Dollar Collapse Starts in Late 2014-Charles Nenner

Ugly 05/21/2014  •

I’m not Dutch, but I have his same thoughts on not trying to make money, but more so not to lose it all. Basically as he says, how do I not lose all that I have worked for?

Hi Greg
I partially disagree with your guest (as you did). There is reason, every cycle has its dynamic, and the dynamic has changed. The things are happening much more faster then a decade or two ago, due that fact the technology is changing much more faster then the generation change is happening not to mention the communication is near instantaneous (in other words the “social time” passing much more faster).
So, he just miscalculated how fast are things going to happen.

Your thoughts.

PS: I agree with Spanky.

When it comes to money, I don’t trust nobody. However, people should be prepared for all occasions – job losses, deflation, inflation, or systemic collapse. Listen to a wide variety of people, as the truth is somewhere in the middle. I think we have reached the point, where it is more about wealth preservation.

Greg,

Enjoy his work, thanks for the interview. I find many in our camp, including me, suffer from “most recent comment complex” that is the most recent story seems to carry the most
weight until the next one comes along. My recent objective (fail most days) is to completely turn off the noise and sleep well knowing I’m doing the right thing. Honestly it really doesn’t help when folks like Jim Sinclair post Nenner interviews the day after he talks up Bo Polny calling for a moon shot in the metals by May’s end. I did want to share with you a piece by Pepe Escobar one of Willie’s favorites that pretty much sums it up.

The Fed is arguably monetizing 70% of the US government debt in an attempt to keep interest rates from heading skywards. Pentagon adviser Jim Rickards, as well as every Hong Kong-based banker, tends to believe that the Fed is bust (though they won’t say it on the record). No one can even imagine the extent of the possible future deluge the US dollar might experience amid a $1.4 quadrillion Mount Ararat of financial derivatives. Don’t think that this is the death knell of Western capitalism, however, just the faltering of that reigning economic faith, neoliberalism, still the official ideology of the United States, the overwhelming majority of the European Union, and parts of Asia and South America.

So it will work until it doesn’t and honestly who can possibly know the day or week????

All the best appreciate what you do

Greg,
Thank for putting this guy on. Ive never heard of him. Its going to be fun to see if he really predicted any of what he claims.
Timing is the holy grail of trading. But it is unadulterated B.S. that manipulation doesn’t effective timing. And he uses Greenspan as an example. Greg, the manipulation going on now is exponential greater. So I dont buy that it doesn’t impact the timing. While anyone can look at history and see cycles, unlike Armstrong and this guy, I disagree that they move at predictable intervals. While planets move to God’s music, financial cycles move to its own music (and yes nothing is beyond God but he gave us free will to screw up as we please).

Greg
We’ve all read abiut the militarization of our police and their constantly devolving behavior toward the people. Here is some interesting reading

“Police are specialists in violence. They are armed, trained, and authorized to use force. With varying degrees of subtlety, this colors their every action. Like the possibility of arrest, the threat of violence is implicit in every police encounter. Violence, as well as the law, is what they represent.”—Kristian Williams, activist and author

May 21 2014 “ICH Living in a free society means not having to look over your shoulder to see whether the government is watching or fearing that a government agent might perpetuate violence upon you.

Unfortunately, as I detail in my book A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State, subjected as we are to government surveillance, body scanners, militarized police, roadside strip searches, SWAT team raids, drones, and other trappings of a police state, “we the people” do not live in a free society any longer.

Not only are we no longer a free people but we have become a fearful people, as well, helped along in large part by politicians eager to capitalize on our fears. As Julie Hanus writes for Utne: “Since the 1980s, society at large has bolted frantically from one panic to the next. Fear of crime reduced us to wrecks, but before long we were also howling about deadly diseases, drug abusers, online pedophiles, avian flu, teens gone wild, mad cows, anthrax, immigrants, environmental collapse, and—let us not forget—terrorists.”

Now thanks to an increasingly militarized police force and police officers who shoot first and ask questions later, we’ve got one more fear to add to that growing list, and with good reason: fear of the police—local, state and federal agents.

Who wouldn’t be afraid of police officers who go around shooting unarmed citizens, tasering women—young and old alike, and forcing law-abiding Americans to the ground at gunpoint?

