Turkey crisis predicted 2+ years ago.
These days, the financial sections of newspapers and online publications are jampacked with articles about Turkey. Everyone wants to sound off like they know what’s going on. But did these pundits predict the current crisis? In the vast majority of cases – no, they didn’t.
But I did predict the current crisis instead of just talking about it now that it is front-and-center, and in this article, we’ll go through my July 2016 analyses and predictions for Turkey and the Turkish economy.
Why long-winded analyses are useless.

My profits from the recent crash
Most analysts like to talk a big game, but they aren’t actually profitable traders themselves – but rather marketers of things such as analyses, expensive trading programs, expensive online courses, and similar.
In this article, I take a look at my recent analysis performance and trading results, including the recent-most mini-crash.

This time it’s different
Will you get out of the stock markets before everyone else, this time?
The tremendous rise in the global stock markets over the last 9 years, has largely come about due to financial engineering, such as the ‘Quantitative Easing’ (QE) programmes undertaken by Western and Asian central banks, and suspension of Mark-to-Market rules for Western banks.
Are the Stock Markets parasitic? A Rebuttal of commonly held negative beliefs about the stock markets and trading.
Far too often these days, we hear the claim that “the stock markets are parasitic and serve no purpose except for parasites to live off of the working class”. This claim is utter nonsense, and even an utterly immoral claim, founded in laziness, hatred and jealousy, as will be made evident in and by this article.
Let’s examine what stock markets actually are, what their purpose is, and whether or not the claim can be substantiated.
Happy New Year 2017!

Is the 35-year long downtrend in interest rates over?
Since July 2016, the US Treasury yields (i.e. interest rates) have been steadily climbing, with the trend gaining considerable short-term strength after the election of Donald J. Trump as the 45th US President.
While the immediate market reaction is ascribed to several factors, including market participants expecting a pickup in inflation, as well as increased profits for banks (due to a presumed steepening of the yield curve), these factors are only part of the explanation.
The latest liqudiation wave started in the evening of November the 8th (US timezones), when it started to become clear that Donald Trump was winning the Electoral Vote.
