Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The ‘Madness’ Of Bond And Gold Markets

Whether its new-fangled Japanese stocks, hi-tech internet company valuations, multi-colored flowers, or mansions made affordable by criminally lax lending standards, Grant Williams notes that a bubble is a bubble is a bubble; and citing Stein’s Law: “If something cannot go on forever; it will stop.” In this excellent summary of all things currently (and historically) bubblicious – whether greed-driven or fear-driven – Williams concludes it is never different this time as he addresses the four phases of the classic bubble-wave: smart-money, awareness, mania, blow-off (or crash) and explainshow government bonds are set to burst and gold is only just about to enter its mania phase. This far-reaching and entirely accessible presentation is stunning in its clarity and as he notes, while bubbles are always easy to spot ex-ante, understanding how they come about and why they are popped gives the few an opportunity to profit at the expense of the madness of crowds. From tulips to tech-wrecks, and from inflation to insatiable stimulus, the bubble in ‘safe-haven flows’ that currently exists has all the characteristics of a popular delusion.

    Yes buy these before buying any physical gold/silver

    People need to understand that we have $999tr worth of gold, it’s called fractional gold and they can print gold receipts just like they print any fiat currency but kings don’t keep wealth in bit’s of paper but like to keep the real deal.
