Wayne Allyn Root joined us for an interesting discussion of the President's first State of the Union Address. He believes that the Dems have totally lost it. What they have is Trump Derangement Syndrome on steroids. They are no longer able to look objectively at anything. The country is doing better and yet they're livid. Who's side are they on anyway? They're fighting the battle after they've lost the war. They're similar to those Japanese soldiers who were abandoned on small islands, only to find out 20 years later that the war was over. What will it take to make the Democratic Party great again?

David Erfle is following his dream by publishing JuniorMinerJunky.com. He didn't start out being a mining stock analyst, rather it was something he fell into. Last year he was up 145%. He believes that this year is going to be even better. The metals markets are looking up and so are interest rates and business lending. Historically, these have been good indicators for the future price of gold. Regardless, David will still be working away looking for those undervalued gems that are ready to take off.

Barring a Black Swan event Angela Sloan wouldn't be surprised if the Dow doesn't hit 30,000 this year. She doesn't believe that the tax plan is "baked in" yet and a lot of investors with money on the sidelines are starting to jump in. Americans overall are very optimistic and and that the emotion will keep the market pumping as well as the economic numbers. A "correction" would give us all an even better buying opportunity.

A Black Swan event such as North Korea hitting a "target" with a missile or the powder keg in the middle east blowing a fuse could cause some volatility depending on how President Trump handles the situation. If he "pushes back" to win it will have little impact, but if the President hesitates you will see volatility. President Trump isn't  the type to "hesitate." He will push back to WIN!

If O'Bamacare is "fixed", the Wall is built and Trump can carry out his other goals this market will continue to soar. Angela is EXCITED!!

We come to a point in every boom where you know it's time to exit the merry-go-round. That's when people start saying this time is different. Looks like we're getting there now.

Max Porterfield is CEO President and Director of show sponsor Callinex Mines (CNX-TSX.V). He's got over ten years of experience in natural resources and financial markets. From what we're seeing, higher prices, higher interest rates, signs are pointing to a major bull market in commodities. The price of Zinc has nearly double to $1.60 per pound, which is great news for Callinex. Add to that the increasing resource estimates of their Nash Creek Project and things are really looking up. Max believes that when we look back at this period in time, it will prove to have been a major investor opportunity.

Governor Andy Cuomo has stated his intention to sue the federal government because the tax bill is unfair to high income New Yorkers and other high tax states. It's a losing argument and fails to address these high tax states' abusive, exploitative tax, regulatory and governmental inefficiencies. These states need to look no further than themselves to discover the nature of the problem they face.

John believes that when taking rising personal debt into consideration, the economy barely grew in Q4 of 2017. The savings rate has plunged to near record levels under Trump. The tax cut is also inflationary, interests rates are heading up and the Fed claims to be shrinking its balance sheet. And the dollar is sinking like a stone. If true, there could be major economic trouble ahead.

Michael Stumo was impressed by Trump's performance at Davos. He was also favorably disposed towards Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross's statements about US trade policy. And then right afterwards, tariffs were increased on Chinese solar panels and Korean washing machines. It appears that we finally have a president who is walking the walk on trade.

As our good friend Jason Hartman says, "It's an amazing time to be alive!" The Blockchain is where it's at, but not necessarily in the way you might think. There are applications yet to be written that will revolutionize the way we work, invest, shop, etc. But there's much work to be done and not enough Blockchain developers out there to do it. But our lives are about to really change in a most dramatic fashion. Check out the coverage on the North American Bitcoin Conference. 

Next we discussed Q Anon, the supposed insider who's been keeping much of the blogosphere up till all hours of the night. Do a search on YouTube and find out about it. If it's true, the deep state is about to take a major hit, with people we all know and hate spending long periods of their lives in prison. And Pizzagate is alive and well. 

Finally, will it be curtains for Comrade deBlasio? There's a witness who's claiming he bribed the Comrade. He's so stupid he probably took the money and did a selfie. Let's cross our fingers. If he goes then Andy Cuomo might also be headed for the chopping block.

Matt Nye joined us again. His organization the Republicans Liberty Caucus is going strong. While he doesn’t believe the tax plan was perfect, he’s seeing many positive effects. And the average American hasn’t even seen his first higher paycheck. And no doubt there’s going to be a lot more before it’s over. And look forward to another tax cut after the midterms.

In ten years we've gone full circle. After the crash we were witnessing a deflationary tide come in. What a difference a decade makes. Commodities prices are up. Oil is up. Precious metals are up. And perhaps most importantly interest rates are heading higher. The recently passed tax reform bill is also inflationary. You need to look for alternatives. Secured real estate funds a good alternative. At least until the rates that banks are paying start increasing as well. Let's see when that will happen.

It's no exaggeration to say that everything is going on the blockchain. Any ledger which keeps track of ownership rights and title and extremely well suited for migration to the blockchain. The stock market may be the ultimate killer app. Every day there are many busted stock trades that cannot be completed. In addition, there are many companies who's largest shareholder is state abandoned property funds. Billions of dollars in unclaimed securities, dividends, interest payments and more are sitting there. The blockchain is the ultimate equalizer for small shareholders who often get lost in the shuffle.

2018 Will Be Another Double-Digit Year for the Stock Market. But...


2017 was a banner year for the stock market. The Dow gained over 25 percent, the S&P 500 added about 20 percent, and the Nasdaq nearly 30 percent.1 Looking ahead, David is forecasting another double-digit year for the markets in 2018, but there’s a catch: that double-digit number could come in the form of more gains or big losses. It's still too early to tell.

