Let's take a look.

You are going to see the price of gold go up… a lot and it may go up a lot in a very short period of time. It’s not going to go up 10% per year for seven years and the price doubles. It’s going to chug along sideways, maybe in an upward trend, with a lot of volatility. It will have a kind of a slow grind upward… and then a spike… and then another spike… and then a super-spike. The whole thing could happen in a matter of 90 days — six months at the most.

Gold cannot possibly lose its central position as the pre-eminent money used by the world for thousands of years. The aggressive measures of the Anglo-American Axis with regard to gold are absurd and they will lead to total disaster both for the Axis, and for the world which has been forced to follow its lead for over forty years.

Is it time to admit defeat, sell our positions, slink into a cave, and lick our wounds? Absolutely not. The only thing that changed over the past 60 days was the price of gold, and perhaps the mainstream's perception of our industry.

I strongly disagree.

[It has been] suggested recently that there must be collusion between America and China over the transfer of gold from Western capital markets. They assume that governments know what they are doing, so there is a bigger game afoot of which we are unaware. The truth of the matter, though, is simply that China and Western capital markets view gold very differently. Let me explain.

We can find nothing – nothing – that has happened over the past two years that invalidates the principal reasons we've laid out for owning precious metals. [This article] looks at the key reasons why we originally recommended gold and silver plus, sadly, several new drivers that have developed recently all of which confirm that the bruised precious metal investors out there should still sleep well at night, secure that the foundational rationale for holding gold and silver remains intact.

What will the future top prices for physical gold and silver be? Naturally, no one knows for sure but many analysts have developed interesting models and scenarios as to what the future holds and this article reviews 3 such analyses for your consideration.

If you believe the government routinely lies or covers up its actions, we can't simply laugh off the idea that there's no gold in Fort Knox. Until an audit is done, the facts provide more questions than answers. [This article explores the situation, implications and possible ramifications.] Words: 892
