For the past four years I have been covering the progression of the global economic crisis with an emphasis on the debilitating effects it has had on the American financial system. Only once before have I ever issued an economic alert, and this was at the onset of the very first credit downgrade in U.S. history by S&P. I do not take the word “alert” lightly. [Read on to to understand why I have issued an economic alert once again.] Words: 1904

The Western world is going to need even more easing, more money. All of this is incredibly bullish for gold longer-term. I do think you have to navigate the end of the euro before the next massive move in gold, but that’s coming. It’s possible that gold may get hit initially as the euro fails, but you have to buy it if it does.

As contrarian investor Baron Rothschild said, “the time to buy is when there’s blood in the streets.” Here are five reasons we believe this sell-off sets up a buying opportunity for gold. Words: 388

The Federal government is gearing up for unprecedented social unrest (worse than Greece or Spain) when Washington is forced to impose "austerity" plans next year... [which will be deemed absolutely necessary to avoid] runaway inflation [that would otherwise occur] to pay for the country's costly welfare programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Food Stamps and massive unfunded liabilities. [Below are the preparations presently underway.] Words: 500

A top analyst at Citibank has told King World News that global stock markets are set to plunge 27%...the panic will move global bond markets to extreme levels, but gold will remain firm.

There’s also no doubt in my mind that another inflationary surge is right around the corner....probably starting no later than September. [Here's why and where you should invest to get the greatest bang for your buck.] Words: 785

Europe may soon be choking on that plat du jour of government a la Hollandaise with the side of chopped Greek salad. The whole world, in fact, has got something like a giant hairball stuck in its craw. The hairball is composed of filaments of lies wound over a core of supernatural indebtedness. The lies are promises that the debt will be paid back. Words: 710

We still don’t have many political voices [in the European Union] that have the courage to say, ‘We’re headed for the rocks, and before we hit the rocks, let’s take a different course. Let’s try to break this thing up peaceably, before it ends in disaster....The establishment always supports the status quo...but actually, I think the only way we can avoid a depression is to break this (the EU) up.

Marc Faber has stated in an interview* on Bloomberg Television that “I think the market will have difficulties to move up strongly unless we have a massive QE3 (something Faber thinks would "definitely occur" if the S&P 500 dropped another 100 to 150 points. If it bounces back to 1,400, he said, the Fed will probably wait to see how the economy develops)..... If the market makes a new high, it will be with very few stocks pushing up and the majority of stocks having already rolled over....If it moves and makes a high above 1,422, the second half of the year could witness a crash, like in 1987.” Words: 708

We’re in a lot of trouble, and the government is going to try to revive the faltering economy with more stimulus. It’s never going to work. It’s just going to make the problem worse...
