TJ, you might like that Road to Roota stuff, includes pretty much everything your talking about, but the outcome is quite a bit more positive.

I sure hope not. Many of the older reactors that have been in service 30-40 years, should really be upgraded with the newer and more resilient 3rd or 4th generation reactors, and I would be much less concerned. The technology, stability, and safety in the new reactors has come a long way, but the older reactors still in use are a concern.

We’ve discussed in the past 2 other ideas that may present a better pathway forward:

1) Beryllium coated Uranium pellets that have a lower burning temperature and are more efficient. A company called IBC Advanced Alloys (IAALF) is working with MIT, and Texas A&M to develop and test this technology. They have a white paper about this research on their website.

http://www.ibcadvancedalloys.com/clientuploads/NuclearInfo/Nuclear%20Fuels%20White%20Paper_R4.pdf

2) The potential to develop Thorium Reactors, which would operate more safely, and the waste material would be far less of a concern than Uranium reactors.

Regardless, I look forward to innovations and new approaches to continue to utilize this form of power, with no carbon emissions, low cost base load power, and the ability to deliver it discretely without supply line interruptions, make it an invaluable part of the energy mix.

Of course, the downside to pursuing Thorium Reactors is that there is no real infrastructure for them in the USA, Russia, France, Japan, S. Korea, India, etc…, where the Uranium reactors are already in place, being build, or planned and being permitted. Also most of the naval vessels and private military installation power plants are all based on small private uranium reactors. (ie…. nuclear subs).

Still, countries that are building reactors from scratch are considering Thorium Reactors as part of their energy mix.

Here’s a pretty interesting article that brings the Thorium idea back into the forefront, and there are a number of exploration companies listed at the bottom.

Does Thorium Play a Role in the Future of Nuclear Energy?
Thorium, a slightly radioactive metal that occurs in rocks and soils, may hold promise as a replacement for uranium in the nuclear energy sector.

Blah blah blah…..get a blog.

Look who’s talking.

Thanks Dan, calgary. Hope all is well with the business and in life.

I’m not sure why Birdman has to be such a blog mosquito and pest.

He sure hasn’t contributed anything worth any value on today’s blog or yesterday’s blog, but rather he’s only been an antagonist, insulting, and has proved the case of why everyone is so done with him on here.

I greatly appreciate the stock suggestions and think uranium is under the radar for now. I like BM’s points of view but enough is enough.

Agreed.

We do have a problem. LPG condemns and then
send his luv.

Nonetheless, we all need to make every attempt
to get along. We are going to experience a calamity
in the not too distant future, all of this is so trivial.

To keep being critical makes no sense. Unless its
a scam artist or a wannabe dreamer who likes all
the posts candy coated. Thats just adolescent
type behavior. It burns me up.

There is nothing optimistic regarding calamities.

Problem is, many have disregarded the risks and
their judgment is completely misplaced and flawed.

Best people can do to, let the two contributors
handle their own disagreements instead of
others parties who have no business in the
conversation.

EVERYONE MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS !

Stop throwing more fuel on the fires in here.

If someone was offended, then practice
patience for when they have been wronged.
/mistreated. Falsely accused and abused.

Be compassionate and act with loving care.

Kiss and make up. !!! And be patient.

The falsely accused will forgive on their own
timing. Again, patience is key !!!

TJ,
Don’t forget: listen to this a few times – you’ll feel better:

LPG, stop trying to avoid your defeat gunning me down

Boy, that stuff is nasty and for total wimps.

Get that _____ out of here. Shame on you LPG !!!

LPG, here’s what happened on the day I was born

You need a reality check.

Anyone that wants to step up to the

I’m right here to settle. We Can Settle Right Now !!

What about you — Mortie. How about Bill.

Anyone ?

Take Your Best Shot !!!

You got nothin anyway. I’ll prove it over and over again.

What are you talking about Don? I don’t post here very often anymore.

TJ,
Thanks for the video link.
His front teeth looks like pop corn: no surprise there.
Luv Luv Luv and don’t forget: PCL – Pop Corn Love
LPG

LPG, I do not care anymore. You can
marry the corn pop for all I care.

Its well past shelf life and expiration.

Finally its clear this site is really about entertainment. Everyone is such a bullshitter here. And good grief, those PC hacks that keep trying to pigeon hole the place into stocks-only discussion are so tiresome when a lot more matrimonial and religion would be more interesting. Like I said, we need more Cat-in-the Hat around here (and popcorn too). Bring on Dr Seuss.

