“In modern times, the Ides of March ( March 15) is best known as the date on which Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC. Caesar was stabbed to death at a meeting of the senate. As many as 60 conspirators, led by Brutus and Cassius, were involved. According to Plutarch,[ a seer had warned that harm would come to Caesar no later than the Ides of March. On his way to the Theatre of Pompey, where he would be assassinated, Caesar passed the seer and joked, “The Ides of March are come”, implying that the prophecy had not been fulfilled, to which the seer replied “Aye, Caesar; but not gone.” This meeting is famously dramatised in William Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar, when Caesar is warned by the soothsayer to “beware the Ides of March.” The Roman biographer Suetonius identifies the “seer” as a Haruspex (in ancient Rome a religious official who interpreted omens by inspecting the entrails of sacrificial animals.) named Spurinna”
Fullys Note: I guess you could say this guy Spurinna made a Gutsy Call !

One more big thing close in time is the British PM saying that she will trigger Brexit by the “end of the month”, i.e. end of March.
Stockman wrote an article that says that after March 15, the govment will come to a screeching halt and then SHTF. He a doomsayer, no doubt but there’s a lot on the plate as you’ve indicated.
Great post Fully, thank you! So far today inflation up, PM’s not reacting WTF! Even if Yellen does hike, is it not already baked in? – the surprise will be if they don’t and let inflation further take root. I saw a recent headline that stagflation may be coming, @#@$ it’s already here people for the past 15 months – GDP vs inflation – do they have to be drawn a picture? – I guess until cyclical unemployment picks up later this year, the sheeple won’t be getting the memo. To boot, the US Gov’t is raising their credit card limit AND raising the interest rate they are paying, again WTF !! I’m not just bullish PM, I’m now uber bullish – the wedge chart you posted will break UP. “REVENGE IS A DISH BEST SERVED COLD” – Khan.
