Whoa. Out of politeness for another poster's position, i decided to research this "Armstrong" who inspired such exact prediction dates.
Martin Armstrong is an online purveyor of trading software (your first indication that his main interest is your wallet). He predicts VERY specific dates in which certain economic events will happen. He's been doing this for years. He's been wrong for years. His stuff is nonsense.
He once wrote that he predicted the exact DAY of the OCt 19, 1987 crash 13 years earlier: "In trying to test the validity of October 19th, 1987 being precise or coincidence, I stumbled upon something I never expected. This is the first time I will reveal something that I discovered and kept secret for the last 13 years. The total number of days within an 8.6-year business cycle was 3141. In reality, the 8.6-year cycle was equal to p (Pi) * 1000. Suddenly, there was clearly more at work than mere coincidence. Through extending my studies into physics, it became obvious that randomness was not a possibility."
OMG. People seriously believe this stuff? AND POST ABOUT IT SO OTHER PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM WILL SWALLOW IT??
The basis for the 2032 date as the end of some major economic cycle was written by this moron on Sept. 26, 1999:
"While this business cycle can be calculated on quarter-cycle intervals of 2.15 years into the final peak for this major wave formation of December 24th, 2032. Though this is long beyond my life expectancy, there is so much more behind the true understanding of the driving forces within the business cycle. I have learned that it is easy to claim coincidence and ignore the telltale signs of a hidden order."
That's right. He could tell - TO THE DAY! - what the economic cycle would look like in December 2032...in 1999! The Dec 24 reference is unlikely to be a coincidence; he also writes a lot about the star of Bethlehem signalling the birth of Jesus, etc.
The same year, he was convicted of stealing $700MM from investors.

People have privately send me several PMs about this thread, thanking me for smacking out know-nothings who spew garbage. I tried to do it with some humor and goodwill. There was a thread recently about why don't older men MENTOR younger men, and one reason offered was that young men generally are are so unreceptive to it, due to false confidence in unsupported positions. I was this way, once. So i decided i'd try to help by offering some pointed but humorous insight.
Humor time is over. There is some SERIOUSLY stupid and fucked """advice""" being given above. Follow it at your own risk. The smart ones will ignore it. The dumb ones will argue "but...but....I BELIEVE!". Which one will you be? As the old saying goes, "If you walk into a room and can't tell who the sucker is...it's you". Maybe we should update it to "If you walk into an internet thread and can't tell..."
You are all busy men. Your time is limited. Your thirst for knowledge is real. You should be VERY, VERY upset with people who try to waste your time with bullshit theories on important topics (there are very topics as important to you as YOUR money) that they know very little about. They are a direct threat to your future wealth. Treat them accordingly. Inexperience is forgiveable. Stupidity is not. You should be violently angry at people who waste your time with bad advice.
Time to bury this thread. Read actual economic data and research, not internet charlatans. Read less about crypto (which is a tiny fraction of the world economy), trading cycles (spoiler alert: no one gets it right!) and more about the actual drivers of the economy and capital markets. You'll get rich slow this way. But you will get rich. All you'll get from following idiots is stupid and poor.
