It depends on your definition of "recent". Gold has rallied up from 1130 last December.

Hmm. I usually like this guy's articles, but on this occasion I don't agree with the logic behind what he's saying, nor do I see it ring true when I look at charts. His premise is based on the old (and disproven) saying that "dumb money opens the ...

No, more likely he's been hired as an investment analyst for some mainstream news network.

Neither am I - I agree retraining should be made accessible to anyone who wants it, though who pays for it is a thorny question. The problem is that there just won't be the jobs for those people, no matter how much training they receive. Not only ...

Retraining? As what? The article correctly talks about even the few remaining low-skilled jobs becoming subject to "credential inflation", requiring a 4 year college degree. And that too is an existing trend that's been gaining pace for the last ...

And at some point there could be a much bigger tsunami, as millions of displaced & jobless workers revolt and start destroying the robots that have taken away their careers. When I was a kid I always viewed technology as something that would improve ...

The Fed may hike in the face of this, they may not. Because inflation isn't the whole picture, they also need to consider the continuing decline in real wages. This isn't the "healthy" inflation that accompanies rising wages due to true full ...

Even though at the moment I'm not invested in Bitcoin, I too hope it succeeds - though I see a long period of turmoil and volatility as it finds its place in the world relative to other currencies, commodities and PMs. I do think that in order to ...

I didn't say it was. If you take the trouble of reading my comment properly, you'll see I compared Bitcoin to fiat currencies because neither are backed by anything real. The only reason any currency, including Bitcoin, has any worth is because ...

It doesn't make sense to a lot of people, and that should be a source of concern to those who think its the best thing since sliced bread. Its like any fiat currency, its only worth something because people believe it is - its not backed by anything ...

Well, before you believe it on the basis that an ex-intelligence officer allegedly prepared it, there's several factors you need to take into account:- - This story and the idea of leaking it to Rick Wilson as a joke was discussed on 4chan back in ...

Wow, here's someone else who can read a chart. Give that man a Business Insider job!

Yeah, wouldn't it be nice to get paid just to watch a chart & post obvious news on what its doing?

The currency will go where-ever the banks want to push it. Apart from that, logic says bullish but that depends on the chances of the brexit bill getting through parliament, where as I understand it (I could be wrong) only the house of lords could ...

If he did that on election day he'd be neck-deep in profit right now. Meanwhile a trump shorter would have lost his shirt.

You really have drunk the cool-aid haven't you No need for verification, in barkie's version of reality if its anti-Trump then its automatically true.

4chan claims they fabricated the whole thing back in October to punk #nevertrumpers, and they're surprised how far its gone. url

You're probably saying that tongue-in-cheek, but regardless its incorrect. None of the US intelligence agencies said the voting was hacked. What they allege is that russia hacked the DNC to get emails which were then passed to Wikileaks. And nobody ...

Actually Rodd Perot noticed back in 1992:- "We have got to stop sending jobs overseas. It's pretty simple: If you're paying $12, $13, $14 an hour for factory workers and you can move your factory south of the border, pay a dollar an hour for labor ...
