Nice Witch....I'm impressed ...nice little ditty there. Color me a Thoroughgoodesque - "bad to the bone" Yellow Dawg. 1.There is only one road left for the collapsing US Manufacturing base - that by the way; becomes a national asset in times of war ... and that is a weaker dollar. - a weaker dollar is good for gold. 2. There is only one road left to rescue the collapsing global economy... and that is to "RE-INFLATE" it. - ramping money supply and reflating the global/US economy is good for gold. 3. There is only one cure for collapsing US corporate earnings... lower rates/cost of funds and a lower US Dollar, allowing US Corp's to be competitive abroad in selling / exporting goods. - again Gold wins. 4. There is only one thing that can keep a tapped out, negative savings rate US Consumer that is getting laid off & whacked in 10,000 man increments...spending & that's truckloads of poppin' fresh fiat funny money from Uncle Al. - again good for gold. 5. History (and the 3 charts below) has shown us time & time again where money flows in times of crisis...and when/if the Terrorists escalate, or God forbid we see massive casualities from a bio-attack ... - again, gold wins. ***** but, GOLD has allready won; outperforming the market for 30 days, 100 days & 52 weeeks - ie: my earlier post. Unhedged GOLD stocks have STILL returned +72% over the last year; even after this little trading range pullback....
