John Polomny: Regulatory Capture Of The FED By Crooked Former FED Officials. They Get Rich, You Get Screwed

www.actionableintelligencealert.com

Just more crookery as people work at the FED where they ostensibly regulate the banks. We see all these so-called smart people work at the FED and manage our economy. After they blow serial bubbles and ruin average people's financial lives they move to private industry (banks) and get fat salaries and perks.

John Polomny: How Stupid Are Things Getting In The Everything Bubble? Pretty Freaking Stupid.

Businessweek says on its cover that sneakers are a "new asset class". Valuations for most assets are through the roof. People with no idea how markets work and no knowledge of valuing companies or understanding what they are buying are making money hand over fist. Is this normal or is it a result of too much money being created by central banks that is enabling rampant specualtion.

John Polomny: It Is The End Of The Oil Age As We Know It, And I Feel Fine

A bit of a riff on REM's song title "It Is The End Of The World As We Know It."

Lot's of talk in the media recently about the end of fossil fuels and energy transitions. How realistic is this? How long will it take? Wht are oil prices rising and will they continue?

John Polomny: Even The Smartest Man Ever Could Not Keep From Getting FOMO. Weekly Market Update 2-6-21

 

Sir Issac Newton, who many say was the smartest human ever, got caught up in the FOMO of the South Seas Bubble. He made some money at the start and got out. But seeing his friends get rich caused his FOMO to soar. He got in big at the top and lost most of his money. 

History repeats with the FOMO and greed that we have seen in this bubble market. 

I also discuss the 68% gain in Athabasca Oil Sands since I mentioned it in my past video from last week.

John Polomny: WSB Gamestop Play Is Just Another Manifestation Of Central Bank Corruption Of Our Money

 

 

Because of the central banks zero interest policy and over prinitng of currency to deal with the huge debt situation most people have been turned into speculators and now gamblers. In my view the recent Gamestop short hedge fund body slam, although amusing, is just more rank speculation and will end in tears for most players.

John Polomny: Get Ready For The "Crack Up Boom". AIA Weekly Market Update 1-23-21

With all the money being created and injected into the economy to fight covid I am expecting a reopening of the economy to lead to a Crack Up Boom. The increased money will outstrip the economies ability to prodcue goods and services which will lead to rising prices.

It will look and feel good at first but will have the potential to end in disaster.

John Polomny: Joe Biden's Banana Republic. Weekly Market Update 1-16-21

 

“Typically, a banana republic has a society of extremely stratified social classes, usually a large impoverished working class and a ruling class plutocracy, composed of the business, political, and military elites of that society.” Like all Banana Republics, the US economy and social structure is now on the way to perdition with virtually no chance for Biden & Co to reverse the inevitable course of events.
