Gold will probably trade higher from here as the central banks still buying Gold and the global economic situation has not improved that much says Tim Harvey, Sr. VP of ETF Securities, the unrest in Greece and southern Europe affects the price of Gold hugely in its store value as an inflation hedge and other factors why people invest in Gold , the supply of Gold is health there is no squeeze in supply says Tim Harvey but still with Gold we see more buyers coming in like China a huge net buyers of Gold as well as a huge miner of Gold

silver under-perform gold substantially in the second quarter
we should see gold prices at $1650 over the next second half of the year says Phil Streible,
The gold has never been more valuable : 1500 dollars per ounce: the reasons for a historical record.The yellow metal rose on 20 April to a record high 1500.70 dollars an ounce. Even If the markets got carried away since the beginning of the year, the upward trend is more persistent It dates back a decade back at least. The real upward trend started in April 2001 after an ounce reached a low of 253.85 dollars. "Among the reasons for this growth: the awakening of the emerging countries. "The central banks of those countries are buying gold to make up the standard ratio of gold in their reserves vis-à-vis Western countries," and especially the US Dollar. China (1.8% of its reserves with 1 000 tonnes) and India (8.5% with 550 tonnes) in recent years have been the biggest buyers of gold in the world. But they are far from the ratios of the United States (75% with 8 100 tonnes), Germany (71% with 3 400 tonnes) and Italy and France (68% with about 2 400 tonnes), according to figures from the World Gold Council dated January. It is also the demand from emerging countries which pushed on the rise the prices of other commodities , awakening and fears of inflation. Investors are turning to the safe haven that is gold, but also to Silver, which reached 40 Dollars an ounce in April , its highest level since February 1980. The fear of inflation also feeds from the risks associated with crises in the Arab world and the Japanese drama. As the peak of the euro, which traded until last month $ 1.43, it also encourages the purchase of gold, denominated in U.S. currency. Demand from emerging markets, falling dollar, the specter of inflation, geopolitical instability ... these causes in 2008 pushed gold to a record level ... at 850 dollars! Still far from the record of 1980, to 825 dollars, equivalent to about 2500 dollars, taking into account inflation. And analysts still do not see the trend reversing. Especially since the renewed concern about the sovereign debt of countries in the euro area - after Greece and Ireland, Portugal - also pushes the purchase of gold, less risky in times of volatility. Hedge funds also mingle more in the battle. As for producers, they are pleased. "The higher the gold price is , the more we can raise money on the stock market, enhance our investment capabilities and discover deposits, said a Gold miner based in Africa What we discovered in the past and we did not pay much attention to before , today it becomes much more interesting! "
Andrew Gause - The Real World of Money with PATRICK TIMPONE - July 2, 2011
if the Us government defaults the mutual funds will plummet , all the bonds funds that people hold their money in will default , Cash is not money , Cash are federal reserve notes and until you turn those notes in what the constitution defines as money you have no money you are a creditor , this is a bad place to be "no state shall make anything but Gold and Silver coin a tender in payment of debt " says the constitution , so unless you have any money you are a creditor and if you are a creditor you do not want that default to happen , IOU notes are not money whether we keep it in electronic form or in paper form it is still a claim it is not MONEY
Jim Cramer : Gold is not in a bubble , gold is not just another commodity , Gold is a reserve currency an incredibly scarce currency "....the seemingly inexorable rise in the price of gold. now, i have said it a million times and I'll say it again, your portfolio, no portfolio's complete without some exposure to the pressure metal. from 2000 to 2010, gold increased in price every single year. and over that period, it beat the performance of the s&p 500. i think it has the power to go higher. see, gold is not in some kind of a bubble. you hear that chatter all the time. I've been hearing since I've been recommending it when the show started. i know people look at the rally over the last few years and conclude it's got to be a bubble, it has to be a bubble. anything that goes up that far that fast is doomed to crash down harder and it's some sort of law of gravity that's supposed to govern the markets. it doesn't work like that, ladies and gentlemen, it's not a bubble. this is, in fact, one of the simplest and easiest to understand stories out there, and it's not about interest rates. this is a scarcity story that's all about supply and demand. people all over the world want to own gold because it holds its value when paper currency is being devalued as it is all over the world. the amount of money that's being printed globally is outrageous. and gold, this stuff, is the best hedge out there against the power of the printing press. you know it even worked in Germany, it will work again. and that's why there's so much demand for gold in the people's republic of china. the people there don't trust their government. they certainly don't trust their currency. it's why central banks have been buying the stuff, they used to be sellers. gold is not just another commodity like copper, aluminum and lumber, it's a currency that hold its value. you don't bring lumber to -- when you're on the road, you don't say, hey, I've got lumber with me, it's worth something everywhere i go. this works everywhere. and even better, it's an incredibly scarce currency. the scarcity value alone is enormous. because it's not like we've been finding vast new gold deposits. as someone who went to the exhibit of king tut in Cairo, it helps to remember there was more gold in that one exhibit than found in the entire world in the last few years. it's a pretty limited supply of the stuff, but demand keeps increasing. limited supply plus higher demand equals higher prices. now, throw in the fact that gold's the world's oldest status symbol. and you can understand the demand for jewelry coming from rising middle classes and fast-growing emerging markets like china and India. this demand from Indian wedding season alone is enough to make gold a terrific buy at the beginning of September every year. sounds crazy, right?"
