>a bear market coupled with a private sector debt wipe-out will ultimately make short shrift with the 'budget surplus' as well. Which would mean a currency collapse and therefore a reevaluation of tangible assets including land and gold (and antiques and great works of art.) However, the prices on great works of art may already be inflated because of the "bubble economy", and the subjective debate about what constitutes great or important art. GOLD- So long in disfavor, which of course makes for the obvious contrarian point of view. NO ONE REALLY BELIEVES THAT GOLD CAN GO UP. My own husband tells me he will never buy gold, unless he can drape it on my body, which is fine with me. However, I have proven to myself that I have a personal bent to be an opportunist in the markets. Therefore, Heinz, I have begun to follow your lead in buying gold stocks. Currencies backed by debt don't really seem that stable...and with all the planets in Taurus....the world will be looking for a stable place to be. There's really nothing worth buying now.....unless it is cheap...GOLD is 'cheap'. WOW...so I bought some TVX and HM...I really like the monthly charts. Thanks, Heinz for pointing me in that sage direction. :))
