Financials Matter

"It's Not Just About Finance"

German Troops in Lithuania

In Case You Missed it, Germany now has 4,800 troops in Lithuania.

Wait, What?

For the first time since WWII, Germany has decided to deploy troops in Lithuania stating how eager they are to wage war on Russia.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz added, “The security of our Baltic allies is also our security.”

 

Question:  who determined the Baltic allies were at risk?

 

And how does Germany (who is broke like every other nation in Europe) believe it has unlimited funds to spend on the war?

Germany has already allocated a billion to the war in Ukraine.

Earlier this month, Lithuania announced it is increasing its military spending to 6% of GDP, or approximately $1.2 billion.

 

In addition to sending troops to Lithuania, foreign Minister Johann Wadephul announced that Germany will spend 5% of its GDP on NATO, claiming the nation was offering “the five percent that President Trump demanded.”

 

Their previous debt cap was 0.35% of GDP.

 

Let that sink in.

 

Ironically (or NOT) two-thirds of the Bundestag Parliament voted to remove military spending from the Constitutional debt brake.

As expected, the AfD opposed this plan, as did their opposite, Linke.

Because prior to this event the nation had implemented strict spending guidelines in its Constitution.

 

Do the math… now, any amount over 1% of GDP will not face a borrowing cap.

As a result, Germany can now spend any amount on defense with no concern for the future.

 

Translation:  Like WWI and WWII, Germany will lead Europe (and the USA) into WW3.

 

Troops in Lithuania

 

As we have said – many times in the past – History repeats because the passions of man never change.

But this time will not be a third time is a charm event.

 

Unfortunately, the Neocons believe they can just waltz into Russia and take over their $75 Trillion in natural resource assets…and Putin won’t put up a fight?

The other major problem we see is how Trump has now either become a warmonger or else he’s been cleverly manipulated by the Neocons into supporting Ukraine.

Despite all the other accomplishments Trump has made so far, we believe he’s being duped and manipulated over Ukraine.

 

Long term this does not bode well for our economy.

But in the meantime, the markets are factoring in the increase of war.

Discover what sectors will profit the most from war in our upcoming June edition of “Simplifying Wall Street…In Plain English” (HERE).

 

Share this with a friend…especially if they are against the idea of joining the Neocons in their lust for WW3.  They’ll thank YOU Later.

And tell them:

 

We’re Not Just About Finance

But we use finance to give you hope.

P.S. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
