The Austrian economists anticipated the present crisis. Should we listen to them when it comes to their predictions about what comes next? In one voice they are saying we will experience inflation unlike we’ve seen in the USA in over 100 years. Inflation is defined as the increase in the supply of money and credit. […]

This is a follow-up to my posting from last May called “Technical Analysis and Trend Following” where I compared the S&P 500’s decline from 2001-2003 to the movement from April 2006 to May 2008. It was a thinly-veiled jab at those who were predicting a resumption of the bull market based upon a recent uptick […]

Peter Schiff of Euro Pacific Capital does a weekly show (on shortwave radio or something, but anyway). The one he did on Wednesday the 24th is a must listen. He tells it like it is. For example, “It’s not the tax payers who are on the hook for any bailout: nobody is talking about raising […]

Like a weathervane, Cramer points toward where the winds are blowing. Like a chameleon, Cramer adapts to the current environment. Like a stock picker, Cramer follows today’s trend and picks what worked. Like a cheetah, you should turn and run from his advice as fast as possible.

A one-stop-shop ETF portfolio fund will appear that gives complete exposure to risk, reward, and diversification all for a low fee. It will include all of the SMILER components as well as some bonds, commodities, and even […]

Here now for a self-fulfilling prediction: I said you’d be seeing more of Jim Rogers in 2008 as commodities and China take the headlines. Here now is Jim on CNBC the other day in an interesting (sometimes funny!) interview in which he says the Fed is doing a poor job, throwing gas on a raging […]

A tag cloud is a visual depiction that identifies the frequently-used words of an information collection. A tag cloud for 2008 might include: Sub-prime. Meltdown. Credit-crisis. Foreclosure. Term-auction. Dollar-collapse. Asset-devaluation. Inflation. Deflation. Stagflation. Recession. Depression. It would be strikingly different from that of just one year ago. Back then we were talking earnings, iPhones, and […]
