  1. What are your suggestions for where we should put our capital if we take it out of the bank? Thanks!

    1. Christina:

      Last night on Money & Markets, I recommend you take a look at a piece I wrote in 2016 – Where to Stash Your Cash https://library.solari.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/Solari_1st_Q_Wrap-56-pages-spreads.pdf

      The one caveat was I noted that IMO to value of the federal credit had deteriorated significantly since 2016. I describe that in Caveat Emptor:

      https://home.solari.com/caveat-emptor-why-investors-need-to-do-due-diligence-on-u-s-treasury-and-related-securities/

      I also get reports that the performance of FDIC is deteriorating. The feds have the power to print whatever they need to deal whatever is going on. The challenge for us then will be the price of good and household goods – and of course things done to assert control – including the possibility of cutting off the Internet, electricity etc. That is why investing in capacity to DIY or provide basic provision is sensible. Bottom line, make sure you are choosing a good bank that is well capitalized.

      1. Catherine, don’t they shoot themselves in the foot if they cut Electricity or the internet? Actually, if you cut electricity you also cut the Internet. But doesn’t that take away their power to spy on us via electronic means? No way people adhere to this social distancing nonsense if we lose our ability to connect on line. And then how will they know what we are all talking about? Food would spoil fast and disease would spread, people would die in hospitals by the millions fast as they depend only on generators. Seems like that would be a true apocalyptic last result scenario. But maybe I’m missing something?

        I suppose we should all be trying to get a generator – but then have to have enough gas to make sure you can run it.
        As a possible scenario, what percentage would you place on this? 5%?

  2. I’d like to share this video coming out of Australia. There is only one issue I have with it and that’s Indonesia is already in lock down, which it isn’t just yet. This Covid-19 madness is truly super dangerous.

  3. Catherine and everybody, An md I didn’t know about until this week has posted a couple of interviews which I think would be interesting to everyone. Go to *sigh* youtube and search for Andrew Kaufman’s channel. Please, as many as possible should save these vids. anyway, Catherine, the link I’m posting here is where he’s talking about what appears to be highly engineered nano-metal particles in 40 vaccines. I think you mentioned this before? Anyway, he is very well spoken, interesting and destined for suicideTM so go right away and watch.

  4. Is this the law (or code) that allows the U.S. Government, Agencies or contractors to experiment on the U.S. Population without their knowledge/consent? Or is there more?
    https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/50/1520a
    50 U.S. Code § 1520a. Restrictions on use of human subjects for testing of chemical or biological agents
    Thanks!

    1. I don’t know. My experience is the government has been doing nonconsensual experimentation on citizens with biological, chemical, digital and electromagnetic agents since I can remember.

  5. Lugols iodine. Nasal lavage with that added (or even just saline); keep your nasal passages clean right now—don’t give viruses the chance to hang out and get in.

    I think it’s just really important not to get sick with anything right now, full stop. And those things will help you. Be careful with your steps; when cutting veggies. Just stay out of the system.

    1. For those of you who have not listed to Brigittes recent interviews on both iodine and breathing exercises, highly recommended. Very inexpensive and effective.

  6. Here’s what’s a bit tricky on this—

    You don’t want too much inflammation in your body. But you don’t want too little, either.

    Inflammation is an extremely important aspect of how t the immune system functions. So—the body sends highly corrosive substances to a site of injection or injury.

    Our cells can shield themselves from it in real time, by creating or using antioxidants. Pathogens can’t do this.

    The problems begin when the cells run out of the raw materials needed to do this (vitamin C is a crucial one). OR—when the cytokine storm hits.

    Most Americans don’t—but you CAN have too little inflammation, and it can make you susceptible to infections because so much of the inflammatory bullets are getting mopped up by the antioxidants.

    Omg, I’m trying to type this all out on a phone and I think it’s too much….

    Earlier this week—I almost reflexively took a supplement I often take that’s highly anti-inflammatory—and instinctively stopped myself. I was in an office environment—and didn’t feel it was the right time to significantly lower my body’s oxidant levels.

    Ok—here’s my recommendation

  7. The suggestions in the article are good ones.

    The basic ER doc protocol to not get sick during flu season is 500 mg vitamin C every hour to bowel tolerance. Until it gives you the runs, basically.

    More is not more—500 mg is max oral dose you can absorb at a time; and once you’ve reached bowel tolerance—any more that goes into the system is being processed as waste. Just don’t.

    Melatonin is very interesting and I’m only beginning to learn about the hormone aspect of it beyond just sleep. If you’re not already taking it—you probably should be. The high doses are interesting. Would we sleep all day?? 🙂

    In a nutshell: melatonin is antinflammatory to very specific types of inflammation.

    Those types of inflammation are associated with cardiovascular disease

    Those types of inflammation are also associated with cytokine storm.

