Very rarely is it business as usual}

Gold Prices Stall, Silver to Explode

December Gold futures are now trading comfortably above the psych mark of $1,600.00. Near-term trading is within a well-defined range on the daily chart. But the fundamentals for both Gold and Silver remain rock solid ,As the US Mint reports 190 silver coins sold for every oz of gold. In real terms that can be expressed as 190x$28(silver)/$1620(gold)= 3.3 to 1 silver to gold ratio not 58:1 as officially reported. Take paper silver out of the equation and that puts silver at $490+. Buy, buy, buy! This is the greatest opportunity in human history. Put the banks out of business in September. Buy SILVER TODAY!It has been proven many times how we have lost way over 90% of the value of the dollar since 1913 & the start of the FED. We just have artificial advantages with the dollar being the reserve currency of the world & the banksters still haven't drained all the wealth a way from when we were truly free. The FED has caused every Boom & Bust first by Inflation of the money supply cheap to the banks then by Deflation little printing & High interest charged to people. it is a total rip off scam.

Billionaires Paulson & George Soros Hoarding Gold

We should be focused on backing away from bank run electronic money that is leveraged to use against us. Its pretty clear to see that Gold and silver are not weapons or any threat to the current system and that people are just hoping that the system will self implode. The controllers of the system have any number of options of tweaks to make to keep the system running. But they need leverage that we can deny by simply using more cash. Printed cash is better than having your money in the fractional reserve system, but it is still just a Fed promissory note. They can print a couple of $100 trillion notes and there goes your printed cash. Gold, silver and bitcoin are the best things I know of to get your wealth 'out of the system'.

Gold & Silver Market still in stagnation for the summer holidays

Gold and Silver Market still in stagnation for the summer holidays not much happening until the labor day says Peter Hug . Gold is a precious metal that has been held as valuable for thousands of years. Gold was once used as money for trade. The more gold you had the richer you were. It never has in known history lost 100% of its value. The only problem with gold is that it is not readily negotiable. If there is a famine, who will take your gold in trade for food? Not many would if they and you are hungry. A barrel of wheat of might cost you a pound of gold. See the relationship. Value only if time is right.Gold had a correction in 08 but it only lasted for a couple of months and then started to climb back up again. The correction only hurt the people who panicked and sold at that time.Silver is part precious metal, and part industrial metal. So it's 50:50. Unlike gold which is 100% precious metal. Since silver is partly industrial metal, its demand will also depend on the industry. In addition, no central bank buy silver, except gold. Silver may go up during hyperinflation but so will other metals. But I recommend gold because it is pure money. I just hear the is 800 million oz silver for sale and only out of that is 300 million oz for sale as an investment i guess we just need 1 million people to buy 300oz a year to wipe that out we need 1 million people to invest in 300oz silver each year for few years to wipe out silver of the earth there is around 8 years silver left it should be extinct around 2021 unless silver prices go up from $27 to atleast $1000 an oz then they can start recycle the used up silver

The Gold Trade : Buy Gold, Short Miners

Until the FRAUD in the silver and gold markets ENDS, I am not buying any more silver. Just like the stock market, the fraud is too overwhelming and its no longer reasonable or sane to be involved in the BIG LIE. I am not going to take a fat loss when the market is a huge manipulated lie. What's going on IS A CRIME and should be prosecuted instead of creating more victims. Continuing to be a victim is simply mental illness and I'm not going to do it.

Peter Schiff : Gold The Opportunity of the Decade

Peter Schiff : After spending the previous fall and winter testing new nominal highs above $1,800, future investors may come to view spring and summer 2012 as the opportunity of the decade. Gold has shown its strength and retreated. While most investors will take that as a signal that the market has topped, some will take advantage of the general trepidation to add to their positions at hundreds of dollars off the highs.While I think gold is a bargain at $1,900 considering today's circumstances, the market phobia of a price collapse is allowing us to buy at well under established highs. It's as if you already wanted to go swimming, but you found out when you got there that the pool was heated. - in resourceinvestor

Gold Going to $10,000/oz - Nick Barisheff

Gold's Going to $10,000 Per Ounce says Nick Barisheff. Nick Barisheff, President and CEO of Bullion Management Group on the financial sense network discusses Gold and Silver markets prospective with Kerry Lutz.

Nick Barisheff of Bullion Management Group Inc. is calling for gold to rise exponentially within the next five year time period. He's convinced that unlimited and excessive money printing by the world's central banks guarantee it. He's even got a book coming out later this year to back up his hypothesis. He believes a mix of gold, silver, and platinum as well as geographical diversity will protect you from the numerous economic uncertainties and governmental threats that are lurking. Nick's made it his life's work to help people protect their precious metals holdings from over zealous bureaucrats and other criminal types. How safe is your metal? In some parts of the world gold is viewed as the protector of wealth. In North America, gold is viewed as a speculative investment. Our economists regard a rising gold price as an admission of defeat, and their disparaging attitude toward higher gold prices took on a more desperate tone in 2010. Nevertheless, gold had another remarkable year, up 25% in 2010, its tenth straight annual gain. Meanwhile, over the same 10-year period, five major currencies -- the US and Canadian dollars, the euro, the British pound and the yen -- have lost between 70% and 80% of their value. In reality, gold is not rising; currencies are falling in value, and gold can rise as far as currencies can fall. Nick discusses the three dominant medium-term trends that pushed up gold prices in 2010 (central bank buying; movement away from the US dollar; China) as well as three longer-term, irreversible trends that will put upward pressure on the gold price for years to come (the aging population; outsourcing; peak oil). In addition to these trends, more and more investors will be competing to buy a shrinking gold supply. As safe-haven demand accelerates, there will be a transition from the $200-trillion financial asset market to the $3-trillion aboveground gold bullion market. About half of that $3 trillion is held by central banks as reserves; the remainder is privately held, and not for sale at any price. If the world's pension and hedge funds moved only 5% of their assets into gold, it would trade at over $5,000 per ounce. Nick's conclusion: Without any new financial crises, both mid- and long-term trends indicate that gold -- and silver -- will continue rising through 2011 and well beyond.

Euro Meltdown to Force Central Banks to Sell Gold

Gold is not a good investment in deflation. It only did well during deflation in the past because the gold price was pegged in US dollars, which is not the case now. I'm betting on Bernanke and inflation, so mostly own PMs. But I also fear we could have deflation if money printing won't inflate (i.e. pushing on a string). So I also plan to have cash (75% PMs, 25% cash) in case of deflation instead of inflation.
