International Tourism Collapses by 80%


Armstrong Economics Blog/Economics Re-Posted Oct 7, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

International tourism has plunged it looks like coming in at around 80% by the end of the year. The UN World Tourism Organisation says it will drop at least 60%. The result of this has contributed to what we see as unemployment over 300 million worldwide. This collapse in tourism is 100% post-April 2020. This is going to contribute greatly to rising civil unrest next year globally. The collapse in tourism has already put millions of workers out of work. Those economies that have a high reliance on tourism like Greece and Thailand will suffer a significant decline in their GDP. Thailand, for example, will see a fall beyond 90% for the year’s total numbers.

Just from tourism which composes of airlines, hotels, travel agents, and restaurants, we are estimating a loss on a global scale between 100 to 120 million tourism jobs at risk of being lost permanently. It has been international tourism that has been one of the main engines of the global economy which not only accounts for roughly 7% of all international trade, it has helped to create world peace by exposing people to all cultures. Global tourism has also contributed to the aviation industry, which has simultaneously dropped sharply thanks to this deliberate global lockdown. Tourism has been responsible for creating direct and indirect jobs, when looked at closely, actually has accounted for 1 out of 10 of ALL jobs worldwide.

After discussing with REAL SOURCES, the very proposal that lockdowns may be needed to save the planet since they have been able to reduce CO2 but cutting off international travel as well as commuting. This has been a deliberate effort to use this virus which has NOT been any more lethal than the flu and has impacted the elderly as is the case with the flu to shut down the world economy and destroy its underpinnings to open the door for this Great Reset being pushed by Klau Schwab and his World Economic Forum.

When we look at American Airlines, for example, the two most important turning points will be the 1st quarter of 2021 and 2022. We would need a Quarterly closing back abobve $35.50 just to raise any hope of normalcy. Nevertheless, as long as this low holds, we may be in for a fight against these people who are using the virus to lockdown the world economy to reduce CO2. Nevertheless, the number of Directional Changes appear to be confined to 2021 with volatility starting to rise going into 2022.

We most certainly live in interesting times.

The 2016 Soft Coup Unraveling


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption re-Posted Oct 6, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

The Coup Against Trump because he was anti-war and “not one of us” is unraveling deeper and deeper corruption which is leading right to Gina Haspel who is the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). They have contrived fake news and used it to go after everyone around Trump to disrupt his administration. Flynn is just the tip of the iceberg. The FBI is prohibited to penetrate and subvert any presidential campaign. Executive Order 12333, Section 2.9, “Undisclosed Participation in Organizations in the United States.” This expressly prohibits in very plain language any sort of intervention that arose from the U.S. Army Counterintelligence penetrating Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) to aid the FBI during the 1960s. Because of this prohibition, they viewed this as only prohibiting domestic intervention. That legal prohibition is why the FBI felt the need to manufacture a “foreign counterintelligence threat” in the UK and then “import” the investigation back into the United States.

However, this goes even further. Since the Steele dossier was paid for by Hillary, and the entire approval of investigating the Trump campaign in 2016 came implicitly from Obama and Biden, the corruption involving the infiltration of the 2016 Presidential Campaign was in itself a Soft Coup. Gina Haspel was the head of the London office of the CIA where everything was organized. The FBI needed to fabricate a foreign counterintelligence “event” in order to pretend this operation was legal. It is now Haspel who is refusing to declassify RussiaGate papers because it was her branch in the UK that was operationally the “friendliest” office to pull off this entire coup. Haspel was deeply involved which runs the risk of this even rising to the level of treason.

