.C. area. Perhaps intelligence officials should begin ordering takeout elsewhere.

A billion-dollar company went bankrupt nearly overnight when it was revealed that their AI software was simply a group of 700 Indians in a data center providing users with responses. Builder.ai was valued at $1.5 billion and attracted major investors such as Microsoft.
The company engaged in what is known as “round-tripping” with VerSe Innovation, an Indian social media firm, where each company billed the other for similar amounts in order to inflate sales. Investors were misled, as they believed the company was performing well.
Builder.ai declared their 2024 revenue to be $220 million, which was later revised to $55 million. In 2023, they initially claimed to gross $180 in sales, but later revised this to $45 million. The company’s AI service “Natasha” was said to be a revolutionary development in AI. It turns out that Natasha was barely functional, and 700 Indian engineers performed most of the coding.
The company is facing insolvency hearings in jurisdictions across India, the US, and the UK. The company now has significant outstanding debts for unpaid cloud services, owing Microsoft $30 million and Amazon $85 million.
We are amid an AI start-up boom where countless companies are claiming to offer real AI services. This is a cautionary tale, as not all startups are operating on real AI platforms. Builder.ai was able to deceive even Microsoft. Proceed with caution.

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I attended your 2011 conference in Philadelphia. I was dragged there by a friend. You mentioned the war cycle resurfacing in 2014, and I didn’t believe it. I have read your criticism of Ukraine, and now Israel has not been trying to get Trump to attack Iran. You are correct, Zelensky is trying to get NATO to strike Russia first, claiming they are planning to invade the Baltic using a military drill in Belarus. Between the Neocons, Zelensky, and now Israel, all trying to get the US into war, any doubt I had about your models was ill-founded. You have paid with years of your life trying to help society. As is often said, no good deed goes unpunished.
You have demonstrated that there is a cycle to everything. I was told you are not married because you never found your companion, like Milton Friedman, whom you envied, is what I heard. Perhaps you will one day find that person who understands and appreciates your calling in life.
Thank you for your courage and endurance.

ANSWER: Thank you for the cartoon of Milton and Rose. Milton had a very special relationship with Rose, who, by the way, was born in Ukraine when it was the Russian Empire before the USSR. They met in school and had the same interests – economics. I seriously doubt I would ever find such a person; it’s getting too late in life anyway.
I believe that Zelensky is such a piece of shit, he is beyond description. He is a traitor to Ukraine for he was pretending to be Christian and was a NeoNazi. He became Jewish ONLY after he became president to hide the fact that he was a NeoNazi.
The New York Times even published this piece about Ukrainian Nazis how they killed here a Jewish mother holding the hand of her child. They killed her, but threw the child in the grave because they did not waste bullets on children. They cut the babies out of pregnant women and sewed a live cat into the womb. What the Ukrainians were doing even horrified the German Nazis. the CIA protected the Ukrainian Nazis only because they hated Russians as well. That is where we are today with the press cheering every blow against Russia and refusing to look at the facts.
The Ukrainisn NeoNazi’s hated anyone who was NOT Ukrainian. They carried out genocide against Poles, Hungarians, and Russians as well as Jews. Like George Soros who pretend to be Christian to also hide from the Nazis, Zelensky was the same.
Here is Zelensky before becoming president, joking about confiscating the assets of Jews and Russians. He became a Jew only to hide his past.
Biden’s Neocons were all Ukrainian Jews claiming that their families were persecuted by Russians. So all three supported Ukrainian NeoNazis all because they hated Russins. Garland brought all sorts of charges against Trump, trying to prevent him from taking office because he was anti-war.
This ethnic hatred produced World War I when a Serbian assassinated the heir to the throne of Austria. This hatred will bring us into World War III. The hatred is surfacing everywhere. I do not see a way out – sorry.

COMMENT: Marty, I have been with you since 1987. I have watched your Economic Confidence Model blow everyone out of the water, and your critics are just idiots who are either genuinely just stupid or they are paid by the “club” to try to prevent people from listening to you. Anyone who criticizes you is not trustworthy. The world should take notice of what you discovered. I saw your ECM predict the 1987 crash to the day. The Japanese Crash. The 1998 July 20th high in the markets. The 2002 low. There are so many events on the exact day that there can be no dispute that this is not your opinion, yet people try to ignore you, and others hate you. Now, May 15th was the exact day for the peach talks, and June 2nd was Russia’s Pearl Harbor. Everyone should send letters demanding that you get the Nobel Peace Prize for humanity’s sake.

REPLY: I understand what you are saying. Yes, I can see that a Nobel Prize might help focus attention on the reality of cycles. However, the Economic Confidence Model is something I bumped into, and I had assumed it would be an average. Never in my wildest imagination did I ever expect that such a model would work precisely to the day for countless geopolitical events, like 911, to the very day, and the same exact frequency picks the events here in May to June 2025.
I just do not know. Do I deserve a Nobel Prize for something I myself cannot entirely explain that exists when all the conventional thinking says that it can’t be? I am working diligently on my next book, the Economic Confidence Model. Perhaps then let the world judge. How many coincidences does it take to prove there is a hidden order lurking behind the appearance of random chaos?
