I've been listening to the show for around a year, and while the show is well done, Puplava & Co. have been dead wrong on everything since late June. This weekend they were mocking people investing in U.S. Treasuries, yet all of their core investments have gotten whacked over the past 4 1/2 months, some by more than 50 percent. At least people in U.S. Treasuries are keeping the principal.

they have some great webcasts. Jim Puplava i hear just put away a ton of silver.

and they have some guys that are pretty close to Fox News putz financial journalists.

looking at some old links, F. Sense has done some great broadcasting. They had Matt Simmons on in 2005

Just think a little more long term than 6-12 months.

I got out of stocks in late 2004 switched to a balanced portfolio mutual fund, then to a conservative mix in 2006. Earlier this year I switched to cash when the market dipped 20%

Now I will be switching to Gold and some energy stocks.

Gold is a good decision. As is silver and oil (long term).

For everyone who is interested, Financial Sense did a three episode review of the IEA report. I posted all the links on my blog, here. The first "Mission Impossible" starts about half way through the podcast, if I remember correctly.

Enjoy.

"Jim Puplava i hear just put away a ton of silver. "

He bought a ton at $12-$12.5.

I really like the show but all the time and still continues to say don't sell. He had too much faith in the fed to keep the economy constantly inflating. We are here so I don't know where we go from now. Probably the best advise from JIM is to own physical gold, you still would have done reasonable over the last year, but their number 1 investment was silver bullion, they recommended it over gold. Right now he said he's going into the futures market to buy oil, I hope he is right on that call of his because I just bought a oiler.
