Bank Of The Ozarks Leads Regional Banks Down
The S&P Regional Banks have gotten battered once again today, down 3.01%. But that is purely a continuation of what has been a rough Fall. The index has fallen 16.58% from its high back in early June and has fallen 7.05% since the start of October. The stocks in the index are down an average […]

How The Midterm Elections Might Affect Gold And Silver
The outcome of the November 6th voting will be a big deal for investors, including gold and silver bugs. The metals, perhaps more than most other asset classes, are sensitive to geopolitics.
