IMO, gold:silver ratios over 40:1 or so are a relatively new thing that was mostly caused by the demonetization of silver by the US. The chart below looks really rigged and unnatural. Also, read the text below about antique gold:silver ratios. Taken from: The Ages of Gold, Timothy Green, GFMS Limited, London

I concur 100% with the opinion expressed in this post/article.

People should know what they're doing. I know what I am doing. Kids should definitely talk to their parents.

Replace "official dealer" by "approved/certified vault" and you're there.

It's also very handy emergency money. Exact same over here.

I am mentally prepared for $500 -- a 50% from $1,000 similar to the one in the 70s from $200 to $100 before it took off to $850. Below $500 I would conclude that it is too late anyway, and would hang on. I'm a hopeless case for the cartel. Sorry!

Look at silver and palladium. You should get out of the kitchen if you can't stand the heat. EDITed for moronic grammar.

I would be interested to know as well. My plan is to buy a house for a few ounces in a few years time, so, assuming no one will really want to hold cash at the time, such a transaction would be perfect.

I think 311 tonnes are left, if they haven't lent them out to RBS or similar. Surely they will get them back. :lol:

I wish I had some! End of the month it will be for me.

I think they show that silver is grossly undervalued due to massive manipulation. Steal of a lifetime IMO.

This chart here might illustrate this a little better: Maybe also this one here:

It would just be a pity if someone got deprived of gold through their trading if it was inspired by a thread that originally wasn't intended to do so. That's all I wanted to say.

Tell me once you know how.

From long term charts I expect the average UK house to fall below 80-100oz of gold, and the DJIA and gold could easily reach 1-to-1 over the course of the depression that is beginning now. That's enough for me to know, why risking money in trading that is rigged by the major players?

No, I don't think so. When I started the gold thread(s) back when the Great Banning over at the madhouse HPC took place, I wanted this to become a thread on gold fundamentals and relationships to other assets like houses. IMO, trading gold is quite dangerous and I would like to encourage everyone to rather follow an accumulating buy & hold strategy.

I laughed at them, rolled my eyes, told them to better get ready for hyperinflation, and the had to explain why.

Vice versa, I wouldn't trust someone who told me to buy bullion but hasn't any on his own. That's a little like Al Greenspan telling everyone to take out variable mortgages back in 2006 (or when it was).

Disagree with you on that one. I think people should put their money where there mouth is.

doofy I understand your problem. The thing is, while I would expect the BoE rate to go lower until Sterling finally snaps and they will have to hike to stave off a total collapse, fixed rates might just increase the spread on the BoE, i.e. remortgaging later won't give you a better deal, possibly an even worse one. I have fixed the rate on a US student loan recently for exactly this reason.

I think he has been predicting the crash for 10 years or so. I.e. he didn't at all know WHEN to short.

I don't want to go into details, but I have a LOT more silver (weight-wise).

More silver than gold over here, but 100% precious metals.
