"Powerful Force" Controls Financial Markets
December 20, 2013
If the Illuminati control politics and culture,
why wouldn't they control the markets as well?
Thom Beecham, our resident market guru says economic realities
don´t count. Markets are "Pavlovian dogs" reacting to central bank policy.
Beecham called the decline in gold and says the globalists want gold
to go lower, and stocks to continue their trek higher.
"The only reason the globalists can get away with all this is because the population has become degenerate and morally bankrupt themselves. Only a self-absorbed populace can fall for the tenets of socialism - the concept that they can get something for nothing. "

Henry, the economy is a sham. I do not disagree with the patriot assessments. The patriots are more correct than the mainstream media. I am just saying that a VERY POWERFUL force is in control. I just trade on the trends. I have been making money trading accordingly. I made a lot of money Wednesday. You already know what I have been doing. [Short gold, long market] Gold just broke 1,200 again, and the DOW stands on the precipice of a phase transition. Anyone standing in front of this train will get laid waste.
Believe me, I have a difficult time accepting all this. As an economist by education and trader by profession, I am used to traditional measures and algorithms to gauge markets. But like I said in my February and April articles, traders have become Pavlovian dogs - we have been neutered and are just trying to anticipate and interpret official moves.
The only reason the globalists can get away with all this is because the population has become degenerate and morally bankrupt themselves. Only a self-absorbed populace can fall for the tenets of socialism - the concept that they can get something for nothing.
In order for ideas like free healthcare to flourish, society must become degraded morally and intellectually. Obviously, this has been achieved - you write about this. Only this type of person can believe the lies of the economy and what the media says about it. In other words, a morally bankrupt society deserves a morally bankrupt financial system - they get what they deserve. Anyone with morals and integrity looks at this economic train with disgust, but a morally bankrupt person sees nothing wrong.
I knew there was a better-than-even shot the USFed was going to taper Wednesday, BUT I kept my gold and silver shorts, and kept my deep-in-the-money DOW and SPY calls - though I lightened up by about 20%. I should have just not done a thing. Normally, any taper would have been stock and gold bearish, but the trends reaffirmed themselves. Stocks took off and gold tanked. I refilled my gold shorts in the 1,230's, and bought back my calls at S&P 1780.
Anyone fighting this rigged trend will be broke. Now, that these levels in the debt, equity, and commodity markets have been reached, pensions and large institutions managing 10's of trillions in total are and have been looking for yield. The DOW blue chips now yield more than many sovereign debt issues. This money is hungry for yield and is turning to equities in a desperate attempt to overcome actuarial trends, with many established stocks yielding over 3-4% in dividends.
The distortions in all the markets are unprecedented, but they have been so for five years. I keep saying that this VERY POWERFUL FORCE can keep things going much longer than most patriots can keep solvent, and any "informant source" is most likely coming from intelligence sources, to keep people away from making money.
The patriots are the ones who are easily duped by this crap, for they pose as the potential enemy to government when the "collapse" does come. The best way for government to marginalize them is to contrive a collapse (like in 2008) and tell them that another one is just around the corner.
One more thing, Henry... I am getting sick of chicken littles with "informed sources." They reject well thought out analysis by saying the markets are wrong and that things are getting ready to collapse, because some disinfo source says so. They do the real remnant a disservice, and these broken clocks will be judged accordingly. They are leading the simple sheep astray with fear and lies.

First Comment by Kevin Boyle:
The main thrust of this article may be correct. Obviously society is morally degenerate. Obviously high finance pulls the strings of the markets.
But the following statement..."..........In order for ideas like free healthcare to flourish, society must become degraded morally and intellectually....." is absolute rubbish. The writer of such tripe must regard money itself as God. What kind of hideous brainwashing has manufactured such a distorted perspective?
If a society allows the poor and the weak to die because they can't afford treatment....this reality a far more powerful exemplar of moral and intellectual degredation than healthcare free at the point of use (which does not, of course, mean such care is simply 'free'. Such care is a political expression of a people's mutual concern for each other's well-being).
This is so obvious that I can't be bothered arguing the case further. The very best thing about the UK (where I live) is it's 'socialised' medical system. After the depression of the 1930's and WW2 the working classes of GB demanded this for themselves. If the politicians had not delivered they would have had to endure a great wrath. The NHS (National Health Service) is that generation's great gift to us all, a the overwhelming majority of Britons will, believe me, still agree.

Re Thom Beecham's statement: "In order for ideas like free healthcare to flourish, society must become degraded morally and intellectually" - he is wrong. There is no such thing as 'free' healthcare, for a start. It's paid for by taxes - NI in the UK. And it's a sign that society cares for the sick. It's tax money actually going on the people who pay tax. Some things should be available to all in a truly humane society, and healthcare is one of those things. Or would Beecham sooner see tax money going on war; tax cuts for the already super-rich, bailouts for the unchecked bankers, etc etc? Not to mention, of course, the profits made by the insurance companies - while the Americans pay twice over for healthcare; many are refused it altogether, or end up with huge bills after a hospital stay. What does Beecham think taxes should go on, if not making sure every citizen has access to needed healthcare?
Every truly spiritual religion tells us to care for the sick. It takes a society that's 'degraded morally and intellectually' to think that 'free' healthcare is a terrible thing - all the while supporting a trillion dollar military complex and a massive - and growing - divide between rich and poor. If people aren't working, maybe that's got something to do with the fact that so many of the industries have been deliberately shut down, wages have fallen while the cost of living has risen, and so on. There will always be people who want something for nothing if they can get it - but that's no reason to deny 'free' medical care to people.
The way healthcare is connected to employment in America is just one more way of turning people into wage slaves, imo - making sure that, however bad their job is, they can't leave it because then they'd be vulnerable to massive medical bills if they or any of their family fell ill. This is not the mark of a civilised society. The fact that so many Americans actually defend this system just shows, imo, how brainwashed by it they've been. It's a great scam for the govt. - get citizens to pay taxes that don't go on making life better for them - and - get 'em to think this is a GOOD thing. Tom Sawyer painting the fence didn't come close ...(!)
