A look into the skyrocketing margin debt and market valuations
John Rubino, Founder of the Dollar Collapse website joins me to outline why he thinks margin debt has pushed stocks to levels they can not hold. We tie in the discussion with the recent fall in yields and the US Dollar.
But all markets are now manipulated. There are no supply-demand correlated markets at present time.
Suppose the Federal Reserve ACTUALLY BELIEVES in MMT, and is prepared to print money indefinitely.
That means the stock market will rise until it can’t anymore.
The GREAT thing is that the U.S. is not worse than many other countries.
So we just have to watch those worst countries, for they will fail BEFORE THE U.S..
They will act as a warning system for when to get out of the U.S. stock market.
Of course, I mis-wrote…..
There are supply-demand markets.
But there are not supply-demand markets that obey historical rules.
I agree CFS. They’re going to keep printing until something gives and it will. However, we’re still going to have corrections and they could be deep and then this thing will take off again.
A short-term top maybe who knows. We’ll see what happens. It’s all manipulated like you said CFS and there’s no price discovery. These are not free markets at all and it’s all fake. M E T that’s exactly right, that’s what they’re basing everything off of now. Suicidal economics
Oh ya !!!! A Megatron bubble and when it pops look Out below.
Supply-demand is one word in economics and there’s nothing new under the sun. Central planners have conjured bad money out of thin air for a long, long time and it has always resulted in less demand for the currency and greater demand for everything else relative to the currency. That’s the price picture. If you want an accurate value picture, you should price things in gold. It’s that simple. Why do you think the con artists who run things hate gold? For example, AMZN is up 600% nominally since its 2016 low but, priced in gold, it is up 400%. Which gain would you rather pay taxes on, the real gain net of inflation or the illusory one that effectively slaps a wealth tax on top of your already hefty capital gains tax?
John still speaks a good line. He’ll not lose his bet IMO. Not sure where Cory is at? But, what could possibly go wrong. Firstly, we’re Americans. Obviously the smartest tribe the world ever knew. We’re a nation of private property rights and law…….until you look beneath the surface. More billionaires that the rest of the stupid world put together. We’ve also got more zombie companies than anyone else. On top of that, at least 40% of us believe God is on our side. What could possibly go wrong. Listen to David Hunter on https://palisadesradio.ca/ for a possible pathway.
Off topic……

Ditto Irish…. thanks for the reminder….Hope OWL is Well…..
Hereโs where I feel like we are in precious metals compared to a story about a conifer tree:
A conifer seed (precious metals late 2015) that started in the rocky, inhospitable soil on the side of a mountain (unwanted and unloved) where it initially fell behind the others (long game thinker), growing slowly and hungry for nutrients. But now, six years later, the conifer will realize much greater growth and opportunism, thanks to its now strong foundation (gold silver to money supply), position of power (debt to GDP), and vantage point (percent of general public that have precious metals) compared to other investments. The time has come for the mighty conifer tree to make up for slow growth with now exponential growth.
Growingtrees, your analogy was interesting. I was reading your paragraph while listening on the radio to the bitch AOC.
It occured to me that conifers actually don’t mind air pollution and acid rain.
I believe I once read somewhere that the Douglas fir in particular lives quite happily in acid soils with a pH as low as 3.5
“conifers actually don’t mind air pollution and acid rain” … lol And the point I guess I was trying to make was conifers take a more roundabout wait (not seeking the best soil to grow in to limit competition). Precious Metals has been roundabout since 2015, but I believe the base / foundation has been grown and now we will see the UP!
Sorry, SilverDollar, but you really need to keep up to date.
The U.S. IS COLLAPSING
China has been gaining rapidly.

There are more billionaires in CHINA.
La La Land, today’s starting out with some good traction in the general equities market and looking for a blow off top at the end of the month. We need to see some really significant gains that would really be a fantastic opportunity to short this exuberance. I’m looking at the out of the money and even, in the money derivative put options they will be dirt cheap if this market could just explode to the upside till the end of the month. The fall of this market could be dramatic picking up multiples in excess are probably 2000% easy with good timing and all hands on deck. โ๐ฏ๐