    That type of inflammation is happening in CVID; and not only is it causing ARDS (seem like an atypical ards—but whatever) AND it’s also injuring heart tissue.

    Therefore, if you can load your body up with the antioxidants that are particularly effective in quenching those free-radicals (inflammation = free radicals aka “oxidants”); then you can reduce your susceptibility to ended up in critical condition if you catch CVID.

  8. Just wanted to share a page someone pointed out to me today. NOTE: Information ALWAYS requires our discernment, and if we are going to take action on it, focused, reasoned consideration.

    Other Solari members with science backgrounds are in a better position to weigh in on this… it’s pretty long, and pretty detailed.

    Those of us who remember the H1N1 and SARS virus, remember it is typically the over-reaction of people’s immune response that caused them to succumb to SARS. The inflammatory response, the “cytokine storm” overwhelms the respiratory system’s capacity to deal with the metabolic processes of mounting a defense against the virus leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

    Anyway… this is a very interesting piece. Would be interested to hear the comments of our Solari member doctors and biology majors.

    https://www.evolutamente.it/covid-19-pneumonia-inflammasomes-the-melatonin-connection/?fbclid=IwAR1rUd163nsilioyg2CicPZSPpDezeHh7ajsDmRs8tCcxzfhGVncv93Qwp8

    1. Most of what that article mentions is going to be covered in people who have good nutrition.
      But Most people these days are walking around with subclinical vitamin and mineral deficiencies. That’s the foundation to build on before getting fancy with high dose melatonin, etc.

      Supplementing with selenium for immune function can be very powerful—but you have to be CAREFUL because you can easily cause a zinc deficiency. The levels need to be balanced. It can be done but isn’t for the novice.

      The most meaningful thing you can do right now is to Build up your body’s vitamin and mineral stores. An excellent multivitamin—there are really only a handful of multis that aren’t complete trash.

      A multi-mineral will have zinc and selenium in an appropriate ratio and get your body topped off on what it need to function optimally.

      A multi mineral supplement WITHOUT iron. If you need the iron; get it elsewhere—it’s easy to overdo the iron, it’s toxic when you have too much; and that needs to be separate.

      B12. Methyl Or hydroxo cobalamin. If it’s cyanocobalamin, it’s trash.

      Hundreds of millions are walking around with clinical/subclinical b12 deficiency. If you get that EXCELLENT multi—MAYBE it will have enough? but probably not.

      Look down at your fingernails. How are you nail moons? If they’re low or Missing—you’d better get on the good B12 ASAP.

      Yes to the vitamin c. It cures a multitude of things and prevents illness, it’s cheap, and unlike selenium—almost foolproof.

      Most people are magnesium deficient. Magnesium oxide is what you’re likely to find at the drugstore. It’s trash. Don’t eat it. Magnesium citrate, glycinate are good—there are a few other forms that are good. Getting into your body through your skin is legit and effective—epsom salt soaks—body or just feet; the magnesium spray (it works but can really burn, ironically, the more you need it).

      Melatonin is fantastic. I take it most nights and notice when I don’t. I seem to wake more refreshed when I’ve had it.

      There are also a bunch of things on the actively antiviral side; but before getting fancy—get the fundamentals in—and unfortunately these days—even that actually requires getting pretty fancy

      1. Any thoughts on which are some of the better multivitamin. I switched several months ago to Mercola’s brand and am struggling with taking that many big pills a day.

        1. Catherine- –

          I use Multi vitamaxx from Organixx, if you buy 6 at a time you get a substantial discount. I also love their digestive enzymes. They are the best in my opinion. Their Idodine and essential oils are good too

          http://Www.organixx.com

  9. I thought I heard the Treasury Secretary today say money given to small businesses would be secured by collateral. Not sure if they are doing this with airlines, hotels, cruise industry also (also heard the cruise companies mostly based in other countries and don’t pay US Taxes so not sure why US is bailing them out). Anyway – are they requiring collateral and will take the assets – if the small business doesn’t pay back Fed Gvt – from a shut down caused by Fed Gvt using tax dollars to create bio weapons to begin with? Is this another way to take assets?

  10. Well,.. I laughed at the “toilet paper” thing until I had to go to 5 stores to get any paper goods, and then when they brought the cartons out, and everyone started fighting over paper towels and wipes; I realized that this was not going to go away in the Palm Springs-La Quinta area. They have shut down art shows, plays, the Tram, theaters, casino performances, and if you can believe it..houses of worship have bought into this and are shutting down for a month! A preview of socialism starting; and it is not pretty. People are stocking up on whatever they can find, and many of the tourists are stranded here that came out for the large tennis event that was cancelled 4 days before. One city lost $450 million dollars in revenue out here. I actually saw 2 men fighting over supplies early this morning in a Wallmart parking lot! Valuable lessons have been learned..I never again will run out of anything related to hygiene again. It will be a mission-ha-ha!
    It is good to hear John Rappoport again as a reporter of the truth. While I love his poetry and his fabulous musings; it is his commentary on current subjects that I find so valuable…….stay well, Catherine.

