Best Financial Markets Analysis Article Steep fall. Too steep for comfort. Implies that volumes of dry goods being shipped, world-wide, is contracting sharply. Might bounce from here but I don’t like that angle of decline. Could just as easily halve as rise.

If this continues, it’s only a matter of time before already skittish investors start to jump ship (equities) and/or jump into the life rafts (gold).

So, the question is: What will the authorities do? Not many options left. War? There seem to be two emerging candidates, viz Middle East and Korea.

What would you do if you were Obama? Sees to me that he (and Rudd in Australia) are floundering around. They’re talking louder and with more confidence but it smells like bullshit to me. Which country will fall next? Spain? See fourth chart below.

Some would argue that this must be buying time. Maybe it is but I can’t see it.

Once in a while a book comes along that ‘nails’ the issues of our times. Brian Bloom has demonstrated an uncanny ability to predict world events, sometimes even before they are on the media radar. First he predicted the world financial crisis and its timing, then the increasing controversies regarding the causes of climate change. Next will be a dawning understanding that humanity must embrace radically new thought paradigms with regard to energy, or face extinction.

Via the medium of its lighthearted and entertaining storyline, Beyond Neanderthal highlights the common links between Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Taoism and draws attention to an alternative energy source known to the Ancients. How was this common knowledge lost? Have ego and testosterone befuddled our thought processes? The Muslim population is now approaching 1.6 billion across the planet. The clash of civilizations between Judeo-Christians and Muslims is heightening. Is there a peaceful way to diffuse this situation or will ego and testosterone get in the way of that too? Beyond Neanderthal makes the case for a possible way forward on both the energy and the clash of civilizations fronts.
