      The Manipulation of Gold Prices
      Other commodities won't remain low because of fundamentals, whatever else is going on. We're at peak everything and creating a greater crisis by forcing the prices of oil, grains, etc. down. Mines have closed and exploration has stopped. Even nat gas wells have shut down. This portends greater shortages at a time when we need supply, even with some U.S. demand destruction. Infrastructure, furthermore, requires base metals. The markets aren't smart. They're stupid and shortsighted.

      This would seem to be the case from everything I read, and I read a lot. See Ted Butler's commentary on these issues in re silver.

      High Premiums on Silver? Better to Buy Gold
      I hold silver eagles for barter purposes in a push-came- to-shove economy.

      Misleading Gold Headline of the Day
      Right on. The only thing holding in my portfolio is gold--and I've made quite decent money on it over a relatively short window of time.

      The American Crisis and the Case for an Inflationary Depression
      Yes, inflationary depression, and yes, gold has value--it's built into the human consciousness by thousands of years of history. However, I think the DOW will rise with inflation just as the Zimbabwe stock market has risen enormously--that is, in nominal terms.

      Analysts Are Bullish on Gold: Should You Be Worried?
      According to Ted Butler, JP Morgan is trying to suck up all the silver out there. Gold and silver run together, by the way. Humorous markets for those left with a sense of humor.

      The Coming Dollar Deflation
      <<Even if it that only has a probabilistic relationship with the supply of money, it still has to come from somewhere. >>

      If only. They simply monetize the debt, aka printing money. Treasury sells Treasuries to the Federal Reserve, which creates the money out of thin air. It comes from nowhere. That's why they say a gold-backed currency has a built-in safety valve. With a gold-backed currency, you must have something backing the money.

      High Premiums on Silver? Better to Buy Gold
      <<Finally, silver is heading for a substantial rally soon. It will be profitable but it won’t go as high as you think it will. Furthermore it will last a matter of months and not years. >>

      What a strange thing to say unless you're a time traveller. How far ahead have you seen, and what else can you tell us?

      Speaking of predictions, have you read *The Black Swan* about the unpredictablity of markets?

      Don't Give Up on Gold Just Yet
      I haven't lost money in gold. Gold has performed admirably in a horrible environment.

      Even if you bought at $1,000, you'll be very happy with gold over the next few years.

      And, by the way, I'd be surprised if the author actually understood the impact of deleveraging before it occurred. Hindsight is 20/20.

      The Coming Dollar Deflation
      Mr. Bailey, You are very wrong. Please doubt yourself because gold is going up and the dollar down. You're going to be in a terrible pickle if you're betting on the dollar. Please hedge your bets. Look at the fundamentals. The U.S. is in monumental trouble. I hope the president-elect can ameliorate the situation somewhat--he's a smart man and might change his policies before we go into a disastrous hyperinflation from which there is no return. Please, for the sake of your family, study a little more, such as at Finacial Sense Newshour or Kitco.com.

      Marc Faber Says Time to Buy Gold Exploration Stocks
      He's not the first to make the call if you follow the sector--though I like him. It's a down day, but there are lots of bargains in excellent, well capitalized companies. Go to Kitco.com and start reading press released and researching the companies. What I own that I think will survive: Bravo Gold, Impact Silver, Sabina Silver, Canadian Zinc (silver), Mines Management, Mineras Andes, Everton, Pelangio, and U.S. Gold. I own others that I believe will recover after a while, but I wouldn't suggest them as stocks yet. I'd suggest taking a chance with Northern Dynasty, which is backed by two of the majors plus Mitsubishi and has enormous resources in the ground. It's incredibly beaten down.

      Gold Trade Proves Spectacular to the Upside
      Oops, gold dropped. It's still the only place to be right now, aside from silver, oil, and ag, but jeez, Louise... It's like herding cats. :)

      We're certainly at a change point, whatever that means, and whenever that happens.
