News of Interest for August 23rd...

Well, the markets seem relatively quiet now that the Fed has been spoon feeding them. With most of the ARM resets before us, do you think it's not beyond the realm of reason to expect a flood of liquidity ahead of us?

You bet your bottom dollar.

Buying Opportunity of a Lifetime...

Time to Buy Gold Stocks

A lot of talk about the Yen Carry Trade today...

I found this interesting write up from March of this year:

I've always believed that if the BoJ were to bring interest rates back up to normal, growth would continue at its pace as well as a sharp increase in inflation, what with something like $1 trillion in the carry potential repatriating. That should solve a lot of the world's liquidity problems as well. That would mean further interest rates would not necessarily be needed from the Bank of England, Reserve Bank of Australia, Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Bank of Canada, European Central Bank and of course our own Federal Reserve. All that money in our system slowly moving back to Japan would do the dirty work for the world's central bankers.

So, is this a central bank orchestrated event? That would make sense as this would free up some money (in addition to another $17 billion being pumped into American banks).

News of Interest for August 14th...

The Fed decided not to pump liquidity into the markets today. What happened? At present, the Dow sank over 100 points. A very slippery slope, indeed.

My 401(K) has a cash position that seemingly looks like a good place to park money while the US Stock market practices kamikaze moves. What's wrong with that? Well, when you dig deeper, much of the "CASH" are mortgage-backed securities. It really makes you wonder what all will be devastated when this thing finally hits the last barricade and leaps over the cliff.... If you have a cash position in your 401 (K), you might be better served just putting your money in the international fund (especially if your company does not offer inflation protection).

News of Interest for August 13th...

Credit Problems are Too Big for the Feds to Fix - but they'll try with newly printed bills...today, they added another $2B into the markets and the Dow still finished down slightly.

News of Interest for August 9th...

Sorry I'm posting this news so late...Very busy day for me!

Wow, the Dow really took a tumble today and I wouldn't be surprised if there are more days like this to follow. HIGH volatility right now. It's better to hold cash until you can recognize a bottom and then, by all means, dive into stocks that will do good under an inflationary scenario- because the Fed is juicing the monetary supply. They doubled output this week (and several other countries did also, which proves when this thing gets out of hand, commodities will be a better bet than foreign fiat currencies)...

I also thought this was pretty cool: WWE Wrestler Kane Supports Ron Paul (Sooo, he's actually a GOOD GUY)... When I was a promoter, I mostly met 80's wrestling stars, not the current ones (although I did meet the Rock- nice guy)... but Kane seems pretty sharp, all of a sudden.
