How to Make Money During the Greatest Economic Battle of a Lifetime
2012-01-23 17:16:00
Never before in our lifetime have we seen a fiercer fight between two opposing forces — global recession and mad money printing! The opposing forces are massive: On one side, we have the largest economy in the world — the European Union — collapsing before our eyes. And … On the other side, we have one of the most powerful central banks in the world — the European Central Bank — going berserk with a new wave of money printing, helping to push global stock prices higher. Hard to believe things have gotten THAT extreme? Then consider the facts: Just last week, the World Bank declared that Europe has entered a recession; capital flows to . . . → Read More: How to Make Money During the Greatest Economic Battle of a Lifetime

Can the U.S. Economic Recovery Overcome Europe?s Drag?
2012-01-10 19:15:00
Positive reports are coming from all the crucial segments of the economy In an October column I wrote, “For the first time this year the trend of U.S. economic reports is potentially bottoming and turning positive. And after being bearish in the spring and summer, I like what I see in the technical charts of many markets. If only we could ignore Europe.” That pretty much still defines the situation as we enter the New Year. Our indicators did trigger a buy signal in mid-October, and the Dow is up 16.5% from its early October low. The U.S. economic recovery did indeed get underway, and has been gaining momentum impressively. More importantly, the positive reports are . . . → Read More: Can the U.S. Economic Recovery Overcome Europe’s Drag?

Abroad: There is a sense among some economists that 2012 is going to live up to its Mayan reputation. Europe is set to collapse. China’s deterioration will turn critical. Indian inflation will rise, and its exports will slow, since so many of them go to China and Europe, in the first place. But what if ...

The world has turned upside down.

At first glance, this could seem to reflect what advocates of a new international economic order had in mind. ...

Economic Hitmen~~~~ State & City Style In The USA~~~A Christmas Message
2011-12-30 02:28:00
It used to be that Economic Hitmen, as told in the John Perkins book of the same name, Confessions of an Economic Hitman, picked on under developed 3rd world countries.  But it sounds to me like Jamie Dimon is now picking on individual cities in the USA to target as 3rd world- like countries. Birmingham Alabama is the latest city to take a hit from the Economic Hitmen.  Jamie Dimon and Chase Bank set Birmingham like a bunch of bowling pins just to watch Dimon and Chase knock 'em all down.Essentially, Jamie Dimon handed Birmingham, Alabama a Chase credit card and then bribed its local officials to run up a gigantic balance, leaving future residents and those residents’ children with the bill. As a result, the citizens of Jefferson County will now be making payments to Chase until the end of time. Do you think Jamie Dimon would have done that deal if he lived in Jefferson County Alabama? Put it this way: If he was trying to support two kids on $30,000 a year, and lived in...

Economic Downturns. Bad for Foreigners. In China And Always.
2011-12-27 12:38:00
I am just returning from a delightful family vacation in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where we got around mostly by taxi. Both my kids speak Spanish fairly well and I am totally willing to fake it. One of the things I quickly learned from our conversations with the taxi drivers is that there is a big split between the Puerto Ricans and the Dominicans. We heard of this during our first day there, in our second cab ride. Our first cab ride had been from our hotel, with a very polite, very well spoken Dominican cab driver. Our second cab ride was from San Juan's old town, and this driver was a very young Puerto Rican, who made it a point to spend maybe the first five minutes of the ride lecturing us on the differences between Puerto Rican and Dominican cabbies. As we careened wildly through San Juan's streets, with the car radio blasting out Spanish hip-hop, he told us of how the Dominicans are all crazy drivers and how it is not even safe to get in their cabs. He then proceeded to make su...

Yesterday, the president told us that conservative economic policies have never worked. Someone should ask him the same questions about the Keynesian theories that drive his big-spending policies.

Gold Stocks Should Win Regardless of Economic Turmoil: Chen Lin
2011-12-02 23:00:00
The Gold Report: When you last spoke with The Gold Report in August, the gold:silver ratio was about 40:1. Today it’s about 53:1. In August, you were looking for a lower gold:silver ratio that you thought would probably be more reasonable under the circumstances. Yet it seems to have gone the other direction. What do you think has happened here? Was silver drastically overpriced or not able to keep up with the gold? Chen Lin: In the last interview, I was pretty evenly bidding between gold and silver. I don’t have a particular preference. At that time, there were some major funds buying silver. Historically it has been lower?as low as 10:1 a very long time ago.

