Re: The GOLD scream room
Tomorrow is the last trading day of the month! Let's see what gold can do!
I still find the James Rickards portfolio fascinating.
Re: The GOLD scream room
Well Tortoise, you must have posted the gif and got yesterday's good gold thread locked! It was great. There were a bunch of posts that presented well spoken, logical, factual reasons for including gold in a portfolio. More than I think I've ever seen on that forum. BUT, it got a little too logical and they locked the thread. Thank goodness there was time to mention guns, ammo, canned beans, and the apocalypse before it got closed.
Re: The GOLD scream room
I think the locked thread is a different one. The one where I posted the GIF is still open:

So it looks like we didn't quite close at $2,000, guys. But we came very close!

LOL the flintlock pistol and his grin just makes it.
In my picture I imagine that's me right in the middle of me blabbering "AND THEN IN 1971 NIXON TOOK US OFF THE GOLD STANDARD. WE'RE BEING ROBBED OF OUR WEALTH DON'T YOU SEE????"

My skylight’s leaking this morning under the hammering of a tropical storm, but the gold price isn’t too shabby.

Re: The GOLD scream room
Had that ever prior happened to you? I would have loved to have had skylights but that potential leaking problem is what has forever held me back.

Re: The GOLD scream room
Unreal!!!
With stocks and bonds both up, there's no rebalance happening anytime soon. But, my portfolio is up over 6% since July 1. Incredible...but when is the other shoe going to drop??
