 former cabinet member making an immunity deal to provide testimony is not good news for any sitting president. Trump’s feet are sinking into the soft mud in the Washington, DC, swamp that he had vowed to drain. Flynn was a close confidant of the president over the last two years so it will feel like a stab in the back from his one-time very close friend. How appropriate since it is the Ides of March when Julius Caesar was betrayed even by his close friend Brutus. Caesar asked his friend, “Et tu, Brute (you too, Brutus?)?” Trump is asking, “Et tu, Flynn?”

A poll released by WFC and Gallup indicates investor optimism at 126 the highest level in 16 years. The numbers are gathered from over 1,000 participants after the Dow Jones Industrials tagged the 20K level in February. The poll was at 130, another record high, back in 2000 when the dotcom bubble popped. Over 60% of the respondents say now is a great time to invest in the stock market the highest number in six years.

Quarterly Reminder

It is time for the Quarterly Reminder;

The KE Stone family of blogs includes Keybot the Quant, The Keystone Speculator and Keystone the Scribe. The blogs only continue with the support of the tens of thousands of daily international users. Blog content is posted according to the amount of support received from the hundreds of thousands of views each month. The handy donation link is provided in the right margin.

The ad-blocking software that blocks the ad-blocking software that some of the users employ is helping since Google Analytics is now recognizing the daily views again. Anyone using ad-blocking software must realize that you are destroying the free content provided on the internet. The ads in the margins are very benign and do not bother anyone; there is no flashing animation or irritating sounds from the ads. For those using ad-blocking software, simply go into the menu and list the three sites above as acceptable sites. This act will help ensure that the blogs receive the credit they are due from Google Analytics and the popular financial, stock trading and technical analysis information you find here daily will continue.

It is desired to receive much broader participation by daily users for this quarter. Any amount of support is helpful. Simply turn over your couch cushions or better yet, go to the lobby of your office and search under those sofa cushions and send  that loose change along.

The overall support for the websites will be assessed over the next couple weeks. If the blogs do not receive broad support and participation, they will end or at least go on hiatus for a while again. It is all up to you especially you cheapskates at the large investment banks that monitor the KE Stone blogs each day. Let some moths out of those wallets.

Many emails from daily users are constantly requesting that the blog sites turn into a subscription-based service but there is no interest in that direction. The sites either remain available to the general public or they will disappear.

If anyone wants to receive a technical analysis opinion on any stock ticker or index, write the symbol/s in on the donation form or in an email and the monthly, weekly and daily charts and analysis can be posted on The Keystone Speculator site.

Site proceeds go to charities. Keystone is helping an all-volunteer thrift shop in a nearby town, a very poor and destitute area that provides clothes and other household products to help the disadvantaged. It is important that the folks of modest means can purchase items, albeit at very inexpensive prices, to maintain their self-esteem and self-worth as they keep trying to make a better life for themselves.

Go through your closets and drawers and donate old clothes and other items to the local thrift shops. Gather all the canned goods in your pantry that you do not plan to eat and donate those items to local thrift shops or the local food bank in your area.

Remember, “You can’t take your money with you when you croak” and “money does not make you happy.” As you age, you realize that providing compassion to the disadvantaged and poor and helping those in need is what provides eternal riches.

Thank you all for your continued support for the KE Stone blogs.

Protectionism is one of the key elements that extended the Great Depression well into and through the 1930’s. Nations pulling back trade to boost their own companies and economies only serve to fuel a race to the bottom. Countries slit each other’s throats in a tit for tat protectionism trade war that takes the global economy down.

Premiums will also be expected to rise but there is confusion with the republicans saying the report says premiums will be lower. Humorously, looking at the plan in simple terms, less people will be insured so that will save money on the overall program and accounts for the deficit decreasing; this is where the healthcare mess started eight years ago.

TRUMP PROMISES LOWER TAXES, HUGE INFASTRUCTURE SPENDING AND REDUCED REGULATIONS

FED TOUTING RATE HIKE FOR 3/15/17

TRUMP-RUSSIA CONNECTION?

FRANCE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DRAMA

BICOIN 1200

The chronology describes the epic market, political and economic events as they occur in real-time. The stock market continues melting up on promises from President Trump for lower taxes, huge infrastructures spending and reduced regulations.

President Trump is embroiled in a controversy that he and his staff had contact with Russians before the election but there is no proof this occurred.

The global populism movement continues with elections approaching in the Netherlands and France. Le Pen and Macron are the front runners in the France presidential election race. Bitcoin approaches 1200 and rises above. In early March, bitcoin price surpasses the gold price.

The chronology explains the reaction in stocks, bonds and currencies to key events and economic data releases. If you are trying to make sense of the markets this is the resource for you. No other publication exists where the stock, bond and currency moves are detailed and explained as world events take place in real-time. You can re-live the real-time price moves and excitement in markets for any past event including Brexit, the US election, economic data releases, Fed meetings, etc...

The chronology records economic history preventing revisionist tampering in future years. Analyst and strategist quotes and words are recorded in the chronology so credit or disdain can be handed out in the future. If a multi-year top is printing, the chronology serves as the most accurate accounting of the stock market topping process ever recorded in economic and market history. The chronology is the most reliable and easy to understand source for explaining global markets. The chronology is cheap and very easy to read and avoids using fancy ten-dollar college words.

As always, all monthly publications of the Daily Chronology of GlobalMarkets and World Economics are available from the links in the margins of the K E Stone blog sites or simply searching on Amazon or Google. The monthly publication contains updated information not posted on the Keystone the Scribe web site as well as clarifications, edits and refinements to the ongoing daily blog text.

We are living through historic stock market and economic times. The daily chronology is the most accurate accounting on how the stock market tops and bottoms occur in real-time. The monthly publications are compatible with any electronic device and include an extensive Business Acronym List and Ticker Symbol List. The Acronym List is the most comprehensive business-related acronym list available on the internet. The chronology is not available in hard copy and only distributed around the world electronically.

The KE Stone Series of blogs are viewed by 100's of thousands of people around the globe each month including money managers, strategists, analysts, traders, investors, teachers, students, market historians, economists, current event enthusiasts, hedge fund managers, political junkies, futurists and folks that truly want to understand how the world's economic systems and markets function.

All readers should support the KE Stone family of blogs so more information, articles, stories, market and economic insight, charts and technical analysis can be provided. The blogs aid charities and will only continue if broadly supported by the thousands of daily users.
