I am not a sports fan. I do not even have time for TV. However, I am a student of cyclical patterns. When it came to the Triple Crown, I looked at the cyclical pattern and said it was time and he will win. Well, I did it again. Villanova won the championship in 1985. […]
Fridays NFP in the US did not help support the Nikkei despite the DOW’s strong closing rally. We did see a bounce off of the 16k figure but given that the Chinese markets were closed, holding any gains on the day proved just too lonesome. Late news on Friday about oil production continues to haunt […]
Trump’s latest comments over the weekend regarding the economy are interesting but still fall short of reality. He argues the unemployment number is really in the 20%+ zone, and the number that was provided was deliberately contrived to make politicians look good. That is basically true, but his number is a bit high. He says the […]
Part of the crisis in the EU is the fact that there is an inherent anti-democratic foundation because Brussels has been attempting to force uniformity upon all of Europe which cannot possibly work. To the shock of some, I have stated many times that what made America function was DISCRIMINATION. Every group coming to America — German, Italian, […]

QUESTION: Dear Marty, We are heading straight into the hurricane, and as you correctly say, there is no way of reversing the trend. At this point, should Hillary (or Cruz for that matter) win the elections, she would have to face and preside over the coming inevitable crash and burn. This would be the only […]
“The Associated Press Stylebook” lists all the “politically correct” terms you should use. The term “Islamist” is now defined as “An advocate or supporter of a political movement that favors reordering government and society in accordance with laws prescribed by Islam.” They go on to explain you should not use the term Islamic “fighters, militants, […]
The number of Americans resigning their citizenship has reached record highs. Americans were thrown out of everywhere after FATCA was enacted. Due to FATCA, foreign institutions must report anything an American is doing outside the country or that institution’s assets will be confiscated. I myself find it impossible to do business internationally as I used to, for […]
As expected, the Republican Party will not follow the candidate who the people select in the primaries. Rule 40(b), which requires a presidential candidate to win eight states to qualify for the nomination, has been scrapped for the upcoming convention in Cleveland. Rule 40(b) was a special rule to prevent Ron Paul’s name from being […]
