Investing in Hard Assets.
Bubba opens up the show by looking back at last week’s trading action while commenting on the lack of volume and volatility. Bubba expresses concerns about the average investor being led down the path of destruction. The economy is in sad shape and the powers that be have no idea what to do next.

The two discuss the 2016 presidential election and the political system as a whole. Both agree that Trump has a ton of momentum. Jane expresses her excitement for Super Tuesday.
Bubba brings in Mike McGlone and they get right to it, discussing the latest movements in the market. Mike believes the recent rally is one to sell and holds many concerns over the current state of the markets. Mike feels this is a time to be very cautious. He believes investors should look to investing in some hard assets. He still favors Gold, silver and the bonds.
As the show winds down, Bubba asks Mike if the FED should be ended, revamped or left alone. Mike answers by telling us that we should seek to benefit from the ignorance of the FED. Bubba believes that the FED needs a face lift and is very unhappy with the way they are running things.
