The housing market is not driven by low interest rates. It is driven by immigration population growth.

I like the line I heard on with Kudlow and Kramer on MSNBC -

"today, USA, Inc. was forced to restate growth for the past 4 quarters..."

The markets and the public are going to need something to distract them and perhaps a war will do just that.

Listen to the drumbeats of war. That tells be the economy is weak and there is no real recovery in sight.

Gold is falling like a rock again today. Just like last week when there was major interventions in the markets. Humm.

Once these excesses have been taken out, and gold has been transferred from weak to stronger hands, the stage is set for the next advance of what I believe will be a decade-long bull market.

IMHO this is pure speculation, the trend for gold is still down and this action looks like a typical bear market rally. The real economic enemy is not inflation, but deflation and gold is acting as it should in deflationary times. Gold should not be purchased for investment purposes but as a store of wealth in times of crisis.

I've never seen so many "experts" in one place in my life. Very impressive!
