2012 forecast
Logic talks
Welcome to a little talk about what 2012 is going to become
The forecast for the 2012 year.
The hobbyist economist
With less then one month into the 2012 year, it is time to share what the numbers are telling us about this year.
About Logic your author
I am a numbers person, I buy and hold metals, and invest and trade in Internet domain names, vintage watches, refurbishing, servicing, and repairs and we are Viper Logic an Advanced Technology Engineering company, where we write low-level software code for computers. We have been in and around the investment world since 1983 and in business since 1993.
Let’s not hold back with our 2012 predictions.
U.S. Politics
We will get a new President in the United States come November.
The results of this action from people still thinking that the government is going to solve the American way returning to the so called good old days will be let down unless they take actions on their own.
Investments
Warren Buffet needs to stand down on the countries future, one way or another, he has lost my respect, it just needs to happen, it is very unhealthy for this great country, and oh those behind the scenes deals cause so much trouble for the rest of us, we are acting more like an under developed country then the world leading country.
The stock market is going down some anyways, it is not here for you and I directly anyways, it is for the mega traders like retirement and fund groups, i.e. large volume traders.
Precious Metals
Gold should see $3000.00 plus dollars and ounce.
Silver should see $60.00 dollars an ounce maybe higher but not lower.
If you are a metals investor, buy and hold the actual metals or you might not get your money out when you need it.
Real Estate
Housing is going no where but down, but behind this is commercial real estate that still needs to take a huge hit, 2012 is going to bring this to a reality, falling to levels not seen since the 1930’s.
Technology
Smart devices replace higher dollar ticket items with Americans.
Social and connections is not going to resolve the number one threat to the technology industry, the lack of technological creations is going to slow the true growth once the hype fizzles out, as there are too few new advancements in technology, thus we are now only seeing tweaks to existing creations, just look at the online gambling thoughts coming out now from most all of the social and gaming companies.
We are seeing desperate resorting by the larger players online, to retain the number of site visitors, when did site visitors become a value creation, and what about advertising revenue streams, can they grow and will they last?
Reminder
These Internet companies, most all anyways, do not produce any true or real products, just more services and discounts, discounts will do well through most of the 2012 year (bad economy, people still want things but for less) at least until the fourth quarter arrives, then things are going to get ugly for technology on a large scale, if it takes that long that is.
Smart phones for the not too smart users
Text messaging was created for developing countries and America is doing this because it is addicting (women more then men) and cheaper then talking on the phone currently.
Software engineers is a term too, loosely used as a job description these days, that will not have a good outcome in the end.
Sports and Entertainment
Logic could care less but I must share some thoughts.
Famous people will find stickiness too much to retain as there are more and more people in these businesses, and there is too much in the average persons daily lives to gain traction through their fan base, this will result in outside of their talent news already occurring to be expanded in 2012. Sports fans will see a rise in tragic event unfold when attending events, mostly because America is a very big melting pot, ore then ever, groups will seek these venues for attention to their causes, America produces more easily influenced people these days they will be a part of the violence at these venues.
Who cares who is marrying who, who is having a baby, or changed their hair styles?
Instead do this:
What is your close family doing, how are they, did one of them just have a baby, or take a trip, go on a date, or change their hair style, this what should be important to you, not people you do not know and more then likely never will.
Fear not famous people
Americans will continue to entertain themselves into the poor house.
Human Population
Logic over the past several years of article writing has stressed the population issue with now 8,000,000,000 people on earth, that is only part of the issue, there is not enough things to do on earth to support (financially) or enough food and clean safe water to support this.
We have always urged our readers to not have children, if you do have two or less two would create zero human growth, that is a start. The less educated or poorer one is the more children they have, the smarter and wealthier you are the least likely you are to have children or more then 2 anyways.
Global warming is nothing more then this.
The earths surface is 2 thirds water and the remaining 1 third is occupied by humans in little amounts to the total land area of the earth, it is not possible for us to cause the amount of global warming and green gases being claimed by scientists, remember these people remind Logic of famous people, they are all seeking attention and must continue maintaining their incomes from governments, to educational institutions and this is more their motivation then their true feelings.
Logic feels that global warming is more of the earth making natural changes, ice age then retractions, it is an ever moving and living object, volcano’s and earthquakes.
This global warming thing is more of a U.S. thing then anywhere else in the world, yet we share this planet as one, America, it is what a Canadian shared with us recently, “America is nothing but a giant national park”, do nothing in America (go on the social system) or get fined for trying to prevail.
Wars of the world
Or rather wars that the U.S. continues to entice.
We are behaving way to much like the Romans did before their fall, in fact the correlation is ironic, we have spent more then we have financially and we are growing weaker each day, yet we are likely to have three more run ins still in the 2012 year with Iran, Pakistan, and North Korea. Little known is these third world countries need wars to seek financial aid from other countries and even from the United States once and only if we win that war as we always have done, but this too can change.
Now for the good 2012 prediction news
You can have a great year, if you plan and sacrifice, just a little, placing money and effort wisely can have you seeing a great end to the 2012 year.
Americans sacrifice when they have no choice (lower returns, lower real estate values, loss of jobs), but are less willing to do this on their own. Change this way of being and you can have a greater 2012 year.
If you are like Logic, you love this country, you would do anything to maintain the life so many of us have enjoyed and even prevailed in.
2012 through 2014
Be prepared for three of the toughest years seen since the mid 1930’s, if you do then this is all of the good news you should grab onto.
Do not let the media sway your own abilities to seek information
Stop blaming the rich popular people for the wrongs with America and you will have a greater sense of what is really going wrong, you can do this by seeking out another reason for your personal failures, it is a mirror you should be looking for.
Have a prosperous 2012, we are already experiencing yet another great Viper Logic year.
Logic.
