investmentwatchblog--2020-09-11--The Global Police State Is Swiftly Rising

There is always an excuse for the enforcement of totalitarian restrictions on the public .
There is always a reason .
And , often these reasons are engineered to sound logical and practical at the time .
In Germany after WWI and into the early 1930s Bolshevik activists and the German Communist Party ( KPD ) engaged in aggressive economic sabotage , street violence and even assassinations .
This along with the Great Depression led to German middle class support for the National Socialist Party and the Third Reich ( fascism ) .
Much of history ’ s focus is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but many people are unaware of the extreme threat of communist revolution in Europe during this era , a threat which was used by the Nazis as a perfect rationale for constructing a police state .
Arguably , without the existence of hardline communism , the fascists never would have had the public support needed to rise to power .
In Russia after the Bolshevik Revolution , the Cheka secret police were established in the name of preventing “ counter-revolution ” .
This is an interesting aspect common to communism in particular ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ THEY are the “ revolutionaries ” , even when they have all the power .
Thus , the revolution never ends because there are always people who disagree with communism .
Anyone who refuses to comply with Marxist mandates becomes an imperialist enemy and bogeyman , and is held up as an example of why the revolution must perpetually continue .
The police state must exist forever to root out the evil classists lurking in the shadows .
During the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak , a virus with a much higher death rate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s coronavirus , major US cities such as New Orleans instituted martial law measures and lockdowns on the economy ; closing schools , churches , public transportation , and places of leisure .
Of course , despite claims in the wake of Covid , these measures did little to nothing to stop the spread of the virus and the public became frustrated with their inability to function in the day-to-day economy ( sound familiar ) .
The population began to rebel against restrictions that were leading to financial decay , and there was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ ve noticed that the mainstream media has attempted in the past six months to rewrite the history of the Spanish Flu as if martial law measures were a success , even though ultimately the flu ran its natural course in the majority of US cities .

Martial law actions only served to drag out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could argue that a hundred years ago governments did not have the same tools at their disposal as they do now .
But are we really that much further ahead ?
Virologists have been working on an effective SARS vaccine for almost two decades with little success ; the idea that they could come up with a working vaccine for Covid in the span of a year ( as many governments are suggesting ) seems absurd .
History shows us that when vaccines are rushed into production by authorities , very bad things @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infection rates continue to climb in many nations , thereby justifying EVEN LONGER or more frequent lockdowns .
This creates an endless cycle of economic instability which the public can not endure , and many people are beginning to wonder what purpose of the pandemic restrictions serve ?

But , if you wanted to quickly implement a totalitarian system , then using a global @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ticket .
The problem for the establishment will be this : How can they keep the tyranny going once they have it ?

Look at how quick authorities have been to arrest people who refuse to follow lockdown restrictions , and take into account how aggressive arrests have been in other countries like Australia , Spain or the UK for doing nothing more than posting messages on Facebook or not wearing a mask on the street .
I think my point here is clear : The establishment supports social justice violence and unrest , and is cracking down hard on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hypocrisy is evident .
But this brings up some questions ; such as why they are so keen to allow the BLM riots to continue ?
As noted at the beginning of this article , I think the strategy is evident – It ’ s a two pronged attempt , a bait and switch : If the Marxists are successful and meet little resistance from the public then they will tear down the current system , and the elitists institutions that fund them like George Soros ’ s Open Society Foundation and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ build an Orwellian collectivist society from the ashes .
On the other hand , as in Germany in the 1930s , the civil unrest caused by hard left groups could also convince the general public that martial law measures are an acceptable solution and make them willing to sacrifice constitutional protections in order to rid themselves of the threat .

Anyone who refuses to comply with Marxist mandates becomes an imperialist enemy and bogeyman, and is held up as an example of why the revolution must perpetually continue. The police state must exist forever to root out the evil classists lurking in the shadows.
During the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak, a virus with a much higher death rate among younger Americans compared to today’s coronavirus, major US cities such as New Orleans instituted martial law measures and lockdowns on the economy; closing schools, churches, public transportation, and places of leisure. Of course, despite claims in the wake of Covid, these measures did little to nothing to stop the spread of the virus and the public became frustrated with their inability to function in the day-to-day economy (sound familiar). The population began to rebel against restrictions that were leading to financial decay, and there was little governments could do about it.
I’ve noticed that the mainstream media has attempted in the past six months to rewrite the history of the Spanish Flu as if martial law measures were a success, even though ultimately the flu ran its natural course in the majority of US cities. Infections and deaths continued unabated until the virus burned itself out and disappeared (no working vaccine was ever produced though there were many failed attempts based on the assumption that the disease was bacterial). Martial law actions only served to drag out the timeline of the virus.
One could argue that a hundred years ago governments did not have the same tools at their disposal as they do now. But are we really that much further ahead? Virologists have been working on an effective SARS vaccine for almost two decades with little success; the idea that they could come up with a working vaccine for Covid in the span of a year (as many governments are suggesting) seems absurd.

Regardless of lockdown measures, infection rates continue to climb in many nations, thereby justifying EVEN LONGER or more frequent lockdowns.

It’s obviously not to slow the virus and save lives as an effective vaccine is unlikely to be developed in time for the lockdowns to matter. But, if you wanted to quickly implement a totalitarian system, then using a global health threat as justification might be the ticket.
The problem for the establishment will be this: How can they keep the tyranny going once they have it? Ultimately, for a totalitarian system to work it NEEDS a large portion of the public to support it on principle. The public has to believe that the loss of their liberties is necessary to their survival for the long term.

Another glaring issue is the media response to the riots. They refer to the protests as exclusively peaceful despite mass looting, destruction of private property and violence.

The issue of social distancing and virus spread is dismissed or ignored when it comes to BLM.
By extension, examine the mainstream media response to the protests against coronavirus lockdown restrictions. No riots, no looting, no violence on the part of conservative and moderate protesters, yet the media demonizes them as if they are a threat to the very fabric of our society. Look at how quick authorities have been to arrest people who refuse to follow lockdown restrictions, and take into account how aggressive arrests have been in other countries like Australia, Spain or the UK for doing nothing more than posting messages on Facebook or not wearing a mask on the street.

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS:
The washout-low price move in FANG stocks may present a needed rotation in price before another upside move sets up.
Tweezer Bottoms pattern and RSI pennant formation suggest very clear support levels.
Watch how Volume and the VIX pick up over the next few days, and how price reacts to this bounce at 945.
Our Custom FANG Index (consisting of Facebook, Microsoft, Twitter, Amazon, Google, and Nvidia) shows the FANG Index, and technology sector, are trading just above critical support near 945. The congestion area on this chart between July and August just below this 945 level highlights the key resistance/support level that we are currently watching as price support.
TWEEZER BOTTOMS MAY SUGGEST MORE UPSIDE POTENTIAL
This Custom FANG Index Weekly chart clearly slows the Tweezer Bottoms pattern that formed in the markets after the close on Tuesday, September 8, 2020. This pattern suggests a very clear support level is found near the recent lows – near 945. If this support level holds, then the FANG Index price should begin to bounce and move higher. If this support level is broken, prices may continue to push lower while attempting to find historical support levels.
The Fibonacci Price Amplitude Arcs suggest a broader price frequency inflection point is also setting up near the recent peak. This Fibonacci Price Amplitude Arc suggests a major inflection point is taking place in the Custom FANG index right now. We believe the 945 level resulting from the Tweezer Bottoms pattern is a critical price level to support a future price rally in this sector.
Lastly, we want to point out the Pennant/Flag formation in the RSI indicator over the past 8+ months (highlighted in RED). The combination of these technical patterns, as well as the new Tweezer Bottoms pattern, suggests the current breakdown to the 945 level may present a “washout-low” type rotation after the RSI Pennant Apex. Overall, this downside move in the FANG index represents a moderately strong APEX rotation. If this is a “washout” rotation, then we may be setting up for another big upside price move soon.

