As I promised at the beginning of this year, the investment sleuths at Weiss Research are working nonstop with one goal in mind:

To bring you new investment strategies designed to multiply your money as this stock market continues to rally …

And that ALSO protect you — and could make you even wealthier — when the next correction comes.

A while back, we uncovered a secret “sweet spot” in the stock market — a special class of stocks that could have brought you gains of 298% … 283% … 347% … up to 425% — all with far less risk.

Now, I want you to make this remarkable discovery
right along with us!

All you have to do is watch your inbox — and you can become an investment sleuth in your own right; make this same critical discovery along with me.

Every morning this week, I’ll send you a short three-minute video in which I tell the story of one of these stocks: How each one posted gains of 298% … 283% … 347% … up to 425%.

Each of these huge winners had the SAME TWO easy-to-identify qualities — two qualities that could have helped you to pick that stock BEFORE it generated those huge gains.

Your job is simply to figure out what those two qualities might be. Just click here to give me your answers.

Then, this coming Monday — May 13 — at 2:00 PM, I will reveal these two qualities to ALL of our readers.

I will reveal exactly what this powerful money-making secret is that could have led you to those enormous gains.

And we will even give you a full list of the TEN stocks that have these qualities right now: Stocks you could buy immediately to go for similarly large gains in the NEXT 12 months!

This will be a lot of fun — and it could prove to be extremely profitable for you!

Stable Profits in an Unstable World

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on April 19, 2013 · 455 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

There’s no doubt today’s world is unstable.

Washington is buried in debt, most corporate earnings are disappointing, and the latest data seems to indicate that the U.S. recovery is faltering under the weight of government cutbacks …

But the stock market is HITTING NEW ALL-TIME RECORD HIGHS!

The Fed is printing money like there’s no tomorrow … the drumbeat of war can be heard in Asia and the Middle East … the euro appears to be on the brink of collapse …

 But gold, silver, oil and other commodities ARE FALLING!

It almost feels like we’ve stepped through the looking glass — into a land where everything is upside down and inside out.

And that makes my personal commitment to help you build wealth more important than ever.

So every day for the next several days, I’m asking you to share your financial objectives, opinions and strategies with me.

Today’s Question of the Day:
Which kinds of stocks are you most
interested in owning now?

Please click this link and give me your answer now!

Are you a cautious investor, looking for lower-risk blue chip stocks that have the potential to outperform the market and also give you superior dividends?

Or are you willing to accept more risk with smaller companies that could explode in price?

Are you among those who want to throw caution to the wind with more speculative penny shares?

Or is there a particular sector of the market that you feel offers you a good rate of return WITHOUT exposing you to unacceptable risk?

I think this is a critical time for you and me to have a serious conversation about your investments.

Nearly three months ago, I promised that the entire Weiss Research team would do whatever it takes to bring you practical, actionable strategies for growing your wealth …

Since then, the S&P 500 has surged to all-time record highs.

At the same time, just as our team has warned you, gold and other commodities have plunged.

Now, I’m asking you to do me a very important favor:

Help me help you harness the enormous power of this rally — by filling me in on your investment approach and your financial goals for the rest of the year.

The Most Dangerous Conspiracy of All Time

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on April 6, 2013 · 117 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D.

You’ve no doubt heard about various conspiracy theories — the JFK assassination conspiracy, the New World Order conspiracy, the “Clinton Body Count conspiracy,” and innumerous others dating back to biblical times.

Yet in terms of the sheer propensity to create pain and suffering, none can compare to the conspiracy now entrapping the globe.

Unlike most other conspiracies, it is ..

* Not a theory! It’s fact — fully documented and measured with proven stats.

* Not a secret! It’s openly admitted by the conspirators. They even publish the results regularly and brag about them almost daily.

* Global! It’s perpetuated by the most powerful three men on the planet today, all working in unison to steal from the people and destroy your wealth.

* A known menace to society. History shows that, in the end game, this conspiracy invariably leads to economic collapse, mass unemployment, chronic poverty, the unraveling of social institutions, even mass famine and revolution.

The long-term impact: Destruction of wealth, erosion of social institutions, mass corruption in government, enrichment of the few, impoverishment of the many, and chaos.

