Vancouver, British Columbia, January 16, 2012 - Jay Taylor, publisher of the J Taylor's Gold, Energy & Tech Stocks newsletter, and Ian Gordon, economic forecaster and author of "The Long Wave Analyst" discuss the market outlook for 2012 on Jay Taylor's weekly VoiceAmerica Radio Show, "Turning Hard Times into Good Times".

Ian Gordon, a student of the Kondratieff Cycle, believes we are now in one of the largest Kondratieff contractions in history and that at its conclusion life as we have known it will no longer exist.

Between 1923 and 1925, Nicolai Kondratieff discovered a long-term economic cycle beginning in 1789, primarily based on commodity prices, interest rates and trade. Ian Gordon has improved upon this concept by including multiple factors nor previously recognized. Based on his interpretation of the Longwave Cycle, Gordon accurately predicted the current economic downturn and credit crisis. Gordon predicts the Dow to bottom at 1,000 and gold to rise to $4,000. But how soon? How will we end 2012?
