Rising Global Tensions Can Make You Big Money

One of the most important aspects of the rising tide of geopolitical disruptions — as spelled out by the research I have done on war cycles — is how they are impacting the world’s financial markets.

As I’ve discussed many times in the past, they are changing everything you thought you knew about investing.

Consider the U.S. property markets, which have already recovered from their lows quite nicely — even as mortgage rates have stabilized and started moving higher.

Consider how the Chinese and Europeans, as well as the Canadians, are now the biggest foreign buyers of U.S. real estate, which is helping to support that sector.

Consider that recently, a Chinese-led investor group announced it would buy the Chicago Stock Exchange.

Or that there have already been 82 Chinese outbound mergers-and-acquisitions deals announced this year, amounting to $73 billion in value, according to Dealogic. That’s up from 55 deals worth $6.2 billion in the same period last year.

Or consider gold, which is now nearly 16 percent above its bear market low of last December, moving up right on schedule, even though the U.S. dollar also remains strong.

Or the U.S. stock markets, whose bear market correction is continually being supported by foreign capital inflows.

You are going to see and hear more about foreign-capital inflows in the months and years ahead. Inflows that will shock you and cause wild moves in markets that defy logic.

Moves that dumbfound most U.S. analysts, especially those — the majority of them — who still focus merely on the U.S. economy and who ignore what’s happening on a global basis.

Gold will rise with a stronger dollar.

Gold will rise with a stronger dollar. Commodity prices in general will soon bottom and head higher, even though the global economy remains lackluster at best. Oil, for instance, has already bottomed, again right on cue with my forecasts.

Equity markets and property prices will increase with rising interest rates.

So what then is the common denominator behind these market moves?

What’s the fuel that is causing the linkages between them to change, wreaking havoc on old rules of thumb and ushering in new relationships between markets, between economic data and logic …

Creating forces that you must grasp to truly protect and grow your wealth?

It’s geopolitics and international capital flows. Reasons:

Today, we live in a world where governments are at war with each other. Propaganda wars. Trade wars. Currency wars.

Today, we live in a world where governments are getting ready to reignite “hot” wars: Russia/Ukraine. China/Japan. Israel/Gaza.  Then, there’s ISIS and its rampage in the Middle East.

And today, we also live in a world where the bankrupt governments of the West are waging wars against their very own citizens, via tax hikes, confiscatory schemes, and capital controls.

All of this is causing capital in nearly every corner of the globe to take flight, leaving risky countries and investments and heading toward safer shores.

For many months now. I have told you that those capital flows are pointing directly toward the United States. Savvy European investors are moving their investments out of Europe in droves.

Middle Eastern money is also coming to our shores. Savvy Chinese investors are investing in the Unites States hand over fist, and especially in U.S. property markets.

My view: Based on how the war cycles are ramping up for another five years and how they do not show any relief until 2020, capital is likely to continue to stampede into U.S. investments.

Reason: Despite our country’s problems, we remain one of the safest countries on the planet, with the most open, liquid and diverse markets in the world.

My words for you: Follow the money going forward. The international capital flows. They are the single biggest key to protecting and growing your wealth now and for many moons to come.

Best wishes,

Larry

    Hi Larry,

    I have been a real wealth member for many years now….. But I will not bother sending questions anymore… you never answer them….. So please stop asking to sent questions or comments when you never answer mine and the ones you do answer .,…..
    you keep repeating the same answers to similar questions…

    apart from that you’re doing ok…

    What is you prediction for oil and copper over the next 6 / 12 months as both have bottomed and are ready for their next move up. Anyone can predict that copper will go to $4.00 + or oil will exceed $60.00 … The real question is when, and how fast

    Also it seems that your endorsement of the new currency experts @ Weiss are drafting behind your reputation to generate their own subscribers yet they appear to be on the opposite side of you on many predictions as does Mike … I get that Weiss will be able to publish, 2 years down the road, when everything either goes up or down, that one of his team predicted it, and can publish the prediction … Question … Will he also publish the ones that predicted the exact opposite … Am a believer in your position, but am starting to think the “Weiss money making machine” has their interest at the forefront … IMO

    This morning, Larry observes: “”Consider the U.S. property markets, which have already recovered from their lows quite nicely — even as mortgage rates have stabilized and started moving higher.””

    This SAME morning, ZeroHedge.com shares with us: “”Against expectations of a 4.4% drop, New home sales collapsed by 9.2% in January. This is the biggest January drop since 2009 dragging the SAAR to 494k (back at December 2014 levels).

    Worse still, home prices tumbled – from $295,800 to $278,000 (lowest since April 2014), and down 4.5% year-over-year as it appears the inventory fears have disappeared with months-supply surging from 5.1 to 5.8.
    If this converges, we have a major problem.”””

    Once again, Larry somehow claims to be able to concoct a Square that is round, or a Circle that has four corners.

    I have heard many of these arguments before. While these phenomenon will effect stock prices for a while, good old fashioned fundamentals are like gravity, eventually they will rule the day. The only question is how long will this illusion last, Will it last the many years necessary for fundamentals to catch up and match the stock prices or will it fall short and we have a crash. I have heard all of these comments before about how the rules of economics have changed. Looking back at previous crashes, my money is on a massive crash or one or more serious corrections.

    Larry has been calling for another leg down in the market, yet he says that oil has bottomed. More times than not in the last few weeks, oil and the market are tied at the hip. If oil falls, so does the market. If oil is up, usually the market is up. How is the market going to go down as he predicts with his call for oil to go up?

