Commodities are down across the board. Nice pullback. What one does during moves such as these separates the pros from the shmoes.

You got HFTed.

Disagree why? Are you claiming that their motives are not purely because of "profit"? This I have to hear.

Yup, Vegans are superior beings.

Capitalism was not created via a book or theory. It emerged as a real life practice & methodology in Europe. Corporations lobby the government for purely capitalist reasons.

Explains a lot.

No, that is the myth of free market ideals. Does not exist. Capitalism is about using capital to acquire & control the resources & means of production and using labor to grow more and more profit. There is nothing in the concept that insinuates that it must be many companies competing...

It's just capitalism with strong competitive advantages for certain institutions. Not sure why you think capitalism equals a level playing field. It was never like that.

What broker do you use? I don't think IB offers that, do they?

Did not die, it "evolved"

What exactly is stupid? The fact that the prospectus clearly outlines that noone is responsible if they find out that all the silver bullion they hold is fake? Or the fact that if you want to redeem your bars there are a number of mechanisms that can be employed at will to prevent you from...

Only $50.00? Such tidbits of wisdom surely warrant a $5,000 ticker price.

Thats only for numismatic value. ASEs may get a little above spot but maybe a $1 at the most. Aside from that, you get paid spot if you're lucky or below. That being said, recently sold some unique silver bars and some junk silver within a day and at fair market value. All from a post on...

You do realize that's a Motley Fool article, right?

Since you're not making money and do not have a job, I think it is safe to say that you are unemployed.

I would love to know the names of some coin stores which will pay premium to spot for rounds & bars. I doubt that any would pay a premium for bars, as their standard operation is paying spot for name brand CME accepted bars and discount to other brands. Only way I can see premiums for rounds...

Sounds like an incubator firm. It's still just leverage, at a crappy rate. But if the future potential is there, it can make sense for some.

Have you checked with the bigger prop firms regarding a standard leverage agreement? As you trade your current $5mm, what is the leverage that you get through your broker? At the end of the day, what you're being offered is a leverage agreement. And the reality is that 55/45 is a crappy...

Well it's not an investment that is equity based. They don't share in the losses and want half the gains. It's really a debt investment backed by your capital. So you can't really claim that you have a $20mm fund, more like a special leverage agreement. Also, the funds they may be...

There has been a thread on this before. This is nothing more than a skewed leverage agreement masked as an institutional investment. The reality is that you are not exactly being trusted with investors' moneys. Additionally, there may be covenants to using this leverage, such as which...
