The Elliott Wave 3 of 3 Up that commenced with the bond vigilantes calling the Benchmark Interest Rate, $TNX, higher from 2.48%, on October 23, 2013, will be seen in the Risk Off ETN, OFF, trading higher, and will be unleashing destructionism replacing inflationism, as it has already PIVOTED the world out of the paradigm and age of liberalism and into that of authoritarianism. The Elliott Wave 3 of 3 Waves are the most sweeping of all waves, they create the bulk of wealth on the way up, and destroy most of the wealth on the way down. This wave will make the bankers holding Interest Rate Swaps, that came as part of liberalism’s POMO, awesomely wealthy.

An investment demand for gold will be commencing as fiat money, and now fiat wealth, will be turning lower in value, both collapsing into the Pit of Financial Abandon. Under authoritarianism, the only two forms of sovereign wealth and sustainable wealth will be the physical possession of gold bullion and diktat; the only form of bartering wealth will be silver bullion and sexual services.
