    • Leveraging Up on Precious Metals Ahead of Fed Meeting [view article]
      User52095 - tranquilo bro. this article is one person's opinion and it is argued in a comprehensive and well-researched way. to suggest that he shouldn't be publishing on SA just because you disagree or don't like it is childish. grow up and stop attacking authors that you don't like. if you want "expert opinion," go watch jim cramer.

      i believe we will see precious metals rebound in the next month, but the shorts are still holding the market back (as ted butler suggests). too bad the SEC doesn't outlaw naked shorting of all stocks (including miners) instead of just their investment bank buddies. crooks.

      slw is buy at these levels, although we might see a quick dip below $10 in the coming days. it is the hardest thing to do, but investors would be wise to buy into the current correction. this is truly a fire sale and the precious metals market will prove, as it always does, to be resilient enough to bounce back strongly from these sell-offs.

    • Metalline Mining's Silver Lining [view article]
      Stay clear of base metals. Slowing economy will erode demand. Better to be in gold and silver, metals that are seen as alternatives to fiat dollars. Jul 14 12:44 PM
    • Promising Solar Power Technologies [view article]
      i have turned bearish on pbw for the short-term. these clean energy technologies are certainly the future and most of their stock prices will be many times higher than current levels, but i think they get dragged down in the overall economic tailspin over the next 4-6 months. after bush is out of office and particularly if obama is elected, i think we will see another upleg in alternative energy companies. in the meantime, i see sideways and downward price trends.

    • What Makes Golden Star an Explosive Gold Stock for 2008? [view article]
      I like the risk/reward prospect with GSS. If they come through and increase production, the stock easily doubles. If they run into more technical issues, it continues to trade in the low $3's and maybe loses 20%. So with upside of 100% or greater and downside risk at no more than 20% (IMO), I am buying on any dips towards the $3 mark. Long GSS. Jun 22 04:17 PM
    • Food Prices Will Only Rise: The Time to Buy is Now [view article]
      Isn't in morally indefensible to speculate on a food etf, when you are in effect contributing to the increase in food prices. Speculating on DBA creates an artificial price bubble that makes food less affordable to masses of people across the globe and increases the amount suffering and death. Am I wrong? I mean, I am all for a profitable investment, but not at the expense of innocent human life. There are better ways to make money. Jun 20 01:46 PM

    • Gold Stock Bulls Are a Different Breed of Bull [view article]
      Great article and excellent advice on how to profit during the Gold Stock Bull. I agree that juniors are way undervalued and will be explosive during the next move up. More insights at goldstockbull.com. Subscribers are being sent a list of junior miners we believe will double in the next upleg. Cheers, Jason Apr 22 02:27 PM
    • Renesola: Burning Hot Solar Stock [view article]
      globalmacro,
      i am always cautious of "head fakes" in technical charts. i like to see 2-3 strong days of closes above resistance before jumping in.

      solar expert,
      i like ldk as well, but have not researched them as extensively. i doubt they will outperform sol over the next 6 months, but i could be wrong. calling renesola garbage is a bit extreme. their management team is very impressive and their financial performance backs up my confidence in the company. i think the entire sector will do well as a result high oil prices and increased government subsidies. the u.s. recession could dampen the outlook though, so i am cautious at this moment and balance my portfolio with ultrashort etfs and precious metals stocks. best of luck to all.

    • Gold and Silver: Is the Correction Over? [view article]
      Poet1,

      The miners typically offer leverage to any increase the metal realizes. This hasn't happened in the past few years, but historically speaking, returns are 2-4X greater if you own the miners vs. owning the metal.

      You can get additional leverage by picking up warrants on SLW (TSX:SLW.WT.A)

    • Gold and Silver: Is the Correction Over? [view article]
      Yeah, there are always brave posters that attack and criticize everyone else's views without offering any substantive argument and without writing their own articles. Some of these same people have left negative comments on a number of articles. I think they get some sense of superiority out of attacking others' views anonymously. Pretty weak.

      But to respond... yes CDE is an obvious choice for a silver miner moron. They are the world's largest primary silver producer. What isn't obvious about that? I was including some silver stocks to give new investors a place to start researching.

