Be ready to pull the trigger when …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, January 28, 2013 at 8:30am

Unlimited money-printing from the Federal Reserve. Unlimited euro-printing from the European Central Bank. Unlimited yen-printing from the Bank of Japan … North Korea about to stage a rocket test directed at striking the U.S. North Korea now threatening war with South Korea. Terrorist actions in Algiers. In Mali. Bankrupt Spain. Greece. Italy. France going down [More »]

Market Turning Points Coming Soon …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, January 21, 2013 at 8:30am

Over the last couple of weeks there hasn’t been a lot of action in the markets. We continue to see very tight trading ranges that are likely due to the low volume. But more importantly the markets are now dealing with the background noise of the second half of the fiscal cliff negotiations — the [More »]

Such Total Nonsense …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, January 14, 2013 at 8:30am

The talk circulating that the U.S. Treasury can circumvent the debt ceiling by minting a trillion-dollar platinum coin is pure nonsense. First, to the best of my knowledge, the U.S. Treasury does not own any platinum. That means it would have to go into the market and buy up platinum to mint such a coin. [More »]

The Mayans Were Right …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, December 31, 2012 at 8:30am

The Mayans were right. They never predicted the end of the world on 12/21/12. Those predictions were the antics of doomsayers and others hell bent on frightening you. The Mayans predicted a turn in the major cycles impacting the world, and the beginning of a new era. And to that degree, I think they were [More »]

Why You Could See Some Special Dividend Payouts This Month!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, December 3, 2012 at 8:30am

Before I get to my analysis of the key markets, today I want to digress a bit and discuss what I call the “idiocy of raising taxes.” Especially taxes on dividends. It offers a great example of how raising taxes can backfire, and how Washington’s bureaucrats don’t have a clue about what they’re doing. Consider [More »]

A Cat-5 Debt Crisis is Coming Our Way!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, November 19, 2012 at 8:30am

Editor’s Note: The following is adapted from the main article of my November Real Wealth Report, which published last Friday. I consider it so important that I want everyone to read it. — Larry It’s not kind to President Obama, but whether you agree with my views or not, it’s an important read … The [More »]

Obama or Romney: Will it Really Matter?

by Larry Edelson | Monday, November 5, 2012 at 8:30am

Will it really matter who wins tomorrow’s election? That’s the $64 million question right now. No, make that the $222 TRILLION question. That’s how much in hock Washington is to our foreign creditors, to you and me, to Social Security, to Medicare, to government pensions and more. And while you might not like my answer, [More »]

Why a New Monetary System May Be Our Only Hope

by Larry Edelson | Monday, October 22, 2012 at 8:30am

Excuse me if I sound like a pessimist today. I’m not. I’m actually an optimist about our country’s future. I’m also optimistic for the future of the global economy. But I’m also a realist. No matter who wins the U.S. presidential election come November 6 ― there is simply no way our country will ever [More »]

It will take more than money-printing!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, October 8, 2012 at 8:30am

As you know, I am not convinced that gold, silver and other commodities are ready to fully break out to the upside in the short term. In fact, judging by the wicked 13% decline in oil prices in the last three weeks, I’d say deflation still has the upper hand. Ditto for the 12.6% decline [More »]

What Gold Is Saying …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, September 24, 2012 at 8:30am

New, unlimited money-printing from the Federal Reserve. Unlimited euro-printing from the European Central Bank. And that’s not all. Japan’s central bank is printing more yen. The Bank of England is on the fray as well, announcing even more pound-printing. And yet, as you can see from this chart, the price of gold has not even [More »]

Game-Changing Events and Market Action?

by Larry Edelson | Monday, September 17, 2012 at 8:30am

Last week we certainly had some game-changing events, with the German court ruling in favor of the European Stability Mechanism … Europe going ahead with yet more bailouts … and, perhaps more staggering, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke committing the Federal Reserve to buying $40 billion worth of mortgage-backed securities each month on an open-ended, unending [More »]

Sorry, Draghi, it ain’t going to work …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, September 10, 2012 at 8:30am

Why the Markets Are Headed for a Surprising Fall

by Larry Edelson | Monday, August 27, 2012 at 8:30am

If it turns out I’m wrong about the coming moves in the markets, so be it. I’ll make tons of money anyway, and so will those following my forecasts. Reason: I’m not a perennial bear, like a stopped clock that’s right twice a day. I’m actually very bullish long term on everything from precious metals [More »]

More Pain on the Horizon for Investors and the Markets

by Larry Edelson | Monday, August 13, 2012 at 8:30am

Two weeks ago I told you that August would see dramatic trending moves, and that we wouldn’t have to wait long for them to unfold. Well, they’re here NOW. Nearly all markets are pressing extreme resistance levels in what most traders and investors believe are breakouts. They see a surge in gold, and think it’s [More »]

A Hugely Profitable August Is on its Way …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, July 30, 2012 at 8:30am

For investors, this summer has been a doozy so far. It’s been full of uncertainty. What will happen to Europe? Will taxes go up here in the United States? Who will be the next president? The concerns, however, don’t end there. Is the economy OK, or is it starting to tank again? What will the [More »]

Ugly charts in gold, silver, oil and more …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, July 16, 2012 at 8:30am

I’d love to tell you that all is well in the world. That Europe has solved its sovereign-debt and currency problems. That the U.S. economy is looking better than most believe. And that Asia is about to soar again. But the fact of the matter is that none of that is true. Europe’s in deep [More »]

Why Our Founding Fathers are Rolling Over in Their Graves Right Now …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, July 2, 2012 at 8:30am

In a moment I’ll get to the markets and the latest developments in Europe and my take on them. But first, I would like to express my disappointment with the Supreme Court’s decision on ObamaCare. Don’t get me wrong. Every American should be entitled to world-class healthcare at an affordable price. But I’m no expert, [More »]

How to Profit From Falling Gold, Silver and Commodities A Timely Dialog Between Martin D. Weiss and Larry Edelson

by Larry Edelson | Monday, June 25, 2012 at 8:30am

The list of commodities slammed by global selling is growing by the day. Meanwhile, the list of sovereign countries and giant banks downgraded by major rating agencies is also getting a lot longer — 15 megabanks downgraded by multiple notches in one fell swoop … Spain downgraded to the brink of junk territory … India [More »]

Double-Trauma Strikes Europe! U.S. Next?!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, June 18, 2012 at 8:30am

Martin and Larry here, with an urgent report on the next, explosive stage of the European crisis now unfolding before your eyes … Yesterday’s election in Greece is just one chapter in this saga.

