Chuck Butler (The Daily Reckoning):
What a ride yesterday for the currencies! Gold? Well, at one point gold had shot up $24 on the day! It topped out at $1,142… The shiny metal then gave some back on profit taking, but gold holders have got to love it! Those who keep waiting for a pullback. Well, they might still be waiting when the cows come home.

For more than a decade, author and academic Dr. Jeremy Siegel had the Midas touch. His book “Stocks For the Long Run,” first published in October 1996, surveyed more than 200 years of stock market history both in the United States and abroad and made a compelling case that common stocks are the very best long-term investment vehicle. Better than cash. Better than bonds. Better than real estate. Better than gold.

The Fed is flooding the system with as much funny money as it can. US monetary base has shot up by over 100% this year. It’s the largest increase in 50 years by a factor of 10. This build up of freshly printed dollars threatens a dangerous inflation… but not yet.

The carnage of the past two years in the stock market is giving investors a clear warning; learn a new way of doing things or get ready for more of the same. The money clock never stops ticking and the longer you wait to make the necessary changes to stop the bleeding in your accounts the less you’ll have when you retire. Every day you put this off increases the chance of being broke in retirement.
