In the recent market activity, we observed a range-bound performance with minor fluctuations. The Nifty Bank yesterday closed with a modest gain of around 25 points, while the midcap index rose by approximately 91 points. However, the overall market sentiment saw a dip of 143 points in the Sensex, and the Nifty also struggled to breach the levels around 19,004 to 19,500. In terms of institutional participation, net selling prevailed, with institutions selling over 1,700 crores and buying around 1,500 crores. This suggests that institutions remained net sellers in the market. One significant influence on the global markets was the hawkish comments made by Powell, which affected the US markets. The S&P witnessed a correction, breaking its longest winning streak since 2021, and the Asian markets followed suit. Additionally, oil prices hovered around $79 to $80 per barrel in response to these developments. Despite the Nifty indicating a lower start, macroeconomic factors may provide some support to cushion the market fall. In terms of corporate earnings, several companies, including Biocon, Coal India, ONGC, Tata Motors, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, and Tata Chemicals, are scheduled to release their results, which will be closely watched by investors.

THE THESIS: Biden is the disposable man. The Party gets to hide their attack on America in the man's chronic buffoonery. But, the patterns are clear as to what Biden is being made to install. We will need to live in God's way to thrive in the new Babylon. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: Daniel never allowed any pressure, even threats of painful death, to part him from God.Living with Lions: The Story of DanielTHE NEWS & COMMENT:The Figurehead, Biden “inherited” a nation that has been on the brink of energy independence, with a manufacturing sector being revived and, until The Party installed the Great Reset under cover of Covid, with low unemployment. Biden is now the Figurehead of a Country fresh off the boot on our collective necks, with many people utterly broken and willing to accept and even mouth absurdities on behalf of The Party. The people who run Biden, and their global partners, are using this period to accelerate the world into a new Babylonian period. The new push in that direction is with the fuel for exchanging our life's energy (our work) for life's necessities, food, water and shelter. Biden is being made to confuse people about our economy. [AUDIO] - BIDEN: "Look at what I've inherited and what I've done!" - When Biden took office, inflation was at 1.4% and gas prices were at $2.39/gal. Today, inflation is at 8.2% and gas prices are at $3.82/gal.Giving people loans after they shut down their business is not the same thing as a young person getting conned into a silly college loan. [AUDIO] - Biden: I don't want to hear it from Maga Republicans who had hundreds of thousands of dollars of debts, even millions of dollars in pandemic relief loans forgiven. Marjorie Taylor Greene, she and her husband got over $180,000 in business loansOur entire economy has been nudged and is now being shoved to the precipice. But, Biden pretends it's the same old story . . . [AUDIO] - Biden says Republicans “will crash the economy next year by threatening the full faith and credit of the US … unless we yield to their demand...”Their “demands?” That is the same old Democrat war cry about the insolvent Social Security Ponzi Scheme. The Republican establishment isn't doing a thing to stop the actual destruction of America's economy--”why don't we just ‘blow it up'” say the Technocrats--so they can install the new, command and control Fed's Powell lists his 4 qualifications for a US CBDC; A digital dollar must ensure user privacy, be “identity verifiable,” be “intermediated” and be widely accepted as a means of payment, the central bank chief said at an event hosted by the BIS.This clip is fascinating in two ways: The Member of Parliament fully admits that Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are population control devices.[AUDIO] - U.K. - July 2021 Steve Baker MP confirms the gov plans for Digital ID, social credit & programmable CBDCs. It isn't a theory, but it is a conspiracy against citizens freedoms, anonymity and privacy. And it's coming.The infrastructure is in place to enforce the CBDC. It was built for a flu, don't you know? But, people hated the “vaccine” passports. But, the friendly-sounding digital ID--which is the same thing--people are lapping up Utahns can now digitize their ID, partnership announced with Utah credit unionIt is a short bit of code to attach payments. I am quite certain this is already being tested. It's being done under the cover of the weather. Mastercard just outlined its digital ID push; Where payments meet digital ID.Thank the Lord, there are state AG's fighting back!

