Triple Lutz Report - Bob Chapman, 1935-2012

Triple Lutz Report-Robert Chapman, 1935-2012-Rest In Peace--07.JUN.12

To all of you out there listening, as always, a heart felt thanks. We've been at BlogWorld New York for the past few days, figuring out how to better do the show and better serve your needs. But I wanted to take a break and acknowledge the passing of our close friend, Bob Chapman, The International Forecaster. While we sent out an email to everyone on our list, we wanted to make sure that each of you understood the importance and reverence with which we held Bob. He was a clear voice of reason in a very confused and confusing time. Bob was a true friend to me, to the show, and to you. He helped so many people through difficult times in their lives, often anonymously; and, he helped prepare thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands around the globe, for the coming economic disruptions. Bob, words alone cannot express my gratitude. May your continued journey bring you much peace and contentment--Kerry Lutz 6-7-2012

Bob Chapman is still ALIVE not DEAD - Alex Jones

Bob Chapman needs your prayers he is still alive but ill , unlike what some media reported that he passed away , the Bob Chapman that died is a soccer player with the same name ....we will keep you updated with any new info ...

Bob Chapman : we are now in a long-term bull market in Gold & Silver

Bob Chapman : First of all, I found as a broker that a lot of people don't know how to properly invest or trade. Often brokers would have them trade; however it's not something average people normally do because they're not professionally trained. There are not a lot of people who can effectively trade and make money in the market. Perhaps 5% are successful. But I ran into a lot of people who wanted to trade, and I discouraged them unless they had years of experience. I said you've got to pick a trend. For example, we are now in a long-term bull market in gold and silver. I tell people to get in with a trend and stay with it as long as possible. People were losing money in the market because they weren't doing that. Consequently, I've been helping people set long-term investment goals. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman : The FED is talking about more quantitative easing

Bob Chapman : Well, we had an $868 billion stimulus package. The Federal Reserve then created enough money and credit to bring that package assistance up to somewhere between $2.3 and $2.5 trillion. For that, we had approximately 16 months of attempted recovery. During that period of time, five quarters averaged growth between 3% and 3.25%. I feel that was a very, very high price to pay for a relatively sideways movement in the economy. Now we're back to square one. The recovery is not continuing. The Federal Reserve is talking about more quantitative easing. They're talking about buying back the toxic securities they bought from banks at a price they won't disclose. That move essentially cleared up the banks' books but at the same time encumbered the Fed's books, which they're now going to unburden by selling the bonds back to the same people they bought them from. Now, we don't know what the loss factor is because they won't tell us, so we have to ballpark it. Out of this money that's coming and going they have to come up with a figure somewhere in the vicinity of $1.2 trillion. That's what they're going to use for this quantitative easing. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman's Latest News

Unfortunately Bob Chapman was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Bob needs your prayers in these difficult times , will keep you updated with any news regarding Bob Chapman's health . Bob Chapman will return to the airwaves as soon as he can stay tuned

Bob Chapman : I recommend the Treasuries denominated in Swiss francs and Canadian dollars.

Bob Chapman : I think the most important thing is the preservation of capital. How do you do that? My way to do that is in gold- and silver-related assets. It doesn't mean I'm right, but I think that's the best answer. For people who have lots of money and don't want it all in gold and silver, I recommend the Treasuries denominated in Swiss francs and Canadian dollars. Some people want income. You have oil and gas trusts. There's nothing wrong with them. They pay very well, about 7% a month. That's a fit for some people. But getting in the general market I think is too dangerous, like buying a 10-year Treasury note and getting a 2.42% yield when I think inflation is much higher than that. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman favorite Gold & Silver Mining Companies

Bob Chapman : I think the bigger companies, Agnico-Eagle and Goldcorp, will buy other juniors that are coming along. It's easier for them to do that. Silver Standard has been selling some properties to fund other acquisitions. Minefinders continues to develop new properties. They have one called La Bolsa in Mexico near the border with Arizona that they're developing right now. And they just found a good mineralized extension on their producing Dolores mine in Mexico. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman : Why I like Agnico-Eagle ?

Bob Chapman : First of all, I know the company quite well. I've known the president of the company, Sean Boyd, for about 18 years. I consider him a good friend. The subscribers to my publication own a lot of this stock; same thing for Goldcorp. These are fine companies with excellent management. The same is true for Silver Standard, which is more in the silver vein. Minefinders is a smaller company producing gold and silver. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman : These are The Stocks I Recommend

Bob Chapman : Well, I recommend four stocks, Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (NYSE:AEM; TSX:AEM), Goldcorp Inc. (NYSE:GG; TSX:G), Silver Standard Resources Inc. (TSX:SSO; NASDAQ:SSRI) and Minefinders Corporation (TSX:MFL; NYSE:MFN). That's it. If people want to speculate, that's fine.

Bob Chapman : Every Currency in the World went down versus Gold

Bob Chapman : I think that on the U.S. Dollar Index (USDX), the dollar could go down to the 45 mark. On the other hand it's about 82 right now, down from 89 and up from 74, six or seven months ago. If you think the dollar is going to go down in value, as I do, in order to hedge against that one could buy Treasury Securities denominated in Swiss francs or Canadian dollars. I think those two currencies will do well versus the dollar. If you look at the figures for the last seven years, you'll find that every currency in the world went down versus gold. In the first six months of 2010, most of the major currencies went down 12% or 13%. The final arbiter here is gold. The question is who's going to win? Is gold going to become the ultimate currency or is it the dollar or will it be another currency? It's hard for another currency to compete with gold with all the debt out there and all the problems the world's got when you have a fiat currency that's backed by nothing. The only currency out there that has a backing of gold is the euro; it used to be that 15% of the currency was backed by gold, but now it's about 7%.

