Gold and Silver ETFs on Fire: Get Ready for a Reversal [View article]
Is trading in and out of gold/silver such a good idea? I thought the hard commodities were supposed to be long-term insurance against the current weakening fiat currency. Excuse my ignorance but fancy charting doesn't impress me at all!
Most of this commentary seems to reflect and describe just exactly where the majority voting american public has through its unfortunate lack of education and awareness as to how to insist on responsible government leadership brought us. To the brink of a tragic economic and social collapse.
In what should be a prosperous advanced democracy, such a dark path is trully a useless waste of human potential that will be embossed in the annals of history for centuries to come, that is if the human survives!
Option Trader Friday Outlook: Is the Dollar Going UUP? [View article]
The federal reserve board here is quite expert at creating bubbles, commodities are merely the latest convenient vehichle for their specious economic philosophy, though I agree with Prechter that gold can be tricky and may be wildly overvalued at present. But there is also the argument that it is highly undervalued as well. Time will tell which argument is most accurate as this market continues to give signals that perhaps a severe correction is at hand with a strong dollar rally certainly fitting that scenrio, it may not be far off at all!
Paul Tudor Jones: Gold's Undervalued and Bonds Are a Curve Flattener Play [View article]
This is interesting, Tudor's econometric model confirms, according to him, gold as undervalued by 20%. Robert Prechter's Gold/Dollar 1913-2009 comparative chart/model confirms gold as overvalued by 50%! What we can use here in regard to this highly emotional and obsessive controversy is a fiercely objective editor on this website to present a detailed analysis of both views so that the investing public can make their own determination concerning gold.

You're absolutely right. One must understand "true diversification" in order to have had any beneficial involvement with hedge funds during this cycle. And of course one must have some medium for knowing which hedge funds were going to be lucrative and which ones were not and most people either lack the skill and or or patience you apparently possess, if in fact you experienced the success you've claimed.
Marc Faber: Equities Safer than Dollars [View article]
It is always refreshing and informative to hear Mr. Faber speak on economic issues and the economy. I thought I was the only one who recognized that our government houses 'fiscal criminals' as a matter of course!
But as they say, "it takes two to tango"! Of course only a brain- washed, apathetic public allows such vermin to be elected and appointed in the first place!
You Can Spend Your Way Out of a Recession [View article]
Mr. Mc Teer,
"More spending is needed to generate more income. Therefore more spending will do the job". Where is the money for all this spending going to come from, the public that has been the driving force of this economy by 70% or so as unemployment continues to rise? Production, the result of job growth has been the only remedy for recessions and only after toxic elements in the system economically have been flushed out. Have you any data that confirms any society that has recovered from a recession by any means other than job creation? I haven't! What will you do when your money runs out and you have no more to 'spend'? Shed some 'Teers'?
By the way, I know that the author of this article did not quote the comment Hayek supposedly made alleging Keyne's 'greatness', so I went to the website (hayekcenter.org) to veryify for myself and agree with the listed commentary made earlier by another web visitor. Not one of the 13 or so comments I observed attributed anything to Keyne's comming from Hayek that amounts to a compliment of even so much as Keyne's having barely more than a rather primitive understanding of economics or that much of an interest in the study of it either!
Strange how the thinking of a segment of the population can be so skewed. But that no doubt explains why the leadership which foster and intensify these needless economic fiascos get to hold office in the first place. They get elected and re-elected by those folks who unfortunately constitute the voting American majority! Strange how a nation founded upon the word Independence seems to have such a problem electing "Independent" candidates to office! Whenever I view the voting tallies in congress and the senate on ESPN, I see Republican and Democratic votes, but none for any Independents!
How sad for what should be an advanced democratic system and a model to the world of societal and fiscal excellence. How sad indeed! Yet again on second thought, perhaps the old saw still lives "you have to give the people what they want" and these 'people' love their popularity contest winning pathalogical liars who promise what hey can never deliver in order to get elected and proceed to screw the taxpayer who is paying for all of this, just in case you hadn't noticed!
I have wondered about Mr. Volker and was quite amazed to see him sit around in the present administration having to wait on queue to see the president! In my opinion he is the only person in anyway connected to the present administration who could possibly offer substantive policy conerning the economy based upon both his performance in the Carter and Reagan administra- tions and his background.
My question is why he has waited so long to speak up concerning economic issues. What does he have to loose? His 'job', his popularity. I don't think so.

I agree with the comments of those who understand this is a market determined by market mood and the skillful and adroit machinations of seasoned traders expert in timing them. After all that's how they make their living, they should be that good at it! They have no doubt figured out already when this rally is going to dry up, or if not will pick up the signals like ravenous wolves as and when the haunting hour approaches.
This economy has nothing to do with the markets in any manner whatsoever!
Recent Oil Rally: Another Crowded Trade [View article]
You think oil and natural gas prices are going lower here and globally in the future? When China and India begin accelerating their purchases of automobiles you will see what supply and demand can do to oil prices in a way you have not yet witnessed!
I concur, Robert Prechter has been saying for quite some time now that Gold will top even if it goes over $1,000.00 and the Dollar will experience a significant rally, problem is timing. When will they top and bottom? That is the question.
Strong Start for Bull Market, But Investors Are Nervously Eyeing the Exits [View article]
Sir,
You don't define whether this is a secular bull market or a cyclical bull rally in a larger trend bear market secular in nature. As a consequence your information could be harmful to inexperienced investors who don't have the educational background in market cycles to differentiate between the two!

Money Supply: The Myth of Hyperinflation [View article]
Mr. Sunshine,
Not to rain on your parade (and I do agree, Mr. Bernanke and company have proven skillfull in shifting money around from pillar to post, and I do agree that there has not as of yet been a frenzy of printing press activity at the FED ), but the history of central banking systems does not augur well for financial stability and never really has. Regardless of the polished balancing act Mr. Bernanke and his jongleurs pull off with impressive aplomb, the die has already been cast for serious heavy duty deflation/depression and an examination of the historical data on the Federal Reserve Board bears this out, a fact you fail to mention.
