All Bull Markets Have Periods of Correction

“Commodities have pulled back, but I would remind you that in all bull markets there are periods of correction. In 1987 – during the great bull market in stocks – stocks went down 40 to 80 per cent around the world; again in 1989, 1990, 1994, etc. Every time people said the bull market’s over, but it wasn’t. I think that’s what’s happening with commodities now.”

Buy Base Metals for Protection Against Inflation

I would rather buy base metals now than gold. Base metals are down substantially. Some of the money printing is working its way into the economy. Some of that money would go into base metals as a protection against inflation. I would much rather buy base metals than precious metals.

U.S. Debt And The Lessons Of History

I keep going back to what happened throughout history. If you do not understand history you are going to suffer. And throughout history every country that has gotten itself into this kind of situation had problems and they have not gotten out of the situation without a crisis or a semi-crisis.

Gold Peculiar Rise And Correction

Gold went up for 12 years in a row. I have never seen any asset in history go up 12 years without a down year. There may be some, I just don`t know about it. So gold had a peculiar rise, so I would suspect that the correction, which we are in now and have been for many months, will be an anomaly as well.

America`s Gold Reserve: I Don't Know If It's There
