[QUOTE="Morgan1878, post: 1173829, member: 17869"]I read the rather heated discussion about "calculators" in the now closed thread "This is Why No $50 Silver." My own views about "Asset Calculators" and other black boxes purporting to predict the price of a particular market component is that they are mostly garbage. It was good to see other members of this forum challenging the claims the authors were making. The fact of the matter is that it is impossible to create a "calculator" that can model all of the market variables including the most difficult variable of all, human behavior. Really good investors realize this and it keeps them humble and sober when they are making investment decisions. It's good to be on a forum where dead ends are challenged by other members. Being on the west coast and occupied at work during the day, I tend to be a "late poster". Hence, I didn't get involved in the fray..but it was entertaining and educational reading.[/QUOTE]
