When it comes to elections of politicians I simply do not vote for any of them.
My reasoning is that when you vote you are in effect encouraging the bastards.
AS for Trump or Biden...there's a good example.
Biden sounds and likely is death warmed up.
As for Trump, a lot of what he says is complete and utter gibberish and it looks like he is becoming the World's laughing stock.

The problem with Biden is that he sounds like death warmed up when he opens his mouth.
I would say his odds of winning are 100 to one.
The trouble with Trump is there is very little between his ears, and when he opens his mouth it is mostly nonsensical gibberish.

Hi Papli. Have not seen comments from you for quite a while.

Does it matter if gold goes to $400-$800 ? No.. you have gold.

If gold goes to $20,000/ounce.. you would be an idiot to swap for dollars.

I will hazard a guess and suggest that at least 95% of the world's population (>20 yrs old) would be clueless as to how dangerous it is to leave money in a bank.
Depositors are unsecured creditors and are therefore at risk of not being able to get money out if and when they want, or more specifically, need it.
Now is as good a time as ever to take it out and swap it for real money !!!

Good stuff...

Just about the silliest article ever written on 24hr.Gold
Too many people are fixated on the "price" and stupid analysis of things like cost of production, so called shortages of supply etc.

That said,a cursory glance at a monthly chart of the gold "price" ($USD) will show that it is in a strong downtrend.

$700 remains a very real possibility.

Vindication! “Whistleblower” Andrew MaGuire Is What I Suspected All Along

Dan Dontrose - The Fundamental View

(25)

Quite frankly I do not care if Maguire is a charlatan. I do not care if the D D called tops in silver and gold and advised everyone to sell.

Hoarders do not sell gold or silver except in exceptional circumstances and they keep on buying when prices are low.

My question to the Double D is...are gold and silver going to go lower or are they going to go up?
Come on Dan ,let us poor plebs in on...

I would really like to thank Mr Dontrose for exposing Maguire, calling the top in silver, and copping it on the chin when people bag him.
His business must be really thriving.
Anyway why would he be interested in developing a business when he could make so much more money by shorting silver.

Hi.
When you trade in the futures markets you are opening a contract.
That could be sell 10 x Dec Lean Hogs at such and such.
Theoretically when that contract expires you would have to deliver on that contract e.g. 10x 40,000 lbs of Lean Hog to the buyer.
I assume that happens, but speculators close out the contract before expiry date as a cash settlement.

Same with Gold. It is a contr...

Norcini: Gold is not in backwardation

Bron Suchecki - Perth Mint

I have read Weiner's and Norcini's recent articles. Both good.
The fact remains that some buyers of Gold are willing to pay a higher price at spot NOW, rather than get it at a cheaper price some time in the not too distant future(s)

I might add that long time holders and hoarders of gold are not likely to buy ( i.e swap for) $USD any time soon.