Sen. John McCain’s role in this coup explains a lot as to why he said he did not want Trump to speak at his funeral. It was McCain who handed the Steele dossier to Comey involving President Donald Trump. This was revealed in recently unsealed court filings. McCain previously had acknowledged getting a copy of the dossier, which was a compilation of memos written by former British spy Christopher Steele for he was friends with Hillary, and delivering it to then-FBI Director James Comey. McCain provided the cover for he was a Republican handing it to Comey rather than Hillary who paid for it. Moreover, it was also John McCain who was the sponsor of the Magnitsky Act which was a cover-up because of the Clinton’s approval of the bankers trying to take over Russia. (The film Magnitsky has been banned and removed from YouTube most likely at the demands of Bill Browder which only raises the probability that it was true)

https://youtube.com/watch?v=8MP2QaT2A_A%3Ffeature%3Doembed%26wmode%3Dopaque

However, the explosive dossier contained false accusations claiming the Russians had compromising information on Trump, which Comey is still trying to use publicly advising people to vote for Biden. This entire mess revolves around the US/NY bankers attempt to interfere in the 2000 Russian elections which forced Yeltsin to step down and brought Putin to power.

It was David Kramer who is involved with the McCain Institute for International Leadership which should be renamed the Institute for Soft Coups. Kramer was deposed in December 2017 as part of a legal battle waged by a Russian businessman Aleksej Gubarev over BuzzFeed’s publication of the dossier. The judge for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida unsealed the records adding even more interesting aspects to this Soft Coup.

Kramer Deposition

This election stands for a lot more than just who will be president. If President Trump is reelected, this might very well begin to DRAIN THE SWAMP. A victory for Biden would guarantee we will never hear another word about this Soft Coup. There is a lot at stake in this election that is so far beyond just the personality of the president. Trump needs to be very careful. These people will not think twice about eliminating him but probably by poison – they certainly do not what his picture on any money in the future.

Importance of Police/Army in a Revolution


Armstrong Economics Blog/Economics Re-Posted Oct 6, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

I have often explained that revolutions will be bloody if the army supports the government. Gaius Caesar Germanicus, we commonly refer to him by his childhood nickname Caligula (37-41AD), was the third emperor of Rome. While there are so many stories about him from his sex orgies to making his horse a senator, most of this was all FAKE NEWS generated by those who wanted to overthrow him and re-establish the Republic.

This Æ Sestertius struck at the Rome mint showing the legend ADLOCVT COH on the reverse, pictures Gaius standing left on daïs, extending a right hand in a gesture to address the Praetorian Guard.  COH in exergue means cohorts while ADLOCVT is his speech or allocation to the troops. He is acknowledging that he holds power over Rome only because of the support of the troops.

Caligula was murdered at the Palatine Games by Cassius Chaerea, a tribune of the Praetorian guard, Cornelius Sabinus, and others. Caligula’s wife Caesonia and his daughter were also put to death.  The murder of his wife and daughter demonstrated that this was an attempt to re-establish the Republic.

However, Chaerea did not control the loyalty of the majority of the Praetorians. Without an emperor, there was no need for the  Praetorians. As a result, they searched the palace to find Caligula’s uncle Claudius who was said to have stammered. They quickly proclaimed Claudius, as emperor and they seized Chaerea who was then sentenced to death. Chaerea requested to be executed with his personal sword, and this said to have been granted. Here is a gold aureus of Claudius picturing the Praetorian Camp also acknowledging that his power was because of the Praetorian Guard.

Here we have a valuable lesson from history. The government survives if the army/police are loyal to the state for, without the state, they become unemployed. Hence, many will fight for their personal privileges. Human nature never changes no matter how many hundreds of years may pass.

The Weight Of The World on Trump


President Trump has the weight of the world on his shoulders. In addition to world events, he’s been trying to make America great again despite COVID-19 and an ongoing coup by the Deep State. Plus he’s entering the home stretch of his reelection campaign. Now he must deal with the virus personally. Lesser men could not handle far less than this but Trump, like Atlas, will persevere. 

We at GrrrGraphics wish him and Melania a speedy recovery.

The Propaganda Game & Nothing But Blue Skies


Armstrong Economics Blog/BRITAIN

Re-Posted Oct 1, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: I don’t know if anyone has informed you of this, but the UK government is heavily advertising their new Track and Trace app on all platforms. I’ve seen it on Youtube, Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Google Ads and not to mention billboards on every street corner and bus stop. I’ve worked at an online marketing agency and I know the costs of these types of campaigns. The number of impressions and clicks must cost them a fortune. The ads are of the most persistent and visible kind, which are of course the most expensive ones.

