The hedge fund of the people

As a US taxpapyer, you are by implication an investor in the Strategery hedge fund. I realize the bailout is no laughing matter, but this should cause at least some temporary amusement.

• Conversations with John Mauldin

  For those not familiar with John’s latest project, it is called "Conversations with John Mauldin". The most recent Conversation was with Gary Shilling and Donald Coxe. Previous Conversations included the views of Chris Whalen on the banking crisis, Lacy Hunt and Ed Easterling on the fundamentals of the economic crisis, and Nouriel Roubini. Audios and transcripts of the Conversations are being produced. Although an annual subscription for eight Conversations retail at $199, I have negotiated a special price of $149 (-25%) for Investment Postcards readers. To find out more, just click on the image above and enter code JM55 (at the end of the form), which will give you the discounted price.
