COMMENTARY - July 14, 2020 Though you’d hardly know it from the ongoing melt-up in all manner of risk assets as we’ve moved well into summer, the situation with what I (and others) have called the “New Cold War” between the U.S. and China has demonstrably worsened. The much-hyped…
As we begin the 2nd half of perhaps THE craziest year any of us have ever lived through (and it's not done yet!) I wanted to dispense some recent added knowledge to you all on a host of subjects: -- What does the stock market face in the second half?…
BY THE WAY ... NOT A MEMBER??Visit me RIGHT HERE to make sure you have ALL my Members-only recommendations! The best one-liner I heard Monday (actually, in a while) came from an analyst being interviewed on CNBC. As I was in my car and only listening to the network, I didn't see who this was; so regrettably…
My colleague Tom Bodrovics at Palisade Radio and I spent the better part of an hour on Memorial Day on one of THE most important subjects that investors generally--and gold investors especially--need to get their heads around. I have long called it "The Flation Debate." And you can listen by…
(From the 2nd regular issue for May, 2020) More than once in its 20+ - year life, the euro has gone through and survived an existential crisis. The latest one is now at hand: and not because one or more of the weaker members of this ill-conceived "union" are in…

The GOLD ISSUE: This is NOT Your Father’s Gold Market! — (Summer, 2020 Issue, JUST Updated and Expanded!)
0 Even with the price of gold recently reaching its highest levels since just after the all-time high of $1,920/ounce was logged in September, 2011, we have already had a few lessons teaching us that "This is NOT Your Father's Gold Market!" This move which began in earnest in late 2018…

(From the July 29, 2019 issue) Markets seem both oblivious to and unprepared for a MAJOR change that's looming in the world: the end of "Globalization" as we have known it for three-quarters of a century. As I write in the cover story of this new issue, though Donald Trump…
(From the April 15, 2019 Issue) -- I put "Debate" in quotes above since what you are hearing on this suddenly-HOT issue is, for the most part, just another scripted and canned one delivered to us by the Establishment and its two kept political parties. As I explain, there could…
As of the latter part of the month now (June, 2020) Omineca is my top performer of the year. So far it is now up SIX-fold for the year (as of the close Friday, June 19.) At the link below you can download this potentially "once-in-a-generation" kind of story and…
As most of you already know, I have been ambivalent for a while when it comes to most any "commodities" save for gold and uranium. The battery metal lithium has a GREAT future; yet the still-tenuous nature of the global economy, near-term downside risks due to the Coronavirus and more…

I'm privileged in this discussion here to visit with Ambassador Thomas Graham, Jr. who, over the better part of four decades beginning during the Nixon Administration, was a Senior U.S. diplomat involved in every single agreement concerning nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament issues. In great part due to this career he…
