The writing is on the wall…

It looks like a digital, programmable dollar is coming to Australia.

To me, the signs are absolutely undeniable. After all, it’s already here in pilot form:

  • In the middle of the pandemic, the RBA began testing a cross-border digital currency system in something called ‘Project Dunbar’.
  • Then, when parts of Australia were still under lockdown, it launched ‘Project Atom’ — a digital dollar for use by banks and financial institutions only.
  • And the RBA just announced plans to pilot a new digital currency for EVERYONE over the next 12 months.

This is all happening in full view and with the backing of the Treasury, the Reserve Bank, and countless other major banks.

Can you see what’s happening?

The authorities have a million problems to deal with today.

Global inflation is raging at 40-year highs.

Stock and bond markets have tanked.

There’s war in Europe…tensions with China over Taiwan…huge shortages of food and energy…

And yet, amid all this, the RBA and 81 other central banks are preparing for a radical, permanent change to how money works.

I think that demands not just your attention — but action, too.

Because once a digital dollar launches, it could fundamentally reshape your relationship with money and the State.

And not in a good way.

It could give the State total power to control how you spend your money...what you’re allowed to buy, and what you’re not allowed to do.

Imagine that.

Some bureaucrat having the final say over your spending, deciding if you’ve used too much diesel, eaten too much meat, or consumed too much carbon.

That’s what’s on the table here. And I’m not alone in thinking this.

As tech analyst Bernard Fickser speculated:

Once one has started down this slippery slope, what is to prevent the trackers of my (and your) financial transactions from trying to shape my behavior?

Are you late with an alimony payment? Sorry, but you can’t take that business flight — we’re going to block payment until you’re caught up with your debt…

This is the world China is moving rapidly towards. It’s already launched a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) in several major cities.

And instead of calling that move out as an abhorrent attack on people’s freedom…

Our own authorities are readying themselves
to launch THE SAME THING HERE

The aim is simple: to help you put the theory behind the 18-year cycle into practice in your own stock and property portfolios.


No. I’m real. My publisher is real. We’re part of a publishing group that’s been around since 1979.

Our business is regulated in Australia by ASIC.

Catherine Cashmore is president of Prosper Australia, which is the country’s oldest economics organisation.

Callum Newman is a fully accredited stock analyst, with more than a decade’s worth of experience. He’s legally able to give general investment advice in Australia.

I get that people are sceptical. If you are, please read our newsletter over the next month of your subscription.

You’ll quickly see that this is the real deal.


No one can guarantee you success in the markets. If someone offers you this, run a mile.

There are always risks involved when you buy property or shares. You should always do your due diligence on any property investment. And where stocks are concerned, you should never invest more than you can safely afford to lose.

But we can guarantee one thing you’ll get from : meticulous research.

We are students of the 18-year cycle and the land value data that feeds it.

We’ll do the hard work. And we’ll show you what we think you should do to stay one step ahead of what’s happening. That doesn’t guarantee success. But it means we’ll always be there, thinking, questioning, and researching on your behalf.

We won’t hold anything back from you.


Catherine’s speciality is real estate.

So she’ll let you know what the cycle says about when it is a good time to buy (and sell)...and what types of properties will tend to make the best returns at different stages of the cycle.

Callum will recommend shares and other stock market investments.

They will be based on his reading of the 18-year cycle AND the stock market.

He’ll also tell you what sectors and types of companies tend to do well at different times in the 18-year cycle, profiling some of his most promising buys.


There are three...

The first risk is that our research is wrong. That we’ve misinterpreted the data...we’re seeing patterns that aren’t really there...and cooking up projections in our minds.

We don’t think that’s the case. In fact, we think everything happening in Australia today is explained perfectly by the Grand Cycle. But we’re not soothsayers. We can’t see the future. And we won’t get every call right.

The second risk is that we’re right — but YOU make a mistake. You go off and rush into a quick decision without a full understanding of our analysis...and you either lose money buying the wrong investment…or you get your timing wrong.

This is a risk only you can mitigate. We’ll give you our interpretation of the 18-year cycle and how it applies to property and stocks. We’ll give you the historical precedent. We’ll show you charts that turn the theory into a reality for you. And we’ll give you our recommendations. But what you do with them is up to you.

The third risk is that something comes out of left field to blow the cycle out of whack. Remember that cycles are living things. The ‘metanarrative’ of history repeats, but the fine detail is never the same.

The 18-year cycle can be influenced by any number of factors. For example, the Second World War disrupted (but didn’t dramatically alter) the economic cycle until about 1955. Then there are major ‘black swan’ events like 9/11, which come out of nowhere and send markets into chaos.

There’s nothing anyone can do about these kinds of events. All we can do is show you how to make sense of them in the context of the cycle.


We have your best interests at heart because our interests are completely aligned.

We only have a business if people subscribe to our newsletter.

People will only subscribe — and stay subscribed — if they like the research and our recommendations prove successful for them.

If you are unsuccessful, you will unsubscribe.

If enough people unsubscribe, our newsletter closes...simple as that.

Therefore, it’s in our interests to provide excellent research that makes you money!


Don’t panic!

When you join , you’ll receive phone access to our customer service team, plus an email address where you can ask any questions related to your subscription (although we can’t give personal investment advice).

To be clear: we want this to work for you. We want you to use the cycle to be a successful stock and property investor.

We will do everything in our power to help you achieve this aim.
