  • U.S. Treasury Owned Gold: What Can It Buy? [View article]
    more illustration that the USA[we folks] is bankrupt with no plan of correction that any rational person could accept/believe.

    of what value are projections of "economic recovery" unless we know from what level of problem to what level of improvement, what timeframe[span of months], and when out of bankruptcy. as individuals we'd must know. as a nation of individuals we need to know less?

  • Gold and Silver Prices Will Begin to Shine [View article]
    folks who have not been around long or lack a good study of history fail to understand some basics--

    reversion to the mean

    buy/invest in "things you could barter or live on"

    an ounce of gold has provided the means to buy a set of clothing/shoes for thousands of years in time.

    the deflation now being experienced is a natural occurence. the previos values of things were not real. had one lived/invested with reality, that person would be less frustrated with the unfortunate circumstance of the day.

    if the velocity of the fiat world currencies is not managed properly, hyper inflation/deflation will occur. make your bet! i doubt the "just right" three bears scenario is likely to happen.

    history is sometimes prologue, but not always. we'll not know 'til it's all over.

  • Gold: The Next Reserve Currency Player [View article]
    good question. there are many who have done so for many years--even before and after the birthdate of GLD, et. al. must be reasons. good research project for you to identify all potential pro/con. start with web sites, 321gold, general "google", even SA site under CEF, GLD, SLV. maybe even an SA write-up afterwards.

    please help me understand how a holder of GLD shares can request/receive gold commodity. wouldn't a sale of GLD shares yield fiat currency?
