Silver Prices Are About to Fall

Plenty of silver with the base metal mining? We're in a silver shortage position and have been living off recycled silver, which can't go on forever, with more and more silver uses.

Until there's a dollar event? Good heavens--look at the dollar chart. This is the event. The dollar is sliding, sliding, sliding. That's an event.

And you trust the Fed to stop monetizing the debt? On what planet?

As for the Buffet bet on Burlington Northern, that's a bet on peak oil, not a bet on growth. It' a bet on diminished trucking and an interesting step at that.

In Search of Elephants: Purchase or Perish in the Gold Mining Industry

NAK's Pebble project in Alaska is 94 million ounces of gold plus copper, plus...--but it already has big partners.

Gold and Silver 'Bubble' Has Long Way to Go

Yes, I have wealthy friends who are tiptoeing into gold after I've been hounding them for years. They're cautious on the market, but relying on "safe" fixed rate investments. At any rate, we're certainly not in a bubble. Gold and silver are are of very few investments you can make right now and are very underpriced. I switched from GLD into SGOL--I have a bunch of physical and miners. I also went into the new SILV. And it's true that the rise in many of the miners is merely correcting an incredible, undeserved crash. But I did buy a bunch of SLW at a little over $3.

Gold Pierces Through 'Resistance'

On the other hand the dollar and gold aren't always in lockstep opposition. You may have a chance to buy lower, of course, but in the long run it probably won't matter significantly. Unless you're buying enormous quantities. And in what form?

The World's Top 10 Gold Miners by Value

I wouldn't exactly say that bullion prices have been volatile. I'd say "rangebound" or "consolidating."

5 Reasons Not to Buy the Canada ETF

"It might also be a recipe for disaster if the price of gold is far out of range."

What does this mean? That the gold miners won't make more money with a higher priced gold? That people will stop buying gold? That's a very mistaken assumption. When conditions worsen and more money pours into gold, even more money will pour into gold--which is actually a relatively small market.

Is the U.S. Dollar Headed for a Mighty Crash? Part I

The Chinese are much more sophisticated than we are. They think in terms of decades in the future. Long-term planning in Washington is said to be two weeks. The Chinese have been buying gold since 2003 and only a month or so ago revealed this truth--in order to warn the U.S. about its dollar policies.

Anyone paying attention sees the handwriting on the wall. It's not a matter of belief. It's a matter of looking at the facts.

Why Gold Is Losing Its Shine

Treasuring PRICES are declining. Long-term rates are rising. That's BAD for the Treasury market. Bad for borrowing. Bad for those of us who live in the United States. Unless you're in precious metals.

Why Gold Is Losing Its Shine

Danny, Danny, Danny. All the above. But it's good to know that some folks are on the wrong side of the trade.

Will Gold Stock Earnings Surprise Anyone?

And then another turning point comes and it's all different again. What's the turning point? A technical chartist's hidden pivot? An international incident? Or do these two strangely coincide? Hold a few gold and silver stocks as well as physical. The PMs have gotten beaten up this week so buy.

Are We More Like 1932 - or 1923?

Yes. All true. Physical gold is good, too, and lots of good gold stocks are out there. Silver is nice as well and some say it will outperform.

Gold Is Going to Gain

Paul & Shark,

Gain can mean not losing all your money, having a roof over your head, and eating.

Precious Metals Are Bullish on Pullback

Gold looked quite strong overnight and rose to 952 before I went to bed. It's still relatively strong compared to what the analysts predict, a fall to the 850-880 area before spiking up. Here's your buying opportunity. At least hedge a little for your own personal safety.

No Gold Bubble

Maybe the COMEX shorts will start covering. When I say shorts, I mean mostly J. P. Morgan. And Jamie Dimon seems so nice on TV. Insert bad word here.

A Golden Investment in 2009 and Beyond

This will be the year of gold. Whether it will continue thereafter, who can say. But the miners are a buy. And silver. Ah, the wonder of silver, which is in short supply.