    1. I asked my team to start stock piling ever more paper goods and toilet paper in January. You always want a large inventory of anything that is not perishable and which you will use. You have the option of using it to trade for things which are perishable. Jon has really nailed the lies on health care across the board – it has taken him many investigative pieces and books for many decades to get to the bottom of it. But he has. Amazing man, amazing resource for us all.

  11. The fog of war has been mentioned a number of times in these pages lately. We all have to recognize that it’s there and avoid striking at phantoms. That means no hasty actions, more honing blades, girding loins and listening carefully. The soldiers who jump up and act at the wrong time are easily picked off. Cool heads will prevail. All that has changed is what we’re being told. It is well to imprint the following image in our minds 危机. This is Weiji, or ‘crisis.’ It is a combination of ‘danger’ and ‘opportunity.’ The problem and the solution have similar origins.

    1. Excellent advice. Every day seek your “coronavirus plandemic opportunity” – it is always there.

      1. I am always reminded of the Baron de Rothschild maxim “buy when blood is running in the streets.” It’s much too early yet, thus the one to follow currently is attributed to Oliver Cromwell, “Put your trust in God, my boys, and keep your powder dry.”

        PS, I like your Coronavirus PLANNEDemic idea. Seems like all evidence points to that.

  12. Another point of affect… it would be VERY difficult to get a Democrat with socialist aspirations into the office of President, so long as you have a cohort of elderly/boomers… that REMEMBER what socialism/communism has wrought in the last 120 years.

    If you could only figure out a way to keep all those “oldsters” away from the polls, eh?

    1. Right now, the most dangerous cohort politically is the 60+ crowd.

      1. Relative to the population, they have better math skills. If you tell them there is no money in their pension fund, they can compute that there is a significant lie or material omission involved.
      2. They have historical knowledge.
      3. They have skills and experience
      4. They are less responsible for child raising or household budget than the next 2 generations down – they have some time to act
      5. They share a sense of “We” – a covenant for a human and lawful society.
      6. They have capital and resources – the pump and dumps have not managed to quite wipe them out.
      7. Their health is being pounded by environmental toxins, bad food and entrainment – if they can beat that and stay off the big pharma treadmill so as to have some energy to do something, they have the capacity to be less risk adverse.
      8. Many feel obligated to leave a better world for their children and grand children.

      Lets hope us 60+ turn off any remaining TVs, turn off our smart phones, throw Alexa and Nest in the trash and decide to get really feisty about having some fun leading forward.

      1. “…and decide to get really feisty about having some fun leading forward.”

        This is the attitude you ALWAYS seem to carry forward, that caused me to love and admire you and your work… darn… getting close to 20 years ago now.

        God bless you, milady! <3

  13. Hi Catherine, what do you think about taking a collection to resurrect “community wizard”? We could implement a pilot program in a county with a constitutional Sheriff to try and protect the operation. I know the computer programming would take a lot of money. We need a successful and viable model to show other counties how to get away from the “Private International central banker” parasites and turn the red button green.
    Your courage is inspiring, thank you, Rick

    1. I have tried this several times and got hacked into the ground on it. The best way to do this is not centralized – and indeed very paperful – otherwise you are just feeding the NSA et all. One way to consider this is to have a live Solari Report every so often to support Community Wizards – people who want to make out the ecosystem in their places and use the information to take action. That lots of granular efforts can percolate. Would be good to have some open source developers to help make tools that everyone could use.

  15. I just watched local Las Vegas nightly news. I’m dying laughing. Two local news anchors had on two people from the Chamber of commerce and Las Vegas Convention and Tourist Center. The news anchors were questioning why Las Vegas has not done more regarding Corona Virus as other cities have been doing. After all, we have over 375,000 tourists from all over the world here on any given day with an average of 107,000 new tourists arriving daily. I kid you not, they both explained that the reason they have not canceled any large conventions (one is scheduled in May to bring in over 300,000 people) is because Governor Sisolek and the southern Nevada Health Department have both assured them that we are low risk and once the temperature rises to 80 the virus cannot survive so we are in the clear then anyway. They noted that several buffets and nightclubs have closed and the way they said it was almost has if admitting it was a token gesture so we didn’t look like we weren’t doing anything at all here in Las Vegas. Not one mention of the casinos, as in are they cleaning them and wiping them down more frequently, are they taking extra precautions etc….

