What's going in the country is emblematic of what's going on in our financial world. What's being told to us doesn't comport with what's going on in the world. Rob believes there's a shortage of gold and silver and yet the prices don't move. But when you try to purchase PPE (personal protective equipment). The price of disposable gowns has gone up from 50 cents to $50. And that's just one example. Rob believes that other shortages will become obvious shortly and believes there's not much that can be done about. Buckle your seatbelt and get ready for the ride of your life.
Rob Kirby is a financial commentator and former broker who worked on an institutional trading desk for most of the 1980s and right up until 1996. He also worked for 11 years at Prebon Yamane, an international inter-dealer broker of foreign exchange and interest rate products. He spent an additional year at another money/bond broker called Freedom Bond Brokers, then spent two years at Garban Inc., another inter dealer bond brokerage in Toronto - and left the industry in 1996. He started writing in 1997, and was involved in a number of entrepreneurial pursuits from marketing Buffalo meat to a part time stint in the giftware business. In 2002, he went to work for Investor's Group, the largest Mutual Fund Company in Canada. He worked there up until September '04 when he resigned to write about the markets - and his book - from a "gold bug's" point of view. His website is called Kirby Analytics.
