SideNote: Celente knows what he is talking about; he touches on a few points I've been pointing out for many yrs. And many folks who don't live in the U.S. can't see 't see pass their nose to view the BIGGER picture. The crooks (within U.S. Gov) who are purposely helping to undermine the American economic power, so the communist will be able to finally move forward to rule the world. The USA has been standing in the way of the communist plan for many decades now. And they smell blood. War with the communist will happen soon. The final battle for ultimate control of the world. Before that war happens, I still believe the U.N. will hold a world embargo against the U.S., dropping the iron curtain around the U.S. so they can't trade with no one. Thereby helping the U.S. economy to crumble, so the communist countries will be able to move quickly to take over the U.S. natural resources, (Alaska) which is true wealth, and divide up the country between themselves. THE GRIM REALITY

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gerald Celente says the trade war President Trump is starting against China must be fought for America to survive. Celente explains,

“We have lost 3.5 million jobs (to China).  Some 70,000 manufacturing plants have closed.  Why would anybody be fighting Trump to do a reversal of us being in a merchandise trade deficit of $365 billion?  Tell me any two people that would do business with each other and one side takes a huge loss and keeps taking it...

So, why would people argue and fight and bring down the markets because Trump wants to bring back jobs and readjust a trade deficit that, by any standard, is destroying the nation?” 

Who’s to blame for the lopsided trade deficits destroying the middle class of America? Look no further than the politicians and corporations buying them off.  Celente charges,

“They sold us out.  The European companies and the American companies sold us out, and the people fighting Trump are also the big retailers because they’ve got their slave labor making their stuff over there.  They bring it back here and mark up the price, and they make more money.  If they have to pay our people to do that work, they have to pay them a living wage and they can’t make enough profit.  That’s who is fighting us...

You go back to our top trend in 2017, and it was China was going to be the leader in AI (artificial intelligence) now and beyond, and that is exactly what happened.  All the corporations have sold us out. . . .The murderers and the thieves sold out America.”

Celente thinks the odds are there will not be a financial crash in 2018 “because they are repatriating all that dough from overseas at a very low tax rate and because of the tax cuts from 35% to 21%. These are the facts.  In the first three months of this year, there have been more stock buybacks and mergers and acquisitions activity than ever before in this short period of time because of all that cheap money going back into the corporations.  That’s what’s keeping the markets up.”
