http://ponziworld.blogspot.c...Trumptopia Is A Hoax <br />http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2019/01/trumptopia-is-hoax.html<br /><br />Somehow we've been trapped in a circus run by the dumbest and most arrogant frauds in human history. Trumptopia is a delusional conspiracy propagated by paranoid denialists. On themselves. Sadly, you can't warn them, because they don't trust anyone who can be trusted...<br /><br />What we are witnessing in real-time is a corporate Idiocracy self-destructing in every direction - physically, mentally, financially, and of course ecologically. Aided and abetted by human history's largest cabal of soulless corporate Mad Men. Whose only concern is next quarter's profit. Having spent their entire lives in a corporate controlled Disneyland, they are wholly incapable of separating fact from fiction.<br /><br />No part of this planet has been untouched by American "exceptionalism". From the decimated Middle East to the squalor in Central America, now generating mass migration North to seek asylum, no part of this planet is untouched by this failed way of life.<br /><br />The consumption oriented dead end way of life has failed humanity and this planet on a scale that only the creator can comprehend.

But the number of butterflies turning up at overwintering sites this year — including those in Ventura County — has plummeted by around 86 percent compared to only a year ago, according to the Xerces Society, which organizes a yearly count of the iconic creatures around Thanksgiving.

For nearly two decades, Apple has been an unbeatable economic miracle, but now it appears that times have changed. Global sales for the iPhone were disastrous during the holiday quarter, and this is yet another indication that the global economic slowdown is accelerating. Here in the United States, auto sales have been abysmal, retail bankruptcies have been surging and home sales have been seriously declining, but the big tech giants were supposed to be an economic bright spot that we could always rely on. Perhaps that is why so many investors were shocked when Apple announced their most recent quarterly results on Tuesday… [more]<br /><br />Donny Or Dog Food: The Last Hurrah<br />http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2019/01/the-last-hurrah.html<br /><br />Wall Street's favourite game is to lower profit estimates ahead of each quarter so that it appears that stocks magically "beat" Wall Street expectations. It's a game of alchemy and deception that apparently never ceases to fool serial dunces. Unfortunately, this time around it has inadvertently concealed the end-of-the-cycle. Overnight, more earning warnings from Whirlpool, 3M, and Lockheed Martin. All ignored by gamblers. <br /><br />This is a week of critical events: key earnings reports, the Fed tomorrow, and fake trade talks later this week. Recall that last year January was strong, but the beginning of February marked VolPlosion. Specifically, Friday Feb. 2nd was weak and Monday, February 5th was the meltdown. Which means that this year is following an eerily similar trajectory [see chart]<br /><br />Exhibit A of lowered expectations, Apple is "soaring" after hours, having beat their sharply lower expectations set earlier this month.
