Take a look at the chart below for the S&P 500, and it is clear that we are at the top, of a top, of a top. How much new stock do you want to buy here? Not much. Virtually every technical trading service I follow, including my own, is now flashing distressed warning signals.

Traders have been watching in complete awe the rapid decent of the price of gold, which is emerging as the most despised asset class of 2013. But it is becoming increasingly apparent that the collapse of prices for the barbarous relic is part of a much larger, longer-term macro trend. It isn?t just the yellow

I am pleased to announce the introduction of my first major upgrade, The Mad Day Trader.

With smoke still rising from the ruins of the recent silver crash, I thought I?d touch base with a wizened and grizzled old veteran who still remembers the last time a bubble popped for the white metal.

One of the highlights of last week?s SkyBridge Alternatives Conference was the blowout party on Wednesday night (click here for the blow by blow description). Seeking refuge from a band that was blasting my ears out, and fleeing the nubile young bodies that kept bumping up against me and spilling my margaritas, I sought out

This was the short squeeze that was begging to happen. Five guys owned 50% of the company, including the visionary founder, Elon Musk. Of the remaining float, 45% had been borrowed and sold short by hedge funds. All that was needed to ignite a rally was for someone to say ?Boo.? That is exactly what
