What a load of horseshit. Based on 25 days of 2014, and citing 20 disconnected and largely irrelevant factoids (Ukraine unrest is based on a popular desire to break ties with Russia, not economic factors; Venezuela has seen hyperinflation for *years*; Intel layoffs are a result of shifting market demands; JCP And Sears have been largely irrelevant institutions for years due to eCommerce and competition from new brands), someone feels they can forecast global economic meltdown?
I hope everyone who believes this garbage puts their money where their mouth is-- start shorting stocks and betting against the market. I dare you.
