So you thought you lived in a Capitalist, Free market country. A trillion here, a trillion there, petty soon your talking real money! Speaking of real money, buy gold and silver. Even better, buy gold and silver miners. A 20% increase in their commodities prices traslates into a 50% increase in ...

We can no longer rely on ourselves any more. Everything we have comes from someone else(cars, clothing, food, toys) Funny, 20 years ago they said we must find ways to conserve gas. What happen?? Big Oil companies didn't want that. USA has gotten the BIG HEAD and we are paying for it. We have taught ...

The number one problem with our republic is that it has become a democratic tyranny which contravenes much of the Constitution. Literally thousands of special handouts to special interests (mostly but not entirely Democrat constituencies) rob us daily. Following Federal legally authorized powers, ...

Most people seem to think that the stock market has hit bottom or is close to bottom. Who will lead the bull market return. Many stocks are at or near their 52 week lows including the big banks. Risky, maybe? But financials will have to finance Big Companies and Little Companies to grow and expand. ...

Greetings, I think we need to stop sending money to countries each time they're hit with problems(Georgia = 1 Billion). Invest at home first! I think we need to stop rebuilding areas that shouldn't be built (New Orleans + Flordia Coast + Malibu + anywhere we build in the desert). Invest at home ...

Our first priority should be decent free education to young people who want to learn and are capable to do so. Vocational school should be available to those who do not wish to enter into an academic field. Parents should bear the full responsibility to teach their children decent manners so they can ...

After world war II we had a tremendous debt and taxes were high. The GI Bill was a great idea and gave all of the returning soldiers a chance to attend college and become tax paying citizens. If we just cut out the pork in government and tend to the necessities and everyone quits spending all their ...

We spend nearly 10% of our federal budget in interest. We are not even paying principal. Because we as a country are constantly spending more than we earn, next year we will spend more of our budget in interest. The year after, we will spend more in interest. The year after that, we will spend ...

Or we could just get a Constitutional money system to profit the Americans in the US instead of the one that in the 1970s was paying twenty something million dollars per day in interest to the Bank of England majority owned and controlled Federal Reserve System. Hard to study the Jekyll Island secret ...

July was a horrible month for the automakers, but many believe it was the trough and that the situation will not get any worse. I believe if we see another spike in gasoline prices, July will not be the worst month. However, if prices continue to decline or even stabilize around current levels, July ...

Mr. Jovine: Everyone talks about what their particular "entitlement" means to the inhabitants of our nation as a whole. Health plans, social security, farm support, any and all entitlements are part of the problem and not part of the solution. I want to remind everyone that the reason we pay ...

The Federal and State governments should use a cost benefit analysis on every proposed expenditure and program. The various programs could then be ranked as to most return for the proposed cost. Items such as medical vaccinations and health education which save 5 to 10 dollars in future cost ...

Putting together a sound plan of attack using sector rotation and relative strength in order to pick stocks is confusing, complicated, and sometime frustrating. It can become downright stressful when dealing with one's own money. What exactly should I look for? What order should I go in? How do I work ...

Last week a reader asked what I thought of the Oil Service sector in response to my article “OIL: The Beginning of a Long Term Down Trend?”
Although oil service stocks have experienced gains over the past couple of years, as oil prices have ballooned, the oil service sector has been adversely ...
