It is rare that investors are given a road map. It is rarer still that the vast majority of those who get it are unable to understand the clear signs and directions it contains. When this happens the few who can actually read the map find themselves in an enviable position. Such is currently the case with gold and gold-related investments. ... MORE

Walter E Williams: You Don't Have To Stay Poor
Come early, stay late. No one can blame you if you start out in life poor, because how you start is not your fault. If you stay poor, you're to blame because it is your fault. Nowhere has this been made clearer than in Dennis Kimbro's new book, "The Wealth Choice: Success Secrets of Black Millionaires." Kimbro, a business professor at Clark ... MORE

Peter Schiff: Record Physical Gold Sales
Best hedge against inflation. Peter Schiff appeared on Fox Business this morning to talk about the market’s perception of gold, the extraordinary surge in gold sales this month, and hidden inflation in the US and Japan. “Gold has been up for 12 consecutive years. It’s entitled to a correction. It’s incredible how the media has jumped all over ... MORE
Paul Craig Roberts: The Assault On Gold
The Federal Reserve's last stand? For Americans, financial and economic Armageddon might be close at
hand. The evidence for this conclusion is the concerted effort by the
Federal Reserve and its dependent financial institutions to scare people
away from gold and silver by driving down their prices. When gold prices hit $1,917.50 an ... MORE
Ira Stoll: Obama's Crony Capitalism
Granting favor to the few. On the Friday before Christmas, President Obama announced that
he was appointing Mohamed A. El-Erian, the CEO of Pacific
Investment Management Company, as the chairman of his Global
Development Council. The announcement didn’t get much attention, but it should. It
exemplifies what’s wrong with Obama’s approach to ... MORE
Ralph R. Reiland: The Cliffs Of 1984
“Slavery Is Freedom” and “Tax Hikes Are Tax Relief.” So we didn’t go over the fiscal cliff and instead got a deal that delivers no cuts in government spending, raises taxes on “the rich” (the definition of which consistently changes), expands the size and role of government, keeps the red ink flowing at record levels, and provides ...

California's Prop 30 Hits Entrepreneurs Hard
By Ethan Anderson. Nothing terrifies investors or entrepreneurs as much as the concept of expropriation.
When governments decide to expropriate legally obtained assets,
entrepreneurs who worked tirelessly to build businesses and investors
who risked scarce capital end up with little to nothing for their
troubles. In fact, developing countries often ... MORE
John Stossel: Legalize Insider Trading
Think about it. Insider trading leads the news again, casting a cloud over Steven Cohen's SAC Capital Advisors $14 billion hedge fund. The SEC charged Mathew Martoma, who used to manage a SAC Capital division, with using inside information about tests on an Alzheimer's drug to trade stock of the company working on it. The media love this stuff. ... MORE
Carol Roth: Insider Trading Should Be Legalized
Information makes the market efficient. Former SAC Capital trader Mathew Martoma’s insider trading investigation is
just one of a bevy of high-profile insider trading cases that have come
to light in the past few years and I think spending time and effort on
these cases is a farce. Should
the allegations prove to be true, I am not ... MORE

Dr. Milton R. Wolf: ObamaCare Taxes Risk 800,000 Jobs
More government means more unemployment. America’s race toward the so-called “fiscal cliff” of automatic, massive tax increases is only part of the problem. This Thelma has her Louise — the Obamacare taxes — and hand-in-hand, these two terrors are racing toward Jan. 1. The only thing worse than President Obama’s broken Obamacare ... MORE
Greg Pollowitz: Al Gore No Longer Investing In Green Tech
One loser identifies another. Via The Street. Why does Al Gore hate America’s green-tech industry and love China and Bain Capital? When Al Gore talks, people listen. Just ask the folks who hand out Academy Awards and Nobel Peace Prizes. Al Gore also talks to investors. Since 2007, the former Vice President in Bill Clinton’s administration has been ... MORE
