zerohedge says we're doomed. They're always saying that. But this time, they're right.

See the price chart. What is it telling you?

Thanx Shinno:

Added the infomine to my favs. Like the charts!

So if we could chart how America is doing with the failure of empire we would see a decent decline back in '09 with a leveling off or moderate trading range since and could we predict another waterfall or perhaps a decent not as steep coming soon? I'm sure the sequester will add to it, but I don't see Americans rioting for voluntary austerity.

Not sure, John. Lately, I am more and more inclined to subscribe to the "things will gradually get worse and then suddenly get worse" because this is a manipulated market in which we find ourselves. But I've been thinking things would get worse for years so don't trust me on anything.

Looks like we are going to get a break for the next 3 1/2 months. The fed is going to cover the govt. debt until they look at it on Sept. 2nd, '13. http://rt.com/business/us-debt-ceiling-suspended--510/

I'd say the US Empire failing chart will continue it's current pattern at least 'till then unless something really bad happens (EMERGENCY) in the mean time. Kinda takes the anxiety down a notch or two.

I was reading something on zerohedge that dovetails with your comments. Can never rule out another Boston/false flag event though. I'm just trying to keep my head down.
