Faith in the Gold-Dow Ratio

Strikes make travel tough today – in both London and Paris. The unions have called for massive snarl-ups to protest governments’ efforts to bring spending under control. The subways aren’t running. Trains are halted. The French leftist newspaper, Liberation, says that “millions are expected to take to the streets.”

Oh, ok then

“The Coalition has started to put the heat on the three hold-out rural independents – saying it was ‘inconceivable’ any of them would back a Labor government that had joined the Greens to push a left-leaning agenda.”Oh. So it’s all over.Well, the market enjoyed it.

If the Economy is Not Recovering It Isn’t Getting Enough Stimulus

But the big story? Stimulus!

Here is the International Herald Tribune on Monday:

The Bubble Deniers Deny that Their Own Stimulus Caused it

In the non-communist world, if a man had money and no bread, he exchanged the former for the latter…and sat down to dinner. As if guided by an ‘invisible hand,’ millions of people did the same thing. Everyone tried to get a bit more grease on his plate, by making his own decisions based on the facts before him.

Crash, Depression, Hyperinflation – the Triple Crown of Financial Catastrophes

It is remarkable enough that we have been able to witness a genuine market crash. The crash of ’87 barely counts. It sent prices down as much as a third all around the world. But it was a very short-lived affair. Bread put in the oven at the beginning of it was still doughy when it was over. Then, it kept rising for the next 20 years.

When Gold Ruled the Earth, Part II

    “Why a mining executive told me to F*** Off
    in front of a whole room of investors”
    Dr. Alex Cowie doesn’t have the most popular of jobs. At least – not inside the mining industry. For his readers, it’s another matter entirely.

    As Laurence says: “I have never bought a stock and got a 100% return before … thanks for providing the information for me to have that experience – and all within two months too!”

    Right now Alex has unearthed six “must buy” resource stocks for the year ahead. His method for finding them might annoy a few people in the industry… but it could help make a lot of money in 2012 too.

    Find out why, right here
