    Nobody KNOWS the future but c'mon we all have ideas and opinions, like imo silver getting back to 40+ before touching 10 again
    yeah don't believe the gold will hit $10,000 and silver will hit $1000 an ounce touts. but precious metals such as gold and silver are legit if you get in at the right times. people always make the mistake of buying high and get burned.

    silver will not dip below $10 and gold will not dip below $1000 an ounce anytime soon or never.

    I've been in cash for some time now because my feeling has always been that around the time of the election into 2nd quarter 2017 there would be a big drop in the market, at which time I would get in. It may or may not have to do with the election, it just seems like another reason since the timing is right and US equities are crazily overvalued.

    Gold now in free fall today. Is George Soros selling his gold?

    Strong NFP report made the dollar stronger. Nothing more.

    Don't know who, but the reasons could have been anything. Thought price was gonna drop, wanted to liquidate, etc.

    May very well be a bet on Yellen's Jackson Hole speech leaning towards rate hikes.

    Yeah, good point. Could be inside info on that. A lot of people don't think a .25 rate hike is going to even do that much, since we haven't raised rates in like 8 years. I've closed every position I have just in case, even though it's probably nothing.

    All I know is that something big is definitely on the horizon. Volumes are at their lowest in a long time. Market coiling up.

    Chaos theory -- Chaos, into order (what we have now), and then back again.

    Word on the street is gauchojake needed to free up some vault space for an incoming platinum shipment. Temporary market correction, nothing to worry about.

    Again, it was bad dollar news this morning that made it go up.

    I'm close to going long myself though.
