The US Government’s Secret Plan to Destroy the Dollar

Alright then. So yesterday we made a claim that the Fed has ways of causing inflation in the same way that the Gestapo has ways of making you talk. But it was merely a claim. We didn’t prove it. Today, we offer incontrovertible proof that the Federal government of the United States intends to inject money directly into U.S. households using an obscure provision of the recently passed Dodd-Frank shemozzle.

Stock Picks From the Vancouver Conference

I’m back from the Agora Financial Investment Symposium in Vancouver. As usual, this great event offered a diverse mix of ideas. Doom seemed to prevail often enough, with many speakers calling for a healthy drop in the stock market and challenging economic times ahead. Even so, there was plenty of enthusiasm for certain ideas. More about which, below…

Too Much Debt, Not Enough Oil

Because the government has been overpromising, overcommitting and overspending for decades, it is hurtling toward a fiscal train wreck. The numbers have stopped adding up. Looking out, there’s NO WAY that most Western governments can ever pay their ongoing obligations or pay off past debt.

Sinking Prices; Sinking Ships

What is the cure for ‘excess’ capacity? Falling prices. Everybody who is not a swindler or a fool knows it. The real problem, from the activists’ point of view, is not excess or shortage. It is fear. They are afraid of the prices it will take to clear the market. Shares may have to lose half their value. Property could be knocked down by another 20%. Banks and nations may go broke.

Iron Bulls and Budget Fudges

You can’t have steel without iron ore. And you can’t have a resource boom without an iron ore boom. Just ask the government. It’s counting on soaring prices for iron ore and coal (along with soaring volumes) to deliver an extra $6 billion windfall to Federal coffers, according to today’s Australian Financial Review. The government cutting its deficit next year and returning the nation’s finances to surplus by 2012-2013 when the new bill of attainder becomes the law of the land.

Is China Undervalued Right Now?

During the past few years, China has become an increasingly compelling destination for investment capital. But with the recent weakness in the Chinese stock market – and serious cracks showing in the façade of China’s economy – does it make sense to invest in China right now?

China and its Perplexing Investment Strategy

But let’s start with sovereign wealth fund of China, the China Investment Corporation (CIC). CIC was set up in 2007 with US$200 billion of China’s nearly $2 trillion foreign exchange reserves. It’s been shopping ever since, with mixed results. Last year, for example, CIC stood pat and only invested US$4.8 billion outside China.

The Destruction of the Dollar by the Federal Reserve

Then, on the “quiet 23rd of December in 1913″, J.P. Morgan and buddies got Congressional quislings to pass legislation authorizing the creation of the Federal Reserve, and to which I add that the jerk Woodrow Wilson then signed it…

Apparently More Debt is Now Acceptable in Australia

He added that, “There is enormous concern in China about the US currency and the fact that there could be huge losses ahead for China if the American dollar falls…HSBC research shows that China does not face that risk in Australia. Global investors who want to invest in China can do so via Australia with far less risk.

Giant Costco Opens in Melbourne!

Mind you, we don’t have any problem with lower prices. There’s a bit of snobbery about American attitudes toward Wal-Mart and other giant retailers like Costco. After all, isn’t it a good thing when a large part of the population can reduce the amount of money it spends on basic food and necessities?

Is Inflation Necessary for Recovery and Growth in the United States?

It was French economist Jacques Rueff who revealed the scam more than half a century ago. The whole idea of Keynesian stimulus, he explained, was to cause inflation…which would reduce the real price of labor. In a modern democracy, politics prevents wages from falling.

Surely Gold Will Trade at One Times the Dow

World Economy Faces Hyperinflation or Deflation?

What is more likely is that over the coming months, we will get another deflationary scare. Any sell-off in the markets later this year will be met by an even larger stimulus from the policymakers and this will ultimately result in high inflation.

    “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