    They just kept harping on May 1st and that Las Vegas is low risk per the Health Dept. Is Mr Global unwilling to slow the cash into Area 51 black projects? It truly is business as usual here. Other than being short paper products and hand sanitizer in stores ( I guess people need to feel like they are doing something) its just as crowed as it ever is in most places and I hear no talk from anyone here on self isolating – in fact many people here think its all an over reaction. It could just be me and maybe I’m missing something – or perhaps it will get worse later, but I’m hearing this May 1st date being floated out there in the sports world too…Maybe Trump was right when he said it will all be over by end of April.

    Catherine you mentioned all the different official narratives that are breaking down, is it possible this narrative might break down too?

    1. If Nevada is confident it will not be a target – my guess is that their confidence comes from more than an expectation of sunshine. This is like 30,000 troops landing in Europe with no precautions. Looks to me like there is a covert war underway and Nevada thinks they will not be hit/or will be protected. Important to watch all the people and places that are protected and free of the plandemic hysteria. I am getting similar reports from Pennsyslvania.

  16. Catherine,

    I went to an Anthroposophical meeting tonight. The lecture was on calling in angels. It was a great way to spend an evening rather than listening about corona.

    During the break, I discussed an article I came across on Swiss scientists found a method to transform human stress into energy…

    https://interestingengineering.com/scientists-can-now-transform-stress-into-electricity

    Then someone shared this with me:

    Dear Friends,
    Through a colleague I became aware recently of the work of the scientist Martin Pall who postulates that all viral epidemics of the last 100 years or so (including the pandemic influenza outbreak of 1918) were preceded by a sudden increase in electrification -whether in the form of introduction of radar back in 1918 or recently the enormously powerful 5G networks. The information on his work is available online.
    Importantly for us here, Rudolf Steiner explains that electricity is a form of materialized, condensed and “fallen” light!
    Since the etheric body is essentially a “light body” it is not surprising that shocking the etheric world with corrupt light would weaken it and enable organisms like viruses to overwhelm this body-if other appropriate biological conditions are present.
    For this reason, we have started using the Lightroot Comp product from True Botanica as a support for these etheric forces. The reason is as follows: Rudolf Steiner explains that the plant dioscorea batatas, the wild yam, originally coming from China(!) is potentially the only plant that can store original light ether in its roots. Dioscorea is the main ingredient in the Lightroot Comp.
    We obtain a biodynamic form of dioscorea from Europe and hope that using it daily can help in the direction of restoring the light ether metabolism. We have used it with good success for other conditions up to now.
    Since the etheric body is going through three distinct phases each day, we recommend 1 capsule morning, midday and evening.
    We will send more information on other remedies to help with viral infections soon.
    Wishing all great Health,
    For the True Botanica Team,
    Ross Rentea MD

    Not to promote what they are offering I just thought the subject was fascinating.

    Najat

    1. Yes, very fascinating. I can not wait to see and hear Thomas on what Steiner says about such times.

      1. Very much look forward to your next interview with Thomas, I learn so much from them and they help bring me back to coherence. I hope you don’t have any issue getting to Switzerland Monday!

  17. It feels very much like the week after nine one one when there were no flights. Eerie. There have only been 2 military cargo jets passing over today. It also feels like the week before a cat 5 hurricane hits. Eerie again.

  18. Catherine,

    The sky is falling, the sky is falling… Ahahahaha…..

    The hysterics! Oye Vey!

    I’m telling my anti-Trump family members if you don’t trust Trump don’t take the vaccines.

    I’m hoping verse psychology works.

  19. The Virus. The PERFECT scapegoat of all time. It completely stops mass protests in the streets as people lose 50-80% of their retirement and mass unemployment. Then you roll in the green new deal. Brilliant.

    2. “MOMMY, MOMMY, THE VIRUS MADE ME DO IT.” One up from “MOMMY, MOMMY, THE ALIENS MADE ME DO IT.” No doubt keeping the lies going and the red button being pushed has become too much for middle management.

  20. This really is beginning to seem like the most brilliant coup de gras of all time. In Home Depot last night, 1 cashier, everything else self-checkout. This is a diabolically brilliant way to get a majority of people to not only accept mass automation/replacing humans with robots–but to get them to THANK YOU for rolling it out.

    With the thousands upon thousands up upcoming service sector layoffs; I am almost certain many of their jobs won’t be there when they return.

    It seems as though TPTB have decided to rip the bandaid rather than slowly boil the frog.

    Divine intelligence. This is going to be very painful. I have a deep abiding hope and faith that no matter how bad it gets, this is a necessary bringing to a head the poison of whatever these dark forces are to be lanced and drained. At the end of the day, there are billions more of us than them—and each of us has the divine intelligence flowing and working through us.

  21. The face mask issue is really interesting because it’s a necessity & an essential item in Asia, while the US media + authorities say they don’t help. Since end Jan. there has been a silent worldwide grab for masks to the point where the average person can no longer get them at the pharmacy and they are no longer being shipped out from producer countries like China, S. Korea, Taiwan. This is from conversations with friends in Finland, Australia, US, throughout Asia. There is a huge social media black market for shipments from India, Indonesia, Africa. So you see EVERYONE in China, most of all front line people like soldiers, doctors, airport workers etc., wearing surgical masks.

