➡ On February 13th, the stock market had a good day with the Dow, S&P, and NASDAQ all seeing increases. This was largely due to President Trump signing a memorandum to look into tariffs on foreign nations, although no new tariffs were implemented. In other news, Nvidia’s stock rose after Hewlett Packard Enterprises announced its final solution using Nvidia’s Blackwell chip. Lastly, there’s ongoing uncertainty about potential new tariffs and their impact on the economy, with Trump’s commerce secretary nominee stating that the investigation will be complete soon, and it will be up to Trump to decide when to enact any new tariffs.
➡ The article discusses Trump’s controversial proposal for the U.S. to take over Gaza, which is seen as a violation of international law. It also mentions Israel’s refusal to allow the return of Palestinians who were forced out during the 1984 war. The article criticizes the one-sided media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and encourages readers to consider all perspectives. Lastly, it mentions the appointment of R.F.K. Jr. as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary, praising his stance on health.

Hello everybody, this is Gerald Cilenti, and it’s Thursday, February 13th. Good thing it’s not Friday the 13th, but hey, you never know. So, onto the markets. What happened today? Well, very happy day on the markets. Let’s see, stocks are up, the Dow up 342 points, S&P up over 1%, NASDAQ up 1.5%. You know why? Dow hit sessions high after President Donald Trump signed a presidential memorandum to examine reciprocal tariffs on foreign nations, but fell short of implementing any levies after teasing major trade policy changes this week. Alright, so he keeps backtracking, we don’t know where he’s going to go.

And Nvidia jumped up 3.3% after Hewlett Packard Enterprises said it shipped its final solution using Nvidia Blackwell chip. Yeah, big fucking deal. Again, we see it dot com bust, and we see a lot of these AI stocks way overvalued, and we’re going to get to that very soon. And remember, the trend is your friend, and we’re giving you what nobody else is. It does not exist anyplace. Don’t teach it at Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Oxford, Cambridge, nobody teaches trend forecasting, they don’t know how to do it. Again, trend tracking, far better than megatrends, Time Magazine. Trends 2000.

And then when you read the Trends Journal, you got the guest guy in technocracy in the United States that knows all about it, where it’s going, what’s going to happen. It’s in your Trends Journal every week, Joe Duran. And you go to Amazon, you get some of his books like this, Aedetic Devolution and others. We’re giving you everything we can for the grand total of $2.56 a week. Magazine averages about 200 pages, you read what you want, high tech science, technocracy, AI, cryptos, on and on and on, geopolitics, economics, health, fitness, nutrition, across the spectrum. So, going back to the stocks, and Trump orders up a plan for more tariffs.

Howard Lucknick, Trump’s commerce secretary nominee, said he anticipates the investigation will be complete. It’s then up to Trump to decide on April 2nd when to enact any new restricting tariffs. Again, the game keeps changing. Nobody’s going to put 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada. The day got elected. We’re going to wait two weeks. The two weeks came out, we put them on, but two days later he changed it. It’s a guessing game. Yep. So, but I think I agree with him. Reciprocal tariffs are fine with me. Trump says, you know, they charge us a tax or tariff and we charge them the exact same.

I totally agree. So, going on, the producer price index numbers came up, and let’s see, they adjusted up increased by a seasonally adjusted 0.4% on the month, and let’s see, over the past year the producer price index increased 3.5%. Oh, wait a minute, the inflation rate’s supposed to be 2%, and by the way, they made up that fucking 2% number. That little shithead, the guy that said there was no panic of 08, that says, Slenty, you’re full of shit with the dot-com bust, and calling you a panic of 08. Oh, you know, Ben Bernanke. Oh, what college is he teaching at now? That little fuckface said, you’re full of shit, there’s not going to be a downturn.

He’s a little bastard that invented the 2%. Oh, and then the ECB, 2%, will make any fucking thing up we want. And again, it’s the cover of your trends journal this week. The politicians and the bureau craps are nothing more than zookeepers, and they treat us like animals in a cage because they keep shoving down the same shit down our throats, and you better swallow it, or you won’t eat. Yep. Fucking Ben Bernanke, a little fucking lying prick. The facts in there wrote about it in the trends journal as it was happening. Denied, denied the panic of 08.

