War is never a solution, and it is always the civilian population that suffers—but Israel is reaping the seeds of hatred it has sown.

Uncertainty persists
Investors remain unsettled. Despite the IPO euphoria surrounding SpaceX, investors aren’t getting excited. Basic confidence in the U.S. market remains relatively low. The situation is quite different in Germany, where institutional investors are showing remarkable strategic confidence. We’re also seeing a significant rise in basic confidence among professionals when it comes to gold.

Under The Western Empire You Get Punished For Having A Conscience

The UK has sentenced four anti-genocide activists to years in prison on terrorism charges, and the US is working to deport a prominent foreign policy analyst for criticizing the war in Iran.

There will never be a deal.

The Iran delays are tactics to regroup and rearm.

Trump's focus is on the stock market.

Another Vietnam is brewing.

WHY are we letting Israeli soldiers destroy every inch of Palestine? Is it ''a war''? Would you accept others do this to you and your home?

Let's stop this genocide together.

Good Morning from Germany, where corporate insolvencies keep climbing: Courts registered 2,308 business bankruptcies in March 2026, up 15.8% YoY, and highest since 2013. Consumer insolvencies jumped even more sharply, by 18.9%. The squeeze on Germany’s economy is far from over.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump just fired 49 Tomahawks in a single night, and the man who ran America's counterterrorism center says the math behind this war stopped working a long time ago.

Joe Kent, former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, says this week is exactly what he's warning about.

Over 100 days of massive combat power, multi-million dollar munitions burned nightly, all billed to the taxpayer for a tit-for-tat with no end date.

The risk-versus-gain makes zero sense, and Kent says Washington needs the diplomatic off-ramp before escalation removes the option entirely.

A few years ago I began researching the natal chart of the United States (4 July 1776), looking back at wars, market reactions, geopolitical events and major turning points throughout history.

By identifying the most sensitive degrees/midpoints in the chart and tracking hard planetary transits to those points, I created what I call the USA Active Zones Indicator.

The higher the peak, the more heavily activated the US chart is by transits that, historically, have coincided with significant geopolitical, military and financial events.

So far in 2026, the indicator peaked on:

• 3 January – US action involving Venezuela
• 26 February – commencement of the Iran conflict
• 27 March – the Dow Jones low
The next date is 11 th June, which is actually the highest peak of the entire year. Today we are once again seeing a significant escalation in US-Iran tensions and military activity.

This is why I believe the study of cycles, history and astrology remains so valuable. As W.D. Gann taught, the key is always to look back into the past because history repeats when the same transits return.

On the early side, but historically stocks forming an important high within two months of Jupiter trine Neptune (around July 20 this year) is normal. Outer planet spectator one another require bigger orbs than those involving faster moving transits.

Hard to tell if that ATH last week in ZU. S. stock mkt was the high we are looking for btw May-Nov, or just a half- primary cycle crest, and decline happening now and due this week or next is just a half- primary cycle low, to be followed by another rally to new highs in the next 3-8 weeks - and then the double digit decline.

I still favor that path, but it’s possible the high is in too. Would prefer to see at least one market make a new ATH closer to July 20 and for a last gasp of irrational exuberance.

Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner findet unsere Nationlfarben peinlich und schickt die "Bundestagspolizei" (ja, so was gibt's; wohl im Einsatz gegen politische Oppositionelle) zum Fahnen-Klau (bei der Opposition). Wer oder was ist dieses Land? Deutschland darf es nicht heißen und Fahne darf es nicht haben, seine Grenzen sind aufgelöst und seine Pässe verschenkt.

BREAKING: China bought +10 tonnes of gold in May, the largest monthly addition since January 2025.

This follows +8 tonnes acquired in April, marking their 3rd consecutive monthly net purchase.

China has now bought gold for 19 consecutive months, the longest streak since at least 2015, when its central bank began publishing more regular data on its gold reserves.

This brings China's official gold reserves to a record 2,331 tonnes, worth over 9% of their total FX reserves.

The country is also the 3rd-largest central bank buyer year-to-date, after Poland and Uzbekistan, with a total of +27 tonnes added.

