  • CURRENT EVENT PREDICTIONS

    • In order to keep current with important events, I will address significant national issues as they develop. The Healthcare bill, for instance, was accurately forecast to pass in December 2009 (the House and the Senate bills both passed; a compromise bill must now be worked out, which is exceedingly difficult due to the Democratic Party loss of Edward Kennedy’s Senate seat to a Republican). The bill will appear all but dead February-April but, then, a significance chance for compromise and forward movement presents itself.

  • FINANCIAL FORECAST

    • The National Debt:
    The stock market forecast for 2008 was right on the "lost" money. The 2008 recession is the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression entitling it to be called the Great Recession. This credit/mortgage crisis has triggered a worldwide depression. As the financial crisis has spread, the government's commitments have grown into the trillions of dollars. The economic stimulus package and the Obama administrations drive to expand the scope of government programs have created the greatest and fastest growing debt in our nation’s history.

  • THE ECONOMY AND THE STOCK MARKET

    • History is not immutable but one factor is noticeable again and again: the rise and fall of great nations hinges primarily on their economic strength. Rome, Imperial China, Venice, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, and the United Kingdom all had their heyday, and their international decline followed their economic decline. The spectacular economic growth in the United States was fueled by cheap domestic oil. But now that the "age of oil" is nearing an end alternative sources of energy are needed.
