If you want your own RESILIENCE shirt to proudly wear like Chris, go to: https://www.peakprosperity.com/shirts After nine months of intensive coverage of the covid-19 pandemic, it's time to start focusing these videos on other subjects just as important to our future well-being. But before I do, what have we learned over the course of these coronavirus videos? Well, for starters: we thankfully know a good deal at this point how the SARS2 virus infects people and how to treat it cheaply and effectively (even if world governments refuse to do so). The virus has revealed a profound lack of integrity amongst our "leaders" and public health institutions. I don't think that trust will be easily regained -- if ever -- in our lifetime. But while we didn't get *everything* right in our coverage, I'm pretty darn impressed with how far out front of the mainstream media we've consistently been. Putting out these videos, 5/week through May and then 2/week afterwards has been the most intensive effort of my life. Given all of the messages of gratitude Adam and I have received from our viewers, and the stories of how this information may have protected and saved lives around the world -- all the effort was definitely worth it.

If you want your own RESILIENCE shirt to proudly wear like Chris, go to: https://www.peakprosperity.com/shirts Several recent studies show that Vitamin D is a powerful weapon in preventing and treating covid-19. We all should be taking it. It’s now been clinically proven that people deficient in Vitamin D are statistically more likely to contract the coronavirus if exposed. And similarly, those with greater Vitamin D levels are statistically less likely to get it. And a new study out of Spain shows that Vitamin D (via Calcifediol) is one of the most effective treatments that reduces the impact of those infected with covid-19. When combined with a prudent standard of care including early delivery of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, the results are pretty staggering. How staggering? Of 50 patients treated this way, only one (2%) required admission to the ICU vs the control group where 50% of patients required admission. Following the recent insights about the Bradykinin pathway of transmission, we are now really starting to gain the upper hand on understanding effective ways to prevent and treat covid-19. Which should enable us to save lives AND re-open our economies. Don't forget to get your free download of Peak Prosperity's book Prosper!.

The crazy stock market rally since the March lows has received all the media headlines, but what about real estate? What impact is the coronavirus having on that market? One of the most successful real estate investors we know, Ken McElroy, says that covid-19 is accelerating and exacerbating a bust cycle that was already in the making. He predicts massive upheaval in 2021. Full description and comments at: https://www.peakprosperity.com/ken-mcelroy-the-coming-real-estate-crash-of-2021/

As of the time of this publication, over the past day and half, the S&P 500 has fallen by -5.5% and the Nasdaq by -9%. As we have long been warning, tops are processes, which can take months to play out. But corrections are events; they happen quickly -- oftentimes leaving you no time to react. Case in point: just look at Tesla (TSLA). On Tuesday, the stock hit an all-time-high of $500/share. Investor confidence was off the charts. But now? It's down to $380. That's a 24% drop. In just two and a half days. Given the (over)confidence the months-long rally had imbued them with, many recent investors in Tesla were buying call options vs the underlying stock. Given the current plunge, those call options are now totally worthless. A LOT of people, many of them neophytes who didn't appreciate the risk involved and who can't afford these losses, have just gotten badly burned. Of course, TSLA is just one example. The current carnage in the markets is widespread, across all sectors -- exactly as we've been warning for months was likely to happen. And yet, there's another factor that may add additional surprise for investors into the mix: the potential that the US dollar may strengthen substantially from here. That is a move that today's markets are definitely NOT expecting, with shorting the USD currently being one of the most popular trades. This week's guest expert, Brent Johnson of Santiago Capital explains the Dollar Milkshake Theory and why he predicts the vast one-sided trade against the US dollar is dangerously wrong. In the short term, if surprised by a sharply-rising dollar, markets will likely sell-off further. Those watching these weekly Market Update videos know well that we've been warning for months that this is one of the most treacherous times ever for investors. The "unstoppable" rally may very well have just ended and, given the massive over-valuations that still remain as well as the persisting damage to the real economy, the bottom may be far lower than current market participants can imagine.

The test kits currently being used to test for covid-19 infection are too different from one another, and many have sensitivities set so high that they are giving too many false positives. We need to standardize on tests that will actual give us accurate information. Second, let's talk bad testes. The data is in, and it doesn't look good for men who get sick with covid-19. Severe cases appear to do serious damage to the seminiferous tubules of the testes, which produce and regulate testosterone. We don't yet know what the effect, lasting or otherwise, this damage may have on fertility. But this underscores our longstanding advice: you don't want to get this virus if you can avoid it.

SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with John and the New Harbor Financial team here: https://www.greylockpeak.com/ Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell announced on Thursday that the Fed will now shift its focus from hitting inflation targets and instead prioritize closing "unemployment shortfalls". This gives it cover to do "whatever it takes" until the unemployment rate is back down into the low single digits. Inflation can now run hotter than 2%, rates can stay at 0% (or go negative) for the next decade+, more QE.... all is fair game now in the pursuit of lower unemployment. Essentially, the Fed is now tripling-down on the same failed policies that have created today's zombie economy and the worst economic inequality in our nation's history. Perhaps the folks at the Fed are smarter than we think, and there's actually a grand plan they're pursuing that's going to work out to society's benefit? Sadly no, reveals this week's expert guest, Danielle DiMartino-Booth. Danielle knows the Fed inside and out, as she worked as a consultant for nearly a decade to Richard Fischer, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, including helping deal with the Great Financial Crisis. She knows how the organization runs, as well as the specific people running it. And her assessment is that the Fed is trapped in a nightmare of its own making and is merely playing for time at this point. Everything it throws at the situation is designed to hopefully get the system to limp through the next quarter or two without breaking, at which point they'll scramble to come up with the next short-term "solution". In the video below, Danielle breaks down the important takeaways and repercussions of Chairman Powell's Jackson Hole speech and vents her frustration at both his duplicity with the public and the media's cowardly refusal to hold him to account. As our other recent guest experts have warned, Danielle confirms this is an exceptionally treacherous time in the markets for investors, as the Fed's intervention has and continues to deform and distort prices far beyond reason.

Now the good news: not only is it exceptionally rare at this point, but the few reported re-infected patients have not been hit hard the second time around. The current Hong Kong patient currently in the media actually experienced NO symptoms during his second infection. Meanwhile, society is in the grip of "covid burnout", exhausted with all the precaution and ready to get back to regular life "virus be damned".

Here in 2020, the stock market looks Too Big To Fall. So much of the status quo is now dependent on ever-higher asset prices that any weakness is immediately met with overwhelming support by the central banks and/or national legislatures. Many are now wondering: will stocks ever be allowed to drop again? While that question sound facetious, it’s not. After a decade+ epic run-up in the markets, capped by the past year-long melt-up to levels of price over-valuation never seen before in history, there are practically no bears left on Wall Street. Having been burned for so long, they can’t afford to remain contrarian. Everyone is now on the same side (long, baby, long) of the boat. Of course, it’s at lopsided moments like this when major reversals catch everyone by surprise, warns this week’s guest expert and master technical analyst, Sven Henrich. Sven regards the markets today as nothing less than a “circus” where a never-ending parade of distractions and rumors serve to divert our attention from the underlying horrible technicals and anaemic fundamentals. In the video below, he walks us through the key technical indicators he’s tracking mostly closely right now that suggest a massive reversion to the mean from today’s distorted highs is a major risk. Can things still go higher from here? Absolutely — but unlikely for much longer, especially with such a contentious US presidential election looming. For Sven, the future is all about calculated risk/reward probabilities. And he sure sees a lot more risks right now for investors than he does continued upside return.

SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with John and the New Harbor Financial team here: https://www.greylockpeak.com/ The melt-up discussed last week remains in full force, with the S&P 500 hitting a new intraday all-time high on Wednesday. Just to make sure we're all clear on this: stocks are back to their highest price BEFORE the coronavirus pandemic exploded. Before Q2 GDP plummeted -33% in the US. Before 50+ million Americans lost their jobs. Thanks to the $trillions shoved into the system by both central banks and national legislatures since April, "investors" now believe the markets are a 1-way ride to forever-increasing wealth. The National Association of Active Investment Managers reports that financial advisory firms that manage client capital are more fully-invested in the markets than at any other time in the past several years. So everyone in "all-in" on the belief that the markets are both fully backstopped and rising higher. How realistic is this belief? Michael Pento, this week's Market Update video expert guest, thinks it's willful delusion. History is crystal clear that disconnects like we have today between (over-inflated) asset prices and the underlying (contracting) economic reality always result in crisis -- either a deflationary repricing, or a destruction of the purchasing power of the currency. Michael shares the 20 financial and economic metrics on the dashboard of indicators he tracks to determine where we are in this story, and which outcome is looking most likely to happen when. This week's interview is worth listening to for that list alone. Not one to mince words, Pento believes this is most treacherous time ever for investors -- which means those blindly long the current melt-up will get slaughtered if indeed the risks he predicts play out. As always, we recommend working in partnership with an independent financial advisor who appreciates these risks, prioritizes preservation of your investment capital, and can help you chart the turbulent waters ahead when the reckoning arrives.

Since covid-19 first emerged, one of our continued recommendations has been to “start a garden”. The pandemic has exposed the fragility of our food supply chains, as well as the shortcomings of our global and national health authorities. So having more self-sufficiency when it comes to calories, as well as better nutrition to boost your immune system, just make good sense. Hence: start a garden. In this week’s podcast, we welcome back Joel Salatin. Labeled by The Washington Post as “the most famous farmer in America”, Joel has spent his career advocating for sustainable farming practices and pioneering models that show how food can be grown and raised in ways that are regenerative to our topsoils, more humane to livestock, produce much healthier & tastier food, and contribute profitably to the local economy. Fresh off huge demand for his farm’s output during the covid lockdown and from releasing two new books, Beyond Labels and Polyface Designs, Joel gives yet another heaping dose of common sense ways we can improve our ecology, economy, food production and wellness — starting with a healthier approach to dealing with the coronavirus.