Denied. Oh, and invented quantitative easing. Oh, and $29 trillion to bail out the banks to bandits. Oh, that’s not my number to leave the Institute of Art College, but going on. So now we got the PPI index coming up. And again, you look at the markets, and you look what’s going on. Gold today was up nearly $24 an ounce. It closed at $2927 an ounce. It’s almost up $900 an ounce from when we called it a golden year for gold last year. This is going up because of all the political, geopolitical, and economic uncertainty like we’ve never seen in history of the world part one or part two.

This is amazing that gold prices are spiking like that. And, you know, Bitcoin still trading at $95,000, $97,000 range, which still remain very bullish on it, particularly since the Trump Club got a lot of crypto club in it. So this thing’s going to keep going up as we see it. And in Brent crude, $75 a barrel. Again, global economy slowing down. And this is besides Trump putting extreme sanctions on Russia and Iran, particularly Iran, on oil. So there’s less supply going out. So anyway, that’s what we got so far. Credit card debt, not hit a record at $1.21 trillion.

But don’t worry about it. The billionaires and the millionaires and the multi-millionaires were a lot richer. So shut the fuck up. Pay your debt with a fucking 20 percent average credit card rate. 20 percent. And they talked about the mafia. The mafia? This is the mafia. It’s disgusting. Oh, and Trump said he’s going to bring it down to 10 percent. Let’s see if he does it. Or it’s not more Trump bullshit. Yeah. And let’s see. The New York Fed researchers found a seven point one eight percent of balance of transitionings delinquent. Yep. Over seven percent delinquent.

People are going bust, but the richer are getting richer. West born to focus on open source A.I. and race against China. Former Google chief Eric Shit has warned the Western countries need to focus on building open source artificial intelligence models or risk losing out to China. That is a bunch of shit. Again, remember the H-1B thesis that Trump wants? Little Billy Clinton began bringing cheap, cheap high tech labor from China and India. Yeah. They know what to do over there and they’re excelling ahead. It’s a matter of the brain. And this is a whole tech age and it’s a different game.

All crap. Yep. But it’s very important because China chipmaker threatens Korean sector dominance. China’s top producer of memory chips is rapidly gaining market share at the expense of South Korean competitors joining open A.I. rival DeepSeek in strengthening Beijing’s drive to reduce dependence on foreign tech in advanced fields such as artificial intelligence, the financial times. China techs enter bull run after DeepSeek breakthrough. Again, the financial times not being reported in most of the U.S. media. The Hang Seng Index, which tracks the 30 largest groups listed in Hong Kong, is up 25% from its 2025 low on January 13th, right? A couple of weeks later, look where it is, has outpaced the NASDAQ 100s, 4.4% increased.

And a 0.5% decline for the significant seven tech stocks over the past month. This is serious. Love it, hate it, go for it, don’t go for it. China, India, particularly China, they’re going to be advancing in A.I. Going back to the tariffs, Michelin Chief considers hastening American investments to circumvent tariffs on Europe. He’s told the Financial Times the company could reorganize its priorities to bolster capacity in U.S. factories should President Trump impose import duties on its trading partners. When we look at our global investment plan, we may have to advance to date for projects in the U.S.

and slow down projects everywhere. Again, I call like I say it, I totally agree with Trump on these things. Totally, totally what I just told you. When it comes to Gaza, when he wants to do it Iran, totally opposed. But going back to what I agree with, Trump trade is to me, if he keeps doing what he’s saying he’s going to do, I think it’s going to be positive. And another Blackstone selling a $3.1 billion deal to Novartis. And one deal after another coming. Again, whole section in your Trends Journal, it’s getting bigger week after week.

And going on to what I totally disagree with Trump, we’re going to take it. Trump plans to annex Gaza. Yep. We’re going to we’re going to have Gaza. We don’t have to buy. There’s nothing to buy. We will have Gaza. We’re going to take it. Ask how he intends to displace the Palestinian people in Gaza from their land. Trump responded. It’s a small number of people relative to things that have taken place over the decades and centuries. Can you imagine him saying this shit? There’s a million people there. It’s a small thing. This is disgusting.

And they go on to right here. The Trump plan to displace the people of Gaza is a flagrant violation of the prohibition under the Fourth Geneva Convention of the forcible transfer of civilians during armed conflicts. And as a plan to steal their land violates the 1970 United Nations treaty ratified by the United States, which stipulates that quote, the territory of a state shall not be the object of acquisition by another state resulting from the threat or use of force. This is disgusting. Totally, totally, totally disgusting. And a very good article in the paper record. What international law says about Trump’s Gaza proposal.

