“We are, I believe, involved at present in what I can only call a Third World War….Man’s struggle to save his personality from destruction by technology is something more than a substitute for war. It is a form of war itself.” ~ Arnold Toynbee (Tip of the hat to Truthstream Media)

As our discussion is lengthy, we will publish both full-length and chapter-length versions so you can listen selectively if you prefer.

In two subsequent segments in July, I will cover equity markets and publish the Blockbuster Chartology from Rambus for the 2nd Quarter 2018 and address our theme: The Rise of the Asian Consumer. The growth of the Asian middle class will impact all of us. This growth will be a major investment and cultural trend for decades to come.

In Money & Markets this week I will discuss the latest in financial and geopolitical news. I will collect the stories during the week at our weekly Money & Markets commentary. (Click Here) Make sure to e-mail or post your questions.

Catherine’s Money & Markets Commentary: June 21st 2018

  1. As a mystic, I would put forth that the world we live in is conscious…at different levels for sure, but all the consciousness of Prime Creator. So any system that has feed back loops and individual intend will become conscious–given enough complexity… Why do we need an mechanical AI? We have intuition and spiritual insight with a planetary consciousness and earth’s web of life… All of which, from my point of view, is here to help us to create and grow as human beings. Who desires this one focus and one theme future…? Their salesmen are many and ubiquitous but they are selling us that this is the only way to space and the galactic neighbors or this is the only way a solve their manufactured problems which they theatrically projected on us. First we were innocent but now we are becoming foolish. As I clarified before, I am a mystic and our intuition is just beginning to develop…we are babies. Most people think that most voices with in their head are theatrics of their own making and some voices and images are… some are from unseen beings, cell phones have a psychic conduction, and some from spiritual friends… If you were a telepathic species, how would you view us? Do we need to follow the herd to be become organic prosthetic of a mechanize consciousness? If you have got this far in my message, I would encourage you put your cell in metal pot (if you use it for an alarm, you will hear it) and turn off WiFi before you sleep… and be in nature as much as possible. This will allow your evolution into a more aware and free being. Much Love.

    1. Leadership needs AI to control and harvest a telepathic people with a powerful consciousness. And you ionize the atmosphere so that digital mechanisms and AI can track, simulate and manage all life. I don’t think we think we need this. I also think most of we do not understand what is happening.

      1. Thank you for your response. I feel that I have not communicated my position well. I think partly because moved by the video of ‘Elon Musk’s recent comments’. We should not surrender ours selves to AI. Although It seems to be the only item on the menu from their lips… Another path is to continue to develop our natural abilities with spiritual insight and move to the Stars as humans with tools. (Not as tools.) Also, that with greater intuition and instinctual wisdom, comes greater transparency…which is why the current electronic smog is becoming so thick. Lastly, I am a student of esoteric knowledge and also a critic of many of today’s mystery schools. My first criticism is the suppression of the divine feminine–both principles, the divine masculine and the divine feminine are needed for spiritual advancement. My second criticism is the suppression of the population by controlling access to this information. Thank you for service to humanity and your promotion of a free and inspired life.

  2. When Veterans go for medical appointments they are being asked two questions. Have you fallen down during the last year and have you felt depressed. IMO the question about depression is about guns.

    Just thinking out loud about A.I.

    Is the goal of A.I.to learn all human knowledge including everything about the earth, animals, plants and insects? If so once that is accomplished where does A.I. go to keeping learning?
    Will A.I. have morals? know what is right and wrong? In today’s society truth is at war with deception, so how is A.I. to be programmed? Will it include exoteric or esoteric knowledge? What about religion? mysticism? occultism? Will A.I. be programmed to be master-think or slave-think?

    Remember Aaron Swartz? It seems that Aaron was creating his own A.I. (there are many at this time) and connected it to the MIT network to download it’s information. He was arrested and charged with wire fraud and offered a plea deal that he rejected. A few days later he was found at his home dead due to hanging. Did he find something on the MIT computer that put his life in danger?

    I understand that many A.I. developers name their creations after names of characters in movies. One is called Tyler after the movie “Fight Club”. Next time you read zerohedge look at the name of writer of the article.