      And the 10 predictions were running contrary to what most in the investment world believed at the time they were released. So I appreciate your prediction that the sun will rise, but that really isn't comparable.

      I suggest setting tight stops on solar because I am not convinced that they have bottomed or will be able to rally in the face of a recession. So while the solar sector is explosive and looks to have bottomed, setting stops will protect from a deeper plunge in prices. Matt Callow - I think their bubble has already burst, as many companies have lost over 50% of their market cap in the past 3 months. Solar stocks could always continue lower, but I think the "bursting" has already happened to a large degree.

      Peace & prosperity to everyone during these increasingly chaotic times.       Mar 29 05:11 PM
    • How Bad Is the Dollar's Fall? [view article]
      Every time during the 6-year gold bull/dollar bear, whenever there is any correction in gold or hint of a dollar rally, people come out of the woodwork to say the commodities bull is over and the dollar has bottomed. Any they have been wrong time and time again.

      Gold is certainly an inflation hedge and while some people will continue bashing the "barbaric relic," it has beat just about any other investment that you could have made over the past 6 years. My money says it will continue to do so and the dollar will continue to lose value. The fundamentals have not changed. The Fed can still lower rates to 0%, as it did during a very similar economic situation in the 70's. Stay long gold and short the markets.       Mar 23 03:14 PM
    • My 10 Predictions for 2008 [view article]
      Are these comments for real?

      Please Georealist. My views are contrarian, not pedestrian. I appreciate the vocabulary lesson, but you are plain wrong about these views being "ordinary." And if you don't want to read other people's views on the markets, what are you doing on Seeking Alpha?

      And Al from CT - 0 for 10, eh? I am already 9 for 10 and it is only March.
      You guys are a bunch of armchair quarterbacks, tossing around insults without putting your own views on the line. Maybe you are just bitter because you keep making the wrong picks and losing money. I can help. Subscribe to view my portfolio and you will start to turn things around. Much love to the haters.

      I appreciate the positive comments, but where these posters disagreed, they were wrong. The dollar has continued down sharply and global markets have been dragged down with the U.S., as predicted in my original piece.

    • Doubling Down on Continued Weakness in Real Estate, Financials [view article]
      Just checking back in as promised.

      For those who blasted me and said it was "too late" to short the housing and financial sectors in early November, I am happy to report that SRS is up about 30% and SKF is up about 35% since I recommended them 4 months ago!

      Anyways, thanks for the spirited discussion. If you would like to view my portfolio and track my stock picks, go to login.goldstockbull.co...       Mar 09 07:38 PM
    • Gold Pulls Back - Is There a Deeper Correction Ahead? [view article]
      Malkiel,
      Not sure if you noticed, but gold is up 50% in the past 6 months. I am invested largely in Canadian stocks, which also reap the benefit of currency appreciation. But even if you were in dollar-denominated gold stocks and lost 10% to inflation, that is still way better than you could have done with just about any other investment over the past year. Are you suggesting the Dow or Nasdaq would have been a better place to invest? Sorry, but your analysis just doesn't add up and yes, all of the fundamental reasons to hold gold are still in place.       Mar 09 07:24 PM
    • Gold Pulls Back - Is There a Deeper Correction Ahead? [view article]
      Comments appreciated. I don't claim to have a crystal ball and I have certainly outsmarted myself plenty of times before, but I don't see it as silly or misguided to take some profits off the table after a huge run. I sold half of my shares in PAL and they proceeded to drop 20% in the next few days. I feel fairly confident that I will be able to invest the proceeds at lower costs in the coming days. Besides, I always maintain a larger core position and trade/lock in profits in a smaller part of my portfolio. Trailing stops are another reasonable approach, but I've had success with my strategy. And don't worry about the joints being bogarted joints Panama Red, we can smoke two joints before we smoke two joints and then we'll smoke two more.

      Best of luck to everyone in these markets. Buy and hold is certainly a viable strategy. Buy GDX, SLV, GLD and take possession of some physical metal, then go about your life and check back in a few years. But if you are interested maximizing your profits via trading, viewing my portfolio of junior producers and tracking when I am buying or selling, you can subscribe on my site. goldstockbull.com       Mar 07 03:04 PM