Such was the case when a Missouri police officer shot and wounded an unarmed panhandler. Texas police, during a raid on a home where music was reportedly being played too loudly, repeatedly tasered a 54-year-old grandmother, kicking and punching other members of the household. A 20-year-old Florida woman who was tasered by a police officer while she was handcuffed ended up in a permanent vegetative state and eventually died. And then there was the homeless man who was shot and killed by Albuquerque police for squatting on public land.

If it were just a few “bad” cops terrorizing the citizenry, that would be one thing. But what we’re dealing with is a nationwide epidemic of court-sanctioned police violence carried out against individuals posing little or no threat of violence, who are nevertheless subjected to such excessive police force as to end up maimed or killed.

For example, Ron Hillstrom was pacing in the parking lot of his apartment complex asking for help when four officers approached him, unleashed their tasers, and subdued him with electric shocks. When Hillstrom fell to the ground, another officer hit him with a flashlight. Hillstrom died soon thereafter.

Danny Cantu was recently awarded $105,000 after Dallas police rushed into his backyard, threw a flash bang grenade into his window, and broke into his home without warning. Cantu was thrown to the ground and beaten with his hands tied behind his back.

Denise Green is suing San Francisco police after a license plate reader misread her license plate, causing her to be pulled over by five police officers who pointed guns at her under the false belief that she was driving a stolen car. After being held at gunpoint on the ground, Green was handcuffed and her car searched before she was finally released.

The toll such incidents take on adults can be life-altering, but when such police brutality is perpetrated on young people, the end result is nothing less than complete indoctrination into becoming compliant citizens of a totalitarian state. The message is clear and chilling: any deviation from what is “allowed” will be punished severely.

Thus, when a 9-year-old Portland girl got into a fight at a youth club, instead of the incident being resolved by staff members and reported to her family, police showed up at her home, arrested the young girl, took her down to the station, fingerprinted her, and had her mug shot taken.

Similarly, when 13-year-old Kevens Jean Baptiste failed to follow a school bus driver’s direction to keep the bus windows closed (Kevens, who suffers from asthma, opened the window after a fellow student sprayed perfume, causing him to cough and wheeze), he was handcuffed by police, removed from the bus, and while still handcuffed, had his legs swept out from under him by an officer, causing him to crash to the ground.

In Missouri, a 7-year-old child was handcuffed because he was allegedly upset about being teased by his classmates. The inconsolable child, who was screaming in class because of the taunting, was taken by the school’s security officer to the principal’s office and handcuffed until his father arrived at the school.

There might be some hope of reform if only this problem of police brutality were not so widespread and endemic, if the citizenry actually had some sway with their representatives, if communities actually had some say over how law enforcement agencies “police” their communities, if police unions did not have such a stranglehold over the oversight process, if the courts were more impartial and less inclined to blindly sanction the actions of the police, and if the federal government itself had not already coopted state and local police agencies in order to transform them into extensions of the military.

In the absence of any credible scenarios that would hold the police accountable to abiding by the rule of law—our U.S. Constitution—and respecting the citizenry’s right to be treated with respect and dignity, the police have become a law unto themselves.

Clearly, the master-servant relationship upon which American government was based has now been reversed. Government agents in general, and the police in particular, now seem to believe they are the masters and we are the servants. It’s definitely time to reestablish us, the American citizenry, as the masters of our government—even if it means showing the oppressors that we will no longer wear their chains.

Some Americans have already begun pushing back. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, for example, where police have been involved in 39 shootings since 2010—with the most recent being a police shooting of an unarmed homeless man camped out in a public park—residents have begun engaging in nonviolent acts of civil disobedience to disrupt the normal functioning of the city government until the police department is brought under control. Community activists actually went so far as to storm a city council meeting and announce that they would be performing a citizens’ arrest of the police chief, charging him with “harboring fugitives from justice at the Albuquerque police department” and “crimes against humanity.”

This growing tension, seen in Albuquerque and felt throughout the country, is a tension between those who wield power on behalf of the government—the president, Congress, the courts, the military, the militarized police, the technocrats, the faceless unelected bureaucrats who blindly obey and carry out government directives, no matter how immoral or unjust, and the corporations—and those among the populace who are finally waking up to the mounting injustices, seething corruption and endless tyrannies that are transforming our country into a police state.

Where we go wrong is in painting our oppressors—whether it be the police, the courts, Congress, or the president—as absolutely evil and ourselves as powerless to resist.

