The economy is holding on by a thread and without the Fed’s Treasury purchases (QE), interest rates would be rising rapidly and the economy would be sinking.

Overt or Covert, “QE to Infinity” is Here
READ THE FULL NEWSLETTER Back in August 2011, a whopping five months ago, I was AMAZED when the Fed outwardly expressed its FEAR of global economic COLLAPSE by announcing an extension of its "ZIRP," or Zero Interest Rate Policy, until "at least mid-2013." I have long espoused that Bernanke & Co. have never had a clue what they were [...]

READ THE FULL NEWSLETTER As long-time readers know, I do not trade gold and silver based on short-term trends. I identify a long-term bull market and "ride the bull," which is not easy to do.

READ THE FULL NEWSLETTER I’ve been in this industry since 1983 and have seen all of the ups and downs along the way. But at no time, in the past three-decades, have I ever seen gold and silver so openly, blatantly and continually manipulated. The “expert” on the causes of this manipulation is our own Ranting Andy Hoffman, and if you [...]
Hyperinflation at the Starting Gate, Silver Bucking and Snorting with Anger
READ THE FULL NEWSLETTER It is amazing how thoughts swirl in my head, thoroughly "shaken and stirred" each day by rapid-fire changes in the worldwide economic picture. The downward spiral of global financial conditions is accelerating, to the point that TPTB's only remaining "policy tools" are PRINTING MONEY and MANIPULATING MARKETS. I have [...]
