Friday’s American stock market provided further evidence of instability in the nation’s economy, and even as financiers fear a possible fiscal disaster in September, there has been little coverage among U.S. media.
But the state-run media of Russia is warning of what it calls America’s “economic apocalypse.”
The Russian news service Sputnik, an agency launched by Russia’s state-owned Rossiya Segodnya in 2014 to “target global audiences with its non-mainstream take on world events,” predicts doom for the American economy next month.
In a recent article, Sputnik cites several economists warning of catastrophe.
It continues: “Most of the experts agree that all the optimistic data like record earnings on Wall Street and a surging dollar is just disguising fundamental cracks, and the collapse of historic proportions will happen within few months, starting in the U.S.
“No wonder such forecasts, and there are dozens, from professional economists leave U.S. and the world dizzy and shivering in fear and helplessness, just what one would probably feel if the actual apocalypse was coming.”
September 2015 has become the focal point of warnings and speculation because of a strange confluence of events.
These include:
The seven-year, biblical Shemitah cycle ends Sept. 13
The European Organization for Nuclear Research
begins a controversial experiment
Pope Francis arrives at the White House on Sept. 23 and will make an unprecedented address to a joint session of Congress the next day
The fourth and last “blood moon” in the tetrad occurs on Sept. 28, on the biblical Feast of Tabernacles
With temporal, spiritual and economic events lining up for next month, some pastors are urging Christians to be prepared, warning they cannot rely on most American media outlets to report the truth.

lots of signs point to bad things happening just before the FOMC meeting on September 17th
++++
I thought that prediction was cancelled and replaced by one with a December date.
In any case, tomorrow will be an interesting day. Will it be bottom feeders or panicky traders controlling the market.
Any predictions?
if futures are any indication, panic will win the day... but the PPT is always around so you never know when you’re going to get a massive ramp up on zero volume

three quarters of a percent down across the board even after two days of heavy losses is an absolutely terrible sign
“With temporal, spiritual and economic events lining up for next month, some pastors are urging Christians to be prepared, warning them not to be superstitious.”
I went to the ATM this evening to get some cash out and it crashed during the transaction...maybe just a coincidence?
Some really, really nutty stuff.
Maybe, but they do NOT include:
> The seven-year, biblical Shemitah cycle ends Sept. 13
> The European Organization for Nuclear Research
begins a controversial experiment
> Pope Francis and will make an unprecedented address to a joint session of Congress
>The fourth and last “blood moon” in the tetrad occurs on Sept. 28, on the biblical Feast of Tabernacles
That is kookiness that goes beyond tinfoil.
But our U.S. Defense forces will be operating just fine for the rest of your lives.
Oh, my apologies. I thought I had read the article fairly closely. Guess I missed the part about Harry Potter being in charge of the Fed. Sorry about that.</sarc>
I'll take economics based on moral principles given by God and participated in by those who believe they are accountable to God. (I know that idea is so naive and ancient in today's world.)
You can have the humanist, Godless economics we now have in the world. Everything seems to be working out so well for us, eh? </sarc>
Weekends are the busy time for ATMs.
Guess I've lost all credibility. So it probably wouldn't do any good to try to tell you about a rumor that Obama is working to ensure Iran gets nukes, and another rumor about Hillary and Benghazi and her private server, and......
Never mind you wouldn't have believed it anyway. It's too beyond tinfoil.
The seven-year, biblical Shemitah cycle ends Sept. 13... you'll need divine intervention to keep from going broke.The European Organization for Nuclear Research begins a controversial experiment
Pope Francis arrives at the White House on Sept. 23 and will make an unprecedented address to a joint session of Congress the next day
The fourth and last “blood moon” in the tetrad occurs on Sept. 28, on the biblical Feast of Tabernacles
markets throwing a tantrum in the face of a possible Fed rate hike is fairly well grounded though
Yes. Maybe.
But what about the economic collapse of Venezuela? The economic collapse of Greece? The economic collapse of Russia?
The economic collapse of China?
Shhh. Don't tell anyone, but actually I use one of those black magic eight balls from the 60's with liquid inside that I picked up at a yard sale in the early 80's. You ask it questions and shake it and an answer floats to the little viewing window.
For example, I asked it just a couple of minutes ago if I should reply to stupid posts on this article and the answer was "probably not a good idea."
Guess I should have listened, eh?
Hey, the crap is in your article,
not my pointing it out.
Never mind. Don’t worry about it. The government will take care of you.
Check back with me in October.
A Magic 8-Ball is better than Russian state-owned media, so there’s that . . . .
I’d have to see what the Shanghai Exchange is doing. It opened a little over an hour ago.
