WASHINGTON, Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Renowned financial analyst and former CIA advisor Jim Rickards has issued a stark warning about the impending 2024 presidential election, predicting a storm of economic collapse, political instability, and civil unrest that could devastate millions of Americans.

Rickards, famous for correctly forecasting the 2008 financial meltdown, Trump’s 2016 victory, and the COVID-19 crisis, now anticipates a “2024 Election Meltdown”. According to him, the aftermath could wreak havoc across financial markets and society.

“Biden’s recent withdrawal from the race, combined with Kamala Harris’ ascent, has created a perfect storm for chaos,” warns Rickards. “What’s coming next will make the 2020 election turmoil look mild.”

Rickards’ new projections include:

  • 50% collapse in stock markets
  • The final breakdown of the U.S. dollar
  • Violent demonstrations and riots
  • Potential declaration of martial law

“With rising political tension and the establishment’s efforts to block Trump from reclaiming power, the fallout could trigger economic panic and a nationwide constitutional crisis,” says Rickards.

Rickards outlines five essential strategies every American should implement immediately to prepare for the coming election upheaval:

  1. Protect yourself against dollar devaluation by investing in safe-haven assets.
  2. Reallocate your portfolio to benefit from the market downturn with crash-proof investments.
  3. Dump high-risk stocks that could face bankruptcy.
  4. Fortify your home with security measures against rising civil unrest.
  5. Stay informed with ongoing analysis from trusted sources like Rickards’ Strategic Intelligence.

Rickards is offering access to his exclusive reports designed to help Americans safeguard their savings and secure their future during this turbulent period. Key reports include:

  • How to Navigate the Dollar’s Collapse
  • The Top Investment to Profit During a Market Crash
  • Three Popular Stocks to Sell Before It’s Too Late
  • How to Build a Fortress at Home for Maximum Protection

“The clock is ticking,” says Rickards. “Those who wait until after the election to act could lose everything. Preparation today will make all the difference.”