Philipp Vorndran of Flossbach & von Storch and James Turk, of the GoldMoney Foundation, about Gold Silver the debt situation in Europe Greece Germany Belgium Italy the UK the Gold standard the future of capitalism and much more : "for every one hundred dollars the US government is now spending 40 percent comes from debt only 60 comes from revenue , historically whenever you are at that 40% level you are very very close to hyperinflation , it shows that the market is not willing to lend to the government and if the government does not cut its spending , the central banks steps in and turns that government debts into currency which is exactly what happened here (in Germany ) in the 1920s with the Reichsmark " says James Turk
Peter Schiff : "The Dollar has no floor , so the Gold has no ceiling " , Peter Schiff said , he predicts $5000 an ounce gold in the next decade but it could happen really earlier he said in a recent interview , but the possibility of a 5 digit gold in the order of $10000 is also possible as there is no floor for the dollar to fall into so there is really no ceilling for the Gold to go up to , Gold could go to the infinity measured in dollar terms
Bob Chapman goes once again to explain the Dodd-Frank law and its implications on the average Gold & silver coins bullion or shares buyers , the story was first put out by Zerohedge and obviously either intentionally or not was taken way out of contest , many were led to believe that "trading over the counter gold and silver will become illegal starting July 15" this is one of the most distorted stories says Bob Chapman , what is banned under the Dodd-Frank is the ability of the American corporations to trade in Forex in Foreign exchange in Gold and Silver you can no longer do so it is a very very small segment of the market it attracts big time speculators people who want real high leverage and a few average people by in large it is a pro market secondly it has absolutely nothing to do with gold and silver coins bullion or shares, there is nothing in that law that has or says anything pertaining to gold and silver coins bullion or shares PERIOD......

Chinese counterfeiters are second to none , they are the world masters in counterfeiting everything on the surface of the earth and of course they do counterfeit Gold and Silver coins and bars too , fake gold and silver coins are big business. and it is getting bigger with the price of the precious metals soaring , Indeed with Spot Silver prices rising the Chinese and others are cranking out millions of fake coins...I mean millions and the fakes are getting so good even advanced dealers and graders are being fooled! Many of these so called replicas "I'd say MOST" are unmarked and are outright dangerous.There a few things that will help you detect that they're fakes . They are even now making fake junk Quarters and Dimes. It's very lucrative for them .There are even better fakes that use 90% Silver, but they are not used on junk coins due to production costs. Only buy higher dollar coins from a reputable dealer, in PCGS, NGC, ICG or ANACS slabs! NEVER FROM CHINA...Unless you want a few fake specimens, which isn't a bad idea.my role of thumb is avoid anything Made in China and not just for gold and silver

These manipulated modestly low silver prices are getting annoying. Either they let go of the chains and leave it to the free market, or they suppress it down to $25, JP Morgue makes the switch from all short to all long on silver, and then we all watch the price skyrocket.
I understand that these flat, low silver prices are good for industry, especially for solar panel manufacturers, but its really not worth it. They should bring it down to $25 let all industries buy all of the silver they’ll ever need for the next 100 years, then let it skyrocket.

