<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 633530, member: 19065&quot;]Firstly, you are citing 7 month old data and looking at the current (today&#039;s) price then suggesting it&#039;s on the hike to over $1000/oz., and you know what?... EVENTUALLY, enough time and crisis will pass, et voila!, it will peak over $1000/oz and with passing time, it will also hold there and perhaps beyond. That&#039;s not an &#039;I told you so&#039; situation that your &#039;predictions&#039; are building up to at all, it&#039;s the nature of time and the rising value of PMs as they have historically always held that store of value. But what do you see as the reality? Are you just going by futures numbers? You cite nothing in your posts, give no personal insight nor any set of factors, just toss out randomness about analysts from (yet) un-sourced business reports on PMs. I read a pile of business news and reports too, as I&#039;m sure others who like to track PMs do, as well, we all read blogs, TV, radio and discuss... it&#039;s everywhere and there&#039;s a lot of BS speculation by the supposed professionals. You can&#039;t post things on the net without sources and expect to be taken seriously or believed. I&#039;m not in the financial, economic nor journalist professions but I follow the news and economic reports and enjoy following PMs closely, yet I can &#039;crap-detect&#039; when reading journalism, both mainstream feeds and underground type of reports.</p><p><br /></p><p>Platinum has not only taken over gold since 12/2008, but surpassed gold, for instance, as of this writing, it&#039;s greater than $200/oz over gold. Tell me about the correction again... Platinum has the rarity thing over gold as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>You say: &quot;most analyst predicted gold will pass $1,000.00 again this second part of the year.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Most&quot;? Certainly &#039;many&#039; have said this, as well MANY have said the opposite will also occur... Based on what number and reasoning of analysts makes you cite only the view that it &#039;corrects&#039; over $1000/oz.? Are you factoring those who are just PM analysts or those with view points and interests across the investing spectrum? Are they political analysts? From which nation(s) are your sources coming from, beyond of course the London gold reference you&#039;ve used above? What are you reading from? What are your sources? &#039;Analysts&#039; spew stuff all day long and even after the market closes on one side of the earth and opens on another... they&#039;re paid to make guesstimates... It&#039;s often hype spoken in retrospect and most don&#039;t know more about the direction of PMs than you, me and the next person... other than that it will eventually rise through it&#039;s typical volatile behavior patterns. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sorry, truly, but your posts and their intent remain suspect to me. Come on already. You&#039;re not fooling anyone with this stuff. If it&#039;s just for your personal amusement to stir up the poo with figures then admit that you like to get the gold bugs going... Are you are hopeful for gold to drive down the US dollar?... If so, why? What&#039;s your motive? Did you buy too much gold too high the last time and are waiting for the chance to unload again? Are you in it for the historical moment gold peaks over $1011.25/oz? (3/17/08) PLEASE share some personal insight to the forum with your posts on the matter as I feel it would be appreciated, you appear to be informed in these matters.</p><p><br /></p><p>Everyone, please note, that while I am very interested in the PM markets and the figures being presented, as well as personally believing that gold will hike up in the next six months considerably, and also how all of this factors into coins, investing, history and global activity, that my real issue here is with data being dropped in these forums without citing ones sources, the lack of authenticity to claims, especially those implied in such a manner as this, and a lack of transparency when attempting to discuss anything objectively. If members who follow these threads and others across CT take note, the nature of data provided by elaine_1970 to any cited source is sorely lacking (and no, we don&#039;t all subscribe to dealer grey sheet publications so you need to provide such info, if it&#039;s Red Book source, say so, most can double check to confirm, on the net, give the URL) and when all of this particular member&#039;s data is weighed together, it bears more signs of instigation, fueling a lot of speculative misinformed debate, harboring an aire of dubiousness and all reading this should take a moment to question these figures and the un-sourced data. This is my grievance. Thank you for reading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
