Bill Holter – The Biggest Black Swan of them all …False Beliefs!
Global markets are changing drastically and showing volatilities like we saw back in late 2008. I am not talking about stock markets, it is the debt and currency markets that are schizophrenic. Oddly, even after all of the various Western “QE’s”, liquidity suddenly looks like it is drying up. A great article as to why even the depth in the U.S. Treasury market has disappeared can be read here http://www.zerohedge.com/
Something has clearly BROKEN!
The next false belief is about debt itself. I had the privilege the other day to personally listen to Greg Hunter go on a tirade about this. He said “the biggest lie in the world is that debt is an asset and debt is money”. He went on to say “NO IT’S NOT! Debt is ALWAYS A LIABILITY!” This is absolutely true, simple to understand, and 180 degrees counter to what the world believes …for now. Let me explain this a little because it is “core to everything” (pun intended as you will see).
They have never lasted I definitely Wayne. Kind of important to remember that!
BIGGEST False beliefs as in INCORRECT Beliefs has been all the Doom and Gloom pumping from the goldbug experts these past 4 years, 4 years!!
The BIGGEST financial meltdown the world has ever seen in 2008-09 when the US banking system came within hours of shutting down had gold falling 30%…FALLING….as the liquidity ran to the safe haven of the US$ not gold.
Gold is ONLY 4% above its low of $1130 not testing $1300 , REALITY!
JJ, don’t kid yourself. The false believe is definitely in the stock and bond markets. Compared to number of those investors, gold market is negligible regardless what goldbugs think. Goldbus are only < 0.001% of the investors. What they think is irrelavant to the market. When you analyse thing, try be objective not subjective. My advice.
lawrence…thank you!!
How about FACTS Lawrence, that work for you?
False belief in the US equity markets is based on the misconception the likes or yourself and Holter follow, those that understand capital flows have made a killing long US equities these past 4 years off golds highs and 6 years off 2009 lows and while Doom and Gloom is pumped!
Goldbugs are .001% what they think is irrelevant, not sh!t as they are still long and wrong, thank you for pointing that out!
Objective, subjective, no thanks how about cold hard facts, gold is $1173 and the HUI 159 PRICE REALITY is everything
I am long equity so what you said does not apply to me. I am even long Chinese market. Don’t assume things. You are very emotional. It is worst characteristics a investor should have.
OMG yup I’m so emotional I’ve made a living trading for 40 years, don’t assume things=right back at you!
I am not assuming. You have shown your your emotion on every of your posts.
Lawrence…ojj won’t like this…you have called it correctly and figured him out…
Just like the article above, doom and gloom emotion its all the gold experts have, fear!
Enjoy!
I thought Marty is a gold expert too?
You thought wrong, how emotional of you, he is a global capital flows expert NOT based on his opinion but daily global data which correctly suggested selling gold and buying the Dow in 2011, thanks for pointing out someone who actually got the past 4 year trend correct!
Thinking Martin as gold expert is emotional. Hope you are not joking. I think he has made good calls in general in the last few years.
I respect Martin a lot. I keep his targets in mind. I just take a slightly different route since I canot aford to trade, no time and lose too much money if I quit working.
Only some of the gold “experts” original!
Gotta remember the gold market is small and very specialized. Not to again repeat myself , but that is why we buy gold for entirely different reasons than those involved in the paper markets. We look at the total spectrum!
Cannot say that the gold market is not negligible in comparison.
Real GDP peaked around 1999 and the gloom and doomers who bought gold and forgot about are STILL smoking the delusional shortsighted paperbugs.
The secular trends have not changed and the needed “adjustments” will continue to happen over time, not in a single event.
BTW, gold finished 2008 UP almost 6%. So the dollar’s strength was fleeting and seen as a selling opportunity.
I started buying gold in 1999 and continued into 2000 and 2001. The vast majority of what I bought I paid under $300 for. How am I worse off? You think $1180 gold is bad for investors, I think it’s wonderful for me. I don’t want to be standing under the Dow and $$ when they crash.
And if MA is calling for $5000 gold, doesn’t that make him sort of a gold bug? I have never even whispered $5000. I’m thrilled at $1180.
That is true Robert. You are thrilled with the current price of gold as I am with the current price of silver.