Even Fed's Powell now admits a #recessions is coming (and that the dollar might need help) Despite telling the world how the US economy is rock solid and that there's no sign of a potential recession, now even #JeromePowell is admitting that once again he was wrong. Following in the path of his claim that inflation was transitory, Powell is now admitting that the US may soon enter a recession. Which again seems a bit behind the curve, as most other people on the planet are not concerned about the US potentially entering a recession, but in dealing with the signs that it's already happened. The #FederalReserve chairman also had some unusual comments about central bank digital currencies, and how they might be needed to maintain the #dollar's status as the reserve currency, and to find out more, click to watch today's show now! - To find out more about Reyna Silver go to: https://reynasilver.com/ - To get Arcadia silver videos delivered straight to your email inbox click here: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/email-signup/ - To get on the waiting list for your very own ´Silver Chopper Ben´sterling silver figurine click here: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/get-a-chopper-ben/ - To get your paperback or audio copy of The Big Silver Short go to: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/thebigsilvershort/ - To see the evidence of manipulative behavior in the silver market (as well as how you can send it to your local regulators and Congressional representatives) click here: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/cftc-complaint/ - To sign the petition to ban JP Morgan from having any involvement in the silver industry click here: https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/ban-jp-morgan-from-trading-gold-and-silver - Follow Arcadia Economics on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArcadiaEconomic - To receive updates about Arcadia option trading events: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/options/ - #silver #silverprice And remember to get outside and have some fun every once in a while!:) (URL0VD)Subscribe to Arcadia Economics on Soundwise

Dr. Clarence Lusane, author, professor, and activist, joins us to discuss Afghanistan. The withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan and the subsequent seizure of power by the Taliban has sent a message to American vassals and collaborators worldwide. Also, it is clear that US presidents have repeatedly lied to the American people about Afghanistan and many other military engagements.Dr. Jack Rasmus, professor in economics and politics at St. Mary's College in California, joins us to discuss the economy. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated on Tuesday that the covid pandemic has forever altered the US economy and that we must adapt to those changes. Dr. Jack tells us whether the government's response is adequate to mitigate the pain and suffering of the American people. Nick Davies, peace activist and author of "Blood on Our Hands: The American Invasion of Iraq," joins us to discuss Ramzy Baroud's article in Mint Press News titled "Greed and Consumption: Why the World is Burning." He warns that global warming is the "outcome of a destructive pattern instigated and sustained by capitalism."Professor Peter Kuznick, author and historian, joins us to discuss Operation Cyclone. The US ran a covert war in Afghanistan long before acknowledging their actions. Did US training and support of Osama Bin Laden's Mujahideen fighters give rise to the Taliban and other Islamist organizations in the region?George Koo, journalist, social activist, international business consultant, and chemical engineer, joins us to discuss China. US Air Force leaders are arguing that they need new technology to "scare" China, but is this simply another cry for massive military expenditures to enrich the war profiteers? Also, China has stated that they are willing to work with the US on the Afghanistan issue under certain circumstances.Dan Lazare, investigative journalist and author of "America's Undeclared War," joins us to discuss the results of the fall of Kabul and how it affects US foreign policy worldwide. Some observers argue that the sight of Afghan collaborators fleeing the city and falling from departing US aircraft marks the end of the US as the unipolar world power. Ted Rall, political cartoonist and syndicated columnist, joins us to discuss propaganda. Ted reviews the propositions in a new book titled "Manufacturing Militarism: US Government Propaganda in the War on Terror'' by Christopher Coyne and Abigail Hall. The duo of writers cite example after example of the US media acting as public relations operatives for the US empire's neocon war machine.Nino Pagliccia, activist and writer, joins us to discuss Haiti and Peru. The government of Nicholas Maduro in Venezuela has shipped 30,000 kilos of non-perishable food items and medicine to the people of Haiti in the aftermath of a devastating earthquake and storm. Also, many observers fear that the US is plotting a coup attempt in Peru.

Week starts on a bearish note but Amazon Prime day and strong PMI data could improve the investor mood. ECB's Lagarde and Fed's Powell will likely reiterate their support to the economy, yet strong data could continue playing in favour of a stronger US dollar. Gold, copper and lumber remain under a decent selling pressure, while we question what's the matter for a broader rage of commodities should have been good for inflation hedging. US crude pushes higher after Iran elections raising difficulties for a nuclear deal. On the corporate calendar, Nike, FedEx and Blackberry are due to release earnings this week and Nike's Xinjiang headache could weigh on numbers and on forecasts.
