flying Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) disappointing for the gold aficionados is the combination of a weaker US-Dollar and a weaker Gold price. Well today was a nice day for gold 1.24% & a really nice day for Silver 4.21% rise Glad to see it.... as always Edited March 5, 2011 by flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flying Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) now 38.91 Impressive isnt it? My original plan was to swap out 25% at 47/1 ( I only did 15% ) Then I was going to do another 25% @ 37/1 & 27/1 with the final @ 17/1 if it should happen But as I said... I have cooled on that idea...although with 37/1 in sight it is tempting Again though I look at my numbers for AU & AG since 08 & it is hard to argue....AG is smoking...AU is no slouch but AG has been outperforming by more than 2x Edited March 7, 2011 by flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderpuff Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 In 1900 you could buy 2 good suits for one ounce of gold. Today one ounce of gold will buy you 2 good suits. The "value" of gold has held stead while paper money is good only to wipe your ass. In Germany is there a person named bush jr? While the US has an incompetent ideologue in charge i expect the dollar to continue to fall as per Bernanke's grand plan. Thus gold will have to always rise in $ terms. I wonder how long 1.5 trillion $ yearly defecits are sustainable? my guess? not long. Mrs Pelosi you are great. Thank you for wrecking my country & it's economy.

Naam Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 In 1900 you could buy 2 good suits for one ounce of gold.Today one ounce of gold will buy you 2 good suits. there is no definition for a "good suit". some people might think a $ 200 suit is a good suit, others who's tailor is located in London's Savile Row might say "a good suit starts at £ 3,500". and if you enter a tailorshop in Savile Row and demand two good suits for an ounce of gold you will be politely asked to sit down and wait for those friendly men in white who will adorn you with a white garment which has very long sleeves and long decorative tassels which they will knot together that you are comfortable.

churchill Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 'The prospects for precious metals will ultimately depend on the central banks determination to control inflation. If only it was so simple; but a higher interest rate environment will break the banks, which are full of dodgy loans dating from credit-crunch days. So what does a central banker do? Does he squeeze inflation out of the system, while governments slash their spending, or does he find another way of rigging the markets, while governments dither over their deteriorating finances?' http://www.financeandeconomics.org/Articles%20archive/2011.03.07%20Crunchtime.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are, IMO, believable ideas that Brown flogged off the UK gold at rock bottom prices to save a couple of banks with massive short positions that had to be covered. Well Argentina kept taking the banks losses and turning them into public debt. Finally the entire system collapsed. The USA government, took all the toxic debt the bank had, and put it on the tax payers backs, bought 2 bankrupt auto makers, and made that public debt, then loaned unlimited money to the banks at less than .5% interest, which they then bought government bonds at 3.5% interest, so the fed could then print more money. Gee do you really think this Ponzi scheme will work?? I do not think JPM will be bailed out this time.
