The Oil Cartel is going long. . . . tech bubble profits packed into real estate, real estate profits packed into oil and commodities . . . when its done and Gold is at $2K inflation adjusted and Oil is at $200 a barrel then everything will go back into banking, real estate and tech renewing the cycle.
Interesting that banks do well in periods of recession as interest rates are raised.
Nothing beats the capital gains exemption on real estate so for the little guy. . .hold tight on gold and cash and jump in when it hits bottom.
