Two contemporary libertarian greats talk about the crisis.

Mises Foundation founder Lew Rockwell interviewed blogger Mike “Mish” Shedlock on his podcast series:

Link here.

Topics include bailouts, ‘stimulus’ plans, the benefits of deflation, and Mish’s campaigns to end bailouts and abolish the Fed.

Mish is really pushing hard politically. I’m 100% behind him, but I worry a bit about how the gangsters might respond to him now that he is getting so popular.

Also check out Lew Rockwell’s podcast archives and look for Jim Rogers’ interview yesterday.

PS — Sorry again for the lack of posts. I’ve been a bit unsettled of late, having been in the middle of a transoceanic move.

  1. Nah, I never recommend trades. Not doing much now, really. Holding some long-term shorts, that’s all.

    This is a counter-trend rally, but it can go a bit further and stay range-bound even many months longer, so I’m largely on the sidelines. If we are still at this level 6 months from now, I’ll go more heavily short. Same if we get close to Dow 10k at any time.

    Not going long anything — still thinking $600 gold or lower and much lower silver. Agnostic on oil at this level. Long-term, sure, but $25 is not out of the question first.

    I like grains long-term also, but I’m not in a hurry to buy anything. There is lots of time to scale into positions.

  2. Hello Mike,

    Where are you relocating to? I am living in France right now, although it’s not really part of my long-term, strategic vision (although it was nice to earn Euros over the course of the last year).

    I wouldn’t mind exchanging e-mails with you on various and sundry topics that you might not wish to directly address within your blog. Please send me a message if you care to do so. I don’t see an e-mail for you listed on the site.

    Best regards,

    Brian

  3. Dear Editor,

    I work for Wikinvest, an investing wiki covering companies, concepts, currencies and commodities prices. Over the past month, I’ve been approaching top bloggers about the Wikinvest Wire, a traffic-boosting, invitation-only blogwire for finance and investing blogs.

    We launched the Wire in early October and our 100+ Wire members have seen a significant jump in traffic and benefited tremendously from links to their blog showing up on other blogs and Wikinvest. If you’re interested in learning more about the Wire, do get in touch with me at vikram [at] wikinvest [dot] com.

    Have a great day ahead!

    Vikram
