Can Anyone Match Stathis' Track Record and Insights?  The answer to that question is a definitive NO.   Mike Stathis is the top investment mind in the world. And we stand by that claim. See here for some evidence.  Moreover, we are willing to back this claim by a $1 million guarantee. 

Gold bugs and dealers alike have pumped out so many misconceptions and flat out lies about gold, silver, and the economy that it would be impossible for me to set the story straight in a single article; that's saying a lot considering the fact that my articles tend to be rather lengthy. However, I have previously written several articles that address the majority of the most common of these myths and lies (check the end of this article for a partial list). If you have been sucked into the vortex of lies from these charlatans, you could stand to lose a HUGE amount of money over the next several years as the gold bull market comes to an end.  And if you really think gold will never again fall below $1000 as Marc Faber the gold-pumping clown has "guaranteed," I regret...

Recently the financial media has been issuing all kinds of statements about the emerging markets in order to create drama and panic.  Does this behavior seem familiar? The financial media is always trying to create some kind of smoke and mirrors drama to get suckers hooked into their programming content so they can sell ads.

In past issues of this publication we have discussed numerous variables we look at when forecasting the market. Our work in market forecasting is but one component of the design and implementation of a prudent investment strategy.

Today we look at the promotion of fear-mongering con man Doug Casey by the fake news blog known as Zero Hedge.  This exercise is being performed in order to highlight two important learn points pertaining to media deception and fraud. Before I begin, keep in mind that Casey hasn't written anything for years. His team of copywriting cons do all of the writing for him.  By focusing on Zero Hedge we will demonstrate the most common mechanism by which fake news and scams are now being disseminated on the internet. And by focusing on the piece from Doug Casey published by Zero Hedge, we will demonstrate the severity of the financial/investment related fake news and scams that continue to flood the internet.    As a reminder, I exposed Zero Hedge many years ago. Fo...

Before I begin, I will tell you this with complete confidence. If you see anyone in the media frequently, you won’t even need to waste your time checking to determine whether you can trust them because I will personally guarantee you that they either have no credibility, or else blowing hot air.

As promised, this is the first of a 3-part video series exposing Chris Duane.

In the November 2010 issue of the Intelligent Investor newsletter, our Chief Investment and Trading Strategist, Mike Stathis added Atheros Communications (ATHR) to his recommended list. At that time, shares were selling for around $32. In December, Mike reiterated his bullish sentiment for ATHR. Most investors hadn’t heard much about ATHR. This is a company that managed to keep a relatively low profile over the years, although it had quickly emerged as a leader in Wi-Fi devices. Mike had been following ATHR for over five years and knew the company well. During that period, he had traded in and out of the stock. In November 2010, Mike made the call to get back in again. The following month, Qualcomm (QCOM) announced an all-cash buyout, valuing ATHR at just under......

When one draws comparisons between the California Gold Rush of the mid-1800s to the current gold craze, the similarities are striking.     "Many, very many, that come here meet with bad success & thousands will leave their bones here. Others will lose their health, contract diseases that they will carry to their graves with them. Some will have to beg their way home, & probably one half that come here will never make enough to carry them back. But this does not alter the fact about the gold being plenty here, but shows what a poor frail being man is, how liable to disappointments, disease & death. There is a good deal of sin & wickedness going on here, Stealing, lying, Swearing, Drinking, Gambling & murdering. There is a great deal of gambling carri...

The following report was released on June 10th as a follow-up to subscribers to the June newsletter.    

It is not my intention to get anyone to buy or sell Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) or XM Satellite Radio (XMSR). It is only my intention to help investors understand the full picture regarding the risks to satellite radio. Up to this point, I feel Wall Street has presented the only positive picture. In response, I have offered what I feel to be the missing piece to the puzzle. After considering both sides, it is up to you to determine what to do. Those who get upset and make personal attacks are only confirming the insecurities underlying their investment decisions. Typically, when a person has few investment ideas or capital, they tend to focus on the noise surrounding one or two investments they hope will make them rich, wasting several years of their lives to no avail, while better opp...

You might recall an article I wrote a few years ago addressing John Williams, his hyperinflation lunacy and manipulation of the gold market by hacks like Williams.  Dismantling John Williams' Hyperinflation Predictions The analysis was so compelling even Kitco's senior gold analyst made a point to reach out and congratulate me on my work.   Imagine that. The senior analyst for a gold company making applauding my analysis exposing the gold pumping scene.   Kitco Senior Gold Analyst Agrees with My Views on Gold Although I intended to blast Williams a few years earlier than 2011, I simply had no time. Even still, the release of this landmark article positioned me as at least the first if not the only person in the world to have irrefutibly debunked Williams and his ri...

Listen as this average Joe tells his story about Mike Maloney. Unfortunately, his situation is representative of millions of others just like him who have been fed a bag of lies by gold and silver dealers.

As many of you know, the media black-balled me and continues to today for a very good reason. They are protecting the agendas of their financial sponsors – the financial industry and corporate America, despite the fact that there are not even five individuals who collectively can match my track record. In the future, I will continue to provide examples of just how reckless the media hacks are. It should be a criminal offense for the media to air some of these guys, especially when the media positions them as experts.   

I began my mission helping investors steer clear of Wall Street because I learned firsthand how the game was played after having worked in the industry.  Thereafter, I learned how the media helps Wall Street after I was black balled by all media in 2006 and thereafter for trying to warn main street about what would become an unprecedented financial crisis in 2008.  My mission has been to help investors become more knowledgeable and successful by providing cutting-edge investment research as well as top-notch educational content. I think I've done quite well in that regard.  As a part of this mission, I have also spent a great deal of time and effort exposing the criminal activities of the financial media, as it works with Wall Street to deceive and defraud main str......

No one knows where gold, silver, the stock market or anything else is headed for sure. But one thing level-headed people know for certain... The worst people to seek for guidance and forecasts on gold, silver, stocks, bonds, real estate or any other asset are from those who sell them or get paid to promote them.     With the exception of the precious metals industry, the public marketplaces, exchanges or other venues that enable individuals to buy and sell most asset classes like publicly traded securities (stocks and bonds) and real estate are regulated. That means there is some level of accountability that exists because regulators police the system. If a stock broker or real estate agent screws you, there are many avenues available to the victim to seek justice. Thi......

Previously, I published an article illustrating how Greg Zuckerman, author of a book that praised Paulson as some investment God, has lost all credibility as a journalist now that the facts have surfaced about how Paulson made his big score. Have a look. Next, I published a piece showing how Zuckerman went into damage control mode, after the SEC released its complaint alledging fraud against Goldman Sachs, while mysteriously absolving Paulson of any wrongdoing. He wrote a piece that still claimed it was a "bet" rather than fraud. Have a look.   I wanted to publish an email I sent to a reporter from the Slate, an online “news” site owned by the Washington Post.    In the past, I have discussed how many newspapers have start...

The Savings & Loan Crisis had Michael Milken. The dotcom charade had Bernie Ebbers, Kenneth Lay, and Jeffery Skilling. These men have been selected as the scapegoats to distract the public away from the real criminals that caused each crisis. And now, the world’s largest real estate and banking crisis – much larger than all previous heists combined – has Bernie Madoff. He will serve the same purpose. Michael Milken was certainly involved in the S&L crisis, but he wasn’t the only villain. After only serving a couple of years (for good behavior) at Club Fed, he returned to society a very wealthy man. What other type of behavior besides “good” is possible at Club Fed? Milken was certainly a scapegoat of the S&L crisis, but he certainly was...
