In Chris Powell's recent response to my article, he has again done what GATA does best - massage the facts to fit their narrative. So, while GATA admittedly will be unable to tell you where the market is heading next, they certainly know how to spin what people say to try to explain why they have no clue where the market is going.So, in this rebuttal, I will address each of Mr. Powell's points."We...Read More

A team of researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute found a way to use the internal heat of lithium-ion batteries to diffuse into a smooth layer the dendrites that form after several cycles of discharge-recharge.Dendrites are sort of "branches" that emanate out of the lithium metal surface and can grow long enough to create a short circuit between the battery's electrodes, leading to a fire...Read More

"All the money needed for hyperinflation has already been printed." Kirby contends, "It's kind of like having a nuclear war, and people say where are the bombs going to come from?
