There is no doubt about it - gold is getting a lot of press and media attention lately. So the question is, is the move in gold over or is it just beginning?

I don’t believe the move is over on the upside for gold, but in my new two-minute video I’m going to share with you an alternative to gold that should do just as well for many of the same reasons. This is a big liquid market and has great upside potential and is less volatile than gold.

As always, our videos are free to view and do not require any registration. If you think this is an important video, I strongly suggest you share it with your friends and comment about it on our blog.

All the best,

U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan ordered federal regulators to explain why they didn't investigate whether executives at Bank of America Corp. (BAC) misled shareholders about bonuses paid by Merrill Lynch.   Rakoff delayed the approval of Bank of America's proposed $33 million settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over the bonus affair, which arose after the bank’s acquisition of Merrill Lynch in September 2008 for $50 billion.   The SEC charged that a proxy statement by Bank of America in November misled investors as it stated that Merrill Lynch would not pay year-end bonuses without Bank of America's consent. However, Bank of America had already authorized Merrill Lynch to pay up to $5.8 billion in bonuses and didn't share that information with shareholders. That rendered a statement Bank of America mailed to 283,000 shareholders of both companies about the Merrill Lynch deal materially false ...

Government budget hits all-time insanity… record monthly, year-to-date deficits… “Cash for clunkers” helps GM, but not economy… July retail sales stage surprise fall… Fed plans exit strategy, ends bond buys… why the FOMC is still not helping you… Byron King’s crude reality: How Canada could be the next Saudi Arabia…

It’s official: Our government ran a record $180.7 billion over budget in July, the Treasury Department said today. That’s just a bit over Wall Street expectations and just under the Congressional Budget Office estimate we reported Monday. Thus the government tab so far this fiscal year is a record $1.27 trillion, not the record $1.3 trillion the CBO guessed earlier this week. Phew… what a relief.

A few more scary details:

The budget deficit is still on track to exceed $1.8 trillion by October, the end of the fiscal year. That would be four times last year’s record budget July spending rose to over ...

TAMPA, FL - MagneGas Corporation (OTCBB: MNGA), a producer of a metal cutting fuel and natural gas alternative made from liquid waste, announced today that it has received its most significant independent media attention to date, in the form of a feature article in Welding Journal

Though it’s not getting the frenzy of media attention it received in the past several months, the World Health Organization and Center for Disease Control say the H1N1 (swine flu) is still spreading worldwide and remains a constant threat. Pharmaceutical companies are working to overcome modern challenges as the virus mutates, and are racing to develop and manufacture enough vaccines to protect citizens on mass scales.

Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corp. operates through its two wholly owned subsidiaries as a specialty pharmaceutical company. The company today announced that its Adamis Viral Therapies subsidiary’s patented vaccine technology induces immunity against the influenza virus by targeting and attacking regions of the virus that aren’t subject to mutation.

According to the company, the influenza virus rapidly mutates, generating a need for reformulated vaccines every year. As a result, conventional vaccines that stimulate antibody responses become ineffective as the virus mutates.

Through the combination of

This story hasn't caught a lot of media attention, and its surely hasn't caught the market's attention, and I have been wondering why.
