Thursday Outlook: Commodities, Global Markets

A terrific article !!
One thing for sure, the charts don't lie........... I use a 120 week SMA for GLD.......... got out at 74 and back in at 75 and am a happy camper............. GLD and IEF is all I have............. 95% of ppl have no reason to be in this highly volatile market......... this market is purely "pump and dump"......... believe it !!

Gold Is Going to Gain

One smart Lady !! IMHO

Protecting Yourself from a Gold ETF Bubble

It's 7:48 am, LA time and GLD is @ $95.27.......... my "stop" is @ $89.00......... I reentered @ $75.00....... so what's the problem. It's not like I actually worked for this loot (in my IRA)........ Relax, set your stops and take a break........ I'm headed to Starbucks with my latest novel,"The very Rich Hours of Count Von Stauffenberg" to hang out.

Gold: The Only Remaining Bubble?

for a graph(ic) view, try August of 2007...... that's when ppl should have started to bail out........ IMHO

A Simple Post on Gold

I know it's ridiculous, but I bought some GLD shares early in 2005 and have been adding and subtracting based on 200d SMA. When GLD was at $75.00 I started adding more and now use a 600d SMA and keep moving my "stops" accordingly......
I know, I know, I know, I'm nuts, so maybe I'll buy some C, F, MSFT, QQQQ to go with my GLD and big macs (MCD). That way I'll have a well balanced and diverse folio............
Actually, it's a good thing to have lots of cash and hunker down because this mess will last for a long time..... The great transfer of wealth has begun and will grow more intense with the current administration and it's kool aid supporters who actually think the screwups in government can do something right.......

Gold Poised to Move Higher

facts ma'm, just give me the facts........... AND SET YOUR DAMNED STOPS!!

History is bunk........... what happens to the SP500 @ 6:30 (LA time) has little relation to what the the SP500 reads @ 10am......... 1980 has little to do with 2000 or 2008

Silver and Gold: More Than Just A Christmas Carol

This guy is typical of the "Jerry Springer Generation" boobs who for now and in the near future will run L.A., California and the U.S.A. into the toilet........
A portion of your portfolio being in gold is not a bad idea and cash in your credit union and God knows where else makes sense also........
Let's not quibble about the merits of GLD, gold coins or cash. Just keep an eye on your taxes, especially death taxes.

Silver and Gold: More Than Just A Christmas Carol

bought some beginning of 2005 and added some over the years and always set "stops" so as not to ride it down to $60....... to tell the truth I use a 250 dSMA which means I did sell off but chose to get back in @ $75........ Try to buy gold eagles from the mint....... not possible........ GDX may be a good way to go at this time......... but a hell of a ride....
If one chose to buy GLD at the beginning of 2005 and held on, then !5% -18% is real...

Silver and Gold: More Than Just A Christmas Carol

After reading what some of the anti-gold guys have been saying about holding GLD, I'm convinced that the 18%/year I've achieved for the last 3 years is an illusion. I had better get off my ass and sell my GLD shares and put all those imaginary profits in C, GM, BAC, SPY, MSFT, etc,etc,etc..........

Gold: Not an Effective Hedge Against Inflation

let's forget about the name calling and talk about history and what the "experts" say. ...... will some one please come up with a list of stocks, funds and ETF's that have done better than GLD in the last few years.......

As Good as Gold?

Hey Larry, can I get a refund on your book that I bought last year.......

Here's what I think of your advice.........

Why Gold Hasn't Been a Hedge Against Inflation

big macs (MCD) has done better than GLD for the last 3 years but that is it....... GLD has done 18%/yr average since it's creation in November of 2004 so what's the problem with that......... use a 300 dSMA and SET YOUR "STOPS" then get a life. Do it in your self directed IRA to avoid tax hassles.

Why I'm Still Holding Onto Gold

"GOLD IS GOOD".......... been in it 3 years and since the dollar which is being destroyed by the fools in Washington and on Wall St. it looks like I'll be in it a lot longer....... Swiss francs (FXF) are good too....... I sold all American junk and have been heavy into Canada (EWC) and Brazil (EWZ) for over 2 years........... DJP is a favorite .......it's all about things in the ground and grow out of the ground from here on out folks, believe it.......... BUT, be sure to set your stops... :) :)

Who's to Blame for the Commodities Boom?

The real problem is the supply of resources is lessening while the demand for resources is growing......... Population growth is the real problem.......
