    EU Sends Huge Oil Warning That is Spreading To The Rest of The World

    European consumer sentiment is in "free fall", in the European govt's own words. DHL’s CEO warned the world is heading for a quote tipping point – in other words, the race against time. Economic sentiment just crashed. Unemployment in places like Scandinavia has jumped while in the UK job losses have returned alongside the appearance of one of the worse labor market outcomes, the dropout.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That’s exactly what Monetary Metals does.

    New IRS Tax Return Data Shows People are COMPLETELY Out Of Money

    The good news is the IRS is reporting about a 10% rise in average income tax refunds. However, the initial data is showing most Americans are just not spending the windfall. Understandably, they’re either saving the money or more often paying down debt. Those are certainly positive in their own way, helping struggling taxpayers repair their own fiscal balance sheets after years of limited income growth and jobs, but from the broader economic perspective it’s not what was hoped.   Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis -------------------------------------------------------In a world where markets swing on every headline, focus matters.

    Oh No… Insurance Companies Are the Biggest Risk to Private Credit

    You know who can’t stop talking about the private credit bust? The big bankers. Jamie Dimon is constantly in the media almost too happy to share his negative thoughts. Recently Goldman Sach’s David Solomon reminded everyone the credit cycle has not been repealed. But you know who hasn’t said a word? Life insurance execs. The companies that write retirement annuities. 2008 was about big banks. 2026 is about big insurance.   Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis ----------------------------------------------------------- What is a Eurodollar University membership?

    China Is Making a DESPERATE Move to Save Its $60 Trillion Crisis

    Chinese banks are now trapped which is why China has finally entered an era of full-blown extend and pretend. It’s been on the edge of it for some time, but recent data and information out of the country show the banking sector has crossed that threshold into the low-rate trap which has squeezed profitability and left banks to bleed cash. So, more grim lending and credit data from China’s central bank just confirms everything including the trap having been sprung.     Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That’s exactly what Monetary Metals does.
