The Pension Crisis – & – The Crash & Burn

QUESTION:  Hi Marty – Question: You have blogged about the pension crisis and how Illinois and California on the brink of bankruptcy. Does this mean that other states which you don’t mention, like Florida, Texas, and New York, are financially sound and are going to be able to pay out pensions to their retirees for […]

Tell a Lie Often Enough it Becomes the Truth – How Lies Now Defeat Gold & Dollar

A flood of comments from central banks this week has been signalling that the era of easy money is coming to an end. Of course, the nonsense spouted out by the Gold Promoters that hyperinflation was coming has left 10 years of continually wrong forecasts, yet the pretend analysts have done far more damage to […]

The Plight of Junk Science in All Fields

Junk Science is the real crisis we face as so many people think that Global Warming is caused by man and Co2. Of course, those who really believe this is the problem that will destroy the world perhaps should just commit suicide and take the dog with them. Since we exhale Co2 that would reduce […]

ECB In Serious Trouble

The European Central Bank (ECB) left its stimulus programs and record low interest rates unchanged.

The only way that happens is a real crisis in Europe and a strong dollar. Correct? It seems really naive that people get bullish […]

Money Rushing in Emerging Markets & Europe – Really?

QUESTION: Martin; it seems the Emerging Markets are back in favor just as interest rates are on the rise and their dollar borrowings have exploded. Is this the final bubble that is unfolding?
