1. We Called It.
While the herd chased hype, we nailed the Trump Tariff Trade in 2025 as written about in ( Tariffs Dance with the Devil ) , warned about the 2025 bear market back in Jan 2025, and flagged gold’s 100% rise in 2023 . Our track record speaks louder than words. As written about in the previous reports here:
Also, when markets were in free fall on March 21, 2025, we were the only platform with a strategy and plan titled “ Moneyball ” that helped investors from Wall Street to Main Street by stating that the focus should be on what is called the Core Four (Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft) along with adding the stock index ETFs. This balance strategy along with having gold in the portfolio allows you to keep buying assets at discounted prices.
2. Forensic Earnings Analysis—Every Quarter.
We dig where Wall Street won’t. Using forensic accounting from Golden Coast Consultants, we break down earnings reports, exposing red flags like inflated receivables, fake free cash flow, and deferred expenses disguised as growth. These insights have allowed us to have time the tops and even short Tesla at $420 a share and Nvidia over $150 a share in 2025 here:
3. Austrian Economics Meets Market Reality.
We don’t follow Keynesian narratives. Our analysis is rooted in Austrian economic principles—focused on sound money, real productivity, and long-term consequences. We explain why things happen, not just what happened.
4. Edgy, Smart, and Actually Fun to Read.
We make economics and markets entertaining without dumbing them down. Expect references to pop culture you know—because you deserve content that’s sharp and cinematic.

Subscribers unlock exclusive research, charts, and opinion pieces you won’t find anywhere else such as the “ Carpe Diem “ portfolio strategy that has yielded massive gains in 2025—content that hedge funds wish they had.
