Our Financial Markets and Their Many Irrationalities

I launched myAmerican Pravda seriesa decade ago next month. My conscious strategy was quite unusual, being almost exactly the opposite of that followed by nearly everyone else covering those same controversial topics.

As some of them explicitly told me, they had always deliberately avoided exploring too many different and unrelated historical controversies. Instead, they believed that they were on safer ground by confining their work to a relatively narrow slice of these.

So some of them spent years challenging the official narrative on World War II or the JFK Assassination or the 9/11 Attacks or took other positions denigrated as “conspiracy theories” by our political and media establishments. But they usually focused on just one or two of those major issues, and ignored the others.

I decided to take the opposite approach and cover as many of those as possible. After years of effort, my American Pravda series has now done this, constituting a broader collection of such material than anything else I’ve encountered on the Internet.

In an October 2016 article, I’d sketched out the reasoning behind my contrary approach:

Individuals who challenge the prevailing media narrative with unorthodox ideas are often reluctant to raise too many such controversial claims simultaneously lest they be ridiculed as “crazy,” with all their views summarily dismissed.

In most cases, this may be the correct strategy to pursue, but if handled properly, an exact opposite approach might sometimes be quite effective…Or as suggested in a quote widely misattributed to Stalin, “Quantity has a quality all its own.”
