Mark/JJ: most recent theories suggest black holes *do* emit energy:

LHC generates only a fraction of the energy of cosmic rays hitting Earth all the time. If it was going to create a singularity from same rays, don't you think odds are higher one would have naturally hit Earth some time in the past zillion years?

Also, read your own article link: LHC helium was caused by good old-fashioned equipment failure.

I admire the level of detail in your analysis, and your candor in admitting that you've been short-term wrong on SWC and PAL.

Agree that hoarding instincts may drive the stocks higher. However, there is no similar inflationary force like 1980, but a debt-destruction-fuele... deflationary one.

Will have to check your GM sales data vs retail auto sales data. Initial reaction is that the platinum is still a closed-loop, and whether it sits on dealers' lots or in customers' garages, it's the actual auto production minus guzzlers' Pt reclaimed that matters.

Wish I knew if older cars used more or less Pt than new ones...