Right now, we are cautiously watching the 945 level and expecting the Custom FANG Index to recover from these Tweezer Bottoms lows. We believe there is a very solid chance that the washout-low price move may present a needed rotation in price before another upside move sets up.
Watch for the markets and technology sector to attempt a recovery as long as the 945 level on this Custom FANG Index chart holds.

investmentwatchblog--2020-09-10--Stocks Struggle, But Gold is Looking Better and Better

Stocks began to bounce yesterday .
The question now is if this bounce has legs or if it ’ s just a blip in a new downtrend .
Both the S & P 500 and the NASDAQ have broken the downward channels ( blue lines ) established by the recent correction .
However , thus far only the S & P 500 has broken above resistance ( red line ) .
So , this is something of a tossup .
The above chart tells us that there was little if any real organic buying yesterday .
If real buyers had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taken out resistance with little issue .
The fact they didn ’ t tell us that day traders came in and then were forced to unload their longs before the session ended , hence why the NASDAQ put in those two weak candles in the last half of the session .
Based on this alone , we need to see some follow through to the upside today to issue an “ all clear ” for a significant bounce .
Again , I ’ d not pile into stocks just yet .
Having said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in gold .
Gold has held up remarkably well while stocks plunged 10 % in just three days .
Normally you ’ d expect to see gold be liquidated .
Instead , it ’ s actually fallen LESS than stocks !
This suggests pressure is building to the upside .
Gold may be ready for its next leg up .
On that note , we just published a Special Investment Report concerning FIVE contrarian investments you can use to make precious metals pay you as inflation rips through the financial system in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Inflationary Storm .
And it explains in very simply terms how to make inflation PAY YOU through care investing in the precious metals sector and precious metals mining .
We have made 100 copies available to the general public .
As I write this , there are only 29 left .

Why is everyone trying to convince the public to use digital wallets for everything ?

Why is everyone trying to convince the public to use digital wallets for everything?
For years the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been trying to force Real-ID’s down Americans throats. But a recent announcement on their Science and Technology (S&T) website revealed just how committed DHS is to tracking every American digitally.
DHS’s latest idea is to offer companies a “Prize Challenge” to convince the public to use their digital wallet for travel and much more.
“S&T uses prize competitions to invite ideas and solutions directly from the public, or crowd, called crowdsourcing. Prizes enable us to engage citizen-solvers in prize competitions for top ideas and concepts, and breakthroughs in science and technology to help DHS.”
By offering corporations money to develop a better digital biometric wallet, DHS has entered into the business of bribery. Dictionary.com defines bribery “as the act of giving money (or something else of value) to someone to get them to do something you want them to do, especially something they’re not supposed to do.”
The Feds should not be offering companies money to design better ways to collect information on the public. Period. Americans do not want our government collecting and storing our biometric information.
Companies can submit their designs for a better digital wallet beginning Tuesday 9/8/2020-Thursday 10/15/2020.
“S&T is calling upon innovators to design a better UI for digital wallets. The total prize purse is $25,000. Winning designs will be easy-to-use, trustworthy and improve the overall user experience and management of digital wallet-based credentials.”
As the video below explains, a better digital wallet will allow DHS and the TSA to have easy access to everyone’s personal information.
IDEMIA’s digital wallet stores all kinds of personal information
“DHS is looking for a UI design that supports best practices for visual consistency, ensures security and privacy, is interoperable, and can be integrated with existing back-end processes. The UI needs to instill confidence in the user of the digital wallet that their online interactions are secure and that the parties they are interacting with are legitimate. The goal of this Challenge is to foster better UIs for digital wallets to be used by DHS and anyone in the community.”
The main reason they are offering a prize challenge is to instill confidence in the public that storing your biometric information on a smartphone is secure.

