I'm thinking June 8th...

Really. Mid-June. Might as well pick a specific date. ;)
Pick it with a dart and a calendar. He said June 15. I'm going to be in awe of him on June 15 or LMAO.

Why be in awe if you acknowledge people can be right by accident?
There’re more forecastors than calendar dates so, someone is going to place an ad sometime soon, like:

Even better, totally plausible. I’m switching my forecast to 6/31.

No one seems to be excited about the latest surge.
Maybe that's good because it will reduce the pain when it goes back down?
But on the other hand, the PP is probably outperforming the stock market over the past couple of weeks...

Yep, gold and TLT are surging simply because I'm making my first purchases of both tomorrow. So don't worry, after I DCA in over the next 4 months it will promptly plummet, haha.

So now you're horning in on my racket of being a contrary indicator?
I guess now I'll have to sell so it will go up!

It's still up $30 this year so far.

If it does that every year, I'll be in pretty good shape.

I’ll be in good shape if PHYS goes up. It’s been sitting at a loss for most of 9 years now.

I got a Google alert that "Hulbert Gold Newsletter Sentiment Index HGNSI" was bullish so I sold some ETF yesterday. When it gets bearish, I buy. Love Google alerts

Strong dollar. Gold’s hanging in there, though.

Thanks.

It will be an even better morning if I can get the support people at Intel to get their server set up properly so I can test my program!

Because they are following rules that don't make any sense.
I've been temporarily banned long in the past for "political" posts that weren't political at all.
They have a very odd definition of "political".

It is both refreshing and infuriating. Since they're not the only investing forum, I like that I can go there and just read pure investing theory. It's also nice to know I can go elsewhere for discussions of the minimum wage, thoughts on what is driving the Fed, and how we never went to the moon.

I don't recall exactly, probably something about the Federal Reserve.
It was a long time ago.

And yet again, what is it 3/4 years now? Bump against ~$1350 and repelled. Getting old.
