Keynesian Value Destruction | |
Alasdair Macleod, Quinton Hennigh and Michael Oliver return as guests this week. About the time President Nixon detached gold from the international monetary system on August 15, 1971, he declared that “We are all Keynesians now!” That acceptance of the Keynesian economic religion by President Nixon, subsequent American presidents, and 99% of the American economic intelligentsia sealed the devastating financial market disasters that now lie ahead of America and the Western world. Alasdair will help us understand the connection between Keynesian economics and the massive value destruction that Keynesian lies have resulted in and hopefully provide some guidance about how we, as individuals, can prepare for what is about to unfold. Eloro Resources’ Iska Iska is being revealed now as a potential multi-billion-ounce, silver-equivalent discovery in Bolivia (the deposit is silver and tin rich). Quinton will update investors on the progress Eloro is making at Iska Iska. Michael will provide his usual prescient view on key markets. | |

J. Michael Oliver entered the financial services industry in 1975 on the Futures side, joining E.F. Hutton’s International Commodity Division, NYC. He studied under David Johnson, head of Hutton’s Commodity Division and Chairman of the COMEX. In the 1980’s Oliver began to develop his own momentum-based method of technical analysis. In 1987 Oliver, along with his futures client accounts (Oliver had trading POA) technically anticipated and captured the Crash. Oliver began to realize that his emergent momentum-structural-based tools should be further developed into a full analytic methodology. In 1992 he was asked by the Financial VP and head of Wachovia Bank’s Trust Department to provide soft dollar research to Wachovia. Within a year Oliver shifted from brokerage to full-time technical research. MSA has provided its proprietary technical research services to financial and asset management clients continually since 1992. Oliver is the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism. | |
