BDI (BALTIC DRY INDEX)

Does the Baltic Dry Index revile an undeniable truth?

It has been reported that the BDI is a great indicator of world trade and recessions perhaps a depression according to the chart below of the Global commodities over lapping the BDI a different story is reviled and that truth is an ugly truth we as people will need to swallow willingly. Below is an article from Zero Hedge

(this is happening live) As markets go up and down the reason for a market to bottom out is to flush toxic polluted currency or businesses out and healthy investors/business into the Market as in a mania phase everyone will e telling you investment advise and there is over leverage credit funny money eventually becomes euphoric and eventually people come to their senses please do not be to your senses too late or you will feel a painful regret.

"The unintended consequences of a money-printed, credit-fueled, mal-investment-boom in commodities (prices - as opposed to physical demand per se) [7] and the downstream signals that sent to any and all industries are starting to bite. The Baltic Dry Index has plunged once again to new record lows and the collapse of the non-financialized 'clean' indicator of the imbalances between global trade demand and freight transport supply has the real-world effects are starting to be felt, as Reuters reports [8] the third dry-bulk shipper this month has filed for bankruptcy... in what shippers call "the worst market conditions since the '80s."

2015 a dry year (USA)

Through out the years past and the years ahead we see tough growing conditions generally for the United States Historically is dry things are going back to the way they are suppose to be

Save in what you want

If we save our money in a bank what is it that we are saving?

If we save our money in clothing what is it we are saving?

If we save our money in paper currency what is it we are saving?

If we save our money in Precious metals what are we saving?

if we understand clothing, paper, silk, cotton, corn, oil and gas deteriorate over time then is this a secure asset?

If we understand putting currency in a bank means we can only have control of this when they are open and it is at the mercy of the banks and we have less control of our money is this a good decision?

If we Aquried precious metals however would this then allow us to control our money hold it in something that will not deteriorate overtime  and still hold it's value.

Do you believe that if something was already written and we lived through it and our belief system was challenged would you have the guts to over come the adversity to stick it through, until you seen valid results.

Deflate to Inflate "Check the pulse"

Since we are entering a time period in deflation, (To my understanding) it means there is less cash flow between individuals for transactions or lack there of credit established to make future transactions.

What this means is there is the beginnings of less credit available to the public for home loans car loans school loans and over all consumer credit

As the average people (Middle Class) have less and less due to increased taxes decreased incomes silent inflation ETC

As we currently check the beat of the systems it is said that the current status of the American economy is loosing ground we are loosing battles and losing influence. the American Gov. is loosing a lot as they are the bully in the school yard The rest of the wold has had enough -

*Factors China is waiting to release their gold holdings
*Russia is selling Treasury Bonds sided with china (They are both BRICS nations)
* The copper price has shaken hands with lows not seen since 2010 & 2008 - 2009
* The 10 year treasury note yields are at all time lows 1.66%
* GOV. to increase wages = increased tax revenue not take home salary
* Raise = to accommodate cost of living increase nothing more.
* tax increases on gasoline * diesel will influence costs of goods not gasoline.
* Baltic Dry index at all time lows for the month of January not seen since 1955. This = the trade and activity of dry good shipped & traded throughout the globe.
* Derivatives marked are heating up and the trade for dollars has also heated up this makes the Dollar look more as a safe haven however what is simply happening is the activity for dollars has increased and the demand has decreased as dollars are exchanged for hard assets while the entire globe wakes up to the fact they do not want to settle in dollars but a real asset of internist value as dollars no longer hold value due to the unlimited production/creation of currency.

Retail Migration

With the continued closures of large retail market spaces. 

2015 is the year of closing closings of many retail she's we have come to learn and grow it appears there is an emergence of custom clothing and online tailoring and these large companies forgot they can do this direct to consumer for a great deal we now have many retailers offer a complete outfit online sent to your door once a month

Online retailing is going to get it's biggest jump this season however that doesn't alway mean great profits

It means more shoppers on a budget that probably cannot drive.

Arms Of Silver

It is prophetically said that the arms of silver will over come the arms of gold heck why argue with god or do so suit yourself don't matter to me.

At any rate what matters is our own health wealth and quality of life this is the year of consolidation stroked consolidation of the retail markets in fact people are limited on driving rent income and purchasing power  we are going back to basics

Because we need to as a race and as a family.

What does that even mean = to me the essence of the ability to appreciate time presence of others and true connection to one another.

the trends we have seen before are reflections as we have gone through a collapse of oil in 2008 so we are gaining through a collapse in oil again just not as server however maybe is is as we stated above.

the reality is people have less business has more a consolidation of wealth is rearing it's ugly head = less jobs more debt less income.

however the beginning confirmation shows people want silver over old 84 times as much silver compared to gold 

this should speak volumes to you.it's not an over night success yet it is a life time of achievement invest hold invest hold invest hold do so in what you believe in nothing else nothing anyone else says only as you say :)
