EC Retail Sales Conundrum
Jul 14, 2017Jeremy Parkinson0
Retail sales were thoroughly disappointing in June. Whereas other accounts such as imports or durable goods had at least delivered a split decision between adjusted and unadjusted versions, for retail sales both views of them were ugly. Seasonally-adjusted first, spending last month was down for the second straight time. Worse than that, estimated sales were […]

National Debt Too High, Silver Price Too Low
Jul 14, 2017Jeremy Parkinson0
Silver currently sells around $16, which would be sensible if the U.S. national debt was much less than its current $20 trillion. Given the massive national debt and 100 years of experience, silver prices could easily be double or triple their current prices, and far higher in a panic. WHY? Examine over a century of official […]

Investors Flee To Super-Safe Nasdaq As Rate Hike Odds Fall After CPI Miss
Jul 14, 2017Jeremy Parkinson0
Well, equities are higher to start the session, which shouldn’t surprise you. After all, we got some bad data this morning. Remember what we said just prior to the CPI print?
