  • How Much Gold DO You Need?  [View article]

    Go to India, go to Asia, take a trip to the Middle East..Gold = Wealth. Paper is used for daily transactions..only a fool would store his wealth in paper guaranteed by the good faith of a bankrupt government that doesn't even have control over it's issuance.

  • Are Gold Funds a Buy Again? [View article]
    "you've got Van Eck's Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSE: GDX) on the ETF side, with $2.38 billion in assets of its own. Ironically, the reason people like GDX is that it sometimes shows more volatility than the price of bullion itself (which may feel counterintuitive with the way gold-mining companies hedge the price of gold. But that's the stock market for you, I guess)."


    The Miners in GDX are not hedged

  • Why IMF Gold Sales Won't Affect the Gold Market [View article]
    If they're trying to raise cass wouldn't it benefit them to keep their mouth shut and maintain a high POG?

    This Gold will never hit the market, if it really is being sold it will be bought as soon as it's offered. It's just a distraction to keep the POG down while they print a few more Trillion.

    If you get suckered out of your Gold then your statement rings true.

  • What's Another $1.15 Trillion? [View article]
    Nope, I can't solve the worlds problems in 5 minutes but the robbery is in clear sight. The money won't be paid back, if these companies had the ability to pay the money back they never would of needed it in the first place.

    The Fed purchased $300 billion in bonds today..where did that money come from? It came from the existing money in your pocket and bank account.

    the U.S is BROKE, it is a bankrupt country. We do not have a viable Economy. We do not have the ability to cover our obligations without increasing our money supply. We can not cover our Foreign Debts without inflating our money supply. When you increase the money supply you ROB the people. When you increase taxes to pay for the bailouts you are ROBBING the people.

    It does not take a Genius to see that we're being taken to the cleaners.

    Wake up

    and if Lawson Heals up I'm picking the Tar Heels to take it

  • Protecting Yourself from a Gold ETF Bubble [View article]
    "On the other hand, SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) is now routinely turning over $2 billion worth of trading each day, which might give investors pause. Is it becoming a herd mentality?"

    AAPL also turns over $2B a day..what's your point?

    you're really not giving Gold the respect it deserves. maybe you haven't noticed that the Worlds Economy is currently imploding? Gold has been and remains Money, when Fiat collapses Gold still shines

  • What Is Going On With Gold? [View article]

    Paul - Yes I know. But at 20% we cannot afford to make the interest payment on our debt. We have much more debt then we had in the early 80's and our debt is now in short term treasuries!

    we're caught between a rock and a hard place and we have nowhere to move...

    Inflate or die

    Paul - Interest rates cannot go up to 25% at 25% the U.S cannot afford the interest payment and we would default.

    U.S Economoy Superior to the Japanese? Really?

    If we're superior then why do we need to borrow money from the inferior Japanese Economy just to stay afloat?

    The U.S Economy is a Ponzi scheme that is rapidly falling apart.

    Chris - If we raise the Rates to Double Digits like in the 80's we won't even be able to afford the interest payment!

    Raise rates and we default, keep rates low and we'll have masssive Inflation in the future.
