'Cycles Line Up Like They Did Before 1929': Charles Nenner Warns Of "Very Big Downturn" In Stocks'

Via Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com,

Renowned geopolitical and financial cycle expert Charles Nenner is usually way ahead of market moves.  When nobody wanted silver ($29), he was buying it.  When everyone wanted silver a few months ago ($120), he was selling it. 

So, what is Nenner seeing in the markets right now?  Let’s start with the big surprise prediction coming in oil prices.  Lots of people say oil is going higher, a lot higher.  There are plenty of predictions of oil breaking over $200 a barrel.  Heck, even President Trump thinks oil will hit $200, but Nenner says he’d be wrong.  Nenner explains:

“The crazy thing is, based on all my analysis, is crude oil looks weak for the next year.  I am not sure what it means. . .. I see oil going down longer term. 

Maybe other countries are going to find oil because they cannot rely on oil (from the straight of Hormuz) anymore.  By the way, Saudi Arabia has plans to make a pipeline through Israel to bring it to the sea.  So, they won’t need the Strait of Hormuz anymore. 

Intelligence will find a solution.  I think they are going to pump more oil.  If people think they will flood the world with oil from other countries, then the price will come down. . .. there may be an outside chance of oil hitting $101 (per barrel).”

On gold, Nenner predicts, “Some cycles are very interesting.  The gold cycle came down at $5,300 (per ounce).  We have a 30-day free subscription, and you can see those cycles.  They are close to bottoming now."

" Soon, there should be a new up move for gold.  We had a (downside) price target of around $3,800 per ounce.  We are very close.  So, gold starts looking good into 2027.” 

Nenner says the next gold bull market starts next month in August.

On silver, Nenner says:

 “Silver was a catastrophe because we had the cycle top at $121 (per ounce), and we couldn’t get people out of it. . ..

Silver is also going to be in a new bull market.   It could go back to the old highs of $120.”

On the stock market, Nenner says:

“The cycles in 1926 and 1927 line up like they did before the crash of 1929. 

This is almost August, and big investors have time to be very defensive. 

I want to repeat my forecast of a very big downturn in the stock market.”

Nenner likes cash, and he says watch out for big losses coming from some big banks. 

Nenner says:

“Real estate is a bad investment. 

I know big pension funds, and they have real estate in New York, and they are selling with a loss.  Other banks have losses, and nobody speaks about it—yet...

So, there is a lot going on that the average person doesn’t know. 

I know it because I work with these people, and things don’t look very safe...

I think we could have a banking crisis.”

There is much more in the 40-minute interview.

Murders In The US Set To Hit 126-Year-Low Following Illegal Immigrant Deportations: DHS

Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times,

Crime rates have fallen to “historic lows” across the United States, with homicides this year on track to register the lowest level in at least 126 years, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

In the first half of 2026, homicides were down 18 percent compared to the first half of last year, DHS said in a July 31 statement. Carjacking crimes tumbled 47 percent during this period, motor vehicle thefts fell 20 percent, robberies dropped 17 percent, and residential burglaries declined 13 percent.

The numbers come from a July 2026 report from the nonpartisan think tank Council on Criminal Justice (CCJ) that assessed crime stats across various U.S. cities.

Compared to the first half of 2022, the second year of the Biden administration, homicides in the first half of 2026, the second year of the current Trump administration, were down by 51 percent, according to the CCJ report.

For violent crimes, 2 percent fewer aggravated assaults and 6 percent fewer gun assaults were reported in the first half of 2026 compared to the same period last year. However, domestic violence incidents were up 8 percent, and sexual assaults by 3 percent for this period.

When compared to the first half of 2019, the year prior to the COVID-19 pandemic onset, homicides, aggravated assault, gun assault, sexual assault, domestic violence, robbery, and carjacking crimes were all lower in the first six months of 2026, the report said.

In its statement, DHS gave examples of some of the illegal immigrants with criminal histories who have been deported from the United States: A Salvadoran national with convictions for homicide and assault, a Costa Rican with convictions for property crimes and burglary, a Honduran Tren de Aragua gang member convicted for robbery, and a Vietnamese national convicted for armed carjacking.

“President [Donald] Trump promised to make America safe again, and he has done just that,” Lauren Bis, assistant secretary at the DHS’s Office of Public Affairs, said in the statement.

“Crime has fallen to record lows under the Trump Administration.”

“It’s no surprise that this drop in crime coincides with deportations of dangerous criminal illegal aliens. It is common sense. When you remove criminals from the country, crime rates fall,” Bis said.

In the first year of the current Trump administration, almost three million illegal immigrants had left the United States, then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a Jan. 20 DHS statement.

Declining Homicides

The CCJ report said that there is no single explanation for the historic low in homicide crimes in the first half of the year. It cited potential impacts from changes in criminal justice operations and strategies, shifts in society and culture, and technological advances.

In a July 23 statement, CCJ said it planned on convening a two-day summit in September with researchers from fields such as criminology, psychology, economics, and sociology to examine the factors likely driving the decline in homicides.

“Murder and other crime rates are falling across the map, in cities with different political leadership, housing and economic conditions, policing and prosecution strategies, violence reduction models, and levels of federal enforcement activity,” CCJ president Adam Gelb said in the statement.

“Local policies and programs surely matter, but the striking consistency of the decline suggests that macro-level forces are exerting enormous influence as well,” Gelb said.

The White House attributed the crime decline in the first half of the year to the Trump administration’s policies in a July 29 statement.

America’s neighborhoods are now safer, registering fewer victims and a decisive end to the crime surge seen in the last decade, the White House said, highlighting that this was “not accidental.”

“It is the direct result of the Trump Administration’s relentless efforts to enforce the rule of law, back the police, and surge resources into communities,” according to the White House.

On Jan. 20, 2025, the first day in his second term, President Donald Trump signed an executive order restoring the death penalty, highlighting that capital punishment was an “essential tool” to deter and punish those who would commit heinous crimes.

The same day, Trump signed another executive order targeting illegal immigrants. In the order, Trump clarified that it is the policy of the United States to faithfully execute immigration laws against all removable illegal immigrants, especially those who “threaten the safety or security of the American people.”

And in April last year, Trump signed an executive order that focused on providing new best practices to local and state law enforcement to “aggressively police communities against all crimes.”
