-On that note, Trump and Zelensky had a phone call today (Friday).
--Wonder if Vindman will “leak” something that’s proven absolutely wrong if the transcript will ever be released, leading to a theater production-level UKR Impeachment Hoax v2.0
--Where is good old CIA “analyst” Eric Ciaramella these days?

-The IDF smoked a senior Hezzie leader from the elite Radwan Force in Southern Lebanon this week.

-The American consulate in Tel Aviv was hit with an explosive drone Thursday evening.

Markets/economics:
-@LukeGromen noted on X today that the sharp selloff in gold today seems to be a repeating pattern. His post:
Sharp sell-off in gold on a Friday once again, after China's gone home for the weekend.
3rd or 4th time I've seen this happen since early April, if I recall correctly. All on Fridays.
Previous times were "sound & fury, signifying nothing."
Let's watch.

-356 companies filed for bankruptcy this year, which is higher than both the pandemic and anything from the past 13 years. *Note: Before Biden’s Brain Bumble, this was the main reason he was already losing massive support. It’s the economy, stupid.

-Continuing jobless claims rose to 1.9mm yesterday, the highest since 2021. It’s the economy, stupid.

-China dumped an all-time high of $42.6 bn in US securities in May.

Business:
-One of the key investment tools that I like to look for is insider buying, selling, or shares held (along with founders who still have control of the company in at least some fashion).
--Just putting it out there that Bezos was selling recently, and now NVDA CEO Huang has reportedly sold $380mm of NVDA shares this week.
--Again, not personal financial advice, just putting it out there.

-We covered Crowdstrike ($CRWD) in the domestic section, but I had several programmers and software engineers reach out to me today to note how ludicrous and “JV” this ordeal was.
--Given that I had friends also grounded during important work travel, I’ll add a thread in the show notes from former Google software engineer (and whistle-blower) Jack Vorhees about the egregious f- up…if that is indeed what it was.

-Saks Fifth Avenue in San Francisco is pivoting to an appointment-only model because of all of the shoplifting and robberies. But tell us more about how crime is down in CA, Gavin.

-Keurig/Green Mountain announced this week that they will lay off around 400 employees. This is one of the “downstream effects” that you will hear me talk about.

-As reported by @MacroEdge, SunPower Corp. plunged to an all-time low after the solar company told dealers it would no longer support new installations and was halting shipments.

-Mercury Marine has scheduled 1,700 workers for layoff amid a sales slump.

-Tender Greens and its parent company One Table Restaurant Brands filed for bankruptcy. Bearish on AWFL wine mom $30 vegan-adjacent salad West Side eateries.

-A report came out this week showing that Charles Schwab was deep underwater on many of its holdings, and their stock has been getting absolutely hammered since.

Health:
-The media won’t tell you this (for ad revenue reasons that I’m sure we’re all aware of by this point), but it’s been proven that antidepressants don’t actually treat or cure the thing they’re sold/marketed/claimed to treat, as it’s been found to not be a chemical imbalance.
--In fact, 56% of patients stop taking them due to:
--A 255% increase in suicidal tendencies
--59% of males incur erectile dysfunction
--30% become bipolar
--That’s not even diving into the +90% of school shooters who are on SSRIs but we’re not allowed to talk about and the media & gun control lobby will never, ever, ever mention it.
--Article in the show notes.

-A group of Japanese scientists have used a specialized biopsy technique to prove that the mRNA shots are causing cases of deadly heart failure to surge around the world.

Geopolitics:
-Argentina’s economy has now expanded for the first time since Javier “Afuera” Millei took office. Bullish on Argentina. If you’re a fan of Latin women…whoo boy that’s a great place to be right now.
Crazy Conspiracy:
I’ve been super inte5,000-year-oldrested in “untaught human civilization history” for quite some time, and today I’ll be introducing you to a cool one from @CulturalTutor .

The thread below will walk you through Skara Brea, a 5,000 year old village in Scotland (which means it’s older than the current mainstream belief for the pyramids’ age) that was discovered when a storm washed away some soil in 1850.

The people were thought to have survived on livestock, crops, and seafood (kinda kicks a big hole in the “hunter-gatherer current timeline). Each house had a toilet, the village had a central sewage system, and the homes were connected by paved and covered subterranean passageways.

Very different from the current teachings of what people were doing and how they were living between 3,100 and 2,500 BC:

Macro takeaways/lessons from the week:
-Many have been warning about some sort of chaos being let loose before November. Unfortunately, I don’t think the Trump attempt was it. Seriously. It’s probably gonna get crazy.

-No matter what your politics, an honest assessment of the RNC convention this week was that the energy there was off the charts in a positive way. Notably, this is the first year that Ronna (Romney) McDaniel wasn’t a part of it.

-Markets are getting very wobbly. There are a lot of countervailing winds at the moment, and the manipulation of the VIX seemed to have been taken off just a smidgen this week. Patience, Daniel-son, the opportunity to buy at fire-sale prices is coming but not here yet (*not personal financial advice)

White pill(s) for the week:

Everyone needs to stop and have a laugh when things get nuts. So here’s a hilarious video with a voiceover that should make you chuckle at the very least, while it had me ROFL-ing.

Weekend Meditation:
This is different than my normal weekend meditations for you, but I think you will understand.

An interview between @Cerno and Tucker Carlson dropped on Thursday that I think you all should watch. While the last bit covers how the Epstein shitshow (and coverup) came to light (it was Cerno’s legal petition to unredact a case file that blew the lid off of the whole thing), that’s not the focus here.

The first ¾ of the interview goes deeply into the great spiritual battle that many of us can feel is currently in the works, along with some very meaningful discussions about what it means, how it’s being waged, what it is, and most importantly, how people can better themselves and push back against it.

Totally worth the watch - please do:

This video of Chris Martinson claiming to have analyzed the video & IDd multiple shooters is getting a lot of legs.

I have not watched to give my own $0.02 yet, but will this weekend.

If you listened to Friday's Shitshow Macro, this was a big part of the 1st section I discussed.
You were lied to about what caused the 2008-2009 Great Financial Crisis (GFC):
