The Curious Case of Stock Market Denial (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hope springs eternally on the stock market. Despite the sharp spike in long-term US Treasury bond yields to multi-decade highs, the stock market seems to party regardless. All the main stock market indices are close to record highs, and equity valuations remain at unusually lofty levels. This suggests that the stock market is operating on two mistaken premises. The first is that the current spike in long-term interest rates will be short-lived. The second is that at a time of the artificial inte
The Bull Case for Gold (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Seldom before have the stars aligned themselves as well for gold’s longer-run price outlook as they have today.

Read excerpt
“Cometh the hour, cometh the man” is an old English proverb meaning that when a situation demands it, the right person will appear to deal with it. If ever an hour demanded courage from the Federal Reserve’s chair, it must be now, at a time when the US bond market is coming unstuck, a widening Middle East war is adding fuel to inflation, and President Trump continues his assaults on the Fed’s independence. At next week’s scheduled Federal Open Market Committee meeting, we will get a good idea as
