>>The pace of monetary inflation, QE, and Fed's dollar devaluation has been 15-30% a month or more since April. That, while they are confusing everyone with crap about what they are really doing. Vi -- I'm familiar with John Williams work on M3, and bart's work on M3 and total money (Now and Futures). Can you show me where you are getting the 15 - 30% per month since April? Would appreciate that. Thanks! RJA

Finished my cursory review of gold and silver versus various financial data. Platinum and palladium looking interesting too. pms correlate tightly and any deviations are going to be of considerable interest to me. It's a pity I cant look back further then a few years on some financial indices. I have looked at normally published data that is easily available for free like here for example. tradingblox.com 10 yrs is no problem, I expect a hundred years is available if you pay a bit. I am almost certainly going to subscribe to a data service and I'm open to suggestions. Charts are OK, but doesn't anyone else apart from me find them a bit too... well... two dimensional? Every news byte usually just talks about one thing going up and another going down as if that's all there is to be concerned about. One wonders on what basis the various financial indices are calculated, specially the older ones. I expect everything based on the USD these days I suppose, although numerical analysis can be used to show some trends. I am always trying to grasp a higher plane of understanding. I am a bit dim at times.-g- Anyway it seems prudent to me I should look carefully at prevailing data for any positions I have in precious metals where gold starts to move towards $900 [in 01Feb09 usd's, DX closed that day about 87.5] in either direction. Sorry to so particular on the date, but everything seems to wander around a bit more then normal these days. I have to set my financial gyroscopic compass as it were. So there you are. Any further questions... No? I'm glad to hear that. -g-
