@AnonymousCoder,

Armstrong asks if you could please stop decorating his name into a wikipedia link:


Wikipedia is a professional propaganda organization that allows fakes news and outright illegal propaganda to dominate the internet.
Most schools no longer accept Wikipedia as a valid source for citation in universities.
The only areas where Wikipedia may be accurate are where the topics have nothing to do with a political agenda.
Where there are any controversial political topics, current events, conspiracy theories,
and biographies of people who are anti-government, then the fake news and outright propaganda dominate the sensitive pages.


Thanks Traxo. I feel flattered. Gives me an opportunity to comment on it. In this case, I think that the Wikipedia is closer to the truth than it is not. That is why I am quoting it.

There are certain guidelines in Wikipedia in a sense that when the article is about a person which applies here, then nothing can be written in that article that does not quote another major source like an article in a news magazine.

And that article must not be on a hate site or a site that is blacklisted such as bitcointalk.org.

If you look at the edit history of the Martin Armstrong article, then you find that perfectly valid facts, simply facts of failed forecasts, were rejected because the forecasts were reported on the Armstrong site BUT the FAILURE was not reported by an accepted source while the evidence is available everywhere.

That is very convincing. So what Armstrong is doing, he is effectively attacking the mainstream media through Wikipedia by extension only. No surprise here because he has an axe to grind with the justice system. The fact that he hits Wikipedia very hard in the process will not give him any points because most people like Wikipedia.

Again, this discredits Martin Armstrong. Whatever this guy is doing in that direction, it is bound to backfire. He has tried it in this forum, and we collectively defeated him every time so he is not posting here any more. Which is ok. Let him post his rubbish on his own site, that is ok.

I am in no way simply pro-establishment, and I can in fact agree with some of Martin Armstrong's points which are well-known otherwise. But he mixes things up and uses cherry-picking to hide is own agenda. He is very much like the pot calling the kettle black.


Martin Armstrong is a charlatan, and he spent 11 years in jail for a reason.

How to copy Socrates Private Blog Text

What about just using print screen? Cool

But it's strange that gold will be going down as well in that kind of situation.

Illiquidity causes deflation in everything; see gold in 2008.

Not advisable, some of the haters here would love to report you and Armstrong probably has a team of lawyers to deal with copyright infringements, just a thought. Really enjoy the constructive contributions, Armstrong has made some very good calls over the years, but only a fool believes all things, he is the most accurate by far, but not infallible. Only Gods word is that.



 Cheesy

Martin Armstrong is probably the worst person of all times when it comes to practicing copyright infringement. His associates are best advised not to act on such infringements. Let sleeping dogs lie!

Apart from that, how do you want to build a history of reports for back testing if you don't copy them, in clear text of course.

Don't worry. This site is full of copies, and as far as I know, nothing has ever happened.

And the guy is broke. No way he can afford to go down this rabbit hole.

Sure the markets are getting pumped higher. By WHAT that is the question. Are we getting a sharp decline / correction after that? I am not convinced we will as Martin Armstrong "predicts" just because it has been moving higher. What we need for a sharp decline is something like last time when Hillary called for the end of civility.

That is what it was. Not because the market was overbought. It wasn't even a correction because the price bounced back sharply after that. Martin Armstrong doesn't have a point. He did not even make that point as we can see here. It is your interpretation. Think about it. He is a con artist and he plays games with your mind.


I do not agree. If you say the DOW can go to 30K around January 18th then that is quite a statement (after the run we have seen already).
To say that it's bullocks before it happens, just because Armstrong is saying it, is no argument IMO.  
Armstrong has been very wrong on many occassions but he has also some interesting points and insights, otherwise there would not have been 338 pages writen about him here.

But I can see the markets going into a big top in the coming weeks. Looks like the markets are getting pumped into year-end.
But the macro numbers are definitely not improving. At some point something has to break. So Armstrong might have a good point.
I have been profiting from this in the last few weeks, and still keep my positions on now. I will probably start selling early January and/or use options to play a possible downturn.

How to copy Socrates Private Blog Text

Socrates is designed to prevent copying the report contents to the clipboard.

Obviously, this is not helpful in case you want to build a track record. You need to copy the text to archive it.

There are two ways to do it:

1) Save the entire page

2) View the source code of the page in your browser, copy the text part and remove the HTML tags and save the raw content as text file. I prefer this option because a text file or text snippet is easier to manage.

Or use the Windows Snipping Tool, very easy.

Pulling out and emphasising some of the content from a link posted above about the British elections. The below is from Nov 2019:

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/britain/the-coming-british-elections/

Where MA explains:

As we can see from the chart... Labour and the Conservatives are declining and there is a rise in both the Liberal Dems and “other” against the establishment... This is part of the global trend... against established political parties everywhere.

There is a trend underway that is bigger than most suspect. I know Nigel has no designs on being Prime Minister. However, fate will determine the roll of the dice. Nigel may end up in a position he did not wish to be in.

