Get ready for a massive economic crash in September

The 7 year cycle predicts a crash this year, possible worse than 2008

1966: Stock market collapse, Vietnam War, protests
1973: Oil embargo (Oct), Yom Kippur war, Stocks collapse, recession
1980: Inflation, Iran-Iraq war, Silver panic, Stocks crash, recession
1987: Black Monday (Oct.), largest single-day crash ever
1994: Bond collapse, DJIA bear market, war
2001: Stock market crash, 911 (Sept.), recession
2008: Stock market collapse 9/29 (Sept.), recession
2015: ???

Stock market collapses so not always mean wider economic collapses and half your examples are not even the UK.

But yes, people have mentioned this.

Personally, i'm not expecting September to be especially notable.

I predict that the Feds will shortly announce that they won't be putting up benchmark interest rates and the stock market (completely over-reacting) will make significant gains in September.

Gold will fall as a result. Oil will stabilize at $50 a barrel.

Can't tell you any more ..........my crystal ball has fogged up.

With the China problems as well this could very well be the Big one

Fair enough, but do you think there will be problems by then end of this year ?

I don't know Demx9. Everything is so unpredictable at the moment - Greece, Chinese meltdown, ME conflicts, Russian political instability, oil surpluses, mixed signals from the US economy etc.

I wouldn't hedge any bets on anything. Let's just say that I'm not investing in equities (on bonds) myself right at the moment. I could either live to regret that decision or thank my lucky stars! I'll probably end up kicking myself (I usually do!)

Its already the 18th of October, where this god damn economic crash? Ive sold my house and kidneys to stock up on tin food reserves and now no economic crash, no kidneys, no house but praise the lord because i have 50 boxes of Heinz baked beans waiting for me.
Our economic plan is obviously a lot stronger than the OP's misguided predictions :lol:
