The Trends Journal was the first magazine to forecast a Donald Trump White House victory and the first to call the Trump market rally. Here’s what’s next and what to prepare for. Go back one year ago, following the humiliating defeat of Hillary “I still can’t believe I lost” Clinton, to reality TV champion Trump’s White House win that the mainstream media...
Trend Forecast
On Nov. 13, Gerald Celente, in our Trends in the News broadcast, forecast the coming peak of a strong Trump rally. As long as economic growth moderately increases, so too will the stock market. Therefore, considering that markets rose significantly around the world during Trump’s first year in office, they’ll continue the moderate-growth trend line America is on. We are...
Democrat denial; progressive/liberal movements are dead
Oh, how Democratic liberal women hate Donald Trump, the disgusting man who brags on tape about groping women, “grab ’em by the pussy,” and lays out how rich, powerful guys like him are magnets for ladies who look up to celebrities and will put out for the high life. How dare anyone compare crude Republican sexual sleazeball Trump to Democrat Bill “I...

Liberals, progressives and leftists… these are antiquated, meaningless labels of what they once symbolized. With high voter distrust toward the party by millennials who believe the nomination of their candidate, Bernie Sanders, was stolen by Democratic Party leaders, older Democrats have proven they are unable to revitalize or redirect the party. There is no progressive movement driving the Democratic Party,...
“No” news from Dumfukistan
The Information Age! A world of the Internet of Things, a smartphone society that lets you track down whatever you want to know, wherever you are, at any time, by Googling facts or asking Alexa. Under this high-tech formula, it is assumed that by tapping into the 21st century Alexandrian Library, society would seek out facts to raise public...
Trend Forecast
As current trends evolve, the general public will become less informed and more detached. The news business is virtually dead. Newspapers and major media outlets have shrunk reporting resources by over 60 percent in just the last decade. As for broadcast news, there’s no variety, no balance, and the same talking heads and paid analysts spinning their agendas are brought...
Cryptocurrencies: Believe the banksters or trust the trends
Cryptocurrencies are a Ponzi Scheme, a dying fad, a fool’s folly, backed by nothing, living in a cyber world and floating on a digital cloud. Top bank officials and business-media mouthpieces across the continents won’t stop bad-mouthing cryptos, calling them Ponzi schemes and ridiculing the millions of believers around the world who have invested in them, use them and profit...
Trend Forecast
As more nations worldwide go cashless, and the range of new cryptocurrency offerings widens, the general public’s purchase of digital currencies — especially following the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s decision to launch Bitcoin futures trading — and investors to invest in them, increases. But the speed at which digital-currency investment is increasing worldwide is prompting some governments to regulate, control or...
The facts behind globalization
For the last half century, we’ve heard it again and again: Globalization is an irreversible force whose irresistible pressures were destined to shrink, and eventually erase, differences separating people and countries and regions in which they have been embedded for millennia. This utopian vision has been enshrined in best-selling books such as Tom Friedman’s “The World is Flat,” and often...

The number of national entities is growing. Europe alone has 50 percent more countries than it had some 40 years ago. Many more potentially new nations are waiting in the wings. As we write, Catalonia is considering seceding from Spain. Kurdistan may split from Iraq (and later possibly from Turkey and Iran). Scotland is likely to try again to separate...
