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.

Tiff Macklem and his colleagues at the Bank of Canada did […]

March 12, 2025 | Gold Porn, Part 2: It’s a Real Bull Market
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.

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.

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 5, 2025 | Significant Decline in Crude Oil has Triggered a New Buy Signal
President Trump teased the markets last week with misdirection of when he planned to put on his tariffs.

I have been stating all along all of my sources say the same thing. Zelensky is just a puppet of the Neocons. He takes his orders from them and they do not want peace. They have invested so much into this war to conquer Russia that they are not about to walk away. I said […]
