How to Survive the Obama Depression
by James Dale Davidson
Most Americans stand to lose big time. Millions are being wiped-out as we speak.
But a few shrewd investors will make great family fortunes.
One man made 2,564% from similar market conditions... turning $39,000 into more than $100 million... (I'll tell you how in just a moment.)
That's the way it is with severe economic downturns.
There are many losers.
But the few winners win big... like Jesse Livermore... Jim Rogers... and Sir John Templeton... to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
In this letter I'll share with you a strategy that you can use to secure unprecedented wealth for yourself and your family during the worst economic meltdown in 80 years.
But first, you have to understand the 'Obama Depression' and how it is unfolding.
I have a controversial idea for you: Barack Obama is the Herbert Hoover of the 21st century.
Like Hoover, Obama will deservedly get the blame once this 'recession' turns into a Depression with a capital “D” on his watch.
That’s because Obama will use the worst financial crisis in 75 years to start a ‘recovery’ program that dooms the United States to years of economic pain.
Already, Obama is following in Hoover’s footsteps in trying costly attempts to stimulate the economy with government spending, while raising taxes.
Except this time it’s worse.
Because the scale of Obama’s plan is more ruinous than anything Hoover could get away with 80 years ago.
“Some Sort of Superman”
Hoover and Obama came to the White House as men who were widely hailed for their smarts. Hoover did not attend high school. He educated himself until he was 17, when he entered the inaugural class of Stanford University.
Americans held Hoover in the highest esteem when he became president.
In fact, many considered him a superman.
In the early 1920s, no less an observer than Franklin Roosevelt said of Hoover, “He is certainly a wonder, and I wish we could make him president. There couldn’t be a better one.”
Hoover told a reporter, soon after his landslide election in 1928, that his inflated public image could end up his “undoing.”
“They have a conviction that I am a sort of superman,” he went on, “that no problem is beyond my capacity. If some unprecedented calamity should come upon the nation [. . .] I would be sacrificed to the unreasoning disappointment of a people who expect too much.”
Obama’s reputation may be in store for a similar collapse when his eager supporters discover they are saddled with “change” they can’t believe in.
A Tale of Two Social Engineers
More important, Hoover was a social engineer – a central planner – as is Obama.
Hoover started the Efficiency Movement, with the belief that a technical solution could be found for every economic and social problem.
And his enthusiasm for government mandates to achieve reform was more plausible eight decades ago than it is today.
He had not yet had the chance to observe the instructive failure of the late, not so great, Soviet Union and the hash that central planners made of economies in other countries in the decades after World War II.
Obama champions behavioral economics, a left-leaning school of economists that holds that people don’t always behave rationally but can be “nudged” into changing behavior. Among many behavioral economists on Obama’s team are Cass Sunstein, Obama’s new regulatory czar, Richard Thaler, Dan Ariely, and Daniel Kahneman of Princeton.
Where Obama is concerned, change was not just a campaign slogan.
It is an obsession.
He is trying to use behavioral economics to transform America, much as Hoover hoped to use the Efficiency Movement to eradicate poverty and solve other early 20th century social problems.
Let’s hope the Obamaites’ conclusion that people don’t always behave rationally is an overly optimistic one, because they are intent on “nudging” people into doing things that don’t make a lick of sense.
Stimulus on Steroids
President Hoover invented stimulus spending to combat depression.
He pushed federal spending up by 57% while he was president.
Hoover was the first president to try and stop debt liquidation and shore up broken banks and businesses.
Obama has put Hoover’s interventionist program on steroids – with some big differences.
In the second issue of Crisis Strategy Alert, I examined how Obama’s main ‘solutions’ to the financial crisis bear no logical connection to the problem they purport to address.
Obama offered three cures for the credit crisis:
- national health insurance,
- creating an entitlement to a college education, (what I call “subprime college degrees”)
- imposing a stiff carbon tax.
The one thing these three policy ideas share, other than having nothing to do with the collapse of credit, is their expense.
Obama’s Health Care Mirage
We don’t often see it this way, but U.S. health care is already the most inefficient in the world.
The U.S. spends more per capita on health care than any other country.
We spend three times more than Japan, and twice as much as Canada, France, Germany, Britain and Australia.
In 2007, health care spending in the U.S. exceeded GDP per person in China by $1,321.
In other words, the Chinese run their entire economy on less than the U.S. spends on health care.
The U.S. also has one of the fastest growth rates in health care spending among developed countries.
