Wallstreetwindow Podcast

In this podcast I talked with David Skarica of addictedtoprofits.net about what he sees as a blowoff stock market rally going into the end of the year. It certainly feels that way as the S&P 500 ETF SPY and Nasdaq ETF QQQ is going straight up. The Russell 2000 also broke out a few days ago.We also talked about what is happening in the precious metals markets and small cap plays we are doing.For more from Mike Swanson go to http://www.wallstreetwindow.com

To watch the video go here:https://youtu.be/fo8Ii6bCN_AGold has been pulling back in a consolidation phase digesting the big gains it made this summer. Some people though are saying that price manipulators are making it so that gold and silver prices cannot go up. They claim short sellers won't let it happen.These are assertions with no evidence. In this video I show what is really making gold move up and down and what truly does impact it's price. Understanding this will enable you to know the real downside risks for gold prices from here and when the next big breakout run will begin. Clear thinking is key to investing and trading.For more from Mike go here:http://wallstreetwindow.com/top-mining-stock-pick

I am interested in many things besides just the financial markets and wrote a book about the Cold War origins of today's military-industrial complex and power elite titled The War State. I am now working on a follow up to that book about The Vietnam War.Last week I was a guest on The Ochelli Effect and the two of us had a discussion about the Vietnam War and the Tet Offensive. We looked at the years 1967 and 1968 as key times in which most Americans that served in Vietnam did so by arriving there in one of those two years.

The stock market has managed to have a nice rally this month and this week the Federal Reserve is set to lower interest rates again in order to keep this stock market going. It's easy to get caught up and mesmerized by 48-hour news cycle, and the day to day stock market action with years of near zero interest rates, QE, and negative rates in some government bond markets that have trained all of us to think that this environment is normal and will go on forever.But it is all really an odd time - not until this decade has ever in human history there been negative interest rates.Where would the markets be without these negative rates and where will they be when they come to an end?Something to think about...If you want to watch the Youtube video that this audio is from go here:https://youtu.be/OLnLB9HUiVE-Mike Swanson

After a quick update about the trade deal that has turned out to be a trade truce I interview Scott Horton of The Libertarian Institute (www.libertarianinstitute.org) about a new book he has published titled The Great Ron Paul.Scott has done well over a thousand, perhaps several thousand, interviews with people mainly regarding US foreign policy and foreign non-interventionism. One of his most important guests has been former Congressman and Presidential candidate Ron Paul.Scott explains why Ron Paul's views have been so important since 9/11 and continue to be important.

Many online brokers are cutting their trading commissions to zero. There are ways to benefit from this beyond just zero commissions. It is now better than ever to buy individual stocks as opposed to ETF's when investing in a sector.