Today, Brazil has learned this harsh lesson of history; out-of-control central bank money printing is now strictly taboo.

Of course the country still has serious social and economic issues. What large nation doesn’t? But it’s mostly stable and prosperous.

That’s something that continues to surprise me to this day, especially when I return to the some of the poorest regions I knew as a child.

But what is far MORE surprising to me is …

The sheer audacity of the world’s most powerful
central bankers who are now perpetuating a far
larger, GLOBAL money-printing conspiracy!

This particular global conspiracy started in September of 2008, when Lehman Brothers failed, the entire financial system was melting down, and the U.S. Federal Reserve Board reacting by running the money printing presses like never before in history.

The financial crisis subsided. But the money printing continued.

Worse, it spread to the European Union, when its weakest member countries went bankrupt and its largest banks came to the brink of collapse: The European Central Bank (ECB) broke its own rules and vows, unleashing its largest-ever money printing operations.

xxxxx

And now, just this week, the newly minted governor of the Bank of Japan (BOJ) has also launched its biggest money printing round in history, vowing not only to buy up huge amounts of government bonds, but also exchange-traded funds and even Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITS).

In an email he just sent to me, Safe Money editor Mike Larson puts it this way:

“The Bank of Japan is winning the central bank race to Crazy-Town! They just announced they’re going to more than double their monthly bond purchases to 7.5 trillion yen (about $79 billion), with the aim of doubling the monetary base in Japan over the next two years.

“Previously, they focused their purchases on short-term bonds. Now, they’re going to buy bonds of any kind, out to 40-year maturities.

“Previously, they rarely bought anything other than government securities. Now, they will also buy a lot more exchange-traded funds (a direct stock market manipulation) and REITS (a direct manipulation of the real estate market).

“Until 2008, every modern industrial nation in the world considered these policies strictly taboo — weapons of mass wealth destruction.

“They would never touch this kind of direct financing of government debt issuance, direct market manipulation, or massive balance sheet expansion — let alone at a pace that far exceeds the growth in the real economy.

“But now, especially with the latest news from Japan, all those taboos are out the window!”

Indeed, the world’s three most powerful central bankers are closely coordinating their conspiracy to RAPIDLY inflate the global supply of paper money:

Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke is the ring leader. He started it and effectively left the others no choice but to join in.

ECB President Mario Draghi was next.

And now, BOJ’s Haruhiko Kuroda has taken it to the next level.

Each of these co-conspirators thinks he can …

Lift his imperial hand to the sky …

Defy the proven laws of economics …

Fool millions of investors …

Manipulate the world’s largest financial markets, and …

Do all of this indefinitely, with impunity!

What do YOU think?

Critical summit on gold and silver! What to do …

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on March 11, 2013 · 85 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

HEADS UP:
Critical summit on gold and silver
THIS Wednesday — just
48 hours from now!

Your most pressing questions answered:

  • Why aren’t gold and silver soaring right now?
  • When — if ever — will the great commodities bull market resume?
  • Should I be buying now? Selling like crazy? Standing pat?
  • I can’t afford to get crushed by inflation: What do I do?

This Wednesday, March 13, 2013 — the day after tomorrow — could be a red-letter day for you. I strongly recommend that you mark your calendar now.

At 2:00 PM Eastern Time, we’re going to address one of the most pressing investment questions you have right now:

“What do I DO with my tangible assets now? My gold? My silver? My oil?”

Believe me: We HEAR you!

Despite unprecedented Fed money printing … despite the beginnings of what’s almost sure to be a massive bond market fiasco … despite the drumbeat of war with Iran … despite the fact that food, fuel and healthcare costs are skyrocketing … commodities prices have been drifting lower.

To many, that seems impossible. Fed money printing and inflation are supposed to push gold, silver and other tangible assets through the roof. To many investors, it almost seems like somebody repealed the basic laws of economics!

So is this the end for gold and other tangible asset investments? Or is it something else?

What should you be doing right now?

We have some great answers for you — answers I think you’re going to love — and we’ll share them with you this coming Wednesday.

First, though, I need you to do me a favor: Click this link to join the discussion on my personal blog by giving us your answer to this “Question of the Day:”

“What kinds of investments have you bought to protect your wealth from the ravages of inflation? Given today’s economic realities, do you believe you’re adequately protected?”

