  • 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

    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.

  • Ratio of Gold to Silver [View article]

    How do you value a Federal Reserve Note? It's a piece of paper that others are willing to exchange goods for. Gold was money before Governments existed, FRN's are printed whenever the gov't feels like it, gold is not.

    I fail to see hopw FRN's carry more true value then a Precious Metal
