The Forecaster

The Forecaster

The Forecaster tells the story of our recent and current economy as an exciting thriller. Martin Armstrong invented a computer that through patterns based on pi could perfectly predict how economies would rise and falls and even when wars would erupt. Since the eighties he has never been wrong. From 1999 to 2011 Armstrong was in prison. Officially for a fraud case, but according to Armstrong he was innocent and was actually incarcerated for not sharing the source code of his computer. In this documentary he tells his tale, while also offering a grim look of where our economy is going.
