By: Keith Weiner, Monetary MetalsFor years, people blamed the global financial crisis on greed. Doesn't this make you want to scream out, "what, were people not greedy in 2007 or 1997??" Greed utterly fails to explain the phenomenon. It merely serves to reinforce a previously-held belief. Far be it from us to challenge previously-held beliefs (OK, OK, we may engage in some sacred-ox-goring from...Read More
Shaky ChinaBrexit BreakageHelpless EuropeDC, Back to Dorado, more Florida, and Boca RatonFor a couple of years now, the economic narrative has shown a comparatively strong US against weakness in Europe and some of Asia (NOT China).

Gold's rebound in 2016 was a...Read More
By: Larry LaBordeWe just returned home from a trip to France and my head is still trying to sort everything out. The Yellow Vests were protesting across the country but most of the press concerning them was from Paris. We spent a week in southern France where most of the police were sympathetic to the protestors. Outside Paris the Yellow Vests opened toll booth gates (no tolls today!) and...Read More
It felt like a mountain of supply sitting on stocks last week, growing more ponderous by the day. By Thursday the broad averages were too fatigued to achieve even minor 'Hidden Pivot' rally targets, the still-feisty FAANGs too subdued to help. Of course, just because the market looked punk on a given day does not preclude the possibility that, come the next, traders will conveniently forget what...Read More
If crude oil rises over $10 by month and floats over $72 (brent), then there will be renewed fears of global recession. Right now, I believe most of the global slowdown related news has been discounted in by the markets. The pace of rise of crude oil will determine recession or growth or slowdown. Energy prices ? inflation determination? Interest rate cycle. There are host of other factors which...Read More
Politicians, especially on the left are saying things that they could have never gotten away with 5 years ago. Cursing out your president on live tv was unheard of. In a way Trump has brought this on himself. Having very little ability to filter his speech, he lowered the bar for others. And now that the toothpaste is out of the tube, it will be impossible to put it back in. And this is making it...Read More