I’m looking forward to seeing you online … and to get you the answers you need to keep your wealth growing!

Good luck and God bless!

Is it OVER for gold?

by Stan Pyatt on March 10, 2013 · 192 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

As I’m sure you know by now, I’m in charge of the Customer Care department here at Money and Markets. That means I spend most of my time answering the phone and fielding questions for the team.

And frankly, I’ve never seen a time when more people were demanding the answer to the same question:

What should I do with my GOLD?

I certainly understand. After all, the Fed is printing billions of new, unbacked paper dollars every day. Washington IS still running up staggering debts every day. And with all the saber-rattling in the Middle East, the drums of war are beating louder every day.

At a time like this, you would expect gold prices to be shooting the moon! Instead, prices have been softening for five months now! No wonder everybody wants to know what to do about their gold!

Plus, you’re also asking the same questions about your silver, oil and other tangible assets:

  • Why aren’t they soaring right now?
  • When — if ever — will this great commodities bull market resume?
  • Should I be buying now? Selling like crazy? Standing pat?
  • I can’t afford to get crushed by inflation: What do I do?

We’ll give you OUR answers on Wednesday
— but first, we need to hear from YOU!

Give special consideration to today’s “Question of the Day:”

“What’s your best idea for making money when gold and other tangible assets are declining? How do you know when to bet on the downside?”

Thanks for your help!

Sincerely,
Stan Pyatt
Manager, Customer Care Department
Money and Markets

P.S. The answer to this question is so crucial right now, we are NOT asking our readers to register for next Wednesday’s call. Just watch your inbox for instructions for attending!

“SO WHAT IN THE HECK IS UP WITH GOLD?”

Plus, they’re also asking the same questions about your silver, oil and other tangible asset investments:

  • Why aren’t they soaring right now?
  • When will this great commodities bull market resume?
  • Should I be buying now? Selling like crazy? Standing pat?
  • I can’t afford to get crushed by inflation: What do I do?

We’ll give you OUR answers on Wednesday

Give special consideration to this “Question of the Day:”

“What is the best way you know to stay protected against inflation AND ALSO keep the profits rolling in when gold and other tangible assets are NOT rising in value?”

I’m looking forward to seeing you online … and to get you the answers you need to keep your wealth growing!

Revolutionary new ways to grow your wealth

by Mike Larson on January 30, 2013 · 87 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

More than 11 years ago, I walked into the Weiss Research offices for the first time.

The 9/11 attacks had occurred only a few short days earlier, and the global markets were still reeling. No one knew how deep the resulting economic downturn would be, or how much investor capital would be lost.

But I also remember Dr. Weiss calmly and cooly walking us at the company through his vision of what would happen next, and also sharing that prudent guidance with his family of trusted subscribers.

I especially remember how appreciative everyone was to have his level-headed expertise, honed over decades of following the markets during times of economic and geopolitical crises.

In the years since, I’ve had the privilege to work closely by Martin’s side — through some of the most turbulent and powerful bull and bear markets ever.

We’ve seen the biggest real estate boom and bust in history … the biggest recession and weakest recovery of the past century … and the most aggressive government interventions and market manipulations ever.

Heck, the Federal Reserve is doing things now that would have been considered unimaginable just a few short years ago. And the Fed is far from alone — policymakers the world over have lost their marbles!

Throughout it all, though, Martin and I have done our dead level best to help you survive and thrive. To protect your capital — and help you grow it — in the worst of the bad times, and the best of the good.

It hasn’t always been easy, and we’ve had our share of trials over the years. But I’ve always been able to count on Martin to help me through them, and to emerge stronger on the other side!

This is precisely why I’m so excited
about what’s coming next,

in this landmark year of 2013:

While we are as committed as ever to warning you about dangers to your wealth we see on the horizon, we are also re-doubling our efforgs to bring you as many genuine profit opportunities as possible.

Because as the Fed and other central banks continue to bury the world in newly printed yen, euros, and dollars, that money is likely to drive select stocks substantially higher — and we want to make sure YOU have the opportunity to profit!

This is why there is now a link on the Money and Markets website that enables you to check the rating on more than 16,000 shares for free.

