Gold: Stabilization Points to a Buying Opportunity

I have been living in a gold environment since 1973...when one had to know the geology of South Africa and mine life and depth..etc.

It is much harder, physiologically, to buy back in than it is to maintain a position. In short, I loose much more trying to time entry than staying in for the longer term. I sleep well at night, too.

What Does Bloomberg Have Against Gold?

Wouldn't the real question be "Why does Seeking Alpha pump gold?"

No!

Gold Gets Hammered on Jobs Data

I spent half of my PM mad money Fri., saving some in case Gold goes lower...If not, I'll buy on the next dip. I am heavily in GDX, GBG, SLW, and GLD. ( a few others that are long shots) I am along for the ride.

Great Basin Revisited

I see GBG as one of the most promising in the line up of the many small developers that are on the pre-production cusp. I have owned it for a couple years and cried the tears, but can see no reason to sell. It would have been a great trade vehicle but I missed the timing so I held. I say buy now or on the dips. It has a payday in the near future.

Paulson Makes His Biggest Bet on Gold, Inflation Yet

I think Paulson is betting more on the madness (or delusion) of crowds, and his fund fees (1-1/2 plus 20%)....but then, aren't we all?

I think one should hold gold and silver in coin form to the extent of emotional capacity (It will be a rough ride to the summit). And look to miners and derivative ETFs, ETNs for trades. Repeat, this is not gonna be a walk through the park. One must take profits and invest in land and agriculture (food) when possible. Look for chances to enter Alternative Energy and Water with PM profits down the line.

I am very much bullish on PMs....love to feel the coins in my hands.

Gold, Oil Majors Revisited

Viet Nam, Malaysia, India, China, all buy gold jewelry in 24K form measured in Tael Weight. It is crude casting or stamped. There is no artistic premium and it sells near spot price, in or out. It is common to pinch or clip bits of the bracelet, bangle or ring and sell or trade with it....it is a 4,000 year old form of money in use today as always.

New York, London, Paris, Rome (western world): In contrast, no one is buying 18K, 14K, artistic gold creations at tremendous premiums, 10 times or more than spot.

And don't look now, but the Asian communities in USA and Europe are practicing that same gold business as mentioned above...go to an Asian shopping center and look in the jewelry stores or ask for Tael and you will be amazed at the display of artless 24K bangles made for chopping.

Just my two bits.

Sounds like you been huffing a litle of that Maui-Whowee, Steve-0.

Another Crisis Looms Right Around the Corner

Normally, in times such as these the peasants take up pitchforks and hoe handles to storm the Bastille; however, the peasants can't read or listen to anything other than ear-plug music and reality TV...oh well.

What will happen when cable is priced out of reach to the dirty masses, music and game software become to rich for the peons; will they attack with their super-sized drink cups in hand..... They will die in the streets of worse than rubber bullets, water canon sweeps and inconceivable ignorance.

Try 1910 in Mexico, or 1789 in France.

Louis James on 'Best of the Best' Metal Miners

to mb kelly:

Apparently you and I have some experience around this arena. I wasn't particularly aiming at your comment, just trying to spread a note of caution. And, make note of the fact that I don't like Casey and his crew...however, I do read some of the posts there. I would love to find a rock with some gold in it or a nugget even...I even dream of buying a metal detector and looking for Centenarios down in Mexico (where I live).

Fed Sends Gold Higher, But What Is It Good For?

Today, this era, is like no other in the last 50 to 60 years. To compare today to year 2000, 1980 or whenever is senseless.

Compare it to the days in France before 1789, or Mexico before 1910.

The economics of today call for a complete cleansing of our (USA) government....vote no to incumbents, period.