Not helping the stocks though, my friend!
If your comment was meant for me, I think you’ve misread my comment. I agree with you.
An error of timing, for sure, regarding the doom and gloom, and when to be in what asset class.
But if you think the doom and gloom is baseless, then maybe you could point out what part of Bill Holter’s reasoning is wrong.
Great comment by Lawrence. You seem a bit obsessed with the ‘goldbugs’, however it is you define them.
I enjoy your trading commentaries.
How many have been destroyed these past 5 years listening to the goldbug experts GH, well?
You people are like zombies, the walking dead, buy,buy,buy, its never sell, sell sell which has been correct for years, not a week a month but 4 years!!
4 years is an error in timing, ROTFLMFAO
A lot more people get destroyed by paperbug experts at every market top; are you as critical of those zombies?
Since real GDP peaked, gold is STILL up more than 4x while the Dow hasn’t even doubled.
Hey, there’s a forest lurking somewhere in them thar trees!
“There is nothing wrong with LEHMAN! I repeat…THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH LEHMAN STOCK!”
🙂
And that Mark Alan is the reason everything should be traded off the chart not anyones Doom and Gloom BS or to Da Moon!
Of course, I agree about the gold bugs Matthew.
Who on our guest list would you define as an irrational gold bug?
So I guess your definition of ‘goldbug’ is ‘gold permabull’? I’d agree with you on that.
Yes, plenty of inexperienced people have been terribly damaged by fear-mongering gold-pushers who never speak about how to insure against the disaster that seems inevitable, without over-exposing oneself to risk.
You go to another extreme, by lumping in anyone who recognizes the extreme instability of our financial system, and seeks to protect themselves, however ineptly, with ‘zombies’. You’d do better to give these people some guidance, bearing in mind that trading is a losing game for most people, especially novices.
Matthew’s got it right–the real zombies are those who actually believe all the lies being pumped out of DC and Wall Street.
Do you really not believe that there is a trainwreck coming in our economy that will harm vast numbers of people? If not, you might counter some of the arguments made by people like Holter.
FANTASTIC post GS………..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have just singled out my whole point! Nobody with half a brain would dispute what is going on around the world with so many issues be it derivatives, leveraged debt the list is very long BUT it doesn’t mean a collapse, its doesn’t mean the Dow crashes, it doesn’t mean gold to da moon or WW3 or hyperinflation, US$ to dust
DIAL down the fear big time and trade what is going on today in reality not hype and doom and gloom BS as its kept far too many investors in sectors that are going down making lower lows and lower highs = gold and out of fantastic gains in equity markets
JJ can’t guide most people because most people don’t have any interest in trading.
Bottom line: Those who accumulate gold over long periods end up better off. Those who hoard dollars over long periods of time end up worse off.
JJ still hasn’t figured out that the dollar is a sorry measure of value in all but the short term.
Oh look Matty has spoken so it must be all true! I just love how you tell everyone here what they are thinking, now that’s a BIG EGO if I’ve ever seen one.
just like all those golds bugs who bought at $800 in 1980 it only took 27 years!!!! for your theory to prove correct
Its what all you gold nuts hang onto EVENTUALLY you’ll be right, yippeeee!!!
Fantastic approach…..can’t wait to see what Matty tells me I’m thinking now, so exciting
Well, we agree a fair bit. But I would say that it very well *could* mean a dow crash or hyperinflation or WWIII. So people should take out insurance. That’s precious metals, among a bunch of other things.
But that doesn’t mean one should hunker in a bunker.
Unfortunately, the financialization of the economy seems to mean that those who can’t trade, at least the longer-term cycles (cyclical bulls and bears within secular cycles), are likely to lose. Those who’ve held the S&P 500 since 2000 haven’t really gotten anywhere, and likely won’t for a while yet.
JJ, your reading comprehension matches your writing. I did not “tell everyone here what they are thinking.”
Re: $800 gold in 1980
Did you notice the word “accumulate” in my comment? I put it there for a reason. You know savings tend to be accumulated.
Those greedy and clueless enough to buy a major spike are not exactly your typical saver. You buy a spike in ANY market and you are going to lose. That includes a Marty-approved market.
Re: “Its what all you gold nuts hang onto EVENTUALLY you’ll be right, yippeeee!!!