We will try to refine the models to do a proper forecast. Keep in mind that the “other” category is due for a strong showing and this will most likely be Nigel’s party. Also keep in mind that his Brexit Party does not hold any seats in Parliament at this time. That will change.


Dissecting this:
• Socrates was wrong, despite MA's claims it is never wrong and predicts things "to the day"
• Careful use of words in case the fantasy "supercomputer" (aka MA's opinion) is wrong, with the comment "we will try to refine the models to do a proper forecast"
• His writing blends in opinions with alleged Socrates "predictions", making it even more ambiguous over what are MAs thoughts and what are machine-driven "forecasts"
• But that still doesn't change anything, where he was fundamentally wrong about everything in this article:
  ▪ The established party (Cons) had one of their best and most historic showings in a General Election
  ▪ Brexit Party didn't win a single seat in Parliament and actually did worse than the lowly Green Party (based on British FPTP rules)
  ▪ LibDems lost a seat, while Other parties gained only two; the SNP had their best results ever
  ▪ Farage was barely featured in the GE as the focus turned to Labour, Cons, Lib Dems and SNP
  ▪ On that note, why did MA/Socrates NOT mention anything about the SNP or how their strong run in the GE (why didn't Socrates "predict" this?) has seen renewed calls for Scottish independence, which is also a slow burning tinderbox in the future of the UK, and a historic event should it ever happen. Arguably it would be bigger than leaving the EU, which has only existed since 1992, and the EEC since 1973, while the United Kingdom has been the most successful unification of countries in modern history and dates back to 1707...


Lol, and what is Armstrong saying in his blogpost today: He all predicted it!

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/britain/british-elections-are-a-warning-to-democrats/

Quote
British Elections are a Warning to Democrats
Blog/BRITAIN
Posted Dec 16, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

Here is the chart showing the Labour Party’s devastation. They have been sent back to the Great Depression levels of the 1930s. Britain’s election has been a confirmation of our computer’s forecasts and as you can see the Labour Party made new lows.

That's not wat Armstrong said earlier. He said that both establisment parties were going down the tubes. Instead of apologizing for his bad forecast, he doubles down on how great he forecasted it all. And NOT a word about Farage and the Brexit Party in the whole blogpost, while his November blogpost he suggested Brexit Party would be doing great and Farage could even become prime minister...

Quote
Already in Britain, the youth have been rioting using the same nonsense chanting “Not My Prime Minister.” We are witnessing the death of Democracy. Either they win, or they refuse to accept the results of an election.

Again a severe overdramatized statement from Armstrong. There were minor protests by mostly extreme left Antifa, but not on a grand scale by the British public (like the Yellow vests in France) or politicians that refused the election results, and these Antifa people always protest and riot, nothing new or surprising or even a real danger to democracy since Antifa is not big in the UK.

So we are lead to believe that Martin Armstrong has institutional clients. There is no evidence of that.

Given Martin Armstrong's track record which is extremely negative, no institution would even consider his services. There is no reference to any clients on his corporate web page AE Global Solutions, Inc. which has at this time an expired security certificate.

Apart from that, he simply does not have enough resources to serve institutional clients. Not enough resources to even to get Socrates out of the bug stage after years as evidenced by the banner on it:

Thank you for visiting Ask-Socrates.com. We are in the process of updating our site, migrating data, and transitioning to a new infrastructure.
You may experience delays and discrepancies during this time. We appreciate your patience and understanding.


At best, the Institutional Clients myth and the USD5,500 Bond Bubble Report which nobody is ever going to buy, is a ploy, a facade.

Perhaps so as to make his potential Socrates clients feel good that they save themselves a lot of money when they buy the Socrates trash which for years nobody in this blog has been able to prove to be effective.

People have asked me what's wrong with his guy, why does he have to lie about everything? A long time ago I didn't quite see it that way but the more I look, the more I find that it is his way of life.

Ah digilab, possibly you missed Marty claiming he was correct on the UK election which is completely false if you would only read his own posts that have been posted, just one in a long line of claiming he is corrrect when he is in fact completely wrong but hey don't let the facts get in the way whatever you do.

Regarding buying his book you would probably be better served praying and giving the money for the book to someone who really needs it....


failing that you could always invest in a suppository Cheesy Grin Roll Eyes

usd5,500 for the bond bubble report  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  you can't help but chuckle

here is my 5,500's worth then.    The long bond made a failed low attempt in yield as it tried to break the previous low set a couple of years earlier, if it passes halfway back up to the previous highs which will also break a downtrend line in the process then odds shift to those long the long bond being on the wrong side of the trade so we should see a fast move up in yields and down in bonds as they reposition and get out of the way. The failed new high or low is the signal the market is reversing quicker than expected. Watch the monthly pivot for the springboard effect.

Ok please send a discounted 5000k to me asap and I will send you my new book free of charge Roll Eyes

Bashing Socrates and Armstrong continues with the same intensity. Who cares, whatever, at least prove yourself useful a bit, and if possible share his latest writings on the private blog?
Waiting for his book to become available on Amazon.
