  • Four Ways to Protect Money During the Fallout
    How about a new rule on SA: no one is allowed to post an "OMGZ it's DEFLATION!!!111one&quo... post or article unless he or she has at least 50% of his or her net worth in gold puts dated no earlier than 2010. If "deflation" is such a slam dunk you should turn at least a 5x profit on such a position without taking any risk at all.

    In fact all of you deflationistas are committing both of the cardinal sins: you are arguing with the tape and you are fighting the Fed. So put your money where your mouth is or shut up. The author is largely correct although I would not bother with stocks at all and would instead short the Long Bond for the perfect hyperinflationary duo.

  • Gold's Golden Run All Set to Continue
    Ant1967, "investing" in gold makes no sense. Exactly how is gold going to generate income? It doesn't make anything or do anything. You can't eat it, drink it, or build a house out of it. Therefore gold is not an investment at all, except perhaps if you own a bullion bank.

    As J. P. Morgan himself said, gold is money. When you don't want to invest in equity and real interest rates on debt are negative, you should convert most of your assets into gold and sit on it until something changes. But don't confuse sitting on a metal brick with investing; everyone holding gold (including me) is either sitting on the sidelines in our preferred form of cash or speculating. Nothing wrong with that, but it's critical that you never confuse them. There is a time to invest, a time to speculate, and a time to sit in cash. Don't fall in love with your "investment" any more than you would a $100 bill. Yes, it's better at being money than the paper, but it's no better an investment.
