You might have heard about Dallas Mavericks owner, media owner, and dotcom lotto winner Mark Cuban's alleged case of insider trading by the SEC.&nbsp; If not, I made reference to in a recent piece I did called &quot;SEC&nbsp;Shame.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; Now it's Cuban's turn to shine.

In 2006, Ron Insana&rsquo;s &ldquo;popularity&rdquo; with the sheep viewers of CNBC led to his resignation in order to start a fund of hedge funds (FoF).

  
I don&rsquo;t know the details of this arrangement, but I&rsquo;d say he was approached by some guys who had some access to investment capital, and they wanted to leverage Insana&rsquo;s &ldquo;popularity&rdquo; on CNBC as a way to raise more capital.

While still working on Wall Street, I began recommending gold in late 2001 to my clients just when the bull market had commenced.

<description><![CDATA[Just a quick post about the so-called hedge fund probe, which is really nothing more than a PR&nbsp;campaign to make it seem as if&nbsp;Washington and the SEC&nbsp;are going after the crooks.
In the past I&nbsp;have mentioned that 99%&nbsp;of all hedge funds engage in insider trading.&nbsp; I&nbsp;happen to know this for a fact.&nbsp;I don't expect this confession to win me any new business from hedge funds. It might even cost me some business, but oh well.&nbsp;I&nbsp;have no interest in provi... <a href="http://www.avaresearch.com/avanew/articles/955/The-Truth-About-Hedge-Funds.html">more</a>]]></description>

Because I cover so many things, from investment and economic analysis, to healthcare and politics, my time continues to become more limited.

After suffering through nearly five years of a very severe recession, the worst is yet to come for the Greek people. According to consensus estimates it will take twelve years for the Greek economy to regain its pre-recession output.

The Facebook pump-and-dump scam has played out just as I predicted. After only a couple of months, naive shareholders who feel for this scam have already lost nearly $45 billion as the result of a collapse in the share price of more than 50% from the IPO high of $45.
  
But this $45 billion hasn't been a loss for those on the other side of the trade. Short sellers aside, the fact is that the Facebook scam has created several billionaires overnight, namely the executives of Facebook, ... <a href="http://www.avaresearch.com/avanew/articles/1097/Critical-Lessons-From-The-Facebook-Scam-A-Blast-From-The-Past.html">more</a>]]></description>
