Rare "crisis signal" triggers for third time in U.S. market (Ad)

A rare pattern has just repeated for the third time in U.S. history. The last two times this happened, the market crashed 78% (the dot-com bust) and 89% (the Great Depression). Today, according to one of America's leading experts (who has predicted nearly every financial crisis of the last 25 years), what's coming next could soon crash the market by 50% or more, and keep it down for 10, 20, or even 30 years.
