Global Economic Analysis Summary June 2012 (Part 1)

For nearly three years we have been discussing important global macroeconomic trends in order to assess the progress and risks of what has been labeled a global economic “recovery.” The illusion accounting for these improvements was created by a global release of trillions of dollars. One of the most prominent characteristics of this “recovery” is that it has been lop-sided, with advanced nations showing very little progress on many fronts. While Australia and Canada have fared relatively...

After I expose this widespread fraud, I am likely to face numerous repercussions by those in the industry who are upset that I have exposed this fraud that no one ever discusses.

60 Stocks Poised for HUGE Moves: Master List

A few weeks ago we released a 9-hour video presentation discussing the analysis of 60 stocks we felt had a very good chance of significant price movement. In the video series, we discussed numerous aspects of each security, such as the fundamentals, technical, and possible up- and downside. We also discussed the industry or sector of each security and often mentioned additional securities not contained on this list. Since then most of the securities contained on this list have made very large mo...

What's Behind the Natural Gas Price Disparity? (PART1)

A few weeks ago, as natural gas prices in the U.S. continued to set multi-year lows, there appeared to be no end in sight for just how low prices would go. But alas, some temporary relief has come for natural gas pricing. Now that the global recession is spreading (as we warned of several months ago), crude pricing has corrected, while natural gas has bumped up in price. However, the longer-term trend for natural gas remains bearish, while that of crude oil remains bullish. The severe and pe...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 7)

Continuing from PART 6 In this series of articles I have been discussing the myths, lies, dreams and delusions about gold, hyperinflation and other nonsense that continues to be flooded into the media by idiots, liars and snake oil salesmen. With so many lying scumbags, snake oil salesmen and profiteers out there, obviously one of the most important skills to have to avoid falling victim to these rascals is to know how to determine whether someone can be a trusted source of information...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 6)

Continuing from PART 5 It seems like every day we hear about some guy making gold and silver price forecasts, and these forecasts are invariably ridiculously high.   Some of these hacks insist that gold is headed to $5000; others say $10,000; some even say $20,000. I’ve even heard one clown “predict” $57,000! How about $1500 silver? Sure! Why not!?   Maybe if I “forecast” $100,000 gold the media will line up to interview me. Because it is im...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 5)

You certainly don’t have to be an annoying, brainless talking head to make money pumping gold. Anyone without a conscious could have been a millionaire if they had been a gold dealer over the past few years, and if indeed their goal was to make money by that means. But hey, for those of you out there who don’t mind ripping people off or at the very least deceiving them, there’s still time to make buckets of cash selling gold. After all, with typical fees of around 3-5% per tr...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 4)

Gold Bugs and Conspiracy Nuts... There are so many silly statements being made by gold bugs that it would take me a very long time to debunk them all. Most of them are not even worth my time to debunk, as they are so ridiculous. Perhaps the most ludicrous thing about these gold bugs is that they accept anything they read or hear about gold without bothering to analyze the accuracy of the claims, as long as it favors higher prices for gold and silver. Such individuals lack the ability to unders...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 3)

As I previously discussed, I was very bullish on gold in the past. However, I never positioned it as an investment in the same manner as equities or bonds because there is no credible way to value gold other than by the market approach. And if you think the market approach is valid, keep in mind it’s similar to the approach used to value real estate. Moreover, the higher gold rises in price, the riskier it becomes for new purchases because pricing over $1000 will not persist indefinitely...

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 2)

Continuing from Part 1 Why I Became Cautious on Gold Over the past couple of years as gold pricing soared, I began turning much more cautious as I recognized the increasing wave of manipulation that was building. This type of manipulation in gold pricing is not something you are likely to hear about other than the times I have discussed it. In fact, when the topic of gold manipulation arises, gold bugs and other charlatans speak of manipulation by Wall Street and central banks. This is...

Kitco Senior Gold Analyst Agrees with My Views on Gold

As many of you recall, more than a year ago I wrote an article questioning what I felt to be exaggerated, baseless and sensationalist viewpoints and conclusions about the U.S. economy, gold and hyperinflation written by John Williams of Shadowstats.

Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 1)

The following article is more than 80 pp. in length and has been divided into 7 parts. This series of articles represents the most insightful analysis on the gold pumping scene ever published. And it was written by the man who actually spotted the gold bull market in 2001, advised gold to his clients, but was wise enough to have forecast the peak in gold at $2000 two years before it was reached, and warned the public that once the bubble burst, gold and silver would spend many years in a bear ma...

How the Jewish Mafia Screwed You

JewTube allows users to infringe on copyright so that it can make money illegally, similar to its parent company Google, which permits millions of people who sell Google ads to use copyright protected material. But when it comes to stating facts about the Jewish Mafia, JewTube won't permit it; it's considered a violation of its hate speech policy.

Originally Published on May 11, 2012 (May 2012 Dividend Gems)   As we enter a new cycle of global macroeconomic risk, the U.S. stock market continues to resist being pulled into the euro zone vortex.

The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Part 3)

Compared to the U.S., housing finance in Canada is less subsidized by the government. In fact, the Canadian government’s housing finance policies do not explicitly favor home ownership unlike the case seen in the U.S. This is likely to come as a surprise to many, given the stereotype that the Canadian economy is largely socialist.

During the Great Depression, Washington created numerous subsidies in order to boost demand (e.g. government-insured loans from the VA). By the late 1960s, home ownership soared to nearly 64% where it w...

The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Intro)

Taken from the January 2012 Intelligent Investor   Overview Home ownership has been a vital component of Washington’s economic strategy for decades. The marketing end of this strategy has positioned home ownership as a key element of the so-called “American Dream.”  For millions of Americans who are under water with their mortgage, facing foreclosure or in one of many stages of default, home ownership has become an “American Nightmare,” riddled wi...

The Future of the U.S. Real Estate Market (Part 1)

Taken from the January 2012 Intelligent Investor   Boosting home ownership rates has been a goal shared by all previous U.S. Administrations. With the housing market still vulnerable, the Obama Administration has been pointing more towards sustainable home ownership. As a part of the ongoing debate on fiscal consolidation, some have raised the question of whether the U.S. should reconsider its role in housing finance.  The United States has a complex housing finance system with nu...