Millennials prefer a socialist, communist or fascist nation. But Tudor Dixon CEO of Lumen Student News is trying to do something about it by providing unbiased news to America’s middle and high school students.

A recent poll by YouGov finds 58% of millennials would prefer to live in “a socialist, communist or fascist nation rather than a capitalistic one,” the Washington Times reports, with a staggering 44% preferring socialism. “This troubling turn highlights widespread historical illiteracy in American society regarding socialism and the systemic failure of our education system to teach students about the genocide, destruction and misery caused by communism since the Bolshevik Revolution one hundred years ago,” Marion Smith, Executive Director of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, said in a statement. Only two years ago, the same group found 36% of millennials have a positive opinion of socialism - so the trend is troubling, to say the least.

Michael Eastham paints a very upbeat positive picture, but you always need to be aware of the inherent risks in the market. This time isn't going to be different. 

U.S. jobless claims fall to 45-year low
- The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits fell more than expected last week to the lowest level in 45 years, but the decline likely overstated the health of the labor market as data for several states were estimated.

Initial claims for state unemployment benefits dropped 41,000 to a seasonally adjusted 220,000 for the week ended Jan. 13, the lowest level since February 1973, the Labor Department said on Thursday. Claims for the prior week were unrevised.

Economists polled by Reuters had forecast claims falling to 250,000 in the latest week. Claims had increased over the previous four weeks, with economists blaming difficulties adjusting the data for seasonal fluctuations around moving holidays and unseasonably cold weather.

The Labor Department said claims for California, Arkansas, Kentucky, Maine, Hawaii, Virginia and Wyoming were estimated. Government offices were closed on Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday.

It also said claims-taking procedures continued to be disrupted in the Virgin Islands months after they were battered by Hurricanes Irma and Maria, while claims processing in Puerto Rico was still not back to normal.

Last week marked the 150th straight week that claims remained below the 300,000 threshold, which is associated with a strong labor market. That is the longest such stretch since 1970, when the labor market was much smaller.

The labor market is near full employment, with the jobless rate at a 17-year low of 4.1 percent.

Last week, the four-week moving average of initial claims, considered a better measure of labor market trends as it irons out week-to-week volatility, fell 6,250 to 244,500. The claims data covered the survey week for January’s nonfarm payrolls.

The four-week average of claims rose 8,500 between the December and January survey periods, suggesting some moderation in the pace of job growth. Nonfarm payrolls increased by 148,000 in December after surging by 252,000 in November.

Job growth is slowing as the labor market nears full employment. There has been an increase in companies reporting difficulties finding qualified workers. There are about 5.9 million job openings in the country.

In its Beige Book report of anecdotal information on business activity collected from contacts nationwide, the Federal Reserve said on Wednesday that “most districts cited on-going labor market tightness and challenges finding qualified workers across skills and sectors.”

Thursday’s claims report also showed the number of people receiving benefits after an initial week of aid increased 76,000 to 1.95 million in the week ended Jan. 6. The four-week moving average of the so-called continuing claims gained 4,000 to 1.92 million.

Dr. Cliff Gross is leading up a team to develop AR (Augmented Reality) glasses available to all. Unlike the Google Glasses released several years ago, these spectacles will greatly enhance a user's visual experience and ability to interact. And they look pretty darned good too. A number of links to crypto-tokens will make the experience a commercial success as well. The company Lucyd has a large patent portfolio combined with a number of PHD's working non-stop to make it happen.

While attending the North American Bitcoin Conference, we learned that for every developer there are 14 job openings. Now wonder a newly minted Blockchain programmer is pulling down a cool $160k per annum. That's why Jason King jumped in with both feet. He's seeking to massively grow the number of qualified developers. And best of all, student loans are plentiful. This is actually an area where student loans make great economic sense. And veterans are ideally situated to take advantage of the opportunity. Expect a mass influx into the space.

Money & Work Unchainedm started when Charles asked himself: "When we dream of the future of our society, are we hoping for the right things?"

The current conventional-wisdom view of our soon-to-be future is rose-tinted: automation will free millions of people from the drudgery of work, then by taxing the robots doing all the work, we can pay everyone Universal Basic Income (UBI), enabling a life of leisure and artistic pursuit for all. The result: A future of Universal Happiness.

But is this accurate? Is this what UBI is actually capable of doing? More importantly, is this what we want?

And even more importantly: will this “future” be our best future? Will it account for and manage the practicalities of work, money and automation, given the limits of endless growth on a finite planet?

Money and Work Unchained drags the now-popular concept of Universal Basic Income (UBI) from the shadows of Pundit blather into a harsh, illuminating light, and in doing so presents an entirely new view of the future that upends our conventional, foundational, understanding of work and money.

This book lays out a practical pathway that realigns work, money and human fulfillment into a sustainable system that sheds the inequalities and injustices of the status quo in favor of a human-scale way of living.

And – it gives us a future to truly hope for.

Gerald believes that the US has a major problem. The middle class is continuing its descent into oblivion. The big corporations don't care and are accelerating the trend through their unabashed greed. Gerald doesn't see an upside due in large part to the dumbing down of America. Until people are no longer willing to tolerate the situation, it will continue unabated.

Rick Rule joined us today and had some huge news. The wizards of Sprott have been working overtime to bring us a gold-backed/convertible crypto currency. Imagine taking your token and exchanging it for gold! The physical gold will be stored by the Royal Mint of Canada. As Rick likes to say, "Imagine your gold being protected by NATO." There's going to be a tremendous add-on market for ancillary services once the currency is widely excepted and distributed. And perhaps the reason for precious metal ETF's will diminish or even disappear. And to think it's all going to start within a week to 10 days. Now that's change you can believe in!