Fantastic approach…..can’t wait to see what Matty tells me I’m thinking now, so exciting”
Your constant nastiness exposes your deficiencies much more thoroughly than your writing ever could.
I can read a chart and I can read! Accumulate, how many bought gold leading up to the $800+ highs sub $400 Matty how about next to none from $700 upwards Lots!! just as they did when gold was $1600+ notice the big spike that’s the retail morons very few were buying in 2000 so the bulk always buys the last momentum swing just as they sell and create the bottoms.
Anyone who doesn’t agree with your thoughts you attack because your never ever wrong. So I’m so useless stop following me around like a lost little girl…pisss off and keep promoting your Hero’s who have been wrong for so long its criminal
ALL bull markets end with MOST money coming in at the top! What’s wrong with you?
You’re the one that can’t tolerate anyone that doesn’t think as you do, JerkJerk.
I believe that Bob was Refering to Mr Armstrong.
Would all you guys please take a deep breath. I just read over all your comments and you are much more in agreement than you might realize.
Common you are all way too smart fo4r this bs
ojj:
Aren’t you the fool who claimed the dollar can’t go down. It’s going to the moon. Everyone knows that. the market is never wrong.
You might want to take a gander at the dollar index today. Last time I looked it was down 1.50%. That’s a $80 billion dollar loss to someone in a day. Last Tuesday there was a $116 billion loss in one day. Just how much longer do you think $690 trillion in derivatives, the US bond market and US stock market can handle that kind of volality?
Its Booby time! yippie!!
Bob it must be your age as your afraid of your own shadow, don’t voice your opinion off EMOTION the $ is tanking, the $ is tanking, and oh look gold is what 3 % off its lows so far from 2011, hmmm
Have a 10 year old explain this chart to you, as its just collapsing!! ….1.5% oh my!!..lol
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%24USD&p=D&yr=0&mn=6&dy=0&id=p90595623603&listNum=1&a=411439875
Bobby make sure you invite Cory to your English class, lets be fair now don’t just pick on those that have been correct these past 4-6 years while you’ve been wrong.
Now common man, leave Cory out of this!!
The young man is brilliant.
ojj: Spoke the fool with the broken record one more time. 100% of dollar bulls got taken out a week ago with a 2.20% in one day thrashing. What a shock? Why didn’t someone warn us in January that the dollar was about to crash?
Oops, someone did.
Bob Moronarty you have done nothing special Bob, nothing, its nothing the chart hasn’t done without your pompous attitude, imagine that!
You warned the world of a US$ collapse in Jan as the $ went from 94 to 100 great call now you pat yourself on the back as the $ falls back….wow what a panic artist!
The US$ hasn’t even broken the first line of support, oh and don’t think for a second I’m long and wrong the $, the chart suggested a short position from 97 seven days ago as its far more accurate than your calls ….collapse! OMG
Find the neighbors dog he’ll show you how to read this simpleton chart, collapse! is that all you theatrical experts have, lol
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%24USD&p=D&yr=0&mn=6&dy=0&id=p55957473463&listNum=1&a=411439875
ojj:
2.20% in a day for the $$ is tanking for certain. I do hope you were long. How many punters are using any more than 1.5% margin? Oops, I listened to the master trader ojj and he blew it again.
BOB MORIARTY , well haven’t you earned your name B. Moronarty, with all your terrible Dow crash, US$ crash, WW3 calls I’ve never hoped you lost money!
I trade off the chart Bob and you ignorant waste of good air should be very capable of seeing nobody should be long the $ as the chart I showed clearly provides the correct side to be positioned, short!
Well there you go Big Al your buddie B.M. hopes I lost money, complete scum!
Open your eyes everyone this type of self proclaimed expert is the type your following, boy he just showed his true intent, all those not in agreement with him he hopes loses money.
Grow some balls Bob and man up over your outrageous calls instead of attacking those who have been right.
Hey Bob I guess you hope Rick Akerman got killed with a US$ long position too, some friend you are as Rick has a 120 call for the $, as long as they disagree with you then you hope everyone loses money = total scum!!
Good point Original. The question is where would the price have settled a few days after an actual collapse?
