Eric wrote this article while sitting at his desk in 1997, staring out the window gazing upon the San Jacinto Mountains in Indian Wells Ca. God gave Eric a vision for what was to come in the future of our country. Read with amazement the accuracy of the vision and get ahead of the curve as we are only half way through the events to come. Eric had his entire client base load up on gold at under $300 an ounce (to be stored in their homes in a safe), he steered them into commodities, had them pay off their mortgages and eliminated all credit card debt as a result of this vision. He also saw that the only way to stop this coming economic catharsis was for Americans to save more. He launched www.savedaily.com and www.save252.com in 1999 and 2005 respectively in pursuit of creating solutions to this coming disaster. fall-of-capitalism-092319971

The US Treasury market will be the mother of all bubbles!!! We have seen the tsunami of liquidity that has flooded the world financial markets over the last couple of decades hop scotch from the stock market to the real estate market/derivative market and then to the commodity/gold market(s). But none of these bubbles are even a drop in the bucket compared to the bubble created by the Federal Reserve and Treasury over the past three years. Without going into a long diatribe with regard to the what, where, when, why and how; suffice it to say that anybody caught on the intermediate/long end of the market will be holding the equivalent to what the market calls “zero coupon bonds’ (bonds bought and extreme discounts which mature at par in the future).
If you are a greedy speculator who could give a rip about our country and want to reap profits beyond your wildest dreams, then short as many treasury bonds as you can on margin, with the opportunity to buy them back at penny’s on the dollar within the next 24 to 36 months. Make sure you can carry the trade and pay the margin expense. But rest assured, this will be a blood bath unlike anything the markets have ever seen. And people who thought they owned the safest investment in the world will learn the hard way that irresponsible fiscal and monetary policy of a government, regardless of its size can have a devastating and lethal impact on its lenders.
In the end, maybe they deserve it. How does one come to believe that a country with 12 trillion in debt should pay 0% interest on its debt??? As an old friend of mine once said…thinking so does not make it so!