Plus, we are aggressively seeking revolutionary new ways to help you grow your wealth …

> As America’s enormous bond bubble continues to burst …

> As unrestrained Fed money printing guts the U.S. dollar, and …

> As gold and other tangible assets respond.

CASE IN POINT:  Our recent introduction of the revolutionary Hard Asset Trader program, which empowers you to purchase gold and silver bullion at extremely competitive prices and have it stored securely offshore.

Plus, in just a few hours from now — around noon Eastern Time today — Dr. Weiss will make the most important announcement in the history of Weiss Research:

Be sure to keep your eyes glued to your inbox around noon Eastern Time today for an email with the subject line …

“A profitable new era for investors.”

Tell us what concerns you the most about protecting and growing your wealth.

Tell us what worries you the most about how the Federal Reserve is handling the ongoing financial crisis …

How Wall Street is treating your money …

How you think Washington is handling the U.S. economy.

We want to hear from you. Click here now to join the discussion.

Until next time,

Mike

When I first met Martin back in 1995, we immediately hit it off.

I remember that we talked of bubbles past, present and future. We both knew, instinctively, that it was only a matter of time before the world would experience such a rash of bubble-blowing, that nothing, absolutely nothing, would ever be the same again.

Together, we set out on a mission: To expose the shenanigans both on and off Wall Street. We tore apart the financials of companies like Enron and WorldCom. We repeatedly warned investors of their imminent demise.

We warned of the Asian financial crisis in 1998, and the demise of Long Term Capital Management, the first major financial derivatives bombs that exploded and nearly took down the U.S. banking system.

We warned of the Mexican “peso” crisis, and how investors would be fleeced by the investment bankers.

We exposed the crooked sales pitches that Wall Street used to get investors to buy just about anything under the sun, investments that brokers themselves knew hardly anything about, but which they could sugarcoat with such finesse it would make a candy-maker shy.

We harped, over and over again on conflicts of interest on Wall Street. We exposed crooked gold and silver bullion dealers. We left no stones unturned in our efforts to protect investors.

But no matter how hard we tried, Wall Street and Washington, virtually hand-in-hand, were dead set on blowing even more financial bubbles and conflicts of interest that would trap unwary investors.

We will continue to warn investors of the dangers that Wall Street and Washington seem to perpetually create for investors, of course …

But by the same token, over the years we have both learned how to not only protect investors from financial bubbles, but also, how to help our readers profit from them.

Because very simply put, no matter how insensitive Wall Street or Washington is to your wealth, our mission here at Weiss Research is not only to help you protect your wealth but to grow it … steadily … despite the contrivances of Washington and Wall Street.

In 2013, our goal is also to bring you
as many genuine profit opportunities
as is humanly possible.

That’s critical — especially in today’s global economy, where central banks all over the world are determined to save their governments by printing their way out of debt, but at your expense.

It’s also why just this week, Dr. Weiss announced our mission to help you profit from further rallies in the market — with stocks that are fundamentally strong and pay good dividends even WITHOUT the wind in their sails from money printing and other government schemes.

It’s why there will now be a link on the Money and Markets website that enables you to check the rating on more than 16,000 shares.

It’s also why we are searching out many new ways to help you profit through adversity — including strategies to help you grow your wealth as America’s enormous bond bubble continues to burst … as unrestrained Fed money printing guts the U.S. dollar … and as gold and other tangible assets respond.

Our recent introduction of our revolutionary Hard Asset Trader program, which empowers you to purchase gold, and silver bullion at extremely competitive prices and have it stored securely offshore is another great step in this regard.

Watershed announcement TOMORROW!

And now, we are on the eve of the most important announcement in the history of Weiss Research:

Keep your eyes on your inbox around noon Eastern Time tomorrow for what may well be the single most important announcement in this company’s history.  The subject line will be …

“A profitable new era for investors”

Tell us what worries you the most about how the Federal Reserve is handling the ongoing financial crisis …

How Wall Street is treating your money …

How you think Washington is handling the U.S. economy.

Important Changes: In the World and at Weiss Research

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on January 28, 2013 · 1,309 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

What I have to say this morning is so critical and timely, I have decided to make this issue very brief.

And I am also preparing a special video announcement that I will send you on Wednesday.

In the 42 years since I founded this company, our primary mission has been to make accurate forecasts of future dangers and opportunities, while helping investors protect themselves and profit from them.

