there is no mania going around...spoke to a friend yesterday who told
me cab drivers,secretaries,and everybody else is into buying and
talking about stocks...he himself told me that gold was dead..that
his friend Arch Crawford has been wrong wrong wrong and that I should
get into the market...another friend told me to get into safe index
funds..
today I heard Hugh Johnson,Peter Munk, and John bollinger say that
gold is coming back..
I totally agree with what you wrote...(also thanks to John!! and Mike!!)...
somebody whom I respect greatly yesterday told me that the US corporations were getting rid of liabilities by buying in their shares..(I will look like a huge fool if the Dow goes to 20,000 next
year and interest rates head down to five)
.I questioned that way of viewing it...why buy at these high
prices...why not float more debt with such low interest rates and
invest the rest in short term treasuries...so many wise people are
saying that the blue chips are overvalued and they are having a very hard time in good conscious continuing to buy..
also Australia really does seem quite upside down...great...they will
be able to collect interest when they buy bonds with the money they
made from selling their gold reserves...wonder if the interest will
cover all the lost revenues from so many workers who will be out of
a job and will pay no taxes and will shop less and cause less revenue
from stores ad infinitum...wonder who these central bankers are
really protecting...(maybe they like to keep the IMF etc employed and
create hardships in underdeveloped countries so that they can look like the good guys and "bail them out" after tanking them...(oops)
even the Bank of Japan's judgment leaves me dazzled...if they have
already lost 22 billion by buying our assets...what are they aiming
for...if they started announcing that there were going to buy gold
that would put a floor in for the price of gold...bring money back
into their economy instead of just having their money earning interest
abroad and funding the US debt which should later clubber them MORE and just start paying more attention to the emerging countries near them and possibly subsidize their corporations to make
their goods very competitive instead of subsidizing the American government..
I know...keep it simple and dispense with fundamentals and just follow
momentum investing and hope you are nearest the door...everybody knows
but nobody cares?
