<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jolumoga, post: 1719709, member: 41780&quot;]Hey man, I have no problem with stock market bulls coming into the bullion forum and giving an optimistic view of the economy and being bearish on precious metals.&nbsp; But I think both sides, the bulls and bears on precious metals, are filtering information based on their biases.&nbsp; What I have come to realize is that the bears in this forum are a bit anxious because they (seem to) have money in the stock market.&nbsp; So it&#039;s not like one side is objective and can get on any moral high ground based on temporary movements in the economy or markets.&nbsp; I&#039;m not attacking anyone personally or directing my comments to any specific person; I&#039;m just pointing out that the bias attributed to the precious metals bulls is evident in the bears, particularly when they <u><i>clue</i></u> others in to their personal stake in the stock market.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Let me emphasize that so far the bears have been correct, but it&#039;s possible for both sides to be correct at different times of the year.&nbsp; I believe if the economy begins to slow down again and precious metals rise, it&#039;s likely that the bulls will be pounding their chests again, but they won&#039;t be any more enlightened.&nbsp; This is a Fed-driven market right now, and when a group is making gains there will be more dopamine kicking into their brains, a mania if you will, making them think they are really smart.&nbsp; I think we are experiencing a wealth effect due to the rising real estate market.&nbsp; Again, I don&#039;t think the Fed can drive the market successfully over the long term, but that&#039;s why we have bulls and bears to debate.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
