Traditional Portfolio Strategy -- Are You Kidding?

It is difficult for me to express how upset I am with investors being misled by traditional portfolio strategy. Let me state for the record: there is no such thing as a diversified portfolio when most stocks and bonds represent companies or municipalities that are dependent on federal government funds. In addition, there is a difference between a traditional business cycle and a financial coup d'etat.

Finally, if the rule of law is not available to ensure functioning markets, all bets are off. There are some things that even zero percent interest rates and an infinite amount of loans from the Fed and the Treasury can't solve.

To illustrate, have a look at these stories posted at my blog:

I'll be discussing this subject in greater detail tonight on The Solari Report conference call: Dec 18 at 9PM EST. 

In our "Ask Catherine" segment, subscribers have asked, "How much US debt is really outstanding?" We'll talk about collateral and securities fraud and how it connects to one of this weeks biggest stories: why the Fed refuses to disclose information about its $2 trillion dollars of loans: In this week's "Movers and Shakers," I'll be talking with investigative reporter Jon Rappoport about the challenges created by fluoride and chlorine in your water, why you should avoid vaccines, and the importance of keeping your immune system strong. Finally, in "Let's Go the Movies," we will be discussing one of my favorite movies -- Enemy of the State -- and what it can teach you about navigating in a world defined by economic warfare and corruption.
