Turning Hard Times Into Good Times

Peter Grandich was the least likely person to succeed on Wall Street. He never finished High School, never mind attend an Ivy League Wall Street factory. But using his street smarts, he made some brilliant market calls that won him fame. But fame hardly put him on “Easy Street.” Quite the contrary! Peter suffered a very serious bout of depression that nearly did him in. But through his trials he remained a shrewd market analyst and his personal pain has led him to attain a deep spiritual comfort that he is quite willing to share with everyone he meets, including a number of professional athletes he rubs shoulders with on a regular basis. Peter’s experience can be helpful to all of us as our nation faces some very serious financial problems in the months and years to come. On a more concrete basis, Larry Reaugh, President and CEO of American Manganese, will be with us again to update us on his company’s very impressive manganese mine being developed in Arizona.

Jack Crooks joins us for the first time this week. Most gold bugs are predicting the sudden and imminent collapse of the dollar. But insights from Bob Hoye suggest that isn’t likely to happen while the credit system contracts. Jack Crooks, a currency expert for the Weiss organization, is predicting that the dollar has likely bottomed for the foreseeable future. We will ask Jack why he is predicting that and what that will mean for our investments in general. Also joining me this week will be Phillip Walford, President and CEO of Marathon Gold Corp.

Realtor, Kathy Fettke returns. In their efforts to keep markets from working and line their pockets, the boys at Goldman Sachs are seeking another gift from the American common folks. This time it’s in the housing industry where they hope to use their influence in Washington to obtain the lion’s share of distressed mortgages from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac at bargain basement prices. Kathy Fettke will explain how this monopoly will again hurt average Americans and result in another windfall for Goldman Sachs. Ms. Fettke will also discuss the distressed housing market in general. Also expected this week will be Ron Paul’s Chief of Staff, Jeff Deist. We will ask him about Kathy’s concerns and a host of other government policies as well as his bosses’ campaign for President. Also William C. Howald, Pres. and CEO of Rye Patch Patch Gold Corp. will talk about his company's 3.1 million oz. gold resource and it potential to grow much larger.

John Perkins returns. He desires a more fair form of capitalism. He applauds Occupy Wall Street, a “Robin Hood Economic” advocacy. Can taxing the rich achieve egalitarian income distribution without destroying liberty and prosperity? Can a change of the human heart be achieved so that we humans forgo greed in favor of altruism? What historical evidence suggests that is possible? Parasitic bankers and politicians began to prosper at the expense of average Americans after 1971 when Nixon took us off the gold standard. Could a return to an honest, asset-based monetary system restore a more egalitarian society and one that is based on merit rather than political and/or industry affiliation? Does he realize that a gold-backed monetary system would make it far more difficult for the U.S. to engage in the foreign wars he is so critical of? This week I will also interview one of my favorite junior gold exploration stocks, namely Merrex Gold Inc., and a new prospect, Meadow Bay Gold Corp.

Adrian Day joins us for a second time. His book titled “Investing in Resources” lays out some very promising ways to profit from commodities at a time when a major portion of the world’s population is achieving middle class status. With it comes expectations for modern conveniences and a lifestyle that demands much higher per capita consumption of energy and the world’s materials in general. Against that major trend, however, is the current massive deleveraging of debt mostly from the developed world. How will this shake out and in the process and how can we make money investing in resources? Adrian Day will be with me to discuss this issue. Also Cathy Fong, of Lucky Strike Resources with a ½ billion tonne coal resource will join me. Visions of coal turned into numerous commodities such as diesel fuel, natural gas, urea and ammonia will be discussed. The show will be aired from Zurich, Switzerland so I may have a surprise guest or two and/or my partners Roger Wiegand and Chen Lin.

Mish Shedlock returns to update us on his deflation views. In 2002 after the Greenspan-induced dot com bubble collapsed, many worried that the U.S. could suffer a Japanese style deflation. That’s when Ben Bernanke wrote a paper titled “Deflation: Making Sure It Doesn’t Happen Here.” He reasoned that massive amounts of money creation helicoptered over American would avoid deflation. Nine years and trillions of dollars later, factoring in actual inflation, we still have virtually zero real economic growth. Unemployment remains high and interest rates are suggesting future deflation. Has Bernanke been successful in avoiding deflation or is he digging an even deeper deflationary hole? We’ll ask Mish Shedlock. As the real price of gold continues to climb we are in the bull market of a lifetime. Joining us to help us capitalize on this gold bull market of a lifetime will be Marcy Kiesman of Atocha Resources, Gregory Beischer of Millrock Resources and Ingrid Hibbard of Pelangio Exploration.

