EC Same Country, Different Worlds
To my mind, “reflation” has always proceeded under false pretenses. This goes for more than just the latest version, as we witnessed the same incongruity in each of the prior three. The trend is grounded in mere hope more than rational analysis, largely because I think human nature demands it. We are conditioned to believe […]
More Trouble?
I don’t know if maybe you noticed, but this is playing out exactly like I said it probably would. In fact, I’m not sure I’ve ever been quite this right in terms of the direction things seem to be headed. No, stocks haven’t plunged (yet), but what you’re seeing is the reflation narrative dying on […]
Gold Suffers Longest Losing Streak Since Last May – Time To Buy?

Why Americans Pay Triple The World Price For Sugar
Washington is once again massively screwing up the American sugar market. Because American farmers cannot compete with foreign sugar growers, the federal government has maintained an array of sugar import quotas and/or tariffs for most of the last 200 years. The regulatory regime has provided windfalls for generations of politicians and jobs for legions of […]
Crude Oil Falls 5 Pct. First Sign Of Turmoil In Markets?
Crude oil fell more than 5 percent today. It closed the trading session right above $50 per barrel. InvestingHaven’s crude oil forecast for 2017 was rather neutral, certainly not very bullish nor very bearish. “Our expectation is that crude oil prices in 2017 will not move up to area 1 (above $90) and will not collapse into area […]
What Drives The Price Of Gold?
In my more than 35 years of investing in hard assets, precious metals and mining, I’ve learned to manage my expectations of gold’s short-term price action. Sure, there have been surprises along the way, but generally, the yellow metal has behaved relatively predictably to two macro drivers, the Fear Trade and Love Trade. Last year, […]
Stocks And Precious Metals Charts – Non-Farm Payrolls Tomorrow – Don’t Fear The Reaper
As you may have noted from the side links last night the Sprott Funds have made an unsolicited takeover bid for the Central Funds of Canada. They are obviously eyeing that gold and silver bullion priced at a good discount to net asset value. I have included the fifteen minute chart for trading in CEF […]
Market Talk- March 9th, 2017
Markets and sentiment did not do too well in Asia today after the decline in the oil price yesterday. Energy stocks were hit as were commodity relations as we saw mixed data out from China and weaker JPY. China released better than expected Producer Price Index but was countered by slower than expected Consumer Prices. […]
Chipotle Mexican Grill To Close Its ShopHouse Asian Kitchen Chain
Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE:CMG) is best known for its burrito chains, but the company has taken a swing at some other concepts over the past several years as well. One of those concepts, the ShopHouse Asian Kitchen chain, which boasts 15 store locations, will shut down effective March 17th. Written by StockNews.com Nation’s Restaurant […]
Oil Falls Over 5%
The main reason why the stock market fell Wednesday was because of a 5.38% decline in WTI oil. My prediction for oil prices to fall is because of a high amount levered long trades and high inventory levels finally began to come true. My thesis has been that oil prices falling to the high $30s […]
