Despite Fed actions that will clearly devalue the dollar, billionaire investor George Soros keeps telling the public that “nothing is safe” and gold is the “ultimate bubble.” (Click here to see the most recent Soros interview on gold.) I am puzzled why Soros says negative things about the precious metal when the biggest holding in his $25 billion hedge fund is GOLD!
Jim Willie from the “Hat Trick” newsletter said this week, “Calls of a gold bubble are shallow moronic pontifications, since the sanctioned asset bubble is the mammoth USTreasury variety. It is the last bubble before systemic failure. . . . The Gold bull will continue as long as the cost of money is negative. Investors flee the conventional paper vehicles like stocks, bonds, and housing since the system is failing and paper money in which values are denominated is fast becoming meaningless. The food prices are the big alarm bell in addition to the Gold price. Both are canaries in the coal mine. The canary is dead or dying.” (Click here for the complete Jim Willie post.)
Famed gold investor Jim Sinclair has been calling for gold to hit “$1,650 per ounce on or before January 14, 2011” for several years. Now others are making similar calls such as Deutsche Bank. In a recent report titled “Why the Gold Price Rally Will Continue,” the mega bank said it would not consider gold to be in a bubble until it reached “$2,000” per ounce. (Click here to find the Deutsche Bank report on JSMineset.com.)
According to John Williams at shadowstats.com, in order for gold to equal its 1980 true inflation adjusted $850 price, the yellow metal would have to sell for more than $7,000 per ounce. But don’t expect gold to go up in a straight line. Governments, manipulators on Wall Street and market forces can knock gold down at anytime. Price fluctuations can and will be volatile according to gold experts like Sinclair, but the overall trend is decidedly up.
A very good friend of mine recently wrote me and said, “If there is total collapse of the economy and ultimately – God forbid – the nation, then I doubt that Gold will be worth anything. Bullets and canned food will. They will be very valuable. Bullets will protect you from those who would steal your canned food. Simple, but sadly – true.”
To that I wrote back and said, “To say gold will not be worth anything is to ignore a 5,000 year track record of gold being a store of value and MONEY. Why do you think all central banks hold gold? Yes, ALL hold gold and are buying more. . . The people who have protected their wealth with SOME gold and silver will get through it a lot better than the people who don’t. Good luck with holding only beanie weenies and bullets.”
Don’t take my word that gold is NOT in a bubble. Even former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan warned recently that “fiat money has no place to go but gold.” (Click here for the complete story from the NY Sun.) The value of gold should not be in question. The U.S. dollar is what is overvalued, and the rising price of gold is simply sounding an alarm that the world’s reserve currency is in deep trouble.

ReplyDeleteWhat a moron. Soros is not necessarily saying anything negative about gold when he says it is the "ultimate bubble". He is, in fact, correct. Go back to Exter's pyramid. When all else fails, EVERYONE will rush to gold--it is the ultimate!! When paper currency loses its ability to store 'wealth', people will seek other means to preserve it--GOLD is that ultimate means.
Unless you are selling Gold and making a commission, the reality is that the value of gold is unchanged through out history. It is the value of paper money that is diving!
ReplyDeleteTo say that the current value of gold is going to double in a year, really means your paper is only going to buy 1/2 of the products you can this year. Your going to be doing the same amount of labor (at least 70% of us anyway) but your wages will only purchase 1/2 the items you can today.
Got your mind right yet? its not gold going up, its paper going down. Hyper inflation.
The proper investment strategy in precious metals would be Lead first, Silver second and then Gold if you still have any paper left to get rid of.
Gold is the ultimate money. Nations that involved in World War I and II were asked to pay in gold if they want any products. Similarly, during the fall of Saigon, many South Vietnamese were hoarding gold knowing its currency will die when the North Vietnamese take over.
ReplyDeleteToday, we have governments around the world are devaluing their currencies. Normally we have one, maybe two countries print money out of thin air at a time, but today we have all major and developed nations print money out of thin air. This is the first history of humanity we are witnessing this. The only thing left for the citizens to save their wealth are in precious metals.
Neither their Silver nor their Gold will be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's fury:but by fire of his zeal the whole earth will be devoured, because he will make an extermination indeed a terrible one of all the inhabitants of the earth."Zephaniah 1:18
ReplyDeleteBlah Blah Blah Tom 4:20
ReplyDelete@ 3.46am LOL
ReplyDeleteyou people, its okay now. They printed money enough to save finances. There cant be any kind of of stuff mentioned gold is not money. Real money has always been the dollars we use and it is perfect.