And we are very proud of our forecast accuracy throughout those years.

We accurately warned of the bank and S&L crisis of the 1970s.

We forewarned millions of Americans about the giant insurance company failures of the early 1990s.

We shouted from the rooftops about the coming tech stock collapse of the early 2000s.

We warned repeatedly — and even submitted white papers to Congress — about the coming housing bust of 2007-2008, plus the debt crisis that soon followed.

In each crisis, we specifically named, well ahead of time, nearly all the financial institutions that failed.

We helped protect countless investors from severe losses.

And we even helped many to profit.

However, as we step further into the 21st Century, a new force is transforming the world as we know it. I’m referring to …

The Mass Money Printing Operations

Of the World’s Largest Governments

This new force is not driven by free market forces. Nor is it subject to the age-old rules of supply and demand.

Rather, it’s decided upon by a handful of obscure individuals in the world’s major central banks.

That’s why it’s less predictable … but not less powerful.

Because of this new force, we now live in a whirlwind of blindingly fast political, economic, monetary, and market change.

We are witnessing economic changes that most would have said could never happen in America four decades ago.

We are reeling from changes in the global economy — and our place in it — that would have seemed stranger than science fiction in 1971.

The key word is “CHANGE.”

The Obama administration is proposing changes that could make those of his first term pale by comparison.

The Fed has radically changed its management of the economy.

With each passing day, decisions that are made in Beijing, Tokyo, Athens, Bonn, and Paris create huge new dangers — and massive new profit opportunities — for you.

I have come to the inescapable conclusion that, to bring the most value possible to your life …

To better help you protect your wealth and profit in this strange new environment, Weiss Research must change, too.

For these reasons, I am about to make the announcement that could change everything for you: The way you see the world … the way you cope with these massive changes … the way you approach your investments … and the profits you can earn.

This coming Wednesday at 9 AM Eastern Time, I will make that announcement with an email carrying the subject line: “A profitable new era for investors.”

If you only see one thing my company does this year, make sure you see that email. It will change this company. And it could change your life.

First, though, I need to hear from you.

Ask any questions you like.

Beginning at 2 PM Eastern Time today, I will answer as many of your questions as I possibly can.
And also during the day today, my team — including Mike Larson, Larry Edelson, Charles Goyette as well as some of our top executives and others — will be there to listen … answer your questions … and to exchange ideas with you.

Good luck and God bless!

Martin

The Single Most Momentous Election of Our Lifetimes

by Mike Larson on September 30, 2012 · 146 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

The Obama White House makes no bones whatsoever about the vast differences between the president and his challenger, Mitt Romney.

And for his part, Mr. Romney is doing everything in his power to make it clear that this election isn’t just about two men; it’s about two extremely different visions for America’s economy.

The Obama approach to the economy is well-known:

STEP #1: Raise taxes on businesses, business owners and everyone who earns more than $250,000 per year.

STEP #2: Spend every penny you collect in taxes; but don’t stop there!

STEP #3: Borrow every penny you can — not just from Americans, but from governments, central banks and investors all around the world — and spend that money, too.

STEP #4: Print trillions of greenbacks … unlimited numbers of paper dollars — and spend those, too.

Romney, of course, says the Obama approach has not only failed; it is a recipe for disaster — that it will ultimately destroy the economy with debt … destroy the dollar’s buying power … and drive our cost of living sky-high.

Instead, Romney says we need to CUT taxes … CUT spending … CUT our $1 trillion-plus annual deficits … and STOP Fed money printing …

All without destroying what little is left of economic activity in this country.

No doubt about it: It would be nearly impossible to imagine two visions for America that were more radically different!

The Most Crucial Election in American History

No matter who they’re voting for, our readers clearly agree on one crucial fact:

The decision we Americans make on Tuesday, November 6 — 40 days from today — will be heard around the world and will reverberate for generations.

It will have an enormous, direct impact on YOU, PERSONALLY: On your cost of living … your income … your taxes … your savings … your retirement … your health care … and the liberty you, your children and your children’s children will enjoy.

It will also have a profound impact on the value of the stocks you own … on the price of your gold holdings … and on every financial and investment decision you make both now and for many years to come.