Al:
If you were long the dollar, you got wiped out last Tuesday and today. If you were short the dollar you got wiped out Wednesday through Friday. The market cannot take those kinds of move for long. Hedge funds are getting clipped no matter which way they bet and if ojj says he can call any market from day to day, he made it up.
Only a complete moron would be long the US$ as the chart shows. So Bob Moronarty what do you call someone who missed an 180% gain in US equities and a run of 20 cents this last year in the US$ all the while calling for a crash, that’s you buddie, it sure as hell isn’t Expert
http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%24USD&p=D&yr=0&mn=6&dy=0&id=p55957473463&listNum=1&a=411439875
Wiped out from a 2+% correction!? You must be kidding…Maybe yuo should buy some more Bitgold or NOVO…Thank god I dumped NOVO at $1+ WAFJ you are Bobbo.
The trouble with The Fed is all this money printing has gone into the market for speculation and because the debt is so high they can’t raise rates, if they could raise rates high enough it would curb speculation making it less attractive, and increasing liquidity. But the way it is now if they were to raise rates even one point they will run the risk of a market meltdown.
DT, the money also flow to the general economy through government spending (bond purchase) and real estate buying (MBS purchase).
Mr Holter says “Nothing reported now makes any sense at all and the lies have by necessity gotten so big, even little children know them not to be true.”
I agree with “nothing makes sense” what I disagree with is “even little children know them not to be true”
When a lie is told loud enough and often enough people believe it.
Very few people have an inkling much less a clue, check the vids of people trying to buy coffee with an once of gold/silver.
Even amongst “informed” people there is disagreement, those in control should be able to do whatever they want until everything collapses.(think back on this site the argument about voting Ron Paul, what does “informed” mean anyway? lol))
Even then, a collapse could be controlled.
There is only one game in town, blow a bubble and keep it inflated. FED can do this easilly. Just pump money into the market. They can do this virtually forever. There is no limit how much they can print. They can even print secretly. Unless gold, there is no physical market to take their power away. SO I would bet on that the stock market just stay inflated.
Soon, I will again explain just why Kathy and I own gold and silver. It has nothing to do with many of the current arguments..
I do think that all of our political and economicdiscussions are very valuable. I h ave certainly learned a lot from all of you as well as our guests.
Who knows when the market would have crashed and how far if they didn’t continue to print money and do everything to keep it from falling(PPT). Fiat money has always gone to zero and can you pick a worse time in the history of the world economically wise? Any reason we shouldn’t be hitting the wall? Not quite enough debt for you yet? Keep in mind that one morning the world is going to realize that printed money isn’t worth much any more and they will demand gold or a lot more of that fiat. That is when the fed may start selling off their balance sheet and raising rates, do you think their going to give the common people a heads up?
At that time there won’t be any gold to buy. It could happen tomorrow.
Two choices, if you are aggressive, put money in stocks. If you are afraid, hide in gold.
Gold & Silver to da moon – dollars are worthless.
So why does Sprott want my dollars so bad?

Great post…..Irwin……..(except for the “f” )…….funny and informative……
That’s funny Irwin, I gotta laugh.
Why the heck does Sprott want the dollars? Too funny.
Somebody said forget what they say watch what they do.
hmmm, seems hes taking dollars. lol
If anyone wants to send me some, I’ll gladly take them–and convert them into something else asap!
How does that angry little chimp know what Sprott wants? We all have to deal with currencies but that doesn’t mean we keep significant quantities of them.

Yes I think it was very telling that after not having a clue what Libertarian thought is about, that Mike Stathis spends the last 3 minutes ranting why nobody will talk to him, and he broke his arm off patting himself on the back. Mike, maybe if you weren’t such an angry douche then the news agencies would take you more serious. The reason nobody has taken him up on his $100k challenge is exactly because they can’t stand listening to his hatred and self-proclaimed superiority.
I listened to this recently. He does make a good point. But the way he does it??
Anyone who rambles for a half hour to present facts and arguments that could be made in 5 minutes gets a serious dose of DEpreciation from me. I value my time more than that.
Agreed. He does make a few valid points and I’ve been aware of Mike for a while, but his style of trying to get followers by trashing every single person in a commodity sector is petty and he has just bred an audience of haters.
They have become the very thing they hate.
I’ll be falling asleep with “how effing stupid do you have to be?” ricocheting around my empty skull.