They have a short life span with their brain cells.

However, the show must go on.

I asked in the other thread Bird.
Have you read the Road to Roota stuff?
If ya have maybe you could “chirp” your thoughts.

Kind of a differant outlook using the same info the goldbugs use.

TJ, you might like that Road to Roota stuff, includes pretty much everything your talking about, but the outcome is quite a bit more positive.

Thanks B. Maybe you got something there.

You guys maybe can run it by me on the forums.

First I heard of it B.

Hey, thanks a lot bb. Just started in reading some Bix Weir after reading your post and no, I don’t know anything about it at all but so far it looks pretty interesting. I kind of needed that actually to refresh myself after wading through all the bizarre hostile posts here the past few days.

Its kind of nice to read a different outlook with a few interesting twists and turns instead of wading through reams of company press releases and the usual crud that foolish Shad keeps shoving down everyone’s throats.

Let me get into the material a little more first before saying to much about Road to Roota since its all new to me. I will say this though, there is something very odd and at the same time alarming about how many of the long term charts I am looking at lately lead in a single direction.

What I mean by that is that many support one another in a way I did not expect and the outcomes are less variable than I might have imagined. We will almost certainly have an economic collapse sometime during or after 2018 and the typical family is going to see substantial losses in most of their asset values.

I recall Martin Armstrong saying that most people stand to lose everything and that might well be true. I don’t know but my best guess is we will roll back the clock on average net worth to the levels last seen in the 1970’s.

I am talking about average losses of wealth coming in at 25 to 35% which if it happens will utterly devastate most peoples retirement dreams and wipe others out to zero if they are too indebted when the day and time comes.

Can’t say that I know if a gold standard will return again but life will get pretty difficult for most and the after effects should continue on for years as a devastating deflation in asset values relentlessly withers away most peoples nest eggs year after year as the charts work there way back to their means.

I could try to channel the spirits on this one for a little insight but my belief is the problem is one of the mortal world and the coming collapse is being orchestrated and managed behind the scenes by just a handful of smart minds.

The reason is that the same charts I am looking at are available to everyone else and those in the position of power to make change are using the natural rhythm of those charts to bring about the changes that they ultimately want to see.

It is a little along the lines of “don’t let a good crisis go to waste” but its far more sophisticated than that and more deliberate too. Its why I dread what I think is coming. That is, that commodities are going to take another leg down to levels not seen in 40 years while stock markets soar into a final apocalyptic bubble.

I still don’t believe we are in a gold bull market. Not at all. And odds are the next bull in precious metals won’t start until 2017 once this bear has finally taken its final bow. Instead, general equities will get all the love in a final wave up that precedes a devastating crash that awaits us at its termination point.

And I also can’t know the exact sequence of events and neither does anyone else except that the long term charts are all pointing to something very big, very ominous and very worrisome beginning in the next 24 months or so.

I suspect that when the time arrives there will be an unsettling event in the world that will not be directly related to the economy or stock markets at all but that the event will be the trigger that brings about the great reckoning in financial markets.

So we should not expect Deutche Bank to be the straw that breaks the camels back or that the Fed will run out of bullets or anything like that. Instead we will get something unexpected out of left field like a Richter 9 Earthquake on the Pacific West Coast that the whole world can later point too and use as an excuse to explain why the system abruptly suffered a major failure.

I am of course talking about the great asset deflation which is the inevitable winter following many decades of credit expansion and how that unwind will seep into the lives of absolutely everyone whether rich or poor.

We will get our Jubilee but I kind of doubt anyone will be celebrating. And maybe the gold bull market will arrive with a vengeance and without notice as the banking system of the globe comes unglued for awhile.

Who knows eh? I just think that the Fed and the worlds major central banks need do nothing more than the keep us all liquid between now and when that unexpected event occurs and that said event must be unrelated to the financial system to be believable as the cause of the crash that must come.

Because in that world the system cannot be allowed to break because of the banks themselves. There must be another cause to pin blame on and say “see, that’s why the air is really hissing out of the credit gasbag”.

Like I said….they are looking at the same charts we are. And those charts must resolve themselves before the next growth stage can begin. So they are working within defined parameters and chart mechanics that are rather inevitable while holding the ship together with staples and duct tape until “it” happens.

Even “they” may not know what “it” is. They just need keep us functional until it comes.

The trick for the rest of us is to somehow evade the carnage and keep as much of our savings and wealth intact as we cross from this current system and into the next. I doubt most will succeed.

We need to kind of squint our eyes and peer into the future and keep a very open mind for what’s coming. It will be a Black Swan. It won’t be on the radar and it will be a huge event when i arrives. Like an asteroid or something……. Are we ready though……..?

I don”t know if that is even possible.

Here is just one example of a long term chart I am looking at. You know how I often key in on the big picture charts that show an expanding wedge (AKA a megaphone pattern). Well this is one of them and it is alarming as hell because it actually projects a future where earnings fall below zero on the S&P!!!!

What the hell can that possibly mean? Zero earnings?

Thing is that megaphones are fairly reliable and easy to chart. This one is called a rising megaphone so it terminates with a crash that falls below the lowest prior low. The next and last leg down therefore takes us into completely unknown territory and as far as I know it has NEVER happened before.

Judge it for yourself and get back to me if you see anything in it unusual. I don’t think anybody other than myself has ever brought this particular chart to the attention of the community. And I am also quite sure it will elicit the usual garbage responses like a few days ago that I don’t make any contribution of value around here.

The usual suspects of course (the copy and paste crowd)
Idiots !!!!! They might pay attention and learn something for a change.

S&P500 Earnings Per Share — Charted from 1990 to present.
This is a massive rising megaphone pattern and we are now embarking on the third and final leg down. BEWARE people. The only advances available in stocks from here on out are in stock values themselves but you can pretty much kiss most dividends and positive future earnings goodbye for some years to come.

Don’t ask me what it really means though. Just expect it to get really bad out there with a whole lot of corporate failures.
http://www.macrotrends.net/1324/s-p-500-earnings-history

Sorry but the chart does not post / link with the level of detail I am using. You will have to use the slider bar at the top of the chart to see what I was seeing. Just move it to the year 1990 and you will get the picture instantly.

its a whole shit moment….i guarantee it.

The Yellow line (EPS) is the one you need to focus on. The blue line is the S&P.

Bet you guys never saw this chart before did you?

And it is the single most worrisome chart I have ever come across in my life. Get out your trusty ruler and then plot an imaginary line across the lows to estimate where it is going and then just ask yourself the same questions I asked…..

OMG…..What the hell does this really mean???????????

Because honest to G-D it looks like the end of the world on a pitchfork to me.

(snore) ZZZZzzzz………

Please heed your own advice.

You don’t even know what you are looking at do you Shad? Worse still, you are so arrogant you probably didn’t even try. But you know what? Even Zerohedge doesn’t have that chart. And you have never seen it before either.

A reader had to come to Ker to see that commentary. Your little snore is just a cover for your genuine lack of insights and understanding about the entire market. And its a cover up to shield your jealousy of anyone who offers original material.

Take that to the bank Mr Copy-and-paste. We are going to see an epic deflation and your little golden relic is going down with the ship. Sorry to be blunt but I was right all along and I can prove it in visuals just like the ones above.

Now take a walk you imposter!

Threads too long.

Collapse and Systemic Failure at All Levels Coming to U.S.- Dmitry Orlov
No link sry
The site is “Club Orlov”

Your chart looks to me an event about every 8 to 10 years, I believe Bix Weir figures something is going to happen, just as you describe, an event or incident, he doesnt know what it is either. Black Swanish I guess.

And yes, it looks like alot of wealth could change hands.
I guess paper can just disapear and digits, physical infrastructure will survive.

Hard assets, from shoes and shovels to bricks and boats.
Figure out what you need and might need.

That timeing your chart shows, interesting, I thought from about 10?yrs ago, 2020 would be the time to own some metal.
Its looking to be more than that tho, the “preppers” might be closer to understanding.

Once you see the Road to Roota stuff, you see its actually positive tho.
If he is right that is.

Shad/Ex.

Birdman’s post is fairly accurate and this site needs more
of the stinking truth.

Set aside the differences. A calamity is not far fetched.

Actually, its going to be here sooner than anyone realizes.

These vendettas need to be gone. Very trivial. Crisis coming etc.

Agree Jake. A crisis is coming. We need to put our heads together in a more congenial way if we are to grasp exactly what these charts are warning about. I have many others that I have been puzzling over but the analysis keeps coming out the same.

