Although I have strong suspicions that the general plans for the current outcomes were pre-planned by the global elite as part of the chaos needed to bring about a world government, if one prefers a non-planned explanation then the Minsky Moment is a candidate.
Now you are talking. Kudos on the nod to objectivity.
I think we can all now conclude that Armstrongs Oct 1 turn date has proven to be true. The world has gone to hell in a very short period of time centered around this turn date, with the key marker of Russia starting to bomb the USA funded rebels exactly on the turn date.
Leaning toward agreement. There is a lot of crazy shit going down right now. Politically, wars, migration, markets, commodities, capital outflows, economics, etc. Also don't forget the huge downward revision in US jobs (important indicator of the economy) that was announced on October 2. Of course that is backward looking data but it is clear the downward break has happened sometime around the end of Q2 into Q3 2015.
EDIT: It is still possible this "big turn" turns out to be a dud, if many of these major sources of instability end up becoming less serious on their own or are easily resolved. We'll have to see.
