  • M3's False Signal: Deflation Scare Doesn't Mean Deflation  [View article]
    That would be my thesis. Watch the dollar. Uncle Buck had better get his act together or the deflation scare scenario will be kaput.

  • 'Hope 09' Continues to Live On [View article]
    I am sorry but you are cherry picking. I do not tout stock picks. I was buying gold miners last year with HUI 150-175 and selling them as risk rose between HUI 360-400. Then buying back after the predictable decline recently. I understand you fancy yourself a market player and I am not going to micromanage the twists and turns with you. My portfolios are updated weekly in the newsletter.

    How bullish were you in March?

  • 'Hope 09' Continues to Live On [View article]
    My portfolio is up 140% since October and is well into new all time highs. My newsletter was aboard the rally while the media were still declaring the end of the world, and I have been in capital preservation mode since spring. You can skim one article and call me a bear or you can do a little work and see what really is. I have had targets on the SPX of 1010 and 1200 up until last week. Unfortunately, the bullish scenario you hope for was dealt a blow last week.

  • Gold Ratios - Time to Pay Attention [View article]
    Sorry you feel that way Genesis. NFTRH41, just out yesterday looked at gold-spx, gold-oil, gold-industrial metals and gold-silver. Obviously what appears here cannot be anywhere near as comprehensive as the newsletter. NFTRH has been on the right side of markets (both bullish & bearish) since its inception in September, 2008. That is because I look exhaustively at these ratios and many other non-standard indicators.

    The market gives so many valuable clues if we are just willing to look at them.

  • Gold Ratios - Time to Pay Attention [View article]
    That is pretty much what I am saying Andrew. Gold has been consolidating its gains off of the unsustainable upside of 2008. When gold outperforms, it is a sign of financial stress.
