Goldilocks

I have been exploring this site and it is brilliant,for investment tips but still too complicated for a complete novice, so i am taking it upon myself to learn as much as i can and i found this place that gives a complete novice a bit of an insight to the casino, it even has a quiz after the info to see what one has picked up upon, even a dummie like me can get the terms and answers right.

Hope it helps dummies like me.

After all when gold reaches are target we will need an exit plan

Hi and welcome to GEI

Hi consa

i was looking at your Ghpc is property guru really realist bear as he says,and is just whining the other hpc up.

Not sure how to do this?

http://www.investorseurope.com/canadian_stocks.html

found these Canadian stocks offshore ones ,i am playing with their 30 day trail traders account and buying everything in commodities, i would probably end up just letting them phoning me and give them Axstones juniors and let them buy them for me and oil,sugar soy beans and altnerative energy shares,and get them to give me certificates in hand.

Please sir can i have some more?

More..... fook off :lol:

Dubai International Capital must've been misunderstood. On Thursday the firm said that, contrary to earlier reports, it has no privileged information about Citigroup and has no opinion about its current dire situation. This statement, however, directly contrasts words from the firm's own chief, who earlier in the week reportedly said Citi will need a lot of outside cash just to get by.

O dear the house of cards are crashing faster than an American Soldier can throw a puppy of a cliff,

Hello everyone

 

HPC regular here but keeping my identity to myself - apologies for the sneakiness

 

Is that you smelly ctt???

 

edit - typo

Ive heard that the next big bubble will be in green energy, so hopefully I will learn a bit here when the time comes to invest.

 

 

Regarding the Krugerrands on Ebay, Ive noticed that things are hotting up on with more buyers to compete with. I plan to sell some of my PM on ebay but not for a while yet. Its quite a good gauge of public awareness.

I read somewhere that it will be the next bubble with all the yanks politicians like Clinton/ Al Gore waving the Pom-Poms and trying to push awareness in green energy, now that property is fooked they need another one.

Yip things hotting up in Ebay i have 7 lurkers watching my 2.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Should the the price of gold burst through the $1,000-per-ounce barrier, which it nearly did on Wednesday, experts predict it could reach higher records and even double this year.

Meanwhile Kitco analyst John Nadler says gold will hit $ 10,000 oz in 2010

I've been exploring the investing Threads here investing etc, and saw the word derivatives,Etf, and so on,so i'm coming back here i am too scared to be investing in them.

I wonder have the people here like dr bubb etc, have got their certifcates in their procession, are do they leave them in the brokers office's safe. Paranoia creeping in after reading Jim Sinclair methinks.

Reading Gloomberg today depressed even me.

 

The credit crunch seems to be back with a vengeance. The Kondratieff winter comes wave by wave.

Must be Deflation then. :lol:

Are you not pretty gutted to be exchanging your gold for an insurance policy? Don't think I could stomach that

 

There are lots of krugerrands going on Ebay for about £525 including P&P. Yet you can get them on coininvestdirect.com for £505 incl P&P. I guess its best to wait until near auction end and check the spot price out before bidding. I will keep an eye on your coins and hope you get a good price. (or I will bid on them )

Yes i am gutted, i have used all my paper money and bought real money coins.

Seriously i am going to use the paper money shorting the Kruggers on Ebay, for car insurance, because the other half won't let me into her bank account, in case i go and buy more gold and silver, with it,she wants to keep some in the credit union so she can queue outside in the rain like Northern crap bank, so she can gossip and smugly think that we're protected 100% owning gold.

Naw i don't mind selling them, i want to have them in my feedback to show buyers that i'm trustworty if the time comes to sell more in a hurry.

The kruggs will be replaced again as my small one man buissness will be near operational soon.

That coininvestdirect seems cheap.

I rung Bairds when they were selling Kruggs at 505 sterling and asked him what they would buy back for and he said 485.

I will stick to selling on Ebay if the need comes.

You got a link for your ebay auction? I just bought 15 and maybe I get some more.

No problem,but i'm hanging onto the other 3 or 4 in my procession buried in a forest hhmm i forgot where i put them now.

here's the link anyway azazel, don't worry the coin isn't sitting on used toilet-roll.

