Don believes that the financial media and government tend to release bullish information which is inaccurate and misleading. He believes the real threat is the economy not coming back to life, since the Fed rarely gets anything right. A new liquidity crisis or "Lehmann moment" is coming. The Fed will have to react to the economy instead of steering it.

Don is bullish on gold and silver and thinks that commodities such as energy, copper and most others will rise this decade. He believes we will also have a rally in the dollar as a fear trade.

Don predicts that gold will have a pullback to the $1740 region once Wall Street realizes there won't be a soft landing. He believes silver will eventually reach $100. This will be preceded by a growing supply deficit which will manifest in a shortage of 1000 ounce bars.

Don Durrett received an MBA from California State University Bakersfield in 1990. He has worked in IT-related positions for 20+ years. He has been a gold investor since 1991, with a focus on Junior Mining stocks since 2004.

He followed up the book with a website (www.goldstockdata.com) to provide data, tools, and analysis for gold and silver stock investors. His gold and silver mining stock newsletter is widely regarded as one of the best. He is a frequent guest on financial podcasts and a contributor to SeekingAlpha.com.
