Ian Gordon: LongWave Cycle of Winter to Drive Gold to $4,000/oz.
June 22, 2010 by Editor · Leave a Comment
Investors are beginning to understand that the U.S. dollar is not the safe haven they perceived it was a few years ago and concurrently, neither are U.S. Treasury notes and bonds. Given the American national debt and deficit problems, from both a fundamental and technical perspective, the U.S. greenback has the potential for considerable downside. Ergo and by axiom, gold bullion has significant upside potential to $1,500 per ounce over the short to mid-term time horizon of 1 – 2 years and $4,000 per ounce over the longer term. Words: 1104

Americans: Pull Your Heads Out of the Sand Before It’s Too Late!
May 9, 2010 by Editor · Leave a Comment
A demographic stampede is about to pulverize American society. Eighty million retirees—the baby boom generation—are rapidly heading into their retirement years and, according to a recent survey, Americans have less money than ever. Being so unprepared can only mean a very unhappy “retirement” unless they pull their heads out of the sand and do something about it before it is too late. Words: 807

Return OF Capital vs. Return ON Capital – What’s in Store for 2010?
March 20, 2010 by Editor · Leave a Comment
When Bernanke announced back in 2009 that he saw “green shoots” in the U.S. economy, it was a green light for global investors to start dipping their toes back in the water. Gradually investors started feeling better about the world and as they felt better, they started taking on more risk. It was a shift in focus, away from the mandate of “return OF capital” back toward one of “return ON capital.” So, what’s in store for 2010? Will it be risk-aversion or risk-taking? Words: 794

Crisis and Aftermath: Economic Outlook and Risks for the US
February 28, 2010 by Editor · Leave a Comment
This boom will be pleasant while it lasts. It might go on for a number of years, in much the same way many people enjoyed the 1920s. Be that as it may, we have failed to heed the warnings made plain by the successive crises of the past 30 years, and this failure was made clear during 2008–09. The most worrisome part is that we are nearing the end of our fiscal and monetary ability to bail out the system. In 2008–09 we were lucky that major countries had the fiscal space available to engage in stimulus and that monetary policy could use quantitative easing effectively. In the future, there are no guarantees that the size of the available policy response will match the magnitude of the shock to the credit system. Words: 2262

I am not suggesting that sufficient wisdom presently resides in the leadership of the world to see this but as their false remedies are tried, and one after the other backfire, the ultimate solution to the crisis, gold-revaluation, will eventually dawn on the world. Words: 1743
