Market Sanity is a Fake News Conspiracy Website Promoting Con Artists & Broken Clocks

I challenge you to find a single person featured on this crackpot website who isn't a con artist or a broke clock contrarian indicator.

At the end of the day, you must always answer the following question.

What is their track record? 

Let me save you some time here. 

Their track records suck because they are peddlers of doom porn, gold and other trash.