Getting a sneak preview of these all-important election results — and a clear understanding of how most investors are likely to react to them — could give you an ENORMOUS money-making advantage BEGINNING IMMEDIATELY!

That’s why we want to know what YOU and the rest of our 600,000 readers think about these upcoming elections …

Who gets your vote — both for president and for Congress …

And how the results are likely to impact your investment choices!

USA Today says John is America’s “MOST ACCURATE POLLSTER.” The Washington Post proclaimed “All hail Zogby, the maverick predictor who beat us all.”

Right now, we’re working with Mr. Zogby and his organization to expand this poll far beyond our readers to represent ALL investors nationwide …

And we’re going even further: Beyond the investment community to get the opinions of likely voters from coast to coast!

Our mission: To get you the answers you need most at a very special online briefing with John at noon Eastern Time this coming Thursday, October 4, 2012:

  • What will America look like after the November 6 elections?
  • Which party is most likely to win the White House?
  • Could the Republicans seize control of the Senate?
  • Will Democrats make big gains in the House of Representatives?

More importantly, how are investors most likely to react to the election’s results?

  • Will they buy stocks, driving the Dow to 15,000 or even higher?
  • Will they panic and stampede for the exits — and by doing so, slash the value of many stocks by up to 50% or even more?
  • Will millions rush out and buy gold if President Obama wins a second term?
  • And, most important, can this election do anything — anything at all — to keep America from plunging off of its massive fiscal cliff on January 1, 2013?

Best wishes,

U.S. economy CRATERING! What to do …

by Charles Goyette on September 29, 2012 · 104 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

These are truly perilous times — every bit of real-world economic data we saw last week stunk up the joint:

U.S. ECONOMIC GROWTH STALLING: The U.S. Commerce Department once again corrected itself, reporting that in April, May and June of this year …

The economy did NOT grow at the 4% pace it posted in the final three months of 2011 …

It did NOT grow at the 2% pace it hit in the first three months of 2012 …

It did not even grow at the pathetic 1.7% pace the government originally claimed.

In fact, the U.S. economy only grew at the absolutely pathetic rate of just 1.3% in April, May and June!

DURABLE GOODS ORDERS CRATERING: Also last week, we learned that in August, orders for durable goods imploded by a staggering 13.2% — the biggest decline since the depths of “The Great Recession” in January of 2009.

This is important: Durable goods orders are one of the economy’s most important leading indicators and this number suggests that the slowdown we’ve already seen in the economy is only beginning.

And now, with “GREAT RECESSION II” bearing down on us like a runaway freight train, a massive NEW blow is set to KO the economy and stock market:

A scant 37 days from today, the 2012 elections are expected to deliver only terrible news for the U.S. economy and investment markets — with paralysis becoming even more debilitating.

The decision we Americans make on Tuesday, November 6 — 37 days from today — will be heard around the world and will reverberate for generations.

It will have an enormous, direct impact on YOU, PERSONALLY: On your cost of living … your income … your taxes … your savings … your retirement … your health care … and the liberty you, your children and your children’s children will enjoy.

It will also have a profound impact on the value of the stocks you own … on the price of your gold holdings … and on every financial and investment decision you make both now and for many years to come.

Getting a sneak preview of these all-important election results — and a clear understanding of how most investors are likely to react to them — could give you an ENORMOUS money-making advantage BEGINNING IMMEDIATELY!

That’s why we want to know what YOU and the rest of our 600,000 readers think about these upcoming elections …

We need to know who gets your vote
— both for president and for Congress …
AND how the results are likely to impact
your investment choices!

Republicans to seize the U.S. Senate?

by Mike Larson on September 28, 2012 · 98 comments

Nothing could have prepared any of us for the massive response we’re getting to our in-house electoral poll, “America at the Precipice!”

So far, more than 40,000 investors have participated in this all-important straw poll.

And by doing so, they are already registered to be on-hand next Thursday to meet America’s Super Pollster, John Zogby — the man USA Today calls America’s “most accurate pollster.”

At noon Eastern Time next Thursday, John will present the results of our scientifically designed national survey of investors and likely voters.

