Happy New Year Everyone!!!
It is good to be back and blogging. Quite a few things to cover over the next few days. Including today’s gap down at the open, the sell-off in China and year end window dressing. More on that in a few.
First, let’s concentrate on important macro events that will have severe consequences on the stock market in 2016. Something no one is talking about. In October of last year I have suggested that Mr. Putin end game was not to stabilize Syria, but to wipe out Saudi Arabia. Will Putin Destroy Saudi Arabia?
Not directly, of course, but Iran has now official entered this final chapter on behalf of Russia.
The primary question now is…..will the US Government stand by its long time ally Saudi Arabia or abandon it as it did with every other government? Mr.Putin is betting on the latter and he has a one year window to get it done.
Again, to accomplish a complete victory in the Middle East Mr. Putin must destabilize and collapse Saudi Arabia. I believe that is to be his end game at the present moment. Such a development would deliver a major blow to the US in the region, cement his power and bring the price of oil back up (buy oil?).
And that might actually happen much faster than anyone believes.
- Is the House of Saud teetering on the edge of collapse?

Either way, get some popcorn, this will be an interesting story to watch in 2016
