    • Friday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets [view article]
      I sent my absentee ballot in already and voted for Green or Libertarian and for only my Democrat Congressman Mr. Earl Blumenaurer who has consistently voted against the wars, against the bail outs, etc. My own gut sense is we are in for a very long and deep depression situation, and there is no government or combination of governments that can prevent this from happening. The lows we see now, will look high in another six months as more businesses fail, jobs become scarce worldwide, and trade slows. Oct 04 11:16 PM
    • A World Without Shorts [view article]
      My prediction: No matter what the government does, it can't make bankrupt companies solvent. The dollar is going to sink sharply, gold will soar. Where does our government which is already O/D to the max keep coming up with hundreds of billions more for bailouts??? I guess the printing presses are working overtime?? Sep 20 01:04 PM
    • The Evolution of the Bear [view article]
      It is one bubble bursting after another, and the bear is only begnning to growl. I don't believe the financials have come close to bottoming, as yet. This is DEFLATION happening before our eyes, while we worry about inflation. Aug 10 10:11 AM
    • A Closer Look at the Dollar Rally [view article]
      I always appreciate Michael's analysis and read them regularly. He is right, more often than wrong. Yet, something in me says this is all being manipulated, and is temporary, albeit it may go on for some time. As long as the US Govt is running the gargantuan deficits and the trade deficit remain in hundred of billions, I can't see the dollar remaining strong for too long. I, however, living Asia and converting dollars to local currency enjoy the higher dollor. Aug 09 02:38 PM
    • Put Volume Spikes While Commodity Stocks Falter [view article]
      Total indicator of market manipulation. Aug 05 07:14 PM
    • The US Dollar Elevator is Going Up! [view article]
      I could not disagree more. Whoever wrote this must be living in Disneyland. Maybe exports are up 9%, but the deficits of govt and trade are so far out of whack that even 100% export increase will not save the USD. Aug 03 09:14 AM
    • Historic Financial Collapse Underway? [view article]
      I agree with you 1000000%... Keep it up and I hope some few listen and heed your warnings. The USD is a dead currency, only time is separating it from the crematorium. Jul 20 01:23 PM
    • Mid-Year Report: Is a Summer Turn-around Still Possible? [view article]
      I do not agree that oil is rising due to speculation. There is certainly the law or supply and demand in effect; Anyone who can't see this must be blind. Also, there are so many trillions of USD sitting in far away places, earning nothing and seeing their buying power go down moment by moment. Is it not wiser to buy something you can use, whether it be iron, manganese, oil, wood, cement, anything is better than the USD Jul 07 07:13 AM
    • Big Lots, Wal-Mart and Costco: 3 Musketeers of the Pooring of America [view article]
      I like COSTCO.. Considered by me the best managed of the big box retailers. Never had a bad experience with COSTCO and I feel certain they will thrive as the US economy worsens. I don't know BIG LOTS, but from the description above they sound as though they are doing very well. No matter how bad things get, people have to eat, wear clothes and buy personal necessities. These big three are geared for this. Jul 05 02:35 PM
    • Five Tactics to Beat a Bear Market [view article]
      I agree with the DIVIDEND point in particular. I like the Canadian energy trusts. Jul 03 09:47 AM
    • High-Yield Canadian Royalty Trusts: What's the Catch? [view article]
      I have most of my money in these trusts, as I appreciate the monthly income and the relative stability of the shares. I also expect the energy trusts will be showing great earnings as they start selling oil and gas at the current prices, not those or one or more years ago. I love the DRIP plan of PGH, which has given me a 25% plus return in the last 12 months. Jun 27 06:23 PM
    • Investors at Risk of Losing Everything [view article]
      I am quite sure there is no cure for the USA problems, which are the cumulative effects of decades of wrong policy that has favored the multi-nationals moving all their production offshore. Jun 08 06:00 PM
    • Preparing for the Fall [view article]
      Can't argue with this.. Albeit I remain long the C$ trust which are paying me nicely whether the shares go up or down, and being mostly energy related, I expect to see dividend increasing as they sign new supply contracts at currently market prices. Jun 07 03:58 PM
    • When Will American Realize the World Has Changed? [view article]
      The world has changed!!! Oh what an amazing realization! Anyone with the eyes ears open could see this evolving for the past 25 yrs! Sorry, the USA is not any longer a "super power", it is just one small nation, and a weak one at that, financially, and in all other ways. Being perceived as the world's bully has succeeded in alienating most of the people on this planet successfully. May 26 08:51 AM
    • Coal is Just Amazing [view article]