Stage 1: Up to three finalists will each receive $5,000. Stage 1 finalists advance to Stage 2.
Stage 2: One grand prize winner will receive an additional $10,000 at the conclusion of the Challenge.
According to DHS’s “judging” section their new and improved digital wallet must be “easy-to-use” and follow the “World Wide Web Consortium’s” (WWWC) guidelines.
The WWWC’s orgins are highly suspect and scream DHS front company.
According to Wikipedia the WWWC was founded at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Laboratory for Computer Science with support from the European Commission, and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). DARPA’s involvement with digital wallets is a huge red-flag.
Companies like IDEMIA, YOTI and iProov are just a few examples of how much personal information, corporations and DHS will store on digital wallets.
A recent news release from YOTI about digital wallets in the United Kingdom proves that they will be used to buy alcohol, rent apartments and much more.
“Secondly, the government has signaled that there is legislation in the works to ensure that digital ID can be used as broadly as possible. We know there are some easy wins for the government, like changing the existing mandatory licensing regime for alcohol sales to allow retailers to rely on robust, privacy-preserving digital age verification. In addition, the industry seeks certainty that amendments, such as usage of digital ID for Right to Rent Checks, will continue after the COVID-19 pandemic ends.”
With so many red flags about digital wallets, one would do well to ask, do you really want to hand over your biometric identity to the Feds?
Are Americans ready to give up their last remaining vestige of privacy: their biometrics? Only time will tell.

Russia’s central bank has warned that crude oil prices could slump to $25 in its risk scenario for monetary policy over the next three years, TASS reports.
That scenario, which is the bank’s worst case for 2021 to 2023, also includes heightened geopolitical tensions, a second wave of coronavirus infections, and other economic shocks. Debt problems and trade tensions are also included in that scenario.
The update from the bank comes amid falling oil prices, pressured by changing outlooks on demand as the pick-up that started in May and continued through July is showing signs of a slow-down, raising doubts about its sustainability.
Among the latest of worrisome signs, Saudi Arabia said it would cut its official selling prices for crude in a move hardly anyone expected given the Kingdom’s upbeat stance on oil demand. Separately, reports of rising oil and fuel inventories in floating storage pressured benchmarks as commodity traders chartered tankers to store fuel and crude offshore.

The news of rising floating storage is particularly worrisome because it means that onshore storage space is still full, despite a moderate increase in fuel demand after most lockdowns eased in May.
In further bad news, Bloomberg reported that Chinese oil imports continued to fall in August, after they fell in July from a record-high in June. Even though a decline from the record-high June import rate could be expected, the information did not help an already sensitive market. Further declines are on the way, Bloomberg noted, as the state import quotas issued to independent refiners fill up.
With Covid-19 rising in many large oil markets, including India and the United States, uncertainty about the future of oil’s fundamentals remains unusually high. Even so, in the base-case scenario of the Russian central bank, prices are seen recovering to about $50 a barrel by the end of 2022. The institution recognized the hesitancy of global economic recovery in this scenario as well, noting that it remained doubtful whether things would return to pre-pandemic normalcy.

investmentwatchblog--2020-09-10--The World Economy in One Chart: GDP by Country

The coronavirus is upending the global economy in a lot of ways .
Many companies are allowing their employees to work remotely forever .
Millions of Americans remain unemployed due to shutdowns and cutbacks .
And the future is still very cloudy as to what shape a recovery will eventually take .
Our latest visualization captures the state of the global economy on the eve of all the coronavirus disruption .
• The U.S. remains by far the largest economy in the world with a GDP of $ 21.43T or 24.42 % of the entire globe .
• China ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to $ 14.34 , but the country is still nowhere close to catching up to the U.S. • The rest of the world ’ s economic powerhouses have comparatively much smaller economies , including Japan ( $ 5.08T ) , Germany ( $ 3.84T ) and India ( $ 2.88T ) .
• Our visualization doesn ’ t take into account the size of each country ’ s population .
We found the data for 2019 gross domestic product figures over at the World Bank .
First we divided the “ pie ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Then , we sized each country according to its relative contribution to the world ’ s GDP , in effect creating a snapshot of the global economy on the eve of the coronavirus depression .
The first and most obvious insight from our visual is just how big the U.S. economy is compared to the rest of the world .
At $ 21.43T , the Americans enjoy an economy that is more than $ 7T larger than the second biggest , China , at $ 14.34T .
Another insight is how the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ $ 5.08T ) , Germany ( $ 3.84T ) and India ( $ 2.88T ) , are actually not very big compared to the U.S. and China .
In fact , the rest of the world is made up of relatively small economies .
Only 17 countries have a GDP figure of at least $ 1T .
One of the most interesting things to do with this type of visual is to compare how it changes from year to year .
India ’ s economy continued to grow and surpassed both the United @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fifth largest in the world at $ 2.88T .
The United States ( $ 21.43T ) and China ( $ 14.34 ) both grew in size overall as well as a relative slice of the global economy , changing from 23.89 % to 24.42 % for the U.S. and from 15.86 % to 16.34 % for China .
This means there is still a large gap between the American and Chinese economies , and China has a long way to go to overtake the top spot .
A key thing to remember @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not take into account population .
The U.S. has a significantly bigger economy than countries like China and India , but the U.S. also has significantly fewer people .
The average American is therefore a lot wealthier and enjoys a higher standard of living compared to the average person in China or India .
Our visualization of GDP per capita supports this conclusion .
Do you think the coronavirus will change the ranking of the largest countries by GDP ?