Obama wants to solve this problem by spending even more.
Travel agents have made a booming business for years by organizing medical tourism from the U.S. to Brazil, India and other countries.
Operations performed by doctors of the first caliber can be had for one-fifth their cost in the U.S. – travel included.
Heart bypass procedures that cost $56,000 in the U.S. can be had for $8,000.
Now Obama is proposing a major expansion of federal spending on health care, even though the government can’t afford the health insurance programs it has already undertaken.
With Medicare’s finances on shaky footing, Obama wants to insure another 46 million people, the cost of which would all be borne by upper income households.
Tax collections from the top 5% of earners would have to leap by 40% if they alone were to pay for the new program.
Perhaps my “selfish” old-fashioned way of looking at things is getting the better of me, but I can’t imagine a 40% tax hike on the top 5% of earners being well received.
That logic was obvious over 75 years ago when Andrew Mellon, the Treasury secretary to President Coolidge and who stayed in that position for the start of the Hoover administration, said:
“Any man of energy and initiative in this country can get what he wants out of life. But when initiative is crippled by legislation or by a tax system which denies him the right to receive a reasonable share of his earnings, then he will no longer exert himself and the country will be deprived of the energy on which its continued greatness depends.”
You don’t have to be a supply-side fanatic to know that few people will want to get out of bed early to make the extra cash that would put them into the top 5% of earners.
Doing so would force them to take on the health care costs of six other families.
A Trillion Dollars for
“Subprime” College Degrees?
Obama’s second fantastically expensive mirage is the promise of a college education for everyone.
This is a recipe for the certain impoverishment of the United States in the cause of promoting equality.
Think about how much a college education costs.
According to CNNMoney, the average annual cost for a four-year private college is $30,367 (2006-07 school year). The average cost of a four-year public college is $12, 796. And, of course, some of the elite private colleges can cost $200,000 for four years.
Average college costs have risen faster than inflation for more than a decade.
So in calculating the cost of a college entitlement, you can’t really count on the four-year costs being merely four times recent first year costs. But put that aside.
Assume the cheapest imaginable alternative for this fantastic project. Assume that the new subprime degrees will all be issued by public four-year colleges at an average cost of $51, 184 a student.
How much will this cost?
Before Obama, 27% of America’s adult population held bachelor’s degrees or higher. Although the percentage has been rising, the implication is that roughly one person in four earns a college degree.
That means three-quarters do not earn four-year college degrees.
There are roughly 36,000,000 young people to whom Obama’s promise of a college education is directed.
If 75% of them are to be funded to receive a college degree, that implies an outlay of $1.35 trillion.
A $1.35 Trillion Waste of Money
This is a promise to spend $1.35 trillion to buy less than nothing in improved economic output.
It may seem a harsh judgment. But look more closely.
A 2006 survey by the U.S. Census Bureau revealed that college drop outs constituted 19.5% of the U.S. population – even before Obama conceived of a new college education entitlement on the preposterous basis that it would fend off future credit crises.
As analyst Marty Nemko points out in a report titled “America’s Most Overrated Product: the Bachelor’s Degree,” the value of a college education is rapidly falling as standards erode.
The illusion of the Obamaites that giving everyone a college education will reduce inequality in earnings capabilities is belied by mounting evidence that marginal students are mostly wasting time and money, while being diverted from more productive activity.
In this sense, sitting around in class is not a productive activity.
In fact, it is a waste of time and resources if you are not learning something that will repay the effort put into education and the cost of providing it.
Suppose that before you could start a business or take a job you had to spend four years studying some obscure topic from the remote regions of particle physics, such as compactifications of spaces into Calabi-Yau manifolds.
You might learn something… but precious little with any direct bearing on your life.
It is no doubt important that someone understand particle physics.
But even if particle physicists earn more than non-particle physicists, it would not follow that giving everyone training in particle physics would make everyone richer.
Instead it would make everyone poorer.
Most people who don’t study particle physics, like most people who don’t go to college, have no aptitude for it – much less any need to understand it.
Slipping Standards
Nemko points to the meager success rate in college of low-ranking high school graduates.
Among high school students who graduated in the bottom 40 percent of their classes, and whose first institutions were four-year colleges, two-thirds had not earned diplomas eight and a half years later. That figure is from a study cited by Clifford Adelman, a former research analyst at the U.S. Department of Education and now a senior research associate at the Institute for Higher Education Policy.