    Then you see the National Guard in NY and like this article where US troops are deploying to EU without being given masks. Why the disparity?

    Actually there is a massive shortage of face masks in the world due the outbreak in China. Since 1.5 months ago, production has been for the China domestic market and the essentials for dealing with the virus are not being exported. It means these things are not coming back in large supply any time soon.

    I think they absolutely do help if you are in a crowd within a city where there is an epidemic situation. Why else would health care workers etc. use them, if they didn’t work? The issue isn’t effectiveness, it’s supply.

    The ‘interesting’ part is, what other essential items – medicines, health care sanitation items – will be in short supply in the coming weeks for medical systems all over the world? Does the local hospital only have enough materials cached, enough for 2-3 weeks? How about pharmaceuticals, given that the world is so dependent on outsourced production? And how much of that 8.5 billion USD package was used to help out with these shortages? /guessing zero – it’s not as exciting as vaccine research/.

    I am guessing while people erroneously stockpile water and toilet paper /the US has plenty of both/, you will see shortages of medical items which may be a much bigger deal in preventing infection for health care workers or providing urgent care to the very ill. And once the dust settles, the pharmaceutical / medical supply chains will be one of the first to be pulled back from Asia and more regionalized.

    Stay safe Catherine, it sounds like you are in a great place!

  22. Wow! New Orleans mayor has cancelled St. Patty day parades and other events. That is huge. St. Patty parades are just as popular as Mardi Gras. With the oil price tanking and tourism taking a hit Louisiana is up a creek without a paddle. My friend in Baton Rouge said the engineering firms in petro-chem sector are cutting work hours to 30/week. I asked him if they told them to stay home and he said “Oh, Hell No!” Haha!

    1. The Houston Rodeo has been cancelled and schools. Insanity and Costco ran out of toilet paper.

      1. Makes you wonder if the oii producers are demanding gold, yen or euros for their shipments.

  24. I hear you’re saying about the level of deaths associated with the flu in relation to COVID-19. But isn’t it more likely that it’s just exponential growth having an elusive quality to it where it starts with singular cases than goes to clusters and then instantly jumps up to hundreds of thousands, millions, even billions of people extremely quickly as that curve goes parabolic upwards? It’s not a linear reality, it’s an exponentially growing reality,,, So it’s always going to seem like there’s lots of headroom when there’s very little time left. Time will tell;-)

    1. That is exactly what was said in 2004, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018 and again now in 2020. Yes, it could go up an exponential curve. Same as the annual flu. I think the more likely explanation is people pissed off about being targeted by man made stuff, are threatening to send back other man made stuff. No trust among thieves.

        Iranian, Russian, Chinese Media Push COVID-19 ‘Bioweapon’
        I’m just putting this third article here so that we can add Russia to the category of people talking about it as a ‘Bioweapon’…

          1. Markets have come down hard and fast- because corrections have not been permitted. That said there are a lot of real assets represented and companies that will endure. So I think the chances of a “dump and pump” are reasonable here. When its over, will it turn out to be a bear or a correction – two hard to say. Right now Mr. Global’s first concern is control and the war is on – so lots of collateral damage.

  25. Hi Catherine,

    Wondering if you might be able to shed some light on the relationship between the “pandemic bonds” which were due in July, and the WHO declaring a pandemic. Qui bono – who benefits?

    Hope you are doing well! Very much looking forward to Money and Markets! Thank you so much for all that you and the Solari Team do!

    1. On my list to look into it Not clear yet who owns them – need to see a prospectus.

  26. Dear Catherine

    In his recent interview at time 11:58

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNDuS7eSJ48

    Rob Kirby supports your 95% suspicion that it’s bio-warfare. Rob says, “If you pay attention to the likes of Francis Boyle who was the architect of the bio-weapons treaty adopted by America back in the 80s and subsequently adopted by the United Nations as a global treaty, he has produced and shown documentation that the coronavirus … bears the scars of being worked on in a bio lab. Apparently geneticists and epidemiologists with with the chops to know better can look at this thing and they can tell that it was created by man. And the genesis of this according to Boyle, and he says he’s got the documentation to prove it, goes back a few years.

    The the virus was created in Fort Detrick, Maryland. It was transferred to University of North Carolina and the University of North Carolina sold it to the Chinese in 2015, and there’s very good documentation to say that this is exactly what happened. What the Chinese did with it after they had it in the confines of their bio weapons level 4 lab in Wu Han and whether it was released by accident or on purpose is open for debate, but the genesis of it is not open for debate.