Hannah Arendt, a Holocaust survivor who reported on the war crimes trial of Nazi Adolf Eichmann, a senior officer who organized Hitler’s death camps, denounced Eichmann not because he was evil per se but because he was a bureaucrat who unquestioningly carried out orders that were immoral, inhumane and evil. This, Arendt concluded, was the banality of evil, the ability to engage in wrongdoing or turn a blind eye to it, without taking any responsibility for your actions or inactions.

Coincidentally, the same year that Arendt’s bookEichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil was published, Martin Luther King Jr. penned his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail,” in which he concludes that “the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice.” As King points out, “We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was ‘legal’ and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was ‘illegal.’ It was ‘illegal’ to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler’s Germany.”

In other words, there comes a time when law and order are in direct opposition to justice.

This tension is at the heart of the issue over police brutality, carried out by individuals who may not themselves be evil but are merely following orders, marching in lockstep with a government machine that views us as less than human. So how does one achieve justice without resorting to violence, given that violence only leads to more violence? The only recourse left to us, as both King and Arendt recognize, is mass civil disobedience of the nonviolent sort.  As King notes:

[T]here is nothing new about this kind of civil disobedience. It was evidenced sublimely in the refusal of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to obey the laws of Nebuchadnezzar, on the ground that a higher moral law was at stake. It was practiced superbly by the early Christians, who were willing to face hungry lions and the excruciating pain of chopping blocks rather than submit to certain unjust laws of the Roman Empire. To a degree, academic freedom is a reality today because Socrates practiced civil disobedience. In our own nation, the Boston Tea Party represented a massive act of civil disobedience.

After all, as King declared, “Freedom is never voluntarily given up by the oppressor; it must be demanded.”

John W. Whitehead is an attorney and author who has written, debated and practiced widely in the area of constitutional law and human rights. Whitehead’s concern for the persecuted and oppressed led him, in 1982, to establish The Rutherford Institute, a nonprofit civil liberties and human rights organization whose international headquarters are located in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Jeff 05/21/2014  •

Greg Another good guest. But your commenters are even better. Ditto to all of them…….. I want to add that our gov wants us to believe in the “boogieman deflation”. As long as we are deceived into thinking it’s real they can continue printing and handing out trillions to the banks without a substantial drop in the dollar. That’s also why they keep pressure on gold. It’s all about an image for king dollar……..Nenner lost me when he said the dollar would drop but we would have deflation. Since he’s a “cycle” guy I would think he would know that’s NEVER happened in the history of money. But then promoting GLD should have set off alarms for all of us……Finally, the very thought of waiting for a price drop to buy gold is a fool’s game. One, you’re assuming you can catch the bottom and two, you’re assuming there will be any available to buy at that price. Don’t forget, you have to be holding dollars (pieces of paper) while waiting for that bottom. That is not my definition of NOT LOSING MONEY.

Derrick Michael Reid 05/21/2014  •

Mr Hunter, I trust I can be brutally honest. Dont hesitant not to post, if you cant handle it.

Mr Nenner, comes right out the shut, and says that manipulations have no effect, which kind of blows GATA TFMR and others completely out of the water. Yet, he cant not explain the validity of cycles. And here I thought only spiritual creation was solely based upon faith. If he can not explain why the cycles work, and some creditable proof is required by this doubting thomas, and if he says manipulations have no effect, yet it has been witnessed personally for at least 15 years, with naked dumps and gross naked positions painting charts, the initial conclusion, at first take, is that he is a charlatan from the get go. Just a first impression. Is this guy related to Armstrong? Just asking. Of course yours will now listen to the entire interview by Hunter, but the focus is not what he predicts, but the proof of what he says. Of course, I could be wrong, but it dont look good.

Nenner in a charlatan in my opinion, and that is the conclusion. He says the market has cycles, without any explanation as to why? Brainwave: perhaps because there is none. Asked about what greenspan did, as affecting cycles, and he dist it off saying, well he is part of the market. Extension: JPM manipulates metal prices, well then, that is just part of the market. In other words, all acts are of no account, because they are inherently part of the market, which is unbelievable. Its not that he is not aware of things going on, which he certainly is. Its not that he lack understanding of things. Its not that he is saying anything really different from others hypothicating, with reason. But when it comes to proving his cycles, there is nothing. Now, yours has indicated that there are cycles, such as Freedom v Totalitarianism, and Freedom won in 1776, but as the country matured, with political pandering, and sought after control, which is human for those in charge, the rules become excessive to where totalitarism rises, until, it collapses again. The rational bases was an understanding of human kind, innate drivers in us all. Nenner can not explain why there are economic cycles, they just go up and down, like duh, and can be influenced, by technology, the industrial revolution that stretches out cycles, but the cycles exist not per se based upon faith, but by real live influences that can expand or compress, and he of course hedges his bets with “about” “could”, etc, meaning that his cycles are not written in stone based upon faith, but rather a composite of real influences.