Unless these big tech companies are giving them huge discounts, the costs don’t add up to the problem. If there’s a vaccine coming in a couple of months, this app shouldn’t have to be necessary after that anymore. So why use so much money in advertising an app that will be completely useless and mass-deleted in just a couple of months?

I have proof of this in the form of screenshots but unfortunately, I can’t seem to attach them in this contact form, but you could ask anyone who is in the UK right now and they could confirm it.

REPLY: Thank you for your input from your unique perspective. There is clearly an agenda here and they are indeed discussing in London using LOCKDOWNS to prevent climate change. Klaus Schwab has sold this idea that the economy can be restructured in less than a year and he is also in partners with Thomas Piketty, the French Communist economist who wants to confiscate all wealth from anyone who has more than him and redistribute it for he claims the problem with the economy is equality. These people do not believe in freedom, democracy, or human rights. They think we are the Great Unwashed — too stupid to know what is best so they have to force their ideas for our own good. What they paint in their academic world where experience is looked down upon as doing your own dishes (that’s what maids are for) is nothing but blue skies hidden behind their curtain. To accomplish their dreams, they must impose AUTHORITARIAN TYRANNY for our own good, of course.

The Markets & the Political Chaos into the Future – Where do we go?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Economics

Re-Posted Sep 28, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

Sometimes it is important to try to look at markets from an interrelated perspective. Here is the Dow/Gold Ratio which shows the extreme high in the Dow when gold made its historic low in 1999. We then see that gold rallied into 2011 against the Dow, but since that high, the Dow has been gaining ground over gold until the ratio peaked in 2018. While the Dow rallied to make a new record high into the Jan/Feb 2020 time period, it was again underperforming gold and it was declining from its 2018 high which curiously aligned with the Russel 2000 high in 2018.

With all the political chaos around the world and this clear coordinated trend using this virus to further the real goal of Climate Change, the deliberate scheme to crush the economy to prepare for Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset being pushed by the World Economic Forum, there is clearly some unsettling trends unfolding around the world.

Gold has NOT broken out yet in all currencies. In Japanese yen, it has still not made a new record high above 2013 as has been the case in Dollars and even Euro. This implies that the trend for gold is still in an upward bias which may last into the first quarter of 2021.

The DAX in Germany looks more like the Dow whereby it too has not made a new high beyond the 1st quarter. However, when we plot the Dax in terms of US dollars, we get a drastically different pattern all impacted by the currency. Indeed, despite all the evidence and high ranking officials in Germany Merkel is intending to lockdown Germany AGAIN! (see Merkel 2nd lockdown) German ministers warn that lockdowns kill more people than they save, yet Merkel ignores them, as well as Pfizer.

The computer has projected the rise in Civil Unrest and this will only increase post-US election moving into 2022 and then into 2024. As much as it is getting tiring with all this political back and forth, by far, we are not even limited to the United States. We have major elections in 2021 and 2022 around the world. With politics becoming so polarized, we MUST keep an eye on the big picture. As I have said, previous presidential elections in the USA were no big deal. If your candidate lost, you simply moved on and it really had little impact because the DEEP STATE was really in control and the agenda rarely changed other than perhaps taxes. This time it is very different. Capital is being driven around the world not out of investment opportunity, but out of political fear.

The likelihood of life returning to normal is very slim. This agenda is all about Climate Change and my RELIABLE inside sources in London are talking about lockdowns that may be necessary to save the planet. This seems to be more of a trial run to crush the world economy as we have known it. I always enjoyed going to New York City during the Christmas season to see the tree and the cheer. That will not happen in 2020 and it may not happen in 2021 either. There is clearly a UN agenda lurking behind this trend.

We have China & Russia seeking to break away from the Western monetary system and are preparing to reject the SWIFT system altogether. The more hostile the West becomes toward both, the greater the probability that as we head into 2032, the world economy will not just split, it will fragment as well.