California businesses are leaving the state in droves .
In just 2018 and 2019—economic boom years—765 commercial facilities left California .
This exodus doesn ’ t count Charles Schwab ’ s announcement to leave San Francisco next year .
Nor does it include the 13,000 estimated businesses to have left between 2009 and 2016 .
The reason ?
Economics , plain and simple .
California is too expensive , and its taxes and regulations are too high .
The Tax Foundation ranks California 48th in terms of business climate .
California is also ranked 48th in terms of regulatory burdens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ living is 50 percent higher than the national average .
These statistics show why California ’ s business and living climate have become so challenging .
But the frustrations that California entrepreneurs face every day present a different way of understanding their relocation decisions .
Erica Douglas , a young tech entrepreneur , moved her company , Whoosh Traffic , from San Diego to Austin , Texas , a few years ago .
Here is what she had to say : “ I ’ m leaving you .
I ’ ve struggled with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from high taxes on earning to badgering businesses to work more to comply with bureaucracy .
I paid enough in California income tax in one year alone to hire another worker for my business .
And you charge me $ 800 annually as a corporation fee , when most states charge just a few dollars.
” Not surprisingly , California businesses tend to relocate from the counties with the highest taxes , highest regulatory burdens , and most expensive real estate , such as San Francisco , and they tend to relocate to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Texas imposes just a 0.75 % franchise tax on business margins , compared to California ’ s 8.85 % corporate tax .
As if this large difference weren ’ t enough of an incentive to leave , the city of San Francisco imposes a 0.38 % payroll tax , and a 0.6 % gross-receipts tax on financial service companies .

Erica Douglas, a young tech entrepreneur, moved her company, Whoosh Traffic, from San Diego to Austin, Texas, a few years ago. Here is what she had to say:
“Dear California,
“I’m leaving you. I’ve struggled with a government that is notoriously business-unfriendly—with everything from high taxes on earning to badgering businesses to work more to comply with bureaucracy. I paid enough in California income tax in one year alone to hire another worker for my business. And you charge me $800 annually as a corporation fee, when most states charge just a few dollars.”
Not surprisingly, California businesses tend to relocate from the counties with the highest taxes, highest regulatory burdens, and most expensive real estate, such as San Francisco, and they tend to relocate to states where it is easier to prosper. Texas imposes just a 0.75% franchise tax on business margins, compared to California’s 8.85% corporate tax. As if this large difference weren’t enough of an incentive to leave, the city of San Francisco imposes a 0.38% payroll tax, and a 0.6% gross-receipts tax on financial service companies. Yes, if your business is in San Francisco, not only are your profits taxed by the state, but your payroll and your output are taxed as well. Not to mention that Texas has no individual income tax, compared to California’s current top rate of 13.3%, which may rise to 16.3% soon, and which would apply retroactively.
Speaking of California entrepreneurs leaving the state, there is Paul Petrovich. If you live near Sacramento, chances are your life has been made easier by Paul. He is a major commercial real estate developer whose projects include facilities involving Costco, Target, Walmart, McDonalds, Wells Fargo, and Verizon, among other major firms. But Petrovich has announced he will soon be leaving. For . . . drumroll please . . . Texas.
