Today’s market closes are very import to the future of the next several years.


Closings Today will be the Year-End Signals

2015-2016

 

The Holiday Schedule is below. The closing for our models will be TODAY and for the most part this will be a full normal day.

We are hovering around our year-end numbers in many markets from gold and the pound to oil and the Dow, which if it closes lower than last year 17823.07, then there is a risk that we will see further consolidation in 2016 and the Phase Transition will be far worse pointing to 2017-2020.  As we move into 2017, this will be the year from Political Hell since the direction of the world is on the brink with political elections which may yet prove to be a revolution and generational shift in so many countries not the least will be the US elections in November 2016.

Silver is already below its key number warning it is weaker than gold. Gold is trying to hold on to 1044, but the day is just starting. The S&P500 number for the close will be 205890 whereas in the DAX it lies at 1036700. In the British pound, the number is 15200, but the main number will be 146.12. Of course in Crude, the key number will be 35.11.

This is just a few markets. Today’s close will signal what is to come for 2016.

Hugh Hewitt Points Out Trump Educating A Generation of Millennials About The Clintons…


It will be interesting to see if anyone brings back these ladies to tell the stories about Bill and Hillary in person again. Of course that would be dangerous as many that have gone against the Clinton’s are no longer with us!

DOES HILLARY HAVE A “CONTROL BILL PLAN” ?


The real war on women was and is from the the Clinton’s on women and the general in the war leading to troops (the media) is Hillary herself. This will be an interesting 12 months!

A. L. Luttrell's avatarARLIN REPORT...................walking this path together

They just won’t go away will they Hillary?   Will guess what, we do believe them.   Slick Willie has a history, can’t keep it to himself, you know what I mean!

Hillary seems to suddenly have a solution or a plan for every political topic she’ll encounter.  Its her typical campaign BS.  “I have a plan.”   We just never know what the plan is, except taking your guns away,  she has no plan on how, and she won’t deport illegal immigrants.   That is Hillary’s plan, do nothing.

If there are enough crazy, mental voters out there to actually elect Hillary to the Big White House, will Hillary have a plan, a plan to keep more trashy women (her words not mine) from entering the White House to mingle with Willie?  Does Hillary have a “Control Bill Plan?  I think not, if she has it hasn’t worked, dating…

State Lawmakers Prep Gun Control Policies For 2016


Well the assault on the 2nd amendment begins and has it builds we will end up in a civil war; I hope that that wasn’t what they wanted.

deacon303's avatarWhiskey Tango Foxtrot

State lawmakers are scheduled to consider stricter firearms policies when they return to their respective capitol buildings in January.

In Illinois, a bill introduced by a Democratic state lawmaker in late December would revoke a citizen’s firearms owner ID card and result in the seizure of the individual’s firearms, if the person’s name is added to the FBI terror watch list.

A Nevada Democratic state senator announced a similar bill on Dec. 14 that would “prohibit those on the Federal No-Fly List from purchasing firearms in Nevada.” The bill echoes legislation that recently failed to pass Congress.

Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg’s operatives are also pushing to get an initiative on the 2016 Nevada ballot that would criminalize private transfers of firearms. Bloomberg-funded groups are heading to other states like Maine and Arizona to propose similar gun control initiatives.

Similarly, a New Mexico Democrat state representative pre-filed a…

GET READY FOR OBAMAPOCALYPSE 2016!


This is no joke it is is last year and he still has a long ways to go to destroy the country, its harder that he thought!

More support for the Strong Dollar!


China Shuts down FOREX at Foreign Banks to Try to Stop Dollar Rise

central_bank_china

China has suspended FOREX business at three main foreign banks in an effort to curb the outflow of capital into the rising dollar. This is an interesting attempt to curb the rise in the dollar and it is clearly showing the overall trend in motion.

$CHINA-M 12-1-2015

 

It is interesting that China has taken this approach for we have elected ALL FOUR of the Monthly Bullish Reversals from the January 1st, 2014 low in the dollar confirming the change in trend. We still recommend that China just float its currency for the West will blame it for manipulation when in fact the global trend is toward a strong dollar into 2017.

The army is “Loyal” to whom? Brussels Has no elected members!


