WHOA!
Richard Russell, the famous writer of the Dow Theory Letters, has a chilling line in today's note:
Do your friends a favor. Tell them to "batten down the hatches" because there's a HARD RAIN coming. Tell them to get out of debt and sell anything they can sell (and don't need) in order to get liquid. Tell them that Richard Russell says that by the end of this year they won't recognize the country. They'll retort, "How the dickens does Russell know -- who told him?" Tell them the stock market told him.
That's pretty intense!
Update: By popular demand, here's more on what he sees in the market:
And I ask myself, "Am I seeing things? The April 26 high for the Dow was 11205.03. The Dow is selling as write at 10557 down 648 points from its April high. If business is even better than expected, then why is the Dow down over 600 points? And why, if there were 674 new highs on the NYSE on April 26, were there only 20 new highs on Friday, May 14? And if my PTI was 6133 on April 26, why is it down 17 points since its April high?
The fact is that I've been seeing deterioration in the stock market ever since early-April, and this in the face of improving business news. The D-J Industrial Average is composed of 30 internationally known top-quality blue-chip stocks. These are 30 of "America's biggest companies." If Barron's is so bullish on the future of America's

Buy GOLD. Buy Silver. Specie, not stocks. Bullion, not numismatic.
And that, in turn, is why The Won is doing his level-best to try to destroy this country.
He hates Western Civilization in general and the United States in particular.
He (and his masters on the other end of the Blackberry) know that the United States is the keystone of the arch of Western Civilization, and if they can take us out the whole arch comes tumbling down.
LOL ... that too... I think ...
Yep!
“You can’t go wrong with a few thousand dollars like that. “
Oh, yes you can.
If it were that easy, there would be 300,000 people at each tax lien sale, or forclosure sale, including me.
The only safe way to do that is buy a tax lien, and wait to be bought out by the sucker who inadvertently got his house sucked out from underneath him. It takes as long as 2 years, before you can’t be paid off.
There are 3 and 4 bedroom homes for sale in Detroit for 6-12,000. Why do you think nobody wants them?

Well, he's gonna have a "heck of a time" being "President" over a lot of little and disjointed and scattered "tribes" in different parts of what was "once known as the United States" ...
I would think he would have to "keep it together" (i.e., the "country") and he would have to, at least, food for everyone and have shelter for everyone -- and then he could still be "President" ... doncha know ... :-)
Just sayin' ... that's all... I don't want him as President, mind you ...
Cheap...and cheap to shoot.
Basically a souped up 9 mm..........And with hollow points..has knock down power.
FWIW
Sounds like where I’m at... on the edge of a small town. :-) ...a good place to be IMHO.

You weren't reading my comments up above, then ... because that's exactly what this acquaintance of mine was saying.
He got the properties at county tax sales -- and he got the deed within 48 hours and there is no recourse from the previous owner. He said that's the law now here.
He pointed out to me that he had some older "tax sale property" that he bought before the law was changed and he is almost through the redemption period and he'll be able to get the deed for the property. But, the ones he got recently, he says that the owner no longer has any recourse and he gets the deed in 48 hours or less, with absolutely no recourse from the previous owner. He was really emphatic on that point, and he said it was "great" for him. He could just tell them to move in three days or start paying him rent that he set for them.
That was my discussion ... you see ... :-)
The DJIA is down 55 as I post. See here.
Yeah, I do get your point ... :-)
“He got the properties at county tax sales — and he got the deed within 48 hours and there is no recourse from the previous owner. He said that’s the law now here. “
Oklahoma law?
Oh... one more thing I should mention, too ... Oklahoma is not Detroit... for sure ... :-)
67 now ;-)
Yes, Oklahoma law ... (again, according to him... I haven’t kept up on it ... but I’m going to check it out for myself, because it sounds interesting)...
The military has hardened/protected transmitters.
Same here... but I've owned it since before I knew what an "EMP" was. You can still buy full sets of tubes for specific radio models - I got a set off of eBay a while back. Mostly Russian tubes, but the specs are correct and they work well enough.
Nope, this guy is EVIL to the very marrow of his bones.
Destruction of this country is his life's calling
He would much rather be non-President of a destroyed US (or President of Washington DC) than be President of an intact US.
Our resident orator puts it much more eloquently:
You must understand that the people who've now gotten their hands on the apparatus of the State would rather rule in Hell than live in peace with the rest of us. They will happily reduce Western civilization to stinking pile of rubble and corpses as long as they believe that they will be the ones sitting on top of the ruins.
Not if it's in your house. My grandmother (may she rest in peace) kept a whole shoebox full of gold coins, not being much of an FDR fan. She passed them out to the grandkids in her old age. I still have mine.
In 1932 many people complied with the voice of God (FDR) coming over the radio. Today we laugh at Obama. He could *ask* people to turn in gold, but few would pay any attention.
He could send his officers to come search for it. That wouldn't end well, would it. I mean even the super patriotic Tea Party types who won't hear any talk of revolution or civil war might put up a fuss (with a gun) at FedGov goons coming to steal from you.
How many Waco's in a 12 month period do you think the Government could perpetrate and still remain the legitimate government? One? Three? Thirty? Three Hundred?? I claim the number is much closer to three than to three hundred. In other words, we don't tolerate the intolerable here, we don't have to. They know it, we know it.
No gold confiscation.
Now your 401K, *THAT* they can confiscate!!
Well, I didn’t vote him in ... but he got there anyway ... hoo-boy! And so I advocate voting him out the next Presidential election... but ... the question in my mind is whether the voting electorate will do that.
I find that many times the voting electorate doesn’t always go “my way” on these matters ... :-)