There is a rather large shit storm on the way and I am not certain I know how it can be navigated. Maybe we all lose and the game is more about trying to just lose the least. It’s no joke though. I am seriously concerned.

That chart in particular tells us what is going to come is a once in a hundred year event or something really big along those lines. Certainly not a garden variety credit collapse so maybe we should all be seriously planning on a barter system and keeping a backyard hen house.

Appreciate all the efforts Birdman,

I had a reply going out earlier regarding all your commentary and the post
went to cyber heaven. Lost in space.

Unfortunate, but everyone knows my thoughts anyway and also to encourage
what your doing because this site lacks transparency with the truth.

Its really a tragedy what’s taking place in here although contributors don’t need
to cease and desist their current activities, exception would be to hinder your
analysis into the future. You are definitely on the right track.

Couldn’t agree more with all your comments. Too bad that post got lost I attempted
to send.

Keep posting all your thoughts. I stand with you all the way. We need someone to
wise up in here and get the message out. There is a sh%t storm coming and to
deny it is so very ignorant/foolish.

I am a lover of the truth. Anything else is suicide.

Ha — anyway .. tell it like it is — the rest can go home !! IMHO

Also, your message to Shad/Ex. He should or better listen.

Paper gold is extremely toxic and even physical will take
a dump for a short time.

Very unlikely the bottom is in or we are going to at least
have a big correction.

The risks are very high. Everything will be affected.

Last minute thoughts.

Yep, you guys got it all figured out….

Bird, I cant believe you even wonder about a backyard henhouse.
Of course.
Land with water, that runs into a pond that has fish.
A dog or two, everything you can imagine for self sufficiancy.
Solar power etc
Whatever your physically capible of.
Lotsa prepper lists.

Celentes 3 gs, guns gold and a getaway plan.

My kids have a rally point, outside the city, it has water ducks chickens yadda yadda

Shad/Ex.

Are you aware that Islam is being used to destroy us and The West.

Do you know who occupies The White House and how lethal/ dangerous
this is becoming.

These is so much more and this is by far the most extremely risky times we live in.

Anyway, I can assure you that there is no blue skies anywhere in sight especially
for paper gold anything.

If your listening to the gold analysts and community, you are being mislead. No
doubt about it. They must pitch gold most of these guys to stay in business.

They are bias. Hubbert Morris you quote often, has had major losses in the bear
several years back. Any gold perma bull looks good when things take off.

I could go on and on. Just don’t get caught in the snare. No one is going to
protect you. Listening to anyone, can and may cause you major financial
losses. 98% of PM investors lose money.

Don’t assume anything in this extremely risky business and now we are about
to enter a major financial storm. Paper will be toxic. They won’t tell you this.

Analyze ourselves too. Are we investing and bullish in a sector because we
believe its going to come through for us promoting most of our financial dreams.

Possibly counting our chickens before they hatch, so to speak.

Everyone must suit themselves. Risks become very high when motivations are
depending on one particular event that we believe that is going to push us to the
top.

Developing a love affair is very dangerous to ones financial health. Then people
end up exponentially frantically insist one particular event will come through.

Thereby, forcing a square peg, into a round hole.

The pros are being hyped for gold products/shares. People better start looking at
the cons, because the list is long.

Another trading rule. If our eggs are mostly in one basket, you better watch that
basket. Having a love affair as I said, won’t help matters any.

The other black swan, we are in a major war cycle and
civil unrest cycle.

Everything is converging at the same time with a devastating
financial collapse.

Anyone who is unaware of all these perils, will also make fatal
mistakes with their lives and investments.

There again, I could go on and on.

One thing for certain, the cult for gold riches is in full swing.

And that is leading to a disaster in all this love affair and gold
dreaming.

They are so hell bent on it, its frightening ! Even when the risks are high.

TJ Thanks for the heads up. I know you are doing your best to warn people of the physical and spiritual risks you see in front of us, but you’ve made your point well known now. Everyone has received the message.

As for black swans, by their very nature, they are unseen catastrophes that shake up the markets, and worrying and dithering over what could happen is not a fruitful exercise.

It’s very wise for a family to have a preparedness plan in place with the essentials, but after one has that, then why keep rehashing all threats in the world and what could take the human race down the drain? Why not focus on the great ideas, innovations, breakthroughs, and majority of people that wonderful souls? I guess my glass is half full, not half empty. To each their own….

