This video is astonishing, but in truth, is simply a small serving of the overall bias with which the media has been addressing Ron Paul. The media has certainly already dismissed a win for Ron Paul tonight in Iowa. The real question moving forward is - will the general public do what the media tells them to do? ]]> http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2012/01/breaking-do-what-the-media-tells-you/feed/ 0 Breaking: You Like Ron Paul, Except on Foreign Policy http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/12/breaking-you-like-ron-paul-except-on-foreign-policy/ http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/12/breaking-you-like-ron-paul-except-on-foreign-policy/#comments Thu, 22 Dec 2011 16:40:34 +0000 admin http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/?p=1121

To be sure, late spring and the summer to date, has certainly been interesting. Like multiple fingers running into a larger body of water, there are many significant things on the financial horizon that will no doubt shake and potentially seize the markets. Regardless, the reaction by the economic central planners will be the same - more monetary easing and stimulus to solve all. As The Financial Panner has been writing for some time, this reaction to continually paper over our economic problems, will simply push up the price of commodities - namely gold and silver - while increasing the cost of living. Get ready for some pain. Quantitative Easing 2 formally ended on June 30, 2011 (whether it really did is of course another question). This expectation certainly [...] ]]> http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/07/a-world-of-hurt/feed/ 0 Breaking: Hell on Earth http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/06/breaking-hell-on-earth/ http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/06/breaking-hell-on-earth/#comments Fri, 24 Jun 2011 12:08:58 +0000 admin http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/?p=1078

Silver has gone way passed our target of USD $44.80 for 2011 and this morning is pushing the USD $48 level! From the January 2011 TFP newsletter:
These high level trends are just a few reasons why gold and silver are so important to an investment portfolio over the next decade. There are NO major changes to the underlying fundamentals of this asset class and therefore we see the price of gold at USD $1880 and silver at USD $44.80 by the close of 2011. We also feel there is significant catapult potential around the areas discussed above that could push these prices even higher.
Current prices reflect a greater than 50% return since the beginning of 2011 and astonishingly close to 100% if you managed to catch it near the lows of the year. While we would normally expect a significant 10% - 20% price correction at any time, this situation is different. It is different simply because silver's all time high in the 1980s was USD ~$50 and some change - if it manages to surpass USD $51 the market will suddenly realize there is no ceiling or historical price cap halting future upward moves. As a result, this could take silver to USD $60 or $70 before a correction occurs. ]]> http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/04/breaking-silver-on-steroids/feed/ 0 Breaking: Bubble Blowing? http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/04/breaking-bubble-blowing/ http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/2011/04/breaking-bubble-blowing/#comments Thu, 07 Apr 2011 13:25:21 +0000 admin http://www.thefinancialpanner.com/?p=1057

This is starting to smell like the tech bubble! The sad thing is that most people will mistake it for just that. This is because most people don't understand monetary history and the fact that this isn't a metals or commodities bubble, it is a currency crash...

The recent tsunami in Japan was certainly an event of epic proportions and an amazing reminder of mother nature's power. As horrible of a tragedy as this was, it is difficult to begin to move past the death and devastation due to the critical nuclear situation in Fukushima. The Financial Panner certainly had early impressions as to the level of impact this situation would have on the current macro-economic environment. We took a pause, however, to fully assess the situation and ensure it was as dire as our initial gut check related. We believe the situation at Fukushima is similar to experiencing an accident in slow motion, and unless a true miracle occurs - for which we will be hoping - the end result could well be a significant portion of uninhabitable land mass in Japan. Additionally, it is possible, as time grinds on without the problem solved cumulative radiation could cause food contamination concerns here in the US. Finally, the overall financial impact of all of this could be dramatic on world financial markets which we believe would result in "All Systems Go" for Quantitative Easing 3.
