Casey Research – BIG GOLD

Currently, we find ourselves in a mess that many are calling the most serious economic crisis since the Great Depression. If not worse.

Recently I completed the first of a two-part article about an amazing bank that appears fiscally responible, financially sound, and has set their priorities on being environmentally proactive.

Arthur Laffer is our kind of economist. He takes the simple real-life facts of human nature and uses them to figure out how different incentives influence future behavior. I'm a big fan of both market psychology and investor psychology because there is so much we can learn from it.
