  3. Actually, I know that. But there are some new readers here, who might appreciate an overview on how you look at things I have started a special thread for your charts in another section: http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index.php?showtopic=17200 And have added a few of my own, and will repost some more material there, unless you want to highlight some of your charts and post them there yourself

Caribbean Coast in Tung Chung, is basically tracking the index, some 3% ahead of year-end, but 3% below the peak. The real outperforming area seems to be Kowloon Central, where the Express Train to China will be completed in about 2 years time. Two properties (Sorrento and The Arch), were hovering around peak prices, while The Waterfront was more than 3% ABOVE the price at 3/17, when the Centaline Index hit its peak. Two properties in the Olympic area were mixed with Park Avenue outperforming the index since year-end by almost 4%, but Island Harborview, which is a longer walk from the XRL, down more, but only -2.8% off year-end prices.
  5. Hong Kong Home Prices Decline Most Since 2008, Centaline Says Hong Kong home prices fell the most in four-and-a-half years in the week ended July 7, on concerns that interest rates will begin to rise if the U.S. Federal Reserve phases out its monetary easing program later this year. Prices fell 1.8 percent during the week, the most since November 2008, according to an index compiled by Centaline Property Agency Ltd., the city’s biggest closely held realtor by agent numbers. Home transactions fell to the lowest since 1996 in the first half after the government doubled stamp duty taxes on property deals in February to quell concerns that an asset bubble is forming. Homebuyers’ sentiment was further damped by signals that interest rate will soon begin to increase as the U.S. economic recovery gather strength. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-07-12/hong-kong-home-prices-decline-most-since-2008-centaline-says.html
  6. Yeah. I agree with that. And more importantly, so does Kyle Bass - who remains a long term bull on Gold: . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQdlifGg7eI . What I was really asking was: Are you tracking closely the other indicators such as the Gold-to-Oil ratio (which I know you look at) - as a key indicator to tell you WHEN to sell Gold? . . For me, something like a 25:1 Ratio, of Gold-to-WTI would get me thinking of switching out of Gold into Oil, or maybe out of Gold altogether. . Have you got a long term chart showing Gold-to CRB ? . If you like this "Ratio" approach to valuing Gold, what else would you look at?
  7. THIS CHART supports your comment : Sterling looks terrible - it could be set for a big drop ... update x
  8. Do you have a sell plan? If not yet, what will you want to see before beginning to develop one?
  9. Short squeeze on Spot gold. ie Spot Gold is more heavily demanded than forward Gold

  11. Fascinating information here - too much to summarise quickly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZIhscdrhsA One big tip: Watch what you eat - some food is designed to be toxic, and things like GMO wheat can trigger obesity, if eaten in combination with other foods You may not like the conspiratorial aspects, but Miller is a very smart fellow who worked inside the government, and then left because he did not like what he was being asked to do. He went on to become a herb farmer, and wrote the classic book on this subject. He knows more about food and herbs than almost anyone, so I suggest listening to this

  15. Friday's "Catastrophic Surge" in Mortgage Rates July 6, 2013 If you're thinking about buying a home, then you're probably not going to like what I'm about to say. On Friday, while you were busy nursing yourself back to life following the previous night's celebrations, mortgage rates exploded. Mortgage Rates : // TNX : 20-year interest rates ... 3-years : Cal.-2013 The daily recap from a widely followed mortgage industry publication characterized it as a "catastrophic surge," saying: "today's rise in mortgage rates is among the largest ever, and certainly the largest in the past 10 years. Today alone, rates rose more than most entire weeks." According to its estimates, the rate on a conventional 30-year fixed rate mortgage "moved forcefully into 4.75% territory, with some lenders at 4.875%." . . . All things considered, in turn, if you're a prospective homeowner, it might behoove you to act on your inclination to buy a house sooner rather than later, as there's reason to believe that this trend could very well continue. === /more : http://i2.squidoocdn...7804A---a-_.jpg
  16. Are these "safer" inflation-protected bonds, really any safer? So far, just a little - They are down from 122.5 to 110.5 (-9.79%), while TLT fell by 124 to 106 (-14.52%) TIP / Inflation-indexed Bonds hit a new Low for the year yesterday ... update TLT / Bonds hit a new Low for the year yesterday ... update (TIPS related news):
  17. TLT / Bonds hit a new Low for the year yesterday ... update Often Gaps will suck energy out of a market - but these seem to be more common in the TLT market. Some times it takes three gaps, to get a market reversal, so this latest move may need one more. But that reversal gap back at the beginning of May could go unfilled.

  19. House prices rising 'at fastest annual rate for three years' BBC News - ‎1 hour ago‎ House prices are rising at their fastest annual rate for nearly three years, according to one of the UK's biggest mortgage lenders.
  20. UK house prices grow at fastest rate for 3 years in June MyFinances.co.uk 8 hours ago Halifax reports the first annual rise in house prices since October 2010. The Halifax reports that UK house prices saw their first annual rise for 27 months, up by 1.3 per cent, despite falling by 0.2 per cent in January from December. / / / Robert Gardner, Nationwide's Chief Economist, said: "UK house price growth continued to gather momentum in June, rising by 0.3% over the month. Indeed, the annual rate of house price growth increased to 1.9% in June - the fastest pace since September 2010. "Demand for homes has been supported by further modest gains in employment, as well as an improvement in the availability and a reduction in the cost of credit, partly as a result of policy measures, such as the Funding for Lending Scheme," he added. However, the latest data reveals a divide between prices in London and the south-east which are growing and the rest of the country where there is no growth or prices are rising marginally. Prices in London went up by 5.2 per cent in the second quarter on an annual basis, taking the average price of a home in the capital to £318,214, five per cent higher than their peak of 2007 === A 0.3% rise is "gathering momentum" ?? This story is gathering spin
