There is a lot of variation within the species. As Omar El Akkad
reports, gold bugs range from conservative investors who've made
millions from smart bets to end-of-the-world pessimists convinced
paper money is a flimsy fiat doomed to collapsed.
Doug Casey
A superstar in the world of gold bugs, Mr. Casey is the founder of
Casey Research and editor of a gold-oriented investment newsletter.
On the Casey Research website, Mr. Casey is described as a best-
selling author and "super-successful speculator" who has a track
record of investments that returned more than 100 percent in one or
two years. Though his investments picks include other commodities,
his focus is gold and he has an ardent gold bug's disdain for paper
money, which he believes is worthless if not backed by gold.
Gary North
The economic historian has strong opinions on everything from nuclear
warfare to the Y2K scare to government policies of all kinds. For
years, Mr North's newsletters have been home to some of the most
pessimistic opinions on all of the above. Even among other gold bugs,
Mr. North's ideas veer toward the extreme: He previously recommended
buying gold in anticipation of a nuclear war between the U.S. and the
Soviet Union. However, he views gold as one of the few life rafts in
the event of economic collapse.
James Turk
The former banker is a self-described gold bug who left the banking
world to put his money -- and others' -- where his mouth is. He is
the founder of GoldMoney.com, a website that lets users make payments
denominated in gold. Mr. Turk also shares the common gold bug belief
in imminent doom for paper money. His book, "The Coming Collapse of
the Dollar and How to Profit From it," was published last year.
Donald Doyle
One of the most powerful gold bugs on the planet, Mr. Doyle is the
chairman and CEO of coin and bullion dealer Blanchard & Co. In 2002
Blanchard filed an antitrust lawsuit against Barrick Gold Corp. and
U.S. bank J.P.Morgan Chase & Co. claiming the two made about $2
billion (US) in short-selling profits by suppressing the price of
gold. J.P. Morgan eventually settled, but Barrick shot back with a
libel suit.