What I’ve been warning you about is here …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, June 4, 2012 at 8:30am

You’re seeing massive declines unfold in almost all markets. The reason for it is rather simple, and it’s something I’ve been warning you about. Even in the midst of what should prove to be the biggest commodity bull market ever, you can get sharp dis-inflationary moves, especially when … • Investors are frightened that governments [More »]

Commodities Down, Dollar Up … and Why That Could Change Soon

by Larry Edelson | Monday, May 21, 2012 at 8:30am

It didn’t take long for Europe’s sovereign-debt crisis to reassert itself. Here we are in May, a short three months after the last bailout of Greece, and Europe is crumbling again. Greece is on the ropes, and will most assuredly have to splinter away from the euro and take back its currency, the drachma. It’s [More »]

The Next Inflation Surge is Closer Than You Might Think

by Larry Edelson | Monday, May 7, 2012 at 8:30am

Right now, I remain bearish most commodity markets. The reason being, they have simply not fulfilled a short-term cyclical test of support. So, more downside is possible in gold, silver, oil and an assortment of other commodities. But there’s also no doubt in my mind that another inflationary surge is right around the corner. One [More »]

Why I’m Deeply Worried About the U.S. Dollar

by Larry Edelson | Monday, April 23, 2012 at 8:30am

The disaster in Europe should be pushing the U.S. dollar up more than it is. But it’s not, and that has me deeply worried … Worried that the next leg of the dollar’s decline may be right around the corner … worried that the loss of the dollar’s reserve-currency status could occur more [More »]

The Buying Opportunity of a Lifetime is Coming…

by Larry Edelson | Monday, April 9, 2012 at 8:30am

A few months ago, I started warning that … We’d see a short-term rally in the dollar, mainly against the euro. Europe would kick the sovereign debt can down the road a bit with money-printing (thereby weakening its currency). The U.S. economy would start to look a bit better. China would [More »]

Asia: A slowdown? Yes. A disaster? No. Read on …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, March 26, 2012 at 8:30am

There’s no question that China and the rest of Asia are outgrowing the Western world by leaps and bounds. All you have to do is follow the stats coming out of Asia, or take a trip to anywhere in Asia, and you’ll get a firsthand feeling for how vibrant the region is. But there’s also [More »]

Euro crisis solved? I don’t think so!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, March 12, 2012 at 8:30am

Many already think that the European sovereign debt crisis is passing. That the latest bond deal and bailout for Greece solves everything. But as far as I’m concerned, nothing could be further from the truth. First, severe austerity measures do not create growth. So there’s no way Greece can grow its way out of its [More »]

4 Moves We Must See Before the Next Bull Run Can Begin

by Larry Edelson | Monday, February 27, 2012 at 8:30am

There are several forces lining up now to send stocks into a new bull market. Chief among them … First, the sovereign-debt crisis. The money that’s going to come out of bonds has to go somewhere. It can’t all go into gold, silver and commodities. So as money shifts out of sovereign-bond markets in Europe, [More »]

The Real McCoy?

by Larry Edelson | Monday, January 30, 2012 at 8:30am

Everyone is up in arms because, as I pen this column, gold has rallied above $1,700 … silver has jumped as high as $33.79 … and the broader stock markets have risen to the top of the resistance ceiling I’ve previously cited at the Dow Industrials 12,800 level. So my readers are now piling on [More »]

I may look foolish short term, BUT …

It’s Martin Luther King Day, and most markets are closed for trading. Nevertheless, I want to give you an update. An important one, in my opinion.

Important Update on Gold and Silver …

by Larry Edelson | Monday, December 19, 2011 at 8:30am

Gold has plunged through many of the support levels I’ve previously provided you. It’s dropped through the $1,730 level … the $1,610 level … and has thus far reached as low as $1,564. Once it closes below $1,610 on a Friday, which it will likely have done before you even read this column — the [More »]

The Simple Truth of the Matter…

by Larry Edelson | Monday, December 5, 2011 at 8:30am

I’d love to tell you that last week’s coordinated central bank action would help Europe solve its financial crisis once and for all. And that last week’s upside market action was the real McCoy.

From my home base in Bangkok, Thailand, I can tell you — in no uncertain terms — that … Americans are getting screwed by their own leaders. The U.S. economy is headed down the tubes, again.

Who says the U.S. has never defaulted?

by Larry Edelson | Monday, July 25, 2011 at 8:30am

Despite all the grandstanding and dirty politics in Washington, any day now the United States debt ceiling of $14.294 trillion will be raised. I have no doubt about it. And quite frankly, it doesn’t really matter what agreements they come to in order to raise the debt ceiling. In the grand scheme of things, whatever [More »]

Bernanke out of bullets? Heck no!

by Larry Edelson | Monday, July 18, 2011 at 8:30am

by Larry Edelson | Monday, May 2, 2011 at 8:30am

I’ve been warning for some time now that there would come a day when the world started to flatly reject the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
