Please find below my interview with Max Keiser and our discussion regarding the Greek crisis and continued banker price suppression and manipulation schemes executed against gold and silver to prop up the US dollar and prevent a US dollar collapse. Max raises the issue of the European Parliament’s move to accept gold from EU nations [...]

Let’s parlay the publicity given to the recent University of Texas endowment fund’s decision to convert all of their paper gold to physical gold into a campaign to convince large endowments/foundations all over the country to follow in their very wise footsteps. According to boston.com, university endowment funds lost a lot of their value during [...]

I have stated this for many years now and I’ll continue to stand by this statement: Technical and fundamental analysis are of limited utility in predicting short-term trends in manipulated markets when analyzed in a vacuum absent of the context of government and bank manipulation. This not only applies to US stock markets but also [...]

In a recent US study called “Academically Adrift: Limited Learning on College Campuses”, researchers studied more than 2,300 students that attended 29 different US universities. Here is what they concluded: (1) 45% of the students showed no gains in learning the first two years of college, and (2) 36% gained little learning even after four [...]

Recent news this week again proves that bankers are among the largest charlatans in the universe. First Jim Rickards reported that a Swiss bank refused to deliver roughly $40 million of gold bullion to a wealthy client for 30 days and only finally physically delivered his gold when the client brought in his lawyers and [...]

This is the third and final part of my three part educational series called “The Astounding Failure of the US Educational System”. Far too many people equate the pursuit of advanced educational degrees with intelligence and an increased likelihood of success. I know this is conventional thinking, but I highly disagree with this theorem. If [...]

“What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life. There’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there, like a splinter in you mind, driving you mad” – Morpheus By the time you finish reading this article, you may discover that you [...]

Today, there is not a single government in the world that has provided an adequate or sustainable solution to our global monetary crisis. The most prominent criticism from Keynesian apologists regarding our monetary crisis is that there is no better system than the one we are using and that supporters of Austrian economics always complain [...]

In light of the US Central Bank’s (I refuse to use their deceitful self-anointed Federal Reserve moniker) most recent grandstanding policy decision that has been referred to as QE light that precedes the inevitable QE2 launch sometime in the not so distant future, I present an open challenge to Paul Krugman and all like minded [...]

Below is a 3-part video series in which I discuss how bankers have used the concept of ideological subversion to brainwash hundreds of millions of retail investors into accepting harmful propaganda that allows them to build their bottom line at the expense of the investors while simultaneously convincing investors to ignore alternate behavior that would [...]

Despite the fact that nearly all of the macroeconomic trends I have predicted since 2006 on my blog, the Underground Investor, have come true, the percent of people that disagree with my predictions for 2010 and 2011 still outnumber those that agree by a factor of ten to one. There is a rational explanation why [...]

Today, our financial system is so broken that casinos have much more integrity in their business dealings than do our banks. Casinos Actually Have More Cash on Hand The largest casinos in Vegas and Macau have much more cash on hand on a daily basis than most branches of the largest banks in the world. [...]

In his first State of the Union speech in 2010, President Barack Obama carefully chose his words in calling for a new jobs bill to stimulate real organic economic growth.
