International Man: Recently, the calls for the Fed to add a third mandate to address racial and economic inequality have grown louder. Will we see a redistribution of wealth soon? Doug Casey: It seems the movement towards black “reparations” is building momentum. These things always start small, testing the water, then grow when nobody either laughs […]

Continue readingAs a general principle, I’ve always tended to avoid entrusting others with my money. I’ve avoided funds, as they are often based upon investments that are peaking or close to peaking.