The European Army Loyal to Brussels Only

Army Trrops

The EU is using the Muslim invasion and Paris attack as a means to achieve its dream of federalizing Europe. They are now moving to create a European Army, answerable only to Brussels. This has been the agenda all along. They will get there. It’s just a question of the media manipulating the public into their open arms for power. They are already creating a special “Rapid Forces Division” with German and Dutch troops.

The beginning of the end of cash in the EU


Happy New Year — Bail-In Passed for Europe’s Banks

ECB

The mainstream media is not extensively reporting on the “experimental” bail-in that the EU imposed on Cyrus. The bail-in, that they swore would never be applied to Europe, will officially begin in January. This new power will be in the interest of taxpayers as they will no longer be forced to pay for failed banks that were created by the childish structure of the euro that was created by lawyers who never understood the economy. But wait a minute — aren’t taxpayers the people with deposits in banks? Hm. Moving to electronic money is also about preventing bank runs. The bottom-line here is that they will just take your money to save bankers. Eliminating cash accomplishes two things: (1) they get to tax everything, and (2) you cannot withdraw money from banks.

The bail-in directive was agreed upon on January 1, 2015, and the bail-in system will take effect on January 1, 2016. So here we are, just in case you missed this one. Their website states:

Parliament and Council Presidency negotiators reached a political agreement Wednesday on the draft bank recovery and resolution directive, the first step towards setting up an EU system to deal with struggling banks. This directive will introduce the “bail-in” principle by January 2016, thereby ensuring that taxpayers will not be first in line to pay for bank failures.

The entire system of insuring banks after their collapse during the Great Depression was to restore confidence to end the hoarding and revitalize the economy. Now they have allowed bankers to do everything they did before, and they have reversed the insurance created to restore confidence in banking. They justify this by claiming taxpayers will not have to pay for the failed banks.

FDR-Fireside Chat

Over 9,000 banks failed during the Great Depression in the United States; an estimated 4,000 banks failed in 1933 alone. Roosevelt’s fifteen-minute radio address to the American people on Sunday evening, March 12, was his first Fireside Chat. He told the public that only sound banks would be licensed to reopen by the U.S. Treasury: “I can assure you that it is safer to keep your money in a reopened bank than under the mattress.”

1933 NYT Bank Holiday

1933 Detroit Money Returned to Banks

1933 40percent deposite to be paid

When the institutions reopened for business on March 13, 1933, depositors stood in line to return their hoarded cash to neighborhood banks. Within two weeks, Americans had redeposited more than half of the currency that they had withdrawn from the banks due to the collapse in confidence.

Banks failed even after the bank holiday. The process was indeed a “bail-in”. People would get whatever the scraps were worth upon the collapse of the bank. Absolutely everything the governments did to restore confidence has been reversed in Europe. Yet, they try to “stimulate” the economy with QE? Just brain-dead.

The Dow for Year-End – Will it All Just Go Nuts for 2017?

DJIND-Y 12-29-2015

The Dow Jones Industrials still remains in a bullish posture on a broader perspective. The real critical support will lie at 16500 and the Panic Support is well below the market at 13100. Panic Support is the level that if breached intraday, this is where a Panic Crash unfolds. That is the real important level for 2016, but it does not appear to be in the cards. Otherwise, a closing for 2015 above 16500 is still moderately bullish whereas the technical levels will be 17345 and 18879.

DJFOR-Y 12-19-2015

We will be issuing the World Share Market Review after the first of the year overing North & South America, Europe, Middle East, and AustralsAsia as well as Asia from India and China up to Japan. We will also discuss the prospect for a continued sideways market for 2016 with the potential for the Phase Transition unfolding 2017-2020.

Keep in mind that the Bail-In becomes a formal European position January 1st, 2016, and 2017 is when G20 begins swapping info on everyone everywhere. Capital is being herded with no doubt and the smart money will begin to position itself realize it is time to get off the GRID. We have the Presidential elections in the USA at year-end and this too will help keep the markets guessing – Trump v Hillary or will the Republicans split entirely as they desperately try to force their own pick as the Republican candidate in a dictatorial move as they have done before.

Yet 2017 will see elections in Europe both in France and Germany. Of course we will also have the British vote to leave the EU. So looking at this agenda of fundamental chaos, it is not that hard to see why the computer is showing it all goes nuts starting in 2017. The question we will address is shall 2017 be a REACTION LOW with the false move before the breakout or a high with the meltdown afterwards?
