The Five Horseman of Economic Apocalypse


By Chris Martenson
Executive Summary
What can we expect next, and how will we recognize it?
A series of sharp, interrupted shocks is more likely than a major sudden collapse.
Five game-changing events, what I call The Five Horsemen, will indicate that the rules have changed and a new reality is about to take over:
The First Horseman: New credit growth falls below interest payments
The Second Horseman: The Fed monetizes debt
The Third Horseman: Government deficit spending exceeds 10% of GDP
The Fourth Horseman: The dollar goes down, while interest rates go up
The Fifth (and final) Horseman: US debt becomes denominated in foreign currencies
Severe structural damage has already been inflicted on our economy. As I wrote two weeks ago (May 16, 2009) in It Has Hit the Fan:

If you have been waiting for further confirmation about the direction of the economy, or waiting for a sign that it's now time to get serious about preparing for a future filled with less, this report is written for you.

You are living in the midst of the collapse of western economies, which are moving from a more complicated state to a less complicated one. This is it. Keep a journal, because it's happening right now.

  5. It's better than being a slave to the juice. Would you rather see Mr. Coming depression's hands dripping with blood - supporting and paying for illegal juice taxes, juice wars and juice murder, juice lies and thievery?

    Thanks Mr. Coming Depression, for running an honest business. That's why I adore you so much.

  7. It figures the scumbags at JP Morgan Chase would be tied into the poisonous Pharms.

  10. As reported on http://econochristian.com

    The Swiss private bank Wegelin published 2 days ago (NZZ),that the public should get rid of ALL U.S-positions. If such a bank with such a good reputation is giving this alert, then it likely means that something really horrible is on the way.
