Maybe today is a start: Au +0.34% Ag +0.64% as of this post. Time will tell.

My list of safer miners: ANV, HL, AUQ, AEM, Osisko, Detour, NEM, FNV and safer juniors: THM, NG, Kirkland, Lakeshore Slightly less safe, but still probably okay: IAG, AUY, KGC

From the Guardian: Sure makes one reconsider the housing privitization, and of course the low interest rates and state benefits.

Coming from Jason Hommel $500 is a lowball. To prepare a reasonable estimate of a top we would need to know: how much future monetary inflation, how much future price de/inflation, the future velocity of money, and the size of future defaults.

^^ From the same article: Very true.

Usually. But the mining shares are already in the gutter. Although I still have much more faith in bullion than the miners.

600 for AGQ? Given how the levered etfs work, you may lose significant value over any timeframe beyond short-term.

Seemingly 99% of King's interviewees are permabulls. One important exception is Louise Yamada; I wish she were on there more often.

Romans Holiday has explained this quite elegantly: We are fundamentally in a deflationary environment; in a deflation assets fall relative to currencies; gold is the best currency so assets fall the most against it.

Faber mainly owns gold as protection against total financial system failure. He's spoken just recently about the computers crashing and us having a reset of global finance. He does indeed view gold as a currency which is why he talks about owning gold as becoming one's own central bank. But, I agree with your point about gold's steady appreciation vs other currencies.

The birthers wanted him to release the "Certificate of Live Birth." He finally did. As was totally predictable, the birthers now say that document was forged - which is why he resisted releasing it in the first place - you can't reason with conspiracy theorists. No other US president has had their qualifications challenged in this manner. Why?

You need a vacation - seriously. "Forces of darkness?" LMAO. I will also point out that I could easily call you a liar for suggesting that Obama was not born in Hawaii, which he obviously was.

The nature of the selling in gold and silver was highly irrational, the big seller(s) was obviously not trying to maximize proceeds received. Hence, the seller seems to have been motivated by other considerations.
