Very Big Correction for All Markets Coming [Video]

MacleodGreg Hunter – Financial expert Alasdair Macleod says the most important economic news concerns the U.S. dollar. Macleod explains, “I think the most important point is actually the dollar has turned.  The panic move into the dollar by miners and producers of raw material . . . was driving the dollar up. That has now ceased.  China has now started buying those raw materials, base metals, oil and so on and so forth.  So, the result is the commodity crisis is over.  That, actually, is the biggest driver of the dollar, which is pushing it down.”

On the U.S. economy having a huge recession, Macleod contends, “Actually, the underlying business conditions are not good. What we have seen for considerable time is U.S. corporations have increased their borrowing, to invest in production—no, to buy back shares to artificially inflate their earnings.  There comes a point that if you don’t have the underlying cash flow, you can’t do that anymore.  I think there is a concern in the markets we are getting near to that point.”

Macleod predicts when the market turns, it will crash big-time. Macleod contends, “Whenever markets get mispriced, the correction is always very sudden, unexpected and hurts a lot of people.  Now, we don’t have it in just one market, we have it in all markets.  So, I would expect on that basis alone, that when the thing starts sliding, it’s going to be very, very big and actually could be systemically big.”

A Clarion Alarm Call For All Paper Assets

Michael Noonan – Perhaps the most successful Ponzi scheme of all has been the Rothschild-led takeover and sapping of the entire United States since the American Civil War that started in 1861.  The final stages were set with the not-so-lawfully-passed but fully implemented Federal Reserve Act on 23 December 1913.  The fact that it purportedly passed two days before Christmas, when the custom was for no legislation to be enacted, while most politicians were en route or already home for the holidays, and the main opponents for this specific Act were indeed absent when the vote was made before a select skeleton group that stayed in Washington to ensure “passage” of the Act, this was all a huge red flag that was kept hidden from the public.

The Federal Reserve Act gave the Rothschild bankers the control of all money issued in the United States, giving renewed life to Amshel Rothschild’s famously portentous words:

Give me control of a nation’s money supply,
and I care not who makes it’s laws.”

 The trap was set.

In 1933, with FDR’s declared banking holiday, it was game, set, match.   The purpose of the bank holiday was to shut down the entire US bank system and have it reopen fully under control of the Federal Reserve System, itself controlled by foreign bankers and not at all a part of the United States government.  Another hidden fact kept from the public.

Precious Metals Amid A World Of Lies And Deception

Michael Noonan – Political and financial turmoil reign around the world, by design.  It is the classic example of the elites at work working their never-fail formula of Problem-Reaction-Solution.  They create havoc of some kind, any kind, wherever they choose, the Problem.  It is usually political upheaval fomenting unrest, and the broader the unrest the better.  It often takes the form of financial turmoil, disrupting a country’s GDP, currency, whatever, as long as there is disruption.  It can be war, a function no other country creates more of than the US. It can be massive immigrant migration, currently underway.  Why does the name Soros come to mind?

Form does not matter, function does, and as long as there are distracting and decidedly real Problems going on, much of the world is unhappy, and the elites are smiling, pleased. During all that goes on no matter where, no matter how dire, the Reaction[s] are being carefully monitored, the worse and more widespread they are, the better.  Make the public clamor for a change for the better, relatively speaking, but it never gets better.

“Make the terrorism stop!”  “Solve the immigrant problem!”  “Get the country out of its financial morass!”  In other words, stop the [designed] hurt, make it go away.  The despair is like music to the elite’s ears, for they have an intended and carefully pre-planned Solution.  It always involves giving up personal freedom and security, ceding control to the controlled-by-the-elites government[s].

This 4,000-year old financial indicator says that a major crisis is looming

silver Simon Black – Over 4,000 years ago during Sargon the Great’s reign of the Akkadian Empire, it took 8 units of silver to buy one unit of gold.

This was a time long before coins. It would be thousands of years before the Lydians in modern day Turkey would invent gold coins as a form of money.

Back in the Akkadian Empire, gold and silver were still used as a medium of exchange.

But the prices of goods and services were based on the weight of metal, and typically denominated in a unit called a ‘shekel’, about 8.33 grams.

For example, you could have bought 100 quarts of grain in ancient Mesopotamia for about 2 shekels of silver, a weight close to half an ounce in our modern units.

Both gold and silver were used in trade. And at the time the ‘exchange rate’ between the two metals was fixed at 8:1.

Throughout ancient times, the gold/silver ratio kept pretty close to that figure.

During the time of Hamurabbi in ancient Babylon, the ratio was roughly 6:1.

In ancient Egypt, it varied wildly, from 13:1 all the way to 2:1.
