I discovered something today working beside a master trader that makes me worry about the world's financial system and want to invest in harder assets for my future.

Here's why...

Nowadays, 70% of all trades are executed by machines and those machines are programmed to be positive, to be bullish. That means every time a machine execute the trade instead of a human a lot of different factors come into play that most investors are not used to. Especially emotion and basic human feelings that machines do not have that affect every day market logic.

The system is programmed like this because there is human meddling in the system, creating fake value that is going to cost everyone eventually.

The system is f@%ked

Even though the market is built on phony money that will soon have to lose steam, humans keep pumping money into the financial ecosystem in order to keep prices bullish because that's what the people want and that's with the computers want. Most people know that market corrections are good, they're healthy. How come no corrections and so much upward power? Is it artificial?

If you look at the S&P average it has been and it is at the highest that it is ever been. It's even reached a new high this month! The last times we hit a high like this was right before the internet bubble around 2000 and the housing bubble around 2008 and it wasn't even this good! I'm not saying I know exacty when it will crash but so many signs tell me it's going down very soon.

And what's even scarier is that not current mechanisms are not strong enough to support probably the biggest crash our generation and maybe the one before ever experienced. I don't know what will happen, but the powers in play are keeping the demons at bay... for now.

But We are NOT prepared!

I hate to be the skeptic while so many people sit back and enjoy the ride... and that's not just me blowing air at you! Look at the CBOE's Volatility Index (or investor fear indicator)...

The internet opened new opportunities in the late 90s and most people thought life was becoming more and more prosperous and we weren't going to stop until we get to the moon! A adjustable rate mortgages and CDOs made so many people rich in the early 2000s before it all began to crumble in 2006. Nowadays, we are riding a very bullish market and we're loving it! Unlike the previous crashes, eventually everything will catch up and there will be a devastating ripple effect!

Even as you read this article governments and organisms are preparing to abandon the (worthless) dollar to protect their own interests.

What do you think is a secure investment for the future?
