Melt up for now but sometime in 2025 the previous rate-hike cycle will finally break the market. Every rate-hike cycle has a lag effect that triggers a crash after the Fed already starts cutting rates.

The Fed started cutting in September 2007. We all know what happened the next year. This time they started cutting September 2024. Guess what will happen 2025.

Meltdown/Meltup Cycles - rate-hikes - business cycles - trickle down piss down our backs 'lag effects' - what a worn-out record... it's a long way to Tipparary Jackson. Word Art - Illusions/beliefs that a necessary evil is both evil and extremely necessary. This has been a prolonged three-decade demise since '87... hyperinflation is the best argument for a revolt - the best argument for anarchy. "Ours is a problem in which deception has become organized and strong; where truth is poison at its source; one in which the skill of the shrewdest brains is devoted to misleading a bewildered People." [Walter Lippman] 'Kick-the-can' - 'someday island' tonage of rhetoric seem to all defend the system. The same mindset that would believe fake elections - faked assassinations and other political campaign perfomances... that is what bewilders the People. cycling down the road into serfdom - wallowing in the chaotic churn of systemic distrust.

Time to END THE SO-CALLED FEDERAL RESERVE. Return to Constitutional Money. ENFORCE the US Constitution while dumping all banker-controlled politicians.

Melt up or down, our political issues, which brought on 100’s of trillions in staggering debt, are about to take center stage.

No Trump, Biden, or Harris in 2025 will deliver absolute control to the deep state tyrannical US leader coming in 30-60-90 days. “It” is going to take the fight, to our global political enemies, to a place never seen before in this modern age. War, technology, communication, high speed trading, unlimited digits being added to screens, etc. The feds trading desk, along with Wall Street Banks have been able to keep the house of cards built over a pool of gasoline standing, until now.

The world is not ending, but changing. BRICS, and the countries in the eastern hemisphere are planning to destroy America and “King Dollar”. Does anyone believe our deep State puppet masters are going to take that up the, (whatever Greg calls it, the gobble-de-ghoul)?

The answer is an absolute HELL NO! But can our coming tyrant retain the level and control of financial markets with the complexity of possible nuclear attacks in the US and around the world? “It” will go to war and put the nations of earth in fear. “It” will be more oppressive to the global population than what any of us have seen in our lifetime.

So… Risk off like never before. I guess that means, at least temporarily, a melt down. Unless DC, and NYC financial power broker elites can keep electronic trading systems up and manipulated to the highest order, the lack of real price discovery continues. But if attacks in the US take out our ability to electronically control markets, I think the real human phycology of the market will be devastated for a time. And that is when, those of us who have gold, silver, food, water, etc. will be able to help each other, (including the people who do not have gold and silver) to survive.

Gods got this. Brighter days are ahead, but we are headed into about seven years of very difficult times.
