Vicious Money Printing Cycle = Junior Resource Stocks

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:36 AM on Thursday, January 13th, 2011

“Quote the chairman: “This fear of inflation is way overstated. We’ve looked at it very, very carefully. We’ve analyzed it every which way… We will not allow inflation to rise above 2% or less… I am 100% certain i can control inflation.” Presenting the Jefferies global commodity index (CRB) which just hit a 27 month high.” Tyler Durden – Zero Hedge

The downside to printing money for the purposes of stimulating the economy is that commodities rise, which makes things more expensive, which leaves people less money to stimulate the economy.  Nonetheless, Ben Bernanke and The US Fed continue to claim inflation is under control.  The data below clearly shows otherwise.

American disposable income is getting chiseled away at the gas pump and grocery store.  Their pocket books don’t lie and they certainly won’t stimulate the economy by purchasing real estate and “stuff”.  The ironic thing is that Bernanke will use the lack of consumer spending as a reason to keep printing money, which will lead to further inflation, which will lead to decreasing discretionary spending, which will lead to further deferral of “the recovery”, which will lead to more money being printed.

The answer to staying out of the vicious circle?  Gold, Silver, Junior Resource Stocks.

8:00 PM EST – AGORACOM Now Back Up And Running

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:00 PM on Saturday, January 8th, 2011

Good evening to you all. As many of you have noticed, the main AGORACOM site was down for most of the day today. We switched the front page to our blog, which runs off a different set of servers for precisely this reason, to keep you updated.

What happened? The technical explanation is that our Server cluster at Amazon had a few problems that started at approximately 3AM EST. After initial efforts to restore the cluster were unsuccessful. we had to take the system offline to rectify the issue.

The layman’s explanation … there was a glitch at Amazon. Yes, THE Amazon.com that you’ve been buying books and movies from since the birth of e-commerce. We host AGORACOM on their infrastructure because they are one of the few providers able to handle our traffic and database.

Unfortunately, today was not one of their better days.  It appears we are missing posts from Friday, January 7th. We are investigating this.  Fortunately, Amazon tech support worked with our techs to solve the problem.

Otherwise, all is well that ends well, especially when it happens on a Saturday when we should be enjoying our friends and families.

Thanks again to everyone for your e-mail notifications and sorry for any inconvenience.

Regards, George et al.
