Crude rallied during October reaching the $52 level. Yet for the close, it crashed and burned on the last day to AVOID a buy signal at $49.35 level.

Analysts v News Chasers

October 25, 2016

QUESTION: I am beginning to see the light. It seems as though when gold rallies strong, the sentiment is reflected in these gold promoters. Then gold drops and they preach the same thing again.

Why Corporations Die

October 5, 2016

August 10, 2016

QUESTION: What do you think of value investing? Bob ANSWER: As with everything, a cycle that you have to understand will unfold.

The Mechanism Behind the Rise & Fall of Nations

August 8, 2016
