Despite all the reasons to be bullish gold and silver all of my indicators tell me this is [still] NOT the time to be buying. Words: 910

It is fascinating to be living during the greatest Precious Metals (PM) Bull Market in history – and to be entering its Seasonal Strength - and I look forward to keeping you informed on a regular basis throughout 2011 as it unfolds. Words: 1119

The Holiday Season often tends to usher in strength for the Precious Metals Sector and this is especially true for those Holiday Seasons which are related in a fractal pattern. Indeed, we expect to see a sharp rise (approx. 70%) in the HUI Index starting the week after Christmas with a secondary run-up into May of 2011. Words: 360

In Europe, they were able to come up with a clever moniker, PIGS, to succinctly represent [and name the countries in dire financial straights - Portugal, Iceland, Ireland, Greece and Spain] the most boorish animals on the farm, and [I have taken it upon myself to call the U.S. state budget crises] the story of CAIN (California, Arizona, Alaska, Illinois, New York and New Jersey), the seven most rotten pillars of our union, and (Un)Abel, the country as a whole, which is (Un)Abel, i.e. unable, to do anything about the impending crises. Given the current political climate and implicit anti-bailout mandate of the new Congress, the Federal government might be powerless to do anything but accept painful state defaults. Before we know it, we could all be ancestors of evil... 2011 could be the year that CAIN starts to face some serious trouble, and may need some serious help to avoid killing his brother (Un)Abel!

All indications are that we are at the 3rd wave juncture where the large cap gold and silver producer stocks and intermediate precious metals producer/developer stocks tend to start to move much better, and where the smaller explorer class starts to kick up it's heels. Let me show you what I mean with a few charts that will give you a clear visual of why you ain't seen nothing yet when it come to the future performance of the stocks (and warrants) of gold and silver mining and royalty companies.

Sometimes you will get them at a lower price and sometimes you will pay more, but, over time you will accumulate the precious metals at a good average cost. Words: 1236

No wishful thinking here! As I see it gold is going to a parabolic top of $10,000 by 2012 for very good reasons - sovereign debt defaults, bankruptcies of “too big to fail” banks and other financial entities, currency inflation and devaluations - which will all contribute to rampant price inflation.

Many investors are struggling to understand the ramifications of the recently announced quantitative easing (QE) plan. The bottom line is that: QE (2) has major future implications for inflation and price of gold and silver. Words: 668

The first round of QE had already guaranteed that the U.S. dollar was going to be under severe duress by next spring and Bernanke has just added insult to injury with his latest quantitative easing virtually guaranteeing that we will have a major currency crisis by next spring [and that can only mean one thing - a parabolic move upwards in the price of gold].