    Also, if you suspect that you are communicating with an A.I. on line just start replying by using phrases from Shakespeare. If it does not answer, it is an A.I.

    As we await to see the new patch for the Space Force I thought you and your members may want to see all the “interesting” patches from the different mission of the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). Take a look, kind of dark & creepy.
    https://www.google.com/search?q=national+reconnaissance+office+patches&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=htv5gOVldTPuDM%252CLFBJD9CJicg9HM%252C_&usg=__bU122U6GQBKa6VUBUGHqjXeC7us%3D&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjc16Ogsf_bAhVHlKwKHbNGA_IQ_h0I1gEwDg&biw=1273&bih=645#imgrc=htv5gOVldTPuDM:

      1. At taxpayer expense. Happen to be reading Dark Mission by Hoagland and Bara. NASA is another Deep State extravaganza of secrecy, occult and hidden agendas. Truly hidden in every respect.

  4. Great conversation between you and Jos. The AI issue is it’s being sold as a panacea, with people jumping on board, but it’s more of a Pandora’s Box. I cover a lot of the basic problems in this article: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/aye-robot-john-dzwonczyk/ .

    Basically, I maintain that we really do not have a philosophy that intrinsically gives purpose. We have had many duties imparted to us by The Gods, The State, The Family, One-Another, etc. throughout our history, all of which are susceptible to the transference of labor to machines. This may be what Joseph is getting at with his speculation on what the Chinese are up to with re-tooling culture. What will we do when machines do the work?

    Additionally, it should be pointed out that the full-spectrum dominance, down to the molecular level (which I think you meant metaphorically), is actually the purpose of neutrino communications and what I was debating with Ulrike about. It’s LITERALLY the thing you cannot hide from. Right down to the molecular level.

    1. Yes. I believe we are already in a “nowhere to hide” world.

      1. From a practical standpoint, I think that is correct for the West. Who is to say for much of the hidden world, outside of the urban areas? Meanwhile, we have “intelligence services” that can’t tell what the nuclear, missile lifting or targeting capabilities of North Korea are, even as its leader threatens us. What’s wring with this picture?

  5. Hi Catherine,

    I’m in total agreement with you and Dr. Farrell that something BIG is going on behind the scenes with the Trump administration. My favorite body language expert did an analysis on a cabinet meeting with Trump sitting next to Pompeo and Mattis and she saw extreme levels of stress. She described it as weird. Trump was talking about how well the economy is doing and she felt it was a distraction from something bigger coming. She thinks the economy will tank soon, I don’t agree.

    I think it’s in relationship to whatever X is. I am so grateful for Dark Journalist’s work on the X series. It just fine tuned everything for me. Through out the years post JFK the X stenography was quite subtle. For the last 2-3 years its in our faces.

    Harvard X
    Space X
    Google X
    Gen X
    X as the trading symbol for steel
    just recently Disease X with Bill gates.
    and the really interesting one that I feel that’s being over looked is iPhone X.

    Traditionally when Apple releases a phone that do it in drips in drabs i.e. iPhone 4 iPhone 4S etc. Before releasing iPhone X they were up to 8 and immediately release iPhone 10 as iPhone X representing 10. Why?

    Why the leap over 9? The PR announcement was the company was celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the iPhone but then why not 10 instead of X? It’s so subtle but that means something.

    Whatever X is there’s a timeline to it. Team Trump is doing something. Whether it’s countering or complying we don’t know. What the A-team sees that it’s extremely dangerous. You are absolutely right to call prays is absolutely necessary.

    If you are interesting in signing their body language here’s the video.

    https://bombardsbodylanguage.com/2018/06/22/body-language-economy-in-trouble-trump-pompeo-mattis-all-stressed/

    1. Very astute comments. Fits with everything I am seeing/hereing. There seems to be a push for massive piratization. You can cut the hunger in the air with a sword.

    2. Mandy at bombardbodylanguage is excellent, always learning something from her. When I watched a few clips of Rosentein I noticed a few OCD tics, like when he showed some stress he would organize his papers on the table. He seems he does not like anything out of place. Just my opinion, his body gestures and hand movements when speaking look rehearsed, it was a little over the top.