Petroleum geologist Patrick Laracy of Vulcan Minerals talks of the abundance of shale gas in the U.S. that is more significant than all the oil of Saudia Arabia. What are the possibilities of using natural gas for all manner of America’s energy needs and how might that boost our economy? Despite all the recent problems in Japan related to that country’s natural disaster, nuclear power provides one of the safest if not the safest form of abundant energy. How are some ways to play both natural gas and nuclear power? And what are some of the hugely undervalued oil and gas companies around the world that can richly reward investors? Chen Lin will stop by to give us a couple of his favorite energy picks. Not to ignore the importance of gold, Brian Kirwin, of American Bonanza Gold Corp.will talk about their start up mine in Arizona and Ingrid Hibbard of Pelangio Exploration will explain that company's exciting projects in Ghana, West Africa.

Ron Paul is the only Presidential candidate to understand what the root cause of America’s current economic and moral depression is. Pres. Eisenhower warned of the military industrial complex (MIC). Kennedy warned of the dangers of secret societies to a free society. Paying no attention to either, Pres. Nixon funded the MIC and the most secret of the institutions, the Fed, by unilaterally detaching gold from the dollar, thus enabling the Fed to provide endless debt to fund military intrusions into over 100 countries. The result now is American economic fascism and a loss of personal liberty, which both Eisenhower and Kennedy warned against. Today we play speeches from Eisenhower, Kennedy and Nixon and Ron Paul’s comments in a recent National Press Club appearance to relate how Nixon’s empowerment of the Fed served to defy Eisenhower and Kennedy. Also appearing this week for the first time is Richard Williams, CEO & Director of a very promising junior gold company, Helio Resources.

Ron Hera appears in my show for the first time this week to talk about the state of Utah reasserting its constitutional right to issue money and the recent passage of its Legal Tender Act, which authorizes the use of federally-minted gold and silver coins as Money in the State of Utah. We will ask Ron to explain the connection between the massive impoverishment of average Americans and a very small minority of Americans, mostly in the banking industry and in government, who are gaining at the expense of the middle class. Is the move by Utah a step in the right direction? What other states are on the verge of replicating the Utah act? Can the “Occupy Wall Street” and the Tea Party movements play a constructive role in restoring America on the path our Founding Fathers set out for us? Also joining us will be Ron Perry of Metanor Resources Inc. to talk about that company's progress toward gold production in Quebec.

Top analyst Ian McAvity of Wall Street Week fame is back with his insights into the global equity, debt, commodity and precious metals markets. How did our policy makers get us into such trouble? How close are we to a cataclysmic decline that could take us down as hard as or harder than the Great Depression took our grandparents down in the 1930s? How will this Federal Reserve Bank induced mess play out? Will it be resolved through the fires of hyper inflation or through the deflationary deep freeze colder and longer lasting that that of the 1930s? What about gold and gold mining in this environment? Why have the gold shares not participated in the rise of gold to $1,900? Is the recent decline in the gold price an indication that the bull market is over? Applying theory to making money, Richard Sutcliffe of Auriga Gold Corp will be with us. And a very successful and energetic Cathy Fong, the CEO of Lucky Strike Resources, a Mongolian coal exploration company, will be joining us.

Florian Siegfried is a money manager for Precious Capital Ltd., in Zurich, Switzerland. As a follower of Austrian economics he has been remarkably successful in picking junior gold mining stocks. However, his bullish views on gold shares are based more on his views that we are most likely heading for a deflationary depression and not the kind of hyper inflation that most gold bugs believe is the inevitable outcome of endless amounts of “printing press” money. We will ask him to present his case for a deflationary depression and perhaps pass along a couple of his favorite stocks. Speaking of favorite stocks, the CEOs of two very promising gold mining firms will also appear. Gregory Isenor of Merrex Gold Inc. as well as Scott Waldie of Legend Gold Corp. will be my guests. Both companies have the potential to outline multi-million oz. gold deposits in Mali, West Africa. Time permitting, Chen Lin and Roger Wiegand will also join me.
