  • TV Ads for Commodity ETFs: A Worrying Sign [View article]
    Yes I would fully recommend the DVDs of the Agora event.

    As for commenting that is what I do for a living as well as a bit of investing so I will carry on doing both!

    But I agree with the argument about it being impossible to call a bubble top - they are far easier to see after the event. All the same the final spike is usually the give away - and I don't actually see one in gold yet - looking back oil was a spike last summer. Commodities are not a homogenous asset class - and that means some ETFs will be rising while others are falling.

    Shorting the S&P looks the obvious trade coming up soon - or I suppose buying bonds, see:

  • Predicting the Next Great Bubble  [View article]
    How about the US stock market recovery from March as a bubble? Where is the recovery going to come from that it predicts? You could do well by shorting the S&P 500 now, see:

  • Predicting the Next Great Bubble  [View article]
    Sorry but the Nasdaq and US housing bubbles were both obvious and I spotted them easily. The next just has to be precious metals - gold and silver - as money printing ushers in inflation and fixed supply currency wins. Oil had it last summer. Just stay ahead of the curve, see: arabianmoney.net/2009/.../

  • 3 Commodity ETFs with High Probability of Near-Term Success [View article]
    Why not go for oil, gold and silver ETFs? These seem a far more solid option that gas and platinum - Goldman has just given a strong pointer to the oil price direction, see:

    Surely the GM bankruptcy is going to be the party pooper! You just have to look around for the 600 pound gorilla sitting in the corner. Yes the police have been called and this party is about to end, see:
