Silver is a great investment right now and prices could easily shoot above $20 per ounce by the end of this year.  I predict that with the right call options on silver you can make over 100% before the end of the year. In just a moment I’ll give you all the information you need to take action on an options pick on silver with explosive profit potential.  But first, I want to explain why silver will blast higher.

Silver is a precious metal therefore it does great when people get worried about the stock market, inflation and geopolitical risk.

Silver is a hard asset that holds its value in inflationary times and maintains its purchasing power.  We could see a steep rise in inflation due to all this out-of-control government money printing that’s going on these days.  The deficit this year is on track to be $1.8 trillion and the national

June 3 (Bloomberg) — Peru’s first Exchange Traded Fund will start trading on the New York Stock Exchange by the “middle of June,” said the chief executive officer of Global X Management Company LLC, a New York-based asset manager.

“The stock market has risen a lot, investors are bullish, and that’s helping us,” Bruno del Ama, the New York-based CEO of Global X, said in a phone interview. “We’re giving access to the Peruvian market and in the future people can go short in Peru, which is an option that doesn’t exist today.”

Global X and Barclays Plc have been competing to introduce the first Peruvian ETF, aiming to lure global investors to the world’s best performing stock market this year. The funds issue a number of shares and trade throughout the day like stocks. Most are designed to passively

For quite some time I was interested in recommending that my readers invest in Russia. I still had concerns about some political issues and organized crime in the country.  Most experts out there tell people to stay away from Russia, so I knew I had to do further research myself.

One day I told my lovely wife to get her passport ready because we were going to Moscow.  She was quite excited because Moscow is a shopping mecca with many historical sites to see.  But, I assure you—I was there for business.

We traveled to Russia in December of last year and I saw firsthand how the country operates.  I observed that the Russians are a hard working and productive people that just want the best for their families.  Russians are striving for a better quality of life just like anyone else.  I knew right away that the country offers investor’s high

India’s weekend election gives the ruling Congress Party a big win and paves the way for economic reforms.

India’s ruling Congress Party has a goal of helping India’s poor and pushes free-market reforms.

After this election, India is apt to open up its retail, insurance and banking sectors to more foreign investment.   Moreover, the government may reduce its ownership in refineries, banks and fertilizer companies.

This election could pave the way for a large amount of capital to flow into Indian stocks.

Bombay Stock Exchange stocks are taking off as investors look optimistically at a critical election victory for the Congress Party-led alliance.

The best way to play India: PowerShares India (NYSE: PIN). This Exchange Traded Fund holds a nice basket of Indian stocks and seeks to mirror the Indian stock market measured by the Indus India index.

Why invest in commodities? Two and a half billion people are going to live like Americans in the next 20 years and prices go up over time, that’s the nature of inflation.

We are in the middle of a global economic crisis and commodities are on sale. Buy commodities now while they are still cheap. When we finally emerge from this global economic crisis — prices will explode higher. I’m talking about another long-term bull market in commodities. Let me explain…

Inflation Will Push Commodities Prices Higher

Our Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is an inflationist, which is an advocate of the policy of deliberate inflation achieved by increasing the supply of available currency and credit. They call him helicopter Ben because he once quoted a statement made by Milton Friedman, about using a “helicopter drop” of money into the economy to fight deflation.

Bernanke is a student of the causes of

When Bad is Good

We’re nearly a month into the New Year, the United States has a new President, and many investors are looking forward with more than a little trepidation. They’re wondering if it’s at all possible to eke out a few gains in the coming months.

It’s a safe bet most investors didn’t do well last year. A quick look at how the major indexes have down in the last 13 months sums it up fairly well: the DOW is down 39%, the S&P fell 43%, and the Nasdaq slid nearly 44% since the beginning of 2008.
