This YouTube video (April 8, 2025) captures a discussion with David Rogers Webb, author of "The Great Taking," who reiterates his prediction of an imminent 1929-style global market crash, which the host believes has begun. Webb explains his reasoning, pointing to unprecedented shifts in market behavior and arguing that the current financial turmoil and trade policies are intentional acts, reminiscent of the lead-up to the Great Depression, designed to dismantle the existing financial system and usher in a new one centered around central bank digital currencies. He dismisses the narrative of these actions being benevolent efforts to restore American industry, instead characterizing them as a planned "controlled demolition" with severe consequences. Webb also offers advice on navigating this period, suggesting individuals reduce exposure to the securities system and invest in tangible assets.
The Great Taking: Looming Market Crash Analysis
Briefing Document: The Great Taking and the Looming Market Crash
Date: April 7th, 2025
Subject: Analysis of "The Great Taking and the Looming Market Crash" and related interview with David Rogers Webb.
Source Material: Excerpts from "The Great Taking and the Looming Market Crash" timeline and cast of characters, and excerpts from the "The Worst CRASH Since 1929 Is Happening NOW! | David Rogers Webb" interview on the "parallel systems broadcast."
Key Themes and Important Ideas:
This briefing document outlines the core arguments presented by David Rogers Webb regarding a predicted and unfolding significant market crash, its alleged intentional nature, historical parallels with the Great Depression, and potential future implications. Webb posits that recent market events are not natural economic cycles but rather orchestrated moves leading to a collapse of the current financial system and the potential implementation of a new digital currency regime.
1. Accurate Prediction of a Market Crash:
•
David Rogers Webb, author of "The Great Taking," is highlighted for his accurate prediction of a market rollover and a "1929 style crash" just three weeks prior to the interview date (April 7th, 2025).
•
Mike, the host of the "parallel systems broadcast," congratulates Webb, stating, "You called it. Couldn't have made a better call. It might be the call of the decade."
•
The interview details the unfolding market crash in the week leading up to April 7th, with "America had the worst week since the 2020 COVID crash."
2. The Shift from a "Closed System" to QE and the "Everything Bubble":
•
Webb describes a pre-2003 financial market as a "largely closed system" where money flow was traceable between sectors, with the Fed providing occasional liquidity.
•
He argues that an "unprecedented" simultaneous rise in all equity markets and bond prices in mid-March 2003, preceding Ben Bernanke's speech on suspending mark-to-market accounting, marked the beginning of quantitative easing (QE), an "exogenous source of money."
•
According to Webb, this QE created an "everything bubble" in the global financial system from post-2003 until recently. He states, "we have to understand that there is this exogenous source of money that created the everything bubble that we have been in."
3. Unprecedented Market Divergences Signaling a Liquidity Withdrawal:
•
Webb points to two unusual market days in July and August of the previous year (2024) where equity markets declined significantly (e.g., Nikkei down 12%), but bond yields and the US dollar did not react in historically typical ways (dollar spike, bond yield drop).
•
He emphasizes a more significant event in March of the current year (2025) where "all global equity markets" experienced simultaneous down days, accompanied by a falling US dollar and rising bond yields – a combination Webb deems "unprecedented" and a "tip off."
•
He interprets these divergences as evidence of "a decision has been made to disappear liquidity on a vast scale from the global financial system. It is the reverse of the exogenous source that created all the liquidity."
4. The Intentional Nature of the Crisis and Parallels to the Great Depression:
•
Webb asserts that the current market downturn is "not a natural phenomena. This is being made to happen."
•
He draws a direct parallel to the Great Depression, stating that the "escalating and escalating trade war" was the textbook explanation for its global reach, and the current tariff policies are "shocking" and "designed to provoke a response," ultimately damaging the real global economy.
•
He dismisses the narrative that Trump's tariffs aim to revitalize American industry as "flatout lies" and "misdirection," arguing that the offshoring of US industry was driven by US corporations seeking higher profit margins and facilitated by tax policies allowing multinational companies to avoid US taxes. He states, "The destruction of the un industrial base of the United States was organized from within the United States."
•
Webb suggests the Fed intentionally created the bubble in the 1920s and the subsequent collapse in the 1930s by keeping credit tight. He believes a similar intentionality is at play now.
5. Potential Market Trajectory and the "Panic Freefall":
•
Webb anticipates a "panic freefall day" characterized by "sell at market orders" and institutional capitulation, which has not yet occurred as of the interview.
•
He expects sharp upward movements ("rip roaring straight up day") following the initial panic, driven by short covering, making the market very difficult to navigate.
•
He foresees a longer-term deflationary depressionary outlook, potentially with inflationary aspects due to currency debasement resulting from massive money creation. He describes it as a "witch's brew" of deflationary pressures masked by prior debt expansion and money printing.
6. The End Goal: Regime Shift and Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC):
•
Webb believes the ultimate goal is to collapse the current global financial system and implement a "regimeshifting strategy," which he identifies as the introduction of a central bank digital currency or a similar system controlled by central authorities. He states, "This is about collapsing the global financial system and then coming with in in in that period one of the apologists for the Fed C called it a regimeshifting strategy and that's what it was and that's what this is now it is I what what what we know that it will be something like a central bank digital currency..."
•
He draws a historical parallel to the Fed's alleged actions during the Great Depression, where they supposedly allowed numerous banks to fail to consolidate power within Federal Reserve banks.
7. Strategies for Individual Financial Safety:
•
Webb advises individuals to "not participate in the security system" due to the risk of intermediary insolvency and lack of true ownership.
•
He suggests reducing debt, exploring ways to access funds from retirement systems (even with penalties), and investing in "real things" and physical assets. He emphasizes eliminating intermediaries and owning assets directly.
