I believe the signals show that silver is either at, or very close to, a short-term top. Let me explain.

Bitcoin is a decentralized, global, peer-to-peer, digital, online currency but, that said, most are unsure whether or not it is the future of currency and unaware of the potentially massive impacts this crypto-currency holds. The infographic below shows you the ins and outs of everyday Bitcoin use as a way to save money and provide more autonomy in your financial transactions.

Might our Inflation-Deflation Watch be suggesting a breakout in asset price inflation is about to take place?

I have to admit, this is a very hard call to make and I could easily be wrong...but I am courageously sticking my neck out here and stating that we have most likely seen the lows for the broad metals & mining sector.

The U.S. Dollar Index has fallen through support at 80 once again. If this current decline trend continues it will drop below 79.20 for the first time in nearly two years.

No, I'm not out of my mind. Quite to the contrary, I believe I am the one analyst who really understands the forces that are building to enable such to occur. Read on to learn about my enviable track record over the years and specifically why such gains will be realized over the next three years.

For thousands of years, gold has been the international currency, and for good reason. Gold is a substance that is in high demand and there is a finite amount that can be produced.

Let's take a closer look at the relationship between bitcoin and gold in this extremely informative infographic.

The American dollar will be overthrown...in as short a period as 5 to 10 years says one analyst while another believes it will happen as early as 2015, 2016 latest. Here's why.

In the process they are setting the stage for gold and silver to explode higher with gold going up to well over $5,000 an ounce a few years from now … silver to more than $125 an ounce … and mining shares, to the moon.
