Gold Will Skyrocket

Gold (SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD)) is going to go up big time before this is over. We’re going to have turmoil in the financial markets in the next few years and gold (SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD)) will skyrocket. I am not buying gold now because I expect it go down first.

The Sanctions Against Russia Have Helped Russia

In many ways the sanctions against Russia have helped Russia. It has created an agricultural boom, as agriculture is a very strong growth industry right now. It also pushed the Russians together with the Asians and when you go through Moscow or St. Petersburg airport now the Asians are everywhere, (iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM), Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX))

The US Dollar Will Get Overpriced

People will be scared and the US Dollar will get overpriced and may even turn into a bubble before it's over but then when everybody starts saying, "wait a minute this is crazy", when they start looking at the real fundamental situation then they are going to dump their US dollars and we're going to have a gigantic gigantic crisis.

Why Russian Bonds Are So Attractive

The yields on the Russian government bonds are very high. An investor can get 10 percent in Ruble bonds and in my view the Russian Ruble has stabilized, so it’s a lot better than getting 2 percent in American government bonds.

Russian Agriculture Is Very Prosperous

Russian agriculture is prosperous because nobody can sell to them (due to the sanctions) and they can’t buy any agriculture products from us, so their agriculture is booming. (Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX))

The Federal Reserve Will Not Save The Market

What's going to happen is they're going to raise interest rates some more then when things start going really bad people will call them and say, "You must save us, the Western civilization is going to collapse" and the Federal Reserve who's made up of bureaucrats and politicians will do something, so they will try but it won't work, it would cause some rallies but it won't work this time.

US Economy: No Signs Of A Recession Yet

I don't see one at the moment but the problem is they always come when you're not expecting them. I would suspect during this year or next it's going to start somewhere that we're not watching. Whether it's Illinois, a pension plan or Madagascar who knows. It's going to start somewhere and then we'll know. But if you look out the window now, everything's great and that's a dangerous sign.

The Worst Market Crash In My Lifetime

In 2008 we had a problem because of debt, the debt in 2008 was nothing compared to what's happening now. In 2008 the Chinese had a lot of money saved for a rainy day. It started raining and they started spending the money.

Now even the Chinese have debt and the debt is so much higher. The Federal Reserve's balance sheet is up over five times since 2008. It will be the worst thing in my lifetime.

The Most Dangerous Words In The Investment World

You see throughout history all bubbles look the same, all market tops look the same, all credit tops look the same. You have to get the timing right of course, but when you see everybody buying X you have to start saying well, wait a minute, I've seen this before when you see everybody saying it's different this time but it's never different this time.

The most dangerous words in the investment world are it is different this time. It ain't ever different this time, you know. I'm not the first person to figure that out when you see on the radio or the TV or the internet that everybody is doing something I hope that a little bell goes off in your head and says well, maybe it is better to start thinking about going the other way.
