“We are now near the end of the declining phase of the depression.”

The Current Financial Bubble, 1982 – 201?

The Investment Secrets of T. Rowe Price

Price is most famous for founding the investment firm that bears his name. But he was a very successful investor in his own right. He was an advocate of buying obscure or out-of-favor growth stocks.

Banks Could Face Serious Trouble from Losses on Residential and Commercial Real Estate

“For the North Atlantic economies,” Debelle concludes, “this was a big recession which, combined with large falls in both commercial and housing property prices, should result in large losses.” He goes on to point out that the government-guaranteed larger lenders might survive these larger losses. But smaller regional banks might not.

Mainstream Economists Congratulate Themselves

There must be some dark corner of Hell warming up for modern, mainstream economists. They helped bring on the worst bubble ever…with their theories of efficient markets and modern portfolio management.

Power Begets Gold, then Gold Begets Power

As near as we can tell, gold is fairly priced. It will buy about as much as it would have bought 500 years ago…or 2,000 years ago, for that matter.

    “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.
