"Peoplenomics is Great! What a Bargain!" - reader

Readers call our weekly in depth reports "brilliant and entertaining" and the "best newsletter value out there."   And a recent compliment, unsolicited:

"George, I’ve worked for two presidents, and am fairly well ‘connected’ myself; but I have to say that your analysis/insights into current events/disasters are unsurpassed in my experience."

Each week, George Ure, the financial reporter who produces the popular - free - daily economic news reports at www.UrbanSurvival.com and www.IndependenceJournal.com devotes a whole day to creating an in depth look at coming events.  These weekly, in-depth reports, posted around 4 PM on Sunday afternoons, cover trends and many news events before they happen

 

Recent articles include the coming high cost of protein, and how a stock market can crash - while holding near historic levels.

 

For a fairly current look at topics discussed, please click here.