And that’s probably a good thing!
funny…………sleep tight……………. 🙂
We shoulda listened to DOC about a month ago he said NAT could hit $11 – it went to $11.20 – high today $13.70 on nice volume.
Way to go DOC!

For all of you BitGold holders…And don’t listen to Bob Moriarty I cant remember when he last got anything right. Howz you $6 purchase working out?!
Better think twice on BitGONE….And the USD is going a lot higher…. I mean your used toilet paper.
http://moneytalks.net/article-and-commentary/todays-best-money-making-ideas/currency/15178-is-this-golds-long-awaited-killer-app.html
In all fairness Bill B.M. has made some great calls regarding tops and bottoms of gold and silver, as the chart below clearly shows Bob called $1130 a low and the chart did as well….its the US$ to dust, WW3, Dow to crash calls that are just very wrong for a very long time….but these guys all hang on EVENTUALLY we will be right and if they ever are you can bet all thir wrongs calls are never mentioned.
Chart called Nov low and Jan high…just saying

Bill, by dollar going higher you have to define whether it is going to buy more things or more Yen. If it buys more Yen, what different does it make. You are just compare different brands of toilet papers.
DOLLAR DOWN BIG TODAY…………1.16
95.21 DOLLAR………..down….1.14….
Irwin, you’re welcome. Another one I mentioned was XON which just broke out again the last 2 days. Also, Chris’ FEYE is another one I’ve mentioned. There should be a short term pullback but the long term chart looks very nice. Also, I believe NAT will go higher over time since the supply of oil will stay strong for a long period of time. There is a sister stock you might want to look at with a nice dividend which has the symbol NAO—-I haven’t purchased it yet but will in the future when I feel it is ready to move up. It’s a nice inverse play for NAT. None of this is investment advice but just some thoughts to consider. By the way, I believe Claude is ripe to break down here for awhile but then should be a good purchase for the future.
Great stuff, Doc – thanks!
My watch list is doing way better than my inv portfolio. Always seems to be the way it goes.

Bill:
You are so right. It’s been so long since I got anything right that maybe I should hang up my computer. The last piece that I wrote that helped a stock move must have been years and years ago.
Oops, it was June 5. Maybe you should look before you open mouth. Would 50% in three days work for you?
http://www.321gold.com/editorials/moriarty/moriarty060515.html
Ojj
Hell.. I made some great calls but I also admit when I’m wrong. Some people have a gift with burying their blowouts. I know a couple guys that get it right with fundamentals…90%
That’s a real a market pro…not some fake….broken clock…
Bill:
Your issue has nothing to do with someone making bad calls. Your issue has to do with knowing how to take a profit. You don’t know how and the greatest caller in the world can’t make money for you unless you learn to buy low and sell high. You want to buy high and sell low and that never seems to work. You and i have had this conversation before and while you like to pretend you are smarter than anyone else here, you blew some great profits by not taking them when you could.
Markets go up and down and you need to learn that and take it to heart. If you won’t take a profit, the only other alternative is to take a loss.
I’m a gold bug for real, not a permabull and I was negative as hell in 2011 and you want someone to manage your account for you to tell you every time to sell. Sorry but you really do have to take some responsibility for yourself.
I said in Jan that the dollar was about to have a blowoff top and it has. Now you can count all the folks totally convinced the dollar is in a permanent bull market. It may not be true. There are way too many people on one side of the boat.
Bob your issue is your WERE GOING TO BLOW SKY HIGH BS… You should talk to some of the folk I know….Fricken fat headed clown….Go buy some more NOVO…THE GREATEST STOCK IN THE WORLD…You should have been buying FORD LOL
GREAT point Irwin.

Well the dollar bottomed and gold topped in 2008 and in 2011. Now the US dollar is in bull market. When the dollar tops, perhaps gold will bottom plus or minus a little while.
The goldbugs have been pounding the table for 4 years of a bear market and it is all sour grapes.
bob M is lucky or highly astute if he bought his gold under $300. Most are not so lucky but it is surely nice to have bought in the years 2001-2004 for instance , if you bought under $500 Or even under $700. It is still aggravating to see profits eroded away though.
How refreshing someone with a brain, thank you! SD
You certainly do have a brain Silver Bug!
