Stock Market Assessment and Positions 5/8/25

Posted on by
Reply

I am basically a technician who has abandoned technical analysis for the time being. Buy signals still work and sell signals serve as buy signals as well, Any sell signal triggers a short squeeze. The charts below are of NBI, the biotech index. Notice the short squeeze, as soon as the long term  trendline had been broken. This happens in unmanipulated markets but in this market nearly 100% of the time. I don’t know of a way to short stocks in this market without getting squeegeed out. I go with inverse ETFs and hold the positions,  Notice the second  long-term  chart. You can see the consequences of significantly breaking that long-term pattern.

.

 

i don’t know the current percentages but trading is still perhaps 80% interlay. No one knows what volume really is because big positions are traded off of the major  exchanges. This must change in order for the market to fall off of a cliff.

As of now, the elite still have ample but waning ability to manipulative the markets. Planned markets always collapse .but knowing when is a skill I don’t have. I do know this, the stock market is an endgame for the elite. Without high asset prices they are out of business. Even though it looks like the end is near, God only knows what will be done to reignite stocks. So, I fall short of proclaiming that this is the time to load up on bearish positions, I am buying invers ETFs on every short squeeze and just holding them, a little at a time.

Below is a list of bear ETFs I am holding.

BIS
FAZ
FLYD
FNGD
HIBS
JETD
KOLD
LABD

OILD
SDS
SPXS
SSG

Tariffs

Posted on by

Tariffs are taxes on the overall population. The U.S. is broke. Consumer prices are skyrocketing. Individual citizens are the only entities which have any true income, or for that matter any genuine assets. In order to survive, the government must find ways to bleed what is left in resources out of the general population. The only other solution is to start closing Federal Agencies or cutting salaries of Federal employees.

Tariffs can be described as a benefit, and guess what?  A huge portion of the population can be duped into believing that they are. I have this saying. Never trust a politician, billionaire or broadcaster, Tariffs work against you, despite what these types say.

How is this possible in a democracy? As I say, democracy is the wrong system for a people who trust leadership. Americans hang on every word coming out of the mouths of the powerful. It is as simple as that. Add to that a number of misguided myths that purvey the national consciousness, as follows. here are a few.

Intellectuals routinely assume that what works on paper will work in practice, as if foreign vendors will not change their marketing practices in response to  U.S. Tariffs. They will respond with their own protectionist policies with regard to the United States. It will make more sense to them to lower their prices  elsewhere than it will to pay U.S. taxes.

The president has the role of guiding the economy. This is not the case, nor is it the case that the economy must be guided, at all, from the top down.

There is actually no such thing as the U.S. economy. The economy, as it effects you, is a worldwide phenomenon, regardless of how it is presented. People are easily manipulated as they treat it as a my team vs the other team, situation, as if they have anything to gain by a stellar GDP relative to China, for example. There is no go team go in economics. Its every man for himself, independently of the way you would like it to be.

Government does not provide safety.  More people have died due to government’s efforts to keep us all safe programs than not. Our intelligence agencies may very well be the leading cause of death in the country,

Experts do not know what is best. For the most part experts milk society. Without government funding for their efforts, most would go broke.

This is the essence of tariffs in the light of reality. Eventually reality imposes itself on all of us. Why not deal with it in advance?.

With tariffs, just add more economic misery to what you are already experiencing.

Ways to Close the Wealth Inequality Gap

Posted on by
Reply

Ronald Reagan set the precedent first by embracing the Full Employment act of 1978 – which changed the economy from free market…. to planned. Since that time, the rich have done the planning. All administrations since have followed Reagan’s lead. It has been nothing but deficit spending and money printing ever since. The rise of the government -made billionaires followed.

Ronald Reagan was the first president to tamper with the financial markets following the crash of 1987.

Ronald Reagan’s programs have been followed by the creation of the huge wealth gap we have today. It was about normal when he took office. Even today, after all of the damage done, Reagan is still held out as the perfect icon of a conservative

Wealth Redistributing in the USA

Given the current mentality of U.S. citizens, it can’t be done. As long as voters trust their leaders, folks will just have to wallow in their misery. Democracy only benefits a population which does not trust its government. If this was not the case, there would be no point in having a democracy or a republic.

As long as citizens trust their leaders , a few will use government as a means of drawing wealth in their direction. So, with wealth disparities and a population that views government as their friend, there will be more disparities to come.

Any unnatural means of redistributing income like with government programs, will bring billionaires to their knees, but everyone else will become poorer also given the current mentality of U.S. citizens, it can’t be done.

Why Official Anti-Inflation Programs Fail

Posted on by

This is because government serves as a place where smart people go to wrench what they want out of others, who believe it is being used for its intended purpose.

No entity that is heavily in debt like government is going to fight inflation. Official anti – inflation efforts are all talk. Without inflation, the U.S. will go the equivalent of bankrupt. Inflation is a way to tax you because lawmakers will never suggest taking more out of your paycheck.

 

Lower interest rates and inflation increases. Raise interest rates and the government can’t service the  enormous debt it has accumulated.

This problem cannot be solved. We get problems like this because U.S. Citizens trust their government. The founding fathers didn’t trust government. They probably never fathomed that their posterity would. Americans are about to find out why they didn’t.

How and When to Short The Market  PDF Version

This is not advice, This is my personal approach. I don’t give advice on trading. I have managed investments for others in the past, Doing so diminishes my judgement.

There are no good investments in the economy today. GDP is elevated just because the stock market has  been goosed since 2006, Everything is overpriced, even gold. This is what happens when government is used as a tool for building wealth for those who control it. Tariffs will guarantee an outright depression. Free market attributes are necessary for launching a recovery,

The Imaginary Incentive to Serve

Posted on by

The world we live in is governed by the laws of dominance and subservience. There is no way to escape the system until our tenure here is complete.

Most people are unwilling to entertain the idea that most of what we do in aggregations of people is instinctive and that we have inborn propensities that are always present. `

Two of the instincts are to exalt our species and exalt ourselves as we interact with others in in the various aggregations we belong to. Because we are so important and special to ourselves, it is normal to expect that others view us in a similar light.

Trump Musk DOGE  PDF Version

Nature does not provide human beings who work tirelessly and selflessly for the benefit of mankind, certainly not billionaires and politicians. We live in a world where folks are enthralled with billionaires and trust them to guide the rest of us in the right direction. Surely, they love ordinary people just as much as ordinary people love them, right? Soon we will have a new parasitic federal agency milking money out of society along with the rest of them. Here is what to expect. In the beginning, there will be a lot to be impressed with. What happens next?

It will be out with the old crime syndicate as a new crime syndicate is being initiated. Musk and Trump will be the heads of the new one. Folks will love the new one and never snap to what is actually occurring.
