Today we look at the promotion of fear-mongering con man Doug Casey by the fake news blog known as Zero Hedge.  This exercise is being performed in order to highlight two important learn points pertaining to media deception and fraud. Before I begin, keep in mind that Casey hasn't written anything for years. His team of copywriting cons do all of the writing for him.  By focusing on Zero Hedge we will demonstrate the most common mechanism by which fake news and scams are now being disseminated on the internet. And by focusing on the piece from Doug Casey published by Zero Hedge, we will demonstrate the severity of the financial/investment related fake news and scams that continue to flood the internet.    As a reminder, I exposed Zero Hedge many years ago. Fo...

A few years ago, we pointed out that the Recommended Securities List created and managed by MIke Stathis, the chief strategist and analyst of AVA Investment Analytics, included the best performing stock in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.  The stock was McDonalds (MCD).  And it returned 31% in 2011. Since then, Mike has successfully navigated research clients in and out of MCD, enabling significant reductions in the total cost basis of the stock. Did You Own the BEST PERFORMING Stock in 2011? WE DID Ever since we have been publishing our Recommended Securities Lists, in addition to the accurate active management guidance contained in the research, numerous securities have provided bonus returns for subscribers after having been bought out.  Just a couple examples hav...

Listen as this average Joe tells his story about Mike Maloney. Unfortunately, his situation is representative of millions of others just like him who have been fed a bag of lies by gold and silver dealers.

Let me begin by stating a few unwritten rules concerning how the US media industry works. Rule #1: You're NOT allowed in the media UNLESS you're Jewish OR you represent a Jewish-owned business. Why? Because the Jews control all media. And they love to discriminate against white people. Essentially, the Jewish mindset is to screw over all gentiles at every opportunity. This is a fact. And it's a foundation of Jewish culture. 

Jim Rogers in early 2013. Notice the fat Jewish weirdo, pinhead loser calling Rogers "one of the insiders of the world financial elite." Too funny!  

Unfortunately, most people have forgotten how critical it is to know the credibility and reliability of the sources they choose to follow. Instead of checking credentials and track records, they go by the number of likes, fake comments, fake reviews, and hearsay from people they have no idea about.  Those who are unfamiliar with me can find out more about my credentials, my background, as well as my investment research track record here, here, and here.

As the rumors of Sears' (SHLD) announcement of bankruptcy proceedings build, it's a good time to reflect on the past. Below is a blast from the past whereby Mike Stathis not only predicted an eventual bankruptcy for Sears years in advance, he actually "guaranteed" it would happen.    Those of you who have been following Mr. Stathis for some time probably also recall that he made the same guarantee regarding RadioShack (RSH) several years before it's bankrutcy.  He's also gone on record as early as 2011 predicting bankruptcy for JC Penny (JCP) during a time when "genius" fund managers such as George Soros, Bill Ackman and Kyle Bass were stockpiling millions of shares. According to Mr. Stathis "Only a fool would have bought Sears, RadioShack or JCPenny anytime afte...

Jim Cramer has been manipulating securities and misleading the sheep who watch CNBC for many years. Yet, no one calls him out on his securities manipulation or horrendous calls, so you shouldn't expect anyone to point out the various levels of fraud that constantly show up on the scam network, CNBC.   Recommended background reading: Why CNBC Viewership Is Collapsing The Truth about Jim Cramer and CNBC (Part 1) You Will Lose Your Ass If You Listen To The Media Selling You With Baseball Legends And The Buffett Name Ron Insana 3-time Loser UPDATE To Hack Of The Day: Compliments Of Thestreet.com And Yahoo!

As someone who has been an active participant in the capital markets for nearly two decades, as well as a watchdog for Main Street exposing media spin and deception, consumer fraud, and securities manipulation, perhaps the single most important thing I have learned is the following:

In the past I have discussed ridiculous inaccuracy of Robert Prechter's track record. Once you become as familiar with the entire investment copyediting industry, you will realize that all of these guys have track records as bad as Robert Prechter.

You may recall a few previous articles I've posted on the vultures out there that prey on your desperation. Some of the most dangerous wolves of the pack are the investment newsletters, and there are thousands.  They are potentially very dangerous because they prey on your greed and desire for easy money. Meanwhile, they send you misleading claims if not outright lies. Hopefully by now you realize that AVA Investment Analytics NOT INCLUDED in this huge group for obvious reasons (check the track record of AVA Investment Analytics chief, Mike Stathis as well as his credentials).  These are the same guys who rent or sell your email and mailing address to other companies, from credit cards and insurance to other newsletters. They also bombard your mailbox dai...

While still working on Wall Street, I began recommending gold in late 2001 to my clients just when the bull market had commenced. As you might imagine, it was very difficult to convince older investors that gold was beginning to enter a bull market after it had done nothing for nearly two decades. By 2006, I felt this bull market was still in the early stages when my gold forecast was officially published in America’s Financial Apocalypse. A good portion of this forecast included the effect of propaganda on the price of gold as the collapse began. Up until the past couple of years there have been some real drivers of the gold bull market. In contrast, over the past couple of years the massive wave of propaganda delivered by an enormous network of gold hacks has been the primary...

After monitoring Jim Rogers’ media appearances for several years, I’ve noticed a very disturbing trend. Once the media monkey conducting the interview has told the audience how great of an investor he is, Rogers is usually asked about the economy and the capital markets to which he most often responds with a predictable rant consisting primarily of hyperbole and more often than not, complete nonsense. Once Rogers has finished delivering his predictable narrative, the media monkey typically asks him to discuss what he considers lucrative investment opportunities to which he invariably recommends commodities and foreign currencies.  I'll get to Rogers' hidden agendas with regards to these persistent recommendations later. Right now I want to focus on risk aspect of th...

The following article is more than 7000 words and greater than 50 pages in length. The full article is only available to website Members and subscribers to one or more of our investment publications as well as other clients who have previously establish business relations with us. Below we have provided some excerpts.       Among the endless number of myths that have been spread by gold dealers and their equally deceitful underlings over the years, there are a few myths that stand out above the others.   One of the more notable myths being propagated by gold-pumping charlatans is the claim that China has been selling U.S. Treasury securities. This myth has been spread repeatedly by thousands of doomsday clowns ever since 2008.   Note that 200...

May 1, 2016 Update #2: After this article and video were published, we learned that Katie Johnson has filed a lawsuit in California alleging that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein sexually assaulted and raped her and another girl (aged 12) on numerous occassions when she was only 13 years old back in 1994.  According to the lawsuit, there was an eyewitness to all of these sick acts; a former "party planner" for Epstein's child sex parties who claims to have been present during all sex acts between Epstein's child sex slaves and his inner circle of high profile pedophiles (most of which were Jewish). The planner alleges that Epstein wanted to know everything that happened during these sick encounters in order to use to obtain insider information for use in the stock market. Apparentl......

Who is Chris Martenson?  Is He Legit?  And is He on Your Side?   In this 3-year investigation of Martenson, we lay out the details of how this snake has elbowed his way into the gold charlatan network in this 60-page report. We issued a warning about Martenson a while back, knowing well what he was up to, but we just did not have the time to do the investigation and write-up required to present a bullet-proof analysis.
