One of the quotes from Tuur's report which really stuck:
"A speculator doesn’t allocate capital in order to grow a business or create something. He simply takes advantage of distortions in the market to increase his personal share of existing wealth. Most speculative opportunities have political roots, taking advantage of distortions created by laws, regulations, taxes, or other government action." - Doug Casey
