<< Even when "the trend" is based in near pure evil? >> Pure evil??? Although I don't agree with your assessment, I feel that this country is becoming increasingly corrupt, and I am amazed that this country, against all odds, became such a great bastion of freedom and democracy. << Then the next question, if one is willing to play in a manipulated market, when will be the correct time to make "the turn"??? >> It's the only game in town. Either you play or you sit. Investors have become used to seeing double digit gains in their retirement or cash portfolios. The pouring of huge amounts of liquidity into the markets has caused bubbles of great wealth in people's pockets and retirement funds, and in government coffers. Not too bad, right? Unless it results in hyperinflation in years to come. Unfortunately, WHEN things turn around it may get pretty bloody. Personally, right now I am mostly in cash and am waiting for the right time to get back into gold. I am probably going to wait until Milhouse's next assessment during the week of the 10th, among others. OTOH, if you know the rules of the game, such as that gold is being artificially held down by the action of the Fed and the CB's, why not become a player? |
