March 17, 2025 | The MSM Discovers Copper

Copper has had a quietly impressive run so far in 2025. But much more is coming as mainstream investors tune into the story. Consider this, from NPR of all places: Forget about rare earth minerals. We need more copper (NPR) – In recent weeks, you’ve likely heard a lot about rare-earth substances, thanks to President Trump’s stalled […]

March 16, 2025 | One Last Melt-Up?

Will there be one last melt-up before this doddering bull market seeks penance?  Some of my fellow gurus believe a final show of bravado is coming, especially those who base their predictions on Elliott Wave Theory. I think the party is over, but I’m forced to admit that if too many traders agree with me, […]

March 14, 2025 | Civil War in the UK?

I just watched a disturbingly plausible video about the rising odds of a UK civil war. The source is David Betz, a professor of “war in the modern world” at King’s College, London. He recently published an article titled Civil War Comes to the West in Military Strategy Magazine, in which he claimed that multiculturalism and mass immigration […]

March 14, 2025 | Interest Rate Cuts Won’t Be Enough To Save The Canadian Economy

Canadian central bankers cut their official rate by ¼ of a percent on Wednesday this week. But that won’t be enough to boost the economy in the face of higher tariffs and repeated threats from the U.S. President. How bad will the downturn get? Tiff Macklem and his colleagues at the Bank of Canada did […]

March 13, 2025 | WTI Prices Lift As US Consumption Rises 5.1% Last Week.

President Trump freaked out stock markets with his on-off switch of new tariffs and threats against the US’s key trading partners. Canada is getting the brunt of these social media attacks. Trump threatens, then trade negotiators from both sides get to work on the details and persuade Trump to relent and there are reverses in […]

Gold (and now silver) are starting to do things not seen for over a decade. And the resulting charts are just gorgeous. Some recent examples: Foreign central banks are moving out of US Treasuries and into gold: Overindebted countries are cranking the money printing up to panic levels: Gold and silver are responding with identical […]

March 11, 2025 | Canada & the 51st State

  QUESTION: Hi Marty, Many in Canada seem to be taking President Donald Trump’s talk about making Canada the 51st US state seriously. We have Canadian leaders claiming it is a serious threat and part of a plan. “President Trump wants to put us into a state where we are much more weakened economically in order […]

  Sunnova Energy, a solar panel company based in Texas, has filed for bankruptcy. It is not shocking for a solar panel company to go under as the demand is simply not there. Upfront costs could range into tens of thousands and it takes years to see actual savings. The Biden Administration spent more than […]

March 9, 2025 | It’s All About Buying Those Dips

I’ve written here before about how the broad averages have struggled to go lower during what could turn out to be the initial phase of a bear market. Many traders, particularly greenhorns too young to have never experienced a bear market, appear to be buying each step of the way down. They could do so […]

March 8, 2025 | Rhyming History: The 1990s Dot-Com Bubble

After World War II, the US and its allies were worried about staying in touch during a nuclear war. So they (I’m vastly over-simplifying here) created networking protocols and tools that eventually became the Internet. At first, these links were limited to scientists and the military. But as the tech was refined, it became clear […]

March 7, 2025 | President Trump is Demanding More Defense Spending from NATO Countries

President Trump mused recently that NATO members should be spending 5 percent of their GDP on defense. This new goal is a large increase from the current target of 2 percent of GDP.
