If you would like to receive weekly updates like this, sign up here. It’s Phil Anderson here. I’m filling in for Darren today. He’s gone bush for the weekend after a pretty intensive W.D. Gann course with another of your Property Sharemarket Economics (PSE) educators, Jon Kirk. We’re talking today though about one of those three-letter words that ends in ‘x’. You immediately thought of ‘tax’…

Whilst Trump took all the attention, the real estate cycle kept turning. Here’s how.

Max — Mon, 18 Jan 2021 09:40:56 +0000

Love him or hate him, Trump certainly knew how to get our attention. Or that of the media at least. If you’ve read my book The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking, then you’ll know history suggests this will only intensify as we progress into the very extreme of the real estate cycle. I urge you to keep an eye on history here. You may have read – or heard about – ‘the roaring 20’s’.

December 25: The secret to how ‘Time’works

Max — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 16:03:40 +0000

There’s a lot of money involved in markets. Trillions of dollars swirl about every day. Traders are buying and selling. Hedge funds taking positions. And today even government and institutional banks get involved. (And the US bond market is even bigger than its stock market.) I’m best known for all my real estate cycles work. But actually, trading is my passion. And for today, this brings us to W.

Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of a mortgage

Do you own a credit card? Chances are you do. Here is something you can do; go to your internet bank website or paper statements since, say, January 2020. Can you see the interest rate you are charged per annum? If your card is like mine, the rate will be north of 20% a year on purchases. Has your credit card provider dropped that interest rate for you since January? Or is it the same?

Could your next home come out a hose?

Could your next house come out of a hose? US start-up company ‘Icon’ has begun building 3D-printed homes in developing countries. The company says it can ‘print’ such a home in 24 hours for about US$4000. 3D printers are gaining in sophistication it seems. Everybody thinks this is going to revolutionize housing and help create ‘affordable homes’. Homes will become so cheap that we’ll be able to…

The information Facebook won’t let us show you

If there is one thing Covid-19 showed us – as if we needed reminding – is just how fragile the economy is AND how perilous your wages can be. Surely it’s time for a Universal Basic Income, sometimes known as a ‘Citizen’s Dividend’? Which is what I’ve spent a good deal of my time studying over the years. But… Whenever I use Facebook to try and tell you a bit about it, like this say: “You’ve…

How the Queen could give you your never-ending income – just like she gets

Alan Morris — Mon, 10 Aug 2020 07:40:59 +0000

In many countries around the world a return to lockdown is looming as a real possibility. Where I grew up, in Australia, in my home state of Victoria, that’s now the case. Even a government-enforced curfew – no one allowed out after 8pm – is being enforced. The economic costs of the virus, it seems, are mounting. In many parts of the world, governments have responded with cash payments…

Did you ever meet the real Winston Churchill?

Alan Morris — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 04:30:11 +0000

Earlier last month, a statue of Winston Churchill was graffitied in central London. The defacing happened during a Black Lives Matter protest. These demonstrations have swept around the globe after the police killing of George Floyd in the US last month. The graffiti scrawled across the base of the statue claimed Churchill was a ‘racist’. But here’s the thing. The statue portrayed the Churchill…

Did you make 25k this month? If not, you need to do this.

The land takes society’s economic and social gains. It’s why you still have to work as many hours as your mum and dad did. Or your grandparents for that matter. This economic fact isn’t so widely appreciated. But it’s been known for a long time. Here’s part of a speech Winston Churchill gave back in 1909 to illustrate the point. After that, I’ll show you why it’s important that you have to…

How a bold call from a great economist went horribly wrong…

Alan Morris — Wed, 15 Jul 2020 06:19:50 +0000

Let’s go back, way back. Ninety years ago, to 1930. It was then that renowned and famous economist, John Maynard Keynes, wrote… ‘…within a hundred years, we’d all be working a 15-hour week.’ It was a big call. And as you’d know, the year 2030 is not so far away now. But as for our 15 hour week? It seems further away than ever? So what happened? Ask the economists, you’ll get a dozen different…