ReplyDeleteWhy did you fear this? The places I see arent bad, the money is not losing value, it can't Thats what governments are for folks. I have cash and its dollars, thats money! Gold? That is irrational, if you like collecting it thats okay but ithas no money value.
- Sam
5:49 - You sound like a complete fool with your ridiculously ignorant and poorly written comments. Don't embarass yourself in front of thousands of readers with your asinine comments. Please take your worthless dollars and go buy yourself an education about - GOLD! The only REAL money is GOLD; always has been, always will be!
ReplyDeleteZephaniah 1:18 is a mis-quote.
ReplyDeleteIt is not "All inhabitants of the earth"
If you care, read for clarity.
"I am puzzled why Soros says negative things about the precious metal when the biggest holding in his $25 billion hedge fund is GOLD!"
ReplyDelete...Quite simple really - he's lookin' for the markets to listen, dump their gold over bubble fears, and BUY MORE!
I don't know about the rest of you, but if after being endlessly urged to buy silver and gold, they are found to be worthless in a crisis, then I will use my third metal, LEAD, to even the score on all the idiot metal advisors. I can always melt the gold into bullets. That would be a great use for "useless" gold.
ReplyDeleteThe problem I have with precious metals right now is that they have already been impacted by inflation, while everything else (except some food) has not. In fact, my fiat goes farther now than 10 years ago. I'm buying the stuff TODAY that I would buy with gold after hyperinflation.
ReplyDeleteNo, 3:10am quoted Zephaniah 1:18 correctly it says all the inhabitance of the earth will experience Jehovah's fury, meaning all those who do not obey him. Gold and Silver will not be of any value nor will it save anyone.
ReplyDeleteGood quote 3:10am!
You a JW?
I personally believe what is going on is people are being lead in the way to put their trust in material things when this is not where all this is heading. The situation is much more dangerous than you may realize. We are looking at a major world dictatorship coming I have a bad feeling about this. I researched how Hitler came to be and what he did and much of what we see is very similar. Except the camps will encompass the whole world. They are setting things up now slowly..
ReplyDelete@9:49: If anybody is setting something up, it'll probably be the Jewry, but I think they are planning to pull out of the US and concentrate all their power in Israel, expanding outwards to create a new major world empire in the Middle East.
ReplyDeleteThey know that the US is the major obstacle, and so they are running it into the ground first so that even if the sleeping giant wakes up it will be too late, and the US military and nation will be unable to do anything. The plan is to have the West vs. Islam so that both are ruined. The West is stronger so Islam falls first, and the Jews step in and strengthen themselves, while the US is further weakened by conflict and financially, and then they pull their power play and finish it off.
The only problem might be that the Arabs and Asians for the most part are already onto the Jews because the Jews spent thousands of years in those areas already.
Anyway as to PMs, lead is indeed your best bet, as well as generators, solar panels, canned foods, etc. Some PMs are good, but do NOT bank EVERYTHING on that. Also, do not keep it in a bank or even bother with a vault, simply use a safe and keep it in your home. Remember the goal isn't to get rich off of it, instead you are just keeping it for emergency. You can easily keep $100k in a safe at home, then put the rest of it in a safe deposit box or vault if you truly have more left over. But those will not be safe because if it ever comes to that the banks and the government will quickly go after those first.
Yes
ReplyDelete"Into the streets they will throw their very silver, and an abhorrent thing their own gold will become. Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's fury. Their souls they will not satisfy and their intestines they will not fill, for it has become a stumbling block causing their error." Ezekiel 7:19
12:04 anyone that keeps anything in a safety deposit box in a bank needs their head examined. One word: CONFISCATION. The British government recently walked into a bank and confiscated all the boxes.
ReplyDeleteGreat; yes, let's use mythology to address the problems we encounter today. Nothing like control of the mindless masses through brimstone and fire... Sheesh, think like free men for once in your pathetic lives...
ReplyDelete"Similarly, during the fall of Saigon, many South Vietnamese were hoarding gold knowing its currency will die when the North Vietnamese take over.
ReplyDeleteBut then they run out of US helicopters to get their corruption loot carrying puppets out , as the US was forced to ditch its helicopters in the ocean as it run away.
Marcos ,puppet plunderer did get a US helicopter ride out with his gold.
Has Ben got his own passport ready ?
But ,anyway in the meantime Bens now got a 'yes we can" helicopter too ,its made of tungsten and paper and flys over wall st .
@4:59: It's useful to have a tiny but there to A) Trick the government into thinking that's all you have and B) To keep some diversification. There are some vault companies that might be a good idea too, but it's an even better idea to have some outside of the country, and most of it in a safe in your own home.
