<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1309609, member: 23885"]Ok, so I'll admit I don't have a life. I am an aspiring economist, and study market trends while not in school or working. Imho I feel like gold prices are going to temporarily drop within the next two years. It seems to me that gold has been marketed, and created a slight bubble above the level of hedge against inflation. The initial quantitative easing of 700 Billion last year had people running to buy gold, but the results of expected inflation were not as high as expected. With the current political environment, and pressure from other nations I do not see the Fed making another bold move anytime soon. This being said, I plan on doing a short buy on gold through an ETF or possible X2 ETF. On the other-hand I truly believe that the buzz on silver is just now beginning and with the recent drop in price, that now is the perfect time to buy. I see silver as a better long term investment, because it hasn't nearly peaked like gold has, and in the event of an economic collapse people will just not be able to afford gold. I do not have extremely deep pockets, but do plan on investing in 1k oz of physical silver. If I do a 2x ETF short on gold, it would be for a much lesser amount. Please all opinions welcome. By the way I have always done my own thing in life, and I have been burned as well as prospered because of it. In the scale of risk aversion I am "High Risk." Thank You Kindly.</p><p><br /></p><p>~Jason[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