China’s demand for gold is accelerating.

The S&P 500 $SPX is still following the the July 2024 pattern perfectly.

This is suggesting markets bottom today temporarily until mid next week, which lines up perfectly with the BoJ rate decision June 16 and Kevin Warsh's 1st Fed chair meeting June 17.

I've noticed the past 2 days the algos have been pumping market futures then allowing the selloff during regular trading hours. Psychologically they want retail afraid and selling.

If they're setting a pump and dump trap for retail, suddenly that algo will flip with the SpaceX IPO. Markets will dump overnight and rally during the day, with a final upward move that makes retail think the selling is over.

If we continue to follow the July 2024 pattern, expect one more massive leg down after VIXpiration / OpEx next week.

Es darf nicht in Vergessenheit geraten:

3 Jahre, 8 Monate – 1352 Tage – sind seit dem Anschlag auf NordStream vergangen.

Niemand wurde verurteilt. Es gibt bis heute keine echte Aufklärung. Reparaturen finden nicht statt, der einzig intakte Strang bleibt ungenutzt. Unser Land und unsere Wirtschaft wurden gezielt angegriffen – und darüber wird weiter geschwiegen. Das ist ein Skandal und Verrat an unserem Wohlstand.

Wir brauchen endlich eine konsequente Strafverfolgung, durch die Justiz, einen Untersuchungsausschuss und eine Enquete-Kommission. Nur mit vollständiger Aufklärung und der Wiederinbetriebnahme von NordStream 1 & 2 können wir zur Normalität zurückkehren.

Nach Merz’ „Wir schaffen das“ jetzt Klingbeil (SPD): „Wir sehen, dass Migration dieses Land reicher macht.“ Die Ratlosigkeit von SPD und CDU äußert sich auch darin, absurde Behauptungen aus der Vergangenheit in der Gegenwart zu wiederholen.

Wind and solar aren't the future - they are a high-maintenance, low-yield, asset-degrading collection of unreliable gadgetry.

Ultimately, the actual physics makes them exceptionally intermittent and they fail to deliver a true net profit to everyone who was forced to subsidise them. We are told wind and solar are the limitless, romantic future of energy. But when you strip away the romance, they are not pristine monuments to progress.

The reality is, they are complex jumbles of electronics, specialised glass, composite blades and concrete foundations. Like any domestic appliance, they degrade, malfunction and eventually they just wear out, sooner rather than later.

Whether it is a 'minor rural block' or a massive multi-million-dollar commercial farm, the financial equation is plagued by intermittency. Because these technologies only work sometimes, they require trillions in redundant grid infrastructure, backup gas plants, or toxic, short-lived battery arrays just to keep the lights on.

The narrative promises clean, free power from the sky. But both wind and solar are bound by physical barriers that guarantee they can never deliver the promised utopian returns.

A wind turbine cannot simply absorb all the energy passing through it. In 1919, physicist Albert Betz proved that if a turbine extracted 100% of the wind’s kinetic energy, the air behind the blades would stop moving entirely, blocking any new wind from entering. The absolute mathematical maximum efficiency for any open-airflow turbine is 59.3%.

Because of this physical wall, real-world utility turbines max out at around 45% efficiency in perfect conditions. But because the wind rarely blows at perfect speeds, their actual annual average output (capacity factor) globally sits at a dismal 25% to 40% depending on location. They aren't magical power plants; they are mechanical bottlenecks.

Solar panels face an equally rigid thermodynamic wall. Standard silicon panels have a maximum theoretical efficiency of roughly 33% because nearly half of all incoming solar energy is simply too powerful to be captured and is instantly lost as heat, while another chunk of photons passes right through the material like a ghost.

Millions of homeowners who bought into rooftop solar since the late 2000s are discovering the financial math didn't hold up. As early subsidies and high buy-back tariffs evaporated, owners were left with creeping daily grid supply charges and degrading panels.

After only 10 to 15 years, the costly inverters fail, leaving properties with expensive, non-functioning roof clutter.
