At least 2 SE Asian countries will drastically devalue their currency [ my bet is on Sri Lanka and Korea ]
At least one European currency retired by the Euro will make an re-appearance [ Greece or Cypress or an Eastern European country ]
The dollar will rally most of the year then hit the skids in the 2nd half of 2012 and the Fed introduces QE3
Gold and silver will remain sideways [ there will be spikes in both directions ] most of 2012 then move up around the holidays
The US will make surgical strikes in Iran, this will send oil up to and maybe pass $150 and gasoline @ $5 or more
The Arab Spring will continue and will spark a civil war in Iraq and spread into Turkey
We will see more municipal bankruptcies in the US
China and India's economy will contract which will spark recession in Australia popping the housing bubble there.
Central banks will continue to buy gold to build up their reserves s they continue to devalue their currencies on the race to zero.
There will be attempts to reverse tensions between North and South Korea
The metal value of pre-1983 pennies and nickels will be flat for most of 2012
48.5 million Americans will be on foodstamps in 2012
There will be a hybridization between the Paul faction of the tea-party and libertarian elements of OWS
There will be a naval "confrontation" between China and another SE Asian nation [ Korea or India but not limited to those 2 ]
Military coup in Pakistan { not sure if it will be successful ]
Rising nationalism in Europe with the creation of para-military wings in those countries hardest hit with austerity
At least one cult mass suicide
Japan's economy ( already tottering before the Honshu Quake ) now bleeding like a wounded beast after the earthquake will start to collapse as debt-to-GDP ratio hits 200%, it will

Probably easier to have a list of things he does understand.

BT on 7/11/08 posted:
On oil:
Oil will go $200 by Sept. Mexico, Britain will become oil importers by 2009 and no longer exporters (supply will drop). Russia has already said they cannot meet future contracts and we have not had one real crisis yet in the supply chain.
The Stock Market:
I predict the Dow will drop and then go to ratio of 1:6 with gold (now its 1:12) by 2009.
Banks:
I expect Lehman will go under as well as Wamu, and BoA. Freddie and Frannie will go into conservatorship and the US credit rating will be downgraded by 2009. The Fed will come in and nationalize all banking
Economy as a Whole:
The economy is in the toilet and making the last big spiral. X-Mas this year will be the harbinger as more tent cities prop up and media starts comparing these to Hoovervilles. Inflation will be 20%
and the Swiss Franc, Austalian Dollar, Canadian Dollar will pass parity with the USD. I fully expect the Norwegian Krone to be 4:1 to the dollar
Commodities :
Gold will hit $1k again in Sept, $1500 by December and $2500 by June 2009. Silver will be $20, $27
and $50 respectively. There will be gas lines in the summer of next year and possibly food lines
HOUSING
Over 4 million homes will be vacant by 2009. Crime will rise as squattters claim these lost properties as well as bulldozers tearing them down.
STATES
I predict Florida, Arizona, California and Massachussettes will be insolvent for all intents and purpose by 2010.
We will experience hyperinflation by 2010 as Washington refuses to relase its grip on power.
By 2009 Ford will go bankrupt or be bought by a European automaker (most likely VW). Chrysler the same fate or disappear. GM will disappear
