Economics & Investing For Preppers

Here are the latest items and commentary on current economics news, market trends, stocks, investing opportunities, and the precious metals markets. We also cover hedges, derivatives, and obscura. And it bears mention that most of these items are from the “tangibles heavy” contrarian perspective of JWR. (SurvivalBlog’s Founder and Senior Editor.) Today’s focus is on global instability in the financial markets, triggered by higher interest rates.

News Tips:

Please send your economics and investing news tips to JWR. (Either via e-mail of via our Contact form.) These are often especially relevant, because they come from folks who particularly watch individual markets. And due to their diligence and focus, we benefit from fresh “on target” investing news. We often “get the scoop” on economic and investing news that is probably ignored (or reported late) by mainstream American news outlets. Thanks!

  1. Oh please.

    I trade silver on paper, long and short. And, almost at a point where I can make my sole living from it.

    The 50-month moving average is at just over 16.00. That is where the big dogs (Goldman, Duetsche, etc.) manipulate it at. If you want to wait forever to make money, buy silver to hold.
