Monday, February 4th, 2008

February 4, 2008 Last week, I wrote an article called “Even After a Strong Run, Gold Stocks Still a Bargain.” In that article, I wrote that gold stocks, both the majors and especially the junior resource stocks, were highly undervalued given historical ratios of gold stocks to the price of their underlying commodity.

You Heard it Here First…Again

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

August 9, 2007 – Once again, something we predicted months ago is happening and being reported by a major world newspaper. And yet, the foolishness in the U.S. Congress continues, illustrating that they “just don’t get it.” Thank God U.S. Congressman and women are not responsible for our nation’s fiscal policy though they really couldn’t [...]

May 22, 2007 – On September 25th of last year, I blogged about the close relationship of Goldman Sachs and the U.S. government and how it was more likely than not that Goldman Sachs dumping of 72.66% of the unleaded gas position in its commodities index right before the mid-term Congressional elections was politically motivated.

Future Chinese Stock Market Problems are being Created Now by its Banking Industry

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

16 May, 2007 – Here’s a story I’ve been meaning to write about but just haven’t had the time. The People’s Bank of China last month increased their Reserve Ratio Requirement (RRR) 50 basis points to 11% in an attempt to reduce inflationary measures.

After BAIDU, Possibly Focus Media

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

29 April 2007 – There’s a technique I call re-visiting the same stock that I’ve used many times to make easy 25% to 50% profits after taking triple-digit profits from the very same stock on my initial position. The way this technique works is that when I think that the stock starts looking toppy and [...]

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

April 1, 2007- Several big stories hit the financial news this past week but the real significance of these stories were not discussed anywhere.

To err on the Subject of Chinese Tariffs May Expedite a Shakespearean tragedy.

Tuesday, March 13th, 2007

March 13, 2007- Sometimes the U.S. Congress is foolish. In order to cover up the inadequacies of the federal reserve and poor fiscal policy, Congress wants to impose tariffs on Chinese goods, and in doing so, supposedly make U.S. goods more competitive against Chinese goods.
