Every part of my being says this 'should' cause PM's to go up, but there is the lingering feeling that the paper market will be driven down along...
It looks like the downgrade just happened. http://www.newsobserver.com/2011/08/05/1394238/sp-downgrades-us-credit-rating.html Hard to say if...
Gold had been the ultimate reference of value for much of recorded human history until as recently as many of the people here have been around.
I believe the USDJPY just hit a multi-decade low as well. This does not inspire confidence in fiat currency for me as the two that are supposedly...
This is enough for me to pull the trigger on some of the Australian Lunar silver coins I've been eyeing, but it needs to go down another 10 before...
Oil was down 5% today as well. Silver is the most volatile and I would expect it to be hit the hardest. I guess it's a question of the chicken and...

As of yet I have had no problems. Although I have only been in the game for about 3 years, and admittedly I am spread a little thinner in dollars...
It is telling to me that our leadership is more concerned with their ability to borrow us into oblivion than to embrace fiscal responsibility. I...
Indeed the points I am making are forward thinking and may not (probably won't) be realized in the short term. I am not as concerned about the...
You bring up a valid point. Above ground available (scrap) silver does not include bullion that investors have stashed that may at some point...
