  • Tug of War Between Deflation and Inflation
    There ain't deflation. Look at the monetary base.
    Prices of commodities come down because of supply and demand. Has nothing to do with "deflation".

  • Bears Have Rallies Too
    You forgot to mention that not one bear market in history exceeded 50% to the downside, except 1929 - 1931. In a matter of two months we already plunged 50+%. History tells us there is not much downside left.

    And don't give me the Greater Depression crap, we are no longer on a gold standard.

  • China's Greatest Trade Ever
    Why should the Chinese telegraph what they are up to? Seems silly.
    What I do think is that the Chinese are masters is disinformation and spreading confusion.

  • Real Price of Gold Soars
    Convenietly left out the most important graph: Bond prices versus gold.
    In deflation bond prices outpace money. However, this time around bond prices have collapsed against gold. Shows you we have actually have hyperinflation.
    Regardless what story you buy these days, buy physical gold. Close your brokerage account, 401K and IRAs, and BUY GOLD.

  • Dissonance in the Markets
    a) Equities are having a party....

    b) ...because money printing is proping them up.

    c) ...therefore, the 2 year German govvys are lower on the day.because the bondmarket suspect that in the coming years hyperinflation will be le jeu du jour.

    d) ....but in the short term there are still credit problems and thus EMFX is trading in a risk averse fashion.

    e) ...Additionally, the euro is declining vis-avis the dollar because the mess in the US might be less than the mess in Euroland.

  • Some True Safe Havens Are Still (Surprisingly) Undervalued
    It is not just trust that is important, it is liquidity as well. I think you may find it much harder to buy and sell physical palladium and platinum then physical silver and gold.
    Suppose you need to buy that last soupcan from your local grocer. I bet that he would rather exchange it for gold or silver than for palladium or platinum.

  • Rescuing the U.S. Dollar
    You cannot tax people without jobs. If you try, you will have revolution, riots, and a burning white house.
    Hyperinflation is what is left.

  • US, UK, and Germany Compete to Nationalize the Most Banks
    I wonder if we get a speculative attack on the pound as in 1992.

  • US, UK, and Germany Compete to Nationalize the Most Banks
    EUR and USD are both paper currencies. This time it is Europe's turn to print money and bailout banks.
    You should ask yourself why the West has suddenly all these problem. Why not in Japan, China, Brazil?
    Difference is: we are in debt, there are in surplus.

  • On Board the 'U.S.S. Titanic'
    "contribute as much to your 401k as possible"

    This is surely bad advice. If the middle class wants to preserve their wealth as muc has possible they should close out their 401K and plow all the money in hard assests in their own possesion.

  • Need Gold? Check Your Fed Holdings
    "The United States, with a hoard of 8,133.5 tonnes, is the world's largest holder of gold bullion. "
    Any proof the gold is actually there? No? How inconvenient...
