That last point is a real stinker ain't it?

Telling America they are not impressed!

Can't say I blame them, but it is all thanks to the desire of morons to follow Obama down the drain...

I bought more silver when it was below 40, no way in hell is that not going up more.

Gold is a solid hold.

Up up and away...and the next round of QE hasn't even kicked in yet...

It's really getting hard to hang on, considering I bought all mine in the 90's.

I hear ya.  If you have needs to address that would be taken care of with some liquidation of position the temptation must be palpable.

Saudi Press Agency   [blockquote]
Quote
Berlin, ...A leading member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's
government called Tuesday for cash-strapped eurozone members to use
their gold reserves as collateral for any future bailouts, according to dpa.

Labour Minister Ursula von der Leyen said in the future that money
from the European Union-led rescue fund should only be paid out when
the states receiving the assistance provided collateral.

Von der Leyen believes that the gold reserves and industrial
holdings held by many nations could be used as collateral for loans,
according to information from German public television. ...

If they were cash-strapped...

That's fine with me, hit your customers, dump holdings to cover, silver dips below $40 and I'll buy more thank you very much!

My friend, you are a true believer.  I'm in hold or sell mode. 
Although, all things considered, 2200 being the peak in the 80s and this run being worse it could go to 3 before it falls.

Betting on stupid to continue seems the only logical play.  I'm not fearful of bubble scares, it would require a return to sane policies and something better to invest in for that fear to be true. Hell. I'd go in top end commercial paper before anything else, it's the only other thing holding up right now.

I thought oil was dropping, but locally SuperAmerica/Speedway declared it gouge day, and all the lemmings have followed them (as they do in all markets controlled by this chain) so let's see...

WTI - $84.65
Gas - $2.96, + 55c or so for taxes shipping  = $3.51...which is why SA is gouging $3.859   ::rockets::
Copper - $4.14
Gold $1,793.50 (that plunge lasted a long time...  ::))
Silver $41.19