•
He advocates for state-level initiatives to promote transactional gold and silver and challenge federal taxation on precious metals transactions as a way to circumvent the central banking system.
8. The Role of Tariffs as a Tool of Destruction:
•
Webb reiterates that tariffs act like a tax, increasing prices for the public and disproportionately harming the poorest in society.
•
He views the current tariff push as part of the intentional destruction of the global economy, mirroring the trade wars of the Great Depression.

The sources present a stark warning of an intentionally engineered market crash, drawing parallels to the Great Depression and suggesting a move towards a new financial system dominated by central bank digital currencies. David Rogers Webb's analysis emphasizes the unprecedented nature of recent market divergences as indicators of a deliberate withdrawal of liquidity. The briefing highlights his advice for individuals to reduce exposure to the traditional financial system and invest in real assets, while also advocating for state-level initiatives to promote alternative financial mechanisms. The narrative strongly suggests that current economic events are not accidental but part of a larger, planned "regime-shifting strategy."
The Great Taking and the Looming Market Crash
- Advice and Response Strategies:
- Webb advises individuals to "get out of the security system," as he believes there is a lack of true property rights in securities in the event of intermediary insolvency.
- He suggests reducing debt and acquiring real assets. "You make sure you pay off all your debts... put money into real things into your physical reality how you can live well and be happy with your family through through this through a tough number of years."
- He cautions against trying to time the market for buying opportunities, stating it is "a fool's errand" for most people.
- He emphasizes the importance of not being paralyzed by fear and taking incremental steps to reposition assets. "Whenever I the way my mind works is I pay attention to things if things fit my thinking I don't worry about those things if something does not fit my thinking that's what I worry about that's what I focus on so if I see something that is happening that does not comport with my understanding ing I will uh dig into we would dig into that right away... if something was moving in a way that I didn't understand you know I might just sell half of it."
- He stresses the need to eliminate intermediaries and own things directly. "You you you try to eliminate intermediaries anything between you and what it is you own. You own things directly."
- He advocates for collective action and awareness to resist this planned collapse. "There has to be a a spreading awareness um among people that we are not going to allow this to happen."
- He highlights efforts at the US state level to establish transactional gold and silver, eliminate taxes on precious metal transactions, and potentially challenge the IRS's authority in this area as steps towards creating an alternative financial system.
Timeline of Main Events:
- Pre-2003: The financial markets operate largely as a closed system, with the Federal Reserve (Fed) providing occasional "juice" through open market operations. Money movement within the market is traceable between sectors.
- Early 2000s: US industrial base begins to shut down and offshore to China, a trend seemingly greenlighted and driven by US corporations seeking higher profit margins. Multinational companies develop strategies using offshore subsidiaries and service contracts to significantly reduce or eliminate US taxes on profits.
- March 2003: Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke gives a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations, announcing the suspension of mark-to-market accounting requirements for banks.
- Week Before Bernanke's Speech (Mid-March 2003): Unprecedented simultaneous rise in all sectors of equity markets and bond prices, with no apparent source of the new money. Bond yields drastically fall from 5% to 1%. This is identified as the beginning of quantitative easing (QE), though not explicitly called that yet.
- Post-2003 to July/August of the Previous Year (Likely 2023 based on the interview date of April 7th): The "exogenous source of money" (QE) creates an "everything bubble" in the global financial system.
- July/August of the Previous Year (2024): Two unusual market days occur. Notably, in August, the Japanese Nikkei stock market drops 12% in one day, and other equity markets also decline. However, the 10-year Treasury yield only drops a negligible 10 basis points, and the US dollar does not significantly strengthen. This is identified as an unprecedented divergence from historical patterns during equity sell-offs.
- March of the Current Year (2025): All global equity markets experience simultaneous down days. Unusually, the US dollar falls, and bond yields rise. This is seen as a significant indicator of a decision to withdraw liquidity from the global financial system on a large scale – the reverse of QE.
- Three Weeks Prior to April 7th (Mid-March 2025): David Rogers Webb appears on the "parallel systems broadcast" and predicts an imminent 1929-style market crash.
- Week Leading Up to the Interview (Late March/Early April 2025): Global indices begin to crash, with America experiencing its worst week since the 2020 COVID crash.
- April 6th (Day Before the Interview): The S&P 500 is up approximately 3.5% but gives back all those gains and looks set to close red for the day.
- April 7th (Date of the Interview Recording): Mike from the "parallel systems broadcast" congratulates David Rogers Webb for his accurate market crash prediction. They discuss the potential future trajectory of the global economy, emphasizing that this is not a natural phenomenon but an intentional one. The role of tariffs, reminiscent of the escalating trade wars during the Great Depression, is highlighted as another intentional damaging factor to the real global economy. The narrative of Trump's tariffs aiming to bring back industry to America is discussed and largely dismissed by Webb as misdirection. The interview also touches on the historical context of the Great Depression, the Federal Reserve's alleged intentional role in creating the boom and bust, and the potential for a "regime-shifting strategy" involving a collapse of the current financial system and the introduction of a central bank digital currency. The interview further discusses the orderly nature of the current sell-off, the potential for a panic "freefall" day followed by sharp upward movements, and the longer-term deflationary depressionary outlook with possible inflationary aspects due to currency debasement. Strategies for individual financial safety are briefly discussed, including reducing exposure to the security system and investing in real assets.
- Near Present (Around April 7th, 2025): The Trump administration is reportedly pushing forward with tariffs despite pushback from companies, suggesting potential credits as a form of compensation. Online discussions are emerging about whether the market downturn represents a buying opportunity. Some US states are exploring legislation related to transactional gold and challenging the IRS's taxation of precious metals transactions.
