[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2642740, member: 27832"]I came across one of my older threads this morning, from September 2011: [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/somebody-pulled-the-plug-on-pms-again.192338/']Somebody pulled the plug on PMs again...[/URL] It's mostly talking about a ~5% intraday drop in PM prices, at least at first, without mentioning specific levels. In the second day of the thread, someone talks about silver dropping from $36 to $35 in less than an hour. Later that day, "down to almost $32" -- tripping dark mutterings about "manipulation" -- then a comment that CNBC folks were talking about buying in the $29 range. Then, a few days later, an observation that it had bounced back [I]up[/I] to $27, some technical-analysis reasoning about why it should stabilize back around $30, and a comment or two about backing up the truck if it ever went back below $20. Just a friendly reminder about the danger of looking at pricing trends through a microscope, instead of taking the wider view -- and another reminder that [I]the wider view isn't available[/I], because [B]you can't see into the future[/B].[/QUOTE]
