2015 Forecast-Manipulation, Depression and War-Gerald Celente




By Greg Hunter
December 28, 2014

Trends researcher Gerald Celente predicts one of his top trends in 2015 will be manipulation–of everything. Celente explains, “It’s the grand manipulation of the markets and the news, and it just keeps spreading. There is manipulation of the gold markets, and we know there is manipulation in the Forex market; we are not making this up. We are talking about $5.3 trillion a day. The markets are rigged. Kramer came out and said the stock market was rigged. We know that the LIBOR market is rigged. That’s the interest rate market. . . . This is not a conspiracy theory. Banks have been fined for “misdeeds.” Misdeeds? They are rigging the show and no heads roll. The whole market, the news, the information is all one rigged game.”

Celente goes on to say, “In our business, trend forecasting is based on the understanding that current events form future trends. So, we take the information we have and analyze it and see how it will play out and what the implications will be. It’s becoming more and more difficult because we’re getting phony information continually. So, whether it has to do with geopolitics, economics or whatever it is, they are cooking the books and spinning lies. So, it is harder and harder to see where some of these things are going. . . . We don’t have capitalism any more. The merger of state and corporate powers is called fascism, and when you are looking at the rigging of the game, it’s called bankism. . . . This thing should have collapsed a long time ago, but they keep making up new rules and a new game. This is nothing more than a central bank confidence game, and you can tie it all back to bankism.”

How long can it go on? Celente says, “All it takes is a shock wave to end the game. You don’t know where it’s going to come from, but the stage is being set for a shock wave. . . . On one end, they can keep the interest rates low. On another end, they can even invent another quantitative easing (money printing) scheme. But on the bigger end, you have volatility in the world commodity markets and geopolitics that could end this scam in a second. . . . All the pieces keep adding up into a very serious economic and geopolitical game changer for 2015.”

Ah- the "Chicken Little" report from Celente. He always has a negative report. Since it hasn't happened for six years now it must be due to manipulation.

manipulation–of everything.

This thing should have collapsed a long time ago,

Depression is what you get when you listen to Celente all the time.

Greg Hunter runs a pretty good web site. It's a good bookmark to keep around.

The collapse is so over-due that we have no idea "when", but it will be really ugly.

There's literally no reason to believe this, other than faith. Relative to basically every nation on Earth, America is doing quite well. And this is in spite of a nearly 16 years of abhorrent leadership from the White House. Imagine where we'll be when more states scale back their war on some drugs and the federal government backs off as well. Imagine where we'll be when the Iraq and Afghan wars really do end. Imagine where we'll be when Rand is President and has Republican legislative support necessary to slow the increase in spending, and perhaps lower taxes and regulation.

We'll certainly face setbacks, and the leviathan in Washington won't shrink without a struggle, but we are unquestionably improving as a society. To say otherwise is to ignore how brutish, tribal, violent and hateful life used to be.

I'm just curious why you think interest rates are at 0% if the US is on reasonably sound economic footing? In no way is this me commenting on the video because I didn't even watch it and may agree he just sells screaming fire, but that doesn't mean some of the issues aren't real.

If the economy is too strong (starting to over-heat) then you want to raise interest rates to try to slow it down a bit. Things are better but not to the "overheated" stage.

Ah- the "Chicken Little" report from Celente.

I like Gerald but does anyone ever hold him accountable for his predictions? Anyone who's a fan happen to know? I remember Gary North had me thinking that Y2K was going to be real trouble. Ah, the Art Bell days..

Agreed. An overheated economy has overemployment rather than underemployment. We seem a long way from that.
