Graham Summers Articles

Europe has banned the use of €500 bills. The reason? They claim these bills are used in money laundering and for drugs. And if you believe that is the concern, you probably believe the earth is flat.
Central Bankers delusional? Over the weekend, Benoît Cœuré, Member of the Executive Board of the ECB, penned a piece defending the ECB’s policies from the criticism that NIRP hurts savers. The first paragraph reveals, quite clearly, just...
We continue to see articles by so called “experts” trashing Gold and Silver as investments. Gold is everything from a “Pet Rock” to a “Dumb Investment” or “Barbarous Relic.” Do these people even bother doing research? Or are they just...
Futures are looking weak again. Traders gunned for 2100 on the S&P500 last week. They briefly touched that level, but there was no follow through for the obvious reason: no one with a brain believes this rally.

Put simply, the inflation genie is out of the bottle. Core inflation is already moving higher at a time when prices of most basic goods are at 19-year lows. Any move higher in Oil and other commodities will only PUSH core inflation higher.
The US markets are in a quandary. On the one hand, some of the data (GDP growth, unemployment, etc.) suggests the Fed should continue to hike rates. On the other hand, other data points (food stamp usage, labor participation rate) suggest...
A growing number of investors are beginning to realize that Central Banks are effectively out of ammo (for now). Last week I noted that the Bank of Japan’s implementation of NIRP only generated a brief rally in Japanese stocks. That rally...

Gold is using for heat dissipation in some cars.