    We know where where its roots are and where it came from. The genesis was Fort Dietrich to the University of North Carolina, sold to the Chinese, and the Chinese worked with it in their lab in Wu Han and and if I recall the the bio level 4 lab in Wu Han was run by very highly acclaimed professor from Harvard who ran the bio lab 4 in Wu Han for the Chinese in Wuh Han.”

    This is absolutely shocking. Some people wake up and then go drive a bus, some get up and then go sell shoes and then there are others who get up and develop deadly viruses and then sell them. And I am sure I know which of them earns more money. It’s appalling.

    What kind of society is it that makes and sells viruses to destroy humanity like a new flavoured soft drink or new brand of snack food? This is truly perverse.

    And who is doing this? It’s not the evil Russians. It’s not the evil Iranians. It’s not the evil Muslims. No, it’s the true blue US military and esteemed academic institutions. How much sicker can our society get?

  27. I woke up in the middle of the night and realized.

    This was won of the best pulled off heist in the history of the world.

    Trump and his small army of financial oligarchs did one of the biggest pump and dumb of all time. He leads millions, and trillion of wealth to the slaughter.

    Republican Economic Shock Doctrine.
    DEPRESSION.

    The game is up everything is returning to fair value.

    I bet the protest in the coming months will make hong kong and yellow vest look like a sunday picnic

    1. We are now seeing a repeat of 2008. Billions were given to the banking cartel only now they’re being giving to the pharma/health cartel. As Mark Twain, “History doesn’t repeat itself but it often rhymes.”

      1. Not Sure what your talking about.

        They’re bailing out Airline oligopolies, cruise, casino. Potentionally shale, but that will likly be bought by the big player exxon/chev

        1. Add the big banks and their derivative counterpartys to the list. Pru/Lincoln/4 horseman..etc

  28. I have not been so full of anticipation for this coming Money and Market.
    I hope, Catherine, you like Europe if you are stuck here. If you have a lot of EU subscribers you can visit them all. Jokes aside I wish you well in those troubled times.

    1. Alexandra:

      Stavoren is wonderful – quite happy here. Not sure about what to do with my trip to Switzerland on Monday!

      Catherine

  29. I have never felt more anxious and waiting for any Money and Market as this coming one.

    Tonight; the travel ban from US to Europe. I’m wondering if I should try to get on a plane to France before the cutoff. (I have a place to stay there 3 hours from Spain).

    It would take everything as I would have to call out at work, get my dogs vet visit and USDA papers (only possible because I am near the regional office) and get on a plane before midnight.

    If I knew it was the right thing I would do it. But I don’t know and there’s no time.

    Catherine, you’re presumably still in Europe. Will you just stay?

    1. I’m so confused— is it a ban TO Europe, from Europe, or both? I haven’t been able to find any official government guidelines on this.

      Ugh. Fog of war?

    2. I am not scheduled to return until 4/24. If they extend the ban, I will stay until I can return. We am scheduled for numerous events in May and June that I would hope to meet. My guess is this is a prototype – so it will ease over the summer. To the extent they need to keep the bans going to manage inflation and the trade deficit and slam the oil price to keep the dollar liquid, it could extend.

    1. Is it working now? Just saw a message from our IT team to developer about fixing issues for returning customer.

    1. Impossible to tell until we see who is eligible for a delay. My advice is to make sure to file and pay by April 15 – of if you file an extension make sure your FBAR/FACTA filing is done.

  32. Catherine, I know she’s not one of your favorites, but “Amazing Polly” has done a pretty fair job of linking what is pretty clearly a Fear Op in the form of Coronavirus to something in 2018 known as “Event 201” and its globalist-sponsored conference. Think Bill and Melinda Gates, World Bank, Center for Disease Control, World Health Organization and other high-end thought-shapers in attendance recognizing that it is high time to give “some religion” to the masses who’ve been drifting away from the clearly manufactured official reality of Fake News and literally co-opt faith-based organizations in the effort. See https://youtu.be/IRJpP83MqNs

    1. I think it is bigger than that. Their goal is a global digital currency and the narrative they were using to get there was breaking down, not working. I will explain more in this week’s Money & Markets. The vaccines are to take the IOT the last inch. Spend some time at the website of Lieber Research – the professor from Harvard who was working with the Wuhan lab. One of the quotes from his website that I am using in State of Our Currency section called Financial Transhumanism and the IOT Last Inch:

      “We are focusing on a novel approach for integrating electronics within the brain and other areas of the nervous system, which involves non-invasive syringe delivery of neural network-like mesh electronics into targeted distinct brain regions.” ~ Lieber Research Group, run by Dr. Charles Lieber, Harvard professor and leader in brain machine interface arrested by the Department of Justice in the early weeks of the corona virus “epidemic” https://cml.harvard.edu

      Not surprising, Amazon is working on a vaccine. Why should they standby while Microsoft gets everyone linked up to the Microsoft Cloud?

