But I'd like to know what your basis on the USD weakening is. What is you basing Gold being a safe haven off of? Have you ever looked at history or are you just pulling answers out of your[..]? | ||

2. Gadaffi is dead ..and what you're saying is speculation. Here are the facts, and this is what I'm going to leave it at... Gold has an inverse relationship to the USD. It's a hedge, that's all it is. The USD will forever be king because it's simply paper. The only reason Gold and Silver had such a huge run since 2008 is because of the fed constantly printing money to artificially inflate the stock market which devalues the USD and increases its hedge (i.e. Gold). However, the fed can't continue to print the U.S. into a Zimbabwe type scenario. Gold can never be used as a primary currency because it can't support our population as it is a limited resource. And the facts are that during market weakness causes Gold to go down and the USD to go up. History shows and proves this in every single market crash and correction. Even during the recent market correction Gold dropped from $1,900 to like $1,600 in less than a month. And that was just a correction.... | ||

| I bought some SPY puts at the end of the day. Markets aren't going anywhere this week, and I have Calls on a few stocks anyway. You can't go wrong hedging during these times anyways | |

That's not true because it's based on the economy, not whether the fed will continue to print or not. If the economy is not growing (which it's not), people will not invest money in the markets. Companies are not growing their revenues and it will k!ll stocks. The stock market is artificially inflated, it's a bubble... every bubble bursts, just like Gold is. The economy is just one big cycle, another market crash is inevitable whether it's today, tomorrow, or next year. Gold will always have a value, yes that's true. But Gold's true value is not this high. It's artificially inflated along with stocks. And no the dollar will never be a worthless piece of paper because of the fact that we NEED the dollar every single day. Not only is Gold a non renewable resource, but it's simply not realistic to be used for every day things in a growing population. The whole Gold safe haven is complete BS. | ||

| The only reason you guys should be bullish on Gold is if you honestly believe the economy is getting better and/or the valuation of our current stock market is correct. It's as simple as this: If I'm correct, a depression is coming for the U.S.... A depression = A period of deflation because the prices of everything will drop as demand drops. During deflation the USD rises and Gold and other commodities drop. They have inverse relationships... And even if you think the economy will continue to get better, the Fed will have no reason to continue printing money. No matter what, Gold will go back down. It is not practical or logical for commodities to be at this level. | |

Don't just pay attention to equities though, look into commodities. Every should be aware of most of the commodity's inverse relationship to stock market trends, if not go read the commodity index booklet for historical prices. I will be shorting some of the euromarket instruments, in particular eurodollar futures, as soon as my software gives me the signal. | ||

In the 2008 market crash Gold fell from over $1,000 an ounce to below $700. The Dow fell from about 14,000 to 6,500. Dow lost just over half of it's value, Gold lost about 30 - 35%. Since the 2008 crash the Dow went from 6,500 to just under 13,000. It about doubled in value. While Gold went from about $700 to $1,900. Up about 170% since the 2008 crash.... In the recent correction Gold fell from about $1,900 to $1,600 losing about 15% of its value. The Dow fell from about 12,700 to 10,600...losing about 20% of its value. The difference now is that the Gold/Silver run has actually become a bubble. They are extremely overvalued which is why you saw it drop $300 an ounce in 3 weeks. The same thing happened to Silver back in May. It lost 20% of its value in like a week..and it still hasn't recovered. So during the next crash Gold will lose more than 30-35% of its value unlike the last one. Gold will go back below $1,000 an ounce IMO. Probably towards $700-800. Gold has a direct relationship to equities, wether you believe it or not. You should really do your research and look at historical charts instead of listening to the news [pic] | ||

I'm not fond of listening to analysts or CNBC for that matter because they tell us what they're paid to tell us, not what we want to hear...but hedge fund managers are saying gold will go back up as the equity market goes down. I think it'd be wrong for us to say they don't know what they're talking about, but would you have a clue on why they would say such a thing? I don't plan to get too complex in this market anyway. Just usual put positions and I won't even be doing that in stocks. Just the SPY and DIA. | ||

And they can just simply be wrong. Hell Warren Buffet had a stake in Goldman Sachs when it was at like $150...now look at it. He lost billions on that. Hedge fund managers thought banks were good buys too and they've done nothing but go down. | |||
