Expected Returns

Precious metals investors have long been waiting for an upside breakout in silver…..

Source: http://www.expectedreturnsblog.com/ We are on the brink of a major parabolic move in gold that will coincide with peak bond bullishness and deflation fear mongering. This stems from the very basic misunderstanding of what “quality” is in a debt crisis. History is a great thing. It allows you to confirm that yes, people were just as … Continue reading

It appears the gold rocket launch is underway, which of course means that gold permabears will soon go into hiding. Was it really only 10 days ago that weak hands were panicking; Dennis Gartman…..

Victor Sperandeo is an experienced and well-respected trader who has previously traded for George Soros. He sees a good chance of hyperinflation developing in America, saying “If you research history there have been 30 occasions of hyper-inflation, all the numbers that take place 100% of the time in the other 30 occasions are here.” Some … Continue reading
