I do recall David Morgan predicting a sustained deflationary situation throughout the first quarter, and possibly the first half of 2012, and he did so sometime in the 4th quarter of 2011. In a recent update, he predicts silver will again drop below $30. 

I've also just had a look at a few charts, and it looks like a lot of things are headed downwards in the near term including the euro. Come the next FOMC meeting in a little over a week, what do you think is going to happen if easing is again denied?

TANK....and that for the entire market, not just the metals. 

More proof that government denominated coinage isn't any more trustworthy than the generic/private mints.

Reminds me, though, that I have one Brinks silver round marked as 1 Troy Ounce that only weighs out to 29 grams.

That's not how a mafia family works. When all are criminals on the inside there will be no justice, no prosecution. This is simply because inside of power most know where the bodies are buried. Think Corzine will ever be prosecuted? Think again. He knows too much. Has too much dirt on other operators, if he were ever to sing it could bring down dozens of pathetic criminals.

Wayne Madsen investigated Obottom's  past in Chicago. Check it out. When leaders are chosen on the basis of how much they may have to hide then there is never accountability for anyone beneath them. What's her name, the goblin that was chosen for the Supreme Court a year or so ago? Never prosecuted a case or worked as a judge. Zero qualifications. But she is a lesbian with a secret life. Makes her easily blackmailable when push comes to shove. Its how power works, how losers float to the top of the criminal pyramid.

First post but I'm not first   Been lurking since the Watchtower.  Glad I found ya Turd! I had to join today after seeing a post a couple pages back.

seems that netdania price alerts are no longer working

does anyone know of a good program that has price alerts ie. triggers a sound at a set price?

thanks

Interesting, skimmed comments from over the weekend and the impression it left is revealing. Noticed the divisive nature of all the constructs being chewed - in most part we appear to be good, honourable people here and yet can be so far apart from each other.

Nations are a great way to trick you into distancing yourself from other souls on this planet. So are these other abstract concepts: democrat/republican, labour/conservative, religious/not etc (even physical features/characteristics of the human form and sports for fecks sake!?!) - reduces most of us to just bickering as if these are the only choices, or any are more 'right' than another.

Just peel it all back to this thought process: Are you expecting/demanding something from another soul you didn't mutually agree upon? Is it your right to do so? If you arrive at 'no' to the latter then muse: Are you happy allowing violations of the former principle to continue?

As for WWII - if what I've read on t'net is reliable then created by the Rothschilds (research the 'great' Churchill's finances etc), ran by the Rothschilds (info and guns etc to all sides). We all think we're fighting for something noble but mostly just fighting each other for the profit of another. And don't need to tell any around here who created the Fed that is destroying the nation of our US brothers among us.

@IS, nice steer away ;^) My stack is ashamedly dull compared with a lot of you fine people!

Play With Fire And You Get Burned Beheaded… Al-Qaeda Beheads American Al-Qaeda Leader

Posted by Andrea Ryan on Sunday, April 15, 2012, 11:41 AM

If you play with fire you get burned…unless the fire you’re playing with is violent Islamist  radicals.  Then you get beheaded.  Abu Mansour al-Amriki, born in Alabama Omar Hammami and raised a Christian, was beheaded on April 5th by the group al-Shabaab, an ally of al-Qaeda.

Pat Dollard reports,

Excerpted from SomaliLandSun:     The al-Qaeda-allied group al-Shabaab executed US-born jihadist Omar Hammami on April 5th, according to unconfirmed Somali media reports.

Hammami, known as Abu Mansour al-Amriki, said he feared for his life from other al-Shabaab leaders because of strategic and ideological differences in a statement released last month.

According to Somalia’s Gedo Online, Hammami was the only one absent from a recent meeting attended by top al-Shabaab leaders in Baraawe.

I think that is one of the most pernicious ideas to sink into our collective heads - add that to everyone and their cousin Sally getting a masters degree - and the debt slavery meme seems too clear.  And as always the question is cui bono?  And unfortunately it is pretty obvious that the answer is the banks, the banks, the real estate development business, the banks, and the politicians that get bribed to change the zoning for the new developments.  The people get promised help to achieve the dream they never should have had from politicians who can't actually help them ... and the banks get richer.

And I read recently that something approaching 25% of all American adults (not picking on you, Canada is similar but not quite as bad and I don't have numbers) are on some form of anti-depressant or sleeping pill.  Now how did we all get convinced that we couldn't get through the day or night without the help of a pharmaceutical company, and yet fear an indigenous weed that has been used for centuries?  Again cui bono?  Insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies - and this is the beauty of medicare - the incentives are entirely set up for prescription writing instead of intervention as intervention might cost the government something, whereas prescriptions just churn the insurance/pharm mill.  But you get promised the 'free' health care by politicians who have been successfully bribed, oops, lobbied.

grrrrrr

When gold was say $400ish (circa 2005) - what did you expect the world to look like when it hit $1600ish?

Just heard phrases like 'you won't want to see the world when $5k gold' but looking at the charts (plus I see Santa's 'on the precipice of parabolic, $1764 key' observation/prediction) and rate they're printing then another fourfold increase in a much shorter time frame is, well, logical? And the world will have only changed as much between 05 to now (which isn't great but no mad max style at least)?

I guess more importantly is - will the system hold together under such strain - actually reckon if it's on the move like that then wheels are off and who knows where we're heading.

Just saying that the Mex 20's are awful gosh darn pretty that's all.  And the Sovereigns appeal to my sense of history, with the rise and fall of the British Empire all wrapped up in them.  Americans should perhaps be reading up on the fall of various historical empires at every opportunity.

Just chiming in on IS7's conversation starter, not saying one was better than the other.  Wasn't really making a commentary any deeper than that.

There's no one "best" choice for everybody.  Big coins feel great in the palm of your hand.  Small coins might have some advantages down the road if trying to sell privately, or in little bits at a time, perhaps.  Have some of each.  Beyond that, just buy what you like!  

but you want two, so you can hold them together and enjoy the clinking.

and just an after-thought:

Biden could really up his income if he also ran a prostitution ring out of his house.  I believe there is a precedent for this behaviour.