So Birdman can pat himself on the back (big shock) for this long term megaphone pattern in the chart that is 100% unhelpful for trading this week or next, debate the end of the world coming soon, and you guys can sit around biting your nails and quivering in the darkness together.

For the sake of the KER show, the sponsors (who are mining companies BTW), and the special guests that spend their time every week to share INVESTING ideas…… please spare us your brilliance on these end of the world doom scenarios. They’re quite boring and won’t many any investors on here a single penny……oh, as for entertainment value…..it’s the worst.

Shad/Ex.

I completely disagree with your philosophy regarding the dire conditions the
world is in. If you saw your house on fire, you would not just sit by and watch
it burn to the ground.

Your house is on fire whether you know it or not. All of us are headed into a great
calamity.

Regardless, we had our discussion on another thread. If indeed, the topic is disgussed
or you believe in something else does not limit the board.

You can ignore whatever does not suit your beliefs and continue to post your own analysis
etc.

Just reaffirming and enjoy your day.

TJ – Disagreeing is fine. Everyone having their own point of view is and always has been fine with me and with most anyone. That has never been the issue, and nobody on here thinks the same way about everything, nor would anyone expect or even enjoy a world where everyone was in perpetual agreement.

* It is the lack of respect, the insults, the antagonizing, and the crapping all over other people’s posts that is an issue, and has been a chronic issue for years with certain posters.

— > Need I remind you that this thread was started by a simple exchange with CFS and I about the environment of nuclear energy, the benefits of Beryllium-coated Uranium pellets, and the potential advantages of Thorium powered nuclear plants.

That wasn’t something Birdman knew anything about so he had to come along and leave one of his bird droppings. He looks for ways to be irritating and that is not a contribution, it’s a detriment to the site. It would have been better if Birdman could just be civil and keep his beak out of other people’s posts if he is not going to contribute in a positive way.

Eventually this thread turned into an end of the world thread. Again, this is the Korelin ECONOMICS Report, not the Koreline End-Of-The-World Report.

TJ/HH – I understand your passion to warn everyone, and maybe that was Birdman’s intent with his Megaphone chart about the coming implosion of all things. Those comments are a bit over the top for an investment forum focused on the resource sector. They would also be over the top on any other blog with a different focus like a car racing blog, bird-watching blog, or cooking recipe blog. There are, however, other websites that cater to those discussions that would be far more appropriate than a site focused investing in the resource sector .

As for ignoring posts and scrolling past them if you aren’t interested, I’ve always advocated such and have to do just that quite often on here to get past much of the blather. If only certain posters could simply scroll past a list of stocks that have been picked to highlight a subsector of miners, or area play, or the weighting & holdings inside a particular ETF….. if they are too lazy to follow up on these ideas or disagree.

Again, the problem has never been people with differing points of view, it is the appropriateness of the comments relative to investing or the antagonizing, insulting attack posts, that serve no value here.

I also wish you well TJ and hope you have a great weekend. Keep you chin up man and let’s spend a little more time on the great things humanity does, the innovations, break through, the fact that most people anywhere are kind and love their families, and don’t like conflict. Let’s spend some time on the attitude of gratitude and wish others peace, not stir the waters into a tempest of conflict.

Cheers!

You bet. Thanks for a great show this weekend Big Al & Cory. It is appreciated.

Is the link that is on the GOP website and it clicks through.

Google “Republican Party platform 2016” gets you to GOP.gov website and a few inches down is a link to the full text of the platform.

The really scary thing about both major party platforms is that they both promise all kinds of spending, totally without any restraint.

They seem both insane…….guaranteed impossible, because of the debt load and pending problem already with Medicare and social security.

Dai Uy, What I dislike the most are people that say they don’t like a certain candidate but can’t back their thinking up with logical rational thinking and then jump on the appropriate bandwagon at the last moment. DT

Thus far, all of Trumps opposition have been exposed. Look at Cruz, after falling on his sword at the convention, his political career is over. Trump speaks the truth and it resonates. That’s why he will win, and win big!

Its amasing to watch Trump, just about everything he says is a lie.
The Daily show took apart a speech of his and point by point, line by line, all lies.
Totally funny, a total liar, 100% better than Hillory.
Lets hope the “I can work with Putin” is true at least.

That should only strengthen my case that you can’t figure it out, CFS.

You seem to think Trump is some great businessman!

But in 1974, thanks to his father, he was worth $40 million.
So was Warren Buffet. Buffet is now worth about 20 times what Trump is!
In fact, if Trump had just taken his money and invested in the S&P index, with dividend reinvestment, he would now be wealthier.
Some “businessman”

Remember Trump Shuttle? Failed after 3 years, defaulted on debts.
Remember Trump Vodka, bankrupt 2011
Remember Trump Entertainment Resorts with 3 casinos in Atlantic City? Filed for bankruptcy protection 3 times in 6 years before going belly up in 2014.
Remover Trump Magazine? Failed after 18 months.
Remember Trump Steaks or Trump Steakhouse in Las Vegas, both businesses failed.
Remember Trump University 2005-2012 bankrupt, currently being sued by NY Attorney General for $40 million for fraud.
Remember Trump Mortgage, 2006-8. Failed.
Trump so far has stiffed banks and bond holder to the tune of about $ 6 billion.
Some great businessman.
He is a showman, not a good businessman.

Even his great one success, Trump Tower, only came about because he used influence and eminent domain to screw some elderly people out of their lifetime homes.
Sure he offered one old lady a million dollars which she refused, and then got the NY City to use eminent domain and screw her out of $780,000, in compensation.
Good business, but his morals stink, IMHO.
WHAT DID I NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT YOUR POINT, DT?

CFS,
Most of those businesses went bankrupt because of market conditions. Some were just bad choices. But there is a very large list of his successes. And since you never saw Ted for what he really is, a fraud. I would just say you are trying to fit a square peg in a round hole..

As long as populations grow, it is necessary to have economic growth or standard of living will decline.

I’m not sure…you post was still just a bunch of garbage like usual Birdman.

Why don’t you wander back up to the top of the blog and continue your end of the world discussion with TJ/HH and your toadie b. Let’s leave the more intellectual discussions for people with a brain.

You can pat yourself on the back for this long term megaphone pattern in the chart that is 100% unhelpful for trading this week or next, debate the end of the world coming soon, and sit around biting your nails and quivering in the darkness together.

I’m here for investing ideas, and have shared hundreds of “original” charts only found on the KER (since authenticity is apparently so important to you). So have tons of other posters over the years. Matthew, Brian, Gabriel, CFS, FranSix, Glenfidish, Marty, and so many other have shared unique and original charts all the time.

Yes, I often cut and paste press releases or articles because I didn’t write them Einstein, but they are relevant to those companies, and for investors that are monitoring those stocks they can represent huge opportunities. If you had any clue you’d know just in the last few months we’ve cut and pasted the details of several mergers where there were arbitrages that investors could scalp a nice profit on. Sometimes the articles are about production results, or mergers, or asset sales, etc…. Now if you only come on here to be a blow hard like you and TJ and you don’t actually invest in mining companies, then yeah, I could see where they wouldn’t represent any value.

Other investors on the KER, are actually in and out of the markets, are interested in mining companies (that’s kinda what the blog for investing in resource companies is all about), and these savvy or novice investors actually have a clue and apprecitation. My posts are for them. Birdman, B, and TJ, I wouldn’t post at all and cast my pearls before swine……

Cheerio garbage man…..

Shad/Ex.

I’m not investing in them because I don’t believe in them.

PERIOD !!!

Long term and maybe short term, they are your dream.

NOT MINE : I’m not ______ bag holder !

Gold is not in a bull.

I resent you calling me out like that !!!

I said physical gold only.

I DON’T HAVE TO LIKE YOUR FOOLS GOLD !!! OKAY

YOUR NOTHING BUT A FUTURE BAG HOLDER !!

So get that through your thick head.

KNOCK IT OFF !!!

Your nothing but a wannabe dreamer !!!

Paper is toxic. Prove it isn’t.

All a stupid dream !!!

Furthermore Shad/Ex.

All your analysts like Morris Hubbert is a big dud. He’s lost
fortunes for people over the years. I never said anything but
I am now.

All your gold shares when the market collapses will all be duds
too.

Keep dreaming Shad about paper fools gold.

WHAT COMES NEXT IS NOT PROSPERITY FOR GOLD SHARES.

All you have is past performance as your analysis for big bull
market and listening to duds.

Tell me about the future with these inflation hedges in
paper and prove its going to be a lucrative investment.