One guy is bidding on them at the moment , the other 1 just below it. starting at 400

I'm paying the 2 car insurance with these babys and saving my other paper money, to put into a wheel-borrow to go down to Tesco's for a loaf of bread in 6 months,if Cgnao is right.

I hope this does not break any rules here.

Hi Dr Bubb and consa fizzlers.

I'm shorting 2 kruggers at the moment on Ebay,

and i also would like to start gently and get into some of these wonderfully cheap junior mining exploration companys,that axstone, Chapman,Sinclair are raving about, is there any way to do it in the U,k. i really know sweet f a about brokers, all these different letter meanings and chart stuff, apart from rockets going to the moon pictures.

Would it be too much to ask how to start a thread with Q&A doing this and explain it all in pure simpleton terms to the uneducated novices like myself and others that have join here recently before all you's chappies make a fortune in juniors while us other poor unfortunate lost souls are only holding lowly gold bullion coins and silver and so on, and (EtfS) i have already learnt that etfs means-not enough to go around in the case everyone demands theirs, like the banks on fractional reserves.

I think it would be good for this site to educate the complete novice's like me. And make us Rich

Now if the "unmentionable thingy" was mainstream Im sure they would dedicate the whole 15min interview to it.

Faber is a rare bird a historical economist Schiff and Rogers are his "gloomy" subscribers.

 

His website is here and Tommorrows Gold is an excellent read.

Now how the hell do we invest in Cambodia?

Didn't Marc faber say that their would be a boom in commodities for 20 yrs or so a while back in his opinion last year?>

Follow the money and the corrupt piggys at the top of the Carlyle group,it is also a secret investment bank,

The first 2or3 mins is in Dutch then the rest is in English well worth watching 45 mins long.Even John i luv pea's Major was a director pappy bush and so on. (snort snort grunt)

The Bush family, the Saudi Royal family, Osama Bin Laden's family and Donald Rumsfeld's inner circle - these are just some of the high ... all » profile figures who have played a direct role in the rise of one of the most powerful and influential and secretive firms in Washington.

The company is called The Carlyle Group. And in the wake of the events of September 11th and the invasion of Iraq, its power and influence have become significantly stronger.

The company operates within the so-called iron-triangle of industry, government and the military. Its list of former and current advisers and associates includes a vast array of some of the most powerful men in America and indeed around the world.

This program exposes the history of the Carlyle Group, from it's inception as a private equity firm to it's precent status as one of the largest defence contractors in the world. «

Before I publicly posted a farewell I PMed several posters. cgnao was one of them. Although, given recent actions, I would not be surprised if most of my PMs had gotten deleted by the Mods before receivers were able to read them.

I tried to put a link to here and it auto changed to the Hpc url

My thanks to cgnao i was getting into precious metals any way about the recommended 15%,but he help me with his posts and nuke pictures to go the whole hog,for what he posted i went and got the facts that he was 99% right guaranteed.

Phew.

I have spent about a hour and a half and 15 pages later to get to here.

Silver went up nicely to day,and gold.

I am going to sell half my silver when it reaches $30 an oz,and i am going to buy more yellow coins with that ugly south African guy's face on them.

HAPPY DAYS! silver has made me so happy in 4 months about 20yrs worth of interest i would maybe have got out of northern drop bank

Does anyone think Silver will reach Ted Butlers $100 oz ????

Here she goes....oil levels lowered in the USA. BLAST OFF!!!!

gold at $980 and rising to pre-cartel smack down level

I take it Mr P that USofA has suddenly discovered that the gasoline tank is in the red, and the nearest gas station is in the middle east. Peak oil anyone.

I suppose another possibiliity is that the 1980 peak was a very specific reaction to the ending of the gold convertibility and the subsequent legalisation of private ownership. This time, the first part of the bull run at least has been merely a correction after gold spent a long time lagging behind inflation.

 

It'll all be interesting to watch. I'm not wealthy, so for me it's more of an academic interest - what money I have is wrapped up in my property which I won't be selling even though I do expect its value to decline somewhat.

I str about a year ago to get the ex wife paid her bit, i am glad i did, got her out for 9k she was desperate for money to pay of credit card debts, i pocketed the rest and got to keep the kiddies as well

I put most of it into gold and silver,and am riding the bull, i will also when the markets settle i will get into shares like energy and wheat sugar other copper etc..etc

The next few years will be most interesting and i am going to start selling gold when it reaches about $2000 in chunks but i will also keep about a third of it and let it just sit,and who knows it could be a nice pension that third in 20 years, or pass it on to my kiddies.

I'm property poor, but real money rich.

Here's my gold sceptic thought of the day, feel free to skip it if you only like hearing pro-gold views:

 

One thing that worries me about the attitudes of current goldbugs is that they are developing a bubble mentality, together with some seriously defensive psychological tactics. So any drop in price is a temporary drop, probably as a result of cartel conspiracy. Anyone who says anything bad about gold must be jealous or scared, or a gold-hater. And so on.

 

My opinion is that the gold run has further to go, possibly a lot further, and I'm pleased for anyone who does well out of it. But history tells us that gold also has the potential to eventually peak and crash, and with all these defensive attitudes being reinforced by a long gold bull run, I worry that people will be left without the critical tools for perceiving a bubble forming.

 

I'd also note that almost all the things people are saying now about gold were being said in the late 1970s. Fiat was about to crash, gold was real money, the only safe store of wealth, etc etc. And then it peaked and crashed and a lot of people lost out big time.

 

My suggestion would be that whatever you say about gold, try using the same language about shares or property and seeing how plausible it sounds then. That might help give you a clue as to whether you are being rational or participating in bubble mentality.

I personally welcome your opinion as other gold bugs should, i also think that anyone that is here is well informed,and hopefully when the correction comes we will know about it,through lots of other against the grain sources.

But gold is different this time lots more people in India, China , have more of a historic interest in trusting gold and not gobberment propaganda outlets, it seems that it will be a large drop but not like the one that happen in the 80s, and will continue to be a valuable commoditie, just like food and energy.

To be a gold bug one gets attacked from all sides, and use history in the 80s as a big stick to beat bugs with,as Warren Buffet said "when the tide goes out you will see who is swimming naked".

Protect yourself Magpie

It's going to be interesting in New York today. Will they kick gold in the back? Or will we see strong dip buying?

Deflation

Looks like London likes yellow bricks, New York the usual 3pm est smack down coming up 100% guaranteed.

gold getting a nice spike now, must be the bond news in Europe.

I will go over and post a rocket in the deflation thread now.

'If you build it they will come'

 

have you noticed the links to gei i have put on hpc.

 

LOL

 

Glad you're here too quark.

Well done i wonder if the link will be still there in the afternoon time?.

Jesus that ladyboy/thing STC has pure poison dribbling from her keyboards.

What a great site Dr Bubb has here,i have been looking around and it is great, better than house price turd. :lol:

Hi CIGA,

 

Glad to be here

 

Who is over from HPC ??? Goldfinger / impartial............

 

Hello to everyone.

 

Is this forum a general investors discussion group. Sorry, I am new here and havnt had a chance to read through all the topics to get a feel for things.

welcome Marmite.

Most of the chappies are here, goldfinger is the ringleader

Seems to be a far better forum for Investments in general, and a lot more wiser posters, without the shrills.

Must take myself off to the investment threads here,where i'm sure i will get sound advise,without the noise .

OMG this is major scandal, the sneaky bag of snakes at hpc have put a rendering filter on the url that points to this topic.

 

I would laugh if it wasn't so sneaky.

 

copy and paste the url to this thread, try and post it into a hpc.co.uk new thread (or any thread) and post it - the url is automatically changed to a link to their old gold thread which they locked on their site!!!

 

LOL

 

ridiculous bunch.

W**kers, sums them up in one word.

Hi folks, another former HPC gold poster here, had enough - they're taking the pi55 over there, may go back now and then to speak about hpc but doubt it will be often after the way they behaved.

