Fiat Currency Going To Its Intrinsic Value
Those invested in gold or other precious metals were slaughtered in the last two trading days. Although the pain of their losses is likely not to be eased by the chart that follows, it does show the validity of gold as a long-term strategy.

David Stockman Alienates Both Ends of The Political Spectrum
David Stockman wrote an intriguing article which appeared in the NY Times.
