Americans Can Still Benefit from Tax Havens

By Nick Giambruno, Senior Editor, International Man

“In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.”
–Benjamin Franklin

You are technically a slave when 100% of the fruits of your labor is taxed or otherwise confiscated by force. So, at what percentage are you not a slave?

When you consider the totality of the countless direct and indirect taxes on the local, state, and federal levels, as well as the pernicious effects of inflation, the hidden tax, many of us are at least halfway to 100%. Continue reading "Americans Can Still Benefit from Tax Havens"

Gold Futures

Gold futures are trading above their 20 day but slightly below its 100 day moving average hitting a 2 month high as investors came back into the precious metal as the stock market suffered sharply lower losses in the last couple of days. The Dow Jones is down 250 points this Friday as investors are putting money back in the bond and gold markets in recent weeks. I’m recommending sitting on the sidelines in gold as I think the trend is higher but we will see some choppiness especially if the stock market starts to reverse and head back up which in my opinion it will do as the selloff is blamed on emerging market weakness spooking investors in the last couple of days.

Gold Up, Stocks Down

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Friday, the 24th of January.

Today I'm going to take another look at gold, as it appears as though we are seeing a rotation out of stocks and into this precious metal. Ten days ago, I wrote a special report on gold, which you can see here.

As we started the new year, 2014 seemed to have a distinct different vibe to it compared to 2013. Last year was obviously a great year for buying and holding onto stocks, 2014 may be cut from a different swath of cloth. Markets change and you have to be able and willing to change with them.

This is a very short video looking at spot gold and the SPDR Gold Shares ETF (PACF:GLD). I hope you learn from the video and take away some valuable knowledge that can help you in the markets.

Every success with MarketClub,

Get Positioned Now for the Next Great Natural Gas Switch

The Energy Report: Ron, welcome. You are making a presentation at the Money-Show conference in Orlando in late January. What is the gist of your presentation?

Ron Muhlenkamp: The gist of my presentation is that natural gas has become an energy game changer in the U.S. We are cutting the cost of energy in half. This has already happened for homeowners like me who heat their homes with natural gas. We think the next up to benefit is probably the transportation sector.

TER: What is behind this game change? Continue reading "Get Positioned Now for the Next Great Natural Gas Switch"

Just Like The Weather, Markets Change

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, President of INO.com and co-creator of MarketClub, with your video update for Thursday, the 23rd of January.

The DOW Is Lower On The Week

Today's market is a reality check for many traders who just finished digging out from the new mini ice age we are witnessing here in the East (what ever happened to global warming?), as they returned to their trading desks in full force today. Today we witnessed the weekly Trade Triangle turn red for the DOW, which could be a harbinger of things to come.

Gold Is Higher On The Week

In contrast to the indices moving lower, gold prices are once again attracting attention and trending higher. Many investors are adding a little more of the precious metal to their portfolios. Also, this metal could be on the cusp of a major acceleration and I will explain what I mean in today's video. Continue reading "Just Like The Weather, Markets Change"
