01-24-22 Nine-Month Economic Forecast // Understanding Shmita // Part 3
Today we are providing a nine-month economic forecast to advise on how to direct business, expenses, and investment for optimal return in the expected economic correction to come.
August 2020 was the last time Kayla and I provided an economic forecast on the IGNITE Birmingham podcast. At that time, we recommended investment into real estate, stock market, and Bitcoin not knowing we were entering into the sixth year of the seven-year Shmita which is the year for 4x harvest.
And this is what happened:
- from Aug '20 through Christmas Bitcoin climbed at its high by 400% moving from $12K to $65K
- the S&P 500 climbed by 42%
- well you know the story behind real estate it was unstoppable
- most every business faired well and very few organizations had significant economic troubles
Until now, Kayla and I have not felt led to provide an economic forecast on IGNITE since August 2020. Today we will discuss why the next 9 months January through October is the time to SAVE as much money as possible and pay off debts. Now is the time to lay investments and cash into safe harbor in anticipation of tribulation and to buy assets that will go on massive discount over the next several months.
Macro-Economic Indicators to watch for:
Stage I: significant drops in valuations
Stage II: announcements of layoffs, bankruptcy, business closures, and foreclosures
Stage III: defaults on debts owed by governments around the world
This is the third recording in a series of three calls completely dedicated to Shmita:
01-10-22 Will the Market Crash? // Understanding Shmita // Part 1
01-17-22 Eternal Perspective // Understanding Shmita // Part 2
