| The Retail Apocalypse Picks Up Speed As Sears, JCPenney, Brookstone And Mattress Firm Spiral Toward Bankruptcy |
| This report was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse
Over 20 major retailers have filed for bankruptcy since the beginning of last year, and in 2018 we may break the all-time record for annual store closings that was established just last year. We are in the midst of the worst retail apocalypse in American history, and it appears to be picking up speed as retail giants such as Sears, JCPenney, Brookstone and Mattress Firm spiral toward bankruptcy. We live at a time whThursday, October 4, 2018 |

| Are We in Late Cycle Implications for Gold |
| In the previous edition of the Market Overview, we explored the fascinating history of bull and bear cycles in both the U.S. dollar and gold. Since then, the idea of cyclicity doesn’t lead me to drop off, disrupting my sleep cycles. Let’s then dig into the topic. We start with the business cycles, as in the recent Gold News Monitor we wrote that “we are in the late stages of the economic cycle – as the cycle matures, volatility increases and investors start to buy more gold as a hedge.” Why do wSaturday, March 10, 2018 |

You should. I’m going to tell you mine today.

The second city. The windy city. The city of big shoulders.
All of that sounds nice, but if you’ve live in Chicago, the phrase that is always top of mind is not so romantic.
You may have heard it before. It’s the phrase that was famously mouthed by Sean Connery in the movie “The Untouchables” when he said “THATS the Chicago Way.”

| Doomsday Clock Ticks Closer To The Time Of The Apocalypse |
| Citing advancements in North Korea’s nuclear program, scientists have moved the doomsday clock closer to midnight, the symbolic time of the apocalypse. This is the closest the clock has ticked toward a doomsday scenario.
The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, which has been tracking the threat posed by nuclear weapons and other technologies since the 1940s, moved the second hand forward on their Doomsday Clock, which brings the world closer to its symbolic apocalyptic midnight by 30 seconds.

| The U.S. government partially closed at midnight on Friday. But the UK deals with a much more serious crisis. Potentially also for gold.
Unlike the U.S. Government, the Gold Market Never Closes
So it happened again. The most powerful country in the world didn’t manage to renew another short-term government funding extension. It’s quite embarrassing, but we all should already get used to it.

| Retail Apocalypse and Gold |
| Retail stores have been disappearing from the U.S. economy in 2017. What does it mean for the gold market?
Writing about the retail apocalypse during Christmas time may be a bit odd, but the numbers do not lie. From January to September 2017, 6,752 locations, excluding grocery stores and restaurants, were scheduled to close. It’s more than twice compared to the 2016 total and very close to the all-time high of 6,900 in a crisis 2008.

| We Have Tripled The Number Of Store Closings From Last Year, And 20 Major Retailers Have Closed At Least 50 Stores In 2017 |
| This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse
Did you know that the number of retail store closings in 2017 has already tripled the number from all of 2016? Last year, a total of 2,056 store locations were closed down, but this year more than 6,700 stores have been shut down so far. That absolutely shatters the all-time record for store closings in a single year, and yet nobody seems that concerned about it.

The real apocalypse will begin on October 31 when the “Earth will crack” according to conspiracy theorists, says The Express UK.
