Armageddon Trade

Armageddon Trade--a gamble that there is way more downside possible than upside.   I did enter this trade, short ES futures at Friday market close.

The G7 currency is tough to model, really impossible for me.  

Also this weekend a "Super Moon", big gravitational pulls, big tidal effects.   As Japan's nuclear mess teeters.   Be careful what you wish for if you desire to live in interesting times.

Also, below, a message from Arch Crawford, a real Astro and technical guy.   He did go bullish in Spring 2009, I know for sure, I called his number on a Sunday and he answered and gave me about 10 minutes of perspective.  

Arch indicates chance for huge earthquakes, but rationally, I believe that very much energy has already been expended with 526 earthquake over 4.0 in the last week, there is usually 60 to 90 and it goes in cycles.   This is a spike I have never seen before.   Get your tripod ready for some great moon pictures.  I post some on the weekend.







CRAWFORD PERSPECTIVES
CONSULTING CLIENTS  [current and former]
THIS SATURDAY [March 19], we get another SUPERMOON that is bigger/meaner than the Feb 18 instance! It will be the largest Tidal Forces in over 18 years.
Please remember that the Tides exist in the Ground as well as the Water. Some of the largest ever quakes have been on or very near these SuperMoons.  Many have also passed without powerful effects.  We consider the current set-up to be especially difficult with the planetary pictures adding to the significance and the effects we have already seen from the lesser Full Moon on Feb 18.  The Tidal Forces do NOT cause earthquakes, but they can trigger them on fault lines that have built up significant plate techtonic pressures.
 Remember that psychics Edgar Cayce and Jeanne Dixon said in the late 40's & 50's that JAPAN would SINK BEFORE CALIFORNIA SINKS!!!
Jim Berkland, being interviewed on FOX NEWS gives a time window for greatest danger from March 19-26.                                                                                                                                 Earthquake Prediction 2011 Jim Berkland - A Major Earthquake in North America Imminent                                                                                                                                                http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQXDt4VdS0E

In addition:
 On April 3, there will be a Mars/Uranus conjunction ON THE PLACE of Uranus in the Cardinal Climax chart - touching off the whole damned thing in a really powerful way!
 Every contact with it so far has brought devastating natural disasters.
20 Million were displaced from their homes by WATER in Pakistan and China the week of the original CC.
 When Eclipses activated it in late Dec - early Jan = 22 towns were Under Water in Australia.
 The Uranus touches the Zero Cardinal degree March 11, and WHAM!
 That's is a tremendously powerful record to date for the CC!
 My only disappointment is that they did nothing to our markets because the government interference held it together, NOT that that is bad in itself, but the cumulative printing of money for every occasion will take our whole system down when it goes, most likely from external events that the Central Bankers cannot control.   LIKE NOW!!
We have mentioned in former CP newsletters that we respect the Mormon tradition of keeping two years worth of Food and Water in their homes.  Add to that necessary medicines, extra gas, and sufficient Currency [including old silver coins].
 That's MY take on things.
 All best regards.   Arch Crawford

  1. Going max short on research by Arch is way better than thinking for yourself. As for interference holding up our markets I think that is a bit of a "loser hand". Capital does flow between nations after all. Check your charts, it appears to be leaving Asia and speculative stocks. At this point in 07 remember the Dow and Nas kept climbing as the spooky got worse....and then tipped over. But always later than the permabears want.

    Where is the volume demonstrating someone, somehow helped prop up the markets?
    Wouldn't that leave footprints? Does no one have an objective way to measure these things?

  2. The Fed has come straight out and said that they were propping up the equities market and their goal was to create a "wealth effect", seriously.....do you require more proof than a direct admission? 80% of the ramp was caused with futures buying on the weekends and "1st day of month" buying.

    Please read the article if you care to get snippy, at least. I did not place a bet based on Arch, I placed bet based on "fundamentals" of numerous black swan in swooping motions, and the PRS channels, and ES position on the PES 100 channel line. The chart is above.

  4. Eh, Steveo, forget the snipers. Obviously a person who doesn't come here much and isn't familiar with your own work.

    As for Arch, you know, newsletter guys who aren't worth listening to don't usually last for 30 or 40 or however many years Arch is in business. My only problem is, there's really no place to keep two years' of food and water in a Manhattan apartment! lol

    Just as well, I probably wouldn't live through the chaos of an Armageddon event here, anyhoo.