    Reply

  17. GK February 24, 2016

    Go back to last week and the week before, you will find that he recommended gold probably bottomed when it held 1190. Oil would bottom out at 25 he repeated several times last year, which it did this year, and he confirmed weeks ago.

    Reply

    • Larry King February 24, 2016

      No he didn’t. Even in his newsflash yesterday he confirmed he missed this last run in gold to a member in the Q&A.

      And he called a bottom in oil, then it went lower 2-4 weeks later.

      But Larry knows most don’t check this stuff that’s why he gets away with being “right as rain? LOL!

    Uncharted Waters! VIX gone wild. No two cycles are exactly the same. But you must be doing something right since RWR had an 18 percent take last year. Political shifts and election years are often times of challenging markets. Customary Fall bottoms are not foreseen this year? How come set stop are recommended and trailing stops are not? Is there a brokerage squeeze taking place? Thanks for the flash alert this week. This is understandably a time of caution.

    Reply

  20. Chuck Burton February 24, 2016

    In his Flash Alert, yesterday, Larry said nothing about oil, but he did predict a sharp, tradable jump in gold, followed by a fall to a bottom in June. Final bottom? He didn’t say. I’ve been following the 2 1/2 year down channel, which gold recently overshot the top of, before retreating into the channel. I see that it is again pricking the top of the channel this morning. If it firmly violates that top line and successfully retests it, that would fit with Larry’s tradable jump. He talks about resistance at 1386, perhaps to precede the June bottom. There is another, probably weak, downtrend (about paralleling the recent channel) from the 2011 and 2012 peaks. Gold would need to break that before really taking off.

    • Larry King February 24, 2016

      Did he say the bottom is so close he can taste it?

      Then finish off by saying he’s right as rain, even though he’s not?

      Chuck,

      Larry did mention oil yesterday in his flash alert ” Let’s talk oil now: It’s had a very smart rally again, bringing the nearby futures contract (April contract) to as high as $33.84 yesterday, before settling back down to the current $33.20 level.

      All signals remain on track for the forecast rally I showed you in my timing chart, repeated here.”
      But just like oil and everything else you will almost always need a double bottom before taking off to the upside.
      We already got it in Oil, Nat Gas, And now we need it in Gold and Silver.
      What are the charts telling you in the Markets ( Dow, S&P, Etc.). I do not think we have had a Double Bottom yet? So we must have a Retest of the Lows Before heading to the Upside. What do you think about OIL going Higher and the Markets going lower?
      So far I have been fighting this tend in a losing battle, But I hope this will change soon.

      Good Luck and Happy Trading!

    Larry’s statement in this article “Or consider gold, which is now nearly 16 percent above its bear market low of last December, moving up right on schedule, even though the U.S. dollar also remains strong.” is another indication of his double speak. First of all if gold moved according to his or any schedule, we would all be rich. My father had an old expression that went “If your so smart why aren’t you rich?” … I can’t fault Larry for wanting to be rich, however, he would have you believe he is smart, yet the way he makes his money is by taking yours. One reader suggested that he hoped Larry could be more specific. … Larry, and everyone else on this planet can not be specific … The market will behave the way it wants to and if anything, the culprit currently is good news-bad news and the horrible debt situation causing us investors to get on Larry’s seesaw ride.

    • John T February 24, 2016

      But in last December he wasn’t even talking about that one, the gold price is up about $190 since then. He does not show many charts, nor describes his analysis. I do not follow Larry’s advice, he speaks with forked tongue.

    • JohnLamb February 25, 2016

      Larry pointing directions is better than a lot of other predictors, but he isn’t a medium. We have to take his general predictions and apply some common sense as well as some investigation of our own.
      He did say that gold would be down during December 15 when it would turn. Gold made a nice cup between mid November15 and midJan16. Thereafter it continued upwards. Your decision to buy or not.
      Oil is not only impacted by pure supply and demand. It also has countrie’s policies and needs impacts as well as wars in the regions of the cheapest producers. eg. What would happen if the Sharia Moslems at the East of Saudi revolt and start burning wells? Oil will spike!! What are the chances? About 8 to 10%. That’s better than betting on a number on the roulette table. Would you play? That’s not investment, that’s gambling. If that’s what you want to do, then do it with money you can loose without kveching.
      Otherwise at present stay in money, not bank cash, MONEY as defined by JP. Morgan without counterparty liabilities. Gold, silver, until the world finds its new balance. Companies with positive Balance sheets, companies that supply mundane life sustaining products, bread, flour, tinned foods, personal hygiene products etc. Coke is still selling so is Nestle, and others of that ilk. Do your research, stay away from Monsanto it’s loosing money. Good luck. John.

        I agree w/ you 100%, But this is not the first time Larry has said sell or buy and it does a complete dive or moonshot. I always wait a few days to sell and a few weeks or months to buy when it almost hits his stop/ loss price. Like when he told us last time (couple of weeks ago) to sell half of our gold and silver shares and gold shot up $50 and silver $0.45 cents. Or when he said sell your shorts in Oil in December and in Jan. You could have tripled your money if you held on a few more weeks. Instead we all took a beating cause he said buy UWTI. Or FCX wait until it hits his stop/ loss and then buy you would have doubled you monies. Even if we pay very good money for Super Cycle trader, We have to take his information w/ a grain of salt and use that information and your own gut feeling sometimes to do the exact opposite.

        Good Luck, And Happy Investing!