Well, we're beginning to understand the risks. First the good news: children under 10 do indeed appear to transmit the virus to others much less often than adults do. Though the transmission rate is not zero. Now the bad news: kids between 10 and 19 transmit the virus at the same rate as do adults. So the short answer is: if you send your kids back to a school where they're interacting with others, you should be assume the odds are good they'll get infected at some point. Prepare your household accordingly. Make sure your kids have masks/sanitizers/etc, are urged to respect social distancing, and boost their immune system with a healthy diet and plenty of sleep.

SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with John and the New Harbor Financial team here: https://www.greylockpeak.com/ Well, folks: we're officially in a price melt-up in nearly all asset classes. Stocks (especially Big Tech), bonds, gold, silver, bitcoin -- all are racing higher. And that's happening on top of an already massive run-up from the March lows. If you're looking for a fundamentals-based rationale behind the melt-up -- don't. There isn't one. A single glance at the famous Buffet Indicator sitting at near 200% shows that markets are at a record level of over-valuation. Those cheering this white-hot rally argue that it truly is "different this time" and that the commitment of the world's central banks and national legislatures provide a guarantee that prices will not be allowed to retrace. This week's Market Update video expert guest strongly disagrees. Doug Noland, 30-year veteran portfolio manager, warns that we are in the end game of the biggest financial asset price bubble in history. And like all others, it will end it tears when it bursts. Doug is very concerned by the mind-boggling amount of non-productive credit that is building up as a result of the recent $trillions forced into the system by the Federal Reserve and Congress. It's all mal-investment that will eventually will need to be reckoned with -- and Doug sees the day of reckoning arriving very soon. An experienced scholar of asset bubbles, Doug observes that they often rise higher than we can imagine and then double from there before bursting. He sees the current extreme melt-up as a sign we are entering the end game and urges folks to prepare for it.

Boost your intake of Vitamins D & C, eat healthy, get plenty of rest, and avoid stress. 2) Everyone should wear a mask, practice social distance, and get tested asap if exposure or illness is suspected. At-risk people deserve extra precautionary protections. 3) If exposed or in initial sickness stages, administer HCQ+ within 2 days or sooner of symptoms onset. 4) If symptoms progress, administer MATH+ cocktail. 5) If symptoms worsen further, deliver advanced therapeutic support, ideally in a hospital setting.

If you want your own RESILIENCE shirt to proudly wear like Chris, go to: https://www.peakprosperity.com/shirts Back from a much-deserved vacation, Chris dives into the latest coronavirus data and several insights are becoming clear: 1) Covid-19 is so infectious (R0 of 5+) that it will pretty much make its way through a population regardless of the efforts to avoid it 2) But, it only severely affects a small percentage of those who get it 3) And, more interesting, it's appearing that herd immunity happens quickly, at around 15% This leads to the conclusion that lockdowns may not be worth it. While they may slow the rate of infection spread somewhat, the economic damage they do can dwarf the benefits of that delay. Don't forget to get your free download of Peak Prosperity's book Prosper!.

SCHEDULE YOUR FREE PORTFOLIO REVIEW with Mike, John and the New Harbor Financial team here: https://www.greylockpeak.com/ All of a sudden, Tesla (TSLA), the lead stock of the current massive market rally, is faltering -- down nearly $250/share (14.3%) since yesterday's open. This is important because Tesla embodies the faith, optimism and exuberance that has been required by investors to support stock prices up at their current levels -- which by nearly every conventional measure are now more overvalued than at any prior time in history. As just one example, the total market cap of US stocks now exceeds US GDP by over 155%, an all-time record. With the stock down nearly $400/share since the all-time high price of $1,800/share hit last week, there are now many recent TSLA investors sitting on painful losses. Especially those who bought call options, which have been purchased by an insanely large number of novice investors in Tesla of late. Only one thing ends bull markets, and that's change in sentiment. The sudden painful reversal of a bellwether stock like TSLA, leaving shocked and injured investors in its wake, is exactly the type of trigger that could terminate the mania that's been driving stocks since April. In this week's Market Update video, we interview Jim Bruce, producer of the excellent documentary film Money For Nothing about the Federal Reserve's role in creating the Great Financial Crisis, and who is now working on a new documentary about Tesla. Given his expertise, few people are better positioned to opine on the market environment we now find ourselves in than Jim. Whether it's regarding faith in the Fed or faith in story stocks like Tesla, we're at the point where to continue the status quo, everyone must believe the hype. But what if the hype is a false promise? Well, with Tesla stumbling and threatening to take the markets down with it, we may soon find out.

Not because it came from extraterrestrials, but because of all of the various different ways it's able to wreak havoc on the human body. It's so novel that we don't have a good natural analog to compare it to. And it's still confounding us. While it looked as if we had contained it here in the US, it's now surging back so strongly that overwhelmed hospitals are convening "survival panels" to determine who gets treated and who gets sent home to likely die. We are learning more about it every day, and have a long way to go until we really understand well how it works and how to fight it. So we need to remain vigilant in our efforts to avoid it, or else the resurging death count may go a lot higher: Don't forget to get your free download of Peak Prosperity's book Prosper!.
