<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JCB1983, post: 1317891, member: 23885&quot;]This may be an indirect stretch, in that we are talking about PM&#039;s here, but I haven&#039;t heard anyone bring up how gas prices affect the market.&nbsp; High gas prices can be tied to contributing to the last 5 recessions.&nbsp; It isn&#039;t so much that people can&#039;t afford to pay for gas, and spend less (although it&#039;s true to some degree), has has more to do with the fact that billions and billions of dollars go into forein bank accounts.&nbsp; That money is taken out of U.S. circulation, and the only way we can combat this is by more inflation.&nbsp; It is kind of like a catch 22.&nbsp; Indirectly we will be paying for Saudi and Iranian entitlement programs, through higher gas prices.&nbsp; This should result in a higher valued PM as a hedge against inflation.&nbsp; Just a stretch??[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