Bob Chapman : I do not recommend Gold & Silver ETFs

Bob Chapman : While I do recommend a few gold stocks, I do not buy stocks. I have no accounts. My family has no accounts. Period. I buy bullion and coins and I do it frequently. I'm a big believer in both. I do not recommend exchange-traded funds (ETFs) because I do not believe they have gold and silver in the amounts close to 100% of what they're supposed to be holding. Neither do any of the hedge fund managers because most of them are not getting involved in that area. I think it's going to end up being a scandal.- in theaureport.com

The US Government , the FED & other Central Banks are suppressing the Price of Gold & Silver

Bob Chapman : It has been the official policy of the United States government and the Federal Reserve and other Central Banks to suppress the price of gold and silver.
They do it through the President's Working Group on Financial Markets, which was instituted in August of 1988. They are using that to interfere in the market. Look at the markets from day to day. I used to be a tape reader and I was a trader for 25 years. You get rhythms from markets. You can see the Fed in there along with the Treasury department making the market do things that they want it to do.

Bob Chapman : Another Quantitative Easing is on the Way

Bob Chapman : Well, we had an $868 billion stimulus package. The Federal Reserve then created enough money and credit to bring that package assistance up to somewhere between $2.3 and $2.5 trillion. For that, we had approximately 16 months of attempted recovery. During that period of time, five quarters averaged growth between 3% and 3.25%. I feel that was a very, very high price to pay for a relatively sideways movement in the economy. Now we're back to square one. The recovery is not continuing. The Federal Reserve is talking about more quantitative easing. They're talking about buying back the toxic securities they bought from banks at a price they won't disclose.

Now, we don't know what the loss factor is because they won't tell us, so we have to ballpark it. Out of this money that's coming and going they have to come up with a figure somewhere in the vicinity of $1.2 trillion. That's what they're going to use for this quantitative easing. - in the theaureport

Bob Chapman : I am doing 30 hours of programming a week.

Bob Chapman : Well, that's a good question. But it's wrong. The reason it's wrong is that I'm doing 30 hours of programming a week. I'm doing it on AM, FM, satellite and shortwave radio and on the Internet. I'm reaching all kinds of audiences all over the world. That is not a core constituency. That is the global population. We have subscribers everywhere, including some important people, whom I'll not mention. One of the reasons that we keep the cost of the publication at the low level we do is because we want people to be able to access alternative information. People will only go so far in trying to discover what's going on. There are steps that you can take by putting the mosaic together. In over 20 years, our record in all aspects in the publication has been superlative. Two months ago I said in The International Forecaster as well as on radio that I believed the Fed was going to go to the second stage of quantitative easing. I explained the reasons why, and lo and behold it happened. How did I come to that conclusion? The first thing was that the stock market started to rally. Then I saw information generally available saying that the economy was looking better when in fact it wasn't. There had to be another reason for major Wall Street firms going long on the market in a very big way.- in theaureport

Where does Bob Chapman get his figures from?

Bob Chapman : Well, that's very complex. I go to a number of places. But I think the easy way to answer that is to go to John Williams' site and the numbers are all there. He does the same thing that I do. I don't have a monopoly on questioning things. I think you would find that people who are involved in economic analysis often vehemently argue with each other over different interpretations of data. It's certainly being reflected in part with the ascendency of gold and silver prices.- in theaureport

Bob Chapman My Carrier as a Counterintelligence Agent

Bob Chapman :  Number one: I spent three years in counterintelligence for the United States government and worked with the National Security Agency as well as an adjunct agency to the Central Intelligence Agency in army counterintelligence against the Russians in Europe. The first thing I learned was that the Japanese diplomatic code had been broken in 1937. That was declassified in 1968. I found out that the United States government knew everything that the Japanese were doing. I wasn't very happy with that, so I started to think outside the box. I started to look jaundiced at things that were being done, especially because I was spying on the Russians. After I left government service, I maintained the same kind of attitude toward what government had to say. And it wasn't just the U.S. government. It's all governments. I had a different perspective than I had prior to being engaged in counterintelligence work. As far as the statistics that I think you're referring to, like the CPI (consumer price index) and the unemployment figures, John Williams (www.shadowstats.com) is another economist who does what I do and his figures come out the same as mine. Real unemployment is not 9.8%. If you put all of U6 together (the Bureau of Labor Statistics measures six types of unemployment, U1-U6) and removed the birth/death ratio, you're talking about 21.5% unemployment. So why doesn't the government tell the public all about U6? It's a good question. But the figures are all bogus. - in theaureport

Bob Chapman : We are in a long-term bull market in gold and silver get in with the trend and stay with it as long as possible

Bob Chapman : First of all, I found as a broker that a lot of people don't know how to properly invest or trade.

Bob Chapman : How I started The International Forecaster

Bob Chapman : The International Forecaster has been in production for over 20 years. It came about because I retired at 52 and being a "Type A" personality I found I couldn't live life without doing something with my mind. Playing golf and tennis everyday was a bore, so I started The International Forecaster. I had spent 28 years as a broker and owned my own firm for many years. I was probably the largest gold/silver stockbroker in the United States, perhaps even the world. We had 6,000 clients when we sold the company. I really enjoy writing and doing radio. Occasionally I'll do television. It really fits me. I should've been in journalism. But then again, what would've happened is that I wouldn't have had the background to be a good journalist. - in theaureport.com
