THE FUTURE.....truly no one is prepared

THINGS OF THE YEAR OF THE NINE

1.Banking/Market Holiday(march is one of my favorites)
probably stemming from the stress test and a margin call scenario involving cdo's
2.Lock Limit down on futures...more than once
3."Terrorist attacks" here and or abroad....France Italy and Germany looking like likely targets
4.Failure/Bankruptcy of many states monetarily...in the form of failed municipal bond auctions
and disruption of many vital state funded services
5. Failed federal government treasury bond auctions this year
6. A massive margin call of the tarp and other types of loans given to financial institutions and the like thereby insuring their demise of sovereignty as corporations
7. hundreds of bank failures
8.Runs on the "banks" by depositors
9.The insolvency of the FDIC prompting the government to call into action a idea
where they can issue something other than the dollar as the insurance payout
after they have flooded the market with a flood of fiat worthless paper dollars
10.the defualting of various governments on debt obligations of many countries and nations
11.A massive wave of frauds and criminal acts exposed relating to corporations, pensions, market makers, traders, money managers, mutual funds etc etc
12.Numerous downgrades on every conceivable financial entity on the planet
13.A massive wave of Corporate bond defaults
14.General Electric....a zero +/-
15.Bank of America.... a zero +/-
16.Jpmorgan...a zero +/-
17.Morgan Stanley...a zero +/-
just to name a few...
and many more...essentially a record year for bankruptcies personal , corporate and
municipalities...pensions, annuities...hospitals etc etc
18. Corporate...Municipal,,and state Pensions of all kind found to be insovent or massivly underfunded
19.For all intensive purposes 2009 will mark the year of a massive shift in psychology of the "401k" investors...whereby these people will wind up cashing out en mass of their equity investments in the stockmarket and the bond markets and from here on the confidence in the stockmarket and bond markets as a whole will have shifted. This will amrk the total and complete obliteration of the stock markets here and around the world. Peoples confidence
will be shattered and as an investment choice the stockmarket and bond market will not be trusted for many years to come. Most people will cash out and never invest again in these types of investments. The stockmarket as we know it will never be the same...it will be a shadow of its former self
20.the year when trust in the systems all but evaporate
21.Long food lines like last were seen in the Great Depression
22.Massive unemployment upward in real numbers of 33+%
23.An evident battle over the last bastion of state sovereignty
24.Many many retailers....a zero +/-
25.Essentially the nyse becomes a hybrid penny stock exchange
with the suspension of the rules currently on the books for delisting stocks under derress
26.The beginnings of an arab oil embargo on the US specifically
27.Terrorist attacks around the globe..garnering much needed support for the new waves of war...namely the WWWIII scenario
28.Trade tensions regarding many commodities...tarriffs...lawsuits etc
29.Israel(US)(Alies)/ Iran war...probably instigating Russia to military action as well(late 2009)
one of the clues is our deployment into afghanistan..surrounding Iran on all fronts now
30.Massive protests and then rioting starting in California
31.Martial Law in some places in US ...California being the first
32.Shortages of vital commodities and food stuffs due to currency/trade type reasons
33.The beginning of the next massive dollar devaluation...and all paper currencies devaluation
a wave of inflationary pressures in relation too purchasing power of paper currencies
34The mainstream introduction of the plan for new currencies or the competing currencies
most likely backed by a basket of widely used and tradable goods or commodities
by not just our country but several...
35.A grassroots uprising of the american people supporting and defending the Constitution of the United States of America...An uprising of pro Constitutionalists
36.A growing push for more securuty measures and controls especially via the internet...??
37.Failures of brokerage houses and sipc bailouts
38. A massive increase in inner city crime and gang related activity
yadda yadda yadda
and more....but thats enough for now
tomorrow 03/02/09 is a 144 signature on the stock exchange
