    I don't believe Dimon can forcast water in Lake Michigan and get it right.

    Ironically, my clients were talking about Saint-Gaudens, Blanchard, etc.....but I never explored further even though I had 1 or 2 fractional golds. :mad:

    It wasn't until the SSCA coins hit that I got the bug.

    His forecasts have been way off, I will say that.

    Still...he is probably the best bank CEO and one of the best CEOs out there. If you could name 1 guy to run a bank, he'd be it.

    I remember selling a couple of double eagles at ~$1400 each to lock in a few hundred bucks of profit. Not that long ago, either. Sigh.

    The pawn shop had put out a bunch of new gold coins today. 1/10oz AGEs at $650 each, an ex-jewelry 1861 quarter eagle at $850, a US Capitol $5 at something comparably silly. I imagine they'll sell.

    I recall thinking I’d take half my profits at $3500 and let the rest ride. Well, $3500 blew by with such momentum that it changed my perspective entirely. Most retail investors haven’t even dipped their toes in the gold market yet, and the action we’re seeing is largely central bank and institutional purchases.

    Investors have long sensed the stock market was overbought, and have been encouraged by their money managers to hold long. That’s been the case for quite some time now, and many are understandably jittery. If there’s a seasonal shakeout in the equities markets we could see a seismic shift into safe havens.

    I won’t hold my breath for $5k, but I do feel we are more likely to see that number than $3k (again) this year.

    I remember buying the gold proof set back in 1995 just to get the free W proof Silver Eagle. Had to have it to keep my Silver Eagle set complete. The set was $995. I remember telling myself how stupid I was and thinking I would never get my money back out of the set. Thought about just selling the gold and taking the loss but never did.

    $650 for 1/10th of an ounce ? I thought the premiums on fractionals had collapsed just like on pre-1933 gold ? :wideyed:
