| Gold Will One Day Rise Again « Justice Litle » Posted: 09 Feb 2010 03:50 AM PST Does former SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt read Taipan Daily? How about Bloomberg columnist Jonathan Weil? It’s probably a big fat “no” for both, but you be the judge. In a Feb. 4 column, “Obama’s $6.3 Trillion Scam is America’s Shame,” Weil wrote the following (underscore emphasis mine): |
| The Decline In The Price Of Gold Is Still Young « Derek Blain » Posted: 09 Feb 2010 03:20 AM PST It seemed the gold bugs are out in full force over the weekend, calling “the bottom” on the gold price. We posted a follow-up chart at the end of the day to all those saying that the “high volume” toward Friday’s close was indicative of a major turning point. However, when the rest of the week is put into context, one can clearly see that this is a weak argument at best, and one based on hope. Gold may experience an upward move from this point on - it was a pretty major psychological … [visit site to read more] |

| CIT Group Hires Former Merrill Chief John Thain As New CEO « Money Morning » Posted: 09 Feb 2010 02:11 AM PST In a move that unites two prominent casualties of the financial crisis, CIT Group Inc. (CIT) ended a prolonged search by naming John Thain, the former chief of Merrill Lynch & Co., as its new chairman and chief executive officer. Thain, who left Bank of America Corp.

| When Will The US Economy Return To Normal? « Larry Doyle » Posted: 09 Feb 2010 12:01 AM PST The question most asked in economic circles is, “How and when will our economy return to normal?” My response is always, “What is normal?” I find it most impactful to explain to people looking to gain a greater understanding of our economy and our markets that the normal economy of the late ’90s through 2007 was driven by the shadow banking system. This shadow banking system provided upwards of 40-45% of the total credit employed by our economy. The shadow banking system … [visit site to read more] |

| Euro As Anchor Of Stability? « Merk Fund » Posted: 08 Feb 2010 10:01 PM PST The world’s attention is on the fiscal malaise in Greece and Portugal. Just a few months ago, policy makers told banks to shore up their balance sheets with more sovereign debt. However, policy makers around the world have since raced to spend money in an attempt to reinvigorate their respective economies, leading to record deficits. Now everyone appears surprised that weaker countries are having difficulty financing their largesse. In our assessment, what we see unfolding is a sign of … [visit site to read more] |
| Obomanomics One Year Out « Robert Reich » Posted: 08 Feb 2010 09:24 PM PST Obamanomics suffers from a misunderstanding of what the President is trying to achieve and what he's up against. Into the breach come Republicans, Tea Partiers, nay-sayers, deficit vultures, and Raging-Dog Democrats, all viewing Obamanomics as more taxes and more spending. That's nonsense. To see the big picture, keep your eye on three big things. 1. Government spending needed to offset the continued reluctance of consumers and businesses to spend. You don't have to be an orthodox … [visit site to read more] |

| Alan Greenspan: U-Shaped Recovery « Larry Doyle » Posted: 08 Feb 2010 07:01 PM PST Alan Greenspan is certainly not viewed in the same light now as he was during a large part of his tenure as chairman of the Federal Reserve.

| Beginning Of The End « Daily Reckoning » Posted: 08 Feb 2010 03:00 PM PST Could the commodity and equity rallies have ended? Has a change been triggered by a resurgent dollar, meaning its purportedly strong negative correlation with gold and commodities continues to drive the process? But if so, would this also not signal the end of the reflation and carry trades? Would it not also mean that contractionary monetary forces may soon dominate? If that is the case, is other evidence that the correlation between gold and the dollar, which on average actually has been … [visit site to read more] |
