I know there’s been a lot of pressure on President Trump, fighting with our politicians who pretend to care, the NATO alliance that protects a non-NATO country, Ukraine, while no protecting a NATO country, USA. Plus other BS he’s having to deal with I can only except our Markets to start going back up very soon thanks to the Capital Flows from the Smart Money that’s realizes there is no other place to park your capital.
I believe we are getting close to that moment in time, unless another monkey wrench gets put into play.
GO Trump! Do your thing Mr. President.
“the Capital Flows from the Smart Money that’s realizes there is no other place to park your capital.”
Here is an extremely interesting take on that. Basically the old adage, “all wars are banker wars” (aka -look who is profiting)
Strait Theatre
And The Coordinated Energy Realignment
Morgan
Mar 24, 2026
“This was not a war. It was a restructuring exercise carried out under the cover of one. The U.S. has done this before — manufacture or accelerate a crisis, let the disruption clear the board, then move in as the stable expensive alternative. Gulf of Tonkin. Iraqi WMDs , Ukraine. The pattern isn’t new. What’s new is the scale of the commercial infrastructure that was already waiting to absorb the outcome.
Energy infrastructure was repositioned, trade corridors were reset, proxy liabilities were burned off, market share was redistributed, and the region’s financial architecture was quietly re-engineered while the public drowned in spectacle. The violence supplied the legal, political, and insurance rationale for outcomes already mapped in filings, planning documents, and funding commitments years before the first fake missile was launched.
They called it a war. It was a business deal and they were all in on it. ”

Interesting? Yes
Well crafted presentation? Stunningly so
Believable? Questionable
Cuba next.
The Market is the game, you just have to understand how it’s played. I went long overnight during the European market on the ES futures contract at 6356.50, 4.5 pts off the lows. I’m currently up 130pts. as I type this. What I mean by Capital Flows and Smart Money is how Capital moves around the globe, from currencies to metals, from metals to commodities, from commodities to stocks, from stocks to bonds, etc, just not in that order of course. Capital Flows from state to state and international to international countries.
If you move to another state, your Capital Flows with you.
Hope that clears up some confusion.
“Increased vessel traffic is moving through the Strait of Hormuz today.”….
https://x.com/Breaking911/status/2038987157683966065
And
It appears Strait of Hormuz traffic is moving through the toll booth, not through the usual route. Ships are turning off their ID though.
See marine traffic.com
Poland just refused our request sent Patriot missile batteries to Middle East…there is many reasons why we should leave NATO ASAP… from web…www.pronews.gr…. engl. translation available
That would be great but we will need to repatriate many of the foreigners living on our soil to free up housing and jobs. I am still astounded by the statistic that we have 40,000 foreign professors in our universities.
At the very least our Navy should stop Med cruises for the remaining of 2026. Plenty of other places our ships can go to.
“Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil”
President Trump to Europe
Was a fabulous update! Thanks Sundance! You are always on it! 💁🏻♀️
I enjoyed Chairman Caine’s comments about the passing of fWWII fighter ace Air Force Col. Clarence Anderson at age 102, laid to rest at Arlington next to his wife of 70 years, and honored with a fly-by of P-51’s and F-35’s. The Greatest Generation indeed.
Logically, when Iran puts in circulation a historical first denominated currency (Rial) of $10 million, that only means they are in serious financial danger of collapsing, they can play tough all the want, the media can spin negative news all they want but at the end of the day, Iran will have no other choice but to negotiate the best possible deal with the USA. Trump and his team know this so don’t be surprised that the Strait of Hormuz is a mutual agreement between the USA, Iran and other ME countries.
Markets up, oil and Bond yields down, ALL goods signs. Fingers crossed!
Very much appreciate your synopsis in real time.
Planes can be replaced, experienced flight crews are irreplaceable.
Thank you Sundance!
I don’t know how people can go thru a day without getting the truth regarding all of the issues we are facing in our nation.
You are such a blessing to us!
President Trump is a little like Caesarius of Heisterbach with respect to enemies who refuse to make a deal. Caesarius wrote “Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius” which is the origin for the modern rendention, “Kill them all and let God sort them out.”
I think he said in Art of the Deal if you hit a roadblock on negotiating with someone then get rid of who you are talking to.
In my mind the excellence and thorough professionalism of this operation is helping to wash off the stink and shame of Biden’s withdraw from Afghanistan.