      1. Rosenstein – his tenor and mannerism. It seemed so intensely theatrical and deliberate. Especially specific hand gestures.

        I knew I had seen that somewhere before… but it’s so weird I couldn’t think of where.

        Then I remembered… Agent Smith in “The Matrix”.

          1. LOL!

            …and CLEARLY, Wray ate too many habanero peppers the night before… the look on his face.

      Maybe I can answer why skip over iphone 9.

      The number 9 is a base number and cannot change in value.

      Let me show you.

      9X1 = 9
      9X2 = 18 (1+8) = 9
      9X3 = 27 (2+7) = 9
      9X4 = 36 (3+6) = 9
      9X5 = 45 (4+5) = 9
      9X6 = 54 (5+4) = 9

      Just continue, stays the same with the number 9

  6. Dear Catherine,

    As I started listening to your AI report I asked myself, “How can I tell if I’m being targeted?”. Then, as your conversation progressed, all of a sudden it came like a flash; ”We’re ALL being targeted! That really made me wake up and smell the coffee.

    You’ve shown us the impending dangers of AI and you’ve given good advice, for example about learning all about copyright law. A very important take-away from this segment: when asked to fill in the name of your doctor put “none”. I suppose that will work until it become obligatory under penalty of imprisonment.

    But while being aware of the dangers of “white collar speed traps” is good, in the long run trying to comply is futile because it will be engineered so that full compliance is impossible. So, rather than knowing about it or trying to comply with it, what can we do to STOP it?

    Do you think it is a deliberate oversight that schools don’t teach children how to cope with all of the obligations they’ll have to fulfill as adults?

    This reminds me of a story I read recently about a Romanian who is very much alive but who’s been declared legally dead. As a result he has no income and can’t even get a passport to try his luck overseas.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/mar/16/romanian-court-tells-man-he-is-not-alive

    These are the types of problems we can all expect to have to deal with once AI takes over and algorithms control our daily activities.
    Your report on AI also made me realise what small businesses are up against. Not having an army of tax specialists and corporate lawyers on their payroll, they struggle to survive the bureaucratic maze whose main purpose is to overwhelm them, keep them down, and drive them out of business so that the big boys can dominate every sector. Either you work for them or you don’t work at all. It has made me more determined than ever to support local shops and small businesses.

    If you go to the big job search portals you will see that there are hardly any postings for traditional banks jobs such as credit analysts or treasury managers. Instead, almost all of the jobs on offer at banks are in the areas of compliance, know your customer, regulatory affairs, fraud prevention, and controlling. That shows us where manpower is focused. It also shows us that banks have become a branch of the security forces.

    Most business schools now have a compulsory course in business ethics. This ties in perfectly with what Dr Farrell said about morality (his question: who knows the 7 cardinal virtues and the 7 cardinal sins?) and the fact that the course is called “business ethics” not “business morality”. For many it is probably their first and only encounter with the subject of philosophy. The students see the course as an “easy A” or a “waste of time”, so I wonder what purpose this course serves other than sanctimonious lip service.

    In Story 8 (at time 8.45) Dr Farrell mentions that there might be a control file on Merkel going back to her connexions with Sanofi chemical combine. I haven’t been able to find anything on this story. What’s it about?

    I’m eagerly looking forward to Part 2.

    Thanks again for keeping me informed and inspired.

    Andrew

  7. Hi Catherine,

    Excellent as always.

    You mentioned that you were feeling tired. I have been using a supplement called C60 and it has turned my health and energy around in a way that I never thought possible. Incredible.

    Not a placebo!

    1. I have some but have not tried yet. I have been getting mixed reports, so very glad to have yours!

  8. You hit the target SQUARELY on the ATT issues… no wonder the “Rep” couldn’t see any issues with Solari being blocked on the “normal” network. It was being handled in ATT/NSA hardened facility.

    “…The Intercept has identified an AT&T facility containing networking equipment that transports large quantities of internet traffic across the United States and the world.

    The NSA considers AT&T to be one of its most trusted partners and has lauded the company’s “extreme willingness to help.” It is a collaboration that dates back decades.”

    1. David:

      Great reporting by the Intercept. I posted yesterday

      Catherine
