First of all, let me say that I could be spending my time in much better ways than writing this, however I feel that I have to point out of few things about the world that the majority of people are blissfully unaware of.

I’ve been described as a pessimist. Well maybe I am, or as I like to think of myself, a realist. 20 years of trading and analysing pretty much everything happening in the markets can do that to a man. When I tell people to ‘follow the money’ this means that everything that is happening politically and in the world today is ultimately motivated by money.

It used to be, ‘First you get the money, then you get the power’. Scarface. Used to be. What has happened now is that there has been so much business money cosied up to the political system, businesses and their agendas they now own to the ‘power’. This means the global elite and the businesses they run now make calls that ultimately affect you and the way you live, much more importantly the way you will live your lives in the future. People think because they have the ‘vote’ they have the ‘power’. This may have been the case in the past, but it is not now. There is a Conservative and Labour party in name and ideals, but there is no longer a left or right, there are just puppets dancing to the tune of the money that is behind them.

The government you voted for. I’ll let that sink in. Voted for. Do you recall voting for Truss or Rishi? Well, that’s right, you didn’t vote for either. You may have voted for the ‘party’ but you don’t get to elect their leader and that’s where problem, well didn’t start, but where the shit really started to hit the fan economically.

What I’m going to explain to you is the future, your future. This is what I do. I’m very good at it.

So when everyone decided Boris was indeed a clown and it was time for a change, you got what you wanted. He resigned. Again, I’ll let that sink in, you got what you wanted right? Wrong. What you got was a perfectly timed window for the very elite to carve up a shed load of money and stick you with the bill.

Truss & Kwarteng. The perfect puppets. She’s now a foot note in history as the shortest PM ever in office and he’s, well who cares? Now that should be the story, but it’s not, is it? You have to follow the money.

Truss’s campaign was backed by a number of bankers and hedge fund founders, like Natasha Barnaba for example. These are the sorts of people Truss has been associating herself with for years. The information is all out there I don’t have to itemise it, it’s public record. Kwarteng himself has been linked to Odey Asset management in the past, but as Chancellor of the exchequer he was just another fall guy, as sacrificial lamb that was slaughtered to shield Truss for a few precious weeks so she could get her guaranteed PM pay out.

So as a trader myself, someone who’s made a lot of money interpreting economic events I know exactly what to look out for. I also know if I wanted someone in power to present or say something to the markets, I’d know what to say and when to say it and how to make money from it. The difference is I only make a lousy 6 figures a day out of these things where are the big boys and girls make 7,8,9 and more than likely 10 figures out of these things.

Going back to following the money. If you are backed by people who know exactly what will move the markets, and then get the person elected who as the ‘power’ and credibility (big laughs on that) to deliver it to the markets, what is the outcome? The markets do exactly what you were expecting and you, as in the bankers and hedge funds, make a huge amount of money.

The chain of command was donors, to PM to chancellor to the markets. Now they are both gone and so is the money.

So, keep up with me here. Usually with trading there is a winner and a loser. That’s how markets work. In this case what makes it more pertinent to following the money is that what this mini budget did, or what now know did, was create a carefully crafted trading opportunity. The resulting market movements directly targeted the GBP and the UK pension funds. They did this via the BOE having to support the Gilts (long dated Guilts) by emergency intervention. Now if you’re not a trader you won’t know that much about Gilts and long dated debts… but it’s not that important really. Basically, the pension funds had a boat load of them. What is important is that the people in the know, know what they are, and the fact that they had Truss and Kwarteng deliver a budget that directly impacted those is an undeniable link.

The BOE said its bond purchases would be "time limited" and carried out on "whatever scale is necessary" to ease investor concerns. The package was reported to be worth up to 65bn. So that is the BOE buying back government debt. That’s who the loser is in this case, the people that have to pay back that debt. You, the taxpayer.

That’s the mechanism of transferring public money back into the hands of the elite, right there in front of you.

Now have you got a bit more time? Do you want to see where the rabbit hole leads? Do you really want to follow the money all the way there? Do you want to know what this means for your future?

Well strap yourself in.

