Mostly: Classical

BD ... the problem with Embry is that he's in an unenviable position of having to be a true believer-- and it's really for two reasons:
1) he's mandated by the mutual funds prospectus to be long and only long precious metals and equities that are levered by precious metals (which is why he doesn't like base-metals)
2) The ROBtv appearances aren't done out of charity of his own heart for the huddled masses, to avoid redemptions he needs to sell, sell, sell and sell some more.

To sum up-- I don't know whether Embry's a clown, heck, I'm not even sure he believes in the Austrian school of economics...? But, we can agree the man has a conflict of interest when it comes to selling the concept of his fund.

Maybe he's not a clown, but he's certainly a marionette of his own profession.
