In my recent articles I have stressed the urgency of getting out of bubble assets like stocks and bonds and to own physical metals. I see the next phase in markets starting very soon, whether that is in a few days or a few weeks. Next phase means stock market crash and precious metals surge.

With the economy as mismanaged as it is today, the government does all the work for us by unlimited money printing and credit expansion. And that work will now accelerate. So all we need to do is to ride the government wave of destruction. Gold will continue to reveal how badly governments are do...

The autumn of 2019 will see a major shift in sentiment as markets turn from a secular bull to a secular bear. We are likely to see major crashes in many global stock markets. Virtually no one is prepared for this so there will be both panic and despair.

As panic in markets start and investors quickly turn from the stock market euphoria of the past to total fear, some investors will rush to buy wealth preservation assets. Initially there will be some willing sellers and gold will rise to multiples of the current price. But as the paper gold marke...

Confidence and euphoria will turn to fear and despair. Once the market realises that this time central banks have no weapons left in their armoury and that money printing or lower rates have no effect, there will be real panic.

We know with absolute certainty that governments will continue to oblige by destroying the economy, spending money they haven’t got, increasing deficits and debts and totally debasing currencies until they are worthless. For those reasons we are holding gold and sleeping well at night.

Very important changes will soon take place in markets with the 2007-9 crisis returning with a vengeance. The final phase up in US stocks could last a few weeks and most likely not more than 2 months. Thereafter a secular bear market will start that will be devastating for the world economy, the...

The catalyst for the coming cataclysm in the world economy can come from anywhere, like Deutsche Bank, US junk bonds or Japan. Whatever the catalyst is, it will lead to panic in markets with confidence evaporating and fear setting in. Now is the time to prepare for this. It will soon be too late....

At the beginning of last week, I was challenged with a wager on the gold price. The individual, who called me a “gold pumper”, wanted to bet $1 million on the gold price going below $1,000 before it reached the Maginot Line at $1,350.

The breakout in gold and silver that we have been patiently waiting for is now starting. The long term up move in the precious metals, which have been pausing since 2011, is now resuming. We can with confidence expect all the short term resistance levels to be broken. The first obstacle was the G...

Even with this consistent manipulation, gold still reveals the deceit and the mismanagement of the economy. No UK prime minister has told the British people, that their money has lost most of its value in real terms in this century.

The massive explosion of wealth in the world could be a sign of general prosperity but that is certainly very far from the truth. The printed money and credit expansion has only benefited a very small minority. The gap between the rich and the poor is getting ever wider but it will soon shrink dr...

My long standing target for gold of $10,000 in today’s money and much, much higher in inflationary terms, is now more probable than ever.

There are a number of critical factors that will soon lead to the crossing of the Gold Maginot Line at $1,350.

There has been a lot of publicity about central banks having bought substantial amounts of gold in 2018, in total 651 tonnes which is the highest in 50 years. In relation to this gold story about central banks, it is not that they bought gold which is the real news. The important point is who bou...

Will the average stock portfolio gain 1,900% to make up for the coming 95% fall? This is the unenviable task that investors will be facing in years to come.

Gold’s next move up is not far away. There is still a short time when gold and silver can be bought at reasonable prices. But we are already experiencing supply problems in silver. So there is not much time left to acquire proper wealth protection in physical precious metals.

One of the Fed’s three main objectives is to maintain stable prices. But they have never achieved that at least not since 1971. Again, the Fed did a volte face because they have a total inability to read the economy. The clueless Fed overslept and realised a few years too late that the US economy...

The astonishing Fed again proved the consistency of its inconsistency. Since its creation in 1913, and especially after WWII, the Fed has always been behind the curve. It is hard to believe that this is just incompetence. The recent change of policy hardly seems to be part of a plan but rather a...

It is virtually impossible to prepare for a potential extended downfall but what we can do is to prepare for the short term and protect our investment assets.
