Does the word 'speculator' set off any alarm bells? It should. Speculation is what caused the Great Depression. It's all educated voodoo, guessing, and hocus pokus.

Doug Casey is an expert in the field of mineral and energy investing. I have read many of his articles but have never paid for a subscription. If you are looking for someone to pay for advice, he is a good one. However, he leans toward little microcap energy and minteral firms. These are definately the best way to profit from the current bull. But, they are a wild ride, hence the word 'speculator'. But beyond that, Doug Casey has a good pulse on macro trends involving these areas. You can catch some of his articles for free on such sites as 321gold.com and 321energy.com. But, they never include specific firms when free. I also cover these areas on my blog: http://gmoolah.blogspot.com. But, my blog is really not for novices, so take care. Also, I am a market technitian first and foremost which can frustrate people. I rarely deep dive into companies but I am trying to change.
