The play would probably be to short gold and buy platinum since the spread will probably increase regardless of where the metals go.
What is your guess? Will the new key date be 2010 or 2011?
Silver went up very fast, and it would be normal for it to pause and build a new base for a few weeks or months before the next leg up.
Possibly. It's tough to know what millions of traders and black box trading programs "think." Most trades these days are executed without...
In a sense you are correct, but it is also true that many bankruptcies occur by not doing what everyone else is doing during hard times....
I would suggest that every time you make an investment, you should ask yourself if whatever you plan to buy is the absolute best investment idea...
Also keep in mind that the ONLY thing DCA does is to mathematically ensure that your cost basis is lower than the average price over the time you...
But you will still be wrong because your facts and reasoning are wrong. Basically you are flipping a coin and taking credit for the result.
You explained it betterthan I did. Trying to buy at or below spot while ignoring whether the spot price may be too high is like day trading. And...
Buying silver $1 below melt or gold at melt might not turn out to be "cheap. When silver was below $20 I tried to tell folks that buying silver...
This sort of comment [and there have been several so I'm not picking on anyone] doesn't make sense to me. Nothing is inherently an investment or...
Keeping in mind that this is only a guess, and for fun - not investment, I think gold will stall out below 1800 and take at least a few months of...
:D This sort of thing should be getting more attention than has been the case. The rating agencies have a dubious past and have participated...
I haven't seen any evidence that would convince me that there has been a lot of speculation in the silver market. The market is so small that if...
I agree with your analysis. In my opinion, silver will catch up when the hedge funds decide to jump on the bandwagon.
The nice part about charts is that they tell you what the market thinks. If you have strongly held beliefs about gold and silver, and it turns...
Where did you get that idea? In small amounts, gold and silver are more liquid than stocks and bonds. In somewhat larger amounts it might take a...
You are correct in the sense that the leverage is so great and things are so far gone that there can be no direct return to a gold standard. If...
I'm not sure that if you don't count all of the bills floating around that the money supply would be much different from the coinage since that's...
I think you'd be hard pressed to find an M2 calculation pre-1800 unless someone just flat-out made it up. It's an interesting question, though,...
