Sounds like someone trying to sell gold. I prefer to read this kind of stuff from people with no conflict of interest interest.

Another Kondratieff winter thread. Might also want to go through these 2 others.

--> Recent <--
--> From back in 2005 <--

It's also been discussed in other threads, too.

However, this particular guy is a fool if he's simultaneously announcing a Kondratieff winter and trying to sell gold. In a deflationary period such as a Kondratieff winter gold is not a good investment.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('cbxer55', 'T')his is it! Sounds familiar, does it not? Those were some of the last words of Leonardo DeCaprio, while clinging to the guardrail of the aft section of the HMS Titanic, as she was about to take the last plunge.
This article, gotten via the Denninger blog, goes a long way in explaining why what we are seeing today on the stock market, is exactly the same as three previous cycles. Only this one will be worse due to Alan Greenspan's monkeying around in the early 2000 time period. Because of him, things are gonna be a lot worse than they might have been had he left things alone.
It is a long read, but well worth it.
Enjoy.

Do read it in it's entirety. It is kinda rough for those not rooted in the stock market, but if I can glean some understanding from this, believe me, anyone can!

THIS IS IT!!!

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('cbxer55', ' ')Lay-offs at the completion of projects are common. So you save while you work for the eventuality of being let go. Then live on the savings while trying to find work. I am quite familiar with this gig.

Following your experience of the system, I would have thought you'd have adopted an attitude more tolerant of the working calss and less tolerant of the system. Interesting.