    2. John,

      As Catherine always says, follow the money. Amazing Polly brought to my attention the World Bank’s $500 million pandemic bond issue to support a pandemic emergency financing facility:

      https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2017/06/28/world-bank-launches-first-ever-pandemic-bonds-to-support-500-million-pandemic-emergency-financing-facility

      I wonder if locking us all up in forced mass quarantines and thereby preventing us from normal personal interaction and right of assembly ties in with what Catherine discussed in her interview with Marie McDonnell about triggering mortgage defaults.

      Could it be that this is also all a part of the big plan to scoop up all the assets while we’re stuck immobilized at home?

      1. Andrew, it’s a good maxim. But it has limitations, as Catherine herself acknowledges. That’s why we don’t know where “The $21 Trillion” is or who has it and for what purpose it is deployed or hoarded. The trail ends without a trace. So, we try to surround as much as we can see and hope to guess at the rest.

  33. ‘LOCK STEP’- Rockafeller Foundation 2010

    Whatever has occurred inside China at this point it is almost impossible to say owing to conflicting reactions of the Beijing authorities and several changes in ways of counting COVID-19 cases. The question now is how the relevant authorities in the West will use this crisis. Here it is useful to go back to a highly relevant report published a decade ago by the Rockefeller Foundation, one of the world’s leading backers of eugenics, and creators of GMO among other things.

    The report in question has the bland title, “Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development.” It was published in May 2010 in cooperation with the Global Business Network of futurologist Peter Schwartz. The report contains various futurist scenarios developed by Schwartz and company. One scenario carries the intriguing title, “LOCK STEP: A world of tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership, with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback.” Here it gets interesting as in what some term predictive programming.

    The Schwartz scenario states, “In 2012, the pandemic that the world had been anticipating for years finally hit. Unlike 2009’s H1N1, this new influenza strain — originating from wild geese — was extremely virulent and deadly. Even the most pandemic-prepared nations were quickly overwhelmed when the virus streaked around the world, infecting nearly 20 percent of the global population and killing 8 million in just seven months…” He continues, “The pandemic also had a deadly effect on economies: international mobility of both people and goods screeched to a halt, debilitating industries like tourism and breaking global supply chains. Even locally, normally bustling shops and office buildings sat empty for months, devoid of both employees and customers.” This sounds eerily familiar.

    Then the scenario gets very interesting: “During the pandemic, national leaders around the world flexed their authority and imposed airtight rules and restrictions, from the mandatory wearing of face masks to body-temperature checks at the entries to communal spaces like train stations and supermarkets. Even after the pandemic faded, this more authoritarian control and oversight of citizens and their activities stuck and even intensified. In order to protect themselves from the spread of increasingly global problems — from pandemics and transnational terrorism to environmental crises and rising poverty — leaders around the world took a firmer grip on power.”

    A relevant question is whether certain bad actors, and there are some in this world, are opportunistically using the widespread fears around the COVID-19 to advance an agenda of “lock step” top down social control, one that would include stark limits on travel, perhaps replacing of cash by “sanitary” electronic cash, mandatory vaccination even though the long term side effects are not proven safe, unlimited surveillance and the curtailing of personal freedoms such as political protests on the excuse it will allow “identification of people who refuse to be tested or vaccinated,” and countless other restrictions. Much of the Rockefeller 2010 scenario is already evident. Fear is never a good guide to sound reason.

    2. I worked with Peter when I ran Hamilton. That is how I ended up meeting all the folks in strategic planning at the CIA and AT&T. If Rockefeller had Peter working on that and related scenarios, that is a way of getting help and input on planning out an op.

      My understanding is that the OPEC run up in prices in the 70’s was such an Op. Peter was working for a group that helped Shell prepare for the Op. The floated it as one of the scenarios. That allowed them to get all the managers to get prepared. OPEC formed and raised price. Shell skyrocketed in value thanks to a coordinated global response. Their good fortune was credited to the strategic planning groups genius.

      No mention of Western covert operations and trading on insider information.

  34. Hi Catherine,

    Can you kindly elaborate more on what specifically you mean by the following:

    “Given what is happening at the federal government, there is some chance this is final cut and run.”

    What would it look like if the federal government were to cut and run?

    Thank you for all you do!

    1. You would institute FASAB 56, so you could transfer maximum assets and money out while you kept the pension funds buying Treasuries. You may have emptied out the Social Security Trust fund but there is plenty still in the pensions. That is, you would run out the debt capacity, issue as much debt as possible to yourself so you could still control a bankruptcy kind of situation to get whatever assets can not be moved – such as national forests. More in Money & Markets.

  35. “Political destruction of the economy. Serious economic pain underway – keep preparing”

    Portions of it.

