Gold will hit $8,000 by 2015 and if the gold:silver ratio reverts to norm silver will reach $400. Gold and silver are so cheap today you should ignore the current price and just pick one day every month and buy the precious metals. 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].

The magnitude of current private and government debt, coupled with massive unfunded contingent liabilities for promises of future services to their citizens, will prove to be impossible for many nations to fund. Massive inflation in the money supply will become the preferred vehicle to deflect the default monster and will result in vastly devalued currencies and price inflation as a prelude to default. Such action will be a desperate attempt to buy time to stave off the inevitable and will result in social unrest caused by persons whose comfortable lifestyle and elevated standard of living is about to disintegrate before their very eyes.

[What we are experiencing these days] is a race to the bottom among global currencies. Whenever any nation wants to gain a little bit more of an edge in global trade they push the value of their currency down just a little bit more so that the products and services produced by that nation will be less expensive for other nations [and, as such,] other nations will buy more of those products and services. When exports go up, employment goes up and more wealth flows into the country. Who is the winner in all of this? Well, that is easy. Gold, silver and other precious metals will continue to be the winners as fiat currencies all over the globe continue to decline in value. Words: 1430

Something has drastically changed in the silver market. The banks that once controlled the price of silver are now closing positions at a loss. The commercial shorts have begun to bleed money – and when blood spills sharks will circle. Hedge funds and traders that never even thought of silver before will begin to squeeze the shorts. If the big banks don't quickly regain control of the silver market they may lose it forever. Words: 733

[Are you one of the] millions of people who lost money over the past decade in stocks and housing [who] are now buying bonds, annuities, and other fixed deposit credit based investments? [If so you are probably doing so because you] think it is the conservative [thing to do but, in fact, you] are really a [being a] speculator buying an asset far above its intrinsic value with the idea that someone else will pay even more [and such action] is guaranteed to disappoint. [Instead, you should make] alternative investments the core of your portfolio. Words: 834

The gold price has enjoyed an advance of [approx. $100 since the end of September so] we are probably facing some profit taking and correction, right? Not exactly. Words: 693

During the panic of 2008, miners in general – and junior miners in particular – were devastated by the Wall Street-engineered sell-off, with many losing more than 90% of their value. With these companies sitting at once-in-a-lifetime valuations, no one (outside of the hardcore commodities investors) wanted to touch these companies. [That's not the situation any more!] Words: 1160
