Japan May Bottom in 2013 & Gold – watch 1570

There has been a long-term trend in major inflations and deflations. The numbers are 23 and 26 years. There is sufficient data that has survived even from the Temple of Apollo on the Island of Delos which was essentially the ancient world’s central bank. Just as we know there was a major default of some […]

France Looks Worse than Greece

The French actor Gerard Depardieu has left France and was publicly ridiculed for not wanting to turn over 75% of his wealth. Gerard has fired back and is clearly pissed-off how he was treated in France and sent an open letter to the Prime Minister. He writes that he paid EUR 145 million taxes in 45 […]

Beware 2013

The one resounding thing that emerged from this world tour and holding conferences in US, Asia, and Europe, was that there is a universal rising tide that realizes something is seriously wrong.

Keeping It Real – WHY THERE CAN BE NO PEG OR STANDARD

The two critical questions on this tour have been what about the Hong Kong-Dollar Peg and the Swiss-Euro Peg? The answer is simple. NEVER in history has there ever been any PEG or STANDARD that has ever survived. Why? Because “shit happens” meaning there is a business cycle that incorporates weather and climate changes as […]

Liquidity

The greatest problem we have is that liquidity is down by more than 50% still since 2007 on a global scale. Governments are getting so aggressive with taxation they are killing the global economy causing capital to just hoard. This nonsense of terrorism has created a global tax gathering process that is unbelievable. Hotels in […]

Goldbugs

It is just amazing that there are fanatics who somehow see gold as the exception to everything as if it were some mystical thing and not an investment, hedge or market at all. They portray me with such hatred even claiming I do manipulate the world economy because I said gold would pause and that […]

Confiscating Gold & Wealth

Most people assume that Roosevelt’s confiscation of gold was unique. There are those who keep insisting that there be a return to the gold standard.
