heres a bone http://themessthatgreenspanmade.blogspot.com/2005/11/m3-moneyness-and-conspiracy-theories.html

clearly i disagree with the blogger's and prudent bear doug noland's views in 'a quickie on money', other than the fact that M3 was useless anyway... prudent bear's a fun read though...

if u can't see the flaws in j.williams' simplistic reasoning / thesis, its gonna take more than a few links matey... sorry, better things to do with my time... plus as globalfinancier aptly said, as far as trading, what really matters is what the mkt is doing... no point in being 'right' but broke ;-) am just calling the bs here... but dont lose sleep over it

2cents. What a fitting handle.

Quote from The Kin2:

Question...

Why are banks and bondholders settling on negative real returns? Interest rates on loans should be higher to compensate for inflation.

this thread is fun!

lemme suggest, 2 possibilities:
. either THEY are the bozos and thats why they aint got all their eggs in metals yet like the smart guys, or
. the guys like j.williams and his followers ARE the bozos... but luckily they've got a good chunk of dough invested in metals for when fiat money becomes worthless and the Arcturians come to take over our planet...