Going back to ‘first you get the money, then you get the power’. What if you have all the money and now the majority of power, what do you want next? Control. This is where it all become a lot more sinister.

Another glaring obvious transfer of wealth from the public to the elite is good old Covid. It’s just in the news today that Michelle Mone, you may remember her as another potential Conservative party leader contender, and her children ‘secretly’ received 29m from a PPE company that was given a lucrative government contract. Funny that. How much of that has gone on in the last few years. The Covid track and tracer, was that good value at 39bn? I mean 39 billion pounds, for something that never worked and was hardly used. The other PPE companies that never delivered. The fraudulent loans that were handed out and then subsequently written off.

Follow the money… MP’s to donors and cronies. You foot the bill.

So that’s the money and power dynamic sorted. They have it, all, but the control?

Look no further than Bitcoin. Now this is an example of how the really rich work. People like Elon Musk and celebrities alike pumped this up, but it was the real money men, the people with real money that were apposed to it and destroyed it. Who’s really the richest person in the world, it isn’t paper money Musk, it’s Bill Gates and his pal Warren buffet.

Now I could do a whole other piece on Bitcoin, but I’ll save that for another day.

Remember ‘money talks and wealth whispers’. The whole crypto crash was another example of a transfer of wealth, this time generational, but it was another lesson in control.

Wipe out the credibility of something ‘potentially’ good and replace it with something better, safer and trust worthy. Right now they are testing a digital Dollar. This is where the alarm bells should start ringing.

The World economic forum or WEF. I’m not going tinfoil hat full conspiracy theory here, but from someone who predicts the future, this is how it is going down.

What’s the buzz word presently? Climate change. So follow the money with me. What’s the WEF, well its Charles Schwab and his ‘great reset’. The new world order. Sounds like something out of James Bond. Well it is. Again, this is all public record, so go out there and do your own Googling and research.

Oh yes and at the COP 27 where all the ‘world leaders’ where discussing climate change, who was there? Charles Schwab and Bill Gates. Funny that. Don’t recall them being elected to speak on out behalf.

What I see as the future, which is just at it’s core another tax, but is also the perfect way to get control of the public at large.

It stems from Covid and the controls and measure that were put in place to keep you ‘safe’. The idea is the WHO are talking about a digital vaccine passport. So essentially if you want to travel you’ll have to have the jabs and as many as they say to do so.

The next idea is to have that linked a digital ID card. It’s been talked about before, and it just went away. So in the name of climate change and saving the planet, what would be the best way to implement this? Tie it in with all the new laws that were rushed through during Covid. So for your own good someone decides if you are literally fit enough to leave your country. The missing link? All paid for with a new digital currency.

What does it all mean Steve?

Control.

You are assigned your digital ID. Control. You are linked to a digital passport which will determine IF you can go anywhere, control. It will all then be tracked by your use of the digital currency, ultimate control.

Imagine this. Your weekly activity.

Go down the pub. How many drinks?

Go down to the supermarket, what did you buy? Two pizzas and ice cream?

Go down to the bookies, that’s a big bet.

Go on holiday. That’s 2 holidays this year isn’t it.

Go away for the weekend. That’s a lot of miles, oh and it's not electric?

I think you’re getting the idea.

What if this information was shared with your doctor, your insurance company, the banks (well they have that anyway) business and advertisers?

Instant way to tax you on everything that is supposedly affecting climate change. Straight off the bat. You kill the planet, you pay.

Of course there are all the other implication, like diet being linked to your social credit score. Health insurance goes up after a big night out. Someone, probably AI developed by Bill, will be watching you and charging you for every single adverse thing you do or that uses too much carbon.

The idea is to have you constantly linked to your phone and to be a ticking carbon meter.

The rich, remember, that jet around on private planes and go on e their yachts, they will have a special ID of course their carbon Jimmy Choo’s are different. The average Joe? They pay and if they don’t well, how hard would it be to stop you using an app like Uber, or limiting your access to social media. How about renting or buying a house. Travel?

Once physical cash goes the currency is now information.

Well, it’s all happening now. You just have to read between the so-called news lines.
