“What I do and what I dream include thee, as the wine
Must taste of its own grapes.” ~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Sonnet VI

Please join me this Thursday for the 2nd Quarter 2020 Wrap Up: Equity Overview with the quarterly blockbuster from Rambus Chartology. Check out the web presentation here for the quarterly financial charts and Rambus Chartology.
The long overdue major correction in global equity markets came in the 1st Quarter. The recovery in the equity markets during the 2nd Quarter was nothing less than spectacular, and particularly the NASDAQ—up 56% from its 2020 low—with the FANG stocks leading the way.
Two of the best performing assets have been gold and Treasury securities. We are watching a reassertion of the long-term bull market in gold.
Silver is now rebounding as well—up more than 80% from its 2020 low.
A lot of what is happening in the equity markets relates to the global reset. Clearly, the Planet Equity scenario has full support from the central banks. And if new proposed rules for the SEC are approved protecting hedge fund secrecy, expect even more central bank support. It may be worth your while to read the first nine chapters of the Solari Wrap Up on The State of Our Currencies. I will review this material on The Solari Report in the following week.
In the 1st Quarter 2020 Equity Overview, I presented a section called “Don’t Lose Money.” It is just as relevant today. I will not repeat it again this Quarter. If you did not listen last quarter, you may want to check it out. The audio and transcript are available here.
Please join me for the 2nd Quarter 2020 Equity Overview. There is plenty to talk about!
In Let’s Go to the Movies this week, I will review Infinite Potential on the life and work of physicist and consciousness explorer David Bohm.
It’s the last week of the month, so there is no Money & Markets this week. Subscribers can e-mail or post questions and story suggestions for Money & Markets for the following week here.
The Injection Fraud:
These are some great charts by Rambus. It looks like S&P is breaking H&S neckline this week. I am wondering if Rambus has gotten his confirmation yet?
Will take a look.
Gold off to the races, USD clinging to 93 support, crypto custodianship legalized for US banks (acceptable as collateral next?), StarLink going operational shortly, temperature scanners that take your picture in restaurants in Metro Detroit…
Crazy times, indeed.
Please forgive the lengthy post in advance!
To keep my head screwed on straight, I delved into some music I haven’t listened to in a few years now. What I found was nothing short of astounding – this little band called The Protomen makes an ongoing Rock Opera about the 80s video game called MegaMan and both are about a form of Technocratic dictatorship. There’s still a few Millennials wise to the game, it seems, as this is my generation’s 1984.
The band is simply too niche to be predictive programming, so I can only describe what I heard as Jungian synchronicity. The first album is about an eccentric engineer who tries to build a robot to overthrow the Technocracy, only to find that no machine, regardless of its power, can get Man to fight for his own liberation.
The second album is about how the Technocracy came to be, and how one power-hungry Technocrat manipulates his well-meaning partner, through a series of false flags and Beck Brother-style tricks, into creating a dictatorship from the ashes of an old one. Pertinent lyrics to follow…
Both albums can be heard at:

**The Stand – Man or Machine? (Lyrics)**:
Tell me now!
Is there a man among you here?
Is there no one who will stand up and try to fight?
Tell me, Man!
Is there not one in all your ranks,
Is there no one who values Courage over Life?
They looked to me once,
Now they turn to you.
Do you understand now?
Do you see that the truth is,
They don’t want to change this.
They just want a martyr,
A statue to raise.
I’ve given everything I can.
There are no heroes left in Man.
**Keep Quiet (Lyrics)**:
They say,
This city,
She’s been dead for years now.
So death is
Not something
Not something that scares me.
There’s worse things
Than death here
They told me
Keep quiet
I will not be told where to stand!
I will not be told what to say!
Not by man or machine,
Not by you, not by anyone tonight!
You’re gonna have to do better than fear
You’re gonna have to step out of the shadows and fight!
**Light Up The Night (Lyrics)**:
This city’s sleeping like a soldier trapped inside of an iron lung
Machines can keep you breathing
But what happens when you find a new war’s begun?
Flip a switch and turn it off
You won’t be able to breathe
So either way you’re a casualty
At the heart of the city
There is a building that looks down over all there is
And the man in the tower controls it all without raising a single fist
It’s like they’ve gathered up the city, they sold it to the Devil and now
It’s gone to hell and they wonder how!
**Here Comes The Arm (Lyrics)**
Emily, a crowd has gathered here
And one again they fail to see
You can’t just set the world at someone else’s feet
And not get trampled underneath.
This is not the world my father knew.
And this is not the world I know
He would’ve wanted me to build,
But I can’t undo it now.
It’s like a train and all its cars are filled with steel.
That I would stop if I knew how.
It is bearing down on me.
So I will stand here with my shoulders square and tall,
When the whistle blows, not falter
When the crash comes, I will fall.
With so much steam and steel behind it,
I won’t slow it down at all.
Oh God, oh God…
Here comes the arm.
**Pertinint Solari-Related Observations**
– Statues to Martyrs – tearing them down, re-creating them is a constant theme
– LOTS of symbolism about not being able to breathe, being told “where to stand”
– Worse fates than Death – again, a constant theme
– Man vs. Machine – Machines with ethics losing to those with none, no matter how well-designed
– Selling the “City” to the Devil
– The Protagonist’s struggles involve great sacrifice, to the point of breaking his spirit – even as he builds a more “selfish” life, his creations drag him back into fighting for Man’s autonomy (spiritual destiny)
– Every violent revolution is a ploy to usher in more control, no matter how well-meaning
– SILENCE IS COMPLIANCE. I know, meet, interact with so many people who are astounded that I refuse mask compliance and State-mandated medical dictates. There are “heroes left in Man,” but only if we push back where we can. Everyone who approaches me is far older than I am, yet they cower at the thought of a $500 fine.
For anyone who likes 80s-style rock operas, I cannot recommend the albums enough, but I don’t want to share music for the sake of music itself. It’s for what I suspect is most of Solari’s audience, the 40+ crowd! Share it with your kids. If they will not read Orwell, Huxley, Welles, or any of the other Fabian Socialist fictionistas, there are echoes within modern pop culture that will get the message across. The Protagonist (Dr. Light) is the wise sage and partners with many youthful eccentrics, both human and machine, to accomplish his goals.
I see a lot of misdirected youths these days and a lot of shameful elders who sold their kids’ minds and spirits to State-run education for $100k/yr in the hopes they’d become doctors, lawyers, engineers for evil people.
Push the Red Button or let it be pushed for you. You will not like the outcome either way, but I GUARANTEE you will not like what happens if your brainwashed kids let Mr. Global push it for them.
Wow. Great find. Will check it out. A reminder that memories come from the future.
