can the central banks act fast enough though, to avoid the initial deflation in everything that is. http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showtopic=2940

Deflation could happen ((short term) - and longer term for overpriced assets - houses etc)

is Silver any good against Blue Tongue

seems like everyone is getting on board with the boxing analogies from yesterday Another good analyst

just bought some more silver Beware the ides of March I am sure CGNAO would like this quote

GOLD TO CRASH TO $600 now then I will be a buyer (edit to add - as long as we dont have interest rates that are above inflation)

How to sort the economy by the Express Own up who posted this comment

thing about Ali is, his best years were probably when he was banned, a lot of people think Sugar Ray Robinson was the best pound for pound boxer, but i believe someone has timed both their jabs based on the number of frames (film) and Ali's jab was as fast as Robinson's and he's a heavyweight.

this should help Silver prediction

Dow up today your havin a laugh

No the Fed aint as good as Foreman - if Foreman had used the right tactics on the night he could have probably beaten Ali (wouldn't have got near him when he was in his prime though) whereas the Fed has ultimately got no chance More like Sugar Ray Robinson vs Les Dennis

how much longer can they keep it up? $1400

good job i didn't feel lucky given what happened a few minutes later

Hmm guess i have missed the silver pull back do i continue to have patience in the hope that they will manage to contain the panick - or do i jump in. do i feel lucky can the powers continue to fool the masses given that easy credit is no longer available to counteract their fall in wealth

If people keep buying physical or proper allocated accounts will central banks no longer be able to manipulate the price - or am i being too simplistic

another reason to invest in gold Brian Bloom I registered last year to receive the novel when it is published

not sure about the verge of collapse. I think at some point paper money will fail (it always does) and i am pretty sure this will happen within the next 20 years. I just think it will take a long while for the majority to realise the governments game. I think they will try and avoid hyperinflation and try and managed sustained inflation (say 10%pa) to inflate the problems away. Managing this right is going to be a problem, and if they get this wrong hyperinflation could result quite quickly. Also some other countries (ones with savings) could decide they have had enough and start another currency backed with something maybe Islamic Dinar, China (Silver) .

Some more headlines for the sheep Economists see US avoiding recession its already in a recession

This company do reverse osmosis and ceramic/carbon etc. The filters appear to remove more than the reverse osmosis - according to their tick list. Would value your opinion on this. Also does reverse osmosis remove beneficial minerals. hoping for more of a correction in silver before I buy some more. freshwaterfilter.com

thanks will look into that. was thinking about the whole house filter from freshwaterfilter.com - have just had a tap water fitted at the offices last week. just had another look - think that their ceramic/carbon filter one can cope with a combi boiler - dont think the reverse osmosis one can

what are the Masters of the Universe going to try now

tell me about it - we had a temporary change of supply a few weeks ago and the bathroom was like the local baths. Had a guy out from the water company who said the supply would be changing back and that it was safe to drink (with all the chlorine in it) - wife thought it was pointless informing him of the health risks of chlorine.

Water?

think that is quite a good idea - peak oil will mean that the days of transporTing lettuce 10,000 miles will be very expensive. I think we are going to need to buy more locally for most things in the future -globalisation is fine if everyone gets on.

Is it relevant, doesn't it mostly depend on the growth in the money supply. i think the ratio of gold to house prices, dow, silver etc (things that you can buy with the gold) are more relevant. at some point it will be wise to sell gold and move back into productive assets (dont know when that will be though - but the charts/ratio's that some people post on here should help with that decision. wonder if cgnao could be tempted to appear occassionally.
