As we head into summer, it?s time for our look at the top 10 signs of trouble ahead for investors and their preferred markets. (On Wednesday, we?ll look at the top 10 signs of nirvana ahead for world markets.)

1. There are only 24 people in the world who care about gold and none of them are central bankers attending this week?s annual Paris gold conference. Gold has been stuck in a $275 to $290 per ounce range for most of the year. Central bankers are dumping their gold reserves. A bad inflation number these days doesn?t budge bond yields or currencies. Food for thought: When have you ever seen a large group of central bankers agree on anything and be correct?

I never understood how these business models assumed that a net company could sell Lands End shirts for instance cheaper than Lands End. >>>

Even more so, what is the mechanism for the increase in their productivity going forward in comparison to the Old Economy... Faster connection than their competitor?....

<<Wonder when the market is going to figure out that current earnings growth assumptions based on similar productivity assumptions are just as 'pie in the sky'?>>

I always wondered how "produtive" everyone is being on their jobs while using Internet for playing games , looking at porn, talking about & trading stocks, passing around email jokes....
