I kept saying it’s going down. But damn it, it keeps going up. I’m talking about the Dow Jones in its BEV chart below. So, what’s wrong? Clearly, it’s a case of; when you finally figure out the rules in the market, someone else always changes the rules.
Well, the more things change in Washington, the more they stay the same. Under the new leadership of House Speaker Mike Johnson, Congress passed a stopgap funding bill on Tuesday to once again avert a government shutdown. It was quickly approved by the Senate on...

I get the overwhelming sense the economy is rolling over into recession faster than markets expect. U-1 unemployment is shooting higher, and permanent job losses are accelerating, consistent with prior recessions. Long-term inflation expectations reached 12-year...
The major gold miners just finished reporting fantastic Q3 results. A potent combination of higher gold prices and lower mining costs fueled skyrocketing profits, some of gold stocks’ biggest earnings growth ever! These larger miners were generally able to...

So, the CPI and – more importantly, from the Fed’s point of view – core CPI was lower than expected, and the markets soared. What’s next?
It's been a while since I've done a video on gold, so I'll do something today. My expectations haven't really changed. I still think this intermediate cycle is going to test these all-time highs at 2090. I I tend to think gold is probably going to break out...
Why does the world seem falling apart? Wars, pandemics, anti-semitism, polarization, and it goes on. What happened to civility? How did it come to this? To revive the world economy following the 2008 crisis, governments embarked on a tremendous spending binge during...

Why are we using state money instead of market money? Put another way, why can’t we select the money we want to use? Cryptocurrencies are a market alternative, but they haven’t put state money out of business yet. If they ever threaten to do so, the state can...
Savvy investors are always on the lookout for the next big thing – a dominant theme that drives headlines and creates profit opportunities in markets. The problem is that by the time everyone is talking about it, it’s often too late to invest – at least at...

The best performing precious metal for the week was gold, but still off 2.98%. China topped its gold holdings for a twelfth straight month in October, adding to a wave of purchases by global central banks that has lent support to bullion prices.
In the world of “all things gold”, every event is viewed within the context of how it will affect gold prices – on the upside. Earlier this year, it was bank failures. Before that and since then, the focus was/is on the Fed with regards to a possible reduction of...
Miners just plunged, and they did right after tricking the news-chasers. Fortunately, you knew what to focus on.
The national debt just ballooned another $100 billion in 6 days, just like the creation of the world.
