The Shmita cycle

2  2015-06-05 by drewshaver

From the wiki

All debts, except those of foreigners, were to be remitted

If that is the case, creditors would call in their debts before the day of reckoning. This in turn causes a margin call, which causes a liquidity crisis.. The next shmita is in less than 100 days. The bond bubble has already begun to pop in a large way, and we are in the third longest bull market of history.. get ready for a great reset.

This cycle has been triggering financial events for the past ?? years:

  • 1973 Arab Oil Embargo
  • 1980 Gold & Silver Hunt Brothers peak and collapse
  • 1987 Black Monday
  • 1994 Irrational Exuberance with ensuing Asian Meltdown and bond crisis
  • 2001 Dot-com fire sale
  • 2008 Lehman failure
  • 2015 Fiat currency collapse? New (and old) reserve currency: Bitcoin & Gold

What day does it begin in 2015?

The Hebrew shemita year began the middle of last September, and it ends the middle of September, 2015. The Synagogue of Satan tends to make its moves near the beginning or the end the shemita; this is a special shemita, as it precedes a 50 year jubilee, so something huge is to be expected. Google Jonathan Cahn for the full treatment.

I'll Google Calendar Sept., if its still around.

You really should prepare ahead of time.

Do I still have time to prepare??? I don't want to get Shmita'ed!

2  IanPhlegming 2015-06-05

Thank you for your reply. I was aware of much of this, as well as the 7-year cycle, and planned on making money moves to protect myself late summer but before Labor Day. I will Google your man JCahn to learn more, but do you think I'm skirting too close to danger by waiting that long?

I've got zero doubts it's coming though. Even without the Occult angle, this shit can't hold much longer.

1  s70n3834r 2015-06-05

That's very late, given the fuzzy nature of the thing; they could easily pull it in August, depending on the astrology. Ideally one would spend the entire shemita in preparation, but one does what one can. IMO you are thinking small; also make plans to profit.

2  IanPhlegming 2015-06-05

Thank you for the perspective and advice.

Short certain stocks? I've been thinking of that. What else might you recommend? Buying gold and other metals?

2  drewshaver 2015-06-05

Yea especially with the launch of this site the crash might happen well before the Shemita. Things are really rolling at this point with bank runs in Greece and the bond bubble bursting. I would recommend a diversification of the following hard assets:

Silver bullion, batteries, gasoline, guns, ammo, non perishables, a generator / solar panels. Maybe some common spare parts like alternators.

And the following soft assets:

Bitcoins, stock in companies that mine silver, stock in companies with hard assets: railways, mining rights, farms, that sort of thing. Crude oil futures. SPXU is also fun in a down turn, but make sure you get out at some point because it is bound to get overvalued, it might even be completely worthless in a complete breakdown of the financial sector. Pawn shops and dollar stores are bound to go up up up. Take a look at what Berkshire Hathaway is doing for more ideas (they just bought an entire railroad!).

This is excellent perspective and information. Thank you.

Why silver over gold? I have ten oz. of gold in a safe deposit box in a bank, which I've been told is not the best place to keep it. You don't have to comment on that, but why silver > gold?

2  drewshaver 2015-06-05

You are quite welcome! I like silver because it is more negotiable / divisible. Gold is worth so much that the practicality of spending it in a currency collapse makes it kind of a liability. It is probably best to have both, though. Depending on exactly what actions the government takes, one might be safer than the other (gold is easier to smuggle, but also the gov't might try and seize everyone's gold again)

Definitely do not keep it in a safe deposit box. When the banks go insolvent who knows what will happen to it.

2  IanPhlegming 2015-06-05

I've also started reading Jonathan Cahn. Very interesting. Thank you for that connection as well.

2  drewshaver 2015-06-05

That was /u/s70n3834r :p

(my thanks to you as well for the link s7!)

You're welcome. :)

That's a real nice list, though I'd suggest a few things for the precious metals:

Gold is a great investment, but a long-term one, as its rise is certain to be very spikey and difficult to speculate with.

Silver is an excellent asset, as it is even more undervalued than gold at the moment; but it will be wise to diversify with a couple of grand in government silver in your safe. Your bullion will come reported and tracked, and nobody will trust it in trade, no matter how fancy the certificate that came with it.

If you buy stock in mining companies, make sure to avoid those carrying any significant amount of debt, because that means banksters already own those companies, and your stock purchase would just be decorative.

It's kind of a big deal, because one major purpose of suppressing the precious metal price is to drive the mining companies into debt, allowing the banksters to own the metal while it is still in the ground (and off the books), at pennies on the dollar.

Also vices: Liquor and cigarettes are a sure thing if you expect things to get really bad. You would have to find a way to keep your customers from knowing from whom, and where, they came from though.

These are all such great points, thank you so much!! Especially about the mining co debt -- that is so crucial.

Could you elaborate what you mean by government silver? Is there a way to get that without without it being tracked?

2  drewshaver 2015-06-05

paging /u/IanPhlegming you don't want to miss this info either

1  IanPhlegming 2015-06-05

Got it. Thank you.

2  s70n3834r 2015-06-05

Silver coins of limited or no numismatic value. You can buy them by the bag for little more than their 90% silver content, which will be known and trusted in trade in the event of a currency failure.

Also, I should have said above that when you buy precious metals, you are essentially shorting fiat currency.

Addendum: The US government does not track minted coins, and values them at face value for tax purposes.

I very much appreciate this information, and have added you as a friend to keep up with your perspectives.

At first glance I thought that site was a hoax.. But then when I saw the mention of the shmita.. Which I had been working on correlating the few days prior.. I was like holy shite

2  iNC4RN473 2015-06-05

That's the only reason I brought it up. Now we wait.

when does JH end?

1  drewshaver 2015-06-05

JH? nvmd; jade helm i assume

1  make_mind_free2go 2015-06-05

yes, imo Jade Helm (JH) is a precursor to something more sinister.
