  • And the Real Inflation-Adjusted High for Gold Is... [View article]
    Obama will take jobs over riots,,,, ANY day. Than means inflation, because the USD will move lower against China, Norway, Australia, Saudi and all other nations that have their public spending in order. GBP will probably move in tandem with the USD. Gold might however have less of a run compared to Silver, since silver has more industrial uses than gold. And people do not fix their teeths with gold any more, that leaves vanity and stockpiling. And I think the industries like RFID that uses silver, might move up before the level of stockpiling and vanity spending increases.

  • Yen, Gold and the Perfect Desert Storm [View article]
    Gold has less legs than silver right now. Silver has a larger industrial user base, longer history of being used as a currency, and has not appreciated as much as gold.

  • Motorola Hitches Its Wagon to a Star [View article]
    spot on. nokia is in old territory when it is pushing its Navteq. Google maps is everywhere, and the launch of the google map for mobiles, is a killer. Motorola is doing completely right when hooking up with google.

  • Hold That Gold! [View article]
    A basket of goodies in a new currency standard.
    Would it not be a good idea to have an over weighting of green energy forms, such as Hydrogen for instance, in order to focus and aggregate resources to make hydrogen more abundant (cheap)? Just as Gold is drilled for in order to make a buck (whatever that will be), so would hydrogen be produced and stored. After all, money is like energy. And we do not want to much fluctuations in the energy supply.

  • How to Play the Next Great Bull - Matt McCall [View article]
    Cash is king. Well probably- but what kind of cash? so when i doubt, stay out- and therefore in some cash equivalent. One of the better bets historically is silver. It has a longer history of being a medium for money (i.e. shekels), and it has more industrial uses than gold (i.e. RF-ID tags). In regards to Lithium, there are some new batteries coming on the market next year, that matches and surpasses Lithium. Investor (the wallenbergs) in sweden owns it.

  • U.S. Natural Gas ETF: What You Need to Know [View article]
    There are a couple of stocks to invest in, in case you could settle for the indirect possible upside in gasprices. You do not have to invest in an ETF. And then you could spread the risks more evenly- Europe, Russia, USA, Brazil. And still partake in the ratio game- but with less risk.

  • America's Mammoth Natural Gas Inheritance: The Burden of Transition [View article]
    reagan won the war at the battle on Iceland. Iceland is now one of the worlds largest holder of potential hydrogen reserves. Abundant energy. Clean energy, without any co2 emissions. Why did we not buy Island when it was dirt cheap. (well it still is). Yes, a quick refitting of coal burning plants, to NG. But while refitting and building out, lets make sure, the system can handle hydrogen as well. (if possible- i really dont know).
