As Solar Eats The Energy Sector, It’s Time To Revise The “Real Assets” List
In the energy market, there’s always a revolution going on somewhere. For most of human history, light and heat were provided by wood and candles. Then we discovered whale oil, and in the early 1800s lamps replaced candles. Later in that century, kerosene, a petroleum derivative, became the lamp oil of choice, and the whaling […]
The Social Security Crisis that Millions of Americans Don’t See Coming
Sponsored: This is the “economic time bomb” Alan Greenspan worries about most. Deficit spending is parabolic, and it’s destroying the savings of unsuspecting Americans.

Welcome To The Third World, Part 30: California Burning In The Dark
Venezuela has suffered through recurring power outages this year, as money for routine maintenance dries up and power plant employees flee the country (and, okay, as the US practices its cyberwar skills on a vulnerable target).

Gold Seasonality Turns Positive – Prepare For A Big January

Here Comes The Deluge Of Meaningless “Good News”