His cycles are not magical, or faith driven, nor written in stone, but approximation based upon real-time influences, yet dist those influences, to make his cycles appear mysterious and faith base. He also indicated that the economy did not go up much in this last economic cycle, and so that, deflation is likely and that next year will see a very hard down turn. This is straight forward economic analysis. He may have a good track record, but its not from precised timed cycles, but rather good consideration of comtemperious data and real time input of market events. There is no magic in “cycle” per se, but rather informed predictions, which is nothing more than what most other hypothicators do, some better than others. Nenner focus on “cycle” is a mere marketing gimmic, and yet, Nenner may very well predict with good precision, and an excellent input to follow, ditto Armstrong. Cycles per se are absolute BS. Predictions based upon real time events, is something much more.

Nenner’s cycle, and july seems to be the up-turn time for bullion, and yes it may turn then, but that would mean for a “cycle” low that gold breaks 1180 lows of last june-july, which is uncertain. Others have indicated that the silver down trend is moving into a TA wedge corner, and june-july would be timely for a break out. That dont make them farcical cyclist, but rather informed hypothecator, which is nothing more that what Nenner and Armstrong are, and many others are as well.

Yes, Freedom and Totalitarianism cycle. Yes, economies cycles. Yes, war cycles. They all inherently cycle, but to predict length or amplitude of such is nothing more than informed educated prediction by observers, some better than others.

On another point, RESERVE CURRENCY STATUS. We all have seen charts of so call reserve currencies going back 100s of years. Up until 1964, all such reserve currencies were variants of the monetary metals. The so called reserve currency is nothing more than which country produced by economic might the most monetary metal currency, and, regardless of WHO minted the bullion, the currency remained the same specie, the type of money, monetary metals, and thus the reserve currencies DID NOT CHANGE ONE LITTLE BIT over the last 5000 years. Fiat currency is another matter, and fiat currencies have historically failed, all 600 of them, and yet the monetary metal reserve currencies and local metal currencies, NEVER FAILED, and that has not changed. While many can call the US fiat dollar the world reserve currency, it is not a monetary metal reserve currency with an inherent propensity to stand the test of time, but a fiat dollar that will fail, like all fiat currencies, so it will fail like all fiat money, along with many others, but not bullion metal currencies. What is unique about this time period 1964-present is that the world has generally used fiat currencies dominated by the US fiat dollar, and hence, the collapse of them all, concurrently will be devastating to the global economy generally. The ASE has never and will never fail as a street currency, and AGE has never and will never fail as a store of wealth, and as such, you all can talk until you are blue in the face about the petro-dollar hegemony as being something tangible, and about the fiat yaun as the next global reserve currency, but it will never happen. When the global fiat hegemony fails, on monetary metal currencies will be trusted. Gold and Silver are real money that stand the test of time. China knows this, and is buying gold hand over fist.

What Nenner said was that cycle dominate irrespective of market influences, and said that such cycles will prevail. The point being is that manipulation paints the charts and carves out the cycles. His focus on cycles as being somehow grand is believed total BS. Cycles are created by real time events and influences, and are not “inherent” and fixed. It is not that Nenner is not sharp, or does not understand the influences. In order to hype his “cycles” as a marketing gimmic, he peddles that notion, yet turns around and adjusts his cycles with market events and influences. And that is the objection, as if he and armstrong have stumbled onto something new, or are using a trick somehow, but boiling it down, it is nothing more than straight forward market analysis and predictions, like so so many others. Surely he can be a valuable input, but he has not found the rosetta stone by any measure.

Hunter’s first question. Given all the manipulation, libor, QE, how does that affect cycles.

Nenner: It dosent.

It cant be more clear than that. Its his own words. Yet, in a convoluted, disingenuous manner, later goes on to teach that market events and influences will adjust the cycles, meaning of course, THERE ARE NO PRECISE CYCLES, other than, generally saying the markets goes UP and DOWN, which is right on, and a huge DUH, having some correlated frequency and amplitude as a guide post, but no more. Thus, there is nothing inherently precise in cycles, merely saying that markets go up and down, and later teaching that cycles are adjusted by market events and influences. When you look at what he really teaches, in totality, his cycles (other than they tend to go up and down), its convoluted. Its nothing more than a marketing gimmic to fraudulently suggest that he (and armstrong) are on to something solid and novel and of real account. But it aint. Its a marketing gimmic.