And they go on to be noted talking about stealing land in a violation as we’ve been writing week after week, month after month, year after year. Israel has refused to allow the return of the approximately 700,000 Palestinians who fled or forced out. They were forced out during the 1984 war that followed the creation of the Jewish state. The creation of the Jewish state brought to you by the Rothschild gang. Oh, we wrote about it. Yeah, the Balfour Declaration 2000 excuse me, 1917 made up this shit. Yep. Totally, totally, totally in violation of international law. On Sunday, Mr.

Trump reiterated his proposal for the United States to take over Gaza teller reporters that quote, it was a big real estate site. And the United States was going to own it. This is this is this is disgusting. This is terrible. Where is the outrage? South Africa pledges to pursue is pursue Israel over Gaza. South Africans foreign minister vowed to push ahead with the genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice, despite an executive order signed by Donald Trump punishing the country for quote, it’s aggressive position towards the U.S. Our fucking Israel, my ally.

Oh, no, I didn’t get many money from what if you give me money, they’ll become an ally, like all yellow scumbags. And not talking about real Jewish men and women. This is a full page ad in today’s New York Times. Trump has called for the removal of all Palestinians of Gaza. Jewish people say no to ethnic cleansing. Yep. People like Naomi Wolf as well. All rabbis and others. Look, look, there it is. But they only sell one side of story. You go to the Cartoon News Network. This is the front page article. They didn’t treat them nice.

Moms of freed young Israeli hostages detail with their daughters adored as Hamas captives. How about saying the horror of the Israelis torturing Palestinian prisoners? There’s like twelve thousand of them. Raping, throwing them on dirty floors to sleep. You see the pictures of these people coming out. They don’t look compared to the people coming out of the prisons from Israel. They look good. I’m not saying they haven’t been tortured. I don’t know what’s going on there. But hey, how about two sides of the story? No, we only give you one side. And that’s why you subscribe to the Trans Journal.

You get all sides. They’re little fucking prostitutes, little pricks. And of course, I can’t say the other word. Not a word about it. Israel sees opening for strikes on Iran nuclear sites, U.S. intelligence fines. Yep. It’s calling to the big article in the Wall Street Journal. If they attack Iran, it’s World War Three nuclear war because Iran is going to defeat Israel and Israel used the Samson option. Ninety one million against seven million. You’re going to be good to figure this one out. And they’re very advanced. The Iranians militarily and scientifically. But you’re not allowed to say that because Munich University censors lecture by UN Special Rapporteur for human rights who has accused Israel of genocide.

And this is from the World Socialist website. Munich University canceled the Special Rapporteur for human rights and Palestinian territories. And it’s Albanese. You’re not allowed to get thrown out of this country for it. And what else do we got? R.F.K. Jr. was sworn in as the United States U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary. I am. I got spoke to Kennedy twice when he was running for office. Went down to Pennsylvania to Philadelphia when he announced he was running on an independent. And Dennis Kucinich is former campaign manager up here as a speaker at one of our Occupy Peace routes.

I totally backed off Kennedy because his pro-Zionist stance. I totally support Kennedy on his stance in health. One hundred percent. Totally with him. So to me, and what he’s doing in this position, it’s a great, great pick. One of the best in the capital for that position. So, again, call it like it is. Like it, don’t like it. That’s fine. But to be on one side and only agree because that’s what your priest or rabbi or whoever dictates that tells you what to do. You look at issues to what they are, and that’s what the Trends Journal does.

As we said, the Israel war going on. How many times have I read from Haaretz, the Israeli newspaper? Times of Israel. How many times have I read from IRNA, ISNA, Press TV, the Iranians? The Persians. How many times have you read from Arab News, Al Jazeera, the Arabs, and the West? We give you all the information. We don’t take one side, and then we call it like it is. But that’s gone. That used to be called journalism. It’s dead. So anyway, subscribe to the Trends Journal, trendsjournal.com, and you got to see the interview I did yesterday with Judge Napolitano.

Go to Judging Freedom, and there’s no cat like him, and he really nails it. So, again, we’re in for a while right into the future, and go keep shining. See you soon. [tr:trw].