Even worse, most of those college dropouts leave the campus having learned little of value, and with a mountain of debt and devastated self-esteem from their unsuccessful struggles. Perhaps worst of all, even those who do manage to graduate too rarely end up in careers that require a college education.
So it's not surprising that when you hop into a cab or walk into a restaurant, you're likely to meet workers who spent years and their family's life savings on college, only to end up with a job they could have done as a high-school dropout.
Such students are not aberrations. Today, amazingly, a majority of the students whom colleges admit are grossly underprepared. Only 23 percent of the 1.3 million high-school graduates of 2007 who took the ACT examination were ready for college-level work in the core subjects of English, math, reading, and science.”
Perhaps more surprising, even those high-school students who are fully qualified to attend college are increasingly unlikely to derive enough benefit to justify the often six-figure cost and four to six years (or more) it takes to graduate. Research suggests that more than 40 percent of freshmen at four-year institutions do not graduate in six years.
Colleges trumpet the statistic that, over their lifetimes, college graduates earn more than nongraduates, but that's terribly misleading.
You could lock the collegebound in a closet for four years, and they'd still go on to earn more than the pool of non-collegebound – they're brighter, more motivated, and have better family connections.
Nemko underscores a point that is crucial to understanding why Obama’s college entitlement is a recipe for undermining productivity in the United States – and thus reducing incomes.
The past advantage of college graduates in the job market is eroding. Ever more students attend college at the same time as ever more employers are automating and sending offshore ever more professional jobs, and hiring part-time workers.
Many college graduates are forced to take some very nonprofessional positions, such as driving a truck or tending bar.
How much do students at four-year institutions actually learn? Surprisingly little.
A 2006 study by the Pew Charitable Trusts found that half of college seniors scored below "proficient" levels on a test of basic tasks. In other words, 50% of U.S. college seniors could not understand the arguments of newspaper editorials or compare credit card offers. Almost 20% of seniors had only basic quantitative skills. The students could not estimate if their car had enough gas to get to the gas station.
According to the Spellings Report, which was released by a recent federal commission that examined the future of American higher education, things are getting even worse.
Over the past decade, literacy among college graduates has actually declined […] According to the most recent National Assessment of Adult Literacy, for instance, the percentage of college graduates deemed proficient in prose literacy has actually declined from 40 to 31 percent in the past decade […] Employers report repeatedly that many new graduates they hire are not prepared to work, lacking the critical thinking, writing and problem-solving skills needed in today's workplaces.
To squander more than $1 trillion by entitling everyone to a subprime college degree is a recipe for falling depressionary times.
Cap-and-Trade: Tightening the Noose
By far the most damaging of Obama’s ”fixes” is the proposed cap-and-trade carbon tax.
This $2 trillion tax is the economic equivalent of putting a noose around the neck of the economy and cinching it tight.
This is another case of Obama revisiting one of Hoover’s mistakes and raising it to an even more destructive level.
In the Revenue Act of 1932, Hoover levied excise taxes on a wide range of goods and services from lubricating oil, tires, automobiles and trucks to matches, chewing gum, soft drinks and electricity.
Obama proposes to do something similar through his cap-and-trade carbon tax.
It will result in far more punishing increases in electricity costs to consumers than Hoover’s regressive excise taxes did.
Don’t take my word for it.
Obama admitted as much in a 2008 interview with the San Francisco Chronicle.
Under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket [...] because I’m capping greenhouse gasses, coal power plants, natural gas […] you name it […] whatever the industry was, they would have to retro-fit their operations. That will cost money [...] they will pass that money on to the consumers.
He says the industries will “pass money on to the consumers.”
What he really means is the costs will be directly passed on to consumers.
When Obama proposed his carbon tax, he indicated it would raise $646 billion.
But when top Obama economic aide Jason Furman briefed top Senate staffers on the program on Feb. 26, he predicted the new tax would raise $2 trillion over eight years.
This implies higher annual costs for energy and energy-intensive goods of $3,100 a family.
That will slaughter real living standards now in order to maybe… possibly… make the world a few degrees cooler in a thousand years.
A Protectionist Nightmare
In emulation of Hoover’s Smoot-Hawley protectionist tariff, the bill incorporating Obama’s carbon tax contains “carbon energy protection” – border taxes on imports from countries that don’t impose high taxes on energy production and manufacturing.
Such protectionist measures will likely trigger an economically destructive trade war.
As a foretaste of what is to come, Obama has already started a trade war through a provision in his $800 billion stimulus package that banned 98 Mexican trucks from U.S. roads.
Never mind that the Mexicans had the right under NAFTA to bring trucks to the U.S. and that the 98 Mexican trucks the U.S. grudgingly allowed in were just a bare chemical trace of the approximately 6.5 million long-haul trucks on U.S. highways.
Nonetheless, the Obama administration caved into pressures from the Teamsters Union to ban all Mexican drivers from U.S. roads.
This NAFTA violation caused Mexico to retaliate by imposing tariffs on 90 goods affecting $2.4 billion in U.S. exports. And it placed 40,000 American jobs at risk.
Cap-and-Trade:
A Gift to Corporations
The $2 trillion raised by Obama’s cap-and-trade carbon tax will be dwarfed by the money it transfers from consumers to well-connected corporations that are lining up to game the “cap-and-trade” schemes.
General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt is ecstatic over Obama’s carbon tax.
In a letter in early March he said the Obama administration will be a profitable “financier” of GE’s recovery and a “key partner.”
GE has lobbied heavily for greenhouse gas restrictions. The company spent $46,304 a day on lobbying Washington during Q4 of 2008.
During the same time period GE’s stock lost 30% of its value.
The company wasn’t wasting its money. It has set up a subsidiary called Greenhouse Gas Services that invests in and intends to manage trade in greenhouse gas credits.
This may not be “change you can believe in,” but you better be ready for it.
It is coming your way.
A punishing combination of crony capitalism and pandering that will make Herbert Hoover’s policies in the Great Depression seem like “the good old days.”
How To Protect Yourself
from the Obama Depression
The severe economic downturn ushered in by the policies of the Obama Administration is creating an extremely dangerous market for investors.
Investors will be shocked by their losses when it's all over with.
They're stunned now after the Wipeout of 2008. But it's just the beginning.
In fact, there will be hardly any investors left by the time this financial storm passes.
People will loathe the very idea of investing. Only then will it be a bottom.
But a savvy few will come out of this ahead … some even with great fortunes.
I'd like to offer you a way out today.
Read to the end of this letter to learn about a strategy you need to use immediately to protect your investments and profit during the Obama Depression.
And when I say 'profit', I mean it. There's no better time to get wealthy than during a panic. That's when assets are mispriced and great bargains can be had.
One investor I’ve studied extensively managed to turn $39,000 into over $100 million in a crisis similar to what we are facing now.
Don't Get Mad, Get Rich
Through Crisis Investing
Floyd Bostwick Odlum, a Michigan-born attorney, started out in 1923 with a grubstake of $39,000, which he pooled from friends and his wife. He was 31 years old.
Within two years, he had turned this small investment into $700,000.
He then made two truly brilliant investment decisions…
In the run-up to the Great Crash of 1929, every Tom, Dick and Harry was dabbling in “the market.” Investors were euphoric, believing that stock prices had reached “a permanently high plateau.”
But not Odlum.
He had done well in the bull run of the 1920s and knew the party couldn’t go on forever. So he sold most of his investments before the crash of 1929.
When the stock market crashed in October 1929, Odlum had $14,000,000 in cash and short-term notes to take advantage of opportunities created by the crisis.
He then made his second brilliant move. He used his cash pile to buy undervalued stocks in companies at crash-reduced prices.
All told, within 15 years, he had grown his initial stake of $39,000 into over $100 million.
Odlum was not the only one, not by a long shot...
One Argentine investor I know made half a billion dollars by investing in real estate when Argentina was in the depths of its own financial crisis in 2001.
His name is Eduardo Elzstain.
He convinced billionaire investor George Soros that Argentina would see huge real estate price increases after their crisis passed.
Soros gave him $10 million, which Elzstain multiplied into $500 million.
Jesse Livermore was another widely successful crisis investor.
He successfully predicted and then made $3 million dollars from the crash of 1907.
And he was worth $100 million after his short-selling profits from the crash of 1929 came into play.
Or the late Sir John Templeton.
In 1939, he went into his boss’s office and begged for a $10,000 loan.
He got it and invested the money in every stock trading on a major exchange for $1 or less. Then he watched these stocks skyrocket as the U.S. came out of the Great Depression.
And let’s not forget about Jim Rogers, who started out in his twenties with only $600 in his pocket.
He’s the first to short at the top of a frenzied market and the first to buy when there’s blood in the streets. He was worth $14 million by the time he was 37.
These guys made huge windfalls during financial collapses like the one we’re witnessing now.
I've also made tens of millions with crisis investing and can show you how to do it too.
Most so-called gurus can't say that. They talk a good game, but don't actually walk-the-walk.
I don't make my money selling advice. I make it as a private investor.
Let me introduce myself…
Putting 30 Years of Investment
Experience to Work for YOU
My name is James Dale Davidson, and over 30 years as a specialist “crisis investor” have taught me to tell things like they are.
(There’s enough confusion about this crisis without adding more dung on the heap.)
My years studying financial collapses have also taught me that it’s always the hard working… the savers… the taxpayers… the folks who “play by the rules” that suffer the most.
And I’m sick of it.
I’m sick of watching bankers get bailed out while taxpayers take the hit.
And I’m sick of watching Wall Street top brass ride into the sunset with big bonuses paid by you and me for the peachy keen job they did of bankrupting the world.
Just about everyone is getting bailed out except for the folks who make up the backbone of America!
Folks like YOU.
I’m one of the lucky ones. I’ve been fortunate enough to escape this crisis without being sucked into the vortex of destruction.
Eight years ago, I retired from the investment advisory world and began to live the life I always dreamed of.
I remarried to a former Miss Brazil and started to split my time between my home near Washington, DC, my home in South America and my award-winning winery in New Zealand.
But I refuse to sit idly by while Wall Street’s and Washington’s incompetence tears apart the lives of decent, hard working Americans.
How We Can Both
Get Even Together…
I’ve been warning investors about the dangers of a financial collapse for over 20 years.
In my 1987 book Blood in the Streets: Investment Profits in a World Gone Mad. Later, in my 1994 book The Great Reckoning: Protecting Your Self in the Coming Depression.
Both books were bestsellers.
And you only have to look at the titles to see that they were both aimed at preparing investors for the kind of trouble we’re experiencing now.
My warning was loud and clear.
In Blood in the Streets, I wrote:
The coming years will be a bad time to be ill-advised. A time fraught with snares for anyone who is unprepared. We could be on the verge of financial upheaval… Many people will suffer staggering losses.
And in The Great Reckoning, I wrote:
The credit cycle unwinding is more powerful than the capacity of governments to bring it under control. A chain reaction of crises is likely to spread as confidence erodes and markets force government to contract the welfare state.
But the mainstream press didn’t listen.
Instead, I got called the “Prince of Doom” because of my unfashionable views on the U.S. economy.
Fighting Irresponsible Government
I’ve spent most of my adult life taking on an over-reaching government.
In 1974 I founded the National Taxpayers Union, which for 35 years has been protecting your right and that of every single American’s to keep what they’ve earned.
NTU’s a nonprofit, non-partisan citizen group whose (350,000) members work every day for lower taxes and smaller government at all levels.
In September 1989, I testified before the House Ways and Means Committee about the dangers of government sponsored enterprises (GSEs) such as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.
It was one of the first oversight hearings on GSEs.
This is what I told the committee:
One of the unfortunate lessons of the Savings and Loan debacle is that off-budget activities, loan guarantees and quasi-government functions can have a tremendous impact on the federal budget … Should a similar fiscal catastrophe hit GSEs, bailout costs could multiply to levels that would not currently seem credible.
A lot of good that did!
Thanks to assurances from slick executives that the GSEs they ran were well-capitalized (and amid multimillion-dollar GSE lobbying operations) the house committee ignored my warning.
Had Congress listened, it might have been better equipped to avoid the recent sub-prime debacle.
In my book The Great Reckoning: Protecting Yourself in the Coming Depression (which I wrote alongside former editor of The Times of London, Lord William Rees-Mogg) I made this stark warning:
Debt cannot go on compounding forever. At the rate it expanded in the 1980s, interest payments would consume 100% of GNP by the year 2015. No such thing will happen. Long before debt reaches the extreme, it will be wiped away. Either an economic deflation will cause the financial system to implode, or a political inflation of an extreme kind will obliterate much of the value of the debts denominated in dollars. One way or another we expect a great reckoning. A settling of accounts. We expect the long economic boom and credit expansion that began with WWII to come to an end.
The credit expansion surpassed our estimates at the time.
But the “settling of accounts” Lord Rees-Mogg and I warned of is now here.
Over the years, I've also helped investors protect their wealth and profit by accurately forecasting some of the biggest political shifts of our time…
Events such as the death of the Soviet Union… the fall of the Berlin Wall… the rise of Islamic terrorism… and the current bank bailouts.
These predictions were deemed ‘impossible’ when they were made. (Newsweek even described my forecasts as "an unthinking attack on reason.")
But subsequent events have proven me right. (Just as you will see with the Obama Depression.)
A Proven Record of Building Wealth
Apart from writing books, I also edited one of the most successful trading services of its time, Strategic Investment.
From the beginning of its publication in 1984 through January 1987, the Strategic Investment speculative portfolio averaged an annual growth of 252%.
It was also rated by an independent service as outperforming 99% of its competitors.
Through Strategic Investment, I helped subscribers make big gains time and time again.
- I nearly tripled readers' money on AMDL, developers of a new technology for the monitoring and early detection of cancer.
- I bagged gains of 405% for subscribers on Philip Morris by accurately predicting a bounce in the stock following president Bill Clinton’s anti-tobacco legislation
- My oil trading predictions pointed the way to 900% profits for readers
- I told readers of a 100% legal way to save $138,000 in taxes
- I gave subscribers an opportunity to turn a quick 617% profit on the devaluation of the British pound. (Each $4,050 became $25,000 in just two months.)
I have also personally generated significant wealth by exploiting economic collapses similar to the one we’re experiencing now.
I made $10 million by playing the global denationalization of resources that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union. (Some of the former Soviet republics later invited me to work as an official economic advisor.)
I later seized a "blood in the streets" opportunity in Argentina.
I invested in the Banco Comafi in 1995, just a few months after an Argentine banking crisis.
The bank has since grown twenty-fold and has emerged as one of the leading private banks in Argentina.
About 15 years ago, I invested in seven miles of prime oceanfront property in New Zealand.
At the time, New Zealand was an undiscovered backwater. But I realized the value of the beautiful land and snatched it up for pennies on the dollar.
And during the dot-com bubble, I profited as an early investor in Newsmax.com, now one of the most successful conservative news websites on the internet.
More recently, my Brazilian wife has given me valuable connections within the upper echelons of South American business and real estate.
(You would be amazed what you can learn from these people. Talk about financial collapses! They’ve seen them all.)
And my experience and connections in resource-rich South America are proving extremely valuable as the U.S. plunges deeper and deeper into recession.
Thanks to years of study and research, I understand how this crisis will unfold better than most of the financial writers out there...
As of the writing of this report, the average recommendation in my portfolio is up over 10% in just the first four months of 2009. That's an annualized return of over 60% on average!
I don't know of many advisors out there who are delivering those kinds of returns safely in this dangerous market environment.
Just like in every crisis, a small number of investors will not only survive but also prosper.
And the good news is that by acting now you could well be on your way to becoming one of them.
However, during a financial catastrophe of the magnitude of the Obama Depression smart investors may hope for the best, but they prepare for the worst.
Start Building a
Legacy of Wealth Right Away
As I’ve already told you, I refuse to sit idly by while the current collapse steals people’s retirements away from them.
That’s just not right.
So I’ve made a special arrangement to publish all my crisis investing recommendations as part of new investment advisory service called Crisis Strategy Alert.
It's dedicated to seeing YOU through the difficult times ahead.
Now, I know many investors are trying to sit the crisis out by staying in cash and U.S. Treasuries.
But the next stages of the Obama Depression point to a lower value for the U.S. dollar.
That means that if you're holding dollars and dollar denominated assets you will take severe losses.
That's why I have created a safe crisis investing strategy to take advantage of the mispricing of assets that happens during severe downturns.
A word of warning…
This is not a “high-flying” trading service based on some fancy new investing technique. I take your financial future and my own far too seriously to put them at risk with high-stakes bets.
In addition to the upside potential, each one of my recommendations are rock-solid wealth protectors…
Even though nothing in today’s markets can be 100% risk-free, my crisis investing strategy seeks at all times to safeguard your money as well as offering significant upside gains.
Here's an overview of how it works:
- I will show you how to ride out the deflationary part of the slump with safe positions in special types of bonds and dividend plays. The key here is to generate plenty of double-digit income streams.
- I will show you how to save tens of thousands and protect yourselves from the coming Obama tax onslaught with 100% legal asset protection strategies.
- We will then begin to look at promising emerging market opportunities and recommend positions in world-class businesses at bargain prices.
- I will give you opportunities to snap up real assets and miners to profit once inflation kicks in and sends commodity prices surging again.
- Finally, I will help you position yourself to profit by triple-digits from the demise of the dollar. We will “bet against the false premise,” as George Soros would say.
That's the crisis investing model I have developed to help you get rich from the Obama Depression... instead of getting wiped-out...
Every month I'd like to send you a detailed report on how to implement this strategy with specific recommendations.
That's what you'll get should you join my Crisis Strategy Alert service today...
Immediate access to the complete Crisis Strategy Alert Portfolio. You'll find out about all my open recommendations. With simple 'Buy', 'Sell', or 'Hold' indicators and prices so you'll be able to immediately and safely position yourself to take advantage of the strategy I've outlined in this letter.
At least 24 more specific crisis investing recommendations a year – These are all fully actionable recommendations that you can execute immediately. I will tell you when to take the positions, how long to hold them for and when to sell them.
Crisis Strategy Alert Updates – The markets don’t follow publishing schedules. Especially in the middle of a financial crisis. So if a profit play presents itself that's too good to miss, you’ll receive and email from me alerting you of a chance to buy or sell.
* How to Triple Your Money in the Coming REIT Collapse – This special report shows you a unique opportunity to profit from the continued slide in commercial property. But you have to act fast to take advantage of this one because the REIT market is starting to slide fast and faster.
The Discount Retailer Profits Report – This special report reveals an easy way to cash-in on the fundamental change that has taken place in the American consumer since the credit collapse. Note: We've already seen good upside from these discount retailers, but we're confident there's still significant upside there.
Notes from the Investment Unground – This is a DAILY supplemental email newsletter that will keep you well-informed as the Obama Depression develops. It will give you market intelligence and money making ideas from a unique 'undergound' perspective. You won't learn about this stuff on CNBC. I personally contribute insights to Notes at least once a week.
With all these tools at your disposal you will have everything you need to build an impressive fortune during the Obama Depression.
So, you are probably wondering, how much does all this research cost?
Well, you'll be pleased to know that Crisis Strategy Alert regularly sells for just $495 per year.
I have urged my publisher to keep the price low, so that we can help as many people as possible to NOT get whacked by the Obama Depression.
Obviously it's something I feel passionate about. I've spent most of my working life preparing for the economic situation we now find ourselves in.
Currently about 5,000 savvy people receive my alerts. Here's what a few of them had to say:
Cleared 23% on the half sold! Thanks
CSA subscriber Harry A.
Great guidance on this one James. Actually, I used the options and closed out 2/3 of my position yesterday (to pay for the initial play)
CSA subscriber Paul B.
On your recommendation, I bought 1,000 shares at 4.63 on Friday and today sold 500 share at 6.36 for a 37% gain in less than a week! Thanks and keep 'em coming!
CSA Subcriber Don D.
Bought at 4.90 sold 50% at 6.40 30% profit THANKS!!!
CSA Subscriber Randolph B.
I closed out my FAS yesterday, 3/18. I bot @ 4.80 and sold at 7.00 for a 45.8% return over 13 days. Not too bad, eh?
CSA Subscriber Joe T.
Thank You for the recommendation. I now have 1,100 more shares than the original purchase and $10,000 in the bank in two weeks.

I hope that you will consider joining them.
$495 for 12 months is a tiny fraction of what I could charge for an advisory service that generates tens of thousands of dollars in profits for subscribers in a matter of weeks, sometimes days...
However, this month of May, I want to really beef up the ranks of subscribers to Crisis Strategy Alert.
And as a reader of this Obama Depression report I'd like to give you the best possible offer I can...
For this month only for just $149 you can receive an entire year of my crisis investing recommendations.
That's less than half the regular price.
I know that crisis investing is not for everyone… And it’s no skin off my nose… I’ll simply open your membership to the next applicant.
But, your satisfaction with my service is 100% guaranteed. For the first 3 months, 90 days, you can get a full refund if you are not making money from my recommendations or for any reason whatsoever.
So simply fill out the Membership form. Then read the first few issues of Crisis Strategy Alert, the special reports and the updates. And decide for yourself if this research service is right for you.
Of course, there’s a lot to lose if you do not take decisive action now to safeguard your investments.
So if you decide not take me up on this offer, I urge you make other arrangements to protect yourself as the Obama Depression continues.
I sincerely hope you'll join me now and start building your secure financial future now.
To your success,
James Dale Davidson
