I agree with the notion of deflation of non essentials VS inflation of essentials, the only problem I see is the rising of precious metals in such a scenario as they would not be rated as truly essential I would think. Unless ofcourse the suply demand story tips in favour of them to such an...

You agree in his assessment apparently that the US financial sector is out of intensive care, Makloda?

Jim Rogers: Dow 1 Million? Sure, Why Not? http://www.lewrockwell.com/rogers-j/rogers-j18.html :D

Martin Armstrong: Gold Headed To $5,000 And Beyond! http://www.businessinsider.com/martin-armstrong-gold-headed-to-5000-and-beyond-2009-11 :cool:

The Indian populace owns approximately 15000 tons of gold which accounts for 1/2 of all the gold in the world not held by central banks. I guess these poor sobs will see the value of their gold holdings get annihilated whishing they had bought the good ol USD instead.

Louise Yamada says gold possibly in phase 2 with a target of 2k, phase 3 (the mania!) coming afterwards.:) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F626xeHPkDE

Thanks for the link. Paulson is deep into gold as well since spring and has already made hundreds of millions in a stock like Anglogold alone. Let's see if it continues and he becomes the biggest of them all.

Many economists are optimistic that America’s Great Recession may be turning the corner. States, however, are not celebrating. Plagued by record-setting revenue losses, the housing bust and credit crisis, high unemployment and a host of other challenges, states have struggled through nearly...

I thought the term was refered to as biflation?

How about central banks doubling their balance sheet? Most of the developed world running 'war time' deficits? Several large US states on the brink of insolvency if not already there? USD hovering around all time lows? Am I forgetting any reasons?

I'd be interested to hear ET members their opinion on this. Obviously the dream of all traders is to hit the jackpot and make it bigtime so you can go to Hawai and retire op Pina Colada's at the age of 25... So from that perspective I guess working ranks as a curse. Also, working hard...

Aren't the bank of Japan and the FED very closely linked to each other perhaps even more so then the ECB with the FED?:)

I once opened a topic on this subject but no answers. How to determine 'the contrarian' side. And even if you identified it correctly it's not to say your contratianism will pay off accordingly.:)

+1 Or was there a central bank controlling the suply of tulips?

It's a religion, I agree. I think that's because it has both moral (anti government, anti central banks, etc...) as investment appeal to it. Very few other assets do that. You own real estate because you like to do the plumbing there? You own bankstocks...because you love Wall Street...

We have had this discussion before so for once I will let Faber answer himself with a quote from one of his newsletters.:) There are some people who believe that we investment advisors and fund managers should know everything and that our forecasts should always be accurate. The...

Actually, in my view most even hard core gold bugs will exit at least to a degree if and when DOW and gold meet each other. Unfathomable to non gold bugs such a thing ever happening again so I guess when looking at it through that perspective they will indeed give up on their holdings rather...

Well, it was more of a joke really due to the implicit suggestion by Spindro of Faber being a sell out gone mainstream only talking shit to rack up his convention fees and driving the sheep into the ground. I'd say if Spindro has a problem with that kind of financial 'advisors' there are...

No, because the chief of Goldman Sachs says he is bearish on gold. You have to dare being a contrarian versus main stream pundits to make money, right?
