Gold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
re: gold as a safe haven: as with all other forms of property/money/other assets gold's value is not intrinsic but depends on what others will give you for it. unlike food, shelter, gasoline, etc in and of itself it isn't particularly useful for the individual. the problem with actually physically owning it is: what do you do with it? if you want it for "rough times" then sooner or later you will have to relinquish it either by exchanging it for increasingly worthless greenbacks in order to buy the stuff you need or bartering it directly for the stuff you need. physical gold like dollar denominated debt or a way-overvalued growth stock is subject to the greater fool theory. but as a permanent personal holding tucked away in some safe deposit box or under your mattress, what's the point? unless it makes you feel safer. frankly, in that regard a gun is more useful than gold and during "rough times" if your neighbors think you have gold--you'll need that gun.

A bad dream? The huge short cant cover, the insurers fail, gumitt panics as a complete collaspe of Comex,crap hits the fan, phyical metal holders hold all the trump cards, the head monkey slings crap at his cartel for,takeing away his thone, he has managed to sit,controling his slaves, now the slaves have the freedom from credit interest, bankers, and the now free slaves return to true money without the cartels. What a dream!!!! ReplyGold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
David...you obviously know everything there is to know about...well, probably just about everything. So I wouldn't want to bore you with anything else little ole me might happen to know, which I doubt you'd listen to anyway. So...as someone infinitely more wise than I once said--"He who has ears to hear, let him hear."BTW...just read this about what's happening in Vietnam...and which I believe will (and probably is already starting to) become more widespread: prices of goods in some of the markets, esp in the larger cities, is being adjusted to the price of gold. Those who've never really lived under a gold standard really don't understand what it means and believe it can't and won't happen again. The sheeple people of this country esp have been brainwashed to think that gold is a "barbarous relic" (as opposed to what it really is...the ULTIMATE world currency). That's what the Fed and other Central Bankers want people to think so they can continue their theiving reign...lending "money" to the Treasury...non-existen... infinite, electronic money...in return for interest payments, which the working class--that's US-- has to pay..."something for nothing, and their chicks for free." MTV's not the only way. jt

For one,mirrors are made using silver,and silver will not be confiscated as gold may and has been. The coins are already government issue, thus recognized pure silver and would be accepted by all over paper with true value. Read Theodore Butler and argue with him.

To jt and ITSEARL (and the many others of a similar mindset), I pose a question:If the "gummint" makes it illegal to trade in gold/silver or possess the physical metal -- however unlikely that seems to me -- exactly how will physical possession benefit you? Will you be able to take your ingots to the grocery store and cut off a few slivers for bread and milk, or cut off a piece to buy gas for your vehicle? I think not.
If you believe that upon the continued disintegration of the dollar, there would emerge an underground economy where gold/silver are the currencies that are trusted in, I suspect that you have no experience in working in an underground economy, or in any other activity that is proscribed by the government with penalties, prosecution, and jail time involved.
Go out any try to purchase a small amount of heroin, cocaine or even pot, and phone me from your jail cell to tell me I was right. Yes, such activities do take place, and even flourish in some places, but in the mainstream, they do not. Dealing in illegal items is a tricky business. You've been living too long in a free society if you believe otherwise, and are naive fools.
If precious metals are to provide any benefit at all, it is in their purported ability to hold their value while the fiat currencies inflate away to a tenuous nothingness. XTFs or coins from the local coin store (huge markup included) maintain their value by being able to be traded. If one cannot trade something, its value is limited to its usefulness to the owner. If you don't own a boat, and can use it as keel ballast, I think the things gold in particular can be used for (jewelry is another) is pretty limited.
And for that matter, if "the gummint" bans physical possession of gold, exactly how do you think they would confiscate all the gold jewelry that is spread throughout the population? Would they confiscate gold fillings? Is ANY of this reasonable or is there ANY historical precedent within this country for such nonsense? I think that confiscation of gold and/or silver, or even the simple banning of trading in such items is about as likely as making gun ownership illegal and confiscating all the guns in our heavily-armed nation. It simply ain't gonna happen, no matter how much some would prefer it, or others think that it will occur.
For the record, I own some gold XTFs and gold mining mutual funds, although I'm seeing a point down the road (possibly this year) when we see a periodic spike in the price of gold and it collapses back for another 20 years. I'll be selling then (I hope, timing is a dicey game), and I'm hoping y'all will still be buying at that point. Reply

I really think SeekingAlpha needs to put disclosures of ownership by these 'guest' recommendations. This article seems to be a classic case of 'talking your book.' ReplyGold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
Suggest you buy silver bars,Maple Leafs,& Eagles. Since most humans like shiny things like the pack rat does,go for the leafs with the higher face value in Canadian currancy. Take a look at ITRO (Itronics) I own some. It is for small wallets. ReplyGold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
Talking up both ISRG (PE 82.6, Market Cap 11.7B) and Dupont (PE 12.9, Market Cap 41.3B) in the same article seems to be casting a pretty wide net in hopes of catching something. ReplyGold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
DITTO "jt" Plus silver has much more upside than gold since it is rare due to 60 years of inventory depletion which has been consumed forever in industrial process. All the gold ever mined still exists above ground and sea floor. Golds' value is percieved, silver has real use and when the criminal huge short positon ends the true value of silver will allow it to also add a percieved value. A gold/silver ratio of 1/1 is possible as gold comes down by half. Switch out now! TAKE PHYSICAL POSSESION ! ReplyGold's Just Getting Started - Barron's Interview [view article]
I strongly disagree with buying ETFs, unless it's in an account where you can't buy physical gold and silver. The ETFs are still PAPER!!!...and it would appear being used to lease the supposed gold backing the paper thru the backdoor to the bullion banks, etc., for them to sell it and short it on the market to suppress the prices. It has rerouted the money that would have gone into the Physical metals into paper that can easily be controlled by TPTB...AND (think about it) can be confiscated in the future. How?...very simple...in case of a default on delivery, the govt (whoever) can simply announce that delivery cannot be made...and you will get your money in paper (whatever the heck THAT will be worth at that time...though I can guarantee you, it will be even less than now). And if you read the fine print of these ETFs...the silver ETF (SLV) for one...you have little rights to the physical metal if ANY of the conditions that could easily apply in any type of financial crash happen.Bottom line: if you consider gold and silver a safe haven (and if you have half a brain and know ANYthing about history, you'll know it is), then you will buy and have with you physical gold and silver. jt Reply

Based upon the historic data of the DJI, gold never traded at the same level (the Dow wasn't at $35 between 1900 and 1960). Just like the ECB and the Fed, it's only empty talk from bankers trying to manipulate their assets.Talk about "the pot calling the kettle black!" Reply

If you are looking at AMAG, look at RMTI too. Like AMAG, they have a new iron therapy drug to treat anemia. Initially targeting end-stage renal disease w/ addressable market of 2M patients by 2010. They are doing another Phase II & if successful should start III in 2009. Only pure play iron play left that still cheap. Reply2007 Biotech Performance Review [view article]
