Volatility Does Not Equal Risk

Unfortunately, virtually the entire realm of business “journalism” regularly sabotages any discussion of risk by mixing-in issues of volatility… yet over the long term, volatility is nearly irrelevant. Implications for the practical investor … and anyone trying to save any wealth whatsoever.

The New Bankster ‘Weapon’ Against Gold/Silver

Punditry Aside, Market Crash Is Continued Liquidity Panic

this isn’t a “normal” trading market; it isn’t responding to the “big news” events in a common-sense way (much beloved by omnipresent j-school financial writers), if at all. It is only responding to what is happening with liquidity. And that is clearly draining out. Will we get the same Fed reaction (QE) we got in 2008? Most likely.

Economic Rape of Europe Nearly Complete, Part I

The banksters had already perfected their terrorist weapons: interest-rate swaps and credit default swaps. Now they needed to determine if they actually “worked” – i.e. if their scam-victims were gullible enough to be fooled by bankster double-talk, and if our legal systems would “tolerate” this massive, systemic fraud.

The False-Flag Attacks on ‘Speculators’

by Aaron Krowne Founder, ML-Implode.com Many have generated ample prose lately in the latest rumble in the deflationist/inflationist street brawl (a debate still largely ignored by the mainstream media, which continues to broadcast little besides the “Carry On, All Is Fine” message).   So I won’t add any more to that prose.  But I did want […]
