“Dark Money” Runs the World

This post “Dark Money” Runs the World appeared first on Daily Reckoning.

Few people know financial markets’ biggest secret…

For the last 40 years, most people believed the stock market always goes up. Simply buy and hold long enough, the theory went, and you could sit back and watch the money accumulate in your account. No thought or hard work needed.

It was a nifty strategy — until the idea burned most investors in 2008. Almost a decade later, the scar tissue is still fresh for many investors.

Even today, after the U.S. stock market has rallied by 271% since the bottom on March 6, 2009 — nearly tripling investors’ money — only about half of Americans are invested in the stock market, according to NPR. That’s down from two-thirds compared to a decade ago.

The rest are in cash on the sidelines. Maybe that’s been you.

And who can blame you? “Fool me once, shame on you,” the saying goes. “Fool me twice, shame on me.”

Last June, Fortune surveyed readers. 71% of respondents said “the economic system in the U.S. is rigged in favor of certain groups.”

A few years earlier, the Los Angeles Times reported “Poll finds 64% of voters believe stock market is rigged against them…

They’re not wrong.

Somebody’s made gains from all of those sectors in the stock market. It just hasn’t been Main Street.

Since I’ve left the world of big banking, I’ve made it my mission to change that. That leads me to the catalyst for my new project…

Dark money.

Dark money is the #1 secret life force of today’s rigged financial markets. It drives whole markets up and down. It’s the reason for today’s financial bubbles.

On Wall Street, knowledge of and access to dark money means trillions of dollars per year flowing in and around global stock, bond and derivatives markets.

I learned this firsthand from my career on Wall Street. My first full year working on Wall Street was in 1987.

I wasn’t talking about “dark money” or central bank collusion back then. I was just starting out.

Eventually, I would uncover how the dark money system works… how it has corrupted our financial system… and encouraged greed to the point of crisis like in 2008.

When I moved abroad to create and run the analytics department at Bear Stearns London as senior managing director, I got my first look at how dark money flows and its effects cross borders.

The “dark money” comes from central banks. In essence, central banks “print” money or electronically fabricate money by buying bonds or stocks. They use other tools like adjusting interest rate policy and currency agreements with other central banks to pump liquidity into the financial system.

That dark money goes to the biggest private banks and financial institutions first. From there, it spreads out in seemingly infinite directions affecting different financial assets in different ways.

Yet these dark money flows stretch around the world according to a pattern of power, influence and, of course, wealth for select groups. To be a part of the dark money elite means to have control over many. How elite is a matter of degree.

These is not built upon conspiracy theories. To the contrary, alliances make perfect sense and operate publicly. Even better, their exclusive dealings and the consequences that follow are foreseeable — but only if you understand how the system works and follow the dark money flows.

It’s easy to see how this dark money affects the stock market at a high level, because we can monitor its constant movement.

Here’s the smoking gun:

The black line shows you how much “dark money” the Federal Reserve has printed since 2008.

The gray line shows you the S&P 500.

They move together — more dark money drives the market higher. Much higher.

There are dark money charts from around the world, just like the one I showed you for the Federal Reserve and U.S. stock market.

Look at this “dark money” chart from Japan, for example:

The blue line shows the dark money created by their central bank, The Bank of Japan. The red line shows Japan’s major stock index, the Nikkei 225, going up as well. The dark money drove the market much higher over the past eight years.

Or, look at this “dark money” chart from the U.K.:

Again, the blue line shows the “dark money” created since 2009 by the U.K.’s central bank, The Bank of England. The black line shows how the FTSE 100, their stock index, has followed higher in lock-step.

To invest profitably in financial markets, you need to understand the hidden power relationships that drive financial and political events. Ideologies and personal associations among elites are oblivious to political party lines and international boundaries. So is dark money.

But even when the data is as clear as these charts, it’s hard to know how to trade around it.

For an individual investor like you, looking to manage your individual portfolio positions, this dark money is invisible. Without help, it’s hard to identify and execute trades based on dark money.

Which begs the question: What are you supposed to do with this information?

With Dark Money Millionaires, I’m able to find trading ideas you can act on, based on this kind knowledge.

If you know where this dark money is coming from… where it’s going… and how it will be used… you can position yourself for profits.

I’ll draw on my professional experiences to help you look forward and get an edge on what financial markets are going to do.

Through alerts, issues and recommendations, I’ll expose the secret money flows that make investors millions.

I have two missions:

  1. Help everyday Americans stay out of financial trouble as dark money drives markets both up and down.
  1. Help them find genuine trading opportunities by tapping into dark money’s dynamic, so they’re not paralyzed by uncertainty.

I’m not suggesting anyone become a cheerleader for the bubble dynamics in today’s financial markets. I’m not suggesting anyone “fight the Fed,” either.

I’m suggesting it’s possible to find the opportunities to trade around the dark money flows that Wall Street thrives on.

I believe that — equipped with the right approach, tools and systems — you can make considerable profits from this dark money.

A key part of the process involves understanding how governments and markets function.

Another part involves knowing how both are intertwined. Yet another part requires interpreting central bankers talk.

There is one thing I have learned over my career. People matter just as much as data. Relationships matter.

In order analyze the flow of dark money, we need to examine the relationships between countries, organizations and the private banking world.

Only experience can tip you off as to when and where to look for that valuable information. Then, we use a rigid system to highlight actionable trade recommendations after we’ve used our experience and research to narrow down a target country or sector.

Our proprietary Dark Money Monitor assesses objective data points and gives a quantifiable output that points to a specific trade recommendation.

This is the kind of top-level analysis that I have presented in private circles and to financial analysts all over the world.

I invite you to join me in this exciting new project.
