A Big Day For NYSE In The 1960`s

When I went to Wall Street in the sixties, a big day for the NYSE was 3 million shares. I mean, that is not even a trade trade these days, not even a trade before breakfast.

What Leads To Wars

Through out history when you have shortages of raw materials, especially food, it almost led to war. Whenever you have a dominant power, which is stagnating and going into decline, and then rising powers, they have always clashed.

If you look at the recent decade or so, you can see that it`s a lot like the period between 1900 and 1914.

Radioactivity Is Now Spreading Around The Pacific: Impacts On The Fish Markets

Maybe fish could be an alternative because it turns out that the Pacific is becoming extraordinarily damaged, polluted. The nuclear explosion in Japan and the water, all that radioactivity is now spreading around the Pacific and so all fish is in my mind suspect, or certainly it will be suspect.

So if you have a pan full of fish that is not radioactive, chances are you are going to make a lot of money.

Sugar Is 75 Percent Below All Time Highs

The all time high on Sugar was 66 cents, so it`s down 75 percent. That`s just in nominal terms. There`s not much in the world that it`s down 75 percent cheaper that what it was 37 years ago. Sugar is one of those things.

I Am Not Optimistic About Gold

I am not optimistic about gold at the moment because what is happening in India is possibly going to ruin the gold market for a while. If I can stay solvent, and alert, maybe that will lead to a huge buying opportunity in gold again.

India is the largest buyer of gold in the world, has been until recently, now China is eclipsing them because India is cutting back. The indian government is blaming all of its problems on gold, they do not take responsibility, no politician ever has. So they put some tariffs, doing their best to make it impossible to import gold.

I Am Not Shorting Stock Markets Anywhere

I am not shorting stock markets anywhere because nobody has any constraints anymore. There is no such thing as sound economics anymore.

This Has Always Led To A Disaster For A Country

People who saved their money, invested, did not buy 4 houses with no money down and no job. These people are being wiped out at the expense of the people who did.

And the reason is, there are more of them, than people who save and invest. Historically this has always led to a disaster for a country. You wipe out the people who save and invest and your country becomes a basket case.

Very Few Americans Know What Quantitative Easing Is

It`s pretty astonishing to me, there was a poll done recently, and very few americans even know what Quantitative Easing is. Very few americans have any clue about the debt situation. They just don`t know. So in circumstances like that, it`s fairly easy, if someone goes on TV with a nice suit, a nice hair cut and says "The sky is blue." Well, everybody says, my goodness, the sky is blue. They don`t even bother going to look out the window to see if its blue.

Every Major Central Bank Is Debasing Currency

This is the first time that I know of, in recorded history, when every major central bank is printing money at the same time and trying to debase their currency. In the thirties, we had beggar-thy-neighbor policies but those were mainly tariffs and controls.

This time everybody is printing money, I don`t think this has ever happened in recorded history.

Buy Shares In Farm Equipment, Fertilizer And Seed Companies Around The World

Buy shares in farms, farm equipment, fertilizer and seed companies that trade on exchanges around the world. Stock markets in agriculture-producing countries should do better than those in agriculture-importing ones. Retailers, restaurants, banks in agricultural areas will do well.

Gold Market Outlook

I know of nothing that has gone up for 12 years without a decline but I would also expect the correction to be different from normal. I am expecting another buying opportunity for gold in the next year or two and it will eventually go well over 2,000 dollars/ounce.

Agriculture: Prices Have To Go Higher To Attract Labor, Capital

The average farmer is 58 in the U.S. and Australia, 66 in Japan. Old farmers are dying or retiring, and young people aren't going into agriculture. Young Americans go into PR, not agriculture. Prices have to go much higher to attract labor, management, capital or we're not going to have enough food in the long run.

When I Was Selling My New York House, I Almost Backed Out

When I was selling my New York house, I almost backed out; I just couldn't bear the thought of leaving. But now I'm very happy here. I fly to New York and I realize I'm in a Third World airport. Then I get into a Third World taxi onto a Third World highway. The difference now just slaps me in the face. New York is a wonderful place, with the people and the vibrancy, but I can find the same vibrancy, if not more, in Asia.
