Fed Vows to Maintain Public Financial Health

Extend and pretend…That’s the government’s way of handling the crisis. Extend credit and cash to those who don’t deserve it. Then, pretend that everything is okay…But the problems don’t go away. They just get stretched into the future…What did the feds do for GM? They took over the company.

On the Importance of Vacation

The Gold Bull Market is Alive and Well

Betting that the gold bull market is over is akin to betting on the wisdom of governments. I’ve happily taken the other side of that bet and following the recent sell-off, have just advised my subscribers to buy up a number of attractively priced gold companies. Investors with a little patience should do very well.

Let the Good Times Roll

Can you be a world dominating company when there’s inherently cyclicality and volatility in the underlying price of the commodity you produce? Or even more simply can commodity stocks be world dominators? If you accept the premise that you’re investing in a great transitional period in history where, generally speaking, standards of living are falling in the West and rising in the East, what Australian companies (if any) are in the best spot to dominate (or at least profit) from this trend?

She’ll Be Right

We said that despite an outlook for the world that was full of de-leveraging and falling asset prices, there is a time and a place to go on the attack. But is now that time and is here that place? And how would you attack anyway? Well, there is certainly a place (albeit small) for speculation in any well-diversified portfolio. But it’s important to remember that Black Swans – statistically improbable according to conventional models, but with very large consequences – don’t always have to be bad things.

Food, Fuel, and Finance: The Crisis of the Three Fs

The grand poobahs of the world’s economy are wringing their hands in worry over the three Fs, each its own kind of crisis: food, fuel, and finance. As usual, it’s the people at the margin (whether lending or with food) that are affected first when surplus turns to scarcity. Despite all the daily signs of abundance here in Australia, let us not forget that there are about four and half billion people on the planet who have little margin for error in their daily lives.

    “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
