Message:: [QUOTE="SilverSurfer, post: 764315, member: 21603"]Sure, the U.S. dollar's decline is pushing up bullions price on the short term.  But, don't be fooled into looking at the dollars value long term.  For one thing, the value of the dollar bill is compared against other currencies.  At present, much of the world is printing money.  The money isn't completely in circulation just yet.  But, BoE has increased their money supply 130%.  The U.S. has increased it's money supply 110%.  The swiss bank has increased it's money supply (I believe 60%).  So, comparing things that are all increasing isn't a good sound strategy, especially when you are comparing it against something that is finite, like silver or gold. I remember John Nadler had a chart he was using that showed the value of gold vs. the movements in the dollar bill to show that the movement was dollar driven.  I haven't seen him put that chart up now for over a month.  I think he was wrong then, and I think he now realizes it...hence the pulling of the chart. The fed keeps telling us they will tighten the monetary supply when the time is right, to help shore up excess money and prevent run away inflation.  My question to Big Bubble Ben is, are you gonna regulate Japan, EU, Swiss bank, BoE, and every other bank as well.  How are you, Ben, going to shore up all of the money other countries are printing?  Or do you just not care?[/QUOTE]