Clive Maund: Gold to Profit from Economic Uncertainty

The Gold Report: Clive, on clivemaund.com you said “for fundamental and technical reasons the U.S stock markets look set to plunge soon.” So, it seems we’re headed for either deflation or hyperinflation. The course seems set for hyperinflation, but what’s your best guess as to what’s going to happen? Clive Maund: The key point to grasp is that the world needs a “reset” and sooner or later it is going to get it. By that I mean that all the dross of debt and derivatives that have accumulated over many years and are now dragging the world economy into the mire are going to have to be cleared away before the world can move forward again.

John Kaiser: Gold as a Positive Economic Indicator

The Gold Report: Gold prices reached historic highs during the last quarter. However, in a recent Kaiser Bottom-Fish newsletter, you showed the Toronto Stock Exchange Venture (TSX.V) listings since February have had dramatically more down than up days. Is this a correction or a long-term trend? John Kaiser: What we have seen is a negative response by ordinary investors to a deteriorating economic outlook for the United States and the world, which we might call a correction of expectations. But what worries me about a long-term trend is the growing prevalence of volatility-based profit harvesting, high-frequency and algorithmic trading paired with the elimination of the downtick rule for short selling, which allows traders to push markets down or up . . . → Read More: John Kaiser: Gold as a Positive Economic Indicator

The Energy Report: There’s been damage done to potash stocks over the past six months. Why? Richard Kelertas: Macro issues have hurt all commodities. When the world is worried about its next breath, all these stocks get hit very hard. We’ve had the Euro crisis and then the Greek debt crisis since these stocks peaked in summer. Also, I think there were expectations that North America and Europe would emerge from the last serious recession with half-decent growth going forward, and that recovery would be moderate, measured and continual from 2010 all the way up to 2013?2014. That’s now been interrupted by macro events, and the odds that they will be quickly resolved is almost nil. We are going . . . → Read More: Richard Kelertas: Economic Turmoil Creates Potash Values

Economic Insights from a Lord of Finance
2011-11-04 17:28:00
By David Galland, The Casey Report Of all the social memes related to the economic and investment landscape, none is more dominant than that there is a small cadre of powerful Wall Street money men who, working behind the scenes, effectively control investment markets, the global economy and the politicians that play such a big role in that economy. Whether you call them fat cats, greedy bankers, soulless manipulators or unindicted co-conspirators, the one sure thing, in the minds of most, is that they wield the power behind all thrones and that it is their whispered agreements, invariably made in darkened rooms full of cigar smoke, that decide the economic fates of us all.

Internet Defines Economic Growth In India
2011-07-05 07:15:00
Recently a study by the Indian Council for Research on International Economic relations (Icrier) placed a direct relationship between broadband, Internet growth and gross domestic product (GDP). Study conducted by Mckinsey, points out that the Internet has delivered “significant economic growth, created swathes of jobs and created wealth“. In India, McKinsey says, the Internet contributed 5% to GDP growth in the past five years, higher than the average 3% for Bric (Brazil, Russia, India and China) economies but much lower than the US (15%). Incidentally, a ComScore study has outlined the state of internet in India, thus specifying that the shared access connection in India is as large as the Internet population accessing from home and work. Talking about the contribution of Internet towards economic growth of a country a prime example would be the case of India making more profits from Internet than China.

Rick Perry and Texas' Real Economic Advantage
2011-06-26 15:30:00
As Governor Rick Perry positions for his big run, it's worth examining what accomplishments he can and can't take credit for.  The importance of the exercise stretches beyond his campaign.  You can expect that other states might try to duplicate Texas' relative success in weathering the economic crisis.  It's important that they replicate what works rather than merely believing the propaganda. First, how well has Texas done?  Meh. Perry has touted Texas's fabulous success in job creation, but it's not entirely clear what he's talking about.  The state has created a lot of new jobs and the unemployment rate is better than average - it ranks 24th - with unemployment at a stubborn 8%.  It is true that Texas' population...

EPA's Promise of Economic Growth a Sham
2011-06-15 18:25:00
-By Warner Todd Huston Lisa Jackson, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is headed to The Hill to testify about the Obama Administration's newest proposed environmental regulations. Obama's EPA is claiming that the new rules will bring all sorts of economic growth, but a new report by the National Taxpayers Union puts the administration's claims in question and shows that the EPA's "benefits" have no basis in reality. The new report features economist David Montgomery who reveals the very large net regulatory benefits touted by EPA rely on apples to orange comparisons, where the vast majority of the benefits have none of the financial reality that the costs do.
