James Davidson on Jan 22 2010 | Filed under: Economics, Reports
When Mount Vesuvius startled rumbling in AD 79, it was time to get out of Pompeii.
Sure, there were those who said it would all blow over. As it turned out, they were wrong. The volcano erupted and buried the whole city under lava and ash.

The Plague of the Black Debt
James Davidson on Dec 02 2009 | Filed under: Uncategorized
By James Dale Davidson
You don’t have to be a conservative, a liberal or anything at all to understand America as we know it is about to get flattened. The White House says the deficit will be $1.5 trillion—in 2010 alone. All up, the national debt is now racing past an astonishing $12 trillion.
In fact, if President Obama’s own economic projections are on target, he’s going to add $10 trillion on to the federal debt in the next 10 years.
That’s more than four times the deficits of George W. Bush’s presidency… and more than all of the other presidents – combined.
Whether you agree with them or not, or who you blame for them, one thing is clear, America is facing a fiscal train wreck—andit’s heading stragiht towards you. These are the largest deficits as a percentage of GDP since 1945, when the country was paying for World War II.
Bond Traders Veto Presidents
James Davidson on Dec 02 2009 | Filed under: Bonds, Economics
Bond traders aren’t elected, and they answer to nobody. But they possess knowledge about market prices around the world.
They move trillions of dollars a day. And that makes them very powerful.
When bond traders see that Obama and the Federal Reserve are really serious about bringing about inflation, they will dump hundreds of billions of dollars in US bonds.
Turning Chaos into Cash

Lord Rees-Mogg and I called our first book Blood in the Streets. Its subtitle was “Investment Profits in a World Gone Mad.” A lot of people thought we were overdoing it just a bit.
But consider the forecasts we made that came true:
- The Crash of 1987.
- The crash in Tokyo stocks and real estate, with losses in the trillions. (Our readers tripled their money on the fall in Japanese stocks… with a low-risk investment you could buy from any U.S. broker.)
- The end of the Soviet Union and the Cold War
- The fall of the Berlin Wall and German reunification
Economic Collapse on Cue

At Strategic Investment, our secret is the theory of “megapolitics.”
Megapolitics is a concept I developed with Lord Rees-Mogg in Blood in the Streets and The Great Reckoning: Protecting Yourself in the Coming Depression.
You don’t have to read the books to understand the main idea: The world is shaped by big, powerful forces or trends that nobody can control.

The chill is on: Unseasonably cold air will envelop much of the eastern half of the nation both Saturday and Sunday, with temperatures averaging anywhere from 10 to 30 degrees below normal. High temperatures will reach only the 40s and 50s across the upper Midwest, Great Lakes, Northeast, and Mid-Atlantic states each day.

“Congress has been badly misinformed about the so-called science that supports the claim that increasing CO2 levels will bring about catastrophic climate change…The idea that Congress can stop climate change would be just hilarious if the actions they propose were not so damaging to the American people and even more [damaging] to the poorer people of the world,”
