I once owned a home in the northern woods built by Finlanders . It had a small two room sauna hut (changing room and the sauna itself) built in the back yard fueled by wood fire heating river rocks . When I would catch a virus I would stoke up the sauna and after a half hour in the steam the symptoms would disappear , but return to the house and within an hour felt the symptoms return .

I postulate that the equatorial African nations regularly take Ivermectin to prevent river blindness , but also are hot and too poor for air conditioning systems , so viruses do not do well .

Re Covid

We know it was man made, due to it’s genetic signature, it could not be natural, as some parts of the string, are in the wrong places for it to have evolved. It almost certainly came out of that Wuhan lab, where they were experimenting with such virus, for gain of function…..why release….very likely Xi released it to enable him to shut China down, as the people were getting restive back then…he has yet to release restrictions etc.

Plus Vaccine Billy and Crazy Klaus were already talking about a pandemic being imminent…it suited them as well…and all those vaccines turning up so fast…stank like hell.

I can’t help it. From the start my instinct suggested the Covid germs were spread all over the world on purpose, like dust into the air somehow. I had a hard time believing it got spread so fast by people traveling to China. Some people think the virus was spread around just to get rid of Trump. If it was spread on purpose, it might have had something to do with shocking disrupting and changing the global economy.

The future was pretty damn obvious for me, after seeing all the stores started hiring foreigners from around the world to fabricate Americans consumer products. Everybody here was “wealthy” before 1975, when the stores hired Americans to manufacture our needs.

So the US population (customers) gradually got poorer after 1975 as the retail sector, stores, got very wealthy using cheaper foreign labor, and they kept expanding while their customers were contracting, less work lower wages lagging inflation.

So the people were zigging, (wealthy)  and the stores started zigging (wealthy) as the consumers started zagging (poorer) and the stores kept on zigging (wealthy) until they noticed “Gee we have way too many stores compared to spenders what do we do now? We start importing more immigrants”.

That the new news ya know. News grows. “We have a shortage of cheap labor, and we need immigrants or it will kill our economy”. The business dominated system we have likes cheap labor and materials.  That old agenda caught up with big business.

Now its the US Gov’t needs higher wages and profits in the USA to tax and function. Big global businesses will probably contract now, its getting harder for them to get away with that these days. Especially having things made in China appears to be ending.

Cramer made the remark that the Chinese are having so much trouble with Covid because they didn’t have the reverse engineered Covid vaccines that we have. What a dolt!

I have absolutely no respect for him since he stated that the whole US population should be mandated to get the jab. Nazi Cramer. I’ll never forget.

The Consumer Economy Has Completely Collapsed – “It’s A Ghost Town” For Holiday Shopping Everywhere

Authored by Sundance via TheConservativeTreehouse.com,

“Crowds? I see nothing. I’m surprised,” retail worker Jeremy Pritchett told FOX 2.

“Normally, it’s wrapped all the way around the building. Today: no one.”

That’s the typical ground report from areas all over the country. No one, literally almost no one, is doing any holiday shopping and the traditional Black Friday rush to get deals and discounts just didn’t happen. Financial media are scratching their puzzlers, perplexed with furrowed brows.

re China…..i read some where that apparently some military is out and bout, but that they had had to bring them in from afar in Beijing, because the local military were not willing…..

No matter what the worlds second largest economy is not gonna feature and even the scum can’t solve that problem, without looking insane…which has never worried them before…but the likes of Apple have a real problem.

Interesting stuff going on in China. Seems those protests are big enough that the military isn’t doing the usual bloody crackdown?

The other thing in business news here is the railroad worker’s strike. If they actually do strike, our supply chains will be shut in half – at least.

Looks like they’re going to turn $1760 spot into the big brick wall. Despite the USD being down, rates are flat, so we don’t have that tailwind. Still, flat is good if most everything else is down.

Oil cud well have a problem with a slowing world economy….yr yield curve says recession…..’effwits everywhere are in charge and now China cud be out of the picture, due to serious unrest and people just not bothering, if Xi and Co stay on top.

Opec may need to cut again.

So weird being up this early on the east coast.

Looks a lot better for our pm’s than it did a few hours ago.

Tough to find anything up this am except gold inching back above $1760, not big move but steady as the DOW is down a couple hundy, Naz and SPX down 1%. Oil is the kicker, down 3%. USD down .4%

Is it possible the Fed is engineering some deflationary pressures? ZH had an article that said demand for oil is falling. We know they’ve already crushed housing and that will get worse. Problem for them is how they can increase supply to bring prices down as the USD starts to roll over.

Regardless, I’m glad to see pm’s steady as the other markets are weak. Long way to go yet this am though.

A while back I was able to meet two Western reporters, who lived in China and reported on it, they admitted that because the Chinese so happily lie to Westerners, it was nigh on impossible to find out what was going on, especially if they didn’t want to tell you….

That said I think Xi may have been keeping the lockdowns going, to try and hold down the population…as we know the bug has mutated to a baddish cold now….so why are the authorities seen in full hazmet suits, still…….if not to scare the people….who it seems have had enough……

Whatever the case I think we can take China out as any creator of growth for the future, which is going to be SM v bearish and v bullish PM’s, especially if it gets nasty ….which it will.

Rare catch

COVID most definitely is ‘here’…. it’s just that everyone is ignoring it now.   China wants “NONE” and so locks down with every new surge they detect.  They will fail miserably.   I’m not ‘shot’ and have managed not to get the bug by judicious social distancing.   But it’s out there.

Micronesia was locked down for 2-1/2 years with borders closed.  My friend waited to go back to his other home in Yap.   Somehow, the bug got in at a local funeral and spread rapidly, just as the country opened the borders.  My friend returned to Yap, caught COVID within hours, and got over it in days.   On their island they had 6,500 cases… the whole populace, essentially.  And most were vaccinated.  Only five deaths attributed to COVID.   So now that the bug has run it’s course, everybody has natural immunity and is over the whole pandemic scare thing, and don’t bother to wear masks anymore.

What I want to know, is why the first time, it spread all over the planet is 24 hours, and not this time? Less international travel? Or is the crap sprayed is areas where they want Covid to slow the economy down to prevent a hyperinflation.

During the 1970s to kill the inflationary psychology, they simply raised the rates so high banks took in lots of money supply with CDs etc. It killed real estate and auto sales and the Dow under 1000 for 12-14 years.

Remember years ago they wanted a bomb that would only kill people and not destroy the buildings? This would be similar. Kill inflationary psychology by making people sick and or stay home and stop spending, to stop higher prices.

Raising rates to 21% again is not affordable these days, it would destroy the “buildings” etc. Is this a new method used or being tested, in China to take away the punch bowl? Lets hope he she or it doesn’t spread all over again. We don’t need to go thru that again.

SM is getting clobbered, rates are soft, Dollar has slight bid, Oil falls…..as China news effects the mkts….so scum take AU back below $ 1750……

the continued lockdowns, have triggered it.