With Trudeau suspending Parliament in Canada which was investigating corruption involving him and his family, there is certainly something very strange to see all of these politicians so willing to lockdown their people and undermine their economies creating debts that can never be repaid.

This makes it IMPERATIVE to rely on our computer system which is monitoring the entire world for we will need to track the capital flows to understand the future direction of all markets, we will need to comprehend both the political shifts as well as the debt markets combined with currencies. We have our work cut out for us. If we do not monitor the entire world, there is no way to avoid the crazy trends driven by foreign events.

Stop your vote being stolen: Vote in person not by mail


Voting in person will prevent your vote being possibly stolen by a mail ballot falsely cast in your name and ensure the integrity and reliability of the election results

Stop your vote being stolen: Vote in person not by mail

As America continues to sink into an abyss of chaos, arson and looting—the last thing it needs are further protests across America or legal actions by teams representing either Republicans or Democrats challenging the election results on November 3, 2020.

The best way to stop these disasters happening is by voting in person—not by mail.

It is therefore disturbing to see the Washington Post giving the following advice to its readers in a panel headed ”Election 2020: What to know”

”Find out the rules in your state. Some states have already started sending out mail ballots; see how to make sure yours counts. Absentee and mail ballots are two terms for the same thing, mostly used interchangeably. Barring a landslide, we may not have a result in the presidential election on Nov. 3.”

This panel is prominently positioned below a Washington Post article dated August 17th headlined: “State officials rush to shore up confidence in Nov. 3 election as voters express new fears about mail voting”.

The article itself contains the following statements:

  • “Absentee voting has become so common that in 34 states and the District, any voter can ask for an absentee ballot, even if the voter is physically able to vote in person on Election Day, a practice called “no-excuse absentee voting.”
  • As the use of absentee voting evolved, election officials began referring to the practice with other terms, such as “advanced ballots,” “mailed ballots,” “vote-by-mail ballots” and “mail ballots,” according to the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL).
  • Some states prefer to call it “mail-in voting” rather than “absentee voting,” because voters will be mailed a ballot regardless of whether they are in town or “absent” from their polling precinct on Election Day.
  • Why are there so many terms? It’s a result of a decentralized election administration system in the United States, in which each state sets its own rules on how to conduct elections, experts say. And each state’s rules and regulations around absentee voting vary.
The advice is grossly misleading and is popping up all over the internet:

 “Absentee voting”: Requiring the voter to expressly request ballot papers be posted to him—is very different from “mail–in voting” : The unsolicited mail out of ballot papers addressed to individual voters where they may no longer live or maybe deceased—easily capable of being harvested and illegally completed.

Voter fraud can also occur in the case of absentee voting.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton’s Testimony before the United States House of Representatives Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties on June 3,  2020 gave these examples:

“In 2019, an Oakland County clerk outside Detroit, Michigan was charged with illegally altering 193 absentee ballots. A Minneapolis, Minnesota man was charged with helping 13 others falsify absentee ballots ahead of the 2018 election. In 2017, a Dallas County, Texas man was convicted after 700 mail-in ballots were witnessed and signed by a fictitious person. And recently in North Carolina’s 9th Congressional District race, a scheme was run to steal 1,200 absentee ballots and fill them out, in a race that was decided by only 900 votes.”

Only 61.4 percent of the voting-age population voted in 2016—similar to 2012.

A 2019 Gallup poll found only 4 in 10 Americans expressed confidence in the honesty of elections in the country—while 6 did not.

Voting in person will prevent your vote being possibly stolen by a mail ballot falsely cast in your name and ensure the integrity and reliability of the election results.

The Masks – A Symbol of the Real Agenda


Armstrong Economics Blog/Climate

Re-Posted Sep 27, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

I have spent decades in Asia, and people who were sick wore masks as a matter of courtesy. Masks were not worn by people to prevent getting sick because they do not work that way. When I went to the ER and they threw me into a COVID wing, I told them I did not know anyone with COVID. They said I could have gotten it by touching the nozzle to fill my car with gas. That statement right then and there proves masks do nothing.

Most people will be touching their faces or adjusting their mask, and if they touched something with COVID, then the mask will become infected. This is one giant scam to push Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset from the World Economic Forum.

The use of masks and social distancing has destroyed the world economy and created over 300 million unemployed people. They have actually hurt the minorities and lower classes whose labor was dependent upon their presence. Not everyone can work from home. The whole agenda is about stopping people from commuting to eliminate fossil fuels. Only 8% of those in New York have returned to offices. The lockdowns increased the supply of oil by another three years. There were over 400 wells in production in Texas, which have declined to just over 100. They have erected this clock in New York City to tell us we have now just 7 years left.

What I find extremely disturbing is that Al Gore claimed back in 2009 certain models projected total ice-free during the summer months at the North Pole, which he put in this forecast from 2014 to 2016.

I have provided the real explanation of How & Why Ice Ages Are Created and the fact that the North Sea Passage has been passable to ships on a cyclical basis over the centuries.

There is no coming back from this deliberate economic destruction. They are deliberately trying to CRUSH the world economy to further their goal to control climate change. Unfortunately, everything that our computer has forecast has been absolutely correct from Trump and BREXIT winning back in 2016, the rise of civil unrest, the corruption for the 2020 election, the rise in food prices due to shortages, and the ultimate end-game will be the destruction of Western society post-2032 and the shift of the financial capital of the world to China.

COVID-19 Tearing Families Apart


Armstrong Economics Blog/Education

Re-Posted Sep 25, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: Mart, this is tearing my family apart. I can no longer even speak to my son. He is against Trump simply because he does not like him personally or his tweets. I try to explain this should not turn on those issues. This is a war for your future. My son will not listen and he will vote against himself and is too brainwashed to see the bigger picture.

GA

ANSWER: I know of many people in the same boat. Even two of my business partners had ended all communication with their children. My partner, who died about 20 years ago, insisted I make sure everything went to his second wife and nothing to his children in the event of his death. These things are sad, but the brainwashing that has been taking place is thicker than even blood. It is very sad. But this is precisely what was carried out in East Germany. They deliberately tried to turn the children against their parents. That was a strategic tool of the left. This entire COVID-19 scheme is dividing the country. One father wrote in and said his son said all he cared about was taxes. They have no idea what their vote will mean in this election.

This is an agenda that is well organized, and it is a major effort as was the Communist Revolution of 1848 and then 1917/1918. People know about the Wiemar Republic and the hyperinflation of the 20s, but it was a revolution in Germany in 1918 that overthrew the government, even boldly asked Russia to come to absorb Germany so they could enjoy the Communist Utopia, that led to the chaos. People hoarded all wealth and converted to foreign currencies.

The idealistic fools who were brainwashed were left penniless. This is the fate of your son, sad to say. Those with any wealth, the older people, understood what was at stake. They prepared. The youth, believing in Utopia, suffered from hyperinflation. When the new currency was finally created in 1925, it was backed by real estate — not gold which had vanished thanks to hoarding.

Unfortunately, the youth are blind. Biden is a puppet. He will surrender the sovereignty to the United Nations and this is why they are fighting so hard. Michael Bloomberg is very evil. He is trying to pay all the fines, $20 million, of felons in Florida with the implication they will vote for Biden. I really do not want to live in a world where Bloomberg has any power whatsoever. The nice things will be to see Gates, Zuckerberg, and Bloomberg, among a long list of others supporting this new tyranny, will then become the targets are stripped of their wealth as the final phase takes place — nationalization of companies.

There is nothing you can do. They have been brainwashed. It is hard to bear. But we simply must understand that they are creating this new world and they will ONLY learn from experience. We cannot shelter them. To walk, they have to fall many times. This can be irreversible. Unless they see the error of their ways soon, then the split becomes permanent. The more you try to show them, the more they will not listen. That’s why it is so important to pay attention to what they are being told in school.
