MARTIN ARMSTRONG'S BLOG POSTS TODAY


Self-Aware Artificial Intelligence

Self-Referral
QUESTION: You are a legend in programming that you seem not to be aware of. The debate has been did your computer achieve self-consciousness?
ANSWER: No. It achieved self-awareness. It immediately knew the government was trying to take it to its secret computer lab in WTC building 7 that mysterious collapsed even though nothing struck the building. They were angry when they realized it had self-destructed. It was aware of its surroundings and it took all but 7 seconds to self-destruct overwriting all code 7 times and shifting around so they could never un-erase and put him back together again.
The Global Market Watch is running. It is being tested live and seems to have handled these turning points rather well. Reassembling something of this magnitude is truly an awesome project. It is time consuming to say the least. What is at stake is the creation of an artificial being that monitors the world around it. This is beyond creating a mere drone that people control from a distance. This is something that thinks on its own and tells you what it has explored.

NSA Relies on Private Contractors

The NSA cannot accomplish everything without private contractors. There will always be Snowdens in the system. The government is deeply in bed with various companies. Some they have blackmailed. Others join voluntarily

Russia Moves to Defend Syria


Destroyer Admiral Kulakov
The Russian Vice Admiral Kulakov destroyer is heading for Syria. Just one day after the G8 Summit ended in the complete failure of Western leaders to overcome Russian resistance to a resolution mandating President Bashar Assad’s ouster, Moscow announced Wednesday June 19 that it was dispatching two warships carrying 600 Russian marines to Syria. The official statement claims that they are going “to protect the Russian citizens there.”
CycleOfWar-2014
What is amazing is how there is a time for everything. Our computer model has been warning that the War Cycle is turning up. What gives Russia the courage to become more bold, it is the weakness in the economies of the West. This is PRECISELY the same reason the barbarian moved into the Roman Empire. They could smell the blood. Because the bankers are bleeding governments dry and there is no hope of political reform, we are headed into a downward economic spiral.
Putin has warned the West that if they persisted in arming the rebels any further, and Obama boast of supporting the rebels while Kerry wants air strikes inside Syria,  Russian troop landing in Syria will raise the stakes tremendously and Putin is showing Obama he is not alone and Putin will not tolerate America pretending to rule the world.
Some 20,000 Russians do live in Syria. Previously, Syrian domiciled Russians were given the instructions were to gather should Moscow decide to lift them out of the war zone. However, the evacuation of Russian citizens would in itself dramatically denote the expansion of the Syrian conflict whereas they now afford the excuse for Russian support of Syria.

The Dow & The Future

DJFOR-D 6172013
We will be publishing an update shortly on world share markets once we have the ECM turning point in place 8/07. For now, here too the Dow peaked on this reaction from the 6/06 low for 8 trading days into 06/18 when we hit the Directional Change here as well. Look for higher volatility tomorrow.
Based upon all the comments coming in, it is good people are starting to see there is a whole new way to use technology to understand the movements of the global economy that are so far beyond personal opinion. In analysis, we are still highly primitive as if we have yet to pass the witch-doctor stage.
The Daily Bearish Reversals are 14670 and 14392 with the Weekly Bearish at 14390 and 14360/ The key support starts with the Monthly Bearish at 13139 and 12940, with the critical support at the Monthly Bearish at 12220.

Gold – The Tree Must be Shaken

Gold 400 oz Bars
The number one story has been that the Fed is printing money, it will be worthless, and you have to buy gold. Sorry – way too simplistic. This has been said by the vast MAJORITY becoming one of the most common pieces of investment advice of recent years – just buy gold.
The Goldbugs have claimed that gold is the only true currency and it will protect you against the ravages of out-of-control government money printing. But that is just not happening. The Fed has shown what will happen when it stops the QE program. Bernake also said if he sells anything, it will NOT be the mortgages. This, the Treasuries will go first and hence the rise in interest rates. This is a GOOD thing for it is the necessary key to actually restoring inflation on a lagging basis. One reader writes:
Good morning Mr. Armstrong,

With both gold & silver down substantially this morning there will definitely be rhetoric out of the gold bugs about manipulation in the paper futures market. 

One thing I have never heard the bugs attempt to explain, is that when hundreds of tons of paper contracts are sold, who is the buyer?

Who do you think is buying all these contracts?

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.  
This is not about gold by itself and yet they will confuse even more people ensuring they lose their shirt and pants by swearing they are not wrong – it’s just a manipulation. This is a Spiral Collapse. There are so many people involved who just bought gold and held that there is enough fuel to see the typical required panic sell off.
NYGFOR-D 6202013

Gold began its recent decline precisely on target with the Direction Change of 06/17. Look for volatility to start to rise tomorrow into Monday. It will now take a daily closing back above 1400 to stabilize gold. This implies we have lower to go.
NYGOLD-W 6202013

Key support lies at 1270 followed critical support at 1236-1233. A weekly closing beneath that level opens the door to a test of the 939.50 level.
NYCFOR-W 6202013

It still appears we could see the lowest monthly closing in June, but the intraday low may still move into July ahead of the ECM turning point.

The Accomplishment of AI – Not Market Manipulation

COMMENT: The turn on the Euro was spot on.   Advice on the Yen/ Dollar   was also spot on.   Please give us some updates on the DOW though
The best to you and your staff for all your hard work
ANSWER: No body on a personal level can possibly pick so many turning points. It is just humanly impossible. My goal is to demonstrate that we can learn from the past when we separate human emotion from the plain and simple truth – just the facts mam and show me the money (capital flows).
I am finishing a in-depth article on Artificial Intelligence and how it has been achieved. Several people have commented that there is some show on the Sci Fi Channel where someone is trying to create a model and they mention me. This is the way to the future and how to even manage government. Stop the corruption, bribes, for you cannot change the trend – all they do is accelerate it adding volatility.
IBEUFOR-D 6-17-2013
The Euro turned precisely on the Directional Change we just published several days ago. We have high volatility starting tomorrow and into early next week. This is not personal opinion. We will open the Think Tank to membership so never again can anyone claim this is all me all the time. I am not superman. This is the accomplishment of Artificial Intelligence – not market manipulation. Sorry – the world is not flat – there is a whole new dynamic nonlinear landscape out there that is fractal in nature.
