When financial markets crash, they do not do so in a vacuum.  There are always patterns, signs and indicators that tell us that something is about to happen.  In this article, I am going to share with you four patterns that are happening right now that also happened just prior to the great financial crisis of 2008.  These four signs are very strong evidence that a deflationary financial collapse is right around the corner

Instead of the hyperinflationary crisis that so many have warned about, what we are about to experience is a collapse in asset prices, a massive credit crunch and a brief period of absolutely crippling deflation.  The response by national governments and global central banks to this horrific financial crisis will cause tremendous inflation down the road, but that comes later.  What comes first is a crisis that will initially look a lot like 2008, but will ultimately prove to be much worse.  The following are 4 things that are happening right now that indicate that a deflationary financial collapse is imminent…

  2. Talked with two truck drivers this morning. Both said everything slowed way down. Usually with reefers they are busy for a while longer. One driver said his rate for a regular run was cut $300 in one week. That's a huge hit. We produce pork products for grocery stores across the country. We came to a dead stop in a week. This is our busy season with grilling and such. Not sure what's going on.
