Who Else Has Been Buying Gold?

You are 100% right. The move started years ago... it all depends on your timing..I honestly do not know any trend followers who have been long since the early 2000 periods...but when there is a price breakout... trend followers take their shots...all the best

GLD Soars on Fed Announcement; Headed for All-Time Highs

What about silver... as I am watching the market it is up today 13.49%... this is truly mind boggling ...more so yesterdays move in gold...or should I say volatility was immense... all of this confirms...have a plan... know where to buy...know where to exit with either a profit or loss... the volatility in the markets is awesome...

What's Another $1.15 Trillion?

Two Words...

Waste

Inflation

Can the Fed Really Just Print Money?

Watch for the Long Bond to start falling this is a Jim Rogers Trade...but so obvious... just as the housing bubble no one wanted to see....
