Nobody gives a damn about America's sanctions. The whole world is tired of America's bullshit and have decided NOT to be SHEEP anymore and REBEL en masse. What can America do...go to war with the whole world at once?

The era of the petrodollar is OVER! America is DYING! America is DRY, DEAD, PARCHED, DONE FOR.

The absolutely BEAUTIFUL thing about all this is you know it's true.

2018 - 2020, MMRI collapsed...preparing us for the pandemic lockdowns and trillions of dollars to be printed.

MMRI rising at a fast pace, setting the debt market up for the next massive event that will cause the MMRI to collapse at an even faster pace down the road...when the MMRI starts collapsing again, this will be the sign that something big is about to happen.

Is the MMRI high enough? I don't believe that Central Banks think it is high enough. We will be so far ahead of the game when it does fall fast. Prepare yourself.

Greg, so glad to see you are still producing solid content, man. After pounding the table from 2003-2018, I threw in the towel. I recently turned 63, so I'm a bit older than you. I've been retired and 100% debt free for more than 16 years.

I got off the treadmill to nowhere and out of the debt trap at 47. I cannot begin to express the level of freedom that being financially independent brings.

I wanted to reach out to see if you might need an editor/writer for any of your past or future publications. Here is a link to one of the last articles I wrote back in 2016.

http://www.elliottwavetechnology.com/2016/07/political-climate-in-america-storm.html

I suspect you will agree in reviewing my writings that we are on the same page and speak the same language.

Keep fighting the fight, brother. Hats off to you and your audience.

Home Builders Sentiment Falls For 10 months. Anytime, the cheap money stops Home Builders

Sentiment will go down and so to will new and used home sales. As I reiterated before, Fed Interest

Rate Hikes usually start biting or taking hold anywhere from 3-5 months out. So, effectively that

bite will begin in February or March, 2023 and so will consumers behavior patterns in terms of

how high a price they are willing to buy a house at, when and the "terms" of the cost of carrying

debt being "higher". Obviously that has a dampening effect on housing and real estate and so

you have to ask yourselves, where was the most disproportionate price increases in the last severl

years? Exactly, housing and the real estate markets. Once you have a dampening of this way to

high pricing through higher interest rates, folks will buy less per the restraints of the carry cost of

debt. This effectively is the the market curing itself and creating a balancing basis. So, when you

had zero or 2% interest rates, you know the no risk lending, you had people buying up anything

and everything to then flip in 6-18 month intervals for even more and continuously going higher

and higher in this chain of cheap money entering these markets. Without the cheap money, you'll

see less buying so reduction of sales prices over time and return to a more normal market place

in terms of sales prices properties sold will be as well as purchase numbers of sales of new homes

and existing homes. In all this, you also will have sellers "not" able to secure their higher asking prices

which then in turn either forces them to sell at lower sales prices and/or taking the property in question off the market which reduces "inventory" on and in the "market". So, this will definitely

reduce the cost of housing over time as well as the ability to "profiteer off flipping homes" buying

any home no matter what condition and then repairing and flipping for highest profit. That process

will also be effectively slowed which is "good" for new home buyers trying to actually by a "fixer upper" at lower cost or price and then fixing up over time to the way the new buyers want it but

"over time" like everyone else has had to do previously in the housing markets. If the "flippers" buy

all the fixer uppers to the point where new home buyers have to go into a bidding war for the

beaten up house, that is what effectively snuffs out the actual intrinsic fixer upper new home buyer.

So, it's a good thing. Will there be issues along the way? Of course, like every other time we had

things spike in the real estate and housing areas but "certainly not" like we have currently. Now,

if the the Home Builders Sentiment has fallen that means that effectively they may not build as many

houses so construction material costs should start plummeting as well which is also good for the

new home buyers, who may need to buy construction materials to refurbish the home they get at

a lower cost in the less flipper housing market with higher interest rates. Savers of cash also will

be positively effected as they will also be able to place larger down payments on the homes they

wish to buy and therefore secure lower interest rates on any loan and better terms of the loan

to the homebuyer. This is all positive flow and natural return to "normal new home building and

existing home sales" for the "home buyers" and over time. To give you an illustration of interest

rates, one of my family worked at a bank in late 1950's and the interest rate "then" was 5.25%!

Think about that, that long ago and now people are bemoaning interest rates of 6.00-7.00% for

home loans???!!! In the meantime, actual home builders will have to rethink their construction

plans making homes "more affordable" in construction terms with less fancy finishes so lower

home price, so more able to be made "fancier" over time by the new home buyer but with a lower

purchase price up front. Newly married instead of buying a normal home may have to buy a 2/1

or 2/2 first then eventually sell and go to a 3/2 or 4/2 as their family grows. Who ever had a first

purchase house they stayed in for ever anyways realistically? Nobody that's who.

As far as the debt market is concerned, that to will be adjusted according to changes in market

conditions. If folks are in debt/bonds etc at lower interest, why would they stay in those bonds

but more so move to newer bond offerings at higher interest? When that happens, you end up

with volatility in the bond market, "but" even that has a valley and a peak just like a fever when

you have the flu. Eventually, the fever breaks and your body's systems return to normal temperature

and normal functioning. So, central banks buying debt, duggh, why would they not under these

conditions I just explained above. If central banks didn't absorb some of this debt, your debt

market would collapse which is exactly the opposite any sane person would want to happen under

any circumstances as that would result in more down than up which would effect more people

from all income levels. So, this will also play out and then the bond markets will return to a

cyclical norm as outlined above.

So, you raise interest rates to get rid of bad investments and bad investors as they have shorter

fingers and arms with the carrying cost of loans to buy those positions in any one of the markets.

This eliminates the underlying bad investors and bad investments so the markets can regenerate

and then move to higher positions "over time" not in one month or one year. Longer cyclical

economic growth at a lower and more realistic level is bringing "normalcy to the markets" rather

than boom and bust economies. This we have avoid at all costs if we want a healthier and more

stable economic infrastructure over time.

Hi Greg. When the MMRI gets above 300 and into High Risk, does that signify the bond rates will skyrocket and thus bonds/stocks will collapse or that the Fed will dump trillions into the debt market to further prop up equities?

This answer will really help my understanding the indicator for future reference.

Thanks.