I am not saying he is not a good predictor and may be perhaps a valuable input to consider, and that some have made money following him, but this whole cycle thing, is a mere marketing play, in my eyes, that is fraudulent and maybe perhaps is why armstrong got thrown in jail. All GS employees and ex-employees should do time, in my book.

Lets take for example, the Dow/Gold ratio since the creation of the FED. It generally cycles in a megaphone pattern, and curve fitting would allow one to generate an average frequency and time based coefficient as to amplitude, and one would then predict a higher Dow, but a collapse to 0.4 on the next down cycle, with time about 2016. This cycle did not exist prior to 1913 when the FED was created, and thus this cycle was not inherent in the economy, but largely created by a market event, the creation of the FED. This cycle can be used to predict market action and be adjusted by market events. Thus, cycles are real, but created by and influenced by market events. The market events are the drivers, not the cycle per se. There could be some “resonant” frequency inherent in econo-social structures, and cycles could surface as a result of them. But to suggest that cycles are the end all, the focal point, the primary driver, and are not substantially affected by market events, is a marketing hype to set one apart from others. Some may look as recent cycles, say that 100 years, of the modern era, and use the cycles as one parametric input to a prediction, and that is valid.

But to say that market events do not affect cycles (or even do not create cycles), is disingenuous, and said to make believe that Nenner (and Armstrong) is on to something special. He is not. Its a marketing ploy.

Just one man’s opinion, I could be right.
Yours, D

Greg says ” I am one of those people who is afraid of systemic collapse. I am beginning to think there is no way to avoid it.”……… Have you noticed the silence in congress. These guys live to pass laws for us to live by (us, not them). They love their press time in front of a camera. But are now nowhere to be found………. I think they know it’s already too late (anyone with a 4th grade math level should—that leaves out Pelosi and a few others). The debt is beyond payment and they are content watching the WH create a few distractions to deceive the sheeple. After decades of overspending they are washing their hands and walking away. After all, with an economic collapse and martial law their position will be only symbolic. They will exist only to prove we still live under a democracy……. then King Nobama will reign.

Mitch Bupp 05/22/2014  •

Thanks Greg, I enjoyed Mr. Nenners perspective. I think that everyone gets lost when we talk about inflation and deflation. I see the government has purposely confused these terms in the public’s eyes. The average Joe or Jane thinks of inflation as… “The price of goods is moving up” while the truth is that the fixed currency is deflating. The fixed value of a $5 or $10 bill appears constant to the public and psychologically embrace that idea. If you use the government CPI figures and look back through history you will find that the price of basic goods adjusted for inflation have not substantially changed. This appears to a point toward the truth that our currency has deflated not that inflation has caused prices to rise. Just an idea what do you think?

Dear Wolfgang,

Thank you for this information. I am certain that the Dutch citizens would far rather have
their debts to De Nederlandsche Bank cancelled and idem ditto for the rest of the world’s
citizens, who were counting on the compounded interest on those bonds that actually
belongs to them as the ultimate beneficiaries in the Global Debt Facility.

We will see how the Banking Cartel answers their demands. The Dutch government may
also be interested in a friendly discussion stateside. The chances are 90-95% that US
citizens demand for the Act of 1871 to be rescinded via a Constitutional Convention under
Article V. US citizens do not agree that their tax revenues should go 40% to the City of
London and 60% to the Vatican.

Jerry, your guess is as good as mine but I do know Turkey has been sitting on the fence regarding which side to align with (east/west). They are strategically sitting in the middle of everything(Iran, China, Russia, Iraq). So it would make sense for China/Russia to pull them to the east side……. This currency play could just be a little pressure to get them off the fence………… Joy… “He said the United States has decided not to remain a world power”…… has decided ? more like, it has been decided for them….. I hope Nenner didn’t really say that.

Greg, perhaps you remember that interview with John Williams in which he said that there will be hyperinflation in the USA in 2014? I posted a comment, stating that it is not going to happen. I want to go on record again by stating that the US dollar will NOT collapse in 2014. Let’s see which one of us is right by the year end.

I am agnostic about gold. I *think* it bottomed in December – but there is a distinct possibility that I am wrong about it and it makes a lower low in the summer.