David Morgan on the Ellis Martin Report discussing the Dollars, Debt and Danger of hyperinflation : "what's coming unfortunately is the great day of reckoning , at some point the dollar collapse happens and at some sense it is happening in other words it is not usually an overnight anomaly where all the banks close that's not probably what's going to take place , what's happens is as we are witnessing more and more nation stats start to say I do not want any more dollars , the FED becomes the buyer of the last resort of the bond market which is true as it is still going on until June 30th when QE2 ends , and right now the FED is buying 80 percent of the bond offer after the 30th of June who is going to step in and buy it , China ? Russia ? Japan ? I do not know I doubt any of them will buy that much they may buy some , so we get to the end game and the end game is I do not want the dollar anymore , and the problem with this is it is still interconnected for the global economy because the dollar is still the reserve currency so if you stop wanting the dollar what do you want ? and it does not take much of the bond market to go to the security of Gold to move the prices in paper terms to an astronomically higher level and that's the situation we are facing , China is increasing its gold holdings Russia is increasing its gold holdings India increased its gold holdings , Central bankers have become net buyers of gold recently as they were net sellers for a very long period of time , so e are getting near the end ...so hopefully it gets to a point where an adjustment can be made in other words we go back to some kind of Gold standard or pseudo gold standard or a commodity basket or something that have faith in it we are not there yet but we are getting there very rapidly ...says David morgan
Famed investor Jim Rogers was asked "where would gold be a year from now ?" in a Thomson Reuters Q&A session , his answer was : "I don't have a clue , I do have a clue that Gold will certainly go over $2000/oz , Gold's all time high adjusted for inflation would be well over $2000 , it will go there , I mean you can dream I have no idea , if the dollar does collapse in the next ten years which I expect , you pick your number when you have declining currencies and things are denominated in US Dollars who knows what the prices will be , they will be unbelievably high they gonna be much higher than even I believe , the numbers are gonna be staggering , it is always that way in a bull market , if you and I had sat here in 1980 to 1992 and we talked about what the prices will be five ten years later nobody would have believed this or even
Peter Schiff: Gold is worth its intrinsic value it has unique and special properties that other metals do not have , you comparing Gold to paper , what is the federal reserve note worth what a piece of paper that is printed by the US government what is that worth ?!?!? I mean you cannot use it for anything it is just paper but it already has been written on , I mean it is not soft enough to use as toilet tissue , what you gonna do with it ?!?!?!" Peter Schiff of Euro Pacific Capital believes that the Gold standard could happen even sooner than a five years from now , and the reason for that is we have a dollar crisis we have a currency crisis that brings on an even worse financial crisis and I think that currency crisis is coming soon it is going to send the dollar plunging consumer prices and interest rates surging and we gonna be in a much deeper recession and the only way to have a real economy a sound economy is to discipline the government to prevent them from deficit spending and the only way to do that is with the Gold Standard says Peter Schiff

Mining Shares Versus Gold Prices the reasons for the relative underperformance of shares in gold and silver mining companies versus the performance of the metals Costs for miners have risen substantially in recent years due to rising prices and environmental regulations widening the gap between mining share prices and the price of gold, Charlie Morris, head of absolute return at HSBC Global Asset Management told CNBC Friday, the tremendous potential in mining stocks and how these have been suppressed too, despite rising gold prices. Given their tiny market capitalization he expects that when the rush comes, they will rise in value very rapidly and outshine even the dotcom bubble.
I think you can actually get the shares in paper form sent to you so it's not just an entitlement that can be claimed by a broker or something which you paid for but are not owning.

David Morgan thinks that the end of QE3 by the 30th of this month is Bernanke's way of testing the gold market and measuring inflationary fears , David thinks that Bernanke will put a deflationary scare into the global market place to see what is the gold reaction going to be , what he is doing is withdrawing a lot of liquidity from the markets to see if there is a bigger demand for US dollars and less demand for gold David Morgan explains ...
James Turk director of GoldMoney Foundation interviews Sean Fieler about IRS treatment of gold at the federal level is a big impediment to using gold and silver as money. Sean Fieler : "...what gold lacked for so long is a little more credibility the realizing that it is not just people at the margins that are concerned about this who think this the solution but this is the logical given the problems we have " "
Danielle Park explains what derivatives are , today estimated amounts of derivatives are 1.2 quadrillion dollars of derivatives out there thanks to the creativity of Wall Street and big Banks , that's quadrillion not a trillion , back in the late nineties the estimated amounts of derivatives was around 200 billion dollars so you can see the big jump we did since then...a quadrillion is if you want to count one dollar per second starting from now it will take you 32 million years to do it , with all that amount of money soon going to start chasing the real few assets on the market like Gold and silver and other commodities one can only expect the Commodity Inflation to Come Off The Boil and probably the crash of the dollar all together ...you will be happy if you hoarded gold and silver , governments and central banks cannot print gold and silver into oblivion as they can do with fiat money....People investing in commodities are moving into real things and away from fiat currency. If she or the UN is upset about commodity prices, stop the money printing!
