Depression, Debt, Default & Destruction in 2025 -Martin Armstrong
USA Watchdog ^ | 21 Dec24 | Martin Armstrong

Posted on 12/22/2024 9:10:56 AM PST by delta7

By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (Saturday Night Post)

Legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong is back with a new round of predictions, and they are not going to make life easy for President Elect Trump. Armstrong says, “Our computer has been projecting that we are going into a depression in some areas and a recession in other areas. A depression most likely in Europe and a recession in the United States up until 2028. . . . At my November conference, everybody was celebrating after Trump won. I stood up and told my clients, ‘I’m sorry, Trump is not going to have a blissful administration, and he’s not going to prevent the economic decline.’ (Please remember, Armstrong predicted Donald Trump would win in a landslide many months before the November 2024 Election.)

Armstrong goes on to say, “We have a serious, serious problem on a global scale. . . . The sovereign debt crisis is really going to start percolating in 2025. It’s probably going to reach a major crisis by 2026 and 2027. Why? They have dictated all these banks and pension funds . . . 70%, generally, must be invested in government bonds. . . . They say it’s ‘safe,’ but it’s the worst debt possible. . . . So, if the government goes into a sovereign default, what happens? You wipe out the banking system and the pensions.”

Does Armstrong think the governments around the world are going to go into a sovereign default? Armstrong says, “Oh yeah. How does a government default? We are in this Ponzi Scheme. They have to keep selling new debt to pay off the old debt. . . . When you can’t sell the new debt, that’s when the default happens because you can’t pay off the old debt.”

What should the average guy do now? Does Armstrong think people should get to the bank and get cash? Armstrong says, “Yes, cash, physical paper money. We just had two hurricanes here in Florida. This idea of Bitcoin and CBDCs are very nice, but what’s the reality? The internet was down for 10 days. A credit card did not work. You wanted something, it was cash only. It was the same in Canada when they froze all the accounts of the truckers. They could not even buy food. Unless you had cash, you were dead in the water. This is why I am saying to have cash in this point in time.” Armstrong still likes physical gold, too.

Armstrong says the digital currencies that are getting a lot of attention lately are only a control mechanism. Armstrong contends digital money will stop bank runs. Armstrong still thinks the world will be at war by April or May of 2025. Armstrong says watch Turkey with its huge conventional army. Armstrong says Jordan and Lebanon may also be taken over, and like Syria, Turkey will be orchestrating this move. Armstrong says the Middle East is setting up for a major conflict starting in 2025, and there will be destruction. Armstrong also predicts Europe will be on the losing end of the next world war.

In closing, Armstrong says, “They can’t stop Trump from taking office, but they can delay him with martial law. Martial law has been enacted 60 times in the United States. . . . The neocons are scared to death of Trump and really want to trap him in war before he takes office.”

There is much more in the 56-minute interview….

I posted similar sentiments months ago.

The last time my industry saw a decline of this magnitude in resale revenue was in 2007.

Here we are again.

Along my lines of thought, even though I’ve not read his prior articles in some time.

My tin-hat mind can’t help but wonder why there seems to be a coordinated effort to destroy the world’s financial system, and I also can’t help but wonder if it has something to do with Apophis.

But in the absence of the mysterious death and/or disappearances of astrophysicists, it seems geared to a dollar collapse and reorganization under the stronger leadership (chyna). DJT threw a huge monkey wrench in that, so DJT will be blamed for everything which is coming (as planned since they knew they anointed a dementia patient as PuppetOTUS).

‘Not’ blissful administration indeed.

[tin-hat off]

I can only hope that he’s strong enough to genuinely slash & burn the bureaucracy before he leaves so that we have half a chance of surviving the fallout.

Is this Armstrong guy a billionaire?

If not his predictions must not be very good.

I’ll bet you that he’s richer than you are.

Your correct predictions must be non-existent.

I don’t know how rich he is, but some aspects of his personal history don’t inspire much confidence.

“We are in this Ponzi Scheme.”

If there is one thing Armstrong know, it is ponzi schemes.

Cost him eleven years in jail and his securities trading license.

“Does Armstrong think the governments around the world are going to go into a sovereign default? Armstrong says, “Oh yeah.”

Armstrong predicted that the would would have a sovereign default in 2015!

A stopped clock is right once each day.

“Armstrong still thinks the world will be at war by April or May of 2025. “

What happened to your prediction of the US civil war starting first, next year?

“Armstrong still thinks the world will be at war by April or May of 2025.”

In less than a month I will be posting about another failed prediction.

I wonder how much he pays his internet shills ...

Glad to see you are reading / listening to his interviews. 2027/2028 is listed on his ECM charts for full blown Sovereign Defaults ( realized),among other changes.

Keep reading, then observe, time is telling.

\”Is this Armstrong guy a billionaire?”

Three bankruptcies

Eleven years in jail

Lost hundreds of $millions of other peoples’ money in bad trades

Lost his securities license and banned from giving financial advice.

Lives off stolen assets hidden away before the feds nabbed him.

None of that precludes his being a genius in certain areas.

He took down his 2015 prediction for the same ...

Looking to what happened in Florida is a good guide. No electricity in those areas hit for up to two weeks is a good primer.

That said, I don’t expect “ Armageddon “, nor does Armstrong. Keep in mind trade and commerce always continues….only the form of “ settlement” changes.
Today’s form of settlement may not be the form in times of disruption.

I’ll bet Aquila didn’t steal his assets and spend eleven years in prison!