    The banks that funded all that Permanian basin fracking pretty much created a financial bazooka of debt/bonds. JP+Goldman wrapped around the permanian basin

    They’re bringing down the house, which is going to breakout an oil war between iran/russia/Saudis(who conviently rush an IPO through to investors). None of these countries want to cut production be left holding the bag as demand decline due to travel bans/cruise/planes/work from home..etc thanks to corona/goverment lockdown.

    Drastically lower oil prices+middle class tax cut+reduce demand via coronia virus=Keep inflation at bay.

    Looking at the biggest DOW losers it’s the dervative boozka wrapped around the old world “guard” or old industries.

    Now ZIRP will come in to fund unlimitd green funny money/industries.

    If people can’t fly, drive, work from home with amazon DOT next to their face. ZIRP can keep zombie corps alive indefiently. Monopoly on the money supply is the most important thing.

    I am sure buffet will come in and buy up the airlines with his warchest than spike the prices further reducing peoples expecations of traveling abroad.

    1. Always feared trump was a patsy pied piper, but its too obvioues now he took ownership of the market and Pence took ownership of the virus. Now they will be hooverized. Like herberthoover.

      He even tweeted a picture of himself playing violin last night “my next peice is called, nothing can stop whats coming” was the caption on the picture.,, in refrence to Nero burning Rome. He deleted it this morning.

      Meanwhite $2.5 TRILLION is wiped off the market from the lemmings. Sad times

      1. Trump is Herbert Hoover, it’s to obvioues now. They had to skip a generation, so no old times could see it coming.

        Protectionism/Isolationism-Killed
        Gun Rights-Killed
        Oil/Gas/Coal-Killed
        Nationalism-Killed

        From 1927 to 1929 the Fed deliberately created then burst a stock bubble using interest rates. Republican President Hoover signed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff act in 1930 to defend American industry, resulting in a trade war that was blamed along with Hoover for the Great Depression that was brought on by an economy bloated with debt and easy money during the Roarin’ Twenties boom. Hoover was blamed and lost re-election to Democrat FDR with his New Deal. Behind all were the actions of the Federal Reserve, the real power. Soon it will be clear if 2020 will be a modern era repeat of the Hoover script, this time with a Democrat whose “New Deal” will likely be green.

      1. The Oil Industry is being taken under. Which is why they are restricting travel,driving,work from home, carnivals,festivals. Saudis/Russia/IRAN are going to pump the market like never seen before. I bet Oil goes below $20.

        Text from Friend “Southwest froze all hiring, AA is about to get fired, and Deloitte Dallas is on a work from for 3 weeks. Shit show in Dallas”.

        1) Either this is the Reset(IMF/UN/NWO). Scariest option as Russia/China could be mere actors under central banks the whole game is a show, we’re already in the NWO.
        2) They are counting on the $120billion extra in cash disposable income from super cheap OIL+Middle class tax cuts+ZIRP(zombie corp) to keep the game going.
        3)Trumps being hoovered? with Green New deal. Willinly? (Wilbur Ross, Neocon cabnient)
        4) Oil factions (russia/trump/Houston/Brexit) taking a massive hit from New money oligarhcs(tech/finance).

        No Idea.

        Many things, But $2.5Trillion wealth transfer and circuit breaks, draconion goverment measures means you should be on alert.

        1. Mr. Global wants the smart grid in place so they can use digital currencies + breakthrough energy + crowd/mind control. They are getting push back and factionalism from all sides. We are in the middle of a major war – more on Money & Markets. Part of this vision is injecting us full of some very strange cocktails. Very gruesome.

  36. I’m watching the action going on in futures tonight. /ZB is ripping past 185 (all time high), CL hit a low of $30, and DXY is down to 95.58. Just 2 weeks ago the dollar was near 100.
    There’s people predicting a temporary credit freeze in the near future. I just don’t see how that can happen, given the tools the fed can use.
    You have always been a voice of reason! That’s one of the reasons I subscribed to the Solari Report. What’s your take on a possible credit freeze?

    1. Unfortunately, Jonathan, anything is possible. We are in the middle of a major economic war. A group of banks are now lobbying for 0% reserve requirement. Which means they want to pull 100% of their capital out. Very bad sign. Given what is happening at the federal government, there is some chance this is final cut and run. But there is also a chance that the central banks risk losing control of inflation and they have to literally shut down the economy to prevent it. My working hypothesis right – subject to much more testing and intelligence – is Mr. Global is out of time to get the new smart grid/digital currencies in – a wide number of narratives have stalled and are not working – and this is a move to assert and maintain control in the worst case. It is what Herman Gref described in his Tass interview.
      More on M&M this week.

    2. Can anyone tell me where the “CDC November 2019 scope of work to build a quarantine grid” link is? Catherine referenced it and said she was posting the link. Thank you!

        1. Rachel:

          I have also posted in the Money & Markets commentary subscriber links. My apologies for not having them up on Friday!

          Catherine
