Gold always a good bet on a dysfunctional government

If you hate the government, you might as well profit from it. Gold is off to a good start this week, gaining $15 to $1325. That’s the highest since last Tuesday.

There is no easy path out from here and that means a good probability this stretches to Friday, at least. If we get that close to the debt ceiling, there …

The US $, and the US economy after the shut down

The fact that the US government has been forced in to this closure by a small group of Republicans is extraordinary when looked at from outside. I am in no position to say who is right and who is wrong in this debate, but one would have hoped that somehow, the national interest would have overcome political posturing before committing to this action. Perhaps the President was too forceful in his speech before the vote, in seemingly leaving no room for debate – and perhaps that hardened the attit…

US Headed for a Government Shutdown

Early on Sunday the US House voted, once again, to tie a vote on government funding to a one-year delay of Obamacare. The Senate has twice rejected the amendment and will rejected it again. If not, Obama will veto it.
The seeming lack of progress means a shutdown at midnight on Monday is increasingly likely. It will be the first government shutdown since 1996.
With the Tea Party seemingly taking control of Republican leadership, there is a chance this could be an extended fight. When markets ope…

Growth....a revised, revised approach?

The Office for National Statistics in the UK announced that second quarter growth showed an increase of 0.6% - the best growth figures since mid-2010. BUT, what does this growth figure actually mean to the wider population? The answer is very little.

The breakdown of this figure is where the real interest lies. The services side …
