GRAHAM EATS HUMBLE PIE WITH HOT INFLATION FOR DESSERT

Well, I was wrong.

I had previously written that the election was in the courts and that based on legal precedent, the courts would give President Trump a second term.

The Supreme Court put that notion to rest late on Friday night when it rejected to even hear the case brought by Texas and 18 other states.

It's pretty staggering if you think about it.

There are sworn affidavits from thousands of poll workers swearing to witnessing fraud. There are vote audits that have turned up fraud. There is statistical analysis that shows fraud. There is historical precedent concerning how key counties and states determine election outcomes that show fraud. 

And yet the courts have all either refused to accept any of this evidence… OR refused to even listen to the cases. It's pretty incredible when you consider just how many ridiculous lawsuits and court cases are heard at all levels of the judiciary, even the Supreme Court.

There are still several cases outstanding as well as political avenues through which President Trump could secure a second term, but those are all EXTREME and likely not worth delving into at this point.  

At the end of the day, I was wrong. 

I am not in the business of pretending to be psychic, nor do I care for those analysts and pundits who make predictions that don't prove correct and who then pretend they never made said predictions.

I predicted President Trump would win a second term in the courts. I was wrong. The end.

What matters to us as investors now is how a Biden administration will impact the markets. And by the look of things, the markets love the idea that Biden will packing the Fed and the Treasury with money printers.

The US was already on a trajectory towards hot inflation BEFORE Joe Biden won the election and started enlisting money printers like Janet Yellen to run key positions in his cabinet. Now that we DO have a Biden administration and it is packed with money printers, it's not a question of IF we get HOT inflation, but WHEN.

On that note, the $USD has continued to break down in a big way. As I write this, it's dropping like a stone, again. We are now coming up on MAJOR support in the large consolidation pattern that the $USD has been following since 2015.

A breakdown here, would signal a move into HOT inflation.

On that note, it's worth pointing out that gold has ERUPTED to new all-time highs priced in EVERY major currency (Dollars, Euros, Yen and Francs). 

This is THE big theme for 2021. It is global in nature. And those investors who are well positioned to profit from it could see literal fortunes.

Fwd: The Looming Bank Collapse The U.S. financial system could be on the cusp of calamity. This time, we might not be able to save it.

After months  of living with the coronavirus pandemic, American citizens are well aware of the toll it has taken on the economy: broken supply chains, record unemployment, failing small businesses. All of these factors are serious and could mire the United States in a deep, prolonged recession. But there's another threat to the economy, too. It lurks on the balance sheets of the big banks, and it could be cataclysmic. Imagine if, in addition to all the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, you woke up one morning to find that the financial sector had collapsed. You may think that such a crisis is unlikely, with memories of the 2008 crash still so fresh. But banks learned few lessons from that calamity, and new laws intended to keep them from taking on too much risk have failed to do so. As a result, we could be on the precipice of another crash, one different from 2008 less in kind than in degree. This one could be worse.

3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds

3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds https://www.forbes.com/ 3 Reasons Why Gold Will Outperform Equities And Bonds For centuries, gold has played a major role in human history and has become interwoven into the financial fabric of society. Beyond its investment following, gold has become synonymous with wealth. Historically, gold's early use cases revolved around money – a form of "medium of exchange". After the second world war however, several countries and their respective currencies, started to shift away from the gold standard and migrated towards a fiat currency system. Today, gold remains largely a "Store of Value", and due to its unique properties and large number of use cases, it has managed to distance itself from other asset classes in terms of correlation, demand / supply drivers, and investment purpose. Gold's idiosyncrasies function as a double-edged sword, as it is challenging to predict ...
