Jumping Jack Flash Hypothesis: It's A Gas Gas Gas: Event Update For 2018-03-12

Event Update For 2018-03-12

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

The News Breaks With The End Of The Cycle
http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/03/the-news-breaks-with-end-of-cycle.html

How To Manage (Other People's) Money In DunceTopia:

"There are times when an investor has no choice but to behave as though he believes in things that don't necessarily exist... that means being willing to be long risk assets in the full knowledge of two things: that those assets may have no qualitative support; and second, that this is all going to end painfully"

The central tenet of Elliott Wave Theory is that social mood is the final arbiter of risk assets. While I agree to some extent, I don't fully subscribe to this thesis - for several reasons, chief among them the fact that Prechter has yet to prove definitively that economic reality does not exist. And I'm not holding my breath for that revelation. For example: euphoric social mood can exhort an individual to buy a new Ford F150 with all of the trimmings, at the end of the cycle, but it can't help him pay for it when interest rates rise [chart]

What even Prechter and his acolytes don't understand is that deflation is poverty. And until we resolve poverty there won't be economic reflation in a world that is continually investing excess capital into excess capacity. [more]

Drove down to Miami from Toronto to see the boat show a couple weeks ago. I noticed a slight smell of farts in the air starting in Tennessee that didn't let up until Tampa Bay. Got a bit scared a couple times on the causeway in Miami as the smell was quite a bit stronger at times but then disappeared completely...maybe because the gas destroyed my ability to smell it. It was raining fairly hard and steady from Michigan all the way to the Florida border. Harbour water was light milky green at Bayside. I swam in the ocean and didn't die :) Lots of people getting stung by Jelly fish. On the way back the worst stench was in Detroit/Windsor...but it always stinks there! Johnny...unfortunately it seems you're right about everything. Things are getting weird fast, especially for those who haven't discovered your work. Take care, I appreciate all the updates and news from you and all the people who comment here. Cheers!
