"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.
