It appears this is in fact a true statement, “There are no free markets anymore, just interventions.”
August 13 (King World News) – Gregory Mannarino, writing for the Trends Journal: This is THE TRUTH. Historical models on the economy and the markets are failing… but not because the fundamentals have changed, but because they’ve been hijacked.
We have truly entered a financial new age, where the past no longer guides the present and certainly not the future.
For decades, investors, and analysts like myself, along with economists, have relied on well-established patterns and models like interest rate cycles, inflation targets, bond yields, employment data, GDP growth, and business cycles. But these historical tools are now fractured beyond recognition.
Why?
Because the very foundation of the global economy, the “money” system itself, has been systematically distorted. And here in the U.S., it’s the hub.
The New “Normal” is Economic Sorcery.
Interest rates no longer reflect risk or time value, they’re artificial tools of central bank control…
Inflation metrics are manipulated, lagging, and no longer capture real world cost-of-living destruction. Debt-fueled “growth” masks the true collapse of productivity.
Corporate buybacks replace innovation and expansion. The market isn’t driven by price discovery, but now by algorithmic, engineered, fake, non-productive liquidity flow. We now live in a post-reality market, where the “price” of assets is detached from underlying value. Models fail, because truth has been digitally erased from the system.
Why the Models Are Breaking. (Several Factors In Play…)
The Cantillon Effect. The elite get newly created money first, at zero cost, while the rest of the population faces devalued purchasing power.
Unlimited QE + Suppressed Rates. These destroy the natural signals of the bond market and erode long-term stability.
Artificial Liquidity Pools. Central banks are now the primary driver of market momentum, not earnings, not growth, not demand.
Weaponized Data. From employment figures to CPI, all “economic data” is adjusted, massaged, faked, and manipulated for perception… not truth.
Political Corruption of Economics. Markets are no longer apolitical, they are strategic tools used by those in power to retain power.
History Can’t Repeat Or Even RHYME in a World That’s Been Digitally Disconnected From Itself.
The very cause-and-effect logic that once governed economic behavior is being overridden, intentionally. It’s not just that the models aren’t working… it’s that they’re not allowed to work.
This is monetary totalitarianism… where debt is infinite, accountability is extinct, and economics is rewritten to serve the few at the expense of the many.
What to Do Now.
The system is not just broken; it’s being hollowed out from the inside.
Every traditional roadmap now leads off a cliff. Which is why hard assets like silver, and gold, remain the last fortification of financial truth.
Independent thinking is your shield against deception. And faith in divine order is the ultimate anchor in chaos.
Last thought…
The system has detached from history, and reality… but truth cannot be hidden forever. The people feel it. The pulse of Babylon is unstable. And the awakening has begun.
You are not crazy for thinking “this makes no sense.”
