Robert Prechter on Capital Account

Robert Prechter was interviewed earlier today on Capital Account, available on YouTube:

The main takeaway beyond Prechter's usual themes is that the DSI on US bonds has it 97%, and that Prechter predicts that this is the end of the more than 30 years long bull market in treasuries.

I, too, believe we've hit at least a short term top on treasuries, and will look to short them for a short-term trade. But looking back at Japan, I wouldn't bet the farm that the top is in, and that the bull market is over. I'd actually think that the bull market can last a few more years. As usual, I will allow myself to change this forecast along with the market action.

90-min Presentation by Robert Prechter at the World Futurist Society

Robert Prechter's address to World Future Society's annual conference in July 2010.

The topic of "The Future" has always fascinated humanity. But results consistently show that the practice of Futurism is deeply flawed. What is the error in the usual approach, and is there a better alternative? In July 2010, Robert Prechter addressed the World Future Society's annual conference in Boston and presented a whole new way for futurists to apply their craft.

Debt Aversion, Deflationary Mood Spreads to CEOs — 100 Business Leaders To Boycott Campaign Donations Until Congress Finds a Solution to the Growing Debt

In a turn of event that hyperinflationists will not believe to in the realm of the possible, it is now the CEOs of the biggest american firm to ask the US Government to find a solution to the growing debt issue, and they have decided to stop all campaign donations until this happens.

Of course, I do not believe that the politicians will really listen to these guys, or worse, to honor any pledge they would make — they won't do anything unless forced by the market. But it shows the growing debt aversion that grows with a negative social mood and creates a debt-deflationary cycle.

(Bloomberg) — Starbucks Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz said more than 100 business leaders have joined his pledge to boycott U.S. political campaign donations. 

AOL CEO Tim Armstrong, J.C. Penney Co. CEO Myron Ullman, Whole Foods Market Inc. Co-CEO Walter Robb and others have agreed to accelerate hiring and halt campaign giving to incumbents in Washington until Congress finds a solution to the nation’s growing debt, Starbucks said in an e-mailed statement. 

Schultz is taking his campaign to the Internet and to Facebook today with the creation of Upward Spiral, “a platform for action inspired by the letter to America from Howard Schultz,” according to the website. 

Last week, Schultz, 58, sent an e-mail to fellow CEOs and business leaders urging them to boycott donating to political campaigns. The Starbucks head has previously addressed issues including the high price of coffee, which he says is fueled by market speculation.

It seems to me like after being so wrong for so long, Robert Prechter will be right in the end, with an amazing accuracy in the forecasts of the events as they unfold. He foresaw all this 10 years ago. Chapeau Bas!

Robert Prechter interview on Yorba Radio

Yorba Radio - 3nd of August. The guest list seems to be pretty exciting for a brand new trading internet radio that has appeared.

Here's an amazing quote from the introduction: "You're very kind of calling me a Legend. I think I would call myself a former legend. But I'm working my way back."

An interview that starts like this deserves to be listened to. It's a very short interview, yet an interesting one. And Bob promised to get back on the show after his holidays.

Robert Prechter on GoldSeek Radio

Robert Prechter was interviewed on GoldSeek Radio yesterday (link to MP3). Bob discusses the following points:

• The reason why the market is going down is that sentiment was too extreme — nothing to do with the US debt deal or any other news. All 6 major categories of commentators and investors were extreme all together at the same time.
• What will happen next? We are on the cusp of the next great deflationary leg.
• The only way out [of the trillions of dollars of debt] is default. Exactly like the 1930s, but on a Grand Super Cycle Peaking Process.
• You need cash, not in the bank, but in a vault, where you know it will be available when banks collapse. And bags of silver coins in case.
• Potential for social unrest. Every major was over the past 300 years has been associated with negative social mood and during major bear markets.
• He thinks that we are at a period of time equivalent to 1937 where people are partying for the recovery, while the WWII was just months away.
