      Too Much Money Chasing Too Few Commodities
      This inflation was all predictable and predicted in the late 1990's when all the "smart people" were deflationists. Greenspan and Bernanke didn't create inflation. Falling supply (due to twenty years of underinvestment) and mariginal growing demand from newly developing countries created inflation....as was true after 1949 and after 1896. It's a simple cycle.

      The FED is making it more certain and perhaps speeding inflation up a bit, but they are really powerless to make a lot of difference in the long run. As inverstors our job is to make money for ourselves and families (clients?) to try to stay ahead of inflation and taxes. It's harder now than when bonds are going up year after year and stocks too, but it can be done.

      If you are in commodities and gold and infrastructure (shipping) you should be proud, not feeling guilty. You are following the market instead of fighting it. You are a hero to those you are responsible for now or in the future, and you are paying taxes which may help others. You'll be paying a lot more taxes by 2010. :))

      Ivanhoe Mines Gets a Boost from SouthGobi Discovery
      Friedland is the self-made cat with nine lives. When one of his wunder-mines fails he's always got another somewhere that is the mine of the future. He's just lucky I guess,,,,,,hmmmmmmmm

      What's the Mainstream Missing on Gold?
      Ancient balderdash like this gives gold a bad name. Gold is simply a fairly rare commodity that goes up during inflation and down during disinflation. That's all we need to know to use it constructively in a portfolio or to trade it.
