(edit again) That's what they said about Celente in 2007 too. ;-) He used to work for the gov't in politics but couldn't take it anymore....since they all suck their way to the top. ;-O To him, money and survival are no laughing matter. I'll bet you there are about 50 million people that wished they would have listened to Celente in 2007. ;-) Or how about in 2001....when he knew what they were going to do....and said 'go for the gold' at $250/oz..

Sensationalism sells. I remember two or three years back AllansAlias said he'd come to to dismiss all the uber-bears. (He'd long before dismissed the uber-bull clowns.) Betting on an outlier, especially an extreme, is a low-odds play. 2008/09 scared the sh*t out of me, but I find myself wondering (not for the first time)about the collective gloomy outlook on SI. Accurate or not, I think there is a negative bias here that feeds on itself and colors (for some) investment/trading decisions. Disclosure: Pretty close to flat, as well, except for a handful of Canuck juniors, a spot of NGD and a couple other odds and ends.