James Turk: "We could see gold in backwardation too as people become more and more worried about the inflationary consequences of the money printing that's going on around the world. Silver always leads - in bull markets it leads on the upside and in bear markets it leads on the downside. Maybe as precious metals move into backwardation, silver is again giving us an important message that it is leading and gold will eventually follow." - in mineweb.com
Gaddafi was planning to introduce the Gold Dinar just before the war ,Gaddafi also wanted Gold in return for his Oil , some say this was the real cause behind the NATO war against Libya .. the banksters feel to be threatened by the return to a honest currency, gold and silver backed, they actually want a world currency completely online! But I don't think India, Russia, China, and other countries want it.Even Europe begins to understand the necessity of a gold standard... even with the inconveniences...people who don't hold gold are finished anyways but it seems that gold is the only way to stop the transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich...the only way to protect the value from inflation , the only reason the US haven't collapsed yet is because the dollar is still the global reserve currency, (no matter how much money they print it doesn't devalue the dollar because the whole world excepts it as currency) if the dollar falls so will life as America knows it, the government is doing their job, trying to keep the country from complete financial collapse.
this fake economy/monopoly needs to end and the gold standard reinstated...it is the only way to stop the theft through inflationary quantitative easing....the sooner these American people open their eyes the better it will be for all.....if the people dont take back their government very soon we will be in world war three...a nuclear holocaust...not a very nice ending for the human race
The Time for Numismatic Coins will come says Bob Chapman of the International forecaster , Numismatic Coins are collectors coins , Bob Chapman owns personally the Numismatic Coins and he thinks that as long there is a low premium on the Numismatic Coins they are a good investment , last time around between 1977 and 1981 the prices went from $500 to $5000 per coin so the potential for Numismatic Coins is large because you get less than one percent of the people in the world and in the United States in Gold and Silver including Numismatic Coins now when that will become 15 percent they are not going to buy bullion coins and gold and silver shares and that includes shares too says Bob Chapman , but they are gonna buy other products and that would be Numismatic Coins as well , so their time will come ..there 's good values there ...
James TurkDirector of the GoldMoney Foundation interviews Edwin Vieira about his book "Pieces of Eight , Gold , the constitutional solution for today's monetary problems , The alternative currency movement in the states , The Gold as an Insurance against a currency collapse , How Gold money can be implemented at the state level , Gold as a lifeboat before the dollar sinks ,
People like Peter Schiff suggest having 2/3rds of our precious metal investment in gold, and the other third in silver. The Permanent Portfolio by Harry Browne originally suggested 100% in gold, but his successor who runs the fund, invests it 1/5th silver and 4/5ths gold. So those are two barometers I follow in trying to balance gold and silver investing. I would also say, for the common man, better to have silver if he can't afford an ounce of gold, than nothing.Silver has been the common man's money for 5,000 years. The Biblical word for money is "silver".
When gold stands above $10,000 an ounce, Warren Buffet could afford gold but it will be outside the reach of the common man. Without silver citizens would be forced to hold fiat currency.
This is perhaps the primary reason the central banks sough to end the bi-metal standard in 1873. Good for the rich and the central banks,but economic slavery for every else.
Jeff Nichols, Senior economic advisor to Rosland Capital and managing director at American Precious Metals Advisors Inc., He is the author of the book "The Complete book of Gold Investing " Jeff Nichols : "I am I am actually quite bullish I have been for long time and I remain so , all the facts we have spoken about from FED policy to central banks policy overseas to the debt situation in this country and in Europe rising demand in India and China Central Banks around the world net buyers of gold all this continue and they are likely to continue for the foreseeable future " "really the Gold market is a very small market compared to capital markets it is almost insignificant it gets a lot of attention because it hits us emotionally and certainly in certain way that other assets don't " " there is an emotional connection to gold and I can't explain why but it has been through over the millenia ,and gold distinguishes itself over the millennia. Really as the only asset that has attained its value over hundreds and hundreds of years. And I think investors look to gold for that reason; as a store of value, as a monetary asset and something that is a hedge and diversifier and insurance policy against all sorts of risks." " Well for better or worse I believe we are still in a long term bull market years ahead to run up , I think late this year we can easily see $1700/oz next year perhaps $2000/oz beyond that $3000/oz and may be even higher " " It's simply that more and more people around the world are chasing a limited supply of gold , in China for example 5 or 7 years ago it was illegal to invest in a bar of gold or gold coin , now the government is promoting it as a legitimate form of saving , China is under invested , India is under invested we are talking about billions of people as some of those people moving to the middle class and become consumers some of that money is going to go to gold jewellery some of it is going to go into gold