Independent thinking for complex markets and current events
by Michael Today, I get to talk about some really great news. We should all be absolutely thrilled that officials from the United States and Russia are finally sitting down and talking. The meeting in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday that is being endlessly derided by the mainstream media was actually an extremely positive development. I …

JD Vance just said what European leaders refuse to acknowledge—their mass immigration policies are a betrayal of their own citizens. No one voted to flood their countries with millions of unvetted migrants, but they did vote for Brexit, for sovereignty, for leaders who promised to protect their homes and their futures. Yet the globalist elite …
The Democratic Party has veered so far off course that even its own battle-hardened strategists are throwing up their hands in frustration. Carville spent decades building the party into a political powerhouse, only to watch it implode under the weight of its own delusions. The leadership is now driven by activists who are completely disconnected …

The gold-to-oil ratio just hit its highest level—something that would have sounded like pure fantasy just a few years ago. Mining companies are the ones raking it in right now, and they’re in the driver’s seat as gold prices climb. Gold has surged almost $1,000 an ounce over the last year, while production costs barely …

Every time the market gains a little credibility, something like this happens. A meme coin pumped by a celebrity, people piling in with no understanding, and then—boom—someone gets left holding the bag. How many times does this have to happen before people learn? This isn’t investing. It’s gambling with terrible odds, and the worst part …
This isn’t cautious investing; it’s full-blown euphoria. History warns us: markets don’t follow public sentiment; they anticipate it.

Private sector employment is in free fall. Nearly 2 million full-time jobs have vanished in a year, with hiring in construction and manufacturing at recession levels. The only gains? Government jobs. Productivity is tanking, and economic fundamentals are unraveling. The Fed might pretend this is a “soft landing,” but the data says otherwise. 🚨US PRIVATE …

Hardworking Americans are still paying taxes, while our money gets flushed down the drain. Tax cuts are stuck, and the political elites continue to enrich themselves and their friends at our expense. The system is broken, and it’s time we demand accountability. We didn’t sign up for this kind of betrayal. This is absolutely disgusting. …
A billion-dollar BTC impairment loss, a staggering 693% rise in expenses, and now an absurd share dilution? This is beyond reckless—it’s financial self-destruction disguised as innovation. Toxic bonds are lurking, ready to obliterate the stock once it starts falling. And when that happens, the big players who bought in will cash out, leaving retail investors …