Past performance I’m already aware of.

TELL ME MORE SHAD ???

You sure are overly confident of yourself this sector is going to make
you rich.

ONLY A ROOKIE WOULD BELIEVE THAT !!!

I’m pretty happy being up over 400% in my mining positions so far this year, and posted as much information as I could on opportunities for share price appreciation, quality companies with a great trajectory for the mid-term, original charts comparing companies, thoughts on technical analysis, press releases, and related articles.

You can buy a lot of food preparedness kits,guns, and gold with those kinds of returns. I invite you to try it sometime. 🙂

Shad/Ex.

Your full of bloated hot air. I specifically told you
not to mention past performance and there’s your
BIG DUD !!! Right there staring you in the face.

You are only in this sector because of overwhelming greed.

Thats all you got. Just a wannabe dream.

From here. Again, the past has nothing to do with
the future unless your a rookie.

Tell me more Shad ??

Right now its just a fantasy of yours.

ALL IT IS !!!

TJ/HH – I have no interest in furthering this discussion with you – it is fruitless.

Maybe you can toddle on back up to the top of the blog and hang with the doom squad Birdman and his toadie B. Remember, Birdman was the one that was so vocal in having your removed last time and hated your guts. I stood up for you in the past when you were HH, for your right to express yourself, just like I stood up for Franky in the past. It is now clear to me that there should be certain parameters on a blog so people don’t crap all over other people’s posts with nonsensical mumbo jumbo.

It is the Korelin ECONOMIC Report……. and not the Korelin END-OF-THE-WORLD Report.

Please go find wherever Franky is posting and join him there, and if you don’t mind, take Birdman & his toadie with you.

Thanks Pal.

Shad/Ex.

You can continue to believe whatever you want.

I will, at least believe what I want.

The posts will continue with opinions and we shall all
make our commentaries based on that.

Fair enough !!

fair enough. Have a good rest of the weekend.

Shad/Ex.

All of what you say is irrelevant.

You sound like a old screaming nanny.

STOP STOP STOP !!!

If you don’t like the world view’s and how it is very much
dire, that’s not for you to decide.

STOP — screaming like an Old Nanny !!

One thing we don’t need in here is a screaming old nanny
like you Shad.

Learn to live together in here and don’t try and control
everything. You will be fine.

Go about your business and stop the nanny crap !!

Sorry, Shad/Ex. Please disregard the post above
then.

Enjoy your day. No hard feelings.

you’re the one using all caps and a million explanation points pal.

Again, Like I said – Have a good weekend man! (listen to your Nanny now…..)

Never saw your post.

Anyway, lets all be cool.

“Stay Frosty”

Okay, you too.

🙂

I don’t do happy faces anymore.

The “Good Will” is appreciated
and respected any time two
parties can set aside differences.

Agreed.

What the excellent series misses from my point of view is full economic theory.
Yes, capitalism is the best system.
Hayek was right, but failed to take into consideration the effect of democratic (small d) politicians.
Keynes was right, but not totally, again failing to take into consideration the effect of democratic politicians.

Free market capitalism is always ore efficient than central control.
Government spending is necessary to smooth the boom-bust variations which tend to develop.
But government spending is always inefficient and wasteful; it is necessary in recessionary times, but MUST be reduced in boom times.

Socialism is necessary to the extent that governments should set a minimum standard below which citizens cannot fall.
The problem is balance, because social government spending is not efficient, and produces a drag on the economy.
In a democracy, however, politicians want to get re-elected and thus tend to overspend. Thus the drag on the economy tends to be too much and reduces growth.

With current monetary policy, with interest rates kept artificially low, the value or price of money discovery is totally destroyed. Money moves inefficiently and useless bubbles are blown.
Open market economics can work, but not without some regulation.
The problem is that democratically-elected politicians tend to be lawyers not good economists. They like to spend money during recessionary times, but will not reduce spending during boom times.
The consequence of this is not to smooth the boom-bust fluctuations, but to increase volatility.

Globalism can work by tapping into cheaper labor, and creating wealth using that labor.
It does not necessarily imply that jobs have to be lost in the US, but the US government cannot compete by reducing efficiency by ever increasing the drag on the economy caused by regulations and government spending; that will grantee further loss of jobs in the US.

DMO re: your thoughts at 9:19AM
Very well said, and I agree completely.