investment and those are permanent or at least very long term purchases these aren't people who are going to sell when it rallies a little bit " "I think you buy for the long term , ...gold and silver , silver particularly tend to be volatile assets in the short run and they have over the past few decades , in the 1970s which was a great bull market for gold we saw silver at various points in time pull back 40 , 50 even 60 percent as it was continuing to rise along the upward trend ..." " you have to be educated and you have to understand why you are investing you have to know what the fundamentals are for gold and silver and be aware that one day things will change and it may be time to start hitting positions , but I think it is important for many investors to retain as an insurance policy some small core holding may be 5 or 10 percent of investable assets in physical metal and as an insurance policy against risks that we can't even imagine " " I think (silver ) near 50 dollars it was expensive at 35 or 37 where we are today I think it is an opportunity to buy and I think gold also is an opportunity to buy , when we look back a few years from now these will seem like a very reasonable and attractive price levels to have come into the market "...." My preference is for gold because it is principally a monetary asset , silver has an industrial side it has additional risks , I think there is a place in a portfolio at times for the right mining shares , but mining shares are not physical metal and they carry a whole host of additional risks "
My Investment plan: Puts on ANF until QE3 is announced..then pile into aggressive SLV calls. As the environment gets more dangerous (SHTF), move from SLV to physical proportional to the danger and get move aggressive with SLV options. Switch from physical silver to physical gold starting at 8 to 1 silver/gold and finish 5 to 1. Then take the ride in gold. I figure in 5 years I'll have 10,000 times my original purchasing power.
James Turk explains the waterfall decline of the US dollar , Gold and Silver are the safe heaven against the waterfall decline of the US Dollar not the Euro , This video was recorded on 29 April 2011 in Munich, Germany : The waterfall decline will start with the US Dollar and you will see the dollar continuing to decline against the Euro but this is an emotional major reaction , people will exit the dollar and they will say to themselves where can I go , well I go to the Euro because it is a big broad deep market and it is easy to buy so initially you gonna see the Euro benefiting and that's what has been happening , you know the Euro broke above 1.42 against the Dollar and we are now I think 1.48 and a half , but the European central bank is going to probably step in and keep the Euro under 1.55 and people will then understand that the emotional major reaction of selling the dollar and buying the Euro was not the right way to solve the problem not the right way to find a safe heaven for their money and they will start selling the Euro and buying gold ,
Peter Schiff : ...Silver has pulled back from a high of almost 50 dollars an ounce to about 32 , 33 right now we are about 34 , yeah I think there is a lot of support at 30 I am not sure that we are going to get as low as 30 , I think if we did got at 30 it will be an even better buying opportunity but we might not even go that low , I think we had a nice pull back from almost 50 to where we are today so if you had been thinking about adding to your silver position my opinion will be it's a good time to do it , is there a risk , yes , can I be wrong , sure , could silver go a lot low in the short run , hey anything is possible , I do not think it is probable but it is possible , but so do not do it on leverage do not buy options but physical silver that you are buying to hold in case the dollar collapses yeah , I think this recent pull back is a buying opportunity " Peter Schiff was answering a question from a listener to his radio program the Schiff Radio...
Bill Murphy calls for silver at $400 : ...well if you are looking to what James has said if you are looking for 400 dollars ( silver ) the answer is yes , and as I mentioned earlier and I talked about a lot this year I think we are into an unprecedented situation there is no telling of what gonna happen over night , even today , having done this all day everyday for twelve and half years now it is just stunning but what I have heard the price did because they know that this is following Ben Bernanke's press conference and what the FED had to say , this is a massive obvious repudiation of that , this is the last thing that these people want so , and the more the gold price goes up the more the average person says I want to buy but I cannot afford gold so I want silver and the short position is getting strangled and it is getting worse ....James Turk : ...as long as Gold Silver ratio is higher than twenty Silver is cheap , and as long as silver is in backwardation , Silver is cheap , or something else can happen which is something that we all have to consider the paper market is going to lose its importance as price discovery mechanism it goes back to my comment at Mises about government and politicians destroying the market but they do not understand how they work , the paper market is being destroyed that's what backwardation is telling us , it's no more reliable you have to look what's happening in the physical market , and the physical market is unbelievably tight , because there is just a little amount of physical silver and a huge amount of paper out there.......
Bill Murphy (http://gata.org/) : I do not want to live in a world where there is no free market , where the Chinese have more free market economy than we do in reality no free press ...that's what it is leading to this mess ....all I know is when this happens I rather have a lot of gold and silver in my pockets so that myself and family and friends can cope with what's going on while everyone else is panicking .....
