The S&P’s Tragic Rise Will Continue

Posted on by

“Equities resumed their run to higher highs and higher lows. This rise has a tragic undertone for its substance is damaging the economy. One must make hay while the sun shines. Let’s examine what to expect and how to position yourself for maximum gains and protection in the mid to long-term. Turbulence in the short term will pass for the markets but socio-economic stresses require that one’s holding be placed in the strongest castles.  Let us then consider a three-part investing strategy that should enable most people to ride the rip tides of these markets and crazed policies and anchor themselves to companies adapted to the new America, and world that is taking shape.”

Q&A With Peter Schiff: Silver Looking Golden

Posted on by

“cHQ: You recently launched the EuroPac Gold Fund (MUTF:EPGFX) with Adrian Day. What sets this fund apart from the gold investing space?  PS: I launched my mutual fund family about three years ago, and I did not want to launch a gold fund then because the sector was pretty hot and the prices were high. Even though I was buying gold as a part of a diversified portfolio, I did not want to create a fund that was exclusively gold and then watch it suffer a big correction. I wanted to wait for the timing to be right.  When I launched it a little over a month ago, I think the timing had never been better and the valuations in the gold sector were as good as I have ever seen them.”

The Ultimate Layer of Financial Protection

Posted on by

“If you have a standard IRA from a large US financial institution, it would only take a phone call from the US government and poof, your dividend-paying stocks and corporate bonds could instantly be transformed into government paper.  It’s happened in Argentina and numerous other countries, and it is certainly an option on the table in the US. Heck, there are already whispers about the US government assuming some risk for US retirement accounts. That’s code for forced conversion of assets into government bonds.  Obviously, this is much harder for the government to do if your retirement assets are sufficiently internationalized.”

Might India Confiscate the Gold of the Temples?

Posted on by

“If the financial woes of the Government worsen, as seems likely, the temptation will increase for them to tap into Temple resources at some point. Who the actual owners of the resources may be, is likely to become more blurred along the way.  We are heading into a confiscatory era—a time when banks and governments reserve the right to go beyond the old method of taxation and to actually pillage the purse of the public. This has begun with bank accounts and pension funds in some countries, and, as the concept becomes a trend, it will take on many forms. Confiscation of temple, church, or synagogue funds may therefore soon be on the table in a variety of countries.”

He Parlayed Coins To Crowns; Mayer Rothschild’s street smarts [2004]

Posted on by

“Mayer Amschel Rothschild believed selling rare and antique coins to the right people could lead to bigger things. He was right. Cultivating rich and well-connected clients among Europe’s royalty brought Rothschild success. His small rare-coin business in Frankfurt, Germany’s Jewish ghetto evolved into a family banking empire.  He organized rare coins and medals into an illustrated catalog, which he had beautifully printed and embossed. In 1765, he brought the catalog to William. Impressed, the crown prince began to buy rare coins from Rothschild. Over the next four years, Rothschild sold some of his rarest medals and coins to William.”

Who’s Making Money in a Market like This?

Posted on by

“Where’s the money? Who is making any money? I lived through one dot.com boom-bust back in the 1990s and early 2000s. Are we watching the next one form up?  Frankly, I had a sense of deja vu with the tech geeks. I detected the same sense of ‘hard work, no money’ in these early-stage, junior-style techs as I presently see across much of the resource and resource development space. It leads me to think harder about fundamental business models. What works? What doesn’t?  Looking at the global picture, where’s the growth? As I noted above, the tech startups with which I met aren’t making much money, despite all the great ideas. The bloom is off the rose even for iconic plays like Apple.”

Precious Metals Paradox: Good Fundamentals Help And Hurt

Posted on by

“Remember to take some profits when they arise and don’t expect logic to prevail. There is no intrinsic reason to believe that unnatural price action will cease or cease to have effect.  A large number of major players gain when PM prices are depressed. Some retail investors can benefit from this by identifying strong buys, entering low and holding, but be prepared for frequent unpleasant shocks and perennial assignment to the contrarian camp of ‘fools.’  When QE ends, if it ever does, equity indices boosted by debt creation may stall out and crash.  In these markets, however, and in an age of interventionism, there are no guarantees outside the castle of the State. Retail investors need a defensive posture.”

Art Cashin: Danger For The US & Strange Happenings In Gold

Posted on by

“While I am far from being a conspiracy theorist, I could see where some of the people involved in that asset class would be concerned because we’ve had several incidences of very large sales.  And they all seem to come at approximately the same time in the relatively early morning in New York, usually before the stock market has opened.  The question there is, why would you suddenly dump a large amount of gold?  Why wouldn’t you try to piecemeal it out over the (course of the) day?   So, if that happens once it could be an accident of technology, or it could be a simple error.  But when it happens 5 times over a period of months, it does raise questions.”

Skewed Rhetoric On Metals And Markets Obscures Best Plays

Posted on by

“The currency chief for Goldman Sachs (GS) last week decreed another lower target price for gold. Jeffrey Currie said the precious metal now is worth $1000/oz. and may sink to $800. He has followed up this tarot reading by saying it was a ‘slam dunk’ to sell gold. GS guidance was echoed by the astrologists at Credit Suisse who YTD have issued almost monthly downgrades on gold. Those investing in the sector must understand that until PM sentiment from major banks and media changes, they will continue to suffer disproportionately on most red days despite strong fundamentals, especially for silver.”