 

BTW, I was originally Impartial, I am no longer I am a Comrade In Golden Arms inspired by jsmineset.

 

glad we have a new gold thread and Dr. Bubb deserves the publicity and members at his site.

 

let's have it.

Welcome Comrade In Golden Arms

Same as me i read their attacks on you tonight and others especially the pox ridden STC , i stop posting over there about 6 months ago, not that i had anything useful to say, but i was bored with the usual can't eat gold blah blab blah.

You can’t make this stuff up. No later than 5 minutes after I received this email, Charlie Gasparino popped up on CNBC, announcing an Ambac deal was close at hand. The DOW then rallied 180 points…

 

Hey Bill,

Where's Charlie Gasparino when you need him? I think you could flip a coin on the Hail Mary today. I'm sure they'll try at some point, but they did it yesterday, and it didn't follow through. I think one of your readers pointed out that the fund managers who jump on that bandwagon and help facilitate the Hail Mary, pull in their horns at some point, and the PPT loses some of its sting. This leg down feels kind of "black holish" to me, so we might just get sucked down into the vortex, and blow through the January lows.

 

Question is, when does the Fed play their last trump card? I have a feeling we'll see an emergency cut in order to defend the January lows. That's going to be their line in the sand. If we get no Hail Mary today, and close on the lows, Asia will be looking at a nasty night, and we could be staring at the lows tomorrow, which means we might get a cut tomorrow morning, or the next day. Of course, there's no guarantee that the cut will even work it's magic this time around.

 

It might be good for a bounce, but the last one's effect has completely worn off...Bottom line, this market needs a good puke to help get back to normal. The best thing the Fed could do is take away the punchbowl, but that will NEVER happen, at least not as long as Helicopter Ben is at the controls!

Cheers, P de la V

 

UNREAL, except so often too real. The DOW roared back, closing only down 45 to 12,214. The DOG closed up 2 to 2260. As I watch the CNBC market wrap-up pundits beaming on TV after the close, all I can think of is the old PRAVDA. Who woulda thunk it so many years ago?

 

Oh yeah, NO AMBAC announcement!!! BEYOND FARCE.

 

The US economic news presented in the MIDAS commentary has been horrendous for MANY WEEKS. I mean terrible. IMO the ONLY reason the market hasn’t cratered yet is due to the antics of the PPT and its sycophant followers.

 

Before the PPT trotted out their carnival barker, Charlie Gasparino, yields on US Treasuries were tanking. They quickly shot up after the PPT did their thing again. CNBC’s Rick Santelli noted, however, the derivatives laden credit default swap spreads are not coming down … thus the drop in US Treasury interest rates was not achieving the desired results in other related markets.

 

This suggests to me that the possibility of a US financial market system failure is growing. From a MIDAS a few weeks ago…

 

February 14 – Gold $907.60 up 60 cents – Silver $17.22 down 10 cents

 

The Unthinkable Might Be Close At Hand!

 

…Planet Wall Street continues to tell the investing public "Everything is fine." Why else would the DOW keep rallying like it does time and time again? Meanwhile, not since the 70s have I seen a collection of so much negative news for the US economy and financial markets in a month’s time. Because of the constant market rigging over the past many years, which led to excesses of all kinds, the system is BLOWING UP. We are one derivatives crisis (sort of like a neutron bomb going off, setting off one financial nightmare chain reaction after another) away from catastrophe and the unthinkable. Yep, the Titanic analogy again. One day the world looks one way. The next day it is likely to look totally differently.

 

Is that too alarmist? I don’t think so. Just a real possibility thanks to The Gold Cartel, Working Group on Financial Markets, Counterparty Risk Management Group, and the Exchange Stabilization Fund. They have gone too far in their market management. As a result, they have allowed the patient to unknowingly get so sick from his secret addiction that the market managers usual HEROIN FIX won’t soothe the problem…

 

-END-

You can near set your watch, for when the cartel attacks gold ,before the main man speaks ,just like JS says is true,and que the cheerleaders with the pom-poms slithering about on CNBC talking the markets up. I think we need a wee picture,if i may dare of an explosion of the derivatives unravelling.

ahhh thats better.
