In the end I believe that they are willing to collapse the credit market, crash the stock markets and collapse the value of the U.S. Dollar on the Forex rather than see Trump make any substantive change. Be ready for the events that will follow January 20th, 2017. There …

Hi, sir! I just listened to an interview Mr. James gave on the XX2 Spotlight Report and wanted to ask either you or he a question. I have been following the economy for quite some time and now, as Mr. Trump prepares to enter office (if he actually gets in!), I am getting nervous about the banks. I heard Mr. James mention silver and swiss francs but not gold, and then he mentioned paypal. I have none of the above! I have no idea HOW to buy silver, gold, et cetera, and an investor I met in passing the other …

Hugh, Regarding L.O.’s letter and “don’t act suspicious and you won’t be suspected”, SARs and CTRs are required by federal law. CTRs for any cash transaction for $10,000 or more are required.

For a time, in Eastern KY, all transactions over $3000 required a CTR. These are done without the customer’s knowledge or permission, usually after the transaction is completed, …
