These 4 things happen
just before major
stock market crashes
(and they're happening RIGHT NOW!) by Mike Larson
Stop me if you've heard this one before ...
Bank stocks are  leading the entire market lower. 
The  economy is winding down; politicians and the Fed are scrambling to find a  solution. 
The  Volatility Index — the VIX — is at levels not seen in more than two years.
Gold is setting one  new record after another.
Sound  familiar? It should: 
These are precisely the things that happened
just before America's LAST great stock
market crash in 2008!
just before America's LAST great stock
market crash in 2008!
And boy, oh boy, was it ever ugly! 
The S&P 500 average plunged nearly 60%. Many household  name stocks 
lost 80% ... 90% ... up to 100% of their value. Venerable old  companies
 like Lehman simply ceased to exist. Millions of investors were wiped  
out.
But this time,  things are far worse:
In 2008, investors were worried that consumers had taken on too much debt they couldn't pay.
This time around, investors are panicking because our single largest institution — THE U.S. GOVERNMENT — has taken on too much debt it can't pay.
Back  then, investors could only hope that Washington would find a way to end the  nightmare with bailouts and stimulus.
This time, investors know that government “rescues” only delay the inevitable collapse.
Plus, they realize that our new, fiscally conservative representatives in Congress are sworn to defeat stimulus and bailout bills.
And they have come to the shocking realization that no institution on Earth has enough money to save the U.S. government now.
This is why gold prices just set 
another, new all-time high overnight,
hitting $1,808 per ounce.
another, new all-time high overnight,
hitting $1,808 per ounce.
And this is also why  the Dow fell 519 points yesterday — a whopping 
4.9% — while the Nasdaq fell  4.3% and the S&P 500 fell 4.4%. 
Just as I've been  warning you, U.S. bank stocks were hit particularly 
hard, giving up a whopping 7%  of their value in a single day. 
Many big banks fared  even worse: Morgan Stanley fell 9.7%. Goldman 
Sachs fell 10%. Citigroup fell  10.5%. Bank of America  crashed almost 
11% — all in just a few hours of trading.
And yet, it's  clear that the bloodletting has only begun: 
The European Union, the world's largest  economy, is coming 
unglued at the seams. The U.S. economy is slowing  dramatically. 
Unemployment is rising. Consumers are snapping their wallets  shut. Loan
 defaults are rising again. 
And to add insult  to injury, the U.S. Federal Reserve just promised to 
keep interest rates near  zero for two, long years — a decision that 
will drive inflation higher AND severely  limit the interest revenues 
that are the banks' lifeblood.
This is what 
we've been trying to prepare you for ...

out-of-control money printing, and  almost unimaginable political 
cowardice are about to exact a heavy toll from  each of us.

everything you've ever worked for must now  be confiscated from you.
Most importantly, we  offer you crucial solutions:
