Evolution 4.0 | PROOF OF CONCEPT
During the proof of concept / test of concept phase of the Evolution 4.0 system, a core component known as “Looking Glass” was used to establish a track record of systemic accuracy. During our year and a half long TOC/POC phase, many “alternative news” outlets were used to establish “proof of time” and a verifiable forecasting accuracy record. Our lead system architect N. Anthony Ruiz (then using the non de facto and rather bombastic “Michael Rosecliff” on air persona), provided tremendous insight into a myriad of geopolitical, economic, and socioeconomic matters. From September of 2014 to August of 2015, N. Anthony was a regular guest on some of the most respected names in non corporate / internet radio. As such the entire staff of Evolution Consulting would like to say a very sincere thank you to the program hosts that had him on. A very special thanks to V the Guerrilla Economist (Roguemoney.net) and John B. Wells (Caravan to Midnight).
Of course, when it comes to forecasting events, time is a major component. Many of the predictions N. Anthony made during the TOC phase however, have shown signs of occurring or are already occurring now. (Many of the predictions made would be considered “over the horizon” +2-3 years). Because of the dynamic nature of event forecasting, we will be updating this section regularly as events unfold. Please find below paraphrased transcriptions from the TOC/POC phase of the Evolution 4.0 software. Those interested in more information from our POC/TOC phase can feel free to make use of the contact us segment of this website.
John B. Wells Caravan to Midnight Program (Episode 138) September 20th 2014
“Perhaps one of the biggest asset bubbles that hardly anyone in the main stream financial media is speaking about are SLABS (Student Loan Asset Backed Securities). Not only are they as potentially dangerous as the Fanny and Freddy mortgages circa 2008, they have reached / eclipsed the level as consumer credit card debt in total dollars and will continue to increase”. “SLABS and any variation thereof is not something anyone investing in any sort of structured products wants in their portfolio”. “Just look at economic macro conditions such as wage growth and unemployment to see why”.
As of December 2015:
SLABS and overall student debt (much of which is collateralized has eclipsed the 1.25Tn dollar mark. In addition to increasing from just over a trillion to past the 1.2 trillion USD mark since the 2014 broadcast, the increase in 90 day student loan default rate continues to increase almost as fast (nearly proportionate) to the overall student debt in USD. This means that SLABS (as accurately forecasted by variant of Evolution 4.0 that was used for our ToC phase) accurately forecasted the increasingly likelihood of a SLABS asset class default. Information gathered by the production / release version of Evolution 4.0 continues to monitor student debt metrics, analyzing the increasing likelihood that a SLABS mass-default will be partly responsible for (or be a major secondary component of) a major economic implosion both domestic / potentially internationally.
September 14th 2014: Rogue Money w/ V the Guerrilla Economist
“The BRICS nations are in control. Every day the US Dollar is worth something, send a thank you note to Putin and China for allowing the US dollar to live another day”. Evidently Putin and the BRICS nations have somehow engineered their economic / empire building strategy such that they can move with impunity. The Petro-dollar is about the only reason the US dollar can function anymore as a world reserve currency”.
As of December 2015
Russia and the BRICS nations (including China) have been able to move through the middle east with both policy and military strategy that is unlike anything that has been seen in recent history. In addition to advances in Ukraine, the recent advances in Syria (and likely Iraq next) is a sign of BRICS nations establishing dominance in the middle east. Since the September 2014 broadcast, Russia / Putin has moved to the forefront of both parties political debate as someone “both sides are going to have to learn how to deal with”. Despite sanctions, Russia has also been able to (on some levels) dramatically increase it’s economic viability (gdp/gnp). The September 2014 broadcast also alluded to Russia and China increasing precious metals (gold and silver) reserves, which they have done consistently to current.
Red Pill Report w/ JD Moore: November 14th, 2014
“In terms of petroleum product pricing, the BRICS nations are and are going to continue to drive the price of petroleum lower for a number of reasons: The supply glut will add a “rocket booster” effect to inflation (additional US consumer income moves into capital markets vis a vi retirement products, 401k’s, etc), and drives US capital markets [DIJA] much higher.” “The lower petroleum pricing will also lead to an increase in metrics such as Consumer Confidence and Consumer Spending”.
As of December 2015
From November 2014 to December of 2015 crude oil plunged from the 80.00 USD/bbl range to the now unheard of 35.00 USD/bbl range. In addition to accurately forecasting a dramatic decrease in price per barrel (even beyond our initial research), more importantly the variant of Evolution 4.0 that was used was able to accurately forecast the why. By driving oil prices down, BRICS nations (most notably Russia) has (as forecasted) created a “glut” of supply. In addition to rendering the US Shale marketspace useless (which requires + 72.50 per barrel according to our research) to be competitive on the open commodity markets, as predicted, much of the resiliency of the US market is from capital not being spent on petroleum. Additional research we did (non radio mentions) also included the effects on the manufacturing segment (beyond logistics) into various products that require petroleum to be made (such as plastics / plastic composites).

“One of the primary themes in the FOREX markets has been “consolidation” or a lead up to consolidation. Both BRICS nations as well as some anglowestern banking nations have been likely intentionally moving their currencies closer and closer to parity / par value. This would make the process of currency consolidation much easier than if there was a wider “gap” between valuation” “Look for the BRICS nations especially to start moving their currencies closer to par value using the Yuan Renminbi as a benchmark standard.” “Also look for an artificially strengthening dollar as an attempt to repress the growing economic power of Eastern currencies”.
As of December 2015
Since October 2014 the BRICS nations currencies have in fact moved closer to par value as have some of the Anglo Western banking nations currencies (most notably the USD / EUD). Also, open talks of a “Eurasian trade zone” dollar (also something we spoke about in radio interviews in the fall of 2014) has been openly discussed between BRICS nations (most notably Russia and China). We also mentioned the AUD (Australian Dollar) and NZD (New Zealand Dollar) telling something of a story (those nations do approximately 50 / 50 distribution in business (sovereign level) between the Anglo Western and BRICS economic systems. Since then the AUD/USD pair declined sharply from 2014 into December of 2015. Based upon additional research as well as expert input, this could be the result of the Aussies de-dollarizing / de dollar leveraging in preparation for a shift towards a BRICS nation currency partnership on some level.
Winter of 2014: Rogue Money w/ V the Guerrilla Economist
“One of the things that we have seen a very real possibility of is in the event of a dollar [currency] implosion, more financially sustainable states becoming independent republics or states. Based upon Evolution 4.0 [variant] analysis, look for the BRICS nations (most notably Russia) to possibly encourage or make reference to Texas and Alaska becoming independent nation states of some variety because of petroleum reserves. Also, Hawaii may very well become the “Monaco of the west” for the increasingly wealthy segment of far east [Chinese/Russian] business people.”
As of December 2015
Note: This is one even we were amazed at the accuracy of. Shortly after the broadcast (December of 2014) of this forecast, the spring of 2015 featured several main stream outlets carrying the news story “Putin encourages Texas to secede from the United States”. At the time we were speaking with several Texas state officials (up to the state senate level) about the possibility of such a statement being made and were told “that will never happen”. In terms of our radio broadcasts, this is when many of the internet streaming radio hosts realized that what we had built was / is unlike anything that has been seen before. Additionally, in the fall of 2015, the state of Hawaii openly began discussing and tendering the idea of state independence as the Sovereign Kingdom of Hawaii (beyond the usual sovereign-state movements). Based on additional research since then (with the production version of Evolution 4.0), research indicates that in the event of a “dollar implosion” the plausibility of Texas returning to “republic” status is better than 75%.
