Whenever I travel, I am always amazed at the differences I encounter. However, I would never have imagined an entire country so open to prostitution. http://www.thailandguru.com/thai-girlfriends-ladies-women-prostitutes.html

Good points which helped me understand the economics of the situation a little better: In the early part of this decade, real estate was appreciating in value and banks wanted to make loans for the profit. They relaxed their lending standards in order to attract more business, but thereby...

I think that there are a few countries in the middle East and Africa where chaos and riots may occur until someone gains control. But, as a whole, I think that our superior attitude that we have to police the world is ridiculous. It has bankrupted our country and has created worldwide hatred...

You are correct, however, it is amazing to me that the US dollar can go up in value despite the vast quantity of paper money the Fed has printed this year. http://www.chartingstocks.net/2009/03/chart-of-the-us-money-supply-1917-2009/ Unfortunately, the rise in value of the US dollar only...

What if the US defaults on its debt? Did you mean what or when? A default is virtually certain unless some some sort of debt restructuring occurs or unless their is adoption of a new world order with a new world currency. China will never invade the US. We have one of the highest per...

The only problem with silver bullion is that it is so bulky and heavy. It is a lot easier to handle and store 10 one ounce gold American eagles than 600 one ounce silver eagles. However, I agree that silver is a much better value right now than gold. We also just had a very nice pullback in...

Either that or simply a retracement. Some traders consider a pullback in an uptrend to be a buying opportunity. :) Although my tight stops got me out of several mining stocks, I will get back in when the current retracement ends if the COT report indicates that smart money is buying gold...

The stock market and gold have been moving in the same direction since March of this year. But what if we had a severe multi-week stock market correction, combined with rising gold prices. Would gold stocks go up along with the price of gold or down with the general stock market? In other...

Entertaining video that I agree with, although with some slight differences: 1. You cannot go wrong with a Glock, but it does not have a safety. A lot of police officers carry the Springfield XD, which has several safety features. The .40 caliber has more stopping power (and a lot more kick)...

Everyone is kicking themselves for not buying more gold sooner. People, funds and countries are waiting for a multi-day (or better yet, a multi-week pullback) to buy more gold. However, on most days, the only way to get in on a pullback is intraday. Even when Dubai defaulted and gold went down...

Gold does not seem to be respecting levels since it passed $1000. It just blew through $1100 and seems to be doing so at $1200 as well. The only thing that will cause a temporary correction in gold is another global catastrophe that will cause fear in the markets and a rush back into the US...

The US Dollar will continue to decline in value as long as the Fed keeps printing money. The Fed does not care how low the dollar goes despite their rhetoric. It could very easily go to zero and be replaced by a new world currency. In fact, that may be their plan. Since our country is...

Are you sure about that? Unless there has been passage of a new law, debit card theft is not protected as well as credit cards theft: http://www.pirg.org/consumer/banks/debit/fact.htm

You raise a very good point that I had not considered. Everyone talks about Canada, Russia, the Mid-East, China and Australia as being rich in natural resources because they have gold and/or oil. But our country is rich in the natural resource of food production. I don't keep track of...

Wouldn't it be funny if everyone in foreclosure took the bank to court? Maybe that would keep the lawyers busy enough that they would decrease the frivolous malpractice cases against doctors, which would decrease health care costs. After all, isn't it the bank's fault if they missed a potential...

The US Dollar Index is breaking lower again today, just like it did the day before and after Thanksgiving, 2006. It is propelling gold to new highs. No breather for gold today!

Unless California bans big screen TVs, then indium demand could decrease: http://www.techradar.com/news/television/california-set-to-ban-energy-sapping-big-tvs-652263

It depends upon your time frame (long-term, short-term or day trading) and what you want to trade (stocks, futures, Forex, options, etc.) For trading in general, my favorite book is High Probability Trading by Marcel Link. Although I have read many books, most of the best information I...

Here is an interesting recent article that addresses several points mentioned in this thread: http://www.safehaven.com/article-15078.htm