At that historic summit, Mr. Zogby will reveal …

  • How America is most likely to vote on Tuesday, November 6 …
  • Whether Barack Obama is likely to be re-elected, or if Mitt Romney is likely to become the 45th president of the United States …
  • Whether America’s investors are likely to be bullish or bearish on the U.S. economy on November 7 and …
  • Whether they’re more likely to buy or sell stocks and gold through the rest of 2012 and in 2013.

We already have preliminary results from our own readers — and their answers are surprising, to say the least …

Granted, our average reader tends to be far more conservative than the average voter — and that fact is glaringly obvious in our current results!

Right now, for instance, President Obama has only 15.2% of our readers in his camp, while Mitt Romney has a whopping 81.6% in his — a difference of more than five to one.

And the story is similar when we look at the Congressional elections:

An overwhelming 78.2% of our readers say they will vote for Republican candidates while only 13.5% say they will cast their ballots for Democrats.

Plus, the controversy is reaching fever pitch
on the Weiss blog!

For example, Hugo B. voices what is shaping up to be our readers’ majority opinion this way:

“I strongly favor Romney and have confidence that he will put his heart and soul into keeping his promises. Obama’s only kept the promise of changing the government and expanding it.

“Obama is unethical … in my humble opinion, the worst president in history.”

Meanwhile, Mike states the minority case very well:

“The last Republican administration left us with a financial panic, trillions of dollars in deficits and over 4,000 of our soldiers dead and many thousands more seriously injured.

“During the Obama Administration, we’ve seen TARP which stopped the Financial Panic, the stock market is up over 100%, we’ve left Iraq, are pulling out of Afghanistan and Osama is gone.

“Doesn’t sound like a difficult decision to me …”

This is YOUR chance to speak out!

That’s why we want to know what YOU and the rest of our 600,000 readers think about these upcoming elections …

Who gets your vote — both for president and for Congress …

And how the results are likely to impact your investment choices!

Romney — by a LANDSLIDE?

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on September 27, 2012 · 657 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

Who gets YOUR vote — and WHY?

So far, our readers are casting FIVE votes for Mitt Romney for every ONE vote they’re giving President Obama.
Who gets YOUR vote?

Click the link in your e-mail to participate in our straw poll — DECISION 2012: America at the Precipice … and to tell us how you think the election will impact the stock market.

Then CLICK HERE to join the discussion below!

 

It has only been online for 24 hours — and our “Decision 2012” straw poll is already creating enormous controversy!

On its very first day, a whopping 24,000 of our readers cast their votes — and the results of our presidential poll are surprising to say the least. The tally so far:

Mitt Romney: 80.3%

Barack Obama: 15.9%

Even when Libertarian candidate Johnson is added to the mix, Romney wins with a staggering 74.1% of the vote!

Granted, this is only how OUR readers are voting — and only in the first 24 hours this poll has been online. The contest could look very different when we announce the results of our Weiss/Zogby National Poll next week. But …

As you might expect,
passions are running extremely high
on BOTH sides of the issue:

Reed writes …

“I am 100% against Obama. Obama has ruined this country. Romney is our only real hope.”

Charles S. agrees:

“President Obama is an outstanding speaker, a wonderful campaigner, a shrewd politician but a lousy president, commander in chief, and knows nothing about the economy and reducing the debt.”

Bob is even more brutal in his criticism of the president:

“I’m sick of Obama spending the USA into oblivion. He has been a foolish investor with American tax dollars as he sells us all out. And he knows it and he doesn’t care because he can hide behind George Soros’ billions.”

Alex G. is even more aggressive:

“If Americans vote the lying Communist (Obama) back in, it will be the end of this great nation as I knew it.”

But President Obama’s supporters
are equally resolute:

Don F. says …

“Stick with Obama. Romney is too etch-a-sketch. Flip flops too much. Too secretive. No details. Doesn’t relate or care about the 47%. Too beholden to the 1%. Too many unknowns and possible surprises.”

Eugene C. agrees:

“Maybe you haven’t noticed, but the market is near an all-time high with Obama in office. Dividend payouts at an all-time high. Is that why Wall Street hates Obama?”

Steven T. puts it this way:

“Governor Romney and his ‘handlers’ are guilty of half-truths, untruths, and downright lies … I believe that Governor Romney would be a disaster …

“As President, Governor Romney would take the U.S. into its darkest days in terms of world acceptance, appreciation and respect.”

The most crucial election in American history

No matter who they’re voting for, our readers clearly agree on one crucial fact:

The decision we Americans make on Tuesday, November 6 — 40 days from today — will be heard around the world and will reverberate for generations.

It will have an enormous, direct impact on YOU, PERSONALLY: On your cost of living … your income … your taxes … your savings … your retirement … your health care … and the liberty you, your children and your children’s children will enjoy.

It will also have a profound impact on the value of the stocks you own … on the price of your gold holdings … and on every financial and investment decision you make both now and for many years to come.

Gold, Silver, Select ETFs and Options for Fiscal Cliff

by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D. on August 24, 2012 · 132 comments

CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE DISCUSSION

The vast majority of our readers — a whopping 75% — believe that the fallout from the fiscal cliff will be WORSE than the "Great Recession" of 2007-2009.

70% say unemployment will jump at least 50%; more than 70% say the average S&P 500 stock will lose at least 57% of its value.

And a staggering 80% say they’re counting on crisis investments — gold, silver, select ETFs, and options — to protect and grow their wealth as this great crisis unfolds!

Republican Senator Orrin Hatch says …

"You can call this a fiscal cliff. You can call it Taxmageddon as others have done.

"Whatever you call it, it will be a disaster for the middle class. And it will be a disaster for the small businesses that will be the engine of our economic recovery."

Democrat Laura Tyson, former economic advisor to President Bill Clinton — says,

"… we could throw ourselves over a cliff by our unwillingness to deal with long-run problems."

Fed Chairman Benjamin Bernanke writes …

"… the size of the fiscal cliff is such that there’s I think absolutely no chance that the Federal Reserve … could or would have any ability whatsoever to offset … that effect on the economy."

And thousands of our readers definitely agree!

In our poll — America on the Brink: The Great Fiscal Cliff of 2012-2013 — 59% say that the best investments now are gold and silver.

Another 21% are using inverse ETFs — investments that soar when stocks sink — to go for huge gains as America plunges over the brink …

And an additional 7% are using put options — investments that can generate gains of up to $100 for every $1 decline in stock prices — to harness the power of this great crisis.

Other preferences run the gamut — from dividend paying stocks … to growth stocks … from oil stocks … to consumer staples … and from foreign stocks … to currencies.

Several of our readers say they’re investing in farmland and preparing to live off the grid.

One reader’s only solution is a quite simple one: "Prayer," he says.

Plus, my personal blog is positively buzzing
with ideas on how to get through this crisis …

Joe M. says, "I am currently buying pre-1965 silver ‘junk’ coins which can be used at over 7 times face value to buy essentials — more as silver goes up.

"I am also putting money in AAA currencies such as Singapore and the non-Euro Nordic countries.

"My investments are in strong dividend paying companies in sectors like pharma and basic things people will always buy like alcohol and cigarettes. I will use inverse ETFs to ride down the S&P.

"How far will it fall? God only knows!"

Jake K. writes, "I expect that our retirement and savings for kids will go up in smoke except for investments in hard commodities!"

Rick is avoiding the stock market like the plague: "I am 56 years old, and I have never experienced anything close to what I believe we are about to encounter. I live in a rural community in Nebraska and am thankful for that.

"I am so distrusting of the market and all the manipulation involved, that I would rather invest in small businesses in our area."

We’re about to give you
a complimentary emergency briefing
to help you get through this crisis.

But before we do, I need you
to do two things for me:

1. SHARE YOUR VIEWS WITH US: If you haven’t done so already, click the link in your email to visit our special investor survey — America on the Brink: The Great Fiscal Cliff of 2012-13 — and give us your answers to six multiple-choice questions.

It’s easy, intriguing, and takes literally seconds. Then, when we receive your answers, we will automatically reserve a place for you at our upcoming Emergency Briefing.

2. JOIN THE DISCUSSION: After you’ve shared your thoughts in our survey, just click this link to join your fellow investors and me for a no-holds-barred discussion of this crisis.

Today’s Question of the Day:

How do YOU plan to avoid losses and to grow your wealth as America plunges off of this great fiscal cliff?

Share your thoughts with us — plus your ideas for preserving wealth and your ideas for leveraging this crisis to go for substantial profits.

Good luck and God bless!

Martin