SD:
“For months I have been searching for some sign that we’ve seen the bottom for the precious metals. I am a contrarian investor. I want to invest when no one else sees opportunity.”. . .
“It couldn’t possibly get deader than this. No one is interested in mining companies today and that’s the time to buy.”. . .
“All classes of investments move in a pendulum from being absurdly overpriced (as silver was in 1980 and the Nasdaq in March of 2000 to being insanely cheap). In both real and nominal terms, the price of gold and the price of silver are cheaper than any point in the last 100 years. We can’t predict the bottom of any market and don’t know anyone who can. But silver and gold are cheap. And gold stocks are far cheaper than they were in the summer of 1999 when gold was cheaper in nominal terms than today.”. . .
“Small gold stocks are risky under any circumstances. They can rise 25% in a day and drop 25% in a day. Often the price of a particular stock seems to have no relationship whatsoever to the price of gold. One can rocket while the other plummets. And often small golds are so poorly financed that a small money problem can cause giant repercussions. Some of the companies are so tiny that the death of one of the members of management can have a disastrous impact. For that and many other reasons, in our own accounts, we invest in a wide variety of mining stocks hoping that a disaster in one will be offset by wonderful news in another. I personally believe a dozen or more stocks should be owned to spread the very real risk across a variety of companies. With some of these stocks selling for literally pennies, it is possible to buy thousands of shares for a relatively small amount.”
Those words were written in May of 2001. Martin Armstrong and Robert Prechter were both calling for $200 or lower gold.
SD you may see why I don’t have any patience with those whining about losing money in juniors now and again. I was warning from the gitgo how dangerous they were but people pay attention only to those who tell them what they want to hear. People love to hate gold now because some Johnny come lately who didn’t have squat to say in April or Sept of 2011 now hates gold. Of course everyone hates gold and loves the stock market and the dollar. That’s when markets surprise almost everyone.
Good stuff Bob. It is actually quite bullish there are so many uppity and pissed off bears right now.
Great information Bob. I remember that you was calling people to take profit in 2011. You are bull on gold but a smart bull. You give people good advice. I am not agreeing with you 100% but I feel you have done better than most. It is hard to be a bull now since people have a lot of reason to ridicule you. Keep it up.
Gold was $265 when I wrote those words. I don’t give a crap if gold is $1923 or $800. Why should I?
Bob I know this will be a real stretch for you to understand but now that you’ve highlighted to everyone just how incredibly smart you are buying gold at $265 because we all know nobody else was buying then, only you, really? And that you called the top in gold and silver and didn’t take profits which today you’d be able to buy a lot more silver and gold or a heck of a lot more if you had bought the Dow and the US$ as you called the top but that would be asking too much, right, especially with a $ crash and Dow crash coming the last 4 years, lol
So Bob how about all those that are long US$ since 72 do you really think they give a crap if the $ is 95, why should they!
How about all those that bought the Dow at 7000 or the S&P at 700 do you think they are worried.
Your not the only guy who has invested at much lower levels with very significant gains, imagine that
Actually this who bought the Dow at 7000, both of them, should be worried and with all the dollar bulls on this platform, everyone should be worried. A 2.20% drop in the dollar last week would be pretty much the equivalent of a $500 drop in gold in a day. The markets are giving warning of bad things coming down the pike.
You get to pick your choice of potential wars leading to WW III today. Might be Yemen, might be ISIS, could even be Ukraine. Why didn’t someone warn us bad things were coming down the pike>
Oops, someone was warning us and some didn’t want to pay attention because they were too busy playing that broken record, the market is never wrong, the market is never wrong, the market is never wrong, the market is never wrong, the market is never wrong.
Which is nonsense of course. The market gets it wrong all the time. If the market was right, you couldn’t have 2.20% moves in the dollar in a day.
Bob you know the more you post the more I realize you have no clue.
So your long gold at $265 as golds fallen 40% off its highs and you crow why should I care, well the US$ has fallen 4% off its highs , yes 4%!!!! oh my lets panic! The Dow has fallen 3% off its highs so its going to crash, man your losing it, simple math Bob, = No Big Deal!!
As I showed you the chart suggested shorting the US$ @ 97.50 so the market was right as it always was.
