Financial markets and institutions are mighty unstable no matter where you look these days. Europe, America, China, Australia. Where are you supposed to go to invest your money?

Dylan Grice: The Man With One Hand

It isn’t often that there is standing room only at a presentation on the future of the Japanese economy. But that’s what I found when I arrived, admittedly a tad late, at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre to listen to Dylan Grice.

Stock Market Hindsight Versus Market Foresight

Occasionally we receive comments along the lines of ‘you try to push the market lower’ or ‘talk the market down’. Some mistake our realism for grumpiness.

Try to imagine a world in which today’s emerging markets have more economic power, and vastly more people, than today’s leaders.

How to Prolong an Inevitable Free-Market Correction

Markets – free markets – are meant to be unstable. They are meant to crack-up from time to time. And thank God they do. Otherwise, we’d be stuck forever with zombie industries and dead end investments.

Below Average Thinking With Thomas Friedman

We got a chuckle out of Thomas Friedman. Maybe he would be good as a brick mason. Or maybe a baker. Shame he got caught up in journalism. He has no talent for it.

Persistent Questions About the Future of the US Economy

The US economy entered a period of debt destruction – a Great Correction, we called it. The question then was how long the Great Correction would last…which depended on what it was correcting.

Everything Isn’t Fine in the US Economy

The US economy has come back to output levels of ’07. But this feeble rebound not only holds the title of “weakest post-war recovery ever,” it also shows that something else is going on. Most economists have no idea what. So, they just think this “recovery” is unusually slow.

Why US GDP Figures Mean Nothing

Here’s a meaningless abstraction for you, Fellow Reckoner. US GDP grew at an annualised rate of 1.7% for 2011. Now, what does that sentence actually tell us?

The State of the Union Address and Obama’s Fairness Doctrine

We had been invited to watch President Obama give the State of the Union address with a group of dinosaurs…a group approaching extinction with dignity and intelligence. You might call them ‘thinking conservatives,’ ‘paleo- conservatives’ or ‘constitutionalists.’

Getting Out of Dodge: Part II

“Generally, one simply must internationalize one’s assets. The biggest danger investors face, by far, is not market risk – huge as that will be – but political risk. The only way to insulate yourself from such risk is to diversify yourself politically and geographically.”

The US Debt Cutting Derby

The public sector is leveraging up. The US is going deeper and deeper into debt. As it adds to the quantity of its debt outstanding, the quality should go down. And the price too. But it’s not. So, either the times are out of joint…or we are.

    “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
